Method 1: Prepare a new topology by reconfiguring PE IDs on the CB

  1. Disconnect PE unit 18 and 19 from the CB.
    Note: The pe-id configuration cannot be changed on a live unit.
  2. Change the pe-id configuration on CB port 1/1/10 (from 17, 18, and 19 to 17 and 19).
  3. Add PE ID 18 under the configuration for SPX port 1/1/5.
  4. As shown in the CB configuration on the right in the previous figure, connect PE unit 18 to SPX port 1/1/5, and connect PE unit 19 to PE unit 17 on SPX port 1/1/10.
  5. Enter the write memory command to save the configuration.

The following example changes the port configuration for SPX ports 1/1/10 and 1/1/5.

ICX7650-48F Router(config)# spx cb-config
ICX7650-48F Router(config-spx-cb)# pe-id 1/1/10 17 19
ICX7650-48F Router(config-spx-cb)# pe-id 1/1/5 18
ICX7650-48F Router(config-spx-cb)# exit
ICX7650-48F Router(config)# exit
