Chapter 4 Configuring the PA-POS-1OC3

Configuring the Interfaces

To configure the new interfaces, proceed to the “Configuring the Interfaces” section on page 4-2.

Configuring the Interfaces

After you verify that the new PA-POS-1OC3 is installed correctly (the ENABLED LED goes on), use the privileged-level configure command to configure the new interfaces. Have the following information available:

•IP addresses, if you plan to configure the interface for IP routing

•MTU size

•Framing mode

•Transmit clock source

•Loopback modes (if testing is required)

If you installed a new PA-POS-1OC3 or if you want to change the configuration of an existing interface, you must enter configuration mode to configure the new interfaces. If you replaced a PA-POS-1OC3 that was previously configured, the system recognizes the new interfaces and brings each of them up in their existing configurations.

For a summary of the configuration options available and instructions for configuring the interfaces on

aPA-POS-1OC3, refer to the appropriate configuration publications listed in the “Related Documentation” section on page viii.

You execute configuration commands from the privileged level of the EXEC command interpreter, which usually requires password access. (See the “Using the EXEC Command Interpreter” section on page 4-1for an explanation of the privileged level of the EXEC.) Contact your system administrator, if necessary, to obtain password access.

On power-up, the OC-3 interface on a new PA-POS-1OC3 is shut down. To enable the interfaces, you must enter the no shutdown command in configuration mode. (See “Performing a Basic Configuration” section on page 4-6.) When the OC-3 interface is enabled (taken out of shutdown) with no additional arguments, the default interface configuration file parameters look like those in Table 4-1.
