IGX Configuration Summary
Checking the Power Supplies (AC Systems)
The means for verifying the correct power supply voltages are the DC Okay and AC Okay LEDs on each
power supply. If either of these LEDs is off, a problem exists in relation to that supply. Power supplies
are not field-adjustable. If a power supply voltage is out of tolerance, replace the supply with one known
to be within tolerance.
Note In an IGX node, no test points are available in either the AC power supplies or any circuit board for
checking voltages.
IGX Configuration Summary
This section outlines the steps and names the commands for configuring a network. This section is not
an exhaustive presentation. For detailed descriptions of the commands, refer to Cisco WAN Switching
Command Reference or Cisco WAN Switching SuperUser Command Reference.
You can configure the IGX node through commands you enter at the control terminal or, if you have
access, at a Cisco WAN Manager network management system (NMS). Note that certain features are
paid options, which TAC personnel must enable before you add the corresponding connections.
Examples of paid options are Frame Relay and ABR with ForeSight.
For IGX configuration, the control terminal has system access either through a local control port (over
an EIA/TIA-232 or Ethernet TCP/IP link) or from a control terminal screen on a Cisco WAN Manager
NMS. Remote control terminal access is possible using a virtual terminal (vt) command if the node has
been configured with a name (using the cnfname command) and at least one trunk has been established
to the network.
The basic tasks to configure an IGX node are as follows:
• For setting up the node:
– Configure the node name (using the cnfname command).
– Configure the time zone (using the cnftmzn command).
– Configure the LAN interface (using the cnflan command).
– Configure the auxiliary or terminal ports to support any necessary external devices such as a
local printer, an autodial modem, or an external multiplexer attached to the unit (using the
cnfprf, cnfterm, and cnftermfunc commands).
• For setting up the trunks:
– Verify that the correct cards are in both the local and remote node (using the dspcds command).
– Activate the trunk at each node (using the uptrk command).
– Configure any parameters required for the trunk at each node (using the cnftrk command).
– For a UXM-E, specify cellbus bandwidth as needed (using the cnfbusbw command).
– Set up optional Y-cable redundancy if you require it (using the addyred command).
– Set up optional trunk redundancy if you require it (using the addtrkred command).
– Set up any subrate trunk interface control templates if desired (using the cnftrkict command).
