Configure the Acme Packet 1100 Network Interface for HA

To establish system redundancy for a pair of Acme Packet 1100 Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controllers, configure the network interface parameters for each member of the pair. Perform all of the configuration on the active (E-SBC) and then perform a synchronization, so that the peer can acquire the configuration.

Before You Begin

• Configure the management interface. See "Configure the Acme Packet 1100 Management Interface for HA."
• Configure the media interface virtual MAC address. See "Virtual MAC Address Configuration."

Procedure

Configure the network interface for wancom0 on a VLAN that is not the VLAN for the management interface. Configure a unique address for the pri-utility-addr and sec-utility-addr parameters.

1. Logon and navigate to the network-interface object.

   ORACLE# configure terminal

2. Type name wancom0, and press ENTER.
3. Type sub-port-id <VLANname>, and press ENTER.
4. Type netmask 255.255.0.0, and press ENTER.
5. Type pri-utility-addr 169.254.1.1, and press ENTER.
