IPmux-11 Ver. 2.00 Configuring IPmux-11 for Management 4-7
Configuration Example

Local Management

Figure 4-6 illustrates how to manage a local IPmux-11 from an NMS connected via
Ethernet user port 2.
VLAN tagging mode of the Ethernet user ports is configured to Double Tag
User and management traffic are separated by different VLANs
Manager location is set to User2-Eth3.
IPmux-11 separates management traffic sent to the local device MAC and marked
by VLAN 1 from the user traffic marked by VLAN 100. The management traffic is
processed by the local IPmux-11. The user traffic is sent to its destination via the
network interface.

Remote Management

Figure 4-7 illustrates how to manage a local and remote IPmux-11 units from an
NMS connected via Ethernet user port 2 of the local device.
VLAN tagging mode of the Ethernet user ports of both IPmux-11 is configured
to Double Tag
User and management traffic are separated by different VLANs
Manager location of the local IPmux-11 is set to User2-Eth3.
Manager location of the remote IPmux-11 is set to Network-Eth1.
IPmux-11 separates management traffic marked by VLAN 1 from the user traffic
marked by VLAN 100. When the local IPmux-11 detects that the management
traffic has been sent to the MAC of the remote unit, it forwards the traffic to its
destination via the network interface.
The remote IPmux-11 processes the management traffic received via its network
interface and responds to the management requests.
