Alcatel-Lucent 7750 SR Router Configuration Process
Table 2 lists the tasks necessary to provision input/output control modules (IOMs), also referred to
as cards, Media Carrier Modules (MCMs), Media Dependent Adapters (MDAs),and ports.
This guide is presented in an overall logical configuration flow. Each section describes a software
area and provides CLI syntax and command usage to configure parameters for a functional area.
Note: In SR OS any function that displays an IPv6 address or prefix changes to reflect rules
described in RFC 5952, A Recommendation for IPv6 Address Text Representation. Specifically,
hexadecimal letters in IPv6 addresses are now represented in lowercase, and the correct
compression of all leading zeros is displayed. This changes visible display output compared to
previous SR OS releases. Previous SR OS behavior can cause issues with operator scripts that use
standard IPv6 address expressions and with libraries that have standard IPv6 parsing as per RFC
5952 rules. See the section on IPv6 Addresses in the Router Configuration Guide for more
information.
