Chapter 15 Configuring Resilient Packet Ring on the ML-Series Card

Delete an ML-Series Card from an RPR

Deleting an ML-Series Card from an RPR

To delete an ML-Series card from an RPR, complete the following procedure:

 

Step 1

 

Start a Cisco IOS CLI session for the ML-Series card on the first adjacent node. This is Adjacent Node

 

 

 

 

 

1 in Figure 15-9.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 2

 

Complete the following Cisco IOS configuration on the ML-Series card in the first adjacent node,

 

 

 

 

 

beginning in global configuration mode:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a.

Router(config)# interface pos

Enters interface configuration mode for the POS port at the

 

 

 

 

interface-number

end of the circuit directly connected to the Delete Node.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

b.

Router(config-if)# shutdown

Closes the interface, which initiates the RPR wrap.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 3

 

Start a Cisco IOS CLI session for the ML-Series card in Adjacent Node 2, as shown in Figure 15-9.

 

Step 4

 

Complete the following Cisco IOS configuration on the Adjacent Node 2 ML-Series card, beginning in

 

 

 

 

 

global configuration mode:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a.

Router(config)# interface pos

Enters interface configuration mode for the POS port at the

 

 

 

 

interface-number

end of the circuit directly connected to the Delete Node.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

b.

Router(config-if)# shutdown

Closes the interface.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 5

 

Log into Adjacent Node 1 with CTC.

 

Step 6

 

Double-click the ML-Series card in Adjacent Node 1.

 

 

 

 

 

The card view appears.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 7

 

Click the Circuits tab.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 8

 

Click the Circuits subtab.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 9

 

Identify the appropriate STS circuit by looking under the source column and destination column for the

 

 

 

 

 

circuit entry that matches the POS ports at the endpoints of the first circuit to be deleted.

 

 

 

 

 

The circuit entry is in node-name/card-slot/port-numberformat, such as Node-1/s12(ML100T)/pPOS-0.

 

Step 10

 

Click the circuit entry to highlight it.

 

Step 11

 

Click Delete.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A confirmation dialog box appears.

 

Step 12

 

Click Yes.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 13

 

Verify that Ethernet connectivity still exists between the Ethernet access ports on Adjacent Node 1 and

 

 

 

 

 

Adjacent Node 2 by using a test set.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note

 

The SPR interface and the Ethernet interfaces on the ML-Series card must be in a bridge group in order

 

 

 

 

 

for RPR traffic to bridge the RPR.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 14

 

Log into Adjacent Node 2 with CTC.

 

Step 15

 

Double-click the ML-Series card in Adjacent Node 2.

 

 

 

 

 

The card view appears.
