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}}}}}
