Nortel Networks 4050 Enter network mask 255.255.255.0 mask, Enter Vlan tag id or zero for no Vlan

54Chapter 2 Initial setup

In a two-armed configuration, you are specifying the port you want to use for Nortel SNAS 4050 management traffic.

Note: You can later convert a one-armed configuration into a two-armed one by adding a new interface to the cluster and assigning an unused port to that interface. The new interface will be used exclusively for client portal traffic. For information about adding a new interface, see “Configuring host interfaces using the CLI” on page 469 or “Configuring host interfaces using the SREM” on page 508. For information about assigning ports to an interface, see “Configuring host ports using the CLI” on page 472 or “Configuring host ports using the SREM” on page 520.

4Specify the RIP for this device. This IP address will be assigned to Interface 1.

Enter IP address for this machine (on management interface): <IPaddr>

The RIP must be unique on the network and must be within the same subnet as the MIP.

5Specify the network mask for the RIP on Interface 1.

Enter network mask [255.255.255.0]: <mask>

6If the core router attaches VLAN tag IDs to incoming packets, specify the VLAN tag ID used.

Enter VLAN tag id (or zero for no VLAN) [0]:

If you do not specify a VLAN tag id (in other words, you accept the default value of zero), the traffic will not be VLAN tagged. When configuring the network access devices in Layer 2 configurations, ensure that you add the uplink ports to the Nortel SNAS 4050 management VLAN, for traffic between the Nortel SNAS 4050 and the network access device.
