T5 Profile Config Commands

Configures the T5 controller‘s interfaces

Supported in the following platforms:

  • Wireless Controllers — RFS4000
  • Service Platforms — NX9500, NX9510

Syntax

interface [<WORD>|dsl|fe|ge|radio|vlan]
interface [<WORD>|dsl <1-24>|fe <1-24> <1-2>|ge <1-2>|radio <1-24> <1-2>|vlan <1-4094>]

Parameters

interface [<WORD>|dsl <1-24>|fe <1-24> <1-2>|ge <1-2>|radio <1-24> <1-2>|vlan <1-4094>]
<WORD> Configures the interface identified by the <WORD> keyword
dsl <1-24> Configures the specified DSL interface. A T5 controller uses the IPX operating system to manage its connected radio devices, as opposed to the WiNG operating used by controllers and NX service platforms. However, a T5 controller, once enabled as a supported external device, can provide data to WiNG to assist in a T5‘s management within a WiNG supported subnet populated by both types of devices. The CPEs are the T5 controller managed radio devices using the IPX operating system. These CPEs use DSL as their high speed Internet access mechanism using the CPE‘s physical wallplate connection and phone jack.
  • <1-24> – Specify the DSL port index from 1 - 24.
fe <1-24> <1-2> Configures the specified FastEthernet interface. The T5 controller has the following FastEthernet port designations: fe1-fe2 (fe1-fe2 are for up to 24 CPE devices managed by a T5 controller).
  • <1-24> – Specify the DSL port index from 1 - 24.
    • <1-2> – Specify the FastEthernet interface to configure.

In the FastEthernet interface configuration mode, specify the interface settings.

ge <1-2> Configures the specified GigabitEthernet interface.

T5 controllers have two Ethernet port designations, These are ge1 and ge2. The GE ports can be RJ-45 or fiber ports supporting 10/100/1000Mbps.

  • <1-2> – Specify the interface index from 1 - 2.

In the GigabitEthernet interface configuration mode, specify the interface settings.

radio <1-24> <1-2> Configures the specified radio interface. T5 controller managed CPE device radios can have their radio configurations overridden once their radios have successfully associated and have been provisioned by the adopting controller, service platform, or peer model AP controller access point.
  • <1-24> – Specify the radio interface index from 1 - 24.
    • <1-2> – Allows the second radio to be specified as a radio interface. For example, this is “interface radio X Y” where ‘X‘ is the DSL line number and ‘Y‘ is the radio interface (number).
vlan <1-4094> Configures the specified VLAN interface. Once configured, the VLAN interface provides layer 3 (IP) T5 controller access or provides layer 3 service on a VLAN. The VLAN interface defines which IP address is associated with each VLAN ID a T5 controller is connected to. A VLAN interface is created for the default VLAN (VLAN 1) to enable remote administration. This interface is also used to map VLANs to IP4 and IPv6 formatted IP address ranges. This mapping determines the destination for routing.
  • <1-4094> – Specify the VLAN interface index from 1 - 4094.

In the VLAN configuration mode, specify the interface‘s primary IP address in the A.B.C.D/M format. Optionally specify the secondary IP address.
