MDA commands

mda

Syntax

mda mda-slot

no mda mda-slot

Context

config>card

Platforms

Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document, including platforms configured in the access-uplink operating mode

Description

This command enables the MDA CLI context to configure MDAs.

Note:

All 7210 SAS platforms auto-provision MDAs and do not require this command to be configured.

Parameters

mda-slot

Specifies the MDA slot number to be configured. Fixed ports on the panel of the chassis belong to MDA 1.

Values

1

mda-type

Syntax

mda-type mda-type

no mda-type

Context

config>card>mda

Platforms

Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document.

Description

This command configures a specific MDA type to the device configuration for the slot. The MDA can be preprovisioned but an MDA must be provisioned before ports can be configured. Ports can be configured after the MDA is correctly provisioned.

All 7210 SAS platforms (unless noted otherwise) support a fixed MDA. The fixed MDA (addressed as mda 1) is auto-equipped and auto-provisioned on boot up. It cannot be deleted. An error message is shown in case a no mda-type command is executed on a fixed MDA.

Note:

All 7210 SAS platforms auto-provision MDAs and do not require this command to be configured.

The no form of this command deletes the MDA from the configuration.

Default

MDA 1 is auto-equipped and auto-provisioned by default during boot up

Parameters

mda-type

Specifies the type of MDA selected for the slot position.

Values

7210 SAS-T, 7210 SAS-Sx/S 1/10GE, 7210 SAS-Sx 10/100GE, 7210 SAS-Mxp — The logical MDA with fixed ports is auto-provisioned

7210 SAS-R6, 7210 SAS-R12 — The logical MDA (which is named based on the type of IMM) is auto-provisioned

sync-e

Syntax

[no] sync-e

Context

config>card>mda

Platforms

7210 SAS-T, 7210 SAS-Sx/S 1/10GE (standalone), 7210 SAS-Sx 10/100GE, 7210 SAS-Mxp, 7210 SAS-R6, and 7210 SAS-R12

Description

This command enables Synchronous Ethernet on the Ethernet ports that support Synchronous Ethernet. When Synchronous Ethernet is enabled, the timing information is derived from the Ethernet ports.

Synchronous Ethernet is supported for both Ethernet SFP ports and fixed copper ports. It is highly recommended to use copper port only for distribution of synchronous Ethernet and not as a reference.

See the 7210  SAS-Mxp, R6, R12, S, Sx, T Basic System Configuration Guide for more information about Synchronous Ethernet.

The no form of this command disables Synchronous Ethernet on the MDA.

Default

no sync-e
