Step 3: Configure Media Component with Cluster Interface

Once you have configured the Media Component's OAMP interface (if required), you need to configure it with a Cluster interface.

➢

To configure the Media Component with a Cluster interface:

1.

Access the Media Component's Web interface.

2.

In the Physical Ports table (see Configuring Physical Ethernet Ports), configure the port (e.g., "GE 3") with a speed and duplex mode:

3.

In the Ethernet Groups table (see Configuring Ethernet Port Groups), assign the Ethernet port to an Ethernet Group (e.g., "Group 2"):

4.

In the Ethernet Devices table (see Configuring Underlying Ethernet Devices), configure an Ethernet Device by assigning it the Ethernet Group and configuring a VLAN ID (e.g., "vlan 2"):

5.

Open the IP Interfaces table (see Configuring IP Network Interfaces), and then configure a Cluster interface with 'Application Type' Cluster and assigned the Ethernet Device (e.g., "vlan 2") that you configured in the previous step:

6.

Click Apply, and then restart the device with a save-to-flash for your settings to take effect.
