5.2 Configuring a Traffic Aggregation Application
Figure
5-20
illustrates an application where RICi-622GE aggregates traffic from
four RICi-155GE units. This section describes the necessary configuration of RICi-
622GE, assuming that you are starting with the default configuration.
Figure
5-20. Traffic Aggregation
You must configure the following to deploy RICi-622GE in this application:
1. System parameters (host IP, default gateway)
2. Link Aggregation for the Ethernet ports
3. Logical layer
4. SONET link mapping
5. Flows.
The default bridge port configuration is sufficient for this application, therefore
no bridge port configuration is necessary.
The necessary VCG configuration and SONET link mapping is shown in the
following figure. RICi-622GE uses a separate VCG for each remote RICi-155GE
unit.
