Upgrade of
iMAP (CFC
load)
Supported All CFC cards have loads for the GX
type, which replaces the GP. The load
that supports the GP and GX CFC
types (called the universal load) is
much larger. Refer to Allied Telesis
iMAP series documentation.
By default, the NMS loads
the universal load unless the
user builds a custom load or
manually modifies the
iMAP.xml file. Ensure you
have enough memory on the
CFC card for software files.
Provisioning
iMG with
GE24BX
Not Available With the GE24BX, the iMG7x6MOD
(1G interface) is fully supported, with
GE24BX port set to AUTO.
For non-1G iMGs, the port
(profile) must be set. Refer
to 7.9.5.
Provisioning
VLANs on IMG
NMS supports creating
service VLANs when a
service is selected.
The iMG supports up to 16 VLANS.
Allows the user to specify custom
VLANs in General profile and the
NMS creates the specified VLANs in
iMGs.
Refer to 7.9.8.

visioning the

checkmark to retain the bootstrap
