5.1.2 Interface Numbering
This section describes the interface numbering scheme on the AR routers.
On the AR routers, interfaces are numbered in the format of slot ID/subcard ID/interface
sequence number.
l Slot ID
The slot ID specifies the ID of the slot where a card resides.
– The SRU of the AR1200 and 2220 is integrated with the chassis, so the slot ID is fixed
as 0.
– When slots need to be combined into one slot, the greater slot ID is used as the new slot
ID. For example, when slot 1 and slot 2 are combined, slot ID 2 is used as the new slot
ID.
l Subcard ID
The subcard ID specifies the ID of a subcard. The cards of AR routers series routers do not
support subcards. Therefore, the subcard ID of the AR routers is fixed as 0.
l Interface sequence number
The interface sequence number indicates the number of each interface on a card.
– There is only one row of interfaces on the interface card. These interfaces are numbered
from left to right starting with 0.
– There are two rows of interfaces on the interface card. These interfaces are numbered
from bottom to top and left to right starting with 0.
