Appendix C Configuring In-Band Management
Using the Routed Connection Configuration
Setting PVC
Connections for
Routed Connection
Configuration
Assume that the VPI:VCI for the connection between node A and B is VPIab:
VCIab, etc. Also assume that the Ethernet IP addresses of all nodes except
node A do not lie in the NMS station’s network address range.
Perform the steps in the following procedure to set PVC connections for a
routed connection.
Steps to Setting PVC Connections for Routed Connection
Begin
Configuration
1
Configure the primary IP address for in-band management on the CPU
module of the main router PSAX system (Node A) using the console
interface:
Use
[Site Specific Configuration]->[In-Band Management]
menu.
Example:
Primary IP Address: 020.001.001.001
Primary IP Mask: 255.000.000.000
The connection downstream from Node A to subtrees should have a mask
greater than 255.0.0.0 if they go to network 20.0.0.0. For example, mask
255.255.0.0 is assigned for downstream connection.
2
Configure the primary and backup IP addresses for in-band
management on the CPU module of the intermediate router PSAX
system (Node B) using the console interface:
Example:
Primary IP Address:020.001.001.002
Primary IP Mask: 255.255.000.000
Connections downstream from Node B to the subtrees should have a mask
greater than for the connection downstream on parent Node A (255.255.0.0)
if they go to network 20.0.0.0. For example, mask 255.255.255.0 is assigned
for downstream connection.
3
Configure the primary IP Address for in-band management on the CPU
module of main router PSAX system (Node C) using the console
interface:
Use
[Site Specific Configuration]->[In-Band Management]
menu.
Example:
Primary IP Address: 020.001.001.003
Primary IP Mask: 255.255.255.000
Connections downstream from Node C to subtrees will go directly to end-
system PSAX systems and should have mask greater than or equal to that for
connections on parent Node B (255.255.255.0) if they go to network
20.0.0.0. For example, mask 255.255.255.0 is assigned for downstream
connections
