What is the best practice for conecting an AS5400XM with a channelized voice DS3 to the netowrk? We have multiple 6500's at the next layer and most devices connect to each of them for redundancy. What's the best way to do this? We also have a 6500 with CMM mods and we use multiple vlans to connect one line to each access 6500. Does this model make sense with a lone AS5400XM?
Sample configs.
AS5400XM
!
interface Loopback1
description Voice Gateway Vlan CM
ip address 10.100.101.X 255.255.255.255
H323 Voice Commands and binding
!
interface Gi0/0
description L3 connection to AccessSwitch 6500
ip address 10.100.XXX.1 255.255.255.252
ip route-cache flow
!
interface Gi0/1
description L3 connection to AccessSwitch 6500
ip address 10.100.XXX.1 255.255.255.252

6500 with CMM Mods

interface VlanXXX

interface VlanXXX

This 6500 has 3 CMM mods with 2 6port T1 cards each.
CMM1 - Needs 2 IP's in 10.100.101.X VG VLAN
CMM3 - Needs 2 IP's in 10.100.101.X VG VLAN
CMM7 - Needs 2 IP's in 10.100.101.X VG VLAN

Your approach seems fine to me. This will certainly work for a start.

Hi Leo,
Thanks for the response. Do you see any problems with having one of the loopback interfaces on the AS5400xm having a /32 mask in the same subnet as a vlan interface with a /24 mask on the 6509 ?
My x's are more due to the fact that I don't know what the addresses wil be yet then to the fact that I am hiding them...but it is funny when they are hidden :)
