Example Port Mapping Configuration Steps; Verifying The Port Mapping Configuration - Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850-48 Network Configuration Manual

Verifying the Port Mapping Configuration

In the above example topology:
•
Ports 2/1 and 2/2 on Switch A do not interact with each other and do not interact with the ports on
Switch B.
•
Ports 2/1, 2/2, and 3/1 on Switch B interact with all the ports of the network except with ports 2/1 and
2/2 on Switch A.
•
Ports 2/1 and 2/2 on Switch D do not interact with each other but they interact with all the user ports on
Switch A except 3/1, 3/2, and 3/3. They also interact with all the ports on Switch B and Switch C.
•
Ports 3/1, 3/2, and 2/1 on Switch C can interact with all the user ports on the network except 3/1, 3/2,
and 3/3 on Switch A.

Example Port Mapping Configuration Steps

The following steps provide a quick tutorial that configures the port mapping session shown in the
diagram on page 7-5.
1
Configure session 1 on Switch A in the unidirectional mode using the following command:
-> port mapping 1 unidirectional
2
Create two port mapping sessions on Switch A using the following commands:
-> port mapping 1 user-port 2/1-2 network-port 1/1-2
-> port mapping 2 user-port 3/1-3 network-port 1/3
3
Enable both the sessions on Switch A using the following commands:
-> port mapping 1 enable
-> port mapping 2 enable
Similarly, create and enable a port mapping session 1 on Switch D by entering the following commands:
-> port mapping 1 user-port 2/1-2 network-port 1/1
-> port mapping 1 enable
Verifying the Port Mapping Configuration
To display information about the port mapping configuration on the switch, use the show commands listed
below:
show port mapping status
show port mapping
For more information about the displays that result from these commands, see the OmniSwitch CLI Refer-
ence Guide.
