Alcatel-Lucent 7450 Basic System Configuration Manual page 353

If the associated Ethernet satellite is active, the satellite will not be reset but all satellite client ports
will be shut down.
If the Ethernet satellite is not active but attempts to associate with the host, the Ethernet satellite chassis
will be brought up according to the satellite configuration but all client ports will be shut down.
The no form of this command removes the shutdown state and all client ports on active Ethernet
satellites will be brought back up.
Default shutdown
software-repository
Syntax [no] software-repository repository-name
Context config>system>satellite>eth-sat
Description This command binds the specified software repository to the associated Ethernet satellite. The software
repository is used to locate and serve the correct software image to the Ethernet satellite at boot time.
The configured software repository is only used when the satellite boots. Changing the software
repository for an active satellite does not have an effect until the next time a satellite boots.
An Ethernet satellite cannot be booted if there is no software repository defined for it.
The no form of the command removes the software repository.
Default no software-repository
Parameters
repository-name — A string of up to 64 characters that uniquely identifies the software repository.
sync-e
Syntax [no] sync-e
Context config>system>satellite>eth-sat
Description
This command enables the Ethernet satellite for synchronous Ethernet operation so that the transmit
timing of the satellite access ports use the frequency of the host router's central clock.
To enable this functionality, both host ports on the router that connect to the U1 and U2 ports of the
satellite must be synchronous Ethernet-capable ports.
When the Ethernet satellite is configured for synchronous Ethernet, ESMC frames are enabled on the
host ports. The SSM code-type used between the host and the satellite should be manually configured
on the host ports to match the code-type desired on the satellite client ports. The code-type setting on
the host ports does not restrict the code-type used on the satellite client ports, as those may be
configured on an individual port basis.
