IP address Pool questions
Hello, I have a Chassis that is populated with 14 Hiper DSP cards, 2 Hiper Arc Router cards and 1 Hiper NMC. I need to setup the odd # dsp cards to use the 1st router card and the even # dsp cards to use the 2nd router card. My second task is on each card I've been asked to setup a separate IP address pool. Example: DSP card in slot 1, assign an address pool starting with 192.168.0.1 that has 24 addresses. slot 3, assign an address pool starting with 192.168.0.25 that has 24 addresses. And so on, so forth. Any takers on this issue? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, jim

Easy, You should statically assign the DSP's to each ARC, but first disable chassis awareness, DSA and DSA Idle rebalancing on both arc's. Then create the static assignments. Create the pools you need with proper subnet size. This is what I did for our chassis', this made good use of the ip space. ARC1 (ODD DSP's) ip-pool1 x.x.x.1/26 62 32 PUBLIC NO_AGGREGATE 0 1 ACTIVE ip-pool2 x.x.x.65/26 62 27 PUBLIC NO_AGGREGATE 0 1 ACTIVE ARC2 (EVEN DSP's) ip-pool1 x.x.x.129/26 62 24 PUBLIC NO_AGGREGATE 0 1 ACTIVE ip-pool2 x.x.x.193/26 62 29 PUBLIC NO_AGGREGATE 0 1 ACTIVE The static DSP assignment "how to" is available on the 3com KB, there are a variety of ways to set this up. I prefer using a static assignment system since it is (IMO) the most reliable method, at least for our system. - Mike ------------------------------------------------ Rock Island Communications, Inc.

Mike, Question. Since I'm really green at all of this, and I do NOT have access to the knowledge base, could you forward me a copy of this document, please? I'm not to sure how I would actually create the ip pools and how to tell each pool to use a certain Hiper DSP card in a certain slot. In your example below. I don't understand the # after the ip address/ Is that the subnet? What/Where does the 62 or 32 #'s come into play? Anyway, any help would greatly be appreicated. Thanks, jim ARC1 (ODD DSP's)
ip-pool1 x.x.x.1/26 62 32 PUBLIC NO_AGGREGATE 0 1 ACTIVE ip-pool2 x.x.x.65/26 62 27 PUBLIC NO_AGGREGATE 0 1 ACTIVE

I'm under the impression that you have to pay for the use of that site - support. Is this correct? jim WayneG wrote:

This is one of the last free things you can get from ConWorks. Do a search for, "configure two HiPer Arcs" or "configure 2 hiper arc's", also search on "Using NMC Chassis Awareness" KB ID: 950 , 2231 and 2469 These are the KB articles I used. To make things quick and easy I created a couple text files with the proper commands for each arc and just did a "copy-n-paste" for each ARC. - Mike ------------------------------------------------ Rock Island Communications, Inc.
