Step 4
framing sdh
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-sonet)#
framing sdh
Configures the controller framing for Synchronous Digital
Hierarchy (SDH) framing.
SONET framing (sonet) is the default.
Step 5
au number
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-sonet)# au 1
Specifies the administrative unit (AU) group and enters AU path
configuration mode. For AU-3, the valid range is:
• 1 to 48—1-Port Channelized OC-48/DS3 SPA
• 1 to 3—1-Port Channelized OC-3/STM-1 SPA
• 1 to 12—2-Port Channelized OC-12c/DS0 SPA
Note The au command does not specify the AU type. It specifies
the number of the AU group for the AU type that you want
to configure. The range for the AU command varies based
on whether you are configuring AU-3 or AU-4.
Step 6
mode t3
or
mode e3
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-auPath)#
mode t3
Sets the mode of interface at the AU level to T3 or E3.
Step 7
root
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-auPath)#
root
Exits to global configuration mode.
Step 8
controller {t3 | e3} interface-path-id
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config)# controller
T3 0/1/1/0/0
Enters T3 or E3 controller configuration submode and specifies the
T3 or E3 controller name and interface-path-id with the
rack/slot/module/port/auNum notation.
Step 9
mode serial
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-t3)# mode
serial
Configures the mode of the port to be clear channel serial.
Step 10
show configuration
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-t3)# show
configuration
Displays the contents of uncommitted configuration.
Step 11
root
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-t3)# root
Exits to global configuration mode.
