cusp agent (ofa)

Function

The cusp agent command configures a CUSP connection as a control channel between a forwarder and controller and displays the CUSP forwarder view.

The undo cusp agent command deletes the CUSP connection configuration as well as all configurations in the CUSP forwarder view.

By default, no CUSP connection is configured for a control channel.

This command is supported only on the NetEngine 8000 F1A.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

In a CU separation scenario, the controller and forwarders communicate through control channels. The control channels can be established using various protocols. Currently, the VRP uses the CUSP protocol to establish the control channels. To configure a CUSP connection as a control channel between a forwarder and controller, run the cusp agent command.

NOTE:

This command is delivered by the vBRAS-CP to the vBRAS-UP.

Follow-up Procedure

Run the transport-address command to configure a local IP address for the CUSP connection.

Precautions

This command is supported only on the admin VS.

If the undo cusp agent command is run, all configurations in the CUSP forwarder view are deleted.

Example

# Create a CUSP agent named abc.
