Changing AMS Interface Parameters on a TDF Gateway

date_range 13-Jan-21

This procedure shows how to change the parameters for an aggregated multiservices (AMS) interface on a TDF gateway using maintenance mode at the [edit interfaces] hierarchy level. If an AMS interface is configured under a gateway’s session PICs or services PICs, and you change any load-balancing options such as membership of AMS interfaces (mams), then the AMS interface must be in maintenance mode.

Before you change AMS parameters using maintenance mode:

  • Make sure that this change has been coordinated with affected groups and users.

To configure maintenance mode and AMS parameter change:

  1. Verify the current status of maintenance mode for the AMS.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    [edit]
    user@host> show unified-edge tdf gateway-name system interfaces service-mode
    

    The service-mode option displays the information details about maintenance mode as well as status.

    Maintenance Mode
       MM Active Phase - System is ready to accept configuration changes for all
                      attributes of this object and its sub-hierarchies. 
       MM In/Out Phase - System is ready to accept configuration changes only for
                      non-maintenance mode attributes of this object and 
                      its sub-hierarchies. 
    
    Interface Name 	Gateway Name		Service Mode
    ms-1/0/0			SCG1				Operational
    ms-1/1/0			SCG1				Operational
    ms-2/0/0			SCG1				Operational
    ms-2/1/0			SCG1				Operational
    pfe-0/0/0			SCG1				Operational
    pfe-0/1/0			SCG1				Operational
    pfe-0/2/0			SCG1				Operational
    pfe-0/3/0			SCG1				Operational
    ams1				SCG1				Operational
    
  2. From configuration mode, show the current configuration for the AMS interface.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    user@host# show interfaces interface-name
    load-balancing-options {
        member-interface mams-4/1/0;
        member-interface mams-5/1/0;
         member-failure-options {
            redistribute-all-traffic {
                enable-rejoin;
            }
        }
        high-availability-options {
            many-to-one {
                preferred-backup mams-5/1/0;
            }
        }
    }
    unit 1 {
        family inet;
    }
    unit 2 {
        family inet;
    }
    
  3. On the gateway, place the interface in maintenance mode.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    [edit]
    user@host# set unified-edge tdf gateway-name system interface interface-name service-mode maintenance
    user@host# commit
    
  4. Verify that the AMS interface is in active maintenance mode where configuration changes are accepted for this object and all of its subhierarchies, after you commit the configuration.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    user@host> show unified-edge tdf gateway-name system interfaces service-mode
    
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    Maintenance Mode
       MM Active Phase - System is ready to accept configuration changes for all
                      attributes of this object and its sub-hierarchies. 
       MM In/Out Phase - System is ready to accept configuration changes only for
                      non-maintenance mode attributes of this object and 
                      its sub-hierarchies. 
    
    Interface Name 	Gateway Name		Service Mode
    ms-1/0/0			SCG1				Operational
    ms-1/1/0			SCG1				Operational
    ms-2/0/0			SCG1				Operational
    ms-2/1/0			SCG1				Operational
    pfe-0/0/0			SCG1				Operational
    pfe-0/1/0			SCG1				Operational
    pfe-0/2/0			SCG1				Operational
    pfe-0/3/0			SCG1				Operational
    ams1				SCG1				Maintenance - Active Phase
    
    Note:

    All subscribers serviced by the AMS interface must go to zero. You can wait for these conditions to be met, or use the clear command for the interface (or gateway) to force these conditions.

  5. Delete or change AMS member interfaces and parameters.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    user@host> show unified-edge tdf gateway-name system interfaces service-mode
    [edit unified-edge]
    user@host# delete unified-edge tdf gateway-name system interface interface-name load-balancing-options member-interface mams-interface-name 
    [edit interfaces]
    user@host# set interfaces interface-name load-balancing-options member-interface mams-interface-name 
    user@host# delete interfaces interface-name load-balancing-options high-availability-options many-to-one preferred-backup mams-interface-name 
    user@host# set interfaces interface-name load-balancing-options high-availability-options many-to-one preferred-backup mams-interface-name 
    
  6. Exit maintenance mode and commit the changes.
    content_copy zoom_out_map
    user@host# delete unified-edge tdf gateway-name system interface interface-name service-mode maintenance
    user@host# commit
