Cable Bundle Master - Motorola BSR 64000 Reference Manual

BSR 64000 Command Reference Guide

cable bundle master

Cable bundling allows you to group multiple cable interfaces into a single IP subnet.
Cable bundling simplifies network management and conserves IP addresses.
Each BSR 64000 DOCSIS module provides one cable interface. A cable bundle
comprises two or more cable interfaces: one cable interface is configured as the
master, while the remaining interfaces are configured as slaves to the master. If one
DOCSIS module is configured as the master, the other DOCSIS modules can become
slaves. The master cable interface is assigned a single IP address and the slaves share
the same IP address with the master. Therefore, the bundling feature eliminates the
need for an IP subnet for each cable interface.
The cable bundle master command is used to assign the cable interface as the master
cable interface and assign the cable bundle a number.
