spx suggested-id

Defines a preferred ID for the PE unit being configured.
Syntax
spx suggested-id number
Command Default

The provisional PE does not suggest an ID by default.

Parameters
number
Decimal number from 17 through 56 proposed as the ID for the PE unit being configured.
Modes

Provisional-PE configuration mode

PE configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

The command is available only on the ICX 7450, and only after the spx pe-enable command has been entered. That is, the command is available only on a PE or a provisional PE unit; it is not available from the control bridge (CB).

The suggested ID does not necessarily become the PE ID. Reserved configuration on the CB that matches the new PE unit takes precedence. Furthermore, if the ID is already assigned, it is not reassigned.

All SPX configuration created on the provisional PE must be saved with the write-memory command, followed by the reload command to take effect.

Examples

The following example suggests that the PE being configured be given the PE ID 20 when it joins a CB. Locally, the provisional PE or PE always refers to itself as SPX unit 1.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# spx pe-enable
Enter provisional PE mode. CLI is limited to spx unit 1.
After finishing all configuration, please "write memory" and reload this unit to be a PE.
[Provisional-PE]device(config)# spx suggested-id 20
