Configuring Interfaces on the PRP-3

For example, the following prompt indicates that the CLI commands are executed on the RP in rack 0,

slot RP0, by the “CPU0” module on a router named “router:”

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router#

Configuring the Management Ethernet Interface on PRP-3

The Management Ethernet interface on the PRP-3 is used to connect the router to a network for remote

management using a Telnet client, the Craft Works Interface (CWI), the Simple Network Management

Protocol (SNMP), or other management agents. The following sections provide information on the

Management Ethernet interface:

• Specifying the Management Ethernet Interface Name in CLI Commands, page 54

• Displaying the Available Management Ethernet Interfaces, page 55

• Configuring the Management Ethernet Interface, page 56

Specifying the Management Ethernet Interface Name in CLI Commands

Before you can configure the Management Ethernet interface, you must know the Management Ethernet

interface name, which is defined using the following syntax: typerack/slot/module/port. Table 16

describes the Management Ethernet interface name syntax.

slot Slot in which the RP or DRP is installed. In a Cisco CRS-1 router, the

RP physical slot number is “RP0” or “RP1.” In a

Cisco XR 12000 Series Router, the physical slot number can be 0 to

15, and there can be multiple SDRs, each of which is represented by

an RP.

module Entity on a card that executes user commands or communicates with

a port (interface). For executing commands from the EXEC prompt,

the module is the “CPU0” of the RP. “CPU0” also controls the

forwarding and operating system (OS) functions for the system.

DRPs have two processors: CPU0 and CPU1.

router-name Hostname of the router or SDR. The hostname is usually defined

during initial configuration of the router.

type Interface type for a Management Ethernet port is “MgmtEth.”

rack Chassis number of the rack. In a single-shelf system, the rack is always

“0.” In a multishelf system, the LCC rack number range is 0 to 255.

slot Physical slot of the RP or DRP on which the interface is located. For a

Cisco XR 12000 Series Router, the PRPs may be installed in slots 0

through 15, depending on the router model.
