7.3. Configuring an IES Service with CLI

This section provides information to configure IES services using the command line interface.

7.3.1. Basic Configuration

The most basic IES service configuration has the following entities:

  1. Customer ID (refer to Configuring Customers Accounts)
  2. An interface to create and maintain IP routing interfaces within IES service ID.
  3. A SAP on the interface specifying the access port and encapsulation values.

The following is a sample configuration output of an IES service on ALA-48 on an access-uplink SAP (applicable for access-uplink mode only).

*A:ALA-48>config>service# info
----------------------------------------------
     ies 1000 customer 50 create
            description "to internet"
            interface "to-web" create
                address 10.1.1.1/24
                sap 1/1/5:0.* create
                exit
            exit
            no shutdown
----------------------------------------------
*A:ALA-48>config>service#

The following is a sample basic IES service configuration for IPv6, along with the use of max-ipv6-routes in 7210 SAS-M and 7210 SAS-T access-uplink mode.

The following is a sample allocation of IPv6 routes on the node.

*A:7210SAS>config>system>res-prof# info
----------------------------------------------
            max-ipv6-routes 1000
----------------------------------------------
 
NOTE: the node must be rebooted after the above change.
 
*A:ALA-50>config>service# info
----------------------------------------------
 ies 1000 customer 50 vpn 1000 create
  description "to inband-mgmt"
  interface "to-mgmt" create
   ipv6
    address 2001:db8::1/24
     sap 1/1/10:100.* create
    exit
  exit
 no shutdown
----------------------------------------------
*A:ALA-50>config>service#
 

The following is a sample configuration output of an IES service on ALA-50.

*A:ALA-50>config>service# info
----------------------------------------------
ies 1000 customer 50 vpn 1000 create
     description "to internet"
     interface "to-web" create
          address 10.1.1.1/24
               sap 1/1/10:100 create
          exit
     exit
     no shutdown
----------------------------------------------
*A:ALA-50>config>service#

7.3.2. Common Configuration Tasks

This section provides a brief overview of the tasks that must be performed to configure IES services and provides the CLI commands.

  1. Associate an IES service with a customer ID.
  2. Associate customer ID with the service.
  3. Assign an IP address.
  4. Create an interface.
  5. Define SAP parameters on the interface
    1. Select nodes and ports.
    2. Optional — select filter policies (configured in the config>filter context).
  6. Enable service.

7.3.3. Configuring IES Components

7.3.3.1. Configuring an IES Service

Use the following syntax to create an IES service.

The following is a sample basic IES service configuration output.

A:ALA-48>config>service#
----------------------------------------------
...
     ies 1001 customer 1730 create
            description "to-internet"
            no shutdown
     exit
----------------------------------------------
A:ALA-48>config>service#

7.3.3.2. Configuring IES Interface Parameters

7.3.3.2.1. Network Mode

The following is a sample IES configuration output with interface parameters in network mode.

 
*A:7210-SAS>config>service>ies>if# info
----------------------------------------------
                arp-timeout 10000
                allow-directed-broadcasts
                icmp
                    ttl-expired 120 38
                exit
                arp-populate
                ip-mtu 1000
                host-connectivity-verify interval 500 timeout 50 retry-count 15
                delayed-enable 150
                bfd 150 receive 300 multiplier 15 echo-receive 3000
                local-proxy-arp
                remote-proxy-arp
                loopback
*A:7210-SAS>config>service>ies>if#
----------------------------------------------

7.3.3.2.2. Access-uplink Mode

The following is a sample IES configuration with interface parameters in access-uplink mode.

*A:7210-SAS>config>service>ies>if# info
----------------------------------------------
     arp-timeout 10000
     allow-directed-broadcasts
     icmp
          ttl-expired 120 38
     exit
     ip-mtu 1000
----------------------------------------------
*A:7210-SAS>config>service>ies>if#

7.3.3.3. Configuring IES SAP Parameters

A SAP is a combination of a port and encapsulation parameters which identifies the service access point on the interface and within the router. Each SAP must be unique within a router.

When configuring IES access SAP parameters, a default QoS policy is applied to each SAP ingress. Additional QoS policies must be configured in the config>qos context. Filter policies are configured in the config>filter context and must be explicitly applied to a SAP. There are no default filter policies.

The following is a sample IES SAP configuration output.

----------------------------------------------
*A:ALA-A>config>service>ies>if# info
----------------------------------------------
     address 10.10.36.2/24
     sap 1/1/3:100 create
          ingress
               qos 101
          exit
     exit
----------------------------------------------
*A:ALA-A>config>service>ies>if#

7.3.3.4. Configuring VRRP

Configuring VRRP parameters on an IES interface is optional and is available only in network mode and is not supported in access-uplink mode. VRRP can be configured in either an owner or non-owner mode. The owner is the VRRP router whose virtual router IP address is the same as the real interface IP address. This is the router that responds to packets addressed to one of the IP addresses for ICMP pings, TCP connections and related addresses. All other virtual router instances participating in this message domain should have the same VRID configured and cannot be configured as an owner.

The following is a sample IES configuration output.

 
*A:ALA-A>config>service>ies>if# info
----------------------------------------------
address 10.10.36.2/24
vrrp 2 owner
     backup 10.10.36.2
     authentication-type password
     authentication-key "3WErEDozxyQ" hash
exit
----------------------------------------------
*A:ALA-A>config>service#

7.3.4. Service Management Tasks

This section discusses the service management tasks.

7.3.4.1. Modifying IES Service Parameters

Existing IES service parameters in the CLI or NMS can be modified, added, removed, enabled or disabled. The changes are applied immediately to all services when the charges are applied.

To display a list of customer IDs, use the show service customer command.

Enter the parameters (such as description SAP information) and then enter the new information.

The following is a sample of the modified service output.

*A:ALA-A>config>service>ies# info
----------------------------------------------
     ies 1000 customer 50 create
           description "This is a new description"
           interface "to-web" create
               address 10.1.1.1/24
               mac 00:dc:98:1d:00:00
               sap 1/1/5:0.* create
               exit
           exit
           no shutdown
     exit
----------------------------------------------
*A:ALA-A>config>service#

7.3.4.2. Deleting an IES Service

An IES service cannot be deleted until SAPs and interfaces are shut down and deleted and the service is shutdown on the service level.

Use the following syntax to delete an IES service.

CLI Syntax:
config>service#
[no] ies service-id
shutdown
[no] interface ip-int-name
shutdown
[no] sap sap-id
shutdown

7.3.4.3. Disabling an IES Service

Use the following syntax to shut down an IES service without deleting the service parameters.

CLI Syntax:
config>service> ies service-id
shutdown

7.3.4.4. Re-Enabling an IES Service

Use the following syntax to re-enable an IES service that was shut down.

CLI Syntax:
config>service> ies service-id
[no] shutdown
Example:
config>service# ies 2000
config>service>ies# no shutdown
config>service>ies# exit
