Native R2 6 Slot MTCA.4 chassis CCT AM G64 Xeon CPU Vadatech AMC217 GbE switch Nat-Phys-80 MCH

To optimize the setup following configuration settings were applied:

on Vadatech AMC217:

• connect via local LAN (192.168.40.230) on web browser
• disable spanning tree
• disable Port 1 on mTCA backplane

on NAT MCH:

• provide web access via console (DHCP on)
• via web access disable port 1 and activate Port VLAN
• disable in Port VLAN all connections from AMC1-6 to FRT1 and CPU1
• enable only link between FRT1 and CPU1 and UPDB and CPU1.
• A working config can be loaded here.
