SET MODULE NETWORK
Example 2
The following command assigns the Ethernet Network Monitor Card attached to
subslot 5 in a Distributed Management Module for Ethernet in hub slot 4 to
Ethernet network 1:
CB5000> set module 4.5 network ethernet_1
Module 04.05 network id set to ETHERNET_1.
Limitations on NMC
Network Assignments
Network Monitor Card network assignments have the following limitations:
You cannot assign two NMCs to the same network (for example, Ethernet_1)
if both interfaces are enabled.
You cannot assign two NMCs with the same IP address, regardless of
network assignment.
The following scenarios describe these limitations in greater detail:
1
If you have an active NMC on Ethernet_1 and you try to set another NMC to
Ethernet_1, or try to enable a disabled NMC on that network, the following
message is displayed:
2
If you have an NMC on a network with an active (non-loopback) IP address, and
you try to set another NMC to a different network with the
same IP address
(or
try to enable a disabled one on that network), the following message is
displayed:
3
If you try to set an IP address for a network that has an enabled NMC on it,
and there is already an enabled NMC with that IP address, the following
message is displayed:
You cannot assign a TR-NMC attached to a CoreBuilder 5000 module-switched
Token Ring module to a network. A TR-NMC on this module is automatically
assigned to the same network as the host module.
