Configuring MCT

20

The <vlan id> variable specifies the VLAN ID. The value can be from 1 through 4090.

The range of VLAN IDs above 4090 has been reserved for internal control purposes.

The <vlan-name> variable specifies the VLAN name and can be up to 255 characters long.

NOTE

In lower versions, the <vlan-name> variable can accept only 32 characters. The VLAN
configuration is denied if you configure more than 32 characters for the VLAN name.

Use the no form of the command to delete the VLAN from the configuration.

2. Add ports to the VLAN and specify if the ports are tagged or untagged.

BigIron RX(config-vlan-4090)# tagged ethernet 1/1 to 1/2

Syntax: [no] tagged ethernet <slot/port> to <slot/port>

The ethernet <slot/port> parameter specifies the range of ports that are to be tagged.

3. Configure a virtual routing interface on each IP protocol VLAN, and then configure the

appropriate IP routing parameters on each of the virtual routing interfaces.

BigIron RX(config-vlan-4090)# router-interface ve 100

Syntax: [no] router-interface ve <id>

The <id> variable specifies the ID of the virtual routing interface.

Assigning the host name (optional)

To configure a host name, enter the following command.

BigIron RX(config)# hostname TOR-A

Syntax: [no] hostname <string>

The <string> variable specifies the name of the host and can be up to 255 alphanumeric
characters and contain blank spaces.

Enabling the interfaces

By default, all the ports are enabled on the BigIron RX devices. To disable the port 1/1, enter the
following commands.

BigIron RX(config)# interface ethernet 1/1

BigIron RX(config-if-e10000-1/1)# no enable

Syntax: [no] enable

Assigning a port name (optional)

You can assign a port name to physical ports, virtual routing interfaces, and loopback interfaces to
identify interfaces on the network. To assign a name to ports 1/6 and 1/7, enter the following
commands.

BigIron RX(config)# interface ethernet 1/6

BigIron RX(config-if-e10000-1/6)# port-name CEP-PC

BigIron RX(config-if-e10000-1/6)# enable

BigIron RX(config)# interface ethernet 1/7

BigIron RX(config-if-e10000-1/7)# port-name to-L3-ECMP

BigIron RX(config-if-e10000-1/7)# enable
