atmf-arealink
Overview This command to enable an Eth interface, on an AR-series device, as an AMF area
link. AMF area links are designed to operate between two nodes in different areas
in an AMF network. This command is only available if your network is running in
AMF secure mode (see atmf secure-mode for more information on AMF secure
mode).
Use the no variant of this command to remove any AMF area links that may exist
for the selected Eth interface.
Syntax
atmf-arealink remote-area <area-name> vlan <2-4094>
no atmf-arealink
Default By default, no area links are configured
Mode Eth interface on an AR-series device.
Usage notes Run this command on the interface at both ends of the link.
Each area must have the area-name configured, and the same area password must
exist on both ends of the link.
Running this command will synchronize the area information stored on the two
nodes.
You can configure multiple area links between two area nodes, but only one area
link at any time will be in use. All other area links will block information, to prevent
network storms.
