Use the applicable show commands on the router to verify that DHCP relay has been activated to reach the correct scope for each VLAN.

For more information about performing these general configuration steps, see the regular documentation for the type of router used in your network.

4Configure the network access devices:

a Configure static routes to all the networks behind the core router. b Configure the switch management VLAN, if necessary.

c Configure and enable SSH on the switch.

dConfigure the Nortel SNAS 4050 portal Virtual IP address (pVIP)/subnet.

eConfigure port tagging, if applicable.

For a Layer 2 switch, the uplink ports must be tagged to allow them to participate in multiple VLANs.

fCreate the port-based VLANs.

These VLANs are configured as VoIP, Red, Yellow, and Green VLANs in step i and step j.

gConfigure DHCP relay and IP routing if the switch is used in Layer 3 mode.

h(Optional) Configure the Red, Yellow, Green, and VoIP filters.

The filters are configured automatically as predefined defaults when you configure the Red, Yellow, and Green VLANs (step j). Configure the filters manually only if your particular system setup requires you to modify the default filters. You can modify the filters after NSNA is enabled.

iConfigure the VoIP VLANs.

jConfigure the Red, Yellow, and Green VLANs, associating each with the applicable filters.

kConfigure the NSNA ports.
