Configuring the Ports

The OC-48 card has the following ports:
WAN 1 : a Wide Area Network port which can be configured to SONET protocol.
EFC 1, 2 and 3 : can be configured to FC (Fibre Channel) or GbE (Gigabit Ethernet).
NOTE: Configure only the ports that are needed at this time. Other ports can be
configured at a later time without interrupting service, but returning a port to
unconfigured status requires shutting the system down.
NOTE: Two systems in a point to point connection must have their ports configured
identically. Refer to
Use the following CLI example to configure ports on the card. In order to support a point to
point connection with another node, a SONET port must be configured. You will be prompted
for timing. If the gateway is to derive the clock from the SONET equipment (i.e. when
connected to an ADM), accept the default line-timing. If the gateway will be generating the
clock, change this value to internal-timing (i.e. when connected back to back).
gateway:> config port wan 1
gateway/config/port/wan/1# type sonet
enter sync-mode <line-timing | internal-timing> [line-timing] : inter
