Configuration procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2. Create a Reth interface and enter its view.

interface reth interface-number

By default, no Reth interfaces exist.

If the specified Reth interface already exists, this command enters the view of the Reth interface.

3. Assign a member interface to the Reth interface.

member interface interface-type interface-number priority priority

By default, a Reth interface does not have member interfaces.

4. (Optional.) Configure the expected bandwidth for the Reth interface.

bandwidth bandwidth-value

By default, the expected bandwidth is 10000 kbps.

5. (Optional.) Configure a description for the Reth interface.

description text

The default description of a Reth interface is interface-name Interface (for example, Reth1 Interface).

6. (Optional.) Set the MTU of the Reth interface.

mtu size

By default, the MTU of a Reth interface is 1500 bytes.

7. Set the MAC address for the Reth interface.

mac-address mac-address

By default, a Reth interface uses the device's bridge MAC address as its MAC address.

Typically, this command is not required. When Reth interfaces on different devices in a network have the same MAC address, the devices might fail to communicate correctly. To eliminate the MAC address conflicts, you can use this command to modify MAC addresses for the Reth interfaces.

8. Bring up the Reth interface.

undo shutdown

By default, a Reth interface is up.

9. Enable subinterface rate statistics collection on the Reth interface.

sub-interface rate-statistic

By default, subinterface rate statistics collection is disabled on a Reth interface.

After you execute this command, the device periodically refreshes subinterface rate statistics for the Reth interface. The statistics is displayed in the Last 300 seconds input rate and Last 300 seconds output rate fields of the command output from the display interface reth command.

10. (Optional.) Restore the default settings for the Reth interface.
