Adjusting the Configuration to Accommodate
Increased FPC Numbers

A routing matrix can contain up to four T640 routing nodes, and each T640 routing node can contain up to eight FPCs (numbered 0 through 7). Therefore, the routing matrix as a whole can consist of up to 32 FPCs (numbered 0 through 31).

Each T640 routing node is assigned a number (LCCs 0 through 3) that depends upon the hardware setup and connectivity to the TX Matrix platform. Table 13 shows the basic correspondence between the FPC hardware slot numbers in T640 routing nodes and the FPC assignments recognized by a routing matrix.

To easily convert FPC numbers in the T640 routing nodes to the correct FPC number in a routing matrix, use the conversion chart shown in Table 14. You can use the converted FPC number to configure the interfaces on the TX Matrix platform in your routing matrix.

For example, if you have a Gigabit Ethernet interface installed in FPC slot 7, PIC slot 0, port 0 of T640 routing node LCC 3, you can configure this interface on the TX Matrix platform by including the ge-31/0/0 statement at the [edit interfaces] hierarchy level.

[edit]
interfaces {
    ge-31/0/0 {
        unit 0 {
            family inet {
                address ip-address;
            }
        }
    }
}
