Pos Channel Configuration Example - Cisco ONS 15454 Software Feature And Configuration Manual

Chapter 9 Configuring Link Aggregation
POS channel is only supported with G-Series card compatible (LEX) encapsulation.
Note
To create an POS channel interface, perform the following procedure, beginning in global configuration
mode:
Command
Step 1
Router(config)# interface port-channel
channel-number
Step 2
Router(config-if)# ip address ip-address
subnet-mask
Step 3
Router(config-if)# end
Step 4
Router# copy running-config startup-config
The POS channel interface is the routed interface. Do not enable Layer 3 addresses on any physical

interfaces. Do not assign bridge groups on any physical interfaces because doing so creates loops.
To assign POS interfaces to the POS channel, perform the following procedure, beginning in global
configuration mode:
Command
Step 1
Router(config)# interface pos number
Step 2
Router(config-if)# channel-group
channel-number
Step 3
Router(config-if)# end
Step 4
Router# copy running-config startup-config

shows an example of POS channel configuration. The associated code is provided
Purpose
Creates the POS channel interface. You can
configure one POS channel on the ML-Series card.
Assigns an IP address and subnet mask to the POS
channel interface (required only for the Layer 3
POS channel).
Exits to privileged EXEC mode.
(Optional) Saves configuration changes to
NVRAM.
Purpose
Enters the interface configuration mode to
configure the POS interface that you want to
assign to the POS channel.
Assigns the POS interface to the POS channel. The
channel number must be the same channel number
that you assigned to the POS channel interface.
Exits to privileged EXEC mode.
(Optional) Saves the configuration changes to
NVRAM.
