An Ethernet port is used to connect the U2000 and NEs. The NEs are connected to each other
through fibers or Ethernet.
On the U2000, set the static route to the GNE and non-GNEs.
Add static routes to the U2000 on the destination station and the intermediate station.
As shown in Figure 4, the U2000 with the IP address of 10.100.11.12 connects to NE1 through a
router and accesses NE3 in the direct connection mode. Suppose the IP address of the U2000 is
10.100.11.0 (subnet mask 255.255.255.0). Perform the listed operations:
Add the static route on NE2 to 10.100.11.0, with the next hop address as 10.9.0.2.
Add the static route on NE3 to 10.100.11.0, with the next hop address as 192.168.0.2.
Configuration Requirements
If NEs communicate with each other through IP over DCC, note the following rules for setting the
network scale.
To prevent data loss, limit the number of NE nodes in the same OSPF area to 60.
When using the U2000 to monitor NEs, limit the number of non-GNEs monitored by one GNE to
60.
If NEs communicate with each other through IP over DCC, note the following rules for setting the IP
address.
If NEs communicate through IP addresses on the network layer, each NE need to have a unique
IP address to avoid routing error due to conflict.
NEs support standard A, B, C types of IP addresses, that is, the IP address ranges from 1.0.0.1
to 223.255.255.254. The 127.x.x.x, a loopback address, cannot be used.
The IP address must be used with the subnet mask. The subnet mask supports consecutive
masks in addition to natural masks, for example, 255.255.224.0.
When the IP over DCC communication is used between a GNE and a non-GNE, the IP
addresses can be of different network sections.
The GNE and non-GNEs cannot be in the same IP subnet. The NEs managed through the same
GNE can be in different IP subnets.
Do not configure one GNE and one non-GNE into the same IP subnet.
The Ethernets in the network must belong to different subnets. Otherwise, a routing error will
occur in the whole network. This is not allowed.
The priority of static routes is higher than that of dynamic routes. If there is a conflict, static
routes take priority.
