3.1.2 Auxiliary IP Configuration

The Auxiliary IP is an additional IP address that is provided for testing and connectivity only. It allows the
9145E to be PINGed without allowing Telnet or Management access that could be disruptive. The Auxiliary
IP rate is limited to 500 pings per second. This allows connectivity and rudimentary performance testing
from subscriber/user VLANs without compromising network security.

Configure the parameters by typing the corresponding number and pressing Enter. Enter data or press the
Space Bar to cycle through the configuration choices for the parameters described below.

Figure 3-4 Auxiliary IP configuration Menu

1. Auxiliary IP Address - Sets the 9145E Auxiliary IP Address.

Auxiliary Subnet Mask - Sets the 9145E Auxiliary IP Subnet Mask.

2. Inband Auxiliary Port - Describes the Auxiliary IP address ports. Allows the customer to select No
Ports, User Port Only, Net Port Only, or Both User and Net Ports.

3. Auxiliary VLAN Tagging - Enable or Disable Auxiliary IP VLAN Tagging.

4. Auxiliary VLAN Number - Sets Auxiliary IP VLAN ID number (between 0 and 4094). Default is 0.

5. Allow Any VLAN - Enable or Disable acceptance of any VLAN number. If Auxiliary VLAN Tagging
is Enabled and Allow Any VLAN is Disabled, only packets tagged with the Auxiliary VLAN Number are
accepted. If Auxiliary VLAN Tagging is Enabled and Allow Any VLAN is Enabled, then any VLAN can
be used with the Auxiliary IP.

6. Aux IP Rate Limiting - Enable or Disable Auxiliary IP Rate Limiting. The rate limiting function is
used to rate limit the traffic being received from the Aux IP. The Aux IP Rate Limiting default setting is
enabled. Rate limiting may be set to Disable when running a test, however, the setting will return to
Enabled after five minutes. An on screen timer shows time remaining until automatic enabling. To
extend Disable Time beyond five minutes, disable Rate Limiting again before Timer expiration.
