The Sonus SBC 2000 allows you to configure the Identification/Status information, Physical Data Layer, and Networking Layer for the Ethernet ports. If you want to change the IP Address, you must configure the associated Logical Interface or use the Modify Ethernet IP task found under the Tasks tab.

To access the Ethernet Ports on the

With No Ethernet Port Redundancy selected

 

 

 

 

Ethernet Port - Primary (Redundancy Selected)

 

 

Ethernet Port - Secondary (Redundancy Selected)

 

 

 

The ASM 2 Ethernet port is for special applications, and cannot be used for VOIP-gateway or SBC functionalities.

 

Networking - Field Definitions

FieldDescription
ACL In

Determines the Access Control List (ACL) to be used on this port when filtering incoming packets. For more information about Access Control Lists, see Managing Access Control Lists.

Note: After the port is configured for redundancy, this option can only be configured on the primary Ethernet port.

ACL Forward

Determines the Access Control List (ACL) to be used when filtering forwarded (i.e. routed) packets received on this port. For more information about Access Control Lists, see Managing Access Control Lists.

Note: After the port is configured for redundancy, this option can only be configured on the primary Ethernet port.

Frame Type

Specifies the type of Ethernet frames that can be received on this port.

  • All: When selected, both untagged and tagged Ethernet frames are accepted on this port.
  • Untagged: When selected, only untagged frames are accepted on this port.
  • Tagged: When selected, only tagged frames are accepted on this port, and no default VLAN will be configured.

Note: The ASM 1 Ethernet port is limited to Untagged mode only.

Default Untagged VLAN

Specifies the default VLAN to which untagged frames will be assigned when they are received on this port. Visible only when Untagged or All is selected from the Frame Type list box. For more information about VLANs, see Creating and Modifying VLANs.

Note: By default, each Ethernet port will be assigned to their own port specific system created VLAN (e.g. Ethernet 1 VLAN). When the port specific VLAN is selected, IP layer communication takes place with its default Logical Interface (e.g. Ethernet 1 IP).

Note: This option cannot be configured if the port is configured for failover redundancy.

Tagged VLANs

Specifies the tagged VLAN(s) of which this Ethernet port is a member. Only user created VLANs can be selected. Visible only when Tagged or All is selected from the Frame Type list box. Since the ASM 1 Ethernet port is limited to Untagged mode only, the Tagged VLAN selection is not be present for this port.

Note: This option cannot be configured if the port is configured for failover redundancy.

List will reflect platform type and not offering the port currently being configured as redundant port.
Redundancy RolePrimary (0)
Secondary (1)
Indicates if the port is the primary or secondary port. (The primary port is the port in which the associated logical interface has an IP address.)
Redundancy StateOnline (0)
Backup (1)
Read-only field that indicates which Ethernet port is active.

 

Logical Interface Changes

When modifying the primary port for redundancy, the
