Configuring the NE ID and NE IP

Typically an NE automatically generates an NE IP according to its NE ID. The automatically generated NE IP changes when the NE ID changes. When you replan your network or an NE ID conflict occurs, you can manually configure the NE ID and NE IP. The manually configured NE IP does not change when the NE ID changes.

To configure the NE ID and NE IP:

Step

Command

Remarks

3. Configure the NE ID.

ne-id id-number

By default, the NE ID is automatically generated by using the 24 low-order bits of the bridge MAC address.

4. Configure the NE IP.

ne-ip ip-address { mask-length | mask }

By default, the NE IP is automatically generated by using 129 as the eight high-order bits and the NE ID as the rest 16 bits. The mask length is 32.
