The SBC Core supports the system  command clusterAdmin clusterComm to configure intra-cluster VNFC communication interfaces for use with the Load Balancing Service.

Note

You must restart the SBC after changing IP addresses for intra-cluster VNFC communication.

 

Command Syntax

The CLI syntax for non-Cloud and Cloud configurations is shown below. The parameters that display are dependent upon the clusterComm type setting: ip or mgmt.

SBC 5xx0/7000/SWe Syntax

clusterComm type = ip
% set system clusterAdmin clusterComm
	addressContext <addressContext name>
	pktIpAddress
	type <ip |mgmt>
clusterComm type = mgmt
% set system clusterAdmin clusterComm 
   	mgmtInterfaceGroup mgmtGroup 
   	mgmtIpAddress <IP address>
	type <ip | mgmt>

 

SBC SWe Cloud Syntax

clusterComm type = ip
% set system clusterAdmin clusterComm
	addressContext <addressContext name>
	ipInterfaceGroup <IPIG name>
	pktIpVar <metaVariable>
	type <ip |mgmt>
clusterComm type = mgmt
% set system clusterAdmin clusterComm 
   	mgmtInterfaceGroup mgmtGroup 
   	mgmtIpVar <metaVariable>
	type <ip | mgmt>

Command Parameters

This section details the command parameters in two tables, one each for Cloud and non-Cloud SBC configurations.

Use the show table system clusterAdmin clusterComm command to view configuration details. Refer to Show Table System for details.

Configuration Example

To configure packet interface using IPv6 address for VNFC communication in a Cloud M-SBC cluster:

set system clusterAdmin clusterComm type ip addressContext default ipInterfaceGroup MLIG2 pktIpVar IF3.IPV6
commit

 

To configure packet interface using IPv4 address for VNFC communication in a Cloud M-SBC cluster:

set system clusterAdmin clusterComm type ip addressContext default ipInterfaceGroup MLIG2 pktIpVar IF3.IPV4
commit

 

To configure management interface using IPv6 address for VNFC communication in a Cloud M-SBC cluster:

set system clusterAdmin clusterComm type mgmt mgmtInterfaceGroup mgmtGroup mgmtIpVar IFO.IPV6
commit

 

To configure management interface using IPv4 address for VNFC communication in a Cloud M-SBC cluster:

set system clusterAdmin clusterComm type mgmt mgmtInterfaceGroup mgmtGroup mgmtIpVar IFO.IPV4
