Mediant 1000 Gateway & E-SBC | User's Manual
Parameter Description
â– Only one IP network interface can be configured with
OAMP in this table. To configure additional
management interfaces, see Configuring Additional
Management Interfaces.
'Ethernet Device'
underlying-dev
[InterfaceTable_
UnderlyingDevice]
Assigns an Ethernet Device to the IP interface. An
Ethernet Device is a VLAN associated with a physical
Ethernet port (Ethernet Group). To configure Ethernet
Devices, see Configuring Underlying Ethernet Devices.
By default, no value is defined.
Note: The parameter is mandatory.
IP Address
'Interface Mode'
mode
[InterfaceTable_InterfaceMode]
Defines the method that the interface uses to acquire its
IP address.
â– [3] IPv6 Manual Prefix = IPv6 manual prefix IP
address assignment. The IPv6 prefix (higher 64 bits)
is set manually while the interface ID (the lower 64
bits) is derived from the device's MAC address.
â– [4] IPv6 Manual = IPv6 manual IP address (128 bits)
assignment.
â– [10] IPv4 Manual = (Default) IPv4 manual IP address
(32 bits) assignment.
'IP Address'
ip-address
[InterfaceTable_IPAddress]
Defines the IPv4/IPv6 address in dotted-decimal
notation.
By default, no value is defined.
Note: The parameter is mandatory.
'Prefix Length'
prefix-length
[InterfaceTable_PrefixLength]
Defines the prefix length of the related IP address. This is
a Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR)-style
representation of a dotted-decimal subnet notation. The
CIDR-style representation uses a suffix indicating the
number of bits which are set in the dotted-decimal format.
For example, 192.168.0.0/16 is synonymous with
192.168.0.0 and subnet 255.255.0.0. This CIDR lists the
number of ‘1’ bits in the subnet mask (i.e., replaces the
standard dotted-decimal representation of the subnet
mask for IPv4 interfaces). For example, a subnet mask of
255.0.0.0 is represented by a prefix length of 8 (i.e.,
11111111 00000000 00000000 00000000) and a subnet
mask of 255.255.255.252 is represented by a prefix length
of 30 (i.e., 11111111 11111111 11111111 11111100).
The prefix length is a Classless Inter-Domain Routing
(CIDR) style presentation of a dotted-decimal subnet
notation. The CIDR-style presentation is the latest
method for interpretation of IP addresses. Specifically,
instead of using eight-bit address blocks, it uses the
variable-length subnet masking technique to allow
allocation on arbitrary-length prefixes.
