Creating a Configuration File on the T1600 Router for Integration
into the Routing Matrix
Using the current T1600 router configuration, create
a configuration file on the T1600 router that will be merged into
the TX Matrix Plus router configuration:
- Save the T1600 router
configuration. For example:
user@host# save T1600-config.conf
- As described in Configuration Groups, special configuration groups re0 and re1 apply
to the Routing Engines in slots 0 and 1 of the TX Matrix Plus router.
If the T1600 router configuration contains these groups, you must
change them to lcclcc-number-re0 and lcclcc-number-re1, where lcc-number equals the chassis ID of the
router.
- If the configuration includes special Routing Engine configuration
groups, include the apply-groups statement at the [edit] hierarchy level. For example:
apply-groups [ lcc0-re0 lcc0-re1 ]
- Change the configuration hierarchy of all statements at
the [edit chassis fpc slot-number] hierarchy
level to the [edit chassis lcc lcc-number fpc slot-number] hierarchy level.
- If the chassis ID of the T1600 router is 0, you
do not need to change interface names or the configuration hierarchy
of any other statements. Otherwise, you must modify the FPC number
throughout the configuration based on the chassis ID you select. For
more information, see TX Matrix Plus Interface Names Overview.
- Save the modified T1600 router configuration using a different
filename from the one you selected for the saved configuration. For
example:
user@host# save txp-config.conf
 | Note:
Do not commit the configuration. |
This is an example of a modified T1600 router configuration
at the [group lcc0-re0] hierarchy level:
group lcc0-re0 {system {host-name host-name;backup-router address destination destination-address;}interfaces {em0 {unit 0 {family inet {address address/prefix-length}}}}}
