Chapter 7 Switch Operating Procedures
Managing Partitions
To add an MPLS partition on port which has a minimum VCI value of 32, perform one of the following
options:
• Add the MPLS controller, and then add the TDP sig vc using a VPI/VCI pair within its partition’s
range.
• Enter the dnport and cnfpart commands to change the minimum VCI to 35 for all partitions on the
port.
Deleting a Resource Partition
To delete a resource partition, you must do the following:
• Delete any connections that are using the affected port
• Bring down the affected port
The following procedure explains how to delete a resource partition.
Step 1 Establish a configuration session using a user name with CISCO_GP privileges.
Step 2 To display a list showing the partitions for this card, enter the dspparts command.
Step 3 Note the interface number and partition number for the resource partition you want to delete.
Step 4 To display the active connections, enter the following command:
mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > dspcons
The following is a sample dspcons display.
pop20one.7.PXM.a > dspcons
Local Port Vpi.Vci Remote Port Vpi.Vci State Owner
----------------------------+-----------------------------+-------+------
10:2.2:2 100 100 Routed 100 100 FAIL MASTER
Local Addr: 47.00918100000000107b65f33c.0000010a1802.00
Remote Addr: 47.009181000000002a123f213f.000001011802.00\\
Step 5 Review the dspcons command display to see if the interface to which the partition is assigned is being
used by a connection. The Identifier column identifies the interface, VPI, and VCI for the connection in
the format: if.VPI.VCI. If the interface is in use, note the VPI and VCI values of all connections that use
the interface. You will need these to delete the connections.
Step 6 Delete each connection that uses the interface by entering the following command:
mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > delcon <ifNum> <VPI> <VCI>
Step 7 Bring down the interface by entering the following command:
mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > dnport <ifNum>
Step 8 Delete the resource partition by entering the following command:
mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > delpart <ifNum> <partId>
Replace <ifNum> with the interface number of the port, and replace <partitionId> with the partition
number assigned to the port.
Step 9 To verify that the partition has been deleted, enter the dspparts command to display a list of partitions
for the card.
