Forwarding Plane Commands - Alcatel-Lucent 7750 Configuration Manual

Forwarding Plane Commands

fp
Syntax fp [fp-number]
Context config>card
Description This command enables the context to configure multicast path management commands for IOM-3 ingress
multicast management. Ingress multicast management manages multicast switch fabric paths which are for-
warding plane specific. On IOM-1 and IOM-2, each MDA has a dedicated forwarding plane and so have
dedicated multicast paths to the switch fabric allowing the multicast management to be defined per MDA.
IOM-3 has a single forwarding plane shared by two MDAs. The fp node simplifies ingress multicast man-
agement on IOM-3.
While IOM-3 only has a single forwarding plane. In future releases, to accommodate multiple forwarding
planes, each forwarding plane will be assigned a value. The default forwarding plane is 1. When entering the
fp node, if the forwarding plane number is omitted, the system will assume forwarding plane number 1.
Parameters fp-number — The fp-number parameter is optional following the fp command. If omitted, the system
assumes forwarding plane number 1.
Values
Default
dist-cpu-protection
Syntax dist-cpu-protection policy-name

Description This command specifies the protocol name to be monitored by Distributed CPU Protection Policy.
egress
Syntax egress
Context config>card>fp

mands for IOM-3 ingress multicast management.
