Configuring the Satellite nV Access Interfaces
• Loopback interface is given an IP address from a private satellite VRF
• Satellite fabric links are unnumbered to the loopback interface
• The IP address assigned to satellite is auto-generated from the satellite VRF
In the case of Auto IP, you need not specify any IP addresses (including the IP address on the Satellite itself,
under the satellite submode), and the nV Satellite infrastructure assigns suitable IP addresses, which are taken
from the 10.0.0.0/8 range within a private VRF to both the satellites and the satellite fabric links. All such
Auto IP allocated satellites are in the same VRF, and you must manually configure IP addresses, if separate
VRFs are required.
Note
You cannot combine auto-configured Satellites with manually configured Satellites within the same
satellite fabric.
The auto-IP feature assigns an IP address in the format 10.x.y.1 automatically, where:
• x is the top (most significant) 8 bits of the satellite ID
• y is the bottom 8 bits (the rest) of the satellite ID
You can also override the Auto IP feature by using the standard IP configuration.
Note
For examples on configuration using the Auto-IP feature, see
Configuring the Satellite nV Access Interfaces
The access Gigabit Ethernet interfaces on the satellite are represented locally in Cisco IOS XR Software using
interfaces named Gigabit Ethernet similar to other non-satellite Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. The only difference
is that the rack ID used for a satellite access Gigabit Ethernet interface is the configured satellite ID for that
satellite.
These interfaces support all features that are normally configurable on Gigabit Ethernet interfaces (when
running over a physical ICL), or Bundle-Ether interfaces (when running over a virtual ICL).
With respect to the dual home topology, the satellite access port configuration needs to be done on both
Note
the active and standby hosts. The administrator needs to make sure that the same configuration is applied
for a particular access port on both the active and standby hosts. In addition, any feature configurations
on satellite-access ports needs to be configured identically on both the hosts. Also, the configuration
synchronization between the hosts is not currently supported.
Configuring the Fabric CFM
This procedure gives you the steps to configure CFM on a Satellite nV Fabric link interface. This is mandatory
in the case of Layer 2 Fabric Network architecture.
