Configuring the SRE Interface on the Router
Cisco ISM-SRE and SM-SRE are service modules that run Cisco-authorized applications. The following steps describe the configuration of the service module interface on the router. Applications can also use the MGF interface. For more information on configuring the optional MGF interface refer to: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/access/interfaces/software/feature/guide/ism-sm-sre.html#wp1134657
To configure the Cisco ISM-SRE or SM-SRE interface to the host router, complete the following steps.
From the Host-Router CLI
Enter Privileged EXEC Mode
enable
Enters privileged EXEC mode on the host router.
Enter your password if prompted.
Enter Global Config Mode
configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode on the host router.
Enter Interface Configuration Mode
interface ism 0/0
or
interface sm slot/0
Enters interface configuration mode for the slot and port where the ISM resides.
or
Enters interface configuration mode for the slot and port where the SM resides.
Specify IP Address for Router Side of the Interface
ip address router-side-ip-address subnet-mask
or
ip unnumbered type number
Example:
Router(config-if)# ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
or
Router(config-if)# ip unnumbered gigabitethernet 1/0
Enables IP processing on an interface without assigning an explicit IP address to the interface.
type—Type of interface on which the router has an assigned IP address.
number—Number of the interface on which the router has an assigned IP address.
Note: The unnumbered interface cannot be another unnumbered interface.
Specify the IP Address for the Module Side of the Interface
service-module ip address module-side-ip-address subnet-mask
service-module ip default-gateway gateway-ip-address
Example:
Router(config-if)# service-module ip default-gateway 10.0.0.1
Note: The subnet-mask must be in the same subnet as the host router.
Enable Interface
no shutdown
Return to Global Configuration Mode
end
Establish Static Routes
ip route destination-network-prefix network-prefix-mask gateway-ip-address
Note: When the ip unnumbered command is configured on the SM interface, you must use the ip route command to add a static route to the SM.
Verify Addresses
show running-config
Displays the router's running configuration, so that you can verify address configurations.
The following example shows the configuration of the internal interface between the Cisco ISM-SRE and the router:
interface ISM0/0 ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 service-module ip address 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.0 service-module default-gateway 10.0.0.1 hold-queue 60 out
The following example shows the configuration of the internal interface between the Cisco SM-SRE and the router:
interface SM1/0 ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 service-module ip address 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.0 service-module ip default-gateway 10.0.0.1 hold-queue 60 out
Opening and Closing a Session
To first check the running status and then open or close a session with the Cisco SRE module, perform the following steps:
From the Host-Router CLI
Enter Privileged EXEC Mode
enable
Enter your password if prompted.
Display Status of SM
service-module ism 0/0 status
or
service-module sm slot/0 status
Check for steady state.
Note: If the module is not running, start it with one of the startup commands listed in the "Shutting Down and Starting Up the Cisco SRE Module" section.
Start Session on SM
service-module ism 0/0 session
or
service-module sm slot/0 session
Perform one of the following:
- To interrupt the auto-boot sequence and access the bootloader, quickly type ***
- To start a configuration session, press Enter.
From the Service-Module Interface Enter the bootloader and enter configuration commands on the module as needed.
Example (Bootloader):
ServicesEngine boot-loader> config Example (Configuration): SE-Module> configure terminal SE-Module(config)> SE-Module(config)>exit SE-Module> write
Notice that you do not use the enable command and the prompt does not change from ">".
Enter Configuration Commands
Enters bootloader or configuration commands on the module as needed. Use bootloader commands for debugging and troubleshooting purposes only.
Bootloader command choices include boot, config, exit, help, ping, reboot, show, and verify.
Enter configuration commands. Exit global configuration mode with the exit command. Save your new configuration with the write command. Notice that you do not use the enable command and the prompt does not change from >.
Control-Shift-6 x
Closes the service-module session and returns to the host router CLI.
Note: The service-module session stays up until you clear it in the next step. While it remains up, you can return to it from the router CLI by pressing Enter.
From the Host-Router CLI
Clear the Session
service-module ism 0/0 session clear
or
service-module sm slot/0 session clear
Example:
Router# service-module ism 0/0 session clear
or
Router# service-module sm 1/0 session clear
