MxK Hardware Installation Guide
The uplink card also contains a serial (craft) port for local management.
After establishing a connection to the MXK, administrators can manage the
device using the Command Line Interface (CLI), Web UI, ZMS, or SNMP.
The MXK provides access and aggregation routing functions to connect
subscribers to networks. The following MXK interfaces support IP traffic:
•
One Ethernet interface on the uplink card only for management.
•
High speed Ethernet interfaces on the uplink cards including two 10 GE
links and eight 100/1000 Ethernet links.
The MXK provides the following key data services:
•
IP forwarding and routing—incoming packets from an interface are
forwarded to the appropriate output interface using the routing table rules.
•
Bridging—incoming packets from an interfaces are forwarded based on
MAC addresses or Layer 2 forwarding rules.
•
DHCP servers and relay for IP address configuration.
•
IP filtering. IP filtering is typically performed to enhance network
security by limiting access between two networks.
•
Numbered or unnumbered interfaces.
•
Bridging: uplink, downlink, TLS, and intralinks.
•
Bridging enhancements:
– IP on a TLS bridge
– Intralink support including multiple intralinks
– VLAN wildcard for Q-in-Q
– DHCP relay
