Creating Virtual Routers for the CMTS Device with the SRC CLI

You need to add a virtual router object called default to the CMTS device. Use the following configuration statements to add a virtual router:

shared network device name virtual-router name {

sae-connection [sae-connection...]; 

snmp-read-community snmp-read-community; 

snmp-write-community snmp-write-community; 

scope [scope...]; 

local-address-pools local-address-pools; 

static-address-pools static-address-pools; 

tracking-plug-in [tracking-plug-in...];

}

To add a virtual router:

1. From configuration mode, access the configuration statements for virtual routers. In this sample procedure, pcmm_dtr s the name of the router and default as the name of the virtual router.

user@host# edit shared network device pcmm_dtr virtual-router default 

2. Specify the addresses of SAEs that can manage this router. This step is required for the SAE to work with the router.

[edit shared network device pcmm_dtr virtual-router default] 

user@host# set sae-connection [sae-connection...] 

3. (Optional) Specify an SNMP community name for SNMP read-only operations for this VR.

[edit shared network device pcmm_dtr virtual-router default] 

user@host# set snmp-read-community snmp-read-community 

4. (Optional) Specify an SNMP community name for SNMP write operations for this virtual router.

[edit shared network device pcmm_dtr virtual-router default]

user@host# set snmp-write-community snmp-write-community 

5. (Optional) Specify service scopes assigned to this virtual router.

See SRC-PE Services and Policies Guide, Chapter 1, Managing Services with the SRC CLI.

[edit shared network device pcmm_dtr virtual-router default] 

user@host# set scope [scope...] 

6. (Optional) Specify the list of IP address pools that a CMTS virtual router currently manages and stores.

If you are using assigned IP subscribers along with the network information collector (NIC), you need to configure either a local or static address pool so that the NIC can resolve the IP-to-SAE mapping.

[edit shared network device pcmm_dtr virtual-router default]

user@host# set local-address-pools local-address-pools 

7. (Optional) Specify the list of IP address pools that a CMTS VR manages but does not store.

If you are using assigned IP subscribers along with the NIC, you need to configure either a local or static address pool so that the NIC can resolve the IP-to-SAE mapping.

[edit shared network device pcmm_dtr virtual-router default]

user@host# set static-address-pools static-address-pools 

8. (Optional) Specify the plug-ins that track interfaces that the SAE manages on this virtual router.

[edit shared network device pcmm_dtr virtual-router default] 

user@host# tracking-plug-in [tracking-plug-in...]

9. (Optional) Verify your configuration.

[edit shared network device pcmm_dtr virtual-router default] 

user@host# show 

sae-connection [ 10.14.39.2 10.10.5.30 ];

snmp-read-community ********;

snmp-write-community ********;

scope POP-Westford;

local-address-pools "10.25.8.0 10.25.20.255";

tracking-plug-in rksPlugin;
