Using VLANs provides multiple isolated LANs (normally mapped to different IP subnets) over
the limited number of physical LAN connectors.
Network-interfaces are said to be created “on top” of phy-interfaces (or “bound” to them or
“refer” to them).

phy-interface elements are created for each physical connector planned to be used. Avoid
creating a phy-interface for a port that will remain unconnected. This will cause false and
unnecessary alarms.
Management interfaces go by the name “wancom<port>”
• wancom0: Used for all management operations (Telnet, SNMP, FTP…)
• wancom1 and wancom2: Used for HA pairing
• The names wancom0, wancom1, and wancom2 are coded in the software, so no slot
must be specified for them (their implicit slot number is 0).

This is good for system security but restrictive for troubleshooting (for example, you cannot
PING). Additional parameters exist in order to temporarily override this default behavior.

The interfaces only support the shown protocols. Specifically, the media interfaces, by default,
only respond to certain VoIP protocols, which reduces the likelihood of hacking. Some
exceptions (for example, enabling ICMP) can be enabled (for the shortest necessary period of
time) for the media interfaces.

Each of these parameters can hold a list of IP addresses that must fall within the network-
interface IP subnet.
Any address listed for any of the four protocols must be also included in the hip-ip-list.
Commands used to add/remove items in these lists:
• add-ftp-ip, remove-ftp-ip, add-hip-ip, remove-hip-ip, and so on

• Physical port redundancy can be used when only two out of the four media ports are
used.
• All four ports are cabled to a L2 switch. When an active link goes down (for example,
because of cable being disconnected) the standby port becomes active.
• Links are sensed every one second.
• The feature is global and it is configured in system-config element.
• Switchover can be done manually.
Note: The SBC maintains a “health score” that reflects the various h/w subsystems status. A
score of 100 means an issue-free system. The health score will decrease upon port failover,
but not at the amount that will cause a total failover in an HA pair setup. In an HA pair setup, a
machine failover will occur if both ports on the same slot fail.

Show running-config only provides the static configuration information, not the real-time
status!
