5.4. Configuring an IES Service with CLI

This section provides information to configure IES services using the CLI.

5.4.1. Basic Configuration

The most basic IES service configuration has the following entities:

  1. Customer ID (refer to Configuring Customer 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-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#

5.4.2. 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.

5.4.3. Configuring IES Components

5.4.3.1. Configuring 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#

5.4.3.2. Configuring IES Interface Parameters

The following is a sample IES configuration with interface parameters.

*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#

5.4.3.3. Configuring 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 and SAP egress. 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
----------------------------------------------
*A:ALA-A>config>service>ies>if#

5.4.3.4. Configuring VRRP

Configuring VRRP parameters on an IES interface is optional and is available only in network 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#

5.4.4. Service Management Tasks

This section describes the service management tasks.

5.4.4.1. 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 modified service configuration 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
               exit
           exit
           no shutdown
exit
----------------------------------------------
*A:ALA-A>config>service#

5.4.4.2. 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.

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

5.4.4.3. Disabling an IES Service

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

config>service> ies service-id
— shutdown

5.4.4.4. Re-Enabling an IES Service

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

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