Labnario Huawei From Scratch
As you know I try to avoid products descriptions here, on this blog. But last time I had possibility to see ATN905 boxes, available in the indoor and outdoor types. You can install them in various environment. The application scenarios of ATN905 are divided into the small-cell base station bearer scenario and the Ethernet demarcation device (EDD) scenario.
Let’s look at the pictures of the two types of this router:
from Huawei CLI – check …
Very useful command, especially when you are preparing and executing upgrade of a software of Huawei carrier class devices, like NE40E and CX600. Let’s look what can be checked by this command:
<labnario>check ? hardware-compatibility hardware compatibility startup Check the version of the resource file system-software system-software version check version
I personally use “check hardware-compatibility” before all planned upgrades. During a preparation phase of an upgrade, you have to read software release notes, to be sure that all software and hardware components will be compatible with the new software. You can check hardware compatibility by the command, instead of searching software documents.
Imagine that you’ve just uploaded a new software to CFcard of a router. The new software is v600r006c00spc300.

It’s very simple, isn’t it?
new options in display elabel command
Some time ago I described how to display electronic labels. As you probably could see, the displayed information looked illegibly, especially for budding engineers.
Starting from V6R6 software of carrier class devices (like Huawei NE40E, CX600), it looks much better. You have all the information at a glance:

Huawei eNSP – news
We have been waiting and finally we have a simulator of Huawei firewall USG5500. They also added WDS function of WLAN and a new simulation device of WLAN – AC6605.
I am just downloading the newest version…
For those who are interested I am sending a link to it:
why does subinterface fail to forward packets
Let’s imagine that we have a simple topology like below:
Configure subinterfaces on both AR routers for VLAN tag termination:
[R1]interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0.100 [R1-GigabitEthernet0/0/0.100]ip address 10.0.0.1 24 [R1-GigabitEthernet0/0/0.100]dot1q termination vid 100 [R2]int GigabitEthernet 0/0/0.100 [R2-GigabitEthernet0/0/0.100]ip address 10.0.0.2 24 [R2-GigabitEthernet0/0/0.100]dot1q termination vid 100
Try to ping IP address of neighboring router:
[R1]ping 10.0.0.2
