Log in

Use this task to configure OSC interfaces and static routes so that local and remote NCS 1001 nodes can be managed across OSC links.

Configure remote management reachability between local and remote NCS 1001 nodes.

The Remote Management feature, introduced in R6.3.1, allows you to configure the IP addresses of local and remote nodes to enable remote management of NCS 1001.

Three OSC interfaces are configured to support remote management. They provide static routes to remote nodes. Each interface is statically associated with a slot: OSC1 with slot 1, OSC2 with slot 2, and OSC3 with slot 3.

Procedure

1.

Configure the management and OSC interfaces. For details about management and OSC interfaces, see Configure management and OSC interfaces.
2.

Configure static routes for remote node reachability. For details about static routes, see Configure static routes.

The NCS 1001 node has management reachability to remote nodes across the OSC links.

Configure management and OSC interfaces

Procedure

Use these commands to configure management and OSC interfaces.

interface mgmtEth rack/slot/instance/port

ipv4 address ipv4-address subnet-mask

These are samples of configuring the management and OSC interfaces.

Example:

configure
      interface MgmtEth 0/RP0/CPU0/0
      ipv4 address 10.58.227.198 255.255.255.0
      shutdown
      exit
configure
      interface MgmtEth 0/RP0/OSC1/0
      ipv4 address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
      shutdown
      exit
configure
      interface MgmtEth 0/RP0/OSC2/0
      ipv4 address 10.1.2.1 255.255.255.0
      shutdown
      exit
configure
      interface MgmtEth 0/RP0/OSC3/0
      ipv4 address 10.1.3.1 255.255.255.0
      shutdown
      exit

Configure static routes

This procedure configures all the static routes into the NCS 1001 node.

Procedure

Use the router static address-family command to configure static routes.

router static address-family ipv4 unicast 0.0.0.0/0 default-gateway

This sample shows the NCS 1001 node connected to three different nodes using static routes.

Example:

configure
      router static address-family ipv4 unicast
      0.0.0.0/0 MgmtEth 0/RP0/CPU0/0 10.58.227.1
      10.1.1.0/24 MgmtEth 0/RP0/OSC1/0 10.1.1.2
      10.1.2.0/24 MgmtEth 0/RP0/OSC2/0 10.1.2.2
      10.1.3.0/24 MgmtEth 0/RP0/OSC3/0 10.1.3.2
      exit
