Important Notes

The following are some important notes for Management IP Interface and Virtual Routing Interface.

Video Packet Routing Requirements

A routing protocol, such as OSPF or IS-IS, must be enabled on the cBR-8 in order for video data packets from the head end to reach the virtual QAMs. On the cBR-8, enable a routing protocol as described in the routing configuration guide.

Once the routing protocol is set up correctly, the cBR-8 will advertise the internal static routes for the video data path to the head end.

The user needs to configure the Virtual Edge Input (VEI) with a routable IP address from within the customer's network. More information, see Configuring Virtual Edge Input under Logical Edge Device.
