After you have completed the initial configuration procedures, if required, you can change the default Point Code Emulator (PCE) NA values to any unique value from 1 to 99. The default PCE NA settings are recommended unless they are already in use by existing configurations and the PCE support creates a conflict.
The PCE supports Basic and Enhanced licensing options.
For more information about PCE, refer to the appropriate section in the SS7 Application Guide 2.
Use this procedure to configure an alias for the network interface pkt0 for pce_1 and pkt1 for pce_2 on all Routing CPUs or Routing and Management VMs.
Start
SSH to one of the Routing and Management VMs.
Do not use the shared IP address for logging onto the Routing and Management VMs.
From the Linux prompt of the Command Line Interface (CLI), enter startmenu.
