Chapter 2 - Commissioning Initial NPU Configuration
4Motion 55 System Manual
The default connectivity mode is In-Band (IB) via the Data port. Alternatively, the
NPU can be managed Out-Of-Band (OOB) via the dedicated Management port.
To view the current and configured connectivity mode, use the command:
npu# show connectivity mode
To change the connectivity mode to Out-Of-Band, use the command:
npu(config)# connectivity mode outband (for details refer to “Configuring the IP
Connectivity Mode” on page 100).
2.1.3.2 VLANs Translation (Outband Connectivity Mode)
When using In-Band connectivity via the Data port, the default VLAN ID for
management packets is 12. The default VLAN ID for data packets is 11. If different
VLAN IDs are used in the backbone, the VLANs should be translated accordingly.
To enable VLAN translation and configure the required VLANs translation, run the
following commands (the examples are for backhaul Data VLAN ID 30 and
Management VLAN ID 31):
1 Enable the Data port configuration mode (for details refer to “Enabling the
Interface configuration mode” on page 104):
npu(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/10
2 Enable VLAN translation (for details refer to “Enabling/Disabling VLAN
Translation” on page 111): npu(config-if)# vlan mapping enable
3 Translate data VLAN 11 to the backhaul data VLAN 30 (for details refer to
“Creating a VLAN Translation Entry” on page 111):
npu(config-if)# vlan mapping 11 30
4 Translate management VLAN 12 to the backhaul management VLAN 31:
npu(config-if)# vlan mapping 12 31
5 Exit the interface configuration mode: npu(config-if)# exit
6 To view the VLAN mapping parameters, run the command:
npu# show interface gigabitethernet 0/10 vlan mapping
2.1.3.3 External Management Interface
To configure the necessary parameters of the External Management interface used
for connectivity with the EMS system, run the following commands:
1 Enable the External Management interface configuration mode (for details
refer to “Enabling the Interface configuration mode” on page 104):
npu(config)# interface external-mgmt
(there is no need to shut down the interface for configuring its parameters)
