Getting Started

Configuring PCM+ Agent Module

To begin, a PCM+ Agent Module’s ports must be placed in the correct switch

VLANs and an IP address must be assigned to the module.

Configuring PCM+ Agent Module Ports

Assign the PCM+ Agent Module’s two ports as untagged members of two

separate VLANs:

Table 1-3. VLAN requirements for PCM+ Agent Module

For example, if the PCM+ Agent Module is in slot C, and there are two VLANs,

VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 configured on the switch, use the following commands

from the switch CLI to configure the port memberships.

hostswitch (config)# vlan 1 untagged c1

hostswitch (config)# vlan 2 untagged c2

Configuring PCM+ Agent Module IP Address

Enter the product management menu by entering the following command:

hostswitch (config)# services <slot ID> <product index>

hostswitch (config)# services <slot-id> name <application-name>

Replace <slot ID> with the letter of the chassis slot in which the module

is installed. Replace <product index> with the index number associated

with thePCM+ Agent Application or use pcm-agent for the <application-

name>.

Module Port Mode VLAN requirements

<slot ID> 1 untagged 1. Must be a different VLAN than the one used by

port <slot ID 2>. VLAN

<slot ID> 2 untagged 1. This VLAN must provide network access to the

PCM+ 3.10 Server. If the switch has a

management VLAN, that VLAN is a good

choice.

2. If you wish to use DHCP for the Agent’s IP

address, this VLAN also must have access to

a DHCP server.
