DM984 product family CHAPTER 11. IPSAN CONFIGURATION
11.6.6 FLOW-Profile
The profile has two distinct functions. It differentiates between packets that have
different VLAN IDs and/or priorities and redirects it to the right GEM port. This
function is essential when dealing with more than one T-CONT with different
bandwidths that are assigned to GEM ports. On the other hand it manages the
VLAN tags that are allowed to go through the ONU. A rule in this profile is
assigned to a GEM port.
The following steps are done in the configuration menu. For creating a FLOW-
Profile the following command is given:
profile gpon flow <name>
Description of the used parameters:
Name Format Description
<name> Alphanumeric Name of the FLOW-Profile
Note: When the chosen name is already taken it will change the existing entry.
FLOW rule creation
There are 2 kinds of rules possible:
• Ethernet rules
• IP-HOST rules
While Ethernet rules are mandatory for casual data operation, IP-HOST rules
are used for VoIP. However, only Ethernet rules are described in this document.
For more informations about IP-HOST rules please refer to the dedicated IPSAN
manual[1].
Ethernet rules can be assigned to all Ethernet interfaces or to specific Ethernet
interfaces. For an assignment to all Ethernet interfaces the following command
is given:
add-rule <id> uni-type eth uni-port all vlan <vid> virtual-port
,→ <vp-id>
Description of the used parameters:
Name Format Description
<id> Number (1-32) ID of the FLOW rule
<vid> Number (1-4094) VLAN ID to be used
<vp-id> Number (1-16) ID of one of the previously defined virtual ports
