LMA Service Configuration Mode Commands
▀ bind address
▄ Command Line Interface Reference, StarOS Release 17
6862
Usage
Associate the LMA service to a specific logical IP address. The logical IP address or interface takes on the
characteristics of an S2a or S5/S8 interface that provides the session connectivity to an HSGW (S2a) or S-
GW (S5/S8). Only one interface can be bound to a service. The interface should be configured prior to
issuing this command.
This command also sets a limit as to the number of simultaneous subscribers sessions that can be facilitated
by the service/interface at any given time.

This command also sets a limit as to the number of simultaneous subscribers sessions that can be facilitated

When configuring the
max-subscribers
option, be sure to consider the following:
The total number of S2a or S5/S8 interfaces you will configure
The total number of subscriber sessions that all of the configured interfaces may handle during peak
busy hours
An average bandwidth per session multiplied by the total number of sessions
The type of physical port (10/100Base-T or 1000Base-Tx) that these interfaces will be bound to
Taking these factors into account and distributing your subscriber session across all available interfaces will
allow you to configure your interfaces to optimally handle sessions without degraded performance.

Example
The following command would bind the logical IP interface with the address of
4551:0db8:85a3:08d3:3319:8a2e:0370:1344
to the LMA service and specifies that a maximum of
300,000
simultaneous subscriber sessions can be facilitated by the interface/service at any given time:
