END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT (EULA)
End User License Agreement (EULA)

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR SOFTWARE PROGRAMS AND EMBEDDED SOFTWARE IN PRODUCTS
1) EULA
All products which consist of or include software (including operating software for hardware sup-
plied by Supplier and software in object code format that is embedded in any hardware) and/or any
documentation shall be subject to the End User License Agreement (“EULA”) attached hereto as Ex-
hibit A. Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed to be bound by all of the terms, conditions and obli-
gations therein and shall ensure that all subsequent purchasers and licensees of such products shall
be further bound by all of the terms, conditions and obligations therein. For software and/or docu-
mentation delivered in connection with these Terms and Conditions, that is not produced by Supplier
and which is separately licensed by a third party, Buyer’s rights and responsibilities with respect to
such software or documentation shall be governed in accordance with such third party’s applicable
software license. Buyer shall, on request, enter into one or more separate “click-accept” license
agreements or third party license agreements in respect thereto. Supplier shall have no further ob-
ligations with respect to such products beyond delivery thereof. Where Buyer is approved by Suppli-
er to resell products, Buyer shall provide a copy of the EULA and applicable third party license
agreements to each end user with delivery of such products and prior to installation of any software.
Buyer shall notify Supplier promptly of any breach or suspected breach of the EULA or third party
license agreements and shall assist Supplier in efforts to preserve Supplier’s or its supplier’s intellec-
tual property rights including pursuing an action against any breaching third parties. For purposes
of these terms and conditions: “software” shall mean scripts, programs, macros, computer pro-
grams, application programming and other interfaces, tools and other instructions and sets of in-
structions for hardware to follow, including SQL and other query languages, hypertext markup
language (“html”) and other computer mark-up languages; “hardware” shall mean mainframes,
personal computers, servers, client/server stations, network equipment, routers, semi-conductor
chips, communication lines and other equipment; and “documentation” shall mean documentation
supplied by Supplier relating to the development, use, installation, implementation, integration,
configuration, operation, modification, maintenance or support of any software.
2) INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Buyer shall not alter, obscure, remove, cancel or otherwise interfere with any markings (including
without limitation any trademarks, logos, trade names, or labelling applied by Supplier). Buyer ac-
knowledges that Supplier is the sole owner of the trademarks used in association with the products
and that Buyer has no right, title or interest whatsoever in such trademarks and any goodwill asso-
ciated therewith and that all goodwill associated with such trademarks is owned by and shall enure
exclusively to and for the benefit of Supplier. Further, Buyer shall not represent in any manner that
it has acquired any ownership rights in such trademarks or other intellectual property of Supplier.
Supplier will defend any claim against Buyer that any iS5Com branded product supplied under these
Terms and Conditions infringes third party patents or copyrights (a “Patent Claim”) and will indem-
nify Buyer against the final judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction or any settle-
ments arising out of a Patent Claim, provided that Buyer: (1) promptly notifies Supplier in writing of
the Patent Claim; and (2) cooperates with Supplier in the defence of the Patent Claim, and grants
Supplier full and exclusive control of the defence and settlement of the Patent Claim and any subse-
iii
quent appeal. If a Patent Claim is made or appears likely, Buyer agrees to permit Supplier to procure
for Buyer the right to continue using the affected product, or to replace or modify the product with
one that is at least functionally equivalent. If Supplier determines that none of those alternatives is
reasonably available, then Buyer will return the product and Supplier will refund Buyer’s remaining
net book value of the product calculated according to generally accepted accounting principles.
Supplier has no obligation for any Patent Claim related to: (1) compliance with any designs, specifi-
cations, or instructions provided by Buyer or a third party on Buyer’s behalf; (2) modification of a
product by Buyer or a third party; (3) the amount or duration of use which Buyer makes of the prod-
uct, revenue earned by Buyer from services it provides that use the product, or services offered by
Buyer to external or internal Buyers; (4) combination, operation or use of a product with non-Sup-
plier products, software or business processes; or (5) use of any product in any country other than
the country or countries specifically authorized by Supplier.
3) EXPORT CONTROLS AND SANCTIONS
a) In these Term and Conditions, “Export Controls and Sanctions” means the export control and
sanctions laws of each of Canada, the US and any other applicable country, territory or juris-
diction including the United Nations, European Union and the United Kingdom, and any regu-
lations, orders, guides, rules, policies, notices, determinations or judgements issued
thereunder or imposed thereby.
b) Supplier products, documentation and services provided under these Terms and Conditions
may be subject to Canadian, U.S. and other country Export Controls and Sanctions. Buyer shall
accept and comply with all applicable Export Control and Sanctions in effect and as amended
from time to time pertaining to the export, re-export and transfer of Supplier’s products,
documentation and services. Buyer also acknowledges and agrees that the export, re-export
or transfer of Supplier products, documentation and services contrary to applicable Export
Controls and Sanctions may be a criminal offence.

Conditions to any individual or entity in violation of any aforementioned Export Controls and
Sanctions; (ii) it will not directly or indirectly export, re-export or transfer any such products,

CONTEXT-SENSITIVE HELP
CHAPTER 2 COMMAND LINE INTERFACE
Command Line Interface

2. Command Line Interface
This chapter explains how to access Command Line Interface (CLI) for the switch and elaborates on the
different CLI command modes. It also gives guidelines on context sensitive help.
The CLI can be used to configure switch from a console terminal connected to the serial port of the switch
or from a remote terminal using TELNET.
The CLI supports a simple login authentication mechanism. The authentication is based on a username
and password provided by the user during login. The user "admin" is created by default with password
"admin".
NOTE: A new user can be created, or an existing user can be deleted, and the own password or password
of the other users can be modified, only if login as a admin.
When login process is started, the username and password have to be given at the login prompt to access
the CLI shell:
iS5Comm Login: admin
Password: admin
iS5Comm#
The Privileged Exec is now available for the user. The next section provides a detailed description of the
various modes available for the switch.
CLI commands are also case sensitive.
CLI commands will be successful only if the dependencies are satisfied for a particular command that is
issued. The general dependency is that the module specific commands are available only when the
respective module is ‘enabled’ or they are used only in the suitable mode. Appropriate error messages
will be displayed if the dependencies are not satisfied.
2.1. Context-Sensitive Help

The switch’s CLI framework offers context-sensitive help. The user can type a question mark (?) anytime
during a session to get help. The help can be invoked in several ways. It is not displayed as a whole and
is available only for the specific token from where it is invoked
Examples of possible scenarios are given below.
When a user types a character followed immediately by a question mark (?), this displays the current
possible tokens without a help string.
3
CLI COMMAND MODES
iS5Comm(config)# service?
dhcp related configuration
dhcp-relay DHCP relay related configuration
dhcp-server DHCP server related configuration
Some of the basic concepts implemented for context-sensitive help are:
• The next possible tokens are listed only in the lexical order and not in the order as available in the
syntax or command structure.
• All possible tokens are listed along with the help string, even though the command is ambiguous.
Any ambiguous command and value range errors are taken care only during the execution of the
command.
• The help tokens provided within <> brackets denote that the user should input values of specified
format. For example, <string(32)> represents that the user should input a string of size varying from
1 to 32.
• The help tokens provided within () brackets denotes that the user should input only the values
represented. For example, (1-4094) represents that the user should input value within the
mentioned range alone.
• The format is directly provided as help token for some non-keyword such as IP address, IP mask,
MAC address and so on. For example, aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa represents that a MAC address of this
Format should be provided.
• Only the most commonly used format is provided as help token for some non-keywords such as
IPv6 address. But the command supports most of the valid formats. For example, AAAA::BBBB
represents the IPv6 address, but the command will accept the format AAAA:B::BBBB.
• The help token <CR> along with help string explaining the operation of the command is displayed
if the command can be executed at that point (errors are handled only during the execution).
2.2. CLI Command Modes

Depending on the CLI mode, iS5Comm prompt will be specific. This cannot be changed by the end user.
For example, when the command mode is Global Configuration, the prompt display will be
iS5Comm(config)#.
The Hierarchical structure of the command modes is shown below. See them on the figure below.

2.3. Stopping Long Running Commands

Some CLI commands generate a long series of screen output. Typing ‘q’ will abort this text and quickly
return the user to the command prompt.
This section will describe how to manage the text flow for commands that generate screens worth of text
output. Examples will be provided using the show running-config command.
When a command generates more than one screen worth of text, the user will be prompted to advance
the screen when the following text appears --More--.
iS5Comm# show running-config
#Building configuration...!!
syslog localstorage
syslog relay
syslog filename-one "syslog.log"
logging local flash emergencies file syslog.log

in Global Configuration Mode. The no form of the command deletes the specified user.
username
username <user-name> [password [0 | 7 | LINE] <string(8-20)>] [privilege
<1-15>] [confirm-password [0 | 7 | LINE] <string(8-20)>] [status enable]
no username
no username <user-name>
17
USERNAME
Parameters
<user-name> Specify the login user name to be created. It must be a a minimum

of 8 and maximum of 64 characters.
• An user name is allowed to have any printable ASCII char-
acter (range 33-126) except colon character.
• Usernames are allowed to have special characters. All print-

able characters are supported except the following:
– Colon(:)—this is because colon is used as a delimiter in
the users file. A username with colon character will
affect the parsing of the users file and corrupt the data-
base.
– Single(') and Doubt Quote(“)—this is an escape
sequence character which shall not be parsed by the
implementation
– Backslash(\)—this is an escape sequence character
which shall not be parsed by the implementation
– Semi-Colon(;)
– Pipe(|)
– Question mark(?)
<user-name> NOTE: a factory reset must beperformed in order to downgrade
(cont) from a version that supports 64 character username to a version
that supports only 20 characters. Without the reset, if there was a
username configured with greater than 20 characters, post down-
grade the version would crash.
password Specifies the password to be entered by the user to login to the
system, and password encryption to be used. The size password
entered must be a a minimum of 8 and maximum of 20 characters
containing at least one uppercase, one lowercase, one number
and one special character.
The password encryption options are as follows:
0 Integer Uses the unencrypted password
7 Integer Uses the hidden password
LINE Uses the Line password; This feature is currently not supported
18
USERNAME
integer Specifies that the size of password entered must be a minimum of

<string(8-64) 8 and maximum of 64 characters.
>
privilege integer Applies restriction to the user for accessing the CLI commands.
<1-15> This values ranges between 1 and 15. For example, a user ID
configured with privilege level as 4 can access only the commands
having privilege ID lesser than or equal to 4

4. System Features
A rich set of system features are available to the user, such as login services, copying / writing facilities,
duplex / negotiation support, and many other capabilities.
Some features have special hardware requirements, and others have special design considerations.
4.1. ip address
To set the IP address for an interface, use the command ip address in Interface Configuration Mode. The
no form of the command delete the IP Address configured on the given interface, resets the IP address
of the interface to its default value, and deletes the IP address used in VPN and firewall.
ip address
ip address <ucast_addr> <ip_mask> [secondary {node0 | node1}] | dhcp
{client-id (FastEthernet <string(32)> | GigabitEthernet <string(32)> |
Port-channel <string(32)> | Vlan <string(32)>) | hostname <string(32)>} |

hostname <string(32)>}
no ip address
no ip address {<ucast_addr> | cybsec}
43
IP ADDRESS
Parameters
<ucast_addr> A.B.C. Sets the IP address for an interface. If the network in which the switch
D is implemented contains a server such as DHCP server, dynamically
allocating IP address, the configured IP address should not be within
the range of the addresses that will be allocated by the server to the
other switches. This precaution avoids creation of IP address conflicts
between the switches.
<ip_mask> A.B.C. Sets the subnet mask for the configured IP address. The configured
D subnet mask should be in the same subnet of the network in which the
switch is placed.
secondary A.B.C. Sets the configured IP address as an additional IP address for the
D interface (the configured address is used as secondary address instead
of primary address).
NOTE: this parameter is not supported on OOB and PPP interface.

This command displays the device’s health status and error reason. The list of health-check status for
device is as follows:
• upAndRunning - Indicates that device is up and running.
• downNonRecoverableErr - Indicates that the health status of device is down due to occurence of
some critical error.
• upRecoverableRuntimeErr - Indicates that the health status of device is up but indicates the
occurence of a runtime error that is recoverable.
The list of error reasons for is as follows;
• None - Indicates no errors
• nonRecovTaskInitializationFailure - Indicates the occurence of non-recoverable failure during Task
initialization.
• nonRecovInsufficientStartupMemory - Indicates that there is insufficient memory for successful
startup. This error is non-recoverable and requires sufficient memory to be available in the system
for successful device startup.

4.60. audit-logging
Audit logging uses Syslog platform as tools to send/store Audit logs. So for allowing the Audit-logging to
work, the Syslog should configured and working. Audit-logging uses configuration, supported by Syslog.
Audit logging provides two ways to save audit messages: local and remote. Both ways work inde-
pendently between each other. Both local and remote logging are disabled by default.
audit-logging
audit-logging { [ local [ enable | filename <string(128)> ] | remote [ enable |
[ipv4-address <ip_addr>] [port <integer(1-65535)>] [{ tcp | udp | tls}] ] }
131
AUDIT-LOGGING
Parameters
local enable enable the local audit-logging

local filename <string set the local audit-logging file name
(128)>
remote enable enable the remote audit-logging
remote [ipv4-address <ip_addr>] set the remote server parameters
[port <integer(1-65535)>] [{ tcp |
udp | tls}]
Mode
Examples
Audit messages are saved to the local file, which can be default file or user defined file.
Local file name can not be changed if the local audit-logging enabled.
The way to change the file name is:
1) disable the local audit-logging (if enabled)
2) change the file name
3) enable the local audit-logging (if required)
Example
iS5Comm(config)# no audit-logging local
iS5Comm(config)# audit-logging local filename LOCAL_FILE.txt
iS5Comm(config)# audit-logging local enable
Default paramters:
1. local logging status: disabled
2. local file name is “audit.txt”
Remote Logging Example

Remote audit-logging is done by sending the audit messages to the remote server by tcp or udp protocol.
To enable the remote audit logging user should configure the server ip , port and protocol first.
132
AUDIT-LOGGING
The way to change the server parameters is:

1) disable the remote audit-logging (if enabled)
2) To enable TLS use the “ secure logging crypto key” command.
3) change the remote server parameters
4) enable the remote audit-logging (if required)
iS5Comm(config)# no audit-logging remote
iS5Comm(config)# audit-logging remote ipv4-address 192.168.0.100 port 5000 tls
iS5Comm(config)# audit-logging remote enable
iS5Comm(config)#
NOTE: To enable TLS protocol, the certificates should be present
Default parameters:
1) remote logging status: disabled
2) remote server ipv4 address: NOT_VALID (0.0.0.0)
3) remote server tcp/udp port number: 514
4) remote server tls port number: 6514
5) protocol: udp
Disabling Audit-Logging
iS5Comm(config)# no audit-logging remote
iS5Comm(config)# no audit-logging local
Seeing all available local files including current

All audit-logging files can be shown by “show audit-logging loglist”

UFD Configuration
In the above topology Raptor 1 and Raptor 2 are configured with one uplink and one down link respec-
tively. A UFD group is created and both uplink ports and down link ports are added to the group for moni-
toring.
In a typical scenario as shown above where client can reach server from primary and backup links i.e. via
Raptor 1 and Raptor 2, when Raptor 1 detects the link failure with its uplink with server, it shall make
downlink with client disable. This shall switch the client to the backup link, i.e. with server reachable via
Raptor 2.

SET ENTITY PHYSICAL-INDEX
Parameters
vlan Enter a string for description of the L3 VLAN interface.

Enter a value for an interface to be displayed.
<vlan_vfi • <vlan –id> - VLAN ID is a unique value that represents the specific
_id> VLAN. This value ranges from 1 to 4094.
• vfi-id>. - VFI ID is a VLAN created in the system which contains Pseudo
wires and Attachment Circuits as member ports . This creates a logical
LAN for the VPLS service. This value ranges from 4096 to 65535.
NOTE: The VLAN ID 4095 is reserved and may be used to indicate a wildcard
match for the VID in management operations or Filtering Database
entries.For example if 100 VFIs are supported, the maximum number of VFI
supported will be restricted to maximum number of VLANs + 100. An error
message is displayed for any value beyond this range.
NOTE: VFI IDs 4096 and 4097 are reserved identifiers used in MPLS PW.
NOTE: The theoretical maximum for the maximum number of VFI is 65535
but the actual number of VFI supported is a sizing constant. Based on this,
the maximum number of VFI ID accepted in the management interface is
restricted.

4.109. set entity physical-index

To configure the read-write objects of the physical components present in the system which defines a
greater than zero value used to identify a physical entity, use the command set entity physical-index in
Global Configuration Mode. The no form of the command deletes the configuration.
Managed objects are accessed via a virtual information store, termed the Management Information Base
or MIB. MIB objects are generally accessed through the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
182
Entity MIB is a standardized way of representing a single agent that supports multiple instances of one
MIB. With the entity MIB support in iss, all instances of the MIBs registered with agent are identifiable,
so that the NMS (Network Management System) can easily communicate with the particular instance /
logical entity. MIB also provides the complete hierarchal hardware component view to the user.
The single agent present in each of these cases implies a relationship binds these entities. Effectively,
there is some "overall" physical entity which houses the sum of the things managed by that one
agent,i.e., there are multiple "logical" entities within a single physical entity.
A "physical entity" or "physical component" represents an identifiable physical resource within a
managed system. Zero or more logical entities may utilize a physical resource at any given time. Deter-
mining which physical components are represented by an agent in the EntPhysicalTable is an implemen-
tation-specific matter. Typically, physical resources (e.g., communications ports, backplanes, power
supplies, the overall chassis) that can be managed via functions associated with one or more logical enti-
ties, are included in the MIB. Reference, RFC 4133.
The physical index is an arbitrary value that uniquely identifies the physical entity which can be small
positive integer.
set entity physical-index

set entity physical-index <integer (1-2147483647)> [asset-id <SnmpAdmin-
String (1-32)>] [serial-number <SnmpAdminString (1-32)>] [alias-name
<SnmpAdminString (1-32)>] [uris <OCTET-STRING (1-255)>]
no set entity physical-index

no set entity physical-index <integer (1-2147483647)> [asset-id]
[serial-number] [alias-name] [uris]
183
Parameters
<integer Enter to specify the Index of the physical entity. This value ranges
(1-2147483647)> from 1 to 2147483647
asset-id Enter to specify the asset tracking identifier for the physical
entity.
<SnmpAdminString Integer Enter a value for asset tracking identifier. This value is a string of
(1-32)> size varying between 1 and 32 characters. Asset tracking
identifier is not needed for the physical entities (such as repeater
ports within a repeater module) that are not considered as a field
replaceable unit by the vendor. A zero-length string is returned
for these entities.
serial-number Enter to specify the vendor-specific serial number string for the
physical entity.
<SnmpAdminString Integer Enter a value for serial-number identifier. This value is a string of
(1-32)> size varying between 1 and 32 characters. Serial number string is
not needed for the physical entities (such as repeater ports
within a repeater module) that are not considered as a field
replaceable unit by the vendor. A zero-length string is returned
for these entities
alias-name Enter to specify the alias name for the physical entity.
<SnmpAdminString Integer Enter a value for alias-name identifier. This value provides a
(1-32)> non-volatile handle for the entity and is a string of size varying
between 1 and 32 characters.
uris Enter to specify the additional identification information
(URI-Uniform Resource Indicator) about the physical entity.
<OCTET-STRING Integer Enter a value for URI. This value ranges from 1 to 255
(1-255)>
Mode
Default
• assetId - Zero-length string, on initial instantiation of the physical entity.
184
SHOW ENTITY
• Zero-length string, on initial instantiation of the physical entity, if a serial number is unknown or
non-existent. Correct vendor-assigned serial number, on initial instantiation of the physical entity,
if the serial number is available to the SNMP agent
• alias-name - Zero-length string, on initial instantiation of the physical entity. The SNMP agent may
also set the value to a locally unique default value.
Prerequisites
• If write access is implemented for an instance of asset ID and a value is written into the instance,
SNMP agent should retain the value as long as the entity associated with the instance remains
instantiated. This instantiation includes the instantiation across all re-initialization / reboot of the
NMS. and instantiation resulting in a change of the physical entity’s index value.
• If write access is implemented for an instance of the serial number string and a value is written into
the instance, SNMP agent should retain the value as long as the entity associated with the instance
remains instantiated. This instantiation includes the instantiation across all re-initialization / reboot
of the NMS. and instantiation resulting in a change of the physical entity’s index value.
• If the agents cannot provide non-volatile storage for the serial number string, then the agents are
not required to implement write access for the the serial number string object.
• Implementations that can correctly identify the serial numbers of all installed physical entities are
not required to provide write access to the serial number string object
• If write access is implemented for an instance of the alias name and a value is written into the
instance, SNMP agent should retain the value as long as the entity associated with the instance
remains instantiated. This instantiation includes the instantiation across all re-initialization / reboot
of the NMS. and instantiation resulting in a change of the physical entity’s index value.

185
SHOW ENTITY
Parameters
physical Enter to specify displaying of the physical entities which are

physical components that represents an identifiable physical
resource within a managed system. Zero or more logical entities
may utilize a physical resource at any given time.
index Enter to a value for the physical entity, logical entity, mapping of
logical and physical entities with external identifiers, or
containment relationship details of physical components
respectively. This value ranges from 1 to 2147483647.
<integer Enter to display the IP interface configuration for the specified
(1-2147483647)> VLAN ID.
logical Enter to specify displaying of multiple logical entities within a
single physical entity. The overall physical entity contains
multiple (smaller) physical entities and each logical entity is
associated with a particular physical entity.
lp-mapping Enter to specify displaying of the mapping of logical and physical
entities, interfaces, and non-interface ports managed by a single
agent. The LPMapping contains mappings between logical
entities and physical components supporting that entity. A
logical entity can map to more than one physical component,
and more than one logical entity can map to the same physical
component.
alias-mapping Enter to specify displaying of the mapping of logical and physical
entity with alias external object identifiers values. This allows
resources managed with other MIBs (e.g. repeater ports, bridge
ports, physical and logical interfaces) to be identified in the
physical entity hierarchy.
phy-containment Enter to specify displaying of the simple mapping between the
physical contained values for each container / containee
relationship in the managed system.

RADIUS-SERVER HOST
CHAPTER 5 RADIUS
RADIUS
5. RADIUS
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service), is widely used in network environments, and is a
client/server protocol and software that enables remote access servers to communicate with a central
server to authenticate dial-in users and authorize their access to the requested system or service. It is
commonly used for embedded network devices such as routers, modem servers, switches and so on.
RADIUS is currently the de-facto standard for remote authentication. It is very prevalent in both new and
legacy systems. It is used for several reasons:
• RADIUS facilitates centralized user administration (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting).

• RADIUS provides some protection against an active attacker.
5.1. radius-server host

To configure the RADIUS client with the parameters host, timeout, key, retransmit, use the command
radius-server host in Global Configuration Mode. The no form of the command deletes the RADIUS
server configuration.

TACACS-SERVER
CHAPTER 6 TACACS
TACACS
6. TACACS
TACACS
(Terminal Access Controller Access Control System), widely used in network environments, is a
client/server protocol that enables remote access servers to communicate with a central server to
authenticate dial-in users and authorize their access to the requested system or service. It is commonly
used for providing NAS (Network Access Security). NAS ensures secure access from remotely connected
users. TACACS implements the TACACS Client and provides the AAA (Authentication, Authorization and
Accounting) functionalities.
TACACS is used for several reasons:
• Facilitates centralized user administration
• Uses TCP for transport to ensure reliable delivery
• Supports inbound authentication, outbound authentication and change password request for the
Authentication service
• Provides some level of protection against an active attacker

SSH
CHAPTER 7 SSH
SSH
7. SSH
SSH
(Secure Shell) is a protocol for secure remote login and other secure network services over an insecure
network. It consists of three major components:
• The Transport Layer Protocol provides server authentication, confidentiality and integrity.
• The User Authentication Protocol authenticates the client-side user to the server. It runs over the
transport layer protocol.
• The Connection Protocol multiplexes the encrypted tunnel into several logical channels. It runs
over the user authentication protocol.
A Secure Shell (SSH) configuration enables a SSH server and client to authorize the negotiation of only
those algorithms that are configured from the allowed list. The client sends a service request once a
secure transport layer connection has been established. A second service request is sent after user
authentication is complete. This allows new protocols to be defined and coexist with these protocols.
7.1. ssh
To enable or disable SSH subsystem or perform SSH server-related configuration, use the command ssh

SHOW SSL SERVER-CERT
CHAPTER 8 SSL
SSL
8. SSL
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) has been developed for transmitting private documents through Internet. It
works by using a private key for encrypting data that is transferred over the SSL connection. By conven-
tion, URLs that require an SSL connection start with https:
The SSL protocol is designed to provide privacy between two communicating applications (a client and a
server) and authenticate the server, and optionally the client. SSL requires a reliable transport protocol
(e.g., TCP) for data transmission and reception.
The advantage of the SSL protocol is that it is application protocol independent. A higher level application
protocol (e.g., HTTP, FTP, TELNET, etc.) can layer on top of the SSL protocol transparently.
The SSL Protocol can negotiate an encryption algorithm and session key as well as authenticate a server
before the application protocol transmits or receives its first byte of data. All of the application protocol
data is transmitted encrypted, thus ensuring privacy.
8.1. show ssl server-cert

To display the SSL server certificate information, such as certificate, data, version, serial number, signa-
ture algorithm, etc, use the command show ssl server-cert in Privileged EXEC Mode. This command will

SNTP
CHAPTER 9 SNTP
SNTP
9. SNTP
The SNTP
(Simple Network Time Protocol) is a simplified version or subnet of the NTP protocol. It is used to
synchronize the time and date by contacting the SNTP Server. The administrator can choose whether to
set the system clock manually or to enable SNTP. If SNTP is enabled, the SNTP implementation discovers
the SNTP server and gets the time from the server. The SNTP implementation also has callouts to set the
system time based on the time received from the SNTP server. It supports different time zones, where
the user can set the required time zone.
9.1. sntp
To enter SNTP configuration mode which allows the user to execute all commands that support SNTP
Configuration Mode, use the command sntp in Global Configuration Mode.
sntp
Mode
Examples
iS5Comm (config)# sntp

To configure in broadcast mode: SNTP delay time, SNTP broadcast mode status, and SNTP client poll
interval; SNTP client module; in Manycast mode: SNTP client poll interval, Maximum retry poll count
value, SNTP client poll timeout, and Server address; in Multicast mode: SNTP delay time, SNTP multicast

maximum retry poll count, SNTP client maximum poll interval timeout, Unicast-poll-interval, and Unicast
server related configuration, use the command set sntp in SNTP Configuration Mode. The no form of this
command disables authentication and the Daylight Saving Time, resets the system time zone to GM, and
deletes the listening port for SNTP client and resets to the default value; for unicast server, it deletes the
SNTP unicast server attributes and sets them to default values.

CHAPTER 9 SNTP
Parameters
broadcast-mode Enter to specify broadcast-mode.

send-request Enter to specify that request packet is sent out to broadcast server
enabled Enter to send the SNTP request packet to broadcast server to
calculate the actual delay.
disabled Enter to not send any SNTP request packet to broadcast server;
instead the default value for the delay is taken. Disabled is default.
broadcast-delay Enter to configure SNTP delay time or the time interval the SNTP
-time client needs to wait for a response from the server
<value Integer Enter a value for delay time. This value ranges 1000 to 15000
(1000-15000) microseconds.
microseconds>
broadcast-poll- Enter to configure SNTP client poll interval or the maximum
timeout interval to wait for a poll to be completed.
<value (1-30) Integer Enter a value for the maximum interval to wait for a poll to
seconds> complete. This value ranges from 1 to 30 seconds. Default is 5.
client Enter to set the addressing mode of SNTP client.
addressing-mode Enter to configure the addressing mode of the SNTP client. The
options are as follows. The default is Unicast.
unicast Enter to configure the addressing mode of SNTP client as Unicast. A
unicast client operates in a point-to-point fashion. It sends a
request to a designated server at its unicast address and expects a
reply from which it can determine the time and, optionally, the
round-trip delay and local clock offset relative to the server.
broadcast Enter to configure the addressing mode of SNTP client as
Broadcast. Broadcast operates in a point-to-multipoint fashion. The
SNTP server uses an IP local broadcast address instead of a
multicast address. The broadcast address is scoped to a single
subnet, while a multicast address has Internet wide scope.
multicast Enter to configure the addressing mode of SNTP client as Multicast.
Multicast operates in point-to-multipoint fashion. The SNTP server
uses a multicast group address to send unsolicited SNTP messages
to clients. The client listens on this address and sends no requests
for updates.
237
SET SNTP
CHAPTER 9 SNTP
manycast Enter to configure addressing mode of SNTP client as Manycast.

Manycast operates in a multipoint-to-point fashion. The SNTP
client sends a request to a designated IPv4 or IPv6 local broadcast
address or multicast group address. One or more manycast servers
reply with their individual unicast addresses.
authentication- Enter to configure the authentication parameters for the key. Some
key SNTP severs requires authentication to be done before exchanging
any data. This authentication key is used to authenticate the client
to the SNTP server to which it tries to connect. By default,
Authentication key ID is not set.
<key-id> Integer Enter a value for key identifier for providing authentication for the
server and identifying the cryptographic key used to generate the
message-authentication code. This value ranges from 1 to 65535.
md5 Enter to configure the authentication type as md5 (Message
Digest-5) where data integrity is verified. MD5 is intended to be
used with digital signature applications that require that large files
are compressed by a secure method before being encrypted with a
secret key under a public key cryptosystem.
<key> Enter to configure the authentication code as a key value. This
value is a string.
clock-format Enter to configure the system clock as either am/ pm or hours
format.
ampm Enter to configure the system clock in am/ pm format
hours Enter to configure the system clock in 24 hours format.
clock-summer-ti Enter to enable the DST (Daylight Saving Time). DST is a system of
me setting clocks ahead so that both sunrise and sunset occur at a later
hour. The effect is additional daylight in the evening. The dates of
DST may change from year to year.
<week-day-month Enter to configure the DST time. This value is a string of maximum
,hh:mm (20) size of 20. The input should be in the format listed below;
• week—First, Second, Third, Fourth or Last week of month.
• day—Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,
Friday or Saturday.

PTP
CHAPTER 10 PTP
PTP CLI
10. PTP
The device supports end-to-end and peer-to-peer transparent clocks.
End-to-end ( E2E) transparent clocks forward PTP messages, measure the residence time of PTP event
message at the transparent clock, and add this residence time to the correction field of the PTP
messages. Transparent clock timestamps the event messages on ingress and egress port. The difference
between these timestamps is the residence time within the transparent clock. End-to-end transparent
clocks will not execute port state machine and BMC algorithm to select the state of the port.
End-to-end transparent clocks may be used as a network element, or they may be associated with appli-
cation devices such as sensors or actuators if an ordinary clock is combined with the end-to-end trans-
parent clock.
Peer-to-peer transparent clock differs from the end-to-end transparent clock in the way it corrects and
handles the timing messages. End-to-end transparent clock time stamps all PTP timing messages;
peer-to-peer transparent clock forwards only Sync and Follow-up messages.
Peer-to-peer transparent clock calculates the residence time of PTP messages in peer-to-peer trans-
parent clock, measures the link delay of the ingress port of PTP messages, and adds this correction field
in the PTP messages. Peer-to-peer transparent clock uses Pdelay request-response mechanism to
measure the link delay. It uses rate estimation and control mechanism to avoid the residence time error.
The following sections describe all PTP CLI configuration commands including show and debug ptp.
10.1. ptp

Configuration Mode, use the command ptp in Global Configuration Mode.

CHAPTER 11 SNMPV3
SNMPv3
11. SNMPv3
SNMP
(Simple Network Management Protocol) is the most widely-used network management protocol on
TCP/IP-based networks.
SNMPv3 is designed mainly to overcome the security shortcomings of SNMP v1/v2. USM (User based
Security Model) and VACM (View based Access Control Model) are the main features added as part of
the SNMPv3 specification. USM provides both encryption and authentication of the SNMP PDUs
(protocol data units), while VACM specifies a mechanism for defining access policies for different users
with different MIB trees.
Also, SNMPv3 specifies a generic management framework, which is expandable for adding new Manage-
ment Engines, Security Models, Access Control Models and so on. With SNMPv3, the SNMP communica-
tion is completely safe and secure.SNMPv3 is a multilingual agent supporting all three versions of SNMP
(SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3) while conforming to the latest specifications. It is available as a
portable source code product, which can be easily integrated to any platform (any OS and any Processor).
MIB
integration is made simple with the aid of a tool called Middle Level Code Generator (MIDGEN), which is
available along with SNMP and generates the interface stubs required for every object in the MIB for the
SET, GET and GETNEXT operations.These stubs can be implemented by the respective modules
supporting the MIB.
SNMP is provided as source code available for licensing to OEMs and VARs who wish to incorporate the
multi-lingual SNMP functionality into their products.

11.2. SNMP Traps

This section describes the SNMP traps used on the switch.
Introduction
The switch supports a number of traps that indicate alarm or condition changes on the device. This
section will list out those traps and describe how they are generated.
General SNMP configuration for TRAP Generation
The following is applicable for all traps.

iS5Comm(config)# enable SnmpAgent
iS5Comm(config)# snmp user snmpv3 auth md5 AUTHPASSWD
iS5Comm(config)# snmp community index index3 name testv3 security snmpv3

Temperature Trap
The temperature trap will be generated whenever the temperature of the hardware exceeds the High
threshold limit or falls lesser than the minimum threshold limit. Below is the corresponding MIB ID that
would be mentioned, with the TRAP generated.
• issTrapTemperature - 1.3.6.1.4.1.41094.0.250.2.120.4
• issSwitchMinThresholdTemperature - 1.3.6.1.4.1.41094.0.250.2.121.64

• issSwitchCurrentTemperature - 1.3.6.1.4.1.41094.0.250.2.121.66
Steps to generate the Temperature trap
1) Check the current temperature of the hardware using command “show env all”
2) Set the Max temperature threshold limit as lesser than the current temperature, to generate trap,
using the below command.
set switch temperature max threshold <value>

CHAPTER 12 SYSLOG
Syslog
12. Syslog
System Log (Syslog) is an RFC 3164 compliant protocol. The syslog protocol provides a transport to allow
a machine to send event notification messages across IP networks to event message collectors (aka
syslog servers). A Syslog message is any IP packet sent via Syslog protocol using UDP port 514 (by default).
These messages are generated instantly as and when an event (e.g. Interface UP/DOWN, login/logout,
save and restore config, max temperature threshold) occurs during the device’s operation.
The full format of a Syslog message seen on the wire has three discernable parts. The first part is called
the PRI, the second part is the header, and the third part is the MSG. The total length of the packet must
be 1024 bytes or less. The switch ensures that each syslog message do not exceed 1024 bytes.
In its first PRI part, every syslog message contains a Priority value which represents both the Facility and
Severity. The HEADER consists of VERSION, TIMESTAMP, HOSTNAME (or IPv4 or IPv6 address),
APP-NAME, PROCID, and MSGID. The TIMESTAMP field is the local time and is in the format of "Mmm dd
hh:mm:ss" (without the quote marks) value in “mmm dd hh:mm:ss” format.
The device allows an administrator to direct the log messages to local storage (RAM/Flash) or to remote
Syslog server which runs in any Linux/Windows machine. In case of remote logging, the switch uses
IP-based communication to log message to remote server. Syslog client in the switch can also send the
same message to different collector if configured by the administrator. One of the fundamental tenets
of the syslog protocol and process is its simplicity. The transmission of syslog messages may be started
on a device without a receiver being configured, or even actually physically present. This simplicity has
greatly aided the acceptance and deployment of syslog.
12.1. Severity
Each message Priority has a decimal Severity level indicator between 0 – 7. The lower the value, the
higher the priority. The switch’s Software is provisioned with more than 1500 SYSLOG messages covering
errors, alerts, and major events. Table 1 shows the list of all severity levels along with their numerical
values.

6 Informational info Informational Information to users.
messages
7 Debug debug Debug-level Messages that contain information
messages normally of use only when debugging a
program.
12.2. Priority
Each syslog message includes a priority value in the beginning of the text message. The priority value
ranges between 0 to 191 and it made up of facility and severity values. The priority is enclosed with in
“<>” delimiters. The formula for calculating the priority value is:
Priority Value = Facility Level Numerical Value + Severity Value
For example, for a local4 message (Facility level value 160) with a Severity of Notice (Severity=5), the
Priority would have a Priority value of 165.
12.3. Facility
Facility code is used to specify the type of program logging the message. Messages with different facili-
ties can be handled differently. This term comes into picture when we start using remote logging mech-
anism. There are total of 8 facility levels ranging between local0 and local7. Each facility level has a value
assigned to it—local0 (128), local1 (136), local2 (144), local3(152), local4(160), local5(168), local6(176),
322
EXAMPLE OF VALID SYSLOG MESSAGE
CHAPTER 12 SYSLOG
and local7 (184). The switch is configured with default facility level (local0) and all messages are sent with
this facility level unless configured to use different facility level. The idea of the facility level configuration
is to differentiate and filter logs.
12.4. Example of Valid Syslog Message
<165>1 2003-08-24T05:14:15.000003-07:00 192.0.2.1 su 8710 ID47 BOM 'su

root' failed for lonvick on /dev/pts/8
• <165> stands for Priority value indicating a locally defined facility (local4) with a severity of Notice
5 (11.1.3).
• The HEADER part has VERSION 1, a TIMESTAMP field in the message "24 August 2003 at
5:14:15am,with a -7 hour offset from UTC, 3 microseconds into the next second" ,
iPv4—"192.0.2.1”; APP-NAME is “su”, the PROCID is “8710” (for example, this could be the UNIX
PID), and the MSGID is "ID47".
• The MSG is “ ‘su root' failed for lonvick", encoded in UTF-8. The encoding is defined by the BOM
This example of valid syslog messages is based on section 6.5 Examples of RFC 5425.
12.5. Factory Default Syslog Configuration Values
Shown below is the list of factory default values configured after a clean start.
• Local logging in RAM is enabled by default
• Default number of syslog messages stored in RAM is 200
• Default severity level is Critical
• Default facility level is local0.
• Default flash file size is 1MB in case that flash logging is configured.
12.6. Logging Mechanisms Types and Default Configuration

There are two types of local logging mechanisms. Mechanism 1 is stored in RAM and 2 is stored in Flash
memory.
12.7. Local Logging Mechanism 1
323
CLI COMMANDS FOR LOCAL LOGGING METHOD 1
CHAPTER 12 SYSLOG
In this mechanism, the Syslog messages are stored in RAM. Syslog client in the switch can store 200
messages (default) at a time which can be configured to maximum of 4096 messages. Once the maximum
level is reached, it rolls on i.e. the latest messages will be displayed and the oldest messages will be
erased.
There is a rule in local logging mechanism as per which all levels below the configured reference severity
level are automatically logged. For example, if critical is the default level with priority value of 2, the
levels below are alert with a value of 1 and emergency (level 0). Both below levels are automatically
logged. Therefore, there will be no need for configuration needed if the administrator needs to log only
critical and levels below messages. If we had configured the logging severity as debugging whose value
is 7 (the maximum), in that case, all severity levels (7-0) would have been logged automatically
12.8. CLI Commands for Local Logging Method 1
Table 2: CLI Commands for Local Logging Method 1
Command Syntax Description
logging local buffered 4096 Configures maximum storage capability to 4096.

Default value is 200.
logging severity debugging Sets the reference severity level to debugging.
Default value is “Critical”.
syslog localstorage Enables the syslog local storage capability. This
command is enabledwith the help of init script
during boot up of the switch.
no logging severity This will revert back the reference severity level
back to default, which is Critical severity level.
no logging buffered This will reset the buffer level back to default
value 200.
no syslog localstorage
show logging Displays the syslog messages stored in RAM.
clear logs Deletes all the captured syslog messages in RAM
From the above shown CLI commands, the logging severity level is configured as debugging, and hence
the priority value below 7 (emergency/alert/critical/error/warning/notice/info/debug) is automatically
logged in RAM.
The “show logging” command lists all captured syslog messages in RAM. It displays the latest collected
logs and deletes the oldest messages. The buffer size is set to max 4096 and the facility level configured
is local0 (see below).

----------------------
Syslog logging : enabled(Number of messages 127)
Console logging : disabled(Number of messages 0)
TimeStamp option : enabled
Severity logging : Critical
Facility : local1
Buffered size : 4096 Entries
12.9. Local Logging Mechanism 2
This second local logging method is storing syslog messages in flash memory. We can set a file name of
user choice in a flash and redirect all syslog messages to the created file. First, we create a file name and
next associate the messages (based on severity) to the log file.
Each created file can accommodate 10MB of data. Once the 10 MB data quota is reached, the log
messages will be moved to the same file name with a .bk extension and a new file will be created (with
the same name) in which the live logging will continue. This process is a repeating cycle, as each time 10
MB of data is reached, the old logs are moved to a .bk file and the live logging takes place in a new file.
So, the flash consumption is restricted to max of 20MB (10 MB for. bk file which has the old log messages
and 10 MB where the current live logging takes place).
12.10. CLI Commands for Creating Multiple Syslog Files

A maximum of 3 files can be created. The CLI commands for configuring the files are shown in the table
below.
Table 3: Syslog CLI Configurations for Local Logging
syslog filename-one my_syslog A flash file with a name my_syslog is created.

syslog filename-two two A flash file with a name two is created.
syslog filename-three three A flash file with a name three is created.
12.11. Logging to Flash Files CLI Commands
The original command provided was as shown in Table 6. In the original command, the user had to
provide the priority value between 0-191. It is a bit tedious process to choose the value as the user had
325
FLASH SPACE RESTRICTION MECHANISMS
CHAPTER 12 SYSLOG
to do some calculation of the priority based on the numerical values of facility and severity level of the
syslog message that needs to be logged on.
Therefore, the command had been simplified as shown in Table 5. The user does not need to provide the
hard coded value but rather just specify the severity of the message that needs to be logged into the file.
Table 4: Old Logging-file CLI Command
logging-file <short (0-191)> <string (32)> 0-191 is the priority value that user should
provide and the string is the file name.

no logging local flash debugging file one Unconfigures the local flash logging for
debugging severity for flash file “one”
no logging local flash critical file two Unconfigures the local flash logging for
criticalseverity for file named “two”.
no logging local flash alert file three Unconfigures the local flash logging for
alertseverity for file name “three”.
12.12. Flash Space Restriction Mechanisms
All Syslog and other log files (fsir.log.xxx & audit log) are created and stored under /mnt/log flash folder.
The capacity of the log folder is 118 MB. To prevent the flash log folder getting fully occupied, a restric-
tion mechanism had been devised.
12.13. Warning Messages
326
ERROR MESSAGES
CHAPTER 12 SYSLOG
When the usage of this folder reaches the threshold, in the console prompt, a warning message such as
the one shown below is generated for the user. The warning will appear every time when there is an
attempt for a syslog message to be logged in a flash file and until space in the flash file is freed.
Warning: Syslog flash storage crossed its threshold limit. Do you want to
erase logs (Y/N) [N]?
If an user presses Yes, all log files in the flash log directory will be deleted.
If an user selects No or just presses Enter (i.e. the default option which is No is activated), the console
prompt is returned to normal operation. The administrator can later transfer the log messages from the
flash directory to an external Windows / Linux machine and erase the logs to save space. The CLI config-
uration commands to do the same are outlined in Table 6.
Table 6: Copy and Erase Flash Log CLI Commands
copy flash log threetftp://192.168.10.66/three Copies flash file “three” to remote machine
copy flash log threetftp://192.168.10.66/syslog The source file and the destination file don’t
need to be same.
erase flash log three This CLI command deletes the specific log file in
flash named “three”
12.14. Error Messages
When the flash is occupied to its maximum capacity of 118 MB, a second level of restriction mechanism
is activated, and an error message as captured below is generated. The user will be prevented from
creating new file.
iS5Comm <config># syslog filename-two <string(32)>
ERROR: Flash space exhausted. Please delete log files and then try again
iS5Comm <config>#
12.15. USB option for copying logs to external USB flash drive
There will be a new CLI command added for copying the Syslog file from internal flash to external USB
flash drive. The command is outlines in the table below.
327

iS5Comm <Config># End
As Per The Example Configuration Shown Above, The Above Set Of Configurations Creates Flash File
Named “one”, “two”, And “three” In The Flash Directory /mnt/log/ And The Debugging Severity
Messages Are Directed To File “one”, Alert Severity Messages Are Directed To “two”, And Critical Severity
Messages Are Directed To “three”.
For Instance, If File “one” Has Reached Its Quota 4 Mb, The Log Messages In File “one” Is Backed Up In A
New File Named “one.bk” And The Newly Generated Messages Are Still Logged To File “one” As A New
File. This Cycle Is Repeated Every Time 4 Mb Is Reached.

FIRMWARE UPGRADE – LOGGING OF THE PROGRESS
CHAPTER 12 SYSLOG
12.18. Firmware Upgrade – Logging of the Progress
• When Firmware upgrade process is started, the device should be rebooted to verify the upgrade
was successful.
• To log the firmware upgrade, a log message is added to note that the firmware upgrade is in prog-
ress along with the current SW version.
<130>Dec 4 15:55:48 192.168.10.1 ISS TFTP Firmware upgrade in
progress..!! current sw version: [1.18.01A001]
<130>Dec 4 15:55:48 192.168.10.1 ISS MSR System Reloas Requested
• Additionally, there is always a log to note the current version of the SW in every boot.
<130>Dec 4 15:55:48 192.168.10.1 ISS MSR System Reloas Requested
<130>Dec 4 15:55:48 192.168.10.1 ISS MSR Device Successfully bootes with
sw version [1.18.01A001]
• The combination of the above two logs from a syslog file would help to know if there was a
successful upgrade, or if there was a change in version.
12.19. Remote Logging
The remote logging is transferring the Syslog messages to syslog remote server running in any
Windows/Linux machine. These messages are transferred instantly when an event (e.g. Link up/down,
attaining max temperature threshold) occurs in the switch via a UDP socket. These messages can be
filtered based on the severity & facility level.
For the remote logging to take place, first we need to set the reference severity, and then configure
which severity to be logged to the remote syslog server. The default logging severity is Critical (3). So,
when an event occurs the SYSLOG client application first check if the severity level of the message is less
that or equal to reference severity level, and second, it checks if there is any remote server configured
for that severity. Only if both conditions are satisfied, the log will be transferred to the remote server.
12.20. Remote Logging Syslog CLI Commands
The original CLI command for logging the message to remote server is shown in Table 10. In a similar
manner as the logging-file CLI command, this command also requires a user to specify the priority value
between 0-191. loggingfile CLI command had been replaced with a CLI commands for remote logging
which uses severity levels instead of priority levels. The new CLI commands for remote logging are
displayed in Table 10.
329
REMOTE LOGGING SYSLOG CLI COMMANDS
CHAPTER 12 SYSLOG
Table 9: Remote Logging Old CLI Command
logging-server <short (0-191)> {ipv4<ucast_addr> 0-191 is the priority value that the switch
|ipv6 <ip6_addr>|<dns_host_name>} [ port requiresthe user to configure.
<integer (1- 65535)>]
Table 10: Remote Logging Modified CLI Commands
logging remote {alerts | critical | debugging| Simplified command for setting the remote
emergencies | errors | informational logging severity based on the severity rather than
|notification | warnings} {ipv4 <ucast_addr> priority. At backend we calculate theassociated

We can have maximum of seven different syslog server IP address configurations, and ideally each
severity level (total 0 - 7) can be logged to eight different servers.
330
REMOTE LOGGING SYSLOG FACILITY LEVEL CONFIGURATION
CHAPTER 12 SYSLOG
12.21. Remote Logging Syslog Facility Level Configuration
There are eight facility levels in total which can be configured. The purpose of these commands is to
differentiate and filter syslog messages in the external syslog severs. The default facility is Local0.
Table 11: Remote Logging Syslog Facility Level CLI Commands
logging severity debugging Sets the reference severity level

logging facility local1 Sets the logging facility aslocal1
logging remote critical ipv4 < syslog-serverIP Logs critical level messages
address>
logging remote debugging ipv4 < syslog-serverIP Logs debugging level messages
address>
logging remote emergencies ipv4 < syslogserver Logs emergency level messages
IP address>
12.22. Example 1 for Configuration for Remote Logging
iS5Comm <config># logging severity debugging

iS5Comm <config># logging remote debugging ipv4 192.168.10.67
iS5Comm <config># remote critical ipv4 192.168.10.68
iS5Comm <config># end
The above set of configurations logs debugging severity messages under facility level local1. Facility level
is a onetime configuration. Once it is set, all message generation will follow the same facility level, i.e.
severity cannot be set to different facility level.
12.23. Example 2 for Configuration for Remote Logging
iS5Comm <config># logging severity debugging

iS5Comm <config># logging facility local1
iS5Comm <config># logging remote debugging ipv4 192.168.10.67
iS5Comm <config># end
The above set of configurations logs debugging severity messages under facility level local1. Facility level
is a onetime configuration, and once it is set, all message generation will follow the same facility level,
i.e. severity cannot be set with different facility level.

12.25. logging
To enable the Syslog server and configure Syslog related parameters, use the command logging in Global
Configuration Mode. The no form of the command disables syslog server and resets the configured
parameters. The existing syslog buffers will not be cleared and none of the configured options will be
changed, when the Syslog feature is disabled.
The logging process controls the distribution of logging messages to the various destinations, such as the
logging buffer, logging file, or Syslog server.

CHAPTER 15 STP
STP
15. STP
STP
(Spanning-Tree Protocol) is a link management protocol that provides path redundancy while preventing
undesirable loops in the network that are created by multiple active paths between stations. To establish
path redundancy, STP creates a tree that spans all of the switches in an extended network, forcing redun-
dant paths into a standby or blocked state.
For an Ethernet network to function properly, only one active path should exist between two stations.
Multiple active paths between stations in a bridged network can cause loops in which Ethernet frames
can endlessly circulate. STP logically breaks such loops and prevents looping traffic from clogging the
network. The dynamic control of the topology provides continued network operation in the presence of
redundant or unintended looping paths.
The STP functionality is realized in the network using one of the three following STPs:
• RSTP
• MSTP
• PVRST+
RSTP is a portable implementation of the IEEE 802.1D standard. It provides rapid recovery of connectivity
following the failure of a bridge/bridge port or a LAN. It reduces the time to reconfigure the active
topology of the network when physical topology or topology configuration parameters changes. It
provides increased availability of MAC service when there is a reconfiguration or failure of components
in a bridged LAN. It can interoperate with legacy STP bridges without any change in the configuration.
MSTP is a portable implementation of the IEEE 802.1s standard. It is used to configure spanning tree on
per VLAN basis or multiple VLANs per spanning tree. It allows you to build several MST over VLAN trunks,
and group or associate VLANs to spanning tree instances, so the topology of one instance is independent
of the other instance. It provides multiple forwarding paths for data traffic and enables load balancing.
It improves the overall network fault tolerance, as failure in one instance does not affect the other
instances.
PVRST+ is an enhancement of RSTP, which works in conjunction with VLAN to provide better control over
traffic in the network. It maintains a separate spanning tree for each active VLAN in the network, thus
providing load balancing through multiple instances of spanning tree, fault tolerance and rapid reconfig-
uration support through RSTP. NOTE: For each VLAN, a spanning-tree instance is created. Number of

REDUNDANT RING TECHNOLOGY
CHAPTER 15 STP
spanning-tree instances supported in PVRST depends on the number of instances supported by the hard-
ware. PVRST operates only on supported instances
15.1. Redundant Ring Technology

The network recovery time is very critical in industrial applications. Industrial networking devices often
utilize redundant ring technologies to minimize the downtime. The iMR320 adheres to the implementa-
tion of various network protocol standards (STP, MSTP/RSTP/PVRST, MRP, HSR/PRP) to meet the perfor-
mance criteria of mission critical applications.
STP, MSTP/RSTP/PVRST, and MRP are Ethernet based protocols. HSR is a non-Ethernet layer 2 protocol
and on the iMR320 require a dedicated line module. The following table compares these different proto-
cols.
Table 1: Redundancy Ring Comparison Table
Redundancy Ring Comparison Table
Recovery Technology RSTP MRP HSR
Recovery Time < 200 ms < 200 ms 0

Maximum Nodes 40 50 512
Recovery Time Per 5 ms 4 ms 0
Node
Standard IEEE 802.1D-2004 IEC-62439-2-2016 IEC62439-3
PRP (IEC 62439-3) is another redundancy option, however it is not a ring redundancy protocol. Instead
PRP sends packets over two different networks in parallel.
15.2. HSR Protocol

High-availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR) is similar to Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) but is
designed to work in a ring topology. Instead of two parallel independent networks of any technology
(LAN-A and LAN-B), HSR defines a ring with traffic in opposite directions.
In HSR, to allow the determining and discarding duplicate frames, additional protocol specific informa-
tion is sent with the data frame. In HSR, the frames are identical except for the path field in their 6 octet
HSR header (tag), both directions around a loop. The idea is that one copy of the message will reach the
destination node, even if the loop is broken.
386
MEDIA REDUNDANCY PROTOCOL
CHAPTER 15 STP
Figure 1: HSR Tag
Periodically, so called supervision frames, which allow supervision of the status of the redundant
network, e.g. broken links, are sent.
Network devices which do not have the ability to communicate by HSR, can be connected to an HSR ring
via a RedBox, i.e. redundancy box. The intended recipient of the redundant copies of the HSR frame
passes the first copy of the message up the network stack and discards the second one.
15.3. Media Redundancy Protocol

Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) is a networking protocol designed to implement redundancy and
recovery in a ring topology. MRP is designed to react deterministically on a single failure on a switch in
the MRP ring.
In an MRP ring, according to IEC 62439-2, one of nodes in the network takes on the role of the media
redundancy manager (MRM), and the other nodes are the redundancy clients (MRC). The MRM initiates
and controls the ring topology to react to network faults by sending control frames on one ring port over
the ring and receiving them from the ring over its other ring ports.
MRM and MRC ring ports support three status: disabled, blocked, and forwarding. Disabled ring ports
drop all the received frames. Blocked ring ports drop all the received frames except the MRP control
frames. Forwarding ring ports forward all the received frames.
During normal operation, the ring works in the Ring-Closed state. In this state, as a loop prevention, one
of the MRM ring ports is blocked, while the other is forwarding. Conversely, both ring ports of all MRCs
are forwarding. Loops are avoided because the physical ring topology is reduced to a logical stub
topology.
In case of failure, the network works in the Ring-Open state. For instance, in case of failure of a link
connecting two MRCs, the MRM sets both of its ring ports to the forwarding state; the MRCs adjacent to
the failure have a blocked and a forwarding ring port; the other MRCs have both ring ports forwarding.
So, in the Ring-Open status, the network logical topology is a stub.
15.4. MRP Rings

The customer will be deploying MRP rings in their substations for fast failover and ease of configuration.
387
MRP RING SIZE
CHAPTER 15 STP
Ring-Closed MRP Ring
This picture above shows an MRP ring in a closed condition. The MRM switch is the MRP Media Redun-
dancy Manager and it is the designated switch that controls the ring and prevents the network loop from
forming. “W” are the watchdog packets that transit the network much like RSTP BPDUs. If there is a line
failure, the W frames alert the MRM to put its redundant port to forwarding.
For the blocked port on the MRM, only watchdog frames are allowed to pass, and not data frames.
Ring-Open MRP Ring
The figure below shows the ring in an open state with the MRM engaged.
15.5. MRP Ring Size

A ring of 50 switches is currently supported.
388
MEDIA REDUNDANCY AUTOMANAGER
CHAPTER 15 STP
15.6. Media Redundancy Automanager

To configure a Media Redundancy Automanager (MRA), the node or nodes select an MRM by election
and configured priority value.
The MRA role is not an operational MRP role like MRM or MRC. It is only an administrative temporary
role at a device startup. A node must transition to the MRM role or the MRC role after startup, and the
MRM is selected though the manager voting process.

15.19. shutdown spanning-tree

To shut down spanning tree functionality in the switch, use the command shutdown spanning-tree in
Global Configuration Mode. The switch does not execute any kind of STP to form a loop free topology in
the Ethernet network and operates with the existing topology structure.
shutdown spanning-tree
Mode
Default
Spanning tree MSTP is started and enabled in the switch..
Examples
iS5Comm(config)# tcp max retries 1
15.20. spanning-tree
To enable and define spanning tree operation, use the spanning-tree command in Global Configuration
Mode. Spanning tree operation provides path redundancy while preventing undesirable loops in the
network that are created by multiple active paths between stations. It logically breaks such loops and
prevents looping traffic from clogging the network. The no form of this command disables the spanning
tree operation in the switch and resets the spanning tree related information to its default values. The
spanning tree operation is automatically enabled in the switch, once the spanning tree Mode is
changed.The default spanning tree algorithm is rapid spanning tree. Note that the spanning tree opera-
tion can be enabled in the switch only if the spanning tree functionality has not been shut down in the
switch.

Parameters
compatibility Enter to set the STP compatibility version in the switch for all ports.
stp Enter to configure Spanning Tree Protocol configuration.
rst Enter to configure Rapid Spanning Tree configuration.
mst Enter to configure Multiple Spanning Tree configuration.
flush-indicati Enter to configure the flush indication threshold value for a specific
on-threshold instance. When flush indication threshold is default value and flush
interval is non-default value, instance based flushing occurs during
the first flush indication trigger. When the flush indication
threshold value is non-default (x) and flush-interval value is
non-default, port & instance based flushing is triggered until the
threshold (x) is reached. Once the threshold is reached, instance
based flushing is triggered & timer starts.
<value Integer Enter a value to indicate the number of flush indications to go
(0-65535> before the flush-interval timer method triggers and ranges from 0
(default) to 65535.
flush-interval Enter to configure the flush interval timer value (in centi-seconds).
<centi-seconds Integer Enter a value to indicate the number of flush indications invoked
(0-500)> from spanning-tree module per instance basis. This value ranges
from 0 to 500 hundredths of a second. If the flush interval timer is
set to zero, port and instance based flushing occurs (default
functionality). If it is set to non-zero, instance based flushing occurs
(dependent on the flush-indication-threshold value).
forward-time Enter to configure the number of seconds for which a port waits
before changing from the blocking state to the forwarding state.
The values configured for the spanning tree timers should satisfy
the following conditions:
2 * (forward-time - 1) >= max-age, and
max-age >= 2 * (hello-time +1)
The STP timers can be configured in the switch, only if the spanning
tree functionality has not been shut down in the switch. The type
of spanning tree mode should be set, if the functionality is already
shutdown.
This spanning tree timer’s configuration is not supported in PVRST
mode.
424

mode Enter to set the type of spanning tree to be executed, enable
spanning tree operation and start spanning tree functionality in the
switch.
mst Enter to configure the switch to execute MSTP for preventing
undesirable loops. MSTP configures spanning tree on per VLAN
basis or multiple VLANs per spanning tree. The mode cannot be set
as mst, if the base bridge Mode is configured as transparent
bridging.
425
SPANNING-TREE
CHAPTER 15 STP
pvrst Enter to configure the switch to execute PVRST+ for preventing

undesirable loops. PVRST+ is an enhancement of RSTP which works
in combination with VLAN to provide better control over traffic in
the network. The Mode cannot be set as pvrst, if the base bridge
Mode is configured as transparent bridging. The pvrst can be set as
the spanning tree Mode, only if the GVRP feature is disabled.
pvst Enter to configure the switch to execute PVST for preventing
undesirable loops. PVST maintains separate spanning tree instance
for each VLAN in the network and forwards VLAN trunk for only
some VLANs. The Mode cannot be set as pvst, if the base bridge
Mode is configured as transparent bridging. This feature is
currently not supported.
rapid-pvst Enter to configure the switch to execute rapid PVST for preventing
undesirable loops. Rapid PVST combines the functionalities of RSTP
and PVST, and creates a tree for each VLAN. The Mode cannot be
set as rapid-pvst, if the base bridge Mode is configured as
transparent bridging. This feature is currently not supported.
rst Enter to configure the switch to execute RSTP for preventing
undesirable loops. RSTP provides rapid recovery of connectivity
following the failure of a bridge/bridge port or a LAN.
mst Enter to start MST configuration
instance ID Enter to configure the ID of MSTP instance already created in the
switch. This option is applicable, only if the spanning tree mode is
set as MST.

addition or deletion of ports in port channel. Note that the
manually assigned path cost is used even if the lag speed feature is
enabled in the switch when the path cost is assigned manually.
portfast Enter to specify the portfast feature in the port. This feature
specifies that the port is connected to only one hosts and hence
can rapidly transit to forwarding. This feature can cause temporary
bridging loops, if hubs, concentrators, switches, bridges and so on
are connected to this port. This feature takes effect only after the
interface is shutdown and turned on again.

d> value ranges from 1 to 4094. VFI ID is a VLAN created in the system
which contains Pseudo wires and Attachment Circuits as member
ports. This creates a logical LAN for the VPLS service. This value
ranges from 4096 to 65535.The VLAN ID 4095 is reserved and may
be used to indicate a wildcard match for the VID in management
operations or Filtering Database entries.
VFI IDs 4096 and 4097 are reserved identifiers used in MPLS PW.
The theoretical maximum for the maximum number of VFI is 65535
but the actual number of VFI supported is a sizing constant. Based
on this, the maximum number of VFI ID accepted in the
management interface is restricted. For example, if 100 VFIs are
supported, the maximum number of VFI supported will be
restricted to maximum number of VLANs + 100. An error message
is displayed for any value beyond this range.

CHAPTER 16 MRP
MRP
16. MRP
This section describes the CLI commands used to configure the MRP feature.
Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) is a networking protocol designed to implement redundancy and
recovery in a ring topology. MRP is designed to react deterministically on a single failure on a switch in
the MRP ring. An MRP instance is configured between two ports known as ring ports and can act as
manager or client in the ring. The MRP node which is configured as manager has the responsibility of
avoiding the loop in the ring by making one ring port as blocking and other as forwarding. The conver-
gence time of MRP is very fast as compared to spanning tree protocols. On a port either MRP can be
enabled or spanning tree may be selected.
To configure MRP, first it needs to be enabled at the global level, the instance needs to be created with
required mode and then instance needs to be mapped to the ring ports, this chapter describes the
commands used.
Note: To enable an MRP ring instance on a port; first spanning tree needs to be disabled. Both protocols
cannot run together on the same port.
16.1. Redundancy
Redundancy within the network considers the presence of more network elements (switches, link) than
necessary operation, in order to prevent the loss of communication caused by a failure. To effect this,
there is more than one physical path between any two nodes. IEC 61918 specified ring topology, every
switch has a redundant connection (link) into the network. the redundant links are not required for a
failure-free/normal operation of the network. In case of a failure, these redundant links are used to
prevent the breakdown of the network. The disadvantage of ring topology is that, it can introduce a
“packet loop” that creates broadcast storms in the network.
Spanning Tree protocols, such as RSTP, specify a method for providing media redundancy while
preventing the undesirable packet loop in a network (i.e.) RSTP were developed to detect and eliminates
the physical loop in the network. Also, in case of a failure in the network, a topology change notification
is sent out to create a different safe path.
Although STP is effective enough for many networks, it takes longer time for re-convergence in case of
failure. This is not good enough for mission-critical industrial Ethernet applications. To overcome the
limitations of RSTP, MRP protocol was developed. MRP uses mechanisms similar to RSTP (e.g., delete
forwarding database after reconfiguration, set ports into blocking or forwarding mode), but it takes
lesser time for re-convergence in case of failure. Below is the comparison of MRP with RSTP.

16.2. MRP
An MRP-compliant network shall have a ring topology with multiple nodes. According to IEC 62439-2,
One of nodes in the network takes on the role of the redundancy manager (MRM
), the other nodes are the redundancy clients (MRC
). The ports at a node which are connected with the subsequent or preceding node are named ring ports.
16.3. MRP Function

It is the Redundancy Manager’s responsibility to monitor the ring topology. During normal ring operation
(i.e., no link or node failure in the ring topology) the Redundancy Manager disconnects one of its ring
ports, so that the ring topology becomes ‘loop free’ from a communication point of view. As soon as the
ring is open due to the failure of a node, and the data communication is broken, the Redundancy
Manager reconfigures the data paths within 200ms. It enables the disconnected ring port and creates a
new loop free topology.
Figure 1: MRP Normal Operation Vs Error Scenario
440
NORMAL OPERATION: RING CLOSED
CHAPTER 16 MRP
16.4. Normal Operation: Ring Closed

To detect errors in the network, the redundancy manager sends MRP_Test frames on both of its ring
ports. These frames run through the ring in both directions until they arrive at the other ring port of the
manager. These MRP_Test frames are marked with a special MAC address and forwarded by the MRCs
only to the opposite ring ports. They are sent periodically every MRP_Test default interval (20 ms by
default). If the MRP_Test frames arrive on both ends back to the MRM, the ring is detected as defect
free(ring closed) and the MRM blocks the loop. This is done by changing the state to BLOCKED at one of
the ring ports in the MRM and the other as FORWARDING as shown in Figure 2 below. On this BLOCKED
port only test frames to supervise the ring (MRP_Test frames) are sent. Data frames are sent by the MRM
only on the port in the FORWARDING state.
Figure 2: MRP Normal Operation
441
FAILURE DETECTION: RING OPEN
CHAPTER 16 MRP
16.5. Failure Detection: Ring Open

If MRP_Test frames, typically 3 frames in sequence of are not received by the MRM, the ring topology is
considered as interrupted. So it takes 60 ms to detect a failure in the ring. To change the topology in the
whole ring, all MRCs and the MRM have to clear their FDBs at the same time as the redundant port is
changing state from BLOCKED to FORWARDING to keep the network consistent. The MRM sends 3
MRP_TopologyChange messages in 10ms delay into the ring with the indication that the topology has
changed. The blocked port on the MRM changes the state from BLOCKING to FORWARDING. Every MRC
receiving MRP_TopologyChange indications is supposed to clear its Filtering Data Base (FDB) at the
MRP_TOPchgT time. Afterwards it has to build up again the FDB based on the new topology.
The time between detecting a ring interruption and restoring a new data structure is referred to as the
recovery time. The recovery time has a maximum value of 200ms. As soon as the fault is recovered in the
network, the redundancy manager disconnects its ring port again and informs the clients of the change.

CONFIGURATION COMMANDS
CHAPTER 17 HSR-PRP
HSR
17. HSR-PRP
The main purpose of the HSR and PRP protocols is to provide zero fail-over time network redundancy (in
comparision MRP has a fail-over time of a few 100 ms and STP/RSTP a few seconds).
A switch with an HSR-PRP line card supports the IEC 62439-3 standard (Industrial communication
networks – High availability automation networks – Part 3: Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) and
High-availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR)). Up to four HSR-PRP line cards can be inserted into the
switch’s chassis providing up to eight HSR/PRP redundant interfaces.
The following document provides some information how to setup and monitor the redundant interfaces
and networks from the CLI (Command Line Interface).
The commands used for setting up redundant interfaces are shown in the Configuration Commands
section, while the section Informational Commands shows how to monitor the redundant interfaces. The
section Clear Commands is to be used to clear counters to set a new starting point for collection infor-
mation.
17.1. Configuration Commands

The HSR-PRP line card redundant interfaces can be configured from the Interface Configuration mode
with the following commands from the Global Configuration Mode.
interface redundant
To configure a HSR-PRP line card redundant interface, use the command interface redundant in Global
Configuration Mode. Use this command to proceed to a specific redundant Interface Configuration
Mode.

iS5Comm (config)# interface redundant 5 name Yellow-Ring
NOTE: Enter this command to proceed to a specific redundant interface configuration mode and supply
an option name to the interface.
interface range redundant

To configure multiple redundant interface, use the command interface range redundant in Global
Configuration Mode. Use this command to proceed to multiple redundant interfaces so that they can all
be configured at the same time.
interface range redundant

interface range redundant <red-id (1-8)> - <red-id (1-8)>
453
CHAPTER 17 HSR-PRP
Parameters

<red-id Enter to configure the range of the multiple redundant interface.

Mode
Examples
iS5Comm(config)# interface redundant 5 - 6
iS5Comm(config-if-red-range)#
Activation/Deactivation
From the Interface Configuration mode, the redundant interface can be activated or deactivated with the
following commands.
no shutdown
To activate a specific redundant interface, use the command no shutdown in Redundant Interface
Configuration Mode. The interface needs to be in redundancy enable mode for this command to work.
no shutdown

HSR/PRP Mode
The redundant interface HSR/PRP mode can be set when the interface is in the deactivated state with
the following command.
mode
To set a redundant interface HSR/PRP mode (with optional NetId for HSR-PRP coupling and HSR-HSR
QuadBox) when the interface is in the deactivated state, use the command mode in Redundant Interface
Configuration Mode.

456
CHAPTER 17 HSR-PRP
Parameters

hsr Enter for HSR mode.
prp Enter for PRP mode. This is the default mode.
hsr-prp-a Enter for HSR- PRP coupling mode for LAN A.
hsr-prp-b Enter for HSR-PRP coupling mode for LAN B.
hsr-hsr Enter to set a redundant interface in HSR-HSR QuadBox mode. This
option is the same as hsr-hsr-a with netid of 1 to be backwards
compatible with older configuration setups.
hsr-hsr-a Enter to set a redundant interface in HSR-HSR-A QuadBox mode. A
QuadBox is only formed when both redundant interfaces on the line
card are in this mode and then both activated.
hsr-hsr-b Enter to set multiple redundant interfaces to the HSR-HSR-B QuadBox
mode. A QuadBox is only formed when both redundant interfaces on
the line card are in this mode and then both activated.
netid Optionally, enter the NetId for the HSR-PRP or HSR-HSR modes (if not
<integer specified, it will default to 1). The NetId can be set in the range from 1
(1-7> to 7 as they are used as follows:
• 0 for regular HSR frames originating on the HSR ring (HSR nodes)
• 1 to 6 for redundant frames originating from outside the HSR ring
(HSR-PRP or HSR-HSR)
• 7 is reserved (but can also be used if needed for outside redun-
dant frames)
The same NetID should be used on the HSR-PRP-A and HSR-PRP-B
RedBoxes so that they can work together to connect the HSR ring to a
single PRP network. The NetId will be inserted into frames that are
converted from the PRP network to the HSR ring, which then provides
a filtering mechanism for the other HSR-PRP RedBox not to
reintroduce the frame back into the other LAN of the PRP network.
Similarly, HSR-HSR-A and HSR-HSR-B QuadBoxes should use the same
NetId to work together on the same HSR ring. The NetId can be set to
different values on each side of the QuadBox as they are different HSR
rings.

NOTE: The example above sets a redundant interface to HSR-HSR-B QuadBox mode with NetId 3. If NetId
is not specified it will default to 1. The NetId can be set to different values on each side of the QuadBox.
458
CHAPTER 17 HSR-PRP
A QuadBox is only formed when both redundant interfaces on the line card are in this mode and then
both activated.
Redundancy Enable/Disable Mode

The redundancy enable / disable mode of the redundant interface is enabled by default but it can be
disabled to allow the Port-A and Port-B spigots to be directly connected to ports on the main switch. This
allows the spigots to be repurposed when only one redundant interface is needed on a line card.

HSR-RSTP Fast Recovery

HSR-RSTP fast recovery is an optional feature when a redundant interface is in HSR mode with HSR oper-
ational mode Mode-R.
The HSR-RSRP fast recovery feature has been implemented to handle the 6 seconds convergence delay
on ALT/DISCARDING ports
The following command can be used to set up the HSR-RSTP fast recovery from the CLI.
hsr-rstp-fast-recovery
To set up the HSR-RSTP fast recovery, use the command hsr-rstp-fast-recovery in Redundant Interface
Configuration Mode.
hsr-rstp-fast-recovery
hsr-rstp-fast-recovery enable | disable
Parameters

enable Enter to enable the HSR-RSTP fast recovery feature.
disable Enter to disable the HSR-RSTP fast recovery feature.
Mode
Examples
iS5Comm(config-if-red5)# hsr-rstp-fast-recovery enable
HSR NetId
The HSR NetId is used to connect two RedBoxes to work together (used in HSR-PRP coupling mode,
HSR-HSR QuadBox mode and HSR operational Mode R). The NetId is an optional parameter in the mode
and hsr-operational-mode commands and if not specified will default to 1. This can subsequently be
changed with the hsr-netid command.
465
CHAPTER 17 HSR-PRP
The following command can be used to set the HSR NetId.
hsr-netid
To set the NetId, use the command hsr-netid in Redundant Interface Configuration Mode.
hsr-netid
hsr-netid <integer (1-7)>
Parameters
<integer Enter a value for HSR Netid.

(1-7)>
Mode
Examples
iS5Comm(config-if-red6)# hsr-netid 5
NOTE: The example above sets the HSR NetId to 5.
PRP Trailer Passing

By default, the PRP trailer is removed from frames as they move from the redundant network through
the redundant switch to the normal network. As PRP networks can carry both ordinary and PRP Ethernet
traffic, it may be useful for analysing frames from the redundant network if the PRP trailer is left on. Most
Ethernet equipment will ignore the six extra byte trailer so should not cause any issues on the normal
network if this option is used. The following command can be used to set the PRP trailer passing state.
prp-trailer-pass
To set the PRP trailer passing state, use the command prp-trailer-pass in Redundant Interface Configu-
ration mode.
prp-trailer-pass
prp-trailer-pass {enable | disable}
466
CHAPTER 17 HSR-PRP
Parameters

enable Enter to enable PRP trailer passing from redundant network to
ordinary network.
disable Enter to disable PRP trailer passing from redundant network to
ordinary network (default).
Mode
Examples
iS5Comm(config-if-red6)# prp-trailer-pass enable
NOTE: The example above will enable PRP trailer passing from redundant network to ordinary network.

iS5Comm(config-if-red6)# prp-trailer-pass disable
NOTE: The example above will disable PRP trailer passing from redundant network to ordinary network
(default).
QuadBox VLANs
A reserved VLAN ID is used to connect two redundant switches to form a QuadBox on a line card to
isolate the Ethernet traffic from other ports. By default, VLAN ID 4059 to 4062 are the reserved values
used for the four possible QuadBoxes that can be created. However, it is possible that this range conflicts
with the user’s network VLAN assignment, so it is possible to move this block of four VLAN IDs to another
range.
The following command can be used to move the VLAN ID range in the Configuration mode.
redundant quad-box
To move the VLAN ID range in the Configuration mode, use the command redundant quad-box in Global
Configuration Mode.

displayed.
fast-recovery Enter to display the fast-recovery prameters.
node-table Enter to display the node table. Multicast supervision frames
are sent by all redundant nodes and received by all redundant
nodes within the redundant network. These frames can
therefore be used to monitor availability of redundant nodes
within the network. The Node Table is a collection of all
supervision frames received from other nodes including the
count, the sequence numbers and when they were last seen
proxy-node-table Enter to display the nodes that the redundant interface is
representing (the proxy-node table). The redundant switch
generates supervision frames for itself and for these nodes that
are connected and communicating on the redundant network
configuration Enter to display the redundancy configuration. Redundancy
configuration can be verified for one or all redundant interfaces
from the top level EXEC mode with the following command.
mapping Enter to display the correct spigot to connect to. The HSR-PRP
standard requires that port A is always to the left of or above
port B. With the line card flipped between odd and even slots
port remapped is used to ensure that this is the case. The
HSR-PRP line card also supports both RJ45 and SFP spigots as
well as with redundancy disabled different main switch ports
are brought to the spigots.
quad-box Enter to display the quad-box configuration. QuadBox
configuration configuration can be obtained through the standard HSR/PRP
configuration command as well.
quad-box Enter to display the QuadBox Node Table. The QuadBox Node
node-table Table combines the supervision frames received on both
redundant switches to provide a better picture of the connected
redundant HSR networks.
link-stats Enter to display how stable the connections to the redundant
network have been. Counters for a particular redundant
interface are cleared on configuration changes, or by clearing all
counters.

CHAPTER 18 LA
LA
18. LA
LA (Link Aggregation)
is a method of combining physical network links into a single logical link for increased bandwidth. LA
increases the capacity and availability of the communications channel between devices (both switches
and end stations) using existing Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet technology. LA also provides load
balancing where the processing and communication activity is distributed across several links in a trunk,
so that no single link is overwhelmed. By taking multiple LAN connections and treating them as a unified,
aggregated link, practical benefits in many applications can be achieved.
LA provides the following important benefits:
• Higher link availability
• Increased link capacity
Improvements are obtained using existing hardware (no upgrading to higher-capacity link technology is
necessary)
The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), described by IEEE 802.3ad, defines a method for two
switches to automatically establish and maintain link aggregation groups ( LAG)s, or also called port chan-
nels or channel-groups. Port channels combine the bandwidth of multiple Ethernet ports into a single
logical link, and management functions treat an LAG as if it were a single physical port.
When LACP is not enabled, a port channel might attempt to transmit packets to a remote single interface,
which causes the communication to fail.
When LACP is enabled, a local LAG cannot transmit packets unless an LAG with LACP is also configured
on the remote end of the link.
A channel group is a collection of Ethernet interfaces on a single switch. A port channel interface is a
virtual interface that serves a corresponding channel group and connects to a compatible interface on
another switch to form a port channel. Port channel interfaces can be configured and used in a manner
similar to Ethernet interfaces. Port channel interfaces are configurable as Layer 2 interfaces, Layer 3
(routable) interfaces, and VLAN members.
The switch supports up to 8 link aggregation groups, with a maximum of up to 8 ports per group.
478
CHANNEL-GROUP
CHAPTER 18 LA
18.1. channel-group
To add a port as a member of the specified port channel that is already created in the switch, use the
command channel-group in Interface Configuration Mode. The no form of the command deletes the
aggregation of the port from all port channels.

CHAPTER 19 LLDP
LLDP
19. LLDP
LLDP
(Link Layer Discovery Protocol) supports a set of attributes that are used for discovering the neighbor
devices. These attributes contain type, length, and value descriptions and are referred to as Time to Live
( TLV)s. LLDP supported devices can use TLVs to receive and send information to their neighbors.
TLV (Time to Live) is value that defines for the receiving agent how long the information contained in the
TLV Value field is valid.
TTL = message transmission interval * hold time multiplier.
For example, if the value of LLDP transmission interval is 30, and the value of the LLDP hold multiplier is
4, then the value 120 is encoded in the TTL field in the LLDP header.
Fast transmission periods are initiated when a new neighbor is detected, and cause LLDP packets to be
transmitted at a shorter time interval than during normal operation of the protocol. The fast transmis-
sion period ensures that more than one LLDP packet is transmitted when a new neighbor is detected. The
first transmission is immediate, and the subsequent transmissions occur at the specified fast transmis-
sion (TX) interval.
The switch supports the following mandatory basic management TLVs.
• Port description TLV
• System name TLV
• System description
• System capabilities TLV
• Management address TLV
• Port VLAN ID TLV (IEEE 802.1 organizationally specific TLVs)
• MAC/PHY configuration/status TLV (IEEE 802.3 organizationally specific TLVs)
LLDP conforms to IEEE 802.1AB-2005 standard. The LLDP allows systems on an Ethernet LAN to advertise
their key capabilities and also to learn about the key capabilities of other systems on the same Ethernet
LAN. This, in turn, promotes a unified network management view of the LAN topology and connectivity
to aid network administration and trouble-shooting.
LLDP provides the following features:
• Provides full conformance to the 802.1AB specification.
513
CLEAR LLDP
CHAPTER 19 LLDP

LLDP
CHAPTER 19 LLDP
Parameters
MessageFastTx Enter to configure the interval at which LLDP frames are

transmitted on behalf of this LLDP agent during fast
transmission period. Fast transmission periods are initiated
when a new neighbor is detected, and cause LLDP packets to
be transmitted at a shorter time interval than during normal
operation of the protocol. The fast transmission period ensures
that more than one LLDP packet is transmitted when a new
neighbor is detected. The first transmission is immediate, and
the subsequent transmissions occur at the specified fast
transmission (TX) interval.
<range (1-3600)> Integer Enter a message fast transmit interval value with a default 1.
chassis-id-subtyp Enter to configure an ID for LLDP chassis subtype which is a
e unique address of any module.
NOTE: Chassis ID value can be set only for the chassis-compo-
nent and local system subtypes. For all other subtypes, it takes
the value from the system automatically.
chassis-comp Enter to configure the chassis identifier based on the value of
entPhysicalAlias object for a chassis component
<string(255)> Integer Enter an ID value based on the value of entPhysicalAlias object.
if-alias Enter to configure the chassis identifier based on the value of
ifAlias for an interface on the chassis.
if-name Enter to configure the chassis identifier based on the value of

CHAPTER 20 PNAC
PNAC
20. PNAC
PNAC
(Port Based Network Access Control) is a portable implementation of the IEEE Std 802.1x PNAC.
The IEEE 802.1X standard defines a client-server-based access control and authentication protocol that
prevents unauthorized clients from connecting to a LAN through publicly accessible ports unless they are
properly authenticated. The authentication server authenticates each client connected to a port before
making available any services offered by the device or the network.
Until the client is authenticated, IEEE 802.1X access control allows only Extensible Authentication
Protocol over LAN (EAPOL) and Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) traffic through the port to which the client
is connected. After authentication is successful, normal traffic can pass through the port.
When the command aaa authentication dot1x default is used to enable the dot1x local authentication
or RADIUS server / TACACS + server (authentication server) based remote authentication method for all
ports, the router initiates authentication
• when the link state changes from down to up, or
• periodically if the port remains up and unauthenticated.
When the device that requests access to LAN and a switch (supplicant) supplies its identity, the router
begins its role as the intermediary, passing EAP frames between the supplicant and the authentication
server until authentication succeeds or fails.
20.1. aaa authentication dot1x default

To configure the dot1x local authentication or RADIUS server / TACACS+ server-based remote authenti-
cation method for all ports, use the command aaa authentication dot1x default in Global Configuration
Mode.

Parameters
group Enter to configure server based authentication.

radius Enter to configure RADIUS as the authentication server. RADIUS offers
Authentication, Authorization and Accounting management for computers
to access a network.
tacacs+ Enter to configure TACACS+ as the authentication server. This feature has
been included to adhere to the Industry Standard CLI syntax.
tacacsplus Enter to configure TACACS+ as the remote authentication server. Tacacs
offers Authentication, Authorization and Accounting management for
computers to access a network. This is mainly used for backward
compatibility.

CHAPTER 20 PNAC
Parameters
distributed Enter to configure periodic sync timer and max alive count for
distributed PNAC (D-PNAC).
periodic-sync-t Enter to configure the D-PNAC sync timer used in distributed
ime -PNAC. The Periodic sync timer is used to configure the
transmission interval of D-PNAC periodic-sync PDUs. In the master
node, this timer expiry is used to identify the slave down and
remove the slave node information.
NOTE: The configured value of this timer is applicable only from the
next start/re-start of the timer.
NOTE: If the configured value is '0', then no periodic-sync messages
will be sent from that D-PNAC node.
<short<0-300)> Integer Enter a value for the periodic sync timer. This runs individually in
each D-PNAC node, and the value ranges from 0 to 300 seconds.
max-keep-alive- Enter to configure keep alive mechanism when distributed-PNAC
count status is enabled. This is maintained by Master Node.
NOTE: The keep alive count of all remote D-PNAC nodes is incre-
mented every time when the periodic-sync timer expires.
NOTE: The value resets to zero for a particular D-PNAC node, only on
receiving periodic-sync/ event-update message from that particular
remote D-PNAC node.
NOTE: If keep alive count of any of the Remote D-PNAC node reaches
the maximum keep alive count, the Remote D-PNAC node is

CHAPTER 20 PNAC
Parameters
access-control Enter to configure the supplicant access control. This setting is

for the application of the Supplicant authorization state when
the port is operating as both Supplicant and Authenticator.
active Enter to configure the port to apply both the Supplicant
authorization state and Authenticator authorization state
inactive Enter to configure the port to use only the Authenticator
authorization state to restrict access to the port and not the
Supplicant authorization state. This is the default option
auth-mode Enter to configure the authentication mode of a port as either
port-based (which is also known as multi-host) or mac-based
(which is also known as single-host). Port based authentication
has different modes of authentication. MAC based
authentication allows secured mac addresses to pass through
the port. Non-secure MAC addresses are dropped.
port-based Enter to configure the port’s authentication mode as
port-based. The port authenticates the host to use the restricted
resource. The port state is changed to authorize. The traffic
flows through the port without any access restriction till any
event that causes the port state to become unauthorized. This is
default option.
mac-based Enter to configure the port’s authentication mode as
MAC-based. Upon receiving tagged/untagged data/control
frames from the CFA Module, it checks if the source MAC is
present in the Authenticator Session Table and if it is authorized.
• If it is present in the table and is authorized, the result is
passed to CFA, which then forwards the frame to the
appropriate destination module.
• If it is present in the table but not authorized, the CFA
Module is intimated and the frame is dropped at the CFA
Module.
• If neither of the above occurs, the Authenticator will
initiate a new authentication session for that source MAC
address and return the unauthorized status to the CFA
Module, which then drops the frame.
548
DOT1X
CHAPTER 20 PNAC
control-direction Enter to configure configures port control direction. The switch

port authenticates incoming packets and outgoing packets. The
direction can be configured manually by selecting either in or
both.
in Enter to configure the port to authenticate only the incoming
packets.
both Enter to configure the port to authenticate both incoming and
outgoing packets. This is the default option.
default Enter to configure dot1x with default values for this port. The
previous configurations on this port are reset to the default
values. These details are not displayed but are the basic settings
for a port.
disable Enter to disable dot1x on the specified port.
enable Enter to enable dot1x on the specified port.
host-mode Enter to configure the port authentication mode of a port as
either multi-host (which is also known as port-based) or
single-host (which is also known as mac-based).
Multi host authentication has different Modes of
authentication. Single host authentication allows secured mac
addresses to pass through the port. Non-secure mac addresses
are dropped. NOTE: This command is a standardized
implementation of the existing command; dot1x auth-mode. It
operates similar to the existing command.
multi-host Enter to configure the port to multi host authentication mode
and perform port-based authentication. With this option, more
than one host can be connected to the port using an Ethernet
hub attached to the port. This is the default option.
single-host Enter to configure the port to single host authentication Mode
and perform MAC-based authentication. With this option, only
one host can be connected to the port.
NOTE: To configure the auth Mode of a port as single-host, port
control of the port must be set as auto.
max-req Enter to set the maximum number of EAP (Extensible
Authentication Protocol) retries to the client by the
authenticator before restarting authentication process.
549
DOT1X
CHAPTER 20 PNAC
<count (1-10)> Integer Enter a value for maximum number of EAP retries to the client
by the authenticator before restarting authentication process.
The count value ranges between 1 and 10. The default is 2.
max-start Enter to set the maximum number of EAPOL retries to the
authenticator.
<count (1-65535)> Integer Enter a value for maximum number of EAP retries to the
authenticator. The count value ranges between 1 and 65535.
The default is 3.
port-control Enter to configure the authenticator port control parameter.
The dot1x exercises port based authentication to increase the
security of the network. The different modes employed to the
ports offer varied access levels. The 802.1x protocol is
supported on both Layer 2 static-access ports and Layer 3
routed ports.
auto Enter to configure the 802.1x authentication process in this
port. Causes the port to begin the unauthorized state, allowing
only EAPOL frames to be sent and received through the port.
The authentication process begins when the link state of the
port transitions from down to up or when an EAPOL-start frame
is received. The switch requests the identity of the client and
begins relaying authentication messages between the client and
the authentication server. The switch can uniquely identify each
client attempting to access the network by the client's MAC
address.
force-authorized Enter to configure the port to allow all traffic through this port.
Disables 802.1x authentication and causes the port to transit to
the authorized state without requiring authentication exchange.
The port transmits and receives normal traffic without
802.1x-based authentication of the client. This is the default
option.
force-unauthorize Enter to configure the port to block all traffic through this port.
d Causes the port to remain in the unauthorized state, ignoring all
attempts by the client to authenticate. The switch cannot
provide authentication services to the client through the
interface.
550
DOT1X
CHAPTER 20 PNAC
reauth-max Enter to configure the maximum number of EAP retries to the

client. This variable can be tuned to make the port as
unauthorized if the supplicant is not available when
re-authentication reaches the maximum retry. Lower the value,
the port is made unauthorized sooner.
<count (1-10)> Integer Enter a value for maximum number of EAP retries to the client.
The count value ranges between 1 and 10. The default is 2.
reauthentication Enter to enable periodic re-authentication from authenticator
to client. The periodic re-authentication is requested to ensure
if the same supplicant is accessing the protected resources. The
amount of time between periodic re-authentication attempts
can be configured manually.
NOTE: This command will execute only if the authenticator port
control parameter is auto.
timeout Enter to set the dot1x timers. The timer module manages
timers, creates memory pool for timers, creates timer list, starts
and stops timer. It provides handlers to respective expired
timers.
NOTE: Only one timer can be configured using this command,
that is, the user can configure either the quiet-period or
tx-period, but not both.
auth-period Enter to configure the number of seconds that the supplicant
waits before timing-out the authenticator. The default is 30
seconds.
held-period Enter to configure the number of seconds that the supplicant
waits before trying to acquire the authenticator.The default is 60
seconds.
quiet-period Enter to configure the quiet-period or the number of seconds
that the switch remains in the quiet state following a failed
authentication exchange with the client. The default is 60
seconds.
reauth-period Enter to configure the reath-period or the number of seconds
between re-authentication attempts. The default is 3600
seconds.
server-timeout Enter to configure the number of seconds that the switch waits
for the retransmission of packets to the authentication server.

VLAN
21. VLAN
VLANs (Virtual LANs) can be viewed as a group of devices on different physical LAN segments that can
communicate with each other as if they were all on the same physical LAN segment. That is, in VLAN, a
network of computers behave as if they are connected to the same wire even though they may actually
be physically located on different segments of a LAN. VLANs are configured through software rather than
hardware, and that make them extremely flexible.
VLAN provides the following benefits for switched LANs:
• Improved administration efficiency
• Optimized broadcast/multicast activity
• Enhanced network security
The prompt for the Config VLAN mode is:
iS5Comm(config-vlan)#
21.1. base
To configure the base mode as 802.1Q VLAN-aware bridge mode in which the VLAN feature should
operate on the switch or set the bridge mode as transparent, use the command base in Global Configu-
ration Mode. This configuration is globally applied on all ports of the switch.

Parameters
mac-vlan Enter to enable MAC-based VLAN membership classification in a port.

VLAN membership classification is done based on the MAC address of
the source of the received packets. By default, MAC based VLAN
classification is disabled on all ports.
NOTE: MAC based VLAN membership classification can be enabled or

based VLAN membership classification.
NOTE: The change in global MAC based VLAN membership classification
overrides the port membership classification. For example, If the classifi-
cation in the port is set as enabled while global classification is disabled,
and if global classification is changed as enabled and once again to
disabled, the classification in the port will be automatically set as
disabled.
NOTE: MAC based VLAN membership classification can be enabled /

21.17. ports
To statically configure a VLAN entry with the required member ports, untagged ports and/or forbidden
ports, and activate the VLAN, use the command ports in VLAN Configuration Mode. The VLAN can also
be activated using the vlan active command.The configuration defines the tagged and untagged member
ports that are used for egress tagging of a VLAN at a port. For ports in PBB bridge mode, this command
is used to define member ports for a VLAN in a component. For backbone virtual local area
networks (B-VLAN) in a B component, only the provider network ports (PNP)
can be set as member ports.For a stacked virtual local area network (S-VLAN)
in an I component, only the CNP-S tagged ports can be set as member ports.
CNP stands for customer network port.For customer virtual local area
network (C-VLAN) in an I component, only the CNP-C tagged ports can be set
as member ports.The no form of the command deletes the specified port details for the VLAN. Static
ARP cache entry related to the static MAC address of this specific port and VLAN should be removed
while removing a port from the VLAN. The member ports cannot be set empty for the VLAN, once the
member ports details are configured for that VLAN.

SET GARP TIMER
CHAPTER 21 VLAN
Parameters
join Enter to configure the time interval (in milli-seconds) till which a GARP
participant should wait for its join message to be acknowledged before
re-sending the join message. The join message is re-transmitted only once,
if the initial message is not acknowledged. This time is started, once the
initial join message is sent. The join message is sent by a GARP participant
to another GARP participant for registering:
• Its attributes with another participant
• Its manually configured attributes
• Attributes received from a third GARP participant
<time in Integer Enter a value for the time interval. This value can be multiple of tens only
milli (that is, as 210, 220, 230 and so on) This value should satisfy the condition:
seconds> GarpJoinTime > 0 and (2*GarpJoinTime) < GarpLeaveTime.
leave Enter to configure the time interval (in milli-seconds) till which a GARP
participant should wait for any join message before removing attribute
details (that is, waiting time for a registrar to move from empty state (MT)
to leave state (LV)). This time is started, once a leave message is sent to
de-register the attribute details. The leave messages are sent from a GARP
participant to another participant, when:
• Its attributes should be de-registered
• Its attributes are manually de-registered
• It receives leave messages from a third GARP participant
milli (that is, as 610, 620, 630 and so on). The leave time should be greater than
seconds> or two times as that of the GarpJoinTime. That is, the maximum value of the
leave time cannot be more than two times of the join time. For example, if
you configure join time as 500 milliseconds, then the leave time value can
be from 510 milliseconds to 1000 milliseconds only.
leaveall Enter to configure the time interval (in milli-seconds) till which the details
of the registered attributes are maintained. The attribute details should be
re-registered after this time interval. A leaveall message is sent from a GARP
participant to other GARP participants, after this time interval. This time is
started, once a GARP participant starts/once re-registration is done. The
leaveall messages are sent from a GARP participant to other participants
for:
• De-registering all registered attributes
• Re-registering all attributes with each of the participants

21.41. shutdown garp

To shut down the Generic Attribute Registration Protocol ( GARP) module in the switch on all ports and
release all memories used for the GARP module, use the command shutdown garp in Global Configura-
tion Mode. The no form of the command starts and enables the GARP module in the switch on all ports.
GMRP and GVRP are enabled explicitly, once the disabled GARP is enabled. GARP Multicast Registration
Protocol ( GMRP) is a Generic Attribute Registration Protocol application that provides a constrained
multicast flooding facility similar to IGMP snooping. GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol or Generic
VLAN Registration Protocol) is the GARP -based protocol mechanism, maintaining the VLAN information
in the switch dynamically. GARP is used to synchronize attribute information between the bridges in the
LAN. It allows registering and unregistering of attribute values, which are disseminated into the back-
bone of the GARP participants.

Layer 2 configuration and configure port Ingress/Egress Ethertype.
Dot1q shows tunneling related information.
NOTE: This command executes only if the bridge port type is set as CBP
(Customer Backbone Port).
ingress Enter to configure ingress Ethertype and hence allows the service
provider to support tunneling. Packets received on a port are considered
tagged when the packet Ethertype matches the Ethertype configured on
the port.
egress Enter to configure egress Ethertype. This object indicates the Ethertype
of the S-VLAN tag that has to be applied for all outgoing packets on this
port. If a valid value is in this object, all packets which are outgoing on
this port will contain the Ethertype as configured in this object
Ethertype Enter to configure the size of Ethertype.
<size(1-655 Integer Enter a value for Ethertype. This value ranges from 1 to 65535 with a
35)> default of 33024.

4094)> 4094.
acceptable- Enter to configure the type of VLAN dependent BPDU frames such as
frame-type GMRP BPDU that the port should accept during the VLAN membership
configuration.
all Enter to configure the acceptable frame type as all. All tagged, untagged
and priority tagged frames received on the port are accepted and
subjected to ingress filtering.
tagged Enter to configure the acceptable frame type as tagged.Only the tagged
frames received on the port are accepted and subjected to ingress
filtering. The untagged and priority tagged frames received on the port
are rejected. For ports in PBB bridge mode, for the following Port types,
the TAG descriptions are as follows
• for CNP S Tagged - S-Tag
• for CNP C Tagged - C-Tag
• for CNP Port Based - S-Tag
• PIP - I-Tag
• CBP - I-Tag
• PNP - B-tab or S-Tag.

CHAPTER 21 VLAN
untaggedAnd Enter to configure the acceptable frame type as untagged and priority
Prioritytag tagged. Only the untagged or priority tagged frames received on the
ged port are accepted and subjected to ingress filtering. The tagged frames
received on the port are rejected.
access Enter to configure the PVID (Port VLAN Identifier) on a port.
vlan Enter to configure the PVID (Port VLAN Identifier) on a port.
<vlan-id(1- Integer Enter a value for PVID (Port VLAN Identifier). This value ranges from 1 to
4094)> 4094.
NOTE: If the frame (untagged/priority tagged/customer VLAN tagged) is
received on a "tunnel" port, then the default PVID associated with the
port is used
NOTE: If the received frame cannot be classified as MAC-based or
port-and-protocol-based, then the PVID associated with the port is used.
NOTE: For ports in PBB bridge mode, PVID can be configured on CNP
(Customer Network Port) and CBP (Customer Backbone Port).
NOTE: Usage is based on acceptable frame type of the port. Packets will
be either dropped or accepted at ingress. Once a packet is accepted, if
the packet is having a tag, it will be processed against that tag. Other-
wise, the packet will be processed against PVID.
egress Enter to set the egress TPID-type for the port
TPID-type Enter to configure the egress TPID-type on a port
portbased Enter to set egress TPID-type as portbased. The egress TPID of the

To map an evaluated user priority to a traffic class on a port, configure the maximum number of traffic
classes supported on a port, or set a restricted feature configuration, use the command vlan in Interface
Configuration Mode. The maximum number of traffic classes supported on the port can be configured,
only if the VLAN switching feature is started and enabled in the switch. The no form of the command
resets the maximum traffic class value on the port to its default value and maps the default traffic class
to the specified priority value on the port.

CHAPTER 21 VLAN
Parameters
Enter to map an evaluated user priority to a traffic class on a port. The

map-priority frame received on the interface with the configured priority is
processed in the configured traffic class. Traffic class is used to meet the
latency and throughput requirement of time-critical traffic in a LAN
environment, where both time-critical and non-time-critical traffic
compete for the network bandwidth.
<priority Integer Enter a priority value to be set for the specified traffic class. This value
value(0-7) ranges from 0 to 7. The frames with the configured priority are mapped
to the specified traffic class. The priority determined for the received
frame is equivalent to the priority indicated in the received tagged
frame or one of the evaluated priorities determined based on the
media-type. The priority determined is equal to the Default User
Priority value for the ingress port, if the untagged frames are received
from Ethernet media. The priority determined is equal to the Regen
user priority for the ingress port and media-specific user priority, if the
untagged frames are received from non-Ethernet media.
traffic-class Enter to configure the traffic class value to which the received frame of
specified priority is to be mapped.

CHAPTER 21 VLAN
Integer Enter a traffic class value to which the received frame of specified
<traffic-cla priority is to be mapped. This value ranges from 0 to 7. Each value
ss represents the concerned traffic. They are:
value(0-7) • 0 - Best effort. This represents all kinds of non-detrimental traffic
that is not sensitive to QoS metrics such as jitter.
• 1 - Background. This represents bulk transfers and other activities
that are permitted on the network without impacting the network
usage for users and applications.
• 2 - Standard (spare traffic). This represents traffic of more impor-
tance than background but less importance than excellent load.
• 3 - Excellent load. This represents the best effort type service that
an information services organization should deliver to its most
important customers.
• 4 - Controlled load. This represents traffic subject to admission
control to assure that the traffic is received even when the
network is overloaded.
• 5 - Interactive voice and video. This represents traffic having delay
less than 100 milli-seconds.
• 6 - Internetwork control-Layer 3 network control. This represents
traffic having delay less than 10 milli-seconds.
• 7 - Network control-Layer 2 network control reserved traffic. This
represents traffic that demands special treatment based on its
requirements and relative importance.
The configured traffic class value should be less than the maximum
number of traffic classes in the port.
Enter to configure the maximum number of traffic classes supported on
max-traffic- a port
class
Integer Enter a value for the maximum number of traffic classes supported on a
<max-traffic port. The number of traffic classes supported depends on the hardware
-class used, which can limit the number of traffic classes to a lower number.
value(1-8) Eight traffic classes for handling priority traffic are supported. Each
traffic is assigned a traffic type based on the time sensitiveness of the
traffic. This value ranges from 1 to 8. The default is 8.
restricted Enter to configure the restricted feature configuration.
disable Enter to disable the restricted VLAN registration.
enable Enter to enable the restricted VLAN registration.

• The evaluated user priority can be mapped to the traffic class, only if the VLAN switching feature is
started and enabled in the switch.
• Mapping packets to a queue based on the COS value in the packet can be achieved by mapping the
packets COS value to internal priority and then the internal priority to a Queue Id. Since the Cos
mapping to a queue is not directly supported in bcm, alternate command has to be configured for
achieving this based on the internal priority

21.48. Nested VLAN with sub-switch CLI command

The sub-switch command in the Global Configuration Mode provides a convenient way to create a
nested VLAN that bridges tagged and untagged frames unaltered on chosen ports of the switch.
Nested VLAN Feature

The nested VLAN feature allows a set of ports on the switch to be combined in a smaller independent
switch (a sub-switch). The sub switch leaves the Ethernet frames unchanged from entry to exit, while still
providing the correct bridging to the destination. This allows tagged and untagged frames to coexist
within the nested VLAN.
The following network can be set up with the sub-switch nested vlan 50 gigabit 0/9-12 command
allowing for an example of an untagged path and a nested VLAN 50 path through the switch.
The syntax of the sub-switch command is as follows:

sub-switch
sub-switch
[nested] vlan <vlan-id> ([<interface-type> <0/a-b,0/c,...>] [<inter-
face-type> <0/a-b,0/c,...>])

Parameters

nested Enter to select the optional nested VLAN feature.
vlan Enter to set the subnet mask for the configured IP address. The
configured subnet mask should be in the same subnet of the
network in which the switch is placed
vlan-id Integer Enter to configure the number of high-order bits in the IP address.
These bits are common among all hosts within a network. This
gigabitethernet Enter for Gigabitethernet.
Enter for Extreme-Ethernet.
extreme-etherne
t
Examples
The command below shows an example of nested VLAN 20 path through the switch.
iS5Comm# (config)# sub-switch nested vlan 20 gigabit 0/7-8,0/11-12
Restrictions
Creating a nested VLAN in this way requires that:
• the VLAN does not already exist, and
• the list of all ports belong only to the default VLAN.
On creation:
• the ports will be removed from the default VLAN and added to the new VLAN,
• the PVID of all the ports will be set to the VLAN ID, and
• the nested VLAN feature will be enabled on all the ports.
The PVID will be restricted to be used only in this VLAN to ensure that there is no mixing with otherVLANs.
675
NESTED VLAN WITH ELEMENTARY CLI COMMANDS
CHAPTER 21 VLAN
Adding or removing ports from the nested VLAN requires that:

1) the VLAN is deleted
2) a new nested VLAN is created to ensure that all ports on the port list are in the correct states when
the nested VLAN feature is enabled
Note that deleting a nested VLAN will set the PVIDs of all ports back to the default PVID.
In HSR/PRP networks, both tagged and untagged frames can originate from a single redundant node
depending on the protocol being used. The nested VLAN feature will allow both types of frames to reach
there destinations by coexisting in the same nested VLAN.
A HSR QuadBox has a similar built-in feature to allow tagged and untagged frames through, as shown in
the following diagram.
21.49. Nested VLAN with elementary CLI commands

While the high level sub-switch command provides an user-friendly way to set up a nested VLAN, such a
VLAN can be also created with elementary CLI console or SNMP commands that will require more steps
than these performed automatically by the sub-switch command.
Creating a Nested VLAN with elementary CLI Commands

To create a nested VLAN by elementary CLI console or SNMP commands, the following steps are
required:
• Removing required ports from all other VLANs
• Creating a new VLAN with member ports and untagged ports that are the same, and without any
forbidden ports, and
• Enabling the nested VLAN feature for the VLAN.
Examples
For example, a nested VLAN can be created with the following elementary CLI console commands:
iS5Comm# (config)# vlan 1
iS5Comm# (config-vlan)# no ports gi 0/7-8,0/11-12 untagged gi 0/7-8,0/11-12

iS5Comm# (config)# vlan 20
iS5Comm# (config-vlan)# ports gi 0/7-8,0/11-12 untagged gi 0/7-8,0/11-12
iS5Comm# (config-vlan)# vlan nestedvlan enable
iS5Comm# (config-vlan)# exit
iS5Comm# (config)# exit
The example above provides details on how to create a nested VLAN with elementary CLI console
commands.
For information on a high level user-friendly way to set up a nested VLAN, see the sub-switch command.
Verification of the Created Nested VLAN

To verify the nested VLAN, use the following CLI console command:

ARP
CHAPTER 22 IP
IP
22. IP
IP (Internet Protocol) is an identifier for a computer or device on a TCP/ IP network. Networks using the
TCP/ IP protocol route messages based on the IP address of the destination. The format of an IP address
is a 32-bit numeric address written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be zero to
255. For example, 10.5.25.180.
Every computer that communicates over the Internet is assigned an IP address that uniquely identifies
the device and distinguishes it from other computers on the Internet. Within an isolated network, IP
addresses can be assigned at random if each one is unique. However, to connect a private network to the
Internet, registered IP addresses must be used (called Internet addresses) to avoid duplicates. The four
numbers in an IP address are used in different ways to identify a particular network and a host on that
network.
Four regional Internet registries—ARIN, RIPE NCC, LACNIC, and APNIC—assign Internet addresses from
the following three classes.
• Class A - supports 16 million hosts on each of 126 networks
• Class B - supports 65,000 hosts on each of 16,000 networks
• Class C - supports 254 hosts on each of 2 million networks
The number of unassigned Internet addresses is running out, so a new classless scheme called CIDR
(Classless Inter-Domain Routing) is gradually replacing the system based on classes A, B, and C and is tied
to adoption of IPv6. ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) is an extension to the IP defined by RFC
792. ICMP supports packets containing error, control, and informational messages. For example, the ping
command uses ICMP to test an Internet connection.
The IP implements all components required for IP forwarding. The various components of the IP include
ARP, RARP, RTM, ICMP, IRDP, IGMP, InARP, BOOTP, TFTP, TRACE ROUTE, PING and UDP.
22.1. arp
To add a static entry in the ARP cache or set the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) cache timeout, use
the command arp in Global Configuration Mode. The no form of this command resets ARP cache timeout
to its default value or deletes a static entry from the ARP cache.

ables in Global Configuration Mode. The no form of this command disables sending ICMP unreachable
messages. ICMP provides a mechanism that enables a router or destination host to report an error in
data traffic processing to the original source of the packet. This informs the source that the packet is
dropped.

22.16. ipv4 enable

To enable IPv4 processing on the interface that has not been configured with an explicit IPv4 address,
use the command ipv4 enable in Interface VLAN Configuration Mode. When subnet check is enabled, the
switch acts as an ARP proxy for target address in different subnet. The no form of this command disables
IPv4 processing on the interface.

To set the maximum number of paths that can be connected to a host, use the command
maximum-paths in Global Configuration Mode. The no form of this command sets the maximum number
of paths to its default value. The command provides multiple forwarding paths for data traffic and
enables load balancing. It improves the overall network fault tolerance, as a failure in one instance does
not affect the other instances.

22.18. ping
To send echo messages, use the command ping in Privileged EXEC Mode. The Packet Internet Groper (
PING) module is built based on the ICMP echo request and ICMP echo response messages. The network
administrator uses ping on a remote device to verify its presence. PING involves sending ICMP echo
messages repeatedly and measuring the time between transmission and reception of message. The
output displays the time taken for each packet to be transmitted, number of packets transmitted,
number of packets received, and packet loss percentage.

ABR-TYPE
CHAPTER 23 OSPF
OSPF
23. OSPF
OSPF
(Open Shortest Path First) protocol is an Interior Gateway Protocol used to distribute routing information
within a single autonomous system. Routers use link-state algorithms to send routing information to all
nodes in an inter-network by calculating the shortest path to each node based on topography of the
Internet constructed by each node. Each router sends that portion of the routing table (keeps track of
routes to particular network destinations), which describes the state of its own links, and it also sends
the complete routing structure (topography).
A router attempting a graceful restart originates link-local Opaque- LSAs, herein called Grace- LSAs,
announcing its intention to perform a graceful restart within a specified amount of time or "grace
period". During the grace period, its neighbors continue to announce the restarting router in their LSAs
as if it were fully adjacent (i.e., OSPF neighbor state Full), but only if the network topology remains static
(i.e., the contents of the LSAs in the link-state database having LS types 1-5,7 remain unchanged and peri-
odic refreshes are allowed). There are two roles being played by OSPF routers during graceful restart.
First there is the router that is being restarted. Then there are the router's neighbors, which must coop-
erate in order for the restart to be graceful. During graceful restart, we say that the neighbors are running
in "helper mode". For more details, refer to RFC 3623.
The advantage of shortest path first algorithms is that they result in smaller more frequent updates
everywhere. They converge quickly, thus preventing such problems as routing loops and count-to-infinity
(when routers continuously increment the hop count to a particular network). This makes for a stable
network.
Before configuring OSPF, Route Redistribution (RRD) must be enabled. In addition, all OSPF interface
related configurations, can be done only when the global OSPF is enabled.

To set alternative ABR (Area Border Router) types, use the command abr-type in OSPF Router Configu-

DHCP CLIENT
CHAPTER 24 DHCP
DHCP
24. DHCP
DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used in a wide variety of devices, such as ISDN routers, firewalls,
etc., for assigning IP addresses to workstations. Besides obtaining IP address, other configuration param-
eters for a workstation can also be configured for a DHCP server. DHCP clients can retrieve these param-
eters along with the IP address.
DHCP is based on client-server architecture. DHCP servers are configured with an IP address and several
other configuration parameters. DHCP clients, typically workstations, obtain this IP address at start-up.
The client obtains the address for a time period termed as the “lease” period. DHCP clients renew the
address by sending a request for the IP address before the lease expires.
DHCP uses UDP (User Datagram Protocol) as its transport protocol and an UDP port for communication.
DHCP relay agents connect servers present on a LAN with a client present on another.
24.1. DHCP Client

This section describes the DHCP Client on the switch.
DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Client is an Internet host using DHCP to obtain configuration
parameters such as an IP address.The figure below shows the basic steps that occur when a DHCP client
requests an IP address from a DHCP server. The client, Host A, sends a DHCP DISCOVER broadcast
message to locate a DHCP server. A DHCP server offers configuration parameters (such as an IP address,
a MAC address, a domain name, and a lease for the IP address) to the client in a DHCP OFFER unicast
message.
The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a communication protocol used for discovering the link layer
address, such as a MAC address, associated with a given Internet layer address, typically an IPv4 address.
The ARP uses a simple message format containing one address resolution request or response. The size
of the ARP message depends on the link layer and network layer address sizes. The message header spec-
ifies the types of network in use at each layer as well as the size of addresses of each. The message header
785
DHCP RELAY
CHAPTER 24 DHCP
is completed with the operation code for request (1) and reply (2). The payload of the packet consists of
four addresses, the hardware and protocol address of the sender and receiver hosts.
24.2. DHCP Relay

This section describes the DHCP Relay agent on the switch.
DHCP relay agent is a host or an IP router that allows the DHCP client and DHCP server in different
subnets to communicate with each other, so that the DHCP client can obtain its configuration informa-
tion while booting. The relay agent receives packets from the client, inserts information such as network
details, and forwards the modified packets to the server. The server identifies the client’s network from
the received packets, allocates the IP address accordingly, and sends reply to the relay. The relay strips
the information inserted by the server and broadcasts the packets to the client’s network.
Relay Agent Information Option
Automatic DHCP address allocation is typically based on an IP address, whether it be the gateway IP
address (giaddr field of the DHCP packet) or the incoming interface IP address. In some networks, it is
necessary to use additional information to further determine which IP addresses to allocate. By using the
relay agent information option, the DHCP relay agent can include additional information about itself
when forwarding client-originated DHCP packets to a DHCP server.
When using the relay agent information option, the DHCP relay agent can include additional information
about itself when forwarding client-originated DHCP packets to a DHCP server. The DHCP server can use
this information to assign IP addresses, perform access control, and set quality of service (QoS) and secu-
rity policies (or other parameter-assignment policies) for each subscriber of a service provider network.
The relay agent information option is inserted into the DHCP packet as follows:
1) The DHCP client generates a DHCP request and broadcasts it on the network.
2) The DHCP relay agent intercepts the broadcast DHCP request packet and inserts the relay agent
information option (option 82) in the packet. The relay agent information option contains the
related suboptions.The DHCP relay agent unicasts the DHCP packet to the DHCP server.The DHCP
server receives the packet and uses the suboptions to assign IP addresses and other configuration
parameters and forwards them back to the client.
3) The suboption fields are stripped off of the packet by the relay agent while forwarding to the client.
24.3. DHCP Server

This section describes the DHCP Server on the switch.
DHCP
786
BOOTFILE CONFIG-FILE
CHAPTER 24 DHCP
server is used for dynamically assigning unique IP address and other configuration parameters, such as
gateway, to interfaces of a DHCP client. The IP address is leased to the interface only for a particular time
period as mentioned in the DHCP lease. The interface should be renewed the DHCP lease once it expires.
The DHCP server assigns IP addresses from specified address pools on a router and manages them. Then,
the subnet network number and mask of the DHCP address pool, the domain name for the client, the IP
address of a DNS server that is available to a DHCP client, and the IP address of the default router for a
DHCP client are specified.
As defined in RFC 3261, a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) server must be an outbound proxy server. In
the context of this document, a SIP server refers to the host the SIP server is running on. SIP is an appli-
cation-layer control protocol that can establish, modify, and terminate multimedia sessions or estab-
lished by Voice-over-IP telephony calls.
24.4. bootfile config-file

To define the name of the boot image file that the DHCP client should download during auto install
process, use the command bootfile config-file in Global Configuration Mode. The no form of the
command deletes the specified boot file name and assigns the value of boot file name as None (that is,
no file is set as boot image file). The DHCP server passes this file name to the DHCP client. This command
is a complete standardized implementation of the existing command and operates similar to that of the
command ip dhcp bootfile.
bootfile config-file
bootfile config-file <bootfile (63)>
no bootfile config-file
no bootfile config-file
Parameters
<bootfile (63)> Enter a name for the boot image file. This is a string with maximum size
of 63.

no network
no network
Parameters
<start-IP> Enter a value for the IP subnet address for the DHCP pool. The addresses
within the specified network subnet are assigned to the DHCP client, if
no restriction is applied. For example, the value is configured as 20.0.0.0,
then any one of the address within the range from 20.0.0.1 to
20.255.255.254 can be assigned to the DHCP client if no other
limitations such as end IP address are set. This value should be unique
(that is, one subnet address can be assigned only for one DHCP address
pool).
<mask> Enter a value for the subnet mask for the network IP address. This is a
32-bit number which is used to divide the IP address into network
address and host address. This value is used to automatically calculate
the end IP address for the pool. For example: The value 254.0.0.0
represents that the end IP address is 21.255.255.254, if the network
subnet is set as 20.0.0.0
Enter a number of high-order bits in the IP address. These bits are
<prefix-len common among all hosts within a network. This value should be
gth (1-31)> preceded by a slash (/) with space before and after the slash. This value
is used to automatically calculate the end IP address for the pool and set
the mask for the subnet. For example: value 20.0.0.0 / 6 represents that
the end IP address is 23.255.255.254 and the mask is 252.0.0.0.
<end ip> Enter a value for the end IP address for the network IP subnet set for the
DHCP address pool. This value restricts the IP addresses that can be
assigned to the DHCP client. This value is used to manually set the end IP
address. This value overrides the end IP address calculated automatically
using the mask or prefix-length.

AUTO-SUMMARY
CHAPTER 25 RIP
RIP
25. RIP
RIP
(Routing Information Protocol) is a widely used protocol for managing router information within a
self-contained network such as a corporate local area network or an interconnected group of such LANs.
is classified by the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) as one of several internal gateway protocols.
RIP sends routing-update messages at regular intervals and when the network topology changes. When
a router receives a routing update that includes changes to an entry, it updates its routing table to reflect
the new route. The metric value for the path is increased by 1, and the sender is indicated as the next
hop. RIP routers maintain only the best route (the route with the lowest metric value) to a destination.
After updating its routing table, the router immediately begins transmitting routing updates to inform
other network routers about the change. These updates are sent independently of the regularly sched-
uled updates that RIP routers send. RIP uses a hop count to determine network distance. Each host with
a router in the network uses the routing table information to determine the next host to route a packet
for a specified destination.
25.1. auto-summary
To enable auto summarization feature in RIP, enable or disable the auto summarization of routes in RIP,
and restore the default behavior of automatic summarization of subnet routes into network-level routes,
use the command auto-summary in RIP Router Configuration Mode.
auto-summary
auto-summary [enable] [disable]

DEBUG IP RIP
CHAPTER 25 RIP
Parameters
enable Enter to enable auto summarization feature in RIP, so that the summary routes
are sent in regular updates for RIP. This is the default.
disable Enter to disable auto summarization feature in RIP, so that either individual
subnet route is sent or subnet routes are sent based on the specific
aggregation configured over the interface.
Mode
RIP Router Configuration Mode
Prerequisites
Auto-summarization feature must be disabled to configure interface specific aggregation with RIP
version 2.
Examples
iS5Comm(config)# router rip
iS5Comm(config-router)# auto-summary disable
25.2. debug ip rip

To set the debug level for RIP module, use the command debug ip rip in Privileged EXEC Mode. The no
form of the command resets the debug level for RIP module. This command allows combination of debug
levels to be configured (that is, more than one level of trace can be enabled or disabled). The debug levels
are configured one after the other and not in single execution of the command.

DEFAULT-INFORMATION
CHAPTER 25 RIP
Examples
iS5Comm# debug ip rip all
To set the metric to be used for default route propagated over the interface, use the command
default-information in Interface Configuration Mode. The no form of the command disables the origina-
tion of default route over the interface. The administrative distance can be enabled for one route map
only. If distance needs to be enabled for a route map, then distance should be disabled for an already
assigned route map. This command is a standardized implementation of the existing command: ip rip
default route originate. It operates similar to the existing command.
default-information
default-information originate <metric (1-15)> [route-map <string(32)>]
no default-information originate
Parameters
originate Enter to enable default route propagated over the interface. This
distance value will not be used for distributing list.
<metric(1-15)> Integer Enter a metric value to be used for default route. This value ranges
from 1 to 15.
route-map Enter to configure the name of the existing route map for which
the metric value should be enabled and set.

25.4. default-metric
To set the default metric values to be used for redistributed routes for RIP, use the command
default-metric in RIP Router Configuration Mode. The command is used in conjunction with the redis-
tribute router command to cause the current routing protocol to use the same metric value for all redis-
tributed routes. The no form of the command sets the metric used with redistributed routes to its default
value. The metric value given in the no form of the command will be ignored during the execution of the
command.
default-metric
default-metric [<value (1-16)>]
no default-metric
no default-metric [<short (1-16)>]
Parameters

<value> Enter a route-map value. A default metric helps in solving the problem
of redistributing routes with incompatible metrics. The default metric
provides a reasonable substitute and enables the redistribution to
proceed further. The metric value ranges between 1 and 16.

25.13. passive-interface
To suppress the RIP routing updates on a specified VLAN interface in a defined L2 switch context / default
context or on a specified router port, use the command passive-interface in RIP Router Configuration
Mode. It denotes that the RIP process runs in a passive VLAN interface / passive router port. If the
sending of routing updates is disabled on an interface, the particular subnet will continue to be adver-
tised to other interfaces, and updates from other routers on that interface continue to be received and
processed. The no form of the command restricts suppressing of RIP routing updates from an interface.

ADDRESS-FAMILY
CHAPTER 26 BGP
BGP
26. BGP
BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is used to build an AS connectivity graph that is used to prune routing
loops and enforce policies at AS level.
The following sections outline all BGP-related CLI commands.
26.1. address-family
To facilitate entering of the router in the Address-family Router Configuration Mode and to enable
configuration of the session that carries standard vpnv4 address prefixes and enters into VPN Address
Family Configuration Mode, use the command address-family in BGP Router Configuration Mode.
Routing information is advertised for IPv4 address family when a BGP session is configured, unless the
default advertising is reset. The no form of the command deletes the peers belonging to the IPv4, IPv6
and VPNv4 address family.
address-family
address-family [ipv4 | ipv6 |l2vpn] | vpnv4
no address-family
no address-family [ipv4 | ipv6 |l2vpn] | vpnv4

AGGREGATE-ADDRESS
CHAPTER 26 BGP
Parameters
ipv4 Enter to configure a session that carries standard IPv4 address prefixes.
ipv6 Enter to configure a session that carries standard IPv6 address prefixes.
l2vpn Enter to configure a session that carries L2VPN VPLS address prefixes.
vpnv4 Enter to enable configuration of the session that carries standard vpnv4
address prefixes and enters into VPN Address Family Configuration Mode.
Mode
BGP Router Configuration Mode
Notes
BGP4 VPN allows the Service Providers to use their IP backbone to provide VPN services to their
customers. BGP is used to distribute VPN routing information across the provider’s backbone and MPLS
is used to forward VPN traffic from one VPN site to another.
Examples
iS5Comm (config-router)# address-family ipv4
iS5Comm(config-router-af4)#
iS5Comm (config-router)# address-family vpnv4
iS5Comm(config-router-afvpnv4)#
26.2. aggregate-address
To create an aggregate entry in a BGP or multiprotocol BGP routing table if any more-specific BGP or
multiprotocol BGP routes are available that fall in the specified range, use the command aggre-
gate-address in BGP Router Configuration Mode. The entries in the table specifies the IP address based
on which the routing information has to be aggregated. The aggregate route will be advertised as coming
from autonomous system. The atomic aggregate attribute will be set only if some of the information in
the AS PATH is missing in the aggregated route, else it will not be set.The no form of the command
deletes the specified entry from the aggregate table.

Parameters
index Enter to configure the entry containing information about the IP

address on which the aggregation has to be done..
<1-100> Integer Enter a value for the entry containing information about the IP
address on which the aggregation has to be done
<ip-address> Enter to configure the route prefix in the Network Layer
Reachability Information on which aggregate policy needs to be
applied.
<prefixlen> Enter to configure the number of high-order bits in the IP address.
These bits are common among all hosts within a network. This
value ranges from 0 to 32 for IPv4 address and between 0 and 128
for IPv6 Address.
[summary-only] Enter to specify that aggregated (summarized) route alone will be
sent to the peers. If this is not specified , both the summary and
the more-specific routes based on which the summary entry was
generated are be advertised to the peers
[as-set] Enter to generate autonomous system set path information.
[suppress-map Enter to specify the name of the route map used to select the
map-name] routes to be suppressed. The route map contains the rules for
suppressing the more-specific routes in forming the aggregate
route. When suppress-map configuration is used along with
summary only option, summary-only configuration command
doesn't have any effect. And the more-specific routes that the
suppress-map suppresses are not advertised. Other routes are
advertised in addition to the aggregated route. This value is a string
with a maximum length of 20.
[advertise-map Integer Enter to specify the name of the route map used to select for
map-name] forming aggregate routes. The route map contains the rules for
selecting specific routes for aggregation Other routes are
advertised. When advertise-map is used, only advertise-map
influences the creation of aggregate entry. In absence of
advertise-map, the aggregate route inherits the attributes of the
more specific routes, both suppressed and unsuppressed.This value
is a string with a maximum length of 20.
883
BGP
CHAPTER 26 BGP
[attribute-map Enter to specify the name of the route map used to form the
map-name] attribute of the aggregate route. The route map contains the rules
for setting the attributes for the aggregated route. When
attribute-map and advertise-map along with autonomous system
set path information are enabled and other configurations, the
attribute-map overrides the attribute that is formed with the
routes selected by the advertise-map.. This value is a string with a
maximum length of 200
Mode
Notes
The IP address and the prefix length can be configured, only if the Aggregate admin status of the BGP is
down.

CHAPTER 26 BGP
Parameters
always-compare Enter to enable the comparison of Multi Exit Discriminator (MED)

-med for routes received from different AS. The MED is one of the
parameters that is considered when selecting the best path among
many alternative paths. The path with a lower MED is preferred over
a path with a higher MED. The no form of the command disables the
comparison of MED for routes received from different autonomous
system. MED will be compared only for routes from same neighbor
autonomous system
asnotation dot Enter to change the output format of BGP ASNs (Autonomous
System numbers) from asplain to asdot notation. The no form of the
command resets the output format of BGP ASNs from asdot to
asplain notation. By default, the output format of BGP ASNs is
asplain. Note that BGP asnotation can be changed only if
four-byte-ASN is enabled.
bestpath med Enter to enable Multi Exit Discriminator (MED) comparison among
confed paths learnt from confederation peers. The comparison between
MEDs is only made if there are no external autonomous systems in
the path. If there is an external autonomous system in the path,
then the external MED is passed transparently through the
confederation, and the comparison is not made. The no form of the
command disables MED comparison among paths learnt from
confed peers and prevent the software from considering the MED
attribute in comparing paths. As default, in BGP route selection
algorithm, MED attributes comparison between two routes
originated within the local confederation is disabled.
client-to-clie Enter to configure the Route Reflector to support route reflection to
nt reflection Client Peers. By default, the clients of a route reflector are not
required to be fully meshed and the routes from a client are
reflected to other clients. If the clients are fully meshed, route
reflection is not required. The no form of the command disables
client-to-client reflection. If disabled, then Route Reflector will not
advertise routes learnt from a client peer to other client peers. This
occurs when all peers within a cluster are fully-meshed and the
client peer itself is able to advertise routes to other clients of the
route-reflector
888
BGP
CHAPTER 26 BGP
cluster-id Enter to configure the Cluster ID for the Router Reflector of the BGP
cluster which has more than one route reflector. Usually in a cluster
of clients with single route reflector the cluster is identified by the
router ID of the route reflector. In order to increase redundancy and
avoid a single point of failure, a cluster might have more than one
route reflector. In this case, all route reflectors in the cluster must be
configured with the 4-byte cluster ID so that a route reflector can
recognize updates from route reflectors in the same cluster. The no
form of the command resets the Cluster ID for the Route Reflector.
cluster id Enter a value for the Cluster ID. It ranges from 1 to 4294967295.

IGMP Snooping
27. IGMP Snooping
Internet Group Multicast Protocol (IGMP) is the protocol used by a host to inform a router when it joins
(or leaves) an Internet multicast group. IGMP is only used on a local network; a router must use another
multicast routing protocol to inform other routers of group membership.
IGMP Snooping (IGS) is a feature that allows the switch to “listen in” on the IGMP conversation between
hosts and routers. In IGS, a host computer uses IGMP to inform a router that it intends to listen to a
specific multicast address. If another computer snoops such packets, it can learn the multicast sessions
to which other computers on the local network are listening. The multicast packet transfer happens only
between the source and the destination computers. Broadcasting of packets is avoided.
IGMP snooping significantly reduces traffic from streaming media and other bandwidth-intensive IP
multicast applications.
27.1. debug ip igmp snooping

To specifies the debug levels for IGMP snooping module, use the command debug ip igmp snooping in
Privileged EXEC Mode. The no form of the command resets the debug level for IGMP snooping module.

Parameters
enhanced-mod Enter to configure the snooping system enhanced mode in the switch.
e It is provided to enhance the operation of IGMP snooping module to
duplicate multicast traffic by learning multicast group entries based on
the port and inner VLAN. This mode of operation is applied when the
downstream devices are less intelligent or not capable of duplicating
multicast traffic.
enable Enter to enable snooping system enhanced mode in the switch.
NOTE: Enhanced mode is in enabled state only when the snooping
mode is set as IP Based.
disable Enter to disable snooping system enhanced mode in the switch. This is
default.
filter Enter to configure the IGMP snooping filter. The IGS filtering feature
restricts channel registration from being added to the database. In
transparent snooping, the filtered packet will not be added to the
snooping database but will be forwarded upstream. When disabled, all
filter related configurations remain but the incoming reports will not
be subject to filtering. IGS module programs the hardware to remove
the configured rate limit. It flushes all registrations learnt through a
port if a threshold limit is configured for this interface.
group-query- Enter to set the time interval (in seconds) after which the switch sends
interval a group specific query to find out if there are any interested receivers
in the group when it receives a leave message. If it does not receive a
response from the group, the port is removed from the group
membership information in the forwarding database.
<(2-5) Integer Enter a value to set the time interval (in seconds). It ranges from 2 to
mrouter-time Enter to set the IGMP snooping router time-out interval (in seconds)
-out after which port is deleted if no IGMP router control packets are
received
<(60 – 600) Integer Enter a value to set the IGMP snooping router time-out interval (in
seconds> seconds). It ranges from 2 to 5.
multicast-vl Enter to configure the snooping system enhanced mode in the switch.

disable Enter to disable snooping system enhanced mode. This is the default.
port-purge-i Enter to set the time interval (in seconds) after which the switch sends
nterval a group specific query to find out if there are any interested receivers
in the group when it receives a leave message. If it does not receive a
response from the group, the port is removed from the group
membership information in the forwarding database.
<(130 - 1225) Integer Enter a value to set the time interval (in seconds). It ranges from 2 to
proxy Enter to configure proxy reporting in the IGMP snooping switch. In
proxy mode, the switch acts as a querier for all downstream interfaces
and as a host for all upstream interfaces. The switch sends general
query to all downstream interfaces at the query interval and collects
information about the member ports. The proxy sends current
consolidated report and state change report to upstream interfaces.
By default, the proxy is disabled in the IGMP snooping switch.
NOTE: Proxy can be enabled in the IGMP snooping switch only if the
proxy reporting is disabled in the snooping switch.
proxy-report Enter to configure proxy reporting in the IGMP snooping switch. When
ing enabled, the switch supports the multicast router to learn the
membership information of the multicast group. It forwards the
multicast packets based on group membership information. The
proxy-reporting switch acts as a querier to the downstream hosts. It
sends proxy-reporting to upstream queriers. By default,
proxy-reporting is enabled.
NOTE: Proxy reporting can be enabled in the IGMP snooping switch only
if the proxy is disabled in the switch.
query-forwar Enter to configure the snooping system enhanced mode in the switch.
d It is provided to enhance the operation of IGMP snooping module to
multicast traffic.
all-ports Enter to configure the query messages to be sent to all member ports
of VLAN. the IGMP query forward administrative control status as all
VLAN member ports. This is done to find out if there are any
interested listeners in the network.
942
IP IGMP SNOOPING
non-router-p Enter to configure the query messages to be sent only to non-router

orts ports. This is done to reduce the traffic in the network. This is default.
report-forwa Enter to specify if IGMP reports should be forwarded on all VLAN
rd member ports or router ports or non-edge ports. The configuration
enables the switch to forward IGMP report messages to the selected
ports thus avoiding flooding of the network.
all-ports Enter to configure the IGMP reports to be forwarded to all ports of a
VLAN.
router-ports Enter to configure the IGMP reports to be forwarded only to router
ports of a VLAN. This is the default.
non-edge-por Enter to configure the IGMP reports to be forwarded only to router
ts ports of a VLAN.
non-router-p Enter to configure the IGMP reports to be forwarded only to STP
orts non-edge ports of a VLAN.
report-suppr Enter to set the IGMP snooping report-suppression time interval for
ession-inter which IGMPv2 report messages will not get forwarded to the router
val ports for the same group. The switch forwards IGMPv2 report
messages to a multicast group. A timer is started immediately after
forwarding the report message and runs for set period of time. During
this interval, the switch does not forward another IGMPv2 report
message addressed to the same multicast group to the router ports.
NOTE: The ip igmp snooping report-suppression-interval is used only
when the proxy and proxy-reporting are disabled.
<(1 – 25) Integer Enter a value to set the time interval (in seconds). It ranges from 2 to
retry-count Enter to set the maximum number of group specific queries sent on a
port on reception of a IGMPv2 leave message. This command sets the
maximum number of group specific queries sent by the switch to
check if there are any interested v2 receivers for the group when it
receives a leave message in the proxy/ proxy-reporting mode. The port
is deleted from the group membership information in the forwarding
database if the maximum retry count exceeds set number.
<1 - 5> Integer Enter a value to set he maximum number of group specific queries
sent on a port on reception of a IGMPv2 leave message. It ranges from
1 to 5.
send-query Enter to configure the IGMP general query transmission feature upon
topology change in the switch.
943
IP IGMP SNOOPING
enable Enter to enable the snooping query transmission status which

generates IGMP query messages
disable Enter to disable the snooping query transmission status which stops
the switch from generating IGMP query messages
source-only Enter to configure the IGMP snooping port purge time interval after
which the port gets deleted if IGMP reports are not received. When a
port receives reports from hosts, the timer is initiated. If the port
receives another report before the timer expires, the timer is
restarted. If the port does not receive any report from hosts till the
timer expires, then the port entry is purged from the multicast
database.
learning Enter to set learning age timer configuration.
age-timer Enter to set interval (in seconds) after which port is deleted if no IGMP
reports are received.
<short(130-1 Integer Enter a value for the interval (in seconds) after which a port is deleted
225)> if no IGMP reports are received. The default is 260 seconds.
sparse-mode Enter to configure the snooping system sparse mode in the switch. In
the sparse mode, the IGS module drops the unknown multicast traffic
when there is no listener for the multicast data. In the
non-sparse-mode, the IGS module forwards the unknown multicast
traffic. The multicast data gets flooded to the member port of vlan.
NOTE: Sparse mode is in enabled state only when the snooping mode is
set as MAC Based.
enable Enter to enable the snooping system sparse mode in the switch. It
drops unknown multicast packets.
disable Enter to disable the snooping system sparse mode in the switch.
Floods unknown multicast packets. This is default.
vlan <vlanid Enter to enable fast leave processing and IGMP snooping for a specific
(1-4094)> VLAN. It enables IGMP snooping only for the specific VLAN when IGMP
snooping is globally disabled. When the fast leave feature is enabled,
port information is removed from a multicast group entry immediately
after fast leave message is received. The ID of the VLAN ranges
between 1 and 4094.
immediate-le Enter to set fast leave processing configuration. By default, fast leave
ave processing is disabled in all VLANs.
944
IP IGMP SNOOPING
mrouter Enter to enable IGMP snooping and configures a list of multicast

router ports for a specific VLAN, if IGMP snooping is globally enabled.
This will enable IGMP snooping only for the specific VLAN, if IGMP
snooping is globally disabled. Any IGMP message received on a switch
is forwarded only on the router-ports and not on host ports. In this
manner, the IGMP snooping functionality avoids flooding of IGMP
query messages from the host to the entire network.
<ifXtype> Enter to configure the list of multicast router ports for the specified
type of interface. The interface can be:
transfer up to 100 megabits per second.

multicast group, multicast source and filter mode. These entries are
maintained in access profiles. Each profile is associated with a
particular VLAN which is categorized as multicast VLAN. When any
untagged report or leave message is received (that is, packet with no
tag in a customer bridge or packet with no S-tag in a provider or
802.1ad bridge), and if the group and source address in the received
packet matches any rule in this profile, then the received packet is
classified to be associated to the VLAN (that is, multicast VLAN) to
which the profile is mapped.
NOTE:
• Multicast snooping mode should be IP based.
• This command can be executed only after creating a multicast
profile and setting the action for the created profile as permit.
• The configurations done by this command will take effect only if
the profile is activated.

for the VPLS service. This value ranges from 4096 to 65535.
match for the VID in management operations or filtering database entries.
NOTE: The theoretical maximum for the maximum number of VFI is 65535, but
the actual number of VFI supported is a sizing constant. Based on this, the
maximum number of VFI ID accepted in the management interface is
restricted. For example, if 100 VFIs are supported, the maximum number of VFI
supported will be restricted to maximum number of VLANs + 100. An error
message is displayed for any value beyond this range.

27.7. mvr
To configure the multicast VLAN feature on a port, use the command mvr in Global Configuration Mode.
Multicast VLAN feature is used for applications where wide-scale deployment of multicast traffic is
necessary. MVLAN registration allows a subscriber on a port to subscribe and unsubscribe to a multicast
stream on any of the multicast VLANs. Multicast VLANs enable efficient multicast data flow in separate
M- VLANs, while normal data flows through VLANs. This command is a standardized implementation of
the existing command: ip igmp snooping multicast-vlan. It operates similar to the existing command. The

RMON
28. RMON
RMON (Remote Monitoring) is a standard monitoring specification that enables various network moni-
tors and console systems to exchange network-monitoring data.
The RMON specification defines a set of statistics and functions that can be exchanged between
RMON-compliant console managers and network probes. As such, RMON provides network administra-
tors with comprehensive network-fault diagnosis, planning, and performance-tuning information.
28.1. rmon alarm

To set an alarm on a MIB object, use the command rmon alarm in Global Configuration Mode. The no
form of the command deletes the alarm configured on the MIB object. The Alarm group periodically
takes statistical samples from variables in the probe and compares them to thresholds that have been
configured.

QoS
(Quality of Service) defines the ability to provide different priorities to different applications, users or
data flows or the ability to guarantee a certain level of performance to a data flow. QoS refers to resource
reservation control mechanisms rather than the achieved service quality and specifies a guaranteed
throughput level.
QoS provides a complete Quality of Service solution across VPNs and helps in implementing service provi-
sioning policies for application or customers, who desire to have an enhanced performance for their
traffic on the Internet.

CHAPTER 30 ACL
ACL
30. ACL
The device offers a portable design that allows rapid integration of the solution with the choice of RTOS,
CPU, and various chipsets. This section describes the CLI commands of the Access Control list (
ACL) features.
The ACL space is shared by Layer 2 ACLs, Layer 3 ACLs, and the filters used for trapping the protocol
packets to CPU.
When all features are enabled in the build, all protocol filters will be in use. When certain features are
not included in the build, then lesser number of protocol filters will be in use. Hence, a greater number
of Layer 2 ACL and Layer 3 ACLs can possibly be created.
The ACL count also depends on the number of ports on which the ACL are applied. For example, for the
build combination with the listed modules:
The ACL maximum is as follows:
• Maximum number of Layer 2 ACLs (MAC ACLs) – 767
• Maximum number of Layer 3 standard ACLs (IP-Standard) – 394
• Maximum number of Layer 3 extended ACLs (IP- Extended) – 788
NOTE: In this example, ACLs are considered to be applied to a port.
When an ACL is created, it becomes active in the control plane. When the ACL is applied on a port, the
ACL gets provisioned in the hardware.
NOTE: The switch does not support ACL counters. Also, the deny packets configured through ACL will not
be displayed in the output of “show interface counters”– discard packet counters.
30.1. deny
To configure that traffic is denied for a particular protocol packet if the conditions defined in the deny
statement are matched, use the command deny in Extended ACL IP Configuration Mode.

VRRP DEFINITIONS
CHAPTER 31 VRRP
VRRP
31. VRRP
The Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is a standard first hop redundancy protocol that specifies
an election protocol that dynamically assigns responsibility for a virtual router (VR) to one of the VRRP
routers on a LAN. The VRRP router controlling the IP address(es) associated with a virtual router is called
the Master and it forwards packets sent to these IP addresses. The election process provides dynamic
failover in the forwarding responsibility, when the Master becomes unavailable. This will allow any
virtual router (Master) IP addresses on the LAN to be used as the default gate for the hosts. The advan-
tage of using VRRP is to provide a redundancy for the default gateways which used by endpoints.
In the VRRP, the Master router is responsible for forwarding the data packets received for VRRP MAC
address. Backup routers listen for advertisement packets from the Master. In the case that Backup
routers do not receive advertisement packets for a certain period of time from the Master, an election
will start between backup routers to elect the new Master for VRRP interface.
31.1. VRRP Definitions

The following table gives definitions for some of the features used in this document.
1105
VRRP DEFINITIONS
CHAPTER 31 VRRP
Definitions
Acronym Definitions
Controls whether a virtual router in Master state will accept packets addressed
Accept Mode to the virtual IP address (VRRP IP address). The default is False. Deployments
that rely on, for example, pinging the address owner's IPvX address may wish to
configure Accept Mode to True.
Controls whether a (starting or restarting) higher-priority Backup router
Preempt Mode preempts a lower-priority Master router.
An IPv4 address is selected from the set of real interface addresses. In IPv4
Primary IP mode, VRRP advertisements are always sent using the primary IPv4 address as
Address the source of the IPv4 packet. For adding a secondary IP address, the use the
secondary one should be explicitly specified.
Priority value to be used by this VRRP router in Master election for this virtual
Priority router. The value of 255 (decimal) is reserved for the router that owns the IP
address associated with the virtual router. The value of 0 (zero) is reserved for
the Master router to indicate it is releasing responsibly for the virtual router.
The range 1-254 (decimal) is available for VRRP routers backing up the virtual
router. Higher values indicate higher priorities. The default value is 100
(decimal).
This is an VRRP packet used by routers to advertise their presence together with
Router various link and Internet parameters either periodically. Router Advertisements
Advertisement contain prefixes that are used for determining whether another address shares
the same link (on-link determination) and/or address configuration, a suggested
hop limit value, etc.
A router running VRRP. It may participate as one or more virtual routers.
VRRP Router
An abstract object managed by VRRP that acts as a default router for hosts on a
Virtual Router shared LAN. It consists of a Virtual Router Identifier and either a set of
(VR) associated IPv4 addresses or a set of associated addresses across a common
LAN. A VRRP Router may back up one or more virtual routers. The scope of each
virtual router is restricted to a single LAN.
The VRRP router that is assuming responsibility of forwarding packets sent to
Virtual Router the IP address(es) associated with the virtual router answering ARP requests.

Link-track and IP-track

In a Link-track, if uplink of the Master fails, the forwarding capability of the router will be affected. In this
case, Link-track feature is used. When an uplink of Master VRRP router goes down, a trigger is given to
decrement Master router's priority, and after that, election process begins. Thus, Backup becomes
Master Router and forwarding capability is carried by Backup router.
1109
TRACK
CHAPTER 31 VRRP
If any one of the uplinks comes up, the Master will send VRRP advertisement with its original priority and
becomes Master. For example, in the current scenario, the number of links tracked can be 2. This means,
that the number of links tracked is 2, and when any two uplinks of the Master go down, then, a trigger
will be sent to the Master. Then, the Master will send the VRRP advertisement with the decreased
priority, which is configured in VRRP instance as decrement priority.
In IP-track, if the tracked destination fails, the forwarding capability will be affected. In case, IP-tracking
feature is used. When tracked IP address of Master VRRP router goes down, a trigger is given to decre-
ment Master router's priority, and after that, election process begins. Thus, Backup becomes Master
Router and forwarding capability is carried by Backup router.
When the uplink on the Master router changes its status to online, the reverse process occurs. The
previous Master router advertises with original Priority, and after election, the previous Master becomes
Master again.

VRRP
CHAPTER 31 VRRP
Parameters
<vrid(1-255)> Integer Enter to set the virtual router’s (VR)’s ID.

accept-mode Enter to configure Accept mode. Enabling Accept mode allows the
Master VRRP device to respond to ping, traceroute, and Telnet/ SSH
packets.
disable Enter to disable Accept mode. This is the default option.
enable Enter to enable Accept mode.
authentication Enter to set authentication-related configuration. VRRP uses the
authentication type associated with the interfaces on which the
virtual router is defined. VRRP text authentication can be configured
to authenticate VRRP packets. An advertisement packet will get
discarded if the authentication key in the packet does not match the
locally configured value.
none Enter for no authentication.
text Enter to set clear text authentication. A simple text password can be
used.
<password> Enter a value for authentication password used to validate the
incoming VRRP packets.
ip Enter to specify the IP address of a virtual router (VR). A VR can be
associated with more than one IP address. When a router becomes
the Master for an instance, it replies to the ARP request(s) for all
associated with the VRRP instance IP addresses.
<ip_addr> Enter a value for the IP address. The format is A.B.C.D
secondary Enter to specify secondary IP Address.
A.B.C.D Enter a value for the IP address. The format is A.B.C.D
<ip_addr>
AAAA::BBBB Enter a value for IPv6 address.

<ipv6_addr>
preempt Enter to specify which router becomes the master router and enable
Preempt mode. Preemption of a backup VRRP device acting as a
master device is allowed when another backup device has a higher
priority. By default, preemption is enabled for VRRP. In VRRP,
preemption allows a backup device with the highest priority to
become the master device when the master device goes offline.
1113
VRRP
CHAPTER 31 VRRP
delay Enter to specify the number of seconds the router delays before
issuing an advertisement claiming virtual IP address ownership to be
the master router. By default preempt is Enabled and the delay
value is 0 seconds (no delay).
minimum Enter to specify the minimum number of seconds.
<value (0-30> Integer Enter a value for minimum number of seconds the router delays
before issuing an advertisement claiming virtual IP address
ownership to be the master router.
priority Enter to establish a priority for a VR. A VR can be configured with a
priority so that the router with higher priority will become the
Master for that instance.
<priority Integer Enter a value for the priority for a VR. Priority can be configured
(1-254)> from 1 to 254, with 1 being the lowest priority. A priority of 255 is
used for the router that owns the associated IP address associated
with the virtual router. The default is 110.
timer / timers Enter to configure the interval between successive advertisements
by the Master Router. The VRRP Master router sends a router
advertisement at regular intervals to convey to the backup routers
that the Master is alive. By default, the advertisement interval value
is 1 second.
advertise Enter to set the advertisement timer.
msec Enter to specify that the unit is changed to milli-seconds.
<interval(1-25 Integer Enter a value for the he interval between successive advertisements
5secs)/(10-255 by the Master Router acceptable range for version 2 is (1-255
000msecs)> secs)/(100-255000 msecs) / acceptable range for version 2-3 and
version 3 is (1-40 secs)/(10-40950 msecs). For example, timer 5 will
configure the advertisement timer interval as 5 seconds.
track Enter to configure tracking of the priority for a VR based on an
interface.
<group-index Integer Enter a value for group Index Value.
(1-429496729)>
decrement Enter to configure the decrement.

To set the VRRP IP tracking feature, use the command ip-tracking in VRRP Configuration Mode. The VRRP
object tracking describes how to track an IP object using a VRRPv3 group. Each VRRP group can track
multiple objects that may affect the priority of the VRRP device. VRRP is notified of any changes to a spec-
ified object to be tracked. VRRP increments (or decrements) the priority of the virtual device based on
the state of the object being tracked. The no form of the disables the IP tracking configuration.

CHAPTER 32 ALARMS
Alarms
32. Alarms
The software monitors the conditions of all its ports, per switch, for its chassis, or if they are Alarms secu-
rity, services, and protocol -related.
If a condition which is present on the switch or a port does not match predetermined parameters, an
alarm or a system message appear. By default, the switch software sends the system messages to a
syslog facility. The switch can be configured to send Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps
to an SNMP server.
All alarms which are related to power supply failure; CPU/RAM/Flash/Temperature/Line Module
mismatch or a chassis type are referred as global alarms. The switch can also monitor the status of the
Ethernet ports and generate alarm messages which are categorized as Port Status Monitoring Alarms.
There are eight different categories of alarms as depicted in the below table. GPS and cell alarms are not
currently defined as the base feature is not available yet.
No. & Type ID Range Events
1 - Admin 1000 - 1999 Administrative aspect of the device, such as license key problems, etc.
2 - Chassis 2000 - 2999 Alarms related to power supply failure; CPU / RAM / Flash /
Temperature / Line Module mismatch.
3 - Switch 3000 - 3999 Port link up/down; SFP not compatible, etc.
4 - Security 4000 - 4999 Invalid login; SNMP authentication failure
5 - Services 5000 - 5999 Alarms related to software download failure/syslog buffer overflow/
login failures
6 - Protocol 6000 - 6999 All protocol-related alarms like STP root change, VRRP role change, etc
7 - Cell Not defined -

8 - GPS Not defined -

1124
EXAMPLE
CHAPTER 32 ALARMS
32.1. Example
For interface-specific alarms such as link up/down, the alarm ID is the sum of the base alarm ID plus the
port no. For example, the port 11 link up / down alarm is denoted by ID 3011 (i.e. 3000 +11).

NOTE: The most essential alarms are to be installed during the first phase; later, we will increase the
number of alarms. Request QA to help on identifying the alarms.
Relay and LED for Alarms

By default, all critical severity alarms are enabled with a relay and red LED indication. The LED and relay
are triggered during the first occurrence of fault and cleared during the next occurrence of fault clear-
ance. Some examples are as follows.

ADD UDP-HOST
CHAPTER 33 SERIAL
messages: a request (issued by the client) and a response (issued by the server).
Each MODBUS server or client are uniquely identified by a slave ID. The MODBUS server slave IDs are
bound to an interface, whereas MODBUS client slave IDs is bound to a profile. This is because a MODBUS
server can support multiple interface to be mapped to same profile. Each interface can be mapped to a
set of slave IDs.
Each profile can support 247 slave IDs and its range is between 1 - 247.

To enable or disable hardware and software flow control, use the flow-control command in Serial Inter-
face Configuration Mode. Flow control provides extra signaling to inform the transmitter that it should
stop (pause) or start (resume) the transmission.
There is a hardware and software flow control.
For RS-232, the hardware method uses the RTS / CTS outputs. If the transmitter is ready to send data,
then it sets the signal on the RTS line. If the receiver is ready to receive data, it sets the signal on the CTS
line. If one of the signals is not set, no data transfer will occur.
1156

CHAPTER 33 SERIAL
The software method uses the Xon and Xoff characters (in the ASCII characters set: Xon = 17, Xoff = 19)
which are transmitted using the same TXD / RXD communication lines as the main data instead of the
pins. If the data cannot be received, the receiver transmits the Xoff symbol. To resume data transmission,
the Xon symbol is sent.

33.41. response-timeout
To define the response time of a serial port, use the response-timeout command in Role Mode
(Modbus).
Response time is the time to wait for a response from a serial port.
Same as for slave IDs, response time configuration is bound to:
• an interface for MODBUS servers, or
• a profile for MODBUS clients

33.49. tcp buffering

To buffer data, use the tcp buffering command in Direction Mode (Raw) and Profile Mode (Preemp-
tive-Raw). TCP buffering is similar to TCP_NODELAY. If this feature is set, it follows Nagle algorithm, and
data is buffered until there is a sufficient amount to be send out, thereby avoiding frequent sending of
small packets, which results in poor utilization of the network. If this feature is not set, the segments are
always sent as soon as possible, even if there is only a small amount of data.

Verification
Once the feature is enabled on any given serial profile, the serial data received on the corresponding
serial port shall be encapsulated as a TCP packet with the specific L2, L3 and L4 headers as specified in
the configuration. This encapsulated traffic would be sent on the configured destination port. The Wire-
shark capture of the traffic received from the destination port should show a valid TCP transaction.

GLOSSARY ENTRIES
802.1D
IEEE 802.1D is the Ethernet MAC bridges standard which includes Bridging, Spanning Tree and
others. It is standardized by the IEEE 802.1 working group. It includes details specific to linking many
of the other 802 projects including the widely deployed 802.3 (Ethernet), 802.11 (Wireless LAN)
and 802.16 (WiMax) standards.
Bridges using virtual LANs (VLANs) have never been part of 802.1D, but were instead specified in
separate standard, 802.1Q originally published in 1998.
By 2014, all the functionality defined by IEEE 802.1D has been incorporated into either IEEE 802.1Q
(Bridges and Bridged Networks) or IEEE 802.1AC (MAC Service Definition).
802.1Q
IEEE 802.1Q, often referred to as DOT1Q or 1Q, is the networking standard that supports virtual
LANs (VLANs) on an IEEE 802.3 Ethernet network. It is the most widely used encapsulation method
for VLAN tagging.
802.1X
IEEE 802.1X is an IEEE Standard for port-based Network Access Control (PNAC). 802.1X authentica-
tion requires a client, an authenticator, and an authentication server. The client is a device that
wants to connect to the network.
802.1W
IEEE 802.1W feature provides rapid traffic reconvergence for point-to-point links within a few milli-
seconds (0-500 milliseconds), following the failure of bridge or bridge point. This reconvergence
occurs more rapidly than the reconvergence provided by the 802.1F spanning Tree Protocol (STP)
or by RSTP.
AAA
Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) functionalities. AAA are provided by TACACS+.
TACACS+ is used because it provides independently separate and modular authentication, authori-
zation, and accounting (AAA) facilities achieved by a single access control server (the TACACS+
daemon).
AARP
AppleTalk Address Resolution Protocol (AARP). The AARP maps computers' physical hardware
addresses to their temporarily assigned AppleTalk network addresses. AARP is functionally equiva-
lent to Address Resolution Protocol (ARP). The AARP table permits management of the address
mapping table on the managed device. This protocol allows Apple computers' AppleTalk hosts to
generate their own network addresses
ABR
Area Border Router (ABR)
ACK
ACK stands for acknowledgment. ACK is one of the TCP flags.
i
TCP flags are various types of flag bits present in the TCP header. Each of them has its own signifi-
cance. They initiate connections, carry data, and tear down connections. The commonly used TCP
flags are SYN, ACK, RST, FIN, URG, PSH.
• SYN (synchronize): Packets that are used to initiate a connection.
• ACK (acknowledgment): Packets that are used to confirm that the data packets have been received,
also used to confirm the initiation request and tear down requests.
• RST (reset): Signify the connection is down or maybe the service is not accepting the requests.
• FIN (finish): Indicate that the connection is being torn down. Both the sender and receiver send the
FIN packets to gracefully terminate the connection.
• PSH (push): Indicate that the incoming data should be passed on directly to the application instead
of getting buffered.
• URG (urgent): Indicate that the data that the packet is carrying should be processed immediately
by the TCP stack
ACL
An access-control list (ACL) is a list of permissions associated with a system resource (object). An
ACL specifies which users or system processes are granted access to objects, as well as what oper-
ations are allowed on given objects. Each entry in a typical ACL specifies a subject and an operation.
For instance, if a file object has an ACL that contains (Admin: read, write; guest 1: read), this would
give Admin permission to read and write the file, and only give guest 1 permission to read it.
AES
The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a symmetric-key block cipher algorithm and U.S.
government standard for secure and classified data encryption and decryption.
AH
The Authentication Header (AH) protocol provides data origin authentication, data integrity, and
replay protection. However, AH does not provide data confidentiality, which means that all of your
data is sent in the clear.
AH ensures data integrity with the checksum that a message authentication code, like MD5, gener-
ates. To ensure data origin authentication, AH includes a secret shared key in the algorithm that it
uses for authentication. To ensure replay protection, AH uses a sequence number field within the
AH header. It is worth noting here, that these three distinct functions are often lumped together
and referred to as authentication. In the simplest terms, AH ensures that your data has not been
tampered with en route to its final destination.
Although AH authenticates as much of the IP datagram as possible, the values of certain fields in
the IP header cannot be predicted by the receiver. AH does not protect these fields, known as
mutable fields. However, AH always protects the payload of the IP packet.
The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) formally defines AH in Request for Comment (RFC) 4302,
IP Authentication Header.
AO
Authentication Option (AO). TCP-AO specifies the use of stronger Message Authentication Codes
(MACs), protects against replays even for long-lived TCP connections, and provides more details on
the association of security with TCP connections than TCP MD5. TCP-AO is compatible with either a
static Master Key Tuple (MKT) configuration or an external, out-of-band MKT management mech-
anism; in either case, TCP-AO also protects connections when using the same MKT across repeated
ii
instances of a connection, using traffic keys derived from the MKT, and coordinates MKT changes
between endpoints.
ARAP
Apple Remote Access Protocol (ARAP); the Apple Remote Access Protocol (ARAP) sends traffic
based on the AppleTalk protocol across PPP links and ISDN switched-circuit networks. ARAP is still
pervasive in the Apple market, although the company is attempting to transition into an
Apple-specific TCP stack for use over a PPP link.
ARP
ARP (Address Resolution Protocol). The ARP is a communication protocol used for discovering the
link layer address, such as a MAC address, associated with a given Internet layer address, typically
an IPv4 address.
AS
Autonomous System (AS)
ASBR
Autonomous Border System Router (ASBR)
Asdot
Asdot format is used when the 4-byte ASN are represented by their decimal value e.g. 100.1.
BGP uses AS numbers as a fundamental part of its routing process. Because conventional 2-byte
public AS numbers were becoming exhausted, the IANA increased the AS numbers by introducing
a 4-byte AS numbers. The Asdot notation to represent these AS numbers is as follows.
For values between 0 and 65535, Asdot notation is simply the decimal value of the AS number.
These values take up to 16 bits to express in binary. Examples include:
• 5
• 25
• 196
• 65000
• 65535
For values above 65536, Asdot notation splits the 32 bit binary value into two 16 bit values. These
values are represented as two decimal numbers separated by a dot. Examples include:
• 0.65536
• 15.418
• 65535.8520
• 65535.65535
You will notice that for values of up to 65535, the Asdot is the same as the Asplain notation, and for
values of 65536 and above, the Asdot is the same as the Asdot+ notation.
ASN
Autonomous System Number (ASN)
BDR
BDR stands for Backup Designated Router.
iii
BFD
Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is a super fast protocol that is able to detect link failures
within milliseconds or even microseconds. BFD runs independent from any other (routing) proto-
cols. Once it’s up and running, you can configure protocols like OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, HSRP, MPLS LDP
etc. to use BFD for link failure detection instead of their own mechanisms. When the link fails, BFD

BGP
BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is an Inter AS (Autonomous Systems) Routing Protocol that
manages the distribution of Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) across AS. It is used to
build an AS connectivity graph that is used to prune routing loops and enforce policies at AS level
BGP
BGP-4 is an extension of BGP-3 (BGP version 3),and it is the current version of BGP. BGP4 was
published as RFC 4271 in 2006. Its major enhancement is the support for Classless Inter-Domain
Routing (CIDR) and use of route aggregation to decrease the size of routing tables. The new RFC
allows BGP4 to carry a wide range of IPv4 and IPv6 "address families".
BIDIR-PIM
Bi-directional Sparse Mode (PIM-SM); Derived from PIM-SM, BIDIR-PIM builds and maintains a bidi-
rectional RPT, which is rooted at the RP and connects the multicast sources and the receivers. Along
the bidirectional RPT, the multicast sources send multicast data to the RP, and the RP forwards the
data to the receivers. Each router along the bidirectional RPT needs to maintain only one (*, G)
entry, saving system resources.
Another difference between PIM sparse mode and PIM bidirectional mode is that with sparse mode
traffic only flows down the shared tree. Using PIM bidirectional mode, traffic will flow up and down
the shared tree. When the multicast packets arrive at the RP, they will be forwarded down the
shared tree (if there are receivers) or dropped (when we don’t have receivers).
BMS
Best Master Clock (BMS); The ordinary clock executes the port state machine and BMC (Best
Master Clock) algorithm to select the PTP port state.
BOOTP
The Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) is a computer networking protocol used in Internet Protocol
networks to automatically assign an IP address to network devices from a configuration server. The
BOOTP was originally defined in RFC 951.
BPDU
Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDUs) are frames that contain information about the spanning tree
protocol (STP). A switch sends BPDUs using a unique source MAC address from its origin port to a
multicast address.
There are two kinds of BPDUs for 802.1D Spanning Tree:
• Configuration BPDU, sent by root bridges to provide information to all switches.
• TCN (Topology Change Notification), sent by bridges towards the root bridge to notify changes in
the topology, such as port up or port down.
BPS

iv
BR
Border Router (BR)
BSD
Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD)
BSR
The bootstrap router (BSR) ensures that all routers in the PIM domain have the same RP cache as
the BSR. You can configure the BSR to help you select an RP set from BSR candidate RPs. The func-
tion of the BSR is to broadcast the RP set to all routers in the domain. You select one or more candi-
date BSRs to manage the RPs in the domain. Only one candidate BSR is elected as the BSR for the
domain.
This figure shows the BSR mechanism. Router A, the software-elected BSR, sends BSR messages out
all enabled interfaces (shown by the solid lines in the figure). The messages, which contain the RP
set, are flooded hop by hop to all routers in the network. Routers B and C are candidate RPs that
send their candidate-RP advertisements directly to the elected BSR (shown by the dashed lines in
the figure).
The elected BSR receives candidate-RP messages from all the candidate RPs in the domain. The
bootstrap message sent by the BSR includes information about all of the candidate RPs. Each router
uses a common algorithm to select the same RP address for a given multicast group.
CA

CBS
Committed burst size (CBS). During periods of average traffic rates below the Committed informa-
tion rate (CIR), any unused bandwidth capacity accumulates up to a maximum amount defined by
the CBS. Short periods of bursting traffic (back-to-back traffic at averages rates that exceed the CIR)
are also categorized as green provided that unused bandwidth capacity is available.
v
CEP
Customer Edge Port (CEP). The Customer Edge Port (CEP) and each Provider Edge Port are treated
as separate Bridge Ports by the spanning tree protocol. If the C-VLAN component connects to the
S-VLAN component with a single Provider Edge Port, and the associated service instance supports
no more than two customer interfaces, then all frames (including Spanning Tree BPDUs) addressed
to the Bridge Group Address may be relayed between the two Ports of the C-VLAN component
without modification. Otherwise, the Spanning Tree Protocol Entity shall execute the Rapid Span-
ning Tree Protocol (RSTP, Clause 17 of IEEE Std 802.1D), as modified by the provisions of this
subclause.

MS-CHAP
CHAP stands for Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol. MS-CHAP is the Microsoft version
of the Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol, CHAP. The protocol exists in two versions,
MS-CHAPv1 (defined in RFC 2433) and MS-CHAPv2 (defined in RFC 2759). MS-CHAPv2 provides
mutual authentication between peers by piggybacking a peer challenge on the Response packet
and an authenticator response on the Success packet.

CLKIWF is short for Clock InterWorking Function.
CoS
Output queue scheduling defines the class-of-service (CoS) properties of output queues. Based on
certain types of traffic are preferred. The level of service is determined by the egress port queue to
which the traffic is assigned. When traffic is queued for transmission, the rate at which it is serviced
depends on how the queue is configured and possibly the amount of traffic present in other queues
for that port.
Some traffic is classified for service (i.e., packet marking) before it arrives at the switch. If you
decide to use these classifications, you can map this traffic to egress queues by setting the CoS in
the Queue table.

LANs (VLANs) on an IEEE 802.3 Ethernet network. It is the most widely used encapsulation method
for VLAN tagging.
Dot1x
Dot1x Authentication is enabled when dot1x system-auth-control is enabled, and aaa authentica-
tion dot1x default is local. If you enable authentication on a port by using the default setting of
dot1x port-control, which is force-authorized, it disables 802.1X authentication and causes the port
to transition to the authorized state without any authentication exchange required. The port trans-
mits and receives normal traffic without 802.1X-based authentication of the client
DR

EAP
Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) is an authentication framework frequently used in
network and Internet connections. EAP is usually tunnelled over RADIUS between the Authenti-
cator and the Authentication Server. 802.1x uses EAP.
EAP is an authentication framework, not a specific authentication mechanism. Commonly used
modern methods capable of operating in wireless networks include EAP-TLS, EAP-SIM, EAP-AKA,
LEAP and EAP-TTLS. Requirements for EAP methods used in wireless LAN authentication are

The Excess Burst size (EBS) specifies how much data above the committed burst size (CBS) a user
can transmit. The EBS is the size up to which the traffic is allowed to burst without being discarded.
EBS allows for moderate periods of bursting traffic that exceeds both the committed information
rate (CIR) and the committed burst size (CBS).
ECN
Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN)
EGP
Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP) is a defunct routing protocol used in autonomous systems to
exchange data between surrounding gateway sites. Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) supplanted
EGP, widely utilized by research institutes, universities, government agencies, and commercial
x
companies (BGP). EGP is built on poll instructions to request update answers and periodic message
exchange polling for neighbor reachability.
EIGRP
Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) is a network protocol that enables routers to
exchange information more efficiently than earlier network protocols, such as Interior Gateway
Routing Protocol (IGRP) or Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), and provides intelligent traffic sharing.
EIR
The excess information rate (EIR) specifies the rate above the CIR (committed information rate) at
which traffic is allowed into the network and that may get delivered if the network is not congested.
The EIR has an additional parameter associated with it called the excess burst size (EBS). The EBS is
the size up to which the traffic is allowed to burst without being discarded.
ESD
ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) is the sudden flow of electricity between two electrically charged
objects caused by contact, an electrical short or dielectric breakdown. A buildup of static electricity
can be caused by tribocharging or by electrostatic induction. The ESD occurs when differ-
ently-charged objects are brought close together or when the dielectric between them breaks
down, often creating a visible spark.
EXEC
exec: Protocol
Commands that are invoked using the exec: protocol must be executable as standalone commands.
Commands that are built into a command interpreter or other program cannot be executed
directly, but must be executed (if possible) within the context of the application that provides them.
For example, the following seed URL would not work on Microsoft Windows systems because the
dir command is built into the Windows command interpreter (cmd.exe):
exec: dir e:\data
To use the exec protocol with commands that are built into the Windows command interpreter,
you must do something as the following:
exec: cmd /c dir 'e:\data'
ESP
Encapsulation Security Protocol (ESP); the ESP protocol provides data confidentiality, and also
optionally provides data origin authentication, data integrity checking, and replay protection.
The difference between ESP and the Authentication Header (AH) protocol is that ESP provides
encryption, while both protocols provide authentication, integrity checking, and replay protection.
With ESP, both communicating systems use a shared key for encrypting and decrypting the data
they exchange.
EVB
Edge Virtual Bridge (EVB) is an IEEE standard that involves the interaction between virtual switching
environments in a hypervisor and the first layer of the physical switching infrastructure. The EVB
enhancements are following 2 different paths – 802.1qbg and 802.1qbh.

computer files from a server to a client on a computer network. FTP is built on a client–server model
architecture using separate control and data connections between the client and the server.[1] FTP
users may authenticate themselves with a clear-text sign-in protocol, normally in the form of a
username and password, but can connect anonymously if the server is configured to allow it. For
secure transmission that protects the username and password, and encrypts the content, FTP is
often secured with SSL/TLS (FTPS) or replaced with SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP).
GARP
GARP (Generic Attribute Registration Protocol) is a local area network (LAN) protocol that defines
procedures by which end stations and switches can register and deregister attributes, such as
network identifiers or addresses, with each other. Every end station and switch thus has a record,
or list, of all the other end stations and switches that can be reached at any given time.
When an attribute for an end station or switch is registered or deregistered according to GARP, the
set of reachable end stations and switches, called participants, is modified according to specific
rules. The defined set of participants at any given time, along with their attributes, is a subset of the
network topology called the reachability tree. Data frames are propagated only to registered end
stations. This prevents attempts to send data to end stations that are not reachable.
GGP
Gateway-to-Gateway Protocol (GGP) is an obsolete protocol defined for routing datagrams
between Internet gateways. It was first outlined in 1982. The GGP was designed as an IP datagram

packets over a network. In GRE, an IP datagram is tunnelled (encapsulated) within another IP data-
xii
gram.One great advantage of GRE is that it allows routing of IP packets between private IPv4
networks which are separated over public IPv4 Internet. GRE also supports encapsulating IPv4
broadcast and multicast traffic.
GVRP
GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol or Generic VLAN Registration Protocol) is a protocol that
facilitates control of virtual local area networks (VLANs) within a larger network. GVRP conforms to

adjacent routers on IPv4 networks to establish multicast group memberships. IGMP is an integral
part of IP multicast and allows the network to direct multicast transmissions only to hosts that have
requested them.
IGP
Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) is a type of routing protocol used for exchanging routing table infor-
mation between gateways (commonly routers) within an autonomous system (for example, a
system of corporate local area networks). This routing information can then be used to route
network-layer protocols like IP.
IGRP
Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) is a proprietary distance vector routing protocol that
manages the flow of routing information within connected routers in the host network or autono-
mous system. The protocol ensures that every router has routing tables updated with the best
available path. IGRP also avoids routing loops by updating itself with the changes occurring over the
network and by error management.
IGS
The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Snooping (IGS) is designed to prevent hosts on a
local network from receiving traffic for a multicast group they have not explicitly joined. It provides
switches with a mechanism to prune multicast traffic from links that do not contain a multicast
listener (an IGMP client). Essentially, IGS is a layer 2 optimization for the Layer 3 IGMP.

nications at the IP layer. The most common current use of IPSec is to provide a Virtual Private
Network (VPN), either between two locations (gateway-to-gateway) or between a remote user and
an enterprise network (host-to-gateway); it can also provide end-to-end, or host-to-host, security.

decimal digits. Anexample of IPv6 address is as follows
3001:0da8:75a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334
there are different ypes of IPv6 addresses:
• Unicast addresses—it identifies a unique node on a network and usually refers to a single sender
or a single receiver.
• Multicast addresses—it represents a group of IP devices and can only be used as the destination of
a datagram.
• Anycast addresses—it is assigned to a set of interfaces that typically belong to different nodes.
IRDP
ICMP Router Discovery Protocol (IRDP) allows hosts to locate routers that can be used as a gateway
to reach IP-based devices on other networks. When the device running IRDP operates as a router,

MD5
Message Digest Algorithm 5 (MD5) is a cryptographic hash algorithm that can be used to create a
128-bit string value from an arbitrary length string.
A hash function provides encryption using an algorithm and no key. A variable-length plaintext is
“hashed” into a (typically) fixed-length hash value (often called a “message digest” or simply a
“hash”). Hash functions are primarily used to provide integrity; if the hash of a plaintext changes,
the plaintext itself has changed.
Common older hash functions include Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1), which creates a 160-bit
hash and Message Digest 5 (MD5), which creates a 128-bit hash.
Although there has been insecurities identified with MD5, it is still widely used, and its most
common use is to verify the integrity of files.

information such as PoE management and VLAN assignments. This capability was added as an
enhancement known as Media Endpoint Discovery or MED, resulting in the enhanced protocol
LLDP-MED.The MED enhancement has been standardized by the Telecommunications Industry
Association in standard number ANSI/TIA-1057.

management protocol (SNMP) to describe the particular device being monitored.
MIB Object IDentifier (OID), as known as a MIB object identifier in the SNMP, is a number assigned
to devices in a network for identification purposes. OID numbering is hierarchical. Using the IETF
notation of digits and dots, resembling very long IP addresses, various registries such as ANSI assign
high-level numbers to vendors and organizations. They, in turn, append digits to the number to
identify individual devices or software processes.
MIC

MIM
Media redundancy Interconnection Manager (MIM) is a node in a MRP Interconnect ring which acts
a redundancy manager.
MLDS
Multicast Listener Discovery Snooping (MLDS) constrains the flooding of IPv6 multicast traffic on
VLANs. When MLDS is enabled on a VLAN, adevice examines MLD messages between hosts and
multicast routers and learns which hosts are interested in receiving traffic for a multicast group. On
the basis of what it learns, the device then forwards multicast traffic only to those interfaces in the
VLAN that are connected to interested receivers instead of flooding the traffic to all interfaces.
MKT
Master Key Tuple (MKT). TCP-AO uses cryptographic algorithms to convert MKTs, which can be
shared across connections, into unique traffic keys for each connection.

MPLS
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a routing technique in telecommunications networks that
directs data from one node to the next based on short path labels rather than long network
addresses, thus avoiding complex lookups in a routing table and speeding traffic flows. The labels
identify virtual links (paths) between distant nodes rather than endpoints. MPLS can encapsulate
packets of various network protocols, hence the "multiprotocol" reference on its name.

It is the standard based protocol defined with IEEE 802.1s. Unlike other spanning tree protocols, in
which all the spanning tree instances are independent, MST establishes and maintains IST, CIST,
and CST spanning trees.
MSTI
Multiple spanning trees, called MSTIs; inside an MST region, multiple spanning trees, called MSTIs,
are calculated. Among these MSTIs, MSTI 0 is the IST.
MSTP
Multiple Spanning-Tree Protocol
MTU
Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU)
MVLAN
Multicast VLANs (MVLAN)
NAP
Network Access Protection (NAP)
NAPT
Network address port translation (NAPT) is a variation of the traditional NAT. NAPT extends the
notion of translation one step further by also translating transport identifiers (e.g., TCP and UDP
port numbers, ICMP query identifiers).
NAS
The Network Access Server (NAS) is the front line of authentication – it's the first server that fields
network authentication requests before they pass through to the RADIUS. The NAS Identifier
(NAS-ID) is a feature that allows the RADIUS server to confirm information about the sender of the
authentication request.
NAT
Network address translation (NAT) is a method of mapping an IP address space into another by
modifying network address information in the IP header of packets while they are in transit across
a traffic routing device.
NBMA
NBMA (Non Broadcast Multi Access)
NBNS
NetBIOS Name Server where NetBIOS stands for Network Basic Input / Output System.
NC

human speech over packetized communications networks. It was an early example of Voice over
Internet Protocol technology.
NVRAM
Non-volatile random-access memory (NVRAM) is random-access memory that retains data without
applied power. This is in contrast to dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) and static
random-access memory (SRAM), which both maintain data only for as long as power is applied, or
such forms of memory as magnetic tape, which cannot be randomly accessed but which retains
data indefinitely without electric power.
OID
Object IDentifier
ORF
Outbound Route Filter (ORF); the BGP Prefix-Based ORF feature uses BGP ORF send and receive
capabilities for minimizing the number of BGP updates that are sent between BGP peers. Config-
uring this feature can help reduce the amount of system resources required for generating and
processing routing updates by filtering out unwanted routing updates at the source.
OSPF
Open Shortest Path First routing protocol
xx
OUI
organization unique identifiers (OUI)s. LLDP enables defining optional TLV units by using organiza-
tion unique identifiers (OUIs) or organizationally-specific TLVs. An OUI identifies the category for a
TLV unit depending on whether the OUI follows the IEEE 802.1 or IEEE 802.3 standard.
P2P
Peer-to-peer (P2P) transparent clock for Precision Time Protocol (PTP).
PAE
Port Access Entity (PAE). 802.1X-2001 defines two logical port entities for an authenticated
port—the "controlled port" and the "uncontrolled port". The controlled port is manipulated by the
802.1X PAE (Port Access Entity) to allow (in the authorized state) or prevent (in the unauthorized
state) network traffic ingress and egress to/from the controlled port. The uncontrolled port is used
by the 802.1X PAE to transmit and receive EAPOL frames.
PAP
Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) is a password-based authentication protocol used by Point
to Point Protocol (PPP) to validate users. PAP stops working after establishing the authentication;
thus, it can lead to attacks on the network.
PBB
Provider backbone bridging (PBB) extends Layer 2 Ethernet switching to provide enhanced scal-
ability, quality-of-service (QoS) features, and carrier-class reliability.
PC
Personal Computer
PCB
Provider Core Bridge (PCB) or S-VLAN Bridge; PCB integrates only one S-VLAN component. It is
capable of providing single service on a port.
PDU
A Protocol Data Unit (PDU) is a single unit of information transmitted among peer entities of a
computer network. A PDU is composed of protocol-specific control information and user data.
P/E
Program/Erase (P/E). Writing a byte to flash memory involves two steps: Program and Erase (P/E).
P/E cycles can serve as a criterion for quantifying the endurance of a flash storage device.
PEB
Provider Edge Bridge (PEB); Provider Edge Bridge integrates one S-VLAN component with zero or
many C-VLAN components as well as integrates each C-VLAN (up to 4094 C-VLANs) individually with
a different S-VLAN (up to 4094 S-VLANs).
PEM
PEM (originally “Privacy Enhanced Mail”) is the most common format for X.509 certificates, CSRs,
and cryptographic keys. A PEM file is a text file containing one or more items in Base64 ASCII
encoding, each with plain-text headers and footers (e.g. -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- and -----END
CERTIFICATE-----). A single PEM file could contain an end-entity certificate, a private key, or multiple
certificates forming a complete chain of trust. Most certificate files downloaded from SSL.com will
be in PEM format
xxi
PEP
Provider Edge Port (PEP). The Customer Edge Port and each Provider Edge Port are treated as sepa-
rate Bridge Ports by the spanning tree protocol. If the C-VLAN component connects to the S-VLAN
component with a single Provider Edge Port, and the associated service instance supports no more
than two customer interfaces, then all frames (including Spanning Tree BPDUs) addressed to the
Bridge Group Address may be relayed between the two Ports of the C-VLAN component without
modification. Otherwise, the Spanning Tree Protocol Entity shall execute the Rapid Spanning Tree
Protocol (RSTP, Clause 17 of IEEE Std 802.1D), as modified by the provisions of this subclause.
PFS
Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) means that a piece of an encryption system automatically and
frequently changes the keys it uses to encrypt and decrypt information, such that if the latest key
is compromised, it exposes only a small portion of the user’s sensitive data.
If PFS is specified in the IPSec policy, a new Diffie-Hellman exchange is performed with each quick
mode, providing keying material that has greater entropy (key material life) and thereby greater
resistance to cryptographic attacks. Each Diffie-Hellman exchange requires large exponentiations,
thereby increasing CPU use and exacting a performance cost.
PHB
PHB (Per Hop Behavior) is a term used in differentiated services (DiffServ) or multiprotocol label
switching (MPLS). It defines the policy and priority applied to a packet when traversing a hop (such
as a router) in a DiffServ network.
PHY
A PHY, an abbreviation for "physical layer", is an electronic circuit, usually implemented as an inte-
grated circuit, required to implement physical layer functions of the OSI model in a network inter-
face controller. A PHY connects a link layer device (often called MAC as an acronym for medium
access control) to a physical medium such as an optical fiber or copper cable. A PHY device typically
includes both physical coding sublayer (PCS) and physical medium dependent (PMD) layer function-
ality. PHY may also be used as a suffix to form a short name referencing a specific physical layer
protocol, for example M-PHY.
PIM
Protocol-Independent Multicast (PIM) is a family of multicast routing protocols for Internet
Protocol (IP) networks that provide one-to-many and many-to-many distribution of data over a
LAN, WAN or the Internet. It is termed protocol-independent because PIM does not include its own
topology discovery mechanism, but instead uses routing information supplied by other routing
protocols. PIM is not dependent on a specific unicast routing protocol; it can make use of any
unicast routing protocol in use on the network. PIM does not build its own routing tables. PIM uses
the unicast routing table for reverse-path forwarding.
There are four variants of PIM:
• PIM Sparse Mode (PIM-SM) explicitly builds unidirectional shared trees rooted at a rendezvous
point (RP) per group, and optionally creates shortest-path trees per source. PIM-SM generally
scales fairly well for wide-area usage.
• PIM Dense Mode (PIM-DM) uses dense multicast routing. It implicitly builds shortest-path trees by
flooding multicast traffic domain wide, and then pruning back branches of the tree where no
receivers are present. PIM-DM is straightforward to implement but generally has poor scaling prop-
xxii
erties. The first multicast routing protocol, DVMRP used dense-mode multicast routing. See the
PIM Internet Standard RFC 3973.
• Bidirectional PIM (Bidir-PIM) explicitly builds shared bi-directional trees. It never builds a shortest
path tree, so may have longer end-to-end delays than PIM-SM, but scales well because it needs no
source-specific state. See Bidirectional PIM Internet Standard RFC 5015, 70–73 .
• PIM Source-Specific Multicast (PIM-SSM) builds trees that are rooted in just one source, offering a
more secure and scalable model for a limited number of applications (mostly broadcasting of
content). In SSM, an IP datagram is transmitted by a source S to an SSM destination address G, and
receivers can receive this datagram by subscribing to channel (S,G). See informational RFC 3569
Bidirectional (Bidir) PIM
Bidirectional PIM (Bidir-PIM) explicitly builds shared bi-directional trees. It never builds a shortest
path tree, so may have longer end-to-end delays than PIM-SM, but scales well because it needs no
source-specific state. See Bidirectional PIM Internet Standard RFC 5015, 70–73.
PIM-DM
Protocol-Independent Multicast Dense Mode PIM-DM) uses dense multicast routing. It implicitly
builds shortest-path trees by flooding multicast traffic domain wide, and then pruning back
branches of the tree where no receivers are present. PIM-DM is straightforward to implement but
generally has poor scaling properties.
PIM-SM
Protocol-Independent Multicast Sparse Mode (PIM-SM) explicitly builds unidirectional shared trees
rooted at a rendezvous point (RP) per group, and optionally creates shortest-path trees per source.
PIM-SM generally scales fairly well for wide-area usage.

ticator, and an authentication server. The client is a device that wants to connect to the network.
PNP
Provider Network Ports (PNP)
xxiii
PoE
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is distributing power over an Ethernet network. Because the power and
signal are on the same cable, PoE enables remote network devices such as ceiling-mounted access
points, surveillance cameras and LED lighting to be installed far away from AC power sources.
PPP
• Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP); The user or machine sends a request to a Network Access Server
(NAS) to gain access to a particular network resource using access credentials. The credentials are
passed to the NAS device via the data link layer (L2) protocol—for example, Point-to-Point Protocol
(PPP) in the case of many dial up or DSL providers or posted in an HTTPS secure web form.
• Protocol Packet Processing (PPP)
PPVID
Port and Protocol VLAN ID (PPVID)
PRP
Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) is a network protocol standard for Ethernet that provides
seamless failover against failure of any network component. This redundancy is invisible to the
application.PRP nodes have two ports and are attached to two separated networks of similar
topology. This is in contrast to the companion standard HSR (IEC 62439-3 Clause 5), with which PRP
shares the operating principle.
PS
Power Supply
PTP

PVID
Port VLAN ID (PVID)
PVLAN

MPLS network. See RFC 4448 for details.
Q-in-Q
802.1Q tunneling (Q-in-Q) is a technique often used by Ethernet providers as a layer 2 VPN for
customers. During 802.1Q (or dot1q) tunneling, the provider will put an 802.1Q tag on all the
frames that it receives from a customer with a unique VLAN tag. By using a different VLAN tag for
each customer we can separate the traffic from different customers and also transparently transfer
it throughout the service provider network.
xxiv
QoS
Quality of Service (QoS) refers to traffic prioritization and resource reservation control mechanisms
rather than the achieved service quality. QoS defines the ability to provide different priorities to
different applications, users, or data flows or the ability to guarantee a certain level of performance
to a data flow.
QRV
Querier’s Robustness Variable (QRV).
RADIUS
Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service
RAM
Random-access memory (RAM) is a form of computer memory that can be read and changed in any
order, and typically is used to store working data and machine code.
RARP

used by a client computer to request its Internet Protocol (IPv4) address from a computer network,
when all it has available is its link layer or hardware address, such as a MAC address.
RBAC
Role Based Authentication (RBAC)
RED
1) Random early detection (RED) is where a single queue may have several different sets of queue
thresholds.
2) Redundant interface (RED) or Red (e.g. RED 1 or RED 2).
RFD
A flapping route is an unstable route that is advertised and withdrawn over and over again. Every
time a flap occurs, a BGP UPDATE message is sent. When routers have to process many BGP
UPDATE messages, their CPU load increases.
BGP route dampening can be used to prevent installing flapping BGP routes and forwarding them
to other BGP routers. This decreases the CPU load of routers and increases network stability. Nowa-
days, routers are powerful enough to process BGP updates so dampening isn’t considered a best
practice anymore
RFP has 5 attributes - the default values are shown
• Penalty
• Suppress-Limit - 2000
• Half-Life - 900 secs
• Reuse limit - 750
• Maximum Suppress-Limit -3600 secs (60 min)
When the route exceeds the suppress limit, the route is dampened.Once the route is dampened,
the router won’t install the route in the routing table nor advertise it to other BGP neighbor.
If for example the penalty is 4000 and the half-life time is 15 minutes. After 15 minutes the penalty
will be 2000, after another 15 minutes, the penalty is 1000, and after another 15 minute, the
penalty is 500. Once the penalty is below the reuse limit of 750, the route can be used again and
xxv
advertised to other BGP routers. When the penalty is below 50% of the reuse limit, the penalty is
removed from the route.
The maximum suppress limit ensures that a route won’t be dampened forever. The maximum
suppress time is 3600 secs or 60 minutes by default.
RFL
Route Reflector Client (RFL); The route reflector allows all IBGP speakers within your autonomous
network to learn about the available routes without introducing loops
RIB
Routing Information Base (RIB); Routing and routing functions in enterprise and carrier networks
are typically performed by network devices (routers and switches) using an RIB. Protocols and
configuration push data into the RIB and the RIB manager installs state into the hardware for packet
forwarding.
RIP
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) sends routing-update messages at regular intervals and when
the network topology changes. When a router receives a routing update that includes changes to
an entry, it updates its routing table to reflect the new route. The metric value for the path is
increased by 1, and the sender is indicated as the next hop. RIP routers maintain only the best route
(the route with the lowest metric value) to a destination. After updating its routing table, the router
immediately begins transmitting routing updates to inform other network routers about the
change. These updates are sent independently of the regularly scheduled updates that RIP routers
send. RIP uses a hop count as a way to determine network distance. Each host with a router in the
network uses the routing table information to determine the next host to route a packet for a spec-
ified destination.
RMON
Remote network monitoring (RMON) is the process of monitoring network traffic on a remote
Ethernet segment for detectingnetwork issues such as dropped packets, network collisions, and
traffic congestion
RP
Rendezvous point (RP)
RPF
RPF stands for Reverse Path Forwarding. PIM uses reverse-path forwarding (RPF) to prevent multi-
cast routing loops by leveraging the unicast routing table on the virtual router. When the virtual
router receives a multicast packet, it looks up the source of the multicast packet in its unicast
routing table to see if the outgoing interface associated with that source IP address is the interface
on which that packet arrived. If the interfaces match, the virtual router duplicates the packet and
forwards it out the interfaces toward the multicast receivers in the group. If the interfaces don’t
match, the virtual router drops the packet. This is called a RPF failure.
RPT
Root Part Tree (RPT)
RRD
Route Redistribution (RRD)
xxvi
RSVP
Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) is a transport layer protocol designed to reserve resources
across a network using the integrated services model. RSVP operates over an IPv4 or IPv6 and
provides receiver-initiated setup of resource reservations for multicast or unicast data flows.
RS-232
RS-232 is a short range connection between a single host and a single device (such as a PC to a
modem) or another host (such as a PC to another PC). The standard uses a single TX line, a single
RX line, numerous modem handshaking lines and a ground line with the option of DB9 and DB25
connectors. A minimal 3-wire RS-232 connection consists only the TX, RX, and ground lines, but if
flow control is required a minimal 5-wire RS-232 is used adding the RTS and CTS lines. The RS-232
standard has been commonly used in computer serial ports and is still widely used in industrial
communication devices.
RS-422
RS-422 was meant as a replacement for RS-232 as it offered much higher speeds, better immunity
to noise and allow for longer cable lengths making it better suited to industrial environments. The
standard uses the same signals as the RS-232 standard, but used differential twisted pair so
requires double the number of wires as RS-232. Connectors are not specified in the standard so
block or DB connectors are commonly used. RS-422 cannot implement a true multi-point commu-
nications network since there can be only one driver on each pair of wires. However, one driver can
fan-out to up to ten receivers.
RS-485
RS-485 standard addresses some short coming of the RS-422 standard. The standard supports inex-
pensive local networks and multidrop communication links, using the same differential signalling
over twisted pairs as RS-422. The main difference being that in RS-485 drivers use three-state logic
allowing the individual transmitters to deactivate while not transmitting, while RS-422 the trans-
mitter is always active therefore holding the differential lines. Up to 32 devices can be connected,
but with repeaters a network with up to 256 devices can be achieved. RS-485 can be used in a
full-duplex 4-wire mode or half-duplex 2-wire mode. With long wires and high baud-rates it is
recommended that termination resistors are used at the far ends of the network for signal integrity
RST
RST stands for reset. RST is one of the TCP flags.
TCP flags are various types of flag bits present in the TCP header. Each of them has its own signifi-
cance. They initiate connections, carry data, and tear down connections. The commonly used TCP
flags are SYN, ACK, RST, FIN, URG, PSH.
• SYN (synchronize): Packets that are used to initiate a connection.
• ACK (acknowledgment): Packets that are used to confirm that the data packets have been received,
also used to confirm the initiation request and tear down requests.
• RST (reset): Signify the connection is down or maybe the service is not accepting the requests.
• FIN (finish): Indicate that the connection is being torn down. Both the sender and receiver send the
FIN packets to gracefully terminate the connection.
• PSH (push): Indicate that the incoming data should be passed on directly to the application instead
of getting buffered.
• URG (urgent): Indicate that the data that the packet is carrying should be processed immediately
by the TCP stack.
xxvii
RSTP
Rapid Spanning-Tree Protocol
RT
Route Target (RT) value; RT can be used to share routes among them. We can apply route targets
to a VRF to control the import and export of routes among it and other VRFs. When you configure
RT import, it imports all prefixes that match the configured RT value as one of the attributes in the
BGP update. So in any-any VRF, it is common to see all PE configured with same RT value
RTM
Routing Table Manager (RTM). The RTM is the central repository of routing information for all
routing protocols that operate under the routing and remote access service (RRAS). It provides
routing information to all interested clients, such as routing protocols, management programs, and
monitoring programs. The RTM also determines the best route to each destination network that is
known to the routing protocols. The determination of this route is based on routing protocol prior-
ities and on the metrics associated with the routes.
RTS
Request to Send (RTS)/CTS Flow Control is another flow control mechanism that is part of the RS232
standard.
RX
Receive
SA
Security Associations (SA). A SA is a relationship between two or more entities that describes how
the entities will utilize security services to communicate securely. In endpoint-to-endpoint Trans-
port Mode, both end points of the IP connection implement IPSec.

SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) is a small transceiver that plugs into the SFP port of a network
switch and connects to fibre channel and gigabit Ethernet (GbE) optical fiber cables at the other
end. The SFP converts the serial electrical signals to serial optical signals and vice versa. SFP
modules are hot swappable and contain ID and system information for the switch.
SFTP
SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP)
SHA
Secure Hash Algorithm is the name of a series of hash algorithms.
A hash function provides encryption using an algorithm and no key. A variable-length plaintext is
“hashed” into a (typically) fixed-length hash value (often called a “message digest” or simply a
“hash”). Hash functions are primarily used to provide integrity; the hash of a plaintext changes, the
plaintext itself has changed.
Common older hash functions include Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1), which creates a 160-bit
hash and Message Digest 5 (MD5), which creates a 128-bit hash.
xxviii
SIP
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is mostly well known for establishing voice and video calls over the
Internet. To initiate such sessions, SIP uses simple request and response messages. For example,
the INVITE request message is used to invite a user to begin a session and ACK confirms the user
has received the request. The response code 180 (Ringing) means the user is being alerted of the
call and 200 (OK) indicates the request was successful. Once a session has been established, BYE is
used to end the communication.
SISP

TB
Token Bucket (TB). The TB algorithm is based on an analogy of a fixed capacity bucket into which
tokens, normally representing a unit of bytes or a single packet of predetermined size, are added
at a fixed rate. When a packet is to be checked for conformance to the defined limits, the bucket is
inspected to see if it contains sufficient tokens at that time. If so, the appropriate number of tokens,
e.g. equivalent to the length of the packet in bytes, are removed ("cashed in"), and the packet is
passed, e.g., for transmission. The packet does not conform if there are insufficient tokens in the
bucket, and the contents of the bucket are not changed.
TC
TC (Topology Change); once the Root Bridge is aware of a change in the topology of the network, it
sets the Topology Change (TC) flag on the sent BPDs.

stored in the Vb class. Individual Variable Bindings are stored in the Vb class.
Create a variable binding and add the Object identifier in string format:
Vb vb = new Vb("1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0")
Create a variable binding and add the Object identifier in Oid format:
Oid oid = new Oid("1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0");
Vb vb = new Vb(oid);

VLAN
Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a logical subgroup within a local area network that is created
via software rather than manually moving cables in the wiring closet.
VPN
Virtual Private Network (VPN)
VRF
Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF). In IP-based computer networks, VRF is a technology that
allows multiple instances of a routing table to co-exist within the same router at the same time.
One or more logical or physical interfaces may have a VRF and these VRFs do not share routes;
therefore, the packets are only forwarded between interfaces on the same VRF. VRFs are the
TCP/IP layer 3 equivalent of a VLAN. Because the routing instances are independent, the same or
overlapping IP addresses can be used without conflicting with each other.
VRRP
VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol) is an election protocol that dynamically assigns respon-
sibility for one or more virtual router(s) to the VRRP router(s) on a LAN, allowing several routers on
a multi-access link to utilize the same virtual IP address. A VRRP router is configured to run the VRRP
protocol in conjunction with one or more other routers attached to a LAN. In a VRRP setup, one
router is elected as the virtual router master, and the other routers are acting as backups in case of
the failure of the virtual router master. VRRP is designed to eliminate the single point of failure
inherent in the static default routed environment
VSA
Vendor Specific Attribute (VSA)
WAN
A wide area network is a telecommunications network that extends over a large geographic area
for the primary purpose of computer networking.
Web UI
Web User Interface (Web UI) is a control panel in a device presented to the user via the Web
browser. Network devices such as gateways, routers, and switches typically have such control panel
xxxiii
that is accessed by entering the IP address of the device into a Web browser in a computer on the
same local network.
WINS
Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS)
WRED
WRED (Weighted Random Early Detection) is a queueing discipline for a network scheduler suited
for congestion avoidance. It is an extension to random early detection (RED) where a single queue
may have several different sets of queue thresholds.
WRR
Weighted Round Robin (WRR) is one of the scheduling algorithms used by the device. In WRR, there
is a number of queues and to every queue is assigned weight (w). In a classical WRR, the scheduler
cycles over the queues, and when a queue with weight w is visited, the scheduler can send conse-
quently a burst of up to w packets. This works well for packets with the same size.
