When a VLAN has DHCP snooping and Option 82 relay enabled, an Ethernet interface
can be directly added to the VLAN membership, but using a tag action to associate an
Ethernet interface to such a VLAN is not supported.
BPDU Guard and RSTP cannot be enabled on an interface, simultaneously.
For Policy maps:
For Trunk interfaces, any policy map assignment is allowed.
For Edge and Access interfaces, if a policy map contains a two-tag classification, the
edge or access link must have a tag-action that adds the outer tag being matched by
the class rule.
For an RSTP network, Calix recommends setting the following parameters as shown:
The VLAN IGMP Mode = snoop-suppress or proxy
The IGMP profile Router Learning Mode = static-dynamic
The IGMP profile Router Solicit On Topology Change = Y (enabled)
The interface NOT be designated as a static router port through the VLAN
membership.
The Interface Quality Audit (IQA) function periodically checks the number of File Check
Sequence (FCS) errors received as a percentage of total frames received on an interface.
An interface that exceeds the provisioned thresholds can be set to generate an alarm,
switch traffic to an alternate path, or force the interface to an OOS state where operator
intervention is required to bring the interface to an operational state by manually
disabling the interface, and then re-enabling the interface.
LAG interfaces:
The ports in a LAG must be either all GE or all 10GE.
For GE ports:
♦
up to 8 GE ports per LAG
♦
up to 6 LAGs per shelf
For 10GE ports:
♦
up to 4 10GE ports per LAG
♦
up to 2 LAGs per shelf
For 1GE LAG groups, the connectors should be of the same type: SFP or SFP+, not
both.
All VLAN associations must be removed from a LAG before the LAG can be
deleted.
Before a port can be assigned to a LAG interface, the port's default associated
interface must be disabled. When a port is assigned to a LAG, the LAG interface
provisioning (for example, VLAN membership) applies to the port. See
Configuring an
Ethernet Port
(on page
21
) for details on how to add ports to the LAG interface.
For Modular Chassis (MC) systems, LAG and RSTP interfaces are only supported on
the Modular Chassis Controller (MCC) shelf.
