IBM 9077 SP Switch Router: Get Connected to the SP Switch

Now it is time to look at the GRF 400:

1. The following screen shot gives you the minimum required data to be put

into /etc/bridged.conf:

Remarks: On the GRF 400, bridging was never defined before, so we
have to create /etc/bridged.conf from a template. Just jump to the end of
the template and type in the data. The

:wq!

is there to remind you how to

end editing of the file. We give an

n

(no) as answer to the last question, as

the ATM ports are already in use and therefore cannot be modified. So we
need to

reboot

the GRF, and takes care of the relevant settings anyway.

2. The following changes need to be applied to /etc/grifconfig.conf:

#ga020 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.0 - mtu 9180

#ga0280 10.1.2.2 255.255.255.0 10.1.2.1

bg1 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.0 - mtu 9180

Remarks: The data for the

ga020

and

ga0280

interface needs to be

commented out and the line for

bg1

bridge_group

needs to be put in. The

netmask entry is mandatory for

bridge_group

entries.

3. Finally, bridging requires four entries in the /etc/gratm.conf file:

Traffic_Shape name=high_speed_high_quality \

peak=155000 sustain=155000 burst=2048 qos=high

This following entries remains the same as is the basic configuration:

Interface ga020 traffic_shape=high_speed_high_quality \

bridge_method=llc_encapsulated

Interface ga0280 traffic_shape=high_speed_high_quality \

bridge_method=llc_encapsulated

# bredit
Could not find default config file ’/etc/bridged.conf’.
This seems to be the first time bridged is being configured.
Do you want to use the template configuration file ? [y/n] [n] y

port ga020 ga0280;
};

:wq!

Update /etc/bridged.conf with these changes? [y/n] [n] y
