Tn Bpx - Cisco MGX 8850 Installation And Configuration Manual

Before it can carry traffic, the trunk on an interface shelf must be "upped" (using uptrk) on both the
interface shelf and the hub node and "added" to the network (using addshelf). Also, a trunk must be
free of major alarms before you can add it using the addshelf command.
Interface Shelf Parameters- addshelf
Parameter Description
slot.port (trunk) slot.port
Specifies the slot and port number of the trunk.
shelf type I or A or P or V or X
On a BPX 8600-series node, shelf type specifies the type of interface shelf when
you execute addshelf. The choices are I for IGX/AF, A for the MGX 8220, P for
EPS (Extended Services Processor, a type of Adjunct Processor Shelf), V for VSI,
or X for the MGX 8850 node. On an IGX hub, only the IGX/AF is possible, so shelf
type does not appear.
vpi vci Specifies the VPI and VCI (Annex G VPI and VCI used). For the MGX 8220 only,
the valid range for VPI is 5–14 and for VCI is 16–271.

The sample display shows the partial execution of a command with the prompt requesting that the
I/F type be entered.
