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 (Enterprise 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
   ORACLE(configure)# system
   ORACLE(system)# network-interface
   ORACLE(network-interface)

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.
6. Type sec-utility-addr 169.254.1.2, and press ENTER.
7. Type done, and press ENTER.
8. Type quit, and press ENTER.
9. Save and activate the configuration.
