Routing Nodes
The IGX can be a feeder node to a BPX, another IGX, or an MGX. After enabling the IGX feeder
functionality, you must configure the routing node to activate the feeder trunk interface, configure
matching trunk parameters, and add the feeder node. Refer to the platform documentation for your
routing node to add or delete a feeder node.
IGX Routing Node
The IGX can serve as a routing node for the following feeders: IGX, IPX, Cisco MGX 8230, or
Cisco MGX 8250. To configure the IGX as a routing node, refer to the section “Adding an Interface
Shelf” in the chapter “Cisco IGX 8400 Series Nodes” of the Cisco IGX 8400 Series Provisioning Guide.
