General PXM1E Configuration Procedures
Step 5
To enable or disable dynamic address registration, enter the following command:
mgx8830a.1.PXM.a >
cnfaddrreg
<
portid
> <
yes
|
no
>
Enter yes to enable dynamic address configuration or enter no to disable it. The default is yes.
Step 6
Enter the following command to define an ATM prefix for a port:
mgx8830a.1.PXM.a >
addprfx
<
portid
> <
atm-prefix
>
Replace portid using the format slot:bay.line:ifNum.
describes these parameters.
Replace atm-prefix with the 13-byte ATM address prefix that you want the dynamically assigned address
to use. Specify the address prefix using 26 hexadecimal digits. The range for each digit is 0 through F
(0 through 9, A, B, C, D, E, and F).
Note
The address prefix you choose should conform to the address plan for your network. For more
information on address planning, refer to the Cisco PNNI Network Planning Guide for MGX and
SES Products.
Tip
Each hexadecimal digit represents 1 nibble (four bits), and each pair of hexadecimal digits
represents a byte. There are 13 pairs of hexadecimal digits in the prefix, or 26 total digits.
Step 7
Up the port you configured with the uppnport command. For example:
mgx8830a.1.PXM.a >
uppnport 1:2.3:1
Step 8
To verify the proper ATM prefix configuration for a port, re-enter the dspprfx command.
Step 9
To see a dynamically assigned address that uses the prefix, enter the dspilmiaddr <port> command.
Starting ILMI with the Default or Existing Values
The upilmi command starts ILMI on a port with the existing ILMI configuration, which is the default
configuration when ILMI has never been configured on that port. Although ILMI starts automatically
when you configure it with the cnfilmi command, you might have to bring down ILMI with the dnilmi
command to make a configuration change such as adding an ILMI prefix. To start or restart ILMI with
the upilmi command, use the following procedure.
Step 1
Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1 privileges or higher.
Step 2
If you do not know the interface number and partition ID for the port on which you are starting ILMI,
enter the dspparts command as shown in the following example.
mgx8830a.1.PXM.a >
dspparts

Tip
To see the relationship between interface numbers and lines, enter the dspports command.
