General Rules
ip|engine identification
You can precisely identify the type of any ip|engine in your network through its Serial Number.
The Serial Number is made of 12 characters as follows: MmmyyEnnnnRr, where:
• | M: Manufacturer initials |
• | mm: month of manufacture (01 to 12) |
• | yy: year of manufacture (18 for 2018) |
• | E: engine type |
W |
ip|e 30so |
X |
ip|e 30ax |
I |
ip|e 40so |
J |
ip|e 40ax |
U |
ip|e 40so V2 |
V |
ip|e 40ax V2 |
K |
ip|e 400ax |
A |
ip|e 2000ax-T |
B |
ip|e 2000ax-Sx |
C |
ip|e 2000ax-Lx |
D |
ip|e 2000ax-10GSr |
E |
ip|e 2000ax-10GLr |
• | nnnn: serial n° (0001 to 9999) |
• | Rr: revision (R for major revision, r for minor revision): starting with A0 |
Example: A0218X0001A0
corresponds to a Serial Number of the first ip|e 30ax manufactured by Aaeon on February 2018.
Note: The Serial Numbers provided as examples in the use cases of the current documentation are virtual.
virtual|engine identification
The Serial Number of a virtual|engine is a UUID generated by the system.
Example: 564D2D58-2F7A-A81E-C84D-C95F3DA3C83C
The following diagrams display SD-WAN Orchestrator automatic LAN side IP address allocation with an ip|engine in full router, hybrid and bridge modes. All three WAN interfaces of the ip|engine are enabled. Note that you may also configure these addresses manually.
You must configure the Management IP address in the SD-WAN Orchestrator.
• | Light blue arrows represent iBGP automatic connections |
• | Dark blue arrows represent iBGP connections you must configure in the SD-WAN Orchestrator |
• | Green arrows represent the connections you must configure on the Core Router (the SD-WAN Orchestrator is not used) |
Warning: iBGP configuration is done with the internal LAN interfaces of the embedded RT routers of the ip|engine.
Full Router Mode
|
RT1 IP address = Mgt IP address +1 RT2 IP address = Mgt IP address +2 RT3 IP address = Mgt IP address +3 |
Hybrid Mode
|
RT2 IP address = Mgt IP address +2 RT3 IP address = Mgt IP address +3 |
Bridge Mode
|
There is no automatic LAN side IP address allocation with an ip|engine in bridge mode. |
