R3303-HP HSR6800 Routers Interface Configuration Guide

POS interface configuration example

Directly connecting routers through POS interfaces

Network requirements

As shown in Figure 5, use a pair of single mode optic fibers (for receiving and sending data, respectively)

to connect the POS interfaces on Router A and Router B.

Encapsulate the interfaces with PPP.

Configuration procedure

1. Configure Router A:

# Configure interface POS 2/1/0, setting its physical parameters to defaults.

<RouterA> system-view

[RouterA] interface pos 2/1/0

[RouterA-Pos2/1/0] ip address 10.110.1.10 255.255.255.0

[RouterA-Pos2/1/0] link-protocol ppp

[RouterA-Pos2/1/0] mtu 1500

[RouterA-Pos2/1/0] shutdown

[RouterA-Pos1/0] undo shutdown

2. Configure Router B:

# Configure interface POS 2/1/0.

<RouterB> system-view

[RouterB] interface pos 2/1/0

# Set the clock mode to master and other physical parameters to defaults.

[RouterB-Pos2/1/0] clock master

[RouterB-Pos2/1/0] ip address 10.110.1.11 255.255.255.0

[RouterB-Pos2/1/0] link-protocol ppp

[RouterB-Pos2/1/0] mtu 1500

[RouterB-Pos2/1/0] shutdown

[RouterB-Pos2/1/0] undo shutdown

Verifying the configuration

Check the interface connectivity between the POS interfaces with the display interface pos

command and test network connectivity with the ping command.
