Chapter 5 Site-Specific Configuration
Configuring the System for Your Site
4. The switch IP and in-band IP management addresses may each be zero. If
the CPU IP address (or switch IP address) and the in-band management
IP address are in the same class, their masks must be the same.
Note:
If the CPU IP address is zero and the ssid file on the CPU2 mod-
ule is corrupted, the system cannot access the Ethernet.
5. If the CPU IP, switch IP, and in-band IP addresses are not zero, then they
must be valid IP addresses.
6. If the switch IP address is not zero, then the system will respond to the
switch IP address; otherwise, the system will respond to the the CPU IP
address on the Ethernet port.
7. In a redundant system, both CPU2 modules must have a unique CPU IP
address. They will have the same switch IP address and in-band IP
address if either address is defined. After initial setup, the IP settings can
be modified only on the active CPU2 module.
Rules for Configuring IP Address Masks
1. The CPU IP address and switch IP address share the same IP mask.
2. The CPU IP address (or switch IP address) and in-band IP address masks
are independent of each other, as long as the CPU IP address (or switch IP
address) and in-band IP address are in different networks.
3. If the CPU IP address (or switch IP address) and in-band IP address are in
the same class, then their masks must be the same.
4. The CPU IP address and switch IP address must always be on a different
subnet from the in-band IP address; CPU IP and switch IP addresses can-
not be on the same subnet as the in-band IP address.

OAM Properties
The Master ATM Address and OAM related data panel allows you to enter
and display information about the master ATM address, the loopback, and
OAM debouncing period.
Perform the steps in the following procedure to configure the loopback
parameters on modules that support loopback configuration.
Begin
1
Select the values for the fields in the Master ATM Address and OAM
related data panel as described in Table 5-6.
