--

Network interface short name

The label of the interface.

--

--

Association

The network interface name as used by the operating system.

--

--

Admin status

• Up: Sets the port in service.
• Down: Sets the port out of service.

Up

• Up
• Down

Layer 3

Layer 3 Protocol

The Layer 3 protocol used for the interface.

IP

--

IP Address

The IP address of the interface. This parameter is displayed in case of LAN and ETH interface. This parameter is not displayed for ECC and GCC network interface.

IP Address

--

MTU

The maximum size of the packet that can be sent through the interface.

The default value displayed depends on the network interface type LAN/ECC/GCC.

1518

248 - 1518

Proxy ARP

Proxy ARP

Allows the user to either enable or disable the Proxy ARP option. This parameter is displayed only in case of LAN network interface.

Disable

• Enable
• Disable

Layer 2

NOTE: The options "Magic Number" and "32 Bit CRC Check" comes only in IBC interfaces and not for the LAN interfaces. The LAN interface is a subset of the IBC interface.

Layer2 protocol

The Layer 2 protocol used for the interface. The available Layer 2 protocols are:

• PPP HDLC Framing
• Standard PPP, RFC 1661

PPP HDLC Framing

• PPP HDLC Framing
• Standard PPP, RFC 1661

Magic Number

Magic number is editable only when Standard PPP, RFC 1661 is selected for Layer 2 Protocol. Magic number is not applicable for LAN.

Enable

• Enable
• Disable

32 Bit CRC Check

A CRC of 32 bits provides more powerful error detection.

Disable

• Enable
• Disable

IPCP Address Negotiation

Select the required value from the list. This option is visible only when the value for Layer2 Protocol is selected as Standard PPP, RFC 1661.

Disable

• Enable
• Disable

OSPF

OSPF

Parameter to enable or disable OSPF.

• Enable: Enables OSPF on the node.
• Disable: Disables OSPF on the node.

Enable

• Enable
• Disable

Hello Interval (sec)

The time interval after which the node sends Hello messages. The Router Dead Interval should be an integral multiple of Hello Interval.

10

1 to 65535

Router Dead Interval (sec)

The maximum time duration for which the node waits for response for the hello packet sent by it to the neighboring node.

Ensure that the value entered is the same as the remote node IBC configuration.

30

Integral multiple of Hello Interval

Area Id

Allows you to select the identity of set of networks grouped together by the OSPF.

0.0.0.1

--

OSPF Cost

Allows you to enter the default cost on an OSPF interface. The default value displayed is a numeric value, which depends on the byte selected for IBC configuration.

--

--

OSPF Authentication Password/Key

Applicable only when Simple password is selected for OSPF Authentication mode.

--

The password can be a set of alphanumeric characters having a maximum length of 8 characters.

OSPF Authentication Mode

Acceptable values include:

• Disable Authentication: The hello packets received are not authenticated.
• Simple Password: The hello packets received are authenticated against the password or key provisioned in the node.

Disable Authentication

• Disable Authentication
• Simple Password

TEFlooding

Allows you to select the value as enable or disable from the drop down list. This parameter is applicable in case of GMPLS.
