This configuration shows the use of the global default VRF. The recommended option is to use a private
VRF for nV IP addresses as shown in the Satellite Management Using Private VRF, on page 67 subsection
under Configuration Examples for Satellite nV System.

DETAILED STEPS
PurposeCommand or Action
Enters global configuration mode.configure
Example:
RP/0/0RSP0/CPU0:router# configure
Step 1
The supported inter-chassis link interface types are limited by the
connectivity provided on the supported satellites. GigabitEthernet,
TenGigE, and Bundle-Ether interfaces are the only support ICL types.
interface interface-name
Example:
RP/0/0RSP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface
TenGigE0/2/1/0
Step 2
Specifies the description of the supported inter-chassis link interface
type.
description
Example:
RP/0/0RSP0/CPU0:router(config-interface)#
description To Sat5 1/46
Step 3
(Optional) Configures the IPv4 point to point address.ipv4 point-to-point
Example:
RP/0/0RSP0/CPU0:router(config-interface)#
ipv4 point-to-point
Step 4
(Optional) Configures the IPv4 loopback address on the interface.ipv4 unnumbered loopback0
Example:
RP/0/0RSP0/CPU0:router(config-interface)#
interface unnumbered loopback0
Step 5
Enters the Network Virtualization configuration mode.nV
Example:
RP/0/0RSP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# nv
Step 6
Specifies that the interface is an ICPE inter-chassis link.
satellite-fabric-link satellite <id>
Example:
RP/0/0RSP0/CPU0:router(config-int-nv)#
satellite-fabric-link satelite 200
Step 7
Configures the remote satellite ports 0 to 30.
remote-ports interface-type
Example:
RP/0/0RSP0/CPU0:router(config-int-nv)#
remote-ports GigabitEthernet 0/0/0-30
