Chapter 4 Configuring Interfaces on the ML-Series Card

Basic Fast Ethernet and POS Interface Configuration

 

Command

Purpose

 

 

 

Step 4

ML_Series(config-if)# [no] duplex {full

Sets full duplex, half duplex, or autonegotiate

 

half auto}

mode.

 

 

Step 5

 

 

ML_Series(config-if)# flowcontrol send {on

(Optional) Sets the send flow control value for an

 

off desired}

interface. Flow control works only with port-level

 

 

policing. ML-Series card Fast Ethernet port flow

 

 

control is IEEE 802.3x compliant.

Step 6

 

 

ML_Series(config-if)# no shutdown

Enables the interface by preventing it from

 

 

shutting down.

Step 7

 

 

ML_Series(config)# end

Returns to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 8

 

 

ML_Series# copy running-config

(Optional) Saves your configuration changes to

 

startup-config

the flash database.

 

 

 

Example 4-1shows how to do the initial configuration of a Fast Ethernet interface with an IP address, autonegotiated speed, and autonegotiated duplex.

Example 4-1 Initial Configuration of a Fast Ethernet Interface

ML_Series(config)# interface fastethernet 1

ML_Series(config-if)#ip address 10.1.2.4 255.0.0.0

ML_Series(config-if)# speed auto

ML_Series(config-if)# duplex auto

ML_Series(config-if)# no shutdown

ML_Series(config-if)# end

ML_Series# copy running-config startup-config

Configuring the POS Interfaces

Encapsulation changes on POS ports are allowed only when the interface is in a manual shutdown (ADMIN_DOWN). For advanced POS interface configuration, see Chapter 5, “Configuring POS on the ML-Series Card.”

Note

The initial state of the ONS 15310-CL and ONS 15310-MA ML-Series card POS port is inactive. A POS

 

interface command of no shutdown is required to carry traffic on the SONET circuit.

 

 

 

 

To configure the IP address, bridge group, or encapsulation for the POS interface, perform the following

 

procedure, beginning in global configuration mode:

 

 

 

 

 

Command

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

ML_Series(config)# interface pos number

Activates interface configuration mode to

 

 

configure the POS interface.

Step 2

 

 

ML_Series(config-if)# {ip address

Sets the IP address and subnet mask.

 

ip-address subnet-mask bridge-group

or

 

bridge-group-number}

 

 

Assigns a network interface to a bridge group.

15310-CL, 15310-MA specifications

Cisco Systems has established itself as a leader in the networking domain, offering a wide array of solutions to meet the needs of modern businesses. Among its impressive product lineup are the Cisco 15310-CL and 15310-MA routers, designed to provide advanced network performance and reliability.

The Cisco 15310-CL is a versatile platform that primarily serves as a carrier-class router aimed at supporting high-speed data and voice services. It is built to handle the demands of large enterprises and service providers, offering a robust design that ensures maximum uptime and performance. One of its standout features is its modular architecture, which enables users to customize their configurations based on specific application needs. This scalability allows for future expansion without the need for a complete hardware overhaul.

Key technologies integrated into the Cisco 15310-CL include high-density Ethernet interfaces and a comprehensive suite of Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocol support. The device is capable of supporting multiple types of connections, including TDM, ATM, and Ethernet. This flexibility makes it an ideal choice for organizations that require seamless migration between various service types. Moreover, with features such as MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) support and advanced Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms, the router ensures that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth and low latency required for optimal performance.

In contrast, the Cisco 15310-MA focuses on access solutions, providing a cost-effective entry point for businesses looking to enhance their network capabilities. It is well-suited for smaller offices or branch locations that need reliable connectivity without the expense and complexity associated with larger systems. The device supports a range of access methods and provides essential features like firewall capabilities, VPN support, and comprehensive security measures to protect sensitive data.

Both models benefit from Cisco's commitment to security and manageability, offering features like enhanced encryption protocols and user authentication mechanisms that help safeguard networks against threats. Additionally, they can be managed through Cisco’s intuitive software tools, simplifying configuration and monitoring tasks for IT administrators.

The Cisco 15310-CL and 15310-MA are ideal solutions for businesses seeking to enhance their network infrastructure, ensuring firms can keep pace with evolving technology demands while maintaining a focus on security and performance. Their combination of advanced features, modular capabilities, and robust support makes them valuable assets in the networking landscape.
