After creating the software repositories, configure the satellite. The satellite configuration is required to create a satellite binding to a satellite ID, and to provide more information that uniquely identifies the satellite chassis, chassis type, and the software repository to be used to boot the remote satellite.
The following parameters can be specified for a satellite.
mac-address — The satellite chassis MAC address must be specified. This is used to bind a specific chassis to the associated satellite ID. (The local host router boots only satellites with configured MAC addresses.) This parameter is mandatory.
sat-type — The satellite chassis type must be specified and must match the chassis type that the satellite advertises during the boot process. This parameter is mandatory.
software-repository— A preconfigured software repository must be specified in the satellite configuration. This defines the location of the software image to boot the associated 7210 SAS-Sx. This parameter is mandatory.
no shutdown — By default, a new satellite is in a shutdown state; use the no shutdown command to bring the satellite online. This parameter is mandatory.
description — Use this command to configure a description string associated with the satellite. This parameter is optional.
sync-e — Use this command to enable the sync-e option. This parameter is only available for an Ethernet satellite. This parameter is optional.
