RI Configuration Example
Router#show interface rpr-ieee 0
RPR-IEEE0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is RPR-IEEE Channelized SONET, address is 0019.076c.7f72 (bia 0019.076c.7f72)
The MAC address of the secondary peer is 0019.076c.7f72. The configuration would now appear as
rpr-ieee ri mode 0019.076c.7f72.
Example 26-11Primary ML-Series Card Configuration with Connection to Switch
interface rpr-ieee0
no ip address
rpr-ieee ri mode
rpr-ieee ri foreign
no shutdown
In the above example, after rpr-ieee ri mode you need to insert the MAC address of the primary peer. To
fetch this address, log in to the primary peer ML-Series card and enter the command show interface
rpr-ieee as follows:
Router#show interface rpr-ieee 0
RPR-IEEE0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is RPR-IEEE Channelized SONET, address is 0019.076c.7f73 (bia 0019.076c.7f73)
The MAC address of the primary peer is 0019.076c.7f73. The configuration would now appear as
rpr-ieee ri mode 0019.076c.7f73.
Example 26-12Secondary ML-Series Card Configuration with Connection to Switch
interface rpr-ieee0
no ip address
rpr-ieee ri mode
rpr-ieee ri foreign
no shutdown
In the above example, after rpr-ieee ri mode you need to insert the MAC address of the secondary peer.
To fetch this address, log in to the secondary peer ML-Series card and enter the command show
interface rpr-ieee as follows:
Router#show interface rpr-ieee 0
RPR-IEEE0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is RPR-IEEE Channelized SONET, address is 0019.076c.7f74 (bia 0019.076c.7f74)
The MAC address of the secondary peer is 0019.076c.7f74. The configuration would now appear as
rpr-ieee ri mode 0019.076c.7f74.
Note In Figure 26-8 Cards A and C are primary cards, and B and D are secondary cards. Cards B and D are
peers. Therefore, to configure Card A’s MAC address, you need to configure Card B's RPR MAC
address. Similarly, to configure Card C’s MAC address, you need to configure Card D’s RPR MAC
address.
