Workflow to configure network interfaces

Overview

The following workflow lists the high-level steps required to configure network interfaces to perform routing and forwarding. Each of the steps provide guidance on the type of XML request required to perform a particular configuration action.

See the XML API SDK Sample Code Navigator for sample XML scripts.

Stages
 
1 

Create and configure the network interfaces that are associated with network ports. The XML configuration request creates and configures the interfaces as follows:

  1. Assign a name to the interface.

  2. Associate IP address, a network port, and QoS policy settings to the interface.

2 

As required, create static routes. See Static route configuration for more information.

3 

As required, configure a routing policy. See Chapter 18, Policy configuration management for more information.

4 

Configure and enable the associated routing protocol. See Routing protocol configuration for more information.
