Ethernet config on 15454

[aolabisi]

running 4.6.2 with the following ethernet modules - g1K-4, E1000-2G and E100-12TG modules.

I'd like to splice an OC-12 circuit in the following manner:

STS-6C port-mapped to G1K-4 module. (easy can do)

STS-4 mapped to E1000-2G in single-card etherswitch. (don't know how)

STS-2 mapped to E100-12 in single-card etherswitch. (don't know how).

mapping with the default circuit sizes of STS-3C will result in a waste for E100 and will be inadequate for E1000 based on my application requirements.

thoughts, ideas, suggestions are welcome.

thx,

Dayo,

The E-Series ethernet card only supports the following circuit sizes:

STS-1, STS-3c, STS6c and STS12c

One option would be to put the E1000 and the E100 card in multicard mode. Build an STS-6C to the Ethergroup, and segment the bandwidth using VLANs. This would allow you to have an STS-6C (roughly 300 meg) between the E-Series cards that could be shared.

I knew of that, but the two applications are required to be on completely different networks.

Can I create multiple STS-1 circuits?. Will the ONS automatically load-balance traffic between them?
