Hello, everyone!
This post will tell you one question for how to know the MAC address of an OSN 3500.
Problem description
OSN3500 V100R002C02B018SP01
The OSN is connected to a switch via the ETH management port. It has to be possible interrogating the tables of that switch to know if the connectivity with the OSN is right or not. In order to do that, the MAC address of the OSN has to be known.
Handling procedure
NA.
Root cause
NA
Solution
The MAC address is always that of the active SCC. It has nothing to do with the AUX board. It can be found in one of the back panel connectors of the SCC or CXL.
It always starts with the sequence 00-e0-fc which it is the range assigned to Huawei.
The MAC address can also be known by doing a ping (from a PC connected to the ETH management port) to the external IP address of the NE and then running
The command ARP -a to get the entry of the ARP table that correlated the IP with the MAC.
That's all, I welcome everyone to leave a message and exchange in the comment area!
Thank you!
