Router Chassis Configuration Guidelines

You can configure properties of the router chassis, including the clock source, conditions that activate the red and yellow alarm light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on the router's craft interface, and SONET/SDH framing and concatenation properties for individual Physical Interface Cards (PICs).

To configure router chassis properties, you include statements at the [edit chassis] hierarchy level of the configuration:

chassis {
    aggregated-devices {
        ethernet {
            device-count number;
        }
        sonet {
            device-count number;
        }
    }
    alarm {
        interface-type {
            alarm-name (red | yellow | ignore);
        }
    }
    fpc slot-number {
        pic pic-number {
            atm-cell-relay-accumulation;
            atm-l2circuit-mode (cell | aal5);
            vtmapping number;
            ce1 {
                e1 port-number {
                    channel-group group-number timeslots slot-number;
                }
            }
            ct3 {
                port port-number {
                    t1 link-number {
                        channel-group group-number timeslots slot-number;
                    }
                }
            }    
            framing (sdh | sonet);
            idle-cell-format {
                itu-t;
                payload-pattern;
            }
        mlfr-uni-nni-bundles number;
            no-concatenate;
            sparse-dlcis;
            vtmapping (itu-t | klm);     
        }
    }
    (packet-scheduling | no-packet-scheduling);
    vrf-mtu-check;
    (source-route | no-source-route);
    redundancy {
        failover on-loss-of-keepalives;
        graceful-switchover (disable | enable);
        keepalive-time seconds;
        routing-engine slot-number (master | backup | disabled);
        sfm slot-number (always | preferred);
        ssb slot-number (always | preferred);
    }
}
