Associating USTATs With Interfaces

Next, we need to associate the three USTAT modules with the USTAT interface we configured earlier.

Enter the interface command to change to configuration mode for the USTAT interface. Then enter the module command once for each of the three modules that will operate from this interface:

interface fastethernet 0/2
 
module ustat provider_1
 
module ustat provider_2
 
module ustat provider_3
 
end
 

 

The interface configuration block which you configured earlier should now look like this:

interface FastEthernet 0/2
 
 description “USTAT Modules”
 
 ip address 172.16.6.6 255.255.255.224
 
 module ustat provider_1
 
 module ustat provider_2
 
 module ustat provider_3
 
 end
 

 

The xSeries device now has a basic configuration which will allow it to peer with your edge routers and begin evaluating traffic (though it does not yet have a source of measurement data).

Figure 7 depicts your xSeries’s configuration at this stage:

The next step is to configure your edge routers to peer with the xSeries device. See Chapter 2: Configuring Your Routers in the CNA Advanced Monitoring Guide.
