WeOSTwo Consist Networks with One ETB Node HowTo
This document describes how to configure a consist with one consist network managed by one ETBN in a. The consist is depicted in Figure 1.
The result of the inauguration will be a network where ETBN1 has the ETBN ID 1, the IP-address 10.128.0.1 (based on the ETBN ID and since the network is configured as TCMS). CN1 will attain the network IP 10.128.64.0/18 and CN2 10.128.128.0/18.

Configuration activated. Remember "copy run start" to save to flash (NVRAM). etbn1:/#>
Note
In this HowTo, it is assumed that the ETB uses crossover cabling. For this reason, all ETB ports on both ETBNs use the same MDI-X mode. If non-crossover cabling is used, these settings must be changed for two of the inward-facing ETB ports.
Inauguration Result
Using the show ttdp command we now verify that we have recevied the intended network
configuration. Highlighted in orange are the values that are of interest.

Here it is possible to verofy the inaugurated ETBN ID and IP, the CN numbering and CN network IP. To highlight the values, the values are marked as bold in the example.
