Configuring browser-based Active Ethernet zNIDs
Configuring a bridge for data, Active Ethernet
Just as with the GPON solution to configure a bridge to the zNID, you must
have a bridge on the MXK (The Active Ethernet card acts as the OLT; in fact,
each port can be considered a separate OLT). To build a bridge that reaches
the subscriber devices bridges need to be built on the zNID.
For each service we will be adding a separate bridge with its own VLAN. For
the data and video services we will set up an uplink and downlink bridge.
From the perspective of each access device, the MXK and zNID, this means
creating a bridge from the upstream interface to the downstream interface.
For data services we will create a bridge on the MXK from the Internet uplink
to the Active Ethernet downlink. On the zNID we will create a bridge from
the WAN Ethernet interface to LAN 2 port. For data coming from the PC to
the LAN port we will need to add a VLAN header, so the packets will be
designated VLAN 200. Packets going downstream to the PC on LAN 2 port
will likewise have the VLAN information stripped because the PC does not
need tagged packets; only packets with VLAN 200 will be delivered to the
LAN 2 interface.

Clearing off the default settings of the zNID
We will remove the default connections, so we can go through the steps of
creating a solution.
1 Click Network Connections in the left hand menu pane
2 In the Network Connections page, delete Data VLAN 200 by clicking
the delete action icon for that item, then click OK to confirm
