 In-band connectivity mode: In this connectivity mode, the VLAN is used to
differentiate between the bearer and external NMS IP domains on the DATA
port. The bearer VLAN is used for the bearer IP domain and the
external-management VLAN is used for the external NMS IP domain. The
MGMT port is assigned to the local-management VLAN in this connectivity
mode.
 Unified connectivity mode: In this connectivity mode, the bearer IP domain
and external NMS IP domain are unified. That is, the same IP address and
VLAN are used to connect to the NMS server, AAA server, HA, and BS. (The
MGMT port is assigned to the local-management VLAN in this connectivity
mode.
For more information about the VLANs that are configured for 4Motion, refer the
section, “Configuring Physical and IP Interfaces” on page 139.
The following table lists the physical interface and VLAN configuration with
respect to the connectivity mode:
IMPORTANT
For all connectivity modes, the CSCD port enabled in VLAN-transparent bridging mode, and is
assigned to local-management VLAN.
IMPORTANT
In addition to the bearer IP domain, local-mangement IP domain, and external-management IP
domain, each NPU has an internal NMS IP domain. The internal NMS IP domain is used for
separating the IP domain for management traffic between the BS and NPU card.
