Virtual Interfaces
The Cisco uBR7200 Series supports the following virtual interface feature, primarily in the
Cisco IOS 12.3 BC release train:
•

Virtual Interface Bundling on the Cisco uBR-MC28/U BPE
Cisco IOS Release 12.3(13a)BC introduces support for virtual interface bundling on the Cisco
uBR72046VXR universal broadband router and the Cisco uBR-MC28/U Broadband Processing Engine
(BPE).
In prior Cisco IOS releases, cable interface bundling was limited to physical interfaces as master or slave
interfaces, and
show
commands did not supply bundle information.
Virtual interface bundling removes the prior concepts of master and slave interfaces, and introduces
these additional changes:
•
Virtual interface bundling uses
bundle interface
and
bundle members
instead of master and slave
interfaces.
•
The virtual bundle interface is virtually defined, as with IP loopback addresses, for example.
•
Virtual interface bundling supports bundle information in multiple
show ip interface
commands.
Virtual interface bundling prevents loss of connectivity on physical interfaces should there be a failure,
problematic online insertion and removal (OIR) of one line card in the bundle, or erroneous removal of
configuration on the master interface.
Virtual interface bundling supports and governs the following Layer 3 settings for the bundle member
interfaces:
•
IP address
•
IP helper-address
•
source-verify and lease-timer functions
•
cable dhcp-giaddr (The giaddr field is set to the IP address of the DHCP client.)
•
Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM)
•
Access control lists (ACLs)
•
Sub-interfaces
Note
This virtual interface for the bundle should always remain on (enabled with
no shutdown
), but the
Cisco CMTS provides warning messages prior to execution of the
shutdown
command.
