Configuration overview

This guide uses the term preprovisioning in the context of preparing or preconfiguring ports and interfaces before enabling them. When the entity is in a no shutdown state (administratively enabled), the entity is considered provisioned.

Chassis IOM and MDAs

The 7705 SAR-Hm series routers have a fixed physical configuration that uses an integrated control and switching functional block. The Input/Output module (IOM) and Media Dependent Adapters (MDAs) are also integrated into the chassis.

On the CLI, a port is identified using the format slot/mda/port. The slot ID identifies the IOM and is always 1. The MDA identifiers are:

  • 1/1 for the cellular MDA and for the GNSS receiver

  • 1/2 for the Ethernet MDA

  • 1/3 for the serial port MDA

  • 1/4 for the WLAN port MDA

  • 1/5 for the virtualized integrated ISA MDA, for IPSec, IP tunnel, Network Address Translation (NAT), and Application Assurance (AA) firewall functionality

  • 1/6 for the virtualized integrated ISA MDA, for IPSec, IP tunnel, NAT, and AA firewall functionality

On the 7705 SAR-Hm, MDAs 1/1 through 1/4 are automatically provisioned and cannot be deprovisioned. MDAs 1/5 and 1/6 are not automatically provisioned, but can be provisioned and deprovisioned. When they are deprovisioned, the operator must reset the node to ensure the MDAs are completely deprovisioned before being reprovisioned.

On the 7705 SAR-Hmc, MDAs 1/1, 1/2, and 1/3 are automatically provisioned. MDAs 1/5 and 1/6 are not automatically provisioned, but can be provisioned and deprovisioned. When MDAs 1/5 and 1/6 are deprovisioned, the operator must reset the node to ensure the MDAs are completely deprovisioned before being reprovisioned.

CLI port Identifiers lists the CLI port identifiers for each port type on the chassis.

Table 1. CLI port Identifiers

Port type

CLI identifier

Variable definition

Cellular

1/1/port-id

port-id is the port number, 1 or 2

Ethernet

1/2/port-id

port-id is the port number:

  • from 1 to 6 on the 7705 SAR-Hm

  • from 1 to 3 on the 7705 SAR-Hmc

RS-232

1/3/port-id

port-id is the port number, 1 or 2

WLAN

1/4/port-id

port-id is the port number, 1 or 4

There are virtual ports in the CLI for the isa-tunnel-v, the isa-bb-v, and the isa-aa-v virtualized MDAs.

The following chassis and card names are used on the CLI:

  • integrated control and switching functional block—cpm-sar-hm or cpm-sar-hmc
  • IOM—iom-sar-hm or iom-sar-hmc

  • cellular MDA 1/1—i2-cellular

  • Ethernet MDA in slot 1/2—i6-10/100eth-tx or i3-10/100eth-tx

  • serial port MDA in slot 1/3—i2-sdi

  • WLAN port MDA in slot 1/4—i1-wlan or blank

  • virtualized integrated ISA MDA in slot 1/5—isa-tunnel-v, isa-bb-v, or isa-aa-v

  • virtualized integrated ISA MDA in slot 1/6—isa-tunnel-v, isa-bb-v, or isa-aa-v

The following CLI output shows the factory-provisioned settings when the show card state command is issued on the 7705 SAR-Hm.
