authentication-mode

View User interface view Parameter


password: Requires local authentication of password at log in. scheme: Requires local or remote authentication of username and password at

log in.
none: Allows users to log in without username or password.

Description This command configures the authentication method for a user at log in.

Use the command authentication-mode password to prompt a user for local password authentication at login. To set the password, use set authentication password. Use the command authentication-mode scheme to prompt a user to provide local or remote user name and password authentication at login. The type of the authentication depends on your network configuration. For further information, see AAA and RADIUS. Use the command authentication-mode none to allow a user to log in without username or password authentication.

By default, users logging in using the console port do not need to pass any terminal authentication. Users logging in via modem or Telnet are required to provide password authentication when they log in. Example To configure local password authentication, enter the following command:
[SW7700-ui-aux0]authentication-mode password

command: Enter the command you want to run automatically at user login.

Description Enter auto-execute command command to configure the Switch 7700 to automatically run a specified command. When the user logs in, the command will be executed automatically, after which the user will be disconnected. This command is usually used to connect the user to a specified device using Telnet. See the example below. CAUTION: If you execute this command, the user-interface can no longer be used to perform routine configurations on the local system. Ensure that you can log in to the system in another way to cancel the configuration, before you configure the auto-execute command.

Enter undo auto-execute command to cancel the auto-execute command, and return the Switch 7700 to its default settings.

By default, auto-execute is disabled. Example To configure the Switch 7700 to automatically Telnet to device 10.110.100.1 after the user logs in via VTY 0, enter the following command:

CHAPTER 1: USING SYSTEM ACCESS COMMANDS

1 Monitoring 2 Configuration 3 Management

You can assign a priority level depending on user requirements. The commands that a user can access depend first on the access level assigned to the command and second on the access level assigned to the user interface. If the two levels are different, the access level assigned to the command has priority. For example, if the access level of a user interface is 1, but a specific user can access commands at level 3, the user can log in from this user interface, but can access commands up to and including level 3. By default:

ping, tracert, and telnet are at level 0 display and debugging are at level 1 all configuration commands are at level 2 FTP, XMODEM, TFTP and commands for file system operations are at level 3

Use the undo command-privilege view command to restore the default priority to a command. Example To assign a command level of 0 to the interface command in system view, enter the following:

This section describes the commands you can use to configure and manage the ports on your Switch 7700.

Syntax
broadcast-suppression pct undo broadcast-suppression

View Ethernet port view Parameter


pct: Specifies the maximum wire speed ratio of the broadcast traffic allowed on

the port. The value ranges from 5 to 100. The step is 5. By default, the value is 100. The smaller the ratio is, the smaller the broadcast traffic is allowed. Description

Use broadcast-suppression command to configure the broadcast traffic size enabled on port. Once the broadcast traffic exceeds the value set by the user, the system will discard some broadcast to ensure network service so that the traffic ratio of broadcast is maintained in a proper range. Use the undo broadcast-suppression command to restore the default broadcast traffic enabled on port as 100 so that 100% broadcast traffic is allowed to pass through.

Note that in the Switch 7700, you can only use the command at the port on 20-port 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet card or 20-port 1000Base-X Gigabit Ethernet card. Example Enable 20% broadcast cast to pass so that 80% broadcast storm suppression is made on broadcast traffic of port.

interface_name: Source port name, in the format of interface_name = interface_type interface_num. For more information, see the parameter item for the interface command. interface_list: Destination port list, interface_list1 = { interface_type interface_num | interface_name } [ to { interface_type interface_num | interface_name } ] &<1-10>. &<1-10> indicates that the former parameter can

be input 10 times repeatedly at most.


agg-id: Source or destination aggregation group ID. If it is a source aggregation

group, the port with the smallest port number is the source port; if it is a destination aggregation group, the configurations of all its member ports changes to be consistent with that of the source. Description

Use the copy configuration command to copy the VLAN, STP, speed, and duplex configuration of a specific port to other ports, to ensure consistent configuration. For greatest success, copy between ports of the same type. However, you can copy between different port types if the port speeds are the same.

Example Copy the configuration of aggregation group 1 to aggregation group 2.


[SW7700] copy configuration source aggregation-group 1 destination aggregation-group 2

Copy the configuration of aggregation group 1 to interface group 1.


[SW7700] copy configuration source aggregation-group 1 destination gig 2/0/1 to gig 2/0/4

It usually advertises a static route at an interval, regardless of the changes to dynamic routes to the same destination. For details, see the specific routing protocol. Delete Hidden The number of deleted routes. The number of hidden routes, that is routes not available at present but still required. They can be hidden for future use.

Static Route Configuration Command


delete static-routes all

This section describes the command you can use to configure a static route.

Syntax
delete static-routes all

View System view Parameter None Description Use the delete static-routes all command to delete all the static routes.

Static Route Configuration Command

149

The system requests your confirmation before it deletes all the configured static routes. Related commands: ip route-static and display ip routing-table. Example Delete all the static routes in the router.
[SW7700] delete static-routes all This will erase all unicast static routes and their configurations, you must reconfigure all static routes Are you sure to delete all the static routes?[Y/N]

ip route-static

Syntax
ip route-static ip_address { mask | mask-length } { interface_name | gateway_address } [ preference preference_value ] [ reject | blackhole ] undo ip route-static ip-address { mask | mask_length } [ interface_name | gateway_address ] [ preference preference_value ]

View System view Parameter


ip-address: Destination IP address in dotted decimal notation. mask: Mask. mask-length: The number of consecutive 1s in the mask. Because 1s in the 32-bit

mask must be consecutive, the mask in dotted decimal format can be replaced by
mask-length. interface_name . Specify the transmission interface name of the route.Packets that are sent to a NULL interface, are discarded immediately which decreases the system load. gateway_address . Specify the next hop IP address of the route. preference_value . The preference level of the route in the range 1 to 255. The

default is 60.
reject: Indicates an unreachable route. blackhole: Indicates a blackhole route.

Description

Use the ip route-static command to configure a static route. Use the undo ip route-static command to delete the configured static route.

By default, the system can access the subnet route directly connected to the router. If you do not use the parameters preference, reject or blackhole, the

150

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

route will be reachable by default with a preference level of 60. If it is not specified as reject or blackhole, the route will be reachable by default. A static route is a special route. You can set up an interconnecting network with the static route configuration. The problem for such configuration is when a fault occurs to the network, the static route cannot change automatically to steer away from the node causing the fault without the help of an administrator. In a relatively simple network, you only need to configure the static routes to make the router work normally. The proper configuration and usage of the static route can improve the network performance and ensure the bandwidth of the important applications. All the following routes are static routes:

Reachable route A normal route is of this type. That is, the IP packet is sent to the next hop via the route marked by the destination. It is a common type of static routes. Unreachable route When a static route to a destination has the reject attribute, all the IP packets to this destination will be discarded, and the originating host will be informed destination unreachable. Blackhole route When a static route to a destination is of the blackhole attribute, all the IP packets to this destination will be discarded, and the originating host will not be informed.

The attributes reject and blackhole are usually used to control the range of reachable destinations of this router and to help troubleshoot the network. Use the following precautions when configuring a static route:

When the destination IP address and subnet mask are both set to 0.0.0.0, this is the configured default route. A packet is forwarded along the default route if a routing table is not detected. As an alternative way to configure preference level, a flexible routing protocol can be adopted.

Related command: display ip routing-table. Example To configure the next hop of the default route as 129.102.0.2, enter the following:
[SW7700]ip route-static 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 129.102.0.2

RIP Configuration Commands

This section describes the commands you can use to configure the Routing Information Protocol (RIP). When the Switch 7700 runs a routing protocol, it is able to perform the functions of a router. The term router in this section can refer either to a physical router or to the Switch 7700 running a routing protocol.

RIP Configuration Commands

151

checkzero

Syntax
checkzero undo checkzero

View RIP view Parameter None Description

Use the checkzero command to check the zero field of RIP-1 packets. By default, RIP-1 performs zero field checking. Use the undo checkzero command to disable the checking of the zero fields.

According to the RFC1058 protocol specifications, some fields in RIP-1 packets must be set to zero. These are called zero fields. During the zero check operation, if a RIP-1 packet is received in which the zero fields are not zeros, it will be rejected. Use the checkzero command to enable or disable the zero check operation on RIP-1. This command does not work with RIP-2 packets, since RIP-2 packets have no zero fields. Example To configure the Switch not to perform zero checking for RIP-1 packet, enter the following:
[SW7700-rip]undo checkzero

default cost

Syntax
default cost value undo default cost

View RIP view Parameter


value Enter the default routing cost, in the range 1 to 16. The default is 1.

Description

Use the default cost command to set the default routing cost of an imported route. Use the undo default cost command to restore the default value.

If you do not specify a routing cost when using the import-route command, the default cost you specify here is used. Related command: import-route.

152

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

Example To set the default routing cost of the imported route of another routing protocol to 3, enter the following:
[SW7700-rip]default cost 3

display rip

acl_number: Enter the number of the ACL that you want to use to filter the

destination addresses of the routing information.

RIP Configuration Commands

153

ip_prefix_name: Enter the name of the address prefix list that you want to use to filter the destination addresses of the routing information. routing_protocol: Enter the routing protocol whose routing information is to be

filtered. This can be one of the following:


direct - Specifies direct routes bgp - Specifies Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). ospf- Specifies Open Shortest Path First (OSPF). ospf-ase - Specifies OSPF external routes. ospf-nssa - Specifies OSPF NSSA external routes. static - Specifies static routes.

Description

Use the filter-policy export command to configure RIP to filter the advertised routing information. Use the undo filter-policy export command to configure RIP not to filter the advertised routing information. This is the default.

Related commands: acl, filter-policy import, ip ip-prefix. Example To filter the advertised route information using acl 2003, enter the following:
[SW7700-rip]filter-policy 2003 export

filter-policy import

Syntax
filter-policy gateway ip_prefix_name import undo filter-policy gateway ip_prefix_name import filter-policy { acl_number | ip-prefix ip_prefix_name gateway ip-prefix-name ] } import undo filter-policy { acl_number | ip-prefix ip_prefix_name [ gateway ip-prefix-name ]} import

gateway ip_prefix_name Enter the name of the address prefix list. This is used to

filter the addresses of this neighboring routers advertising the routing information.
acl_number Enter an ACL number. This is used to filter the destination addresses

of the routing information.


ip_prefix_name Enter the name of the address prefix list. This is used to filter the

destination addresses of the routing information.

154

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

Description

Use the filter-policy gateway import command to configure the switch to filter the routing information received from a specified address. Use the undo filter-policy gateway import command to configure the switch not to filter the routing information received from the specified address. Use the filter-policy import command to configure the switch to filter global routing information. Use the undo filter-policy import command to disable filtering of received global routing information.

By default, RIP does not filter the received routing information. Related commands: acl, filter-policy export, ip ip-prefix. Example To configure the filtering of the global routing information using ACL 2003, enter the following:
[SW7700-rip]filter-policy 2003 import

host-route

Syntax
host-route undo host-route

View RIP view Parameter None Description

Use the host-route command to configure RIP to accept host routes. This is the default. Use the undo host-route command to configure RIP to reject host routes.

Example To configure RIP to reject a host route, enter the following:


[SW7700-rip]undo host-route

import-route

Syntax

RIP Configuration Commands

155

Parameter
protocol Enter the routing protocol to be imported. This can be one of the following: direct, bgp, isis, ospf, ospf-ase, ospf-nssa or static. value Enter the cost value of the route to be imported. route-policy route_policy_name Enter a route-policy name. Only routes that

match the conditions of the specified policy are imported. Description

Use the import-route command to import the routes of other protocols into RIP. Use the undo import-route command to cancel the import of routes from other protocols. By default, RIP does not import any other route.

The import-route command is used to import the route of another protocol. If you do not specify a cost value , routes are imported according to the current value of the default cost command, which must be in the range 1 to 16. If the default cost is larger than or equal to 16, RIP regards this an unreachable and the transmission is stopped within 120 seconds. If you specify a cost value RIP regards the imported route as its own route and transmits it with the specified cost value. This command can greatly enhance the capability of RIP to obtain routes, and therefore increases the performance of RIP. Related commands: default cost. Example To import a static route with a cost of 4, enter the following:
[SW7700-rip]import-route static cost 4

To set the default cost, and then import an OSPF route with this default cost, enter the following two commands:
[SW7700-rip]default cost 3 [SW7700-rip]import-route ospf

network

Syntax
network network_address undo network network_address

View RIP view Parameter


network_address: Enter the IP network address of an interface.

156

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

Description

Use the network command to enable Routing Information Protocol (RIP) on the interface of a specified network segment connected to the router. Use the undo network command to disable RIP on the interface. By default, RIP is disabled on an interface.

After you have enabled RIP, you must also enable RIP for a specified interface using this command. RIP only operates on the interface of specified network segments. The undo network command is similar to the undo rip work command, in that an interface using either command will not receive/transmit RIP routes. However, if you use undo rip work, other interfaces will still forward the routes of the interfaces set to undo rip work. If you use undo network, other interfaces will not forward the routes of interfaces set to undo network. When the network command is used on an IP address, the interface on this network segment is enabled. For example, if you view the network 129.102.1.1 with both the display current-configuration command and the display rip, the IP address is shown as 129.102.0.0. Related commands: rip work. Example To enable RIP on the interface with the network address 129.102.0.0., enter the following:
[SW7700-rip]network 129.102.0.0

peer

Syntax
peer ip_address undo peer ip_address

View RIP view Parameter


ip_address Enter the IP address of the peer router.

Description

Use the peer command to configure the destination address of the peer device. Use the undo peer command to cancel the set destination address. By default, there is no destination address.

3Com recommends that you do not use this command. RIP can use unicast to exchange information with non-broadcasting networks. If required, you can use this command to specify the destination address of the peer device. Example To specify the sending destination address as 202.38.165.1, enter the following:
[SW7700-rip]peer 202.38.165.1

Use the rip authentication-mode md5 type command to configure the format type of the MD5 cipher text authentication packet for RIP-2. Use the undo rip authentication-mode command to cancel RIP-2 authentication.

There are two RIP-2 authentication modes: simple authentication and MD5 cipher text authentication. When you use MD5 cipher text authentication mode, two types of packet formats are available. The standard format (set using the usual parameter), is described in RFC 1723. The non-standard format (set using the nonstandard parameter), is described in RFC 2082. RIP-1 does not support authentication. Related command: rip version. Example To specify the interface Vlan-interface 1 to use simple authentication with the key set to aaa, enter the following:
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]rip version 2 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]rip authentication-mode simple aaa

To specify the interface Vlan-interface 1 to use MD5 cipher text authentication with the key set to aaa and the packet type as nonstandard, enter the following:
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]rip version 2 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]rip authentication-mode md5 key-string aaa [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]rip authentication-mode md5 type nonstandard

View Interface View Parameter


1 Enter to set the interface version to RIP-1. 2 Enter to set the interface version to RIP-2. broadcast Enter to set the transmission mode of an RIP-2 packet to broadcast. multicast Enter to set the transmission mode of an RIP-2 packet to multicast.

RIP Configuration Commands

163

Description

Use the rip version command to configure the version number of RIP packets on an interface. Use the undo rip version command to restore the default RIP packet version on the interface. The interface RIP version is RIP-1.

By default, RIP-1 transmits packets in broadcast mode, while RIP-2 transmits packets in multicast mode. When running RIP-1, the interface receives and transmits RIP-1 packets, and can also receive RIP-2 broadcast packets. When running RIP-2 in broadcast mode, the interface receives and transmits RIP-2 broadcast packets, and can also receive both RIP-1 packets and RIP-2 multicast packets. When running RIP-2 in multicast mode, the interface receives and transmits RIP-2 multicast packets, and can also receive RIP-2 broadcast packets. The interface can not receive RIP-1 packets. Example To configure the interface Vlan-interface 1 to RIP-2 broadcast mode, enter the following:
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]rip version 2 broadcast

rip work

Syntax
rip work undo rip work

View Interface View Parameter None Description

Use the rip work command to enable the RIP on an interface. This is the default. Use the undo rip work command to disable RIP on an interface.

This command is used in conjunction with the rip input, rip output and network commands. Refer to the descriptions of these commands for details. Related commands: network, rip input, rip output. Example To disable the running of RIP on interface Vlan-interface 1, enter the following:
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]undo rip work

164

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

summary

Syntax
summary undo summary

View RIP view Parameter None Description

Use the summary command to activate RIP-2 automatic route summarization. This is the default. Use the undo summary command to disable RIP-2 automatic route summarization.

Route aggregation can be performed to reduce the routing traffic on the network as well as to reduce the size of the routing table. RIP-1 does not support subnet masks. Forwarding subnet routes may cause ambiguity. Networks that use RIP-1 should always use the natural mask. Therefore, RIP-1 uses route summarization all the time. If RIP-2 is used, route summarization function can be disabled with the undo summary command, when it is necessary to broadcast the subnet route. Related command: rip Example To set the RIP version on the interface Vlan-interface 1 to RIP-2, and then disable the route aggregation, enter the following:
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]rip version 2 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]quit [SW7700]rip [SW7700-rip]undo summary

timers

Syntax
timers { update update-timer-length | timeout timeout-timer-length } * undo timers { update | timeout } *

View RIP view Parameter


update-timer-length: Value of the period update timer, ranging from 1 to 3600 seconds. The default value is 30 seconds. timeout-timer-length: Value of the timeout timer, ranging from 1 to 3600 seconds. The default value is 180 seconds.

OSPF Configuration Commands

165

Description

Use the timers command to modify the values of the three RIP timers: period update, timeout, and garbage-collection. Use the undo timers command to restore the default settings.

By default, the values of period update, timeout, and garbage-collection timers are 30 seconds, 180 seconds, and 120 seconds, respectively. Generally, the value of garbage-collection timer is fixed to 4 times the value of period update timer. However, before RIP completely deletes an unreachable route from the routing table, it advertises the route by sending four period update packets, to acknowledge to all the neighbors that the route is unreachable. Therefore, the actual value of garbage-collection timer is 3 to 4 times of that of period update timer. Adjusting period update timer will affect garbage-collection timer. The modification of RIP timers takes effect immediately. Related Command: display rip Example Set the values of Period Update timer and Timeout timer of RIP to 10 seconds and 30 seconds respectively.
[SW7700] rip [SW7700] timers update 10 timeout 30

OSPF Configuration Commands

This section describes the commands you can use to configure the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing protocol. When the Switch 7700 runs a routing protocol, it is able to perform the functions of a router. The term router in this section can refer either to a physical router or to the Switch 7700 running a routing protocol.

abr-summary

Syntax
abr-summary ip_address ip_mask [ advertise | not-advertise ] undo abr-summary ip_address ip_mask

View OSPF Area view Parameter


ip_address Enter a network segment IP address. ip_mask Enter the subnet mask.

Description

Use the abr-summary command to configure the route aggregation on the area border router.

166

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

Use the undo abr-summary command to disable the route aggregation on the area border router. This is the default.

This command is applicable only to the area border router (ABR) and is used for the route aggregation in an area. The ABR only transmits an aggregated route to other areas. Route aggregation refers to the routing information that is processed in the ABR. For each network segment configured with route aggregation, there is only one route transmitted to other areas. Example To enter area 1, and then aggregate the network segments, 66.48.10.0 and 66.48.120.0 into the summary route 66.48.0.0, enter the following:
[SW7700-ospf-1]area 1 [SW7700-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.1]network 66.48.10.0 0.0.0.255 [SW7700-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.1]network 66.48.120.0 0.0.0.255 [SW7700-ospf-1-area-0.0.0.1]abr-summary 66.48.0.0 255.255.0.0

matching the specified IP address and mask.


tag value: Enter a tag value, which is mainly used to control advertisement of routes via route-policy. This value can be in the range 0 to 4294967295. The default is 1.

Description

Use the asbr-summary command to configure a summary of imported routes for OSPF. Use the undo asbr-summary command to cancel the summary. This is the default.

After the summarization of imported routes is configured, if the local router is an autonomous system border router (ASBR), this command summarizes the imported Type-5 LSAs in the summary address range. When NSSA is configured, this command will also summarize the imported Type-7 LSAs in the summary address range. If the local router acts as both an ABR and a router in the NSSA, this command summarizes Type-5 LSAs transformed from Type-7 LSAs. If the router is not the router in the NSSA, the summarization is disabled. Related commands: display ospf asbr-summary. Example To summarize the OSPF imported routes, enter the following:
[SW7700-ospf]asbr-summary 10.2.0.0 255.255.0.0 not-advertise

Enabled in the NBMA environment, such as Frame Relay, X.25 or ATM. It indicates that OSPF router has not received the message from a certain neighbor router within a period of time, but still attempts to send a Hello packet to the adjacent routers for their communications with a lower frequency. Indicates that the OSPF router has received a Hello packet from a neighbor router, but its IP address is not contained in the Hello packet. Therefore, a two-way communication between them has not been established.. It indicates that a two-way communication between an OSPF router and a neighbor router has been established. DR and BDR can be selected in this state (or higher state) In this state, the router determines the sequence number of the initial database description (DD) packet used for data exchange, so that it can obtain the latest link state information. Indicates that the OSPF router sends DD packet to its neighbor routers to exchange link state information. In this state, OSPF router requests neighbor routers based on the updated link state information from neighbor routers and its expired information, and waits for response from neighbor routers. Indicates that database synchronization between the routers that has established neighbor relations has been completed, and their link state databases have been consistent.

Parameter
default-route-advertise Imports the default route to the NSSA area. no-import-route Blocks the import of the default route to the NSSA area. no-summary: Disables ABR from transmitting summary_net LSAs to the NSSA

area. Description Using the nssa command, you can configure the type of an OSPF area as an NSSA area. Using the undo nssa command, you can cancel the function. By default, NSSA area is not configured. For all the routers connected to the NSSA area, the command nssa must be used to configure the area as the NSSA attribute. The default-route-advertise parameter is used to generate a default type-7 LSA. No matter whether there is route 0.0.0.0 in the routing table on an ABR, type-7 LSA default route will always be generated. Only when there is route 0.0.0.0 in routing table on ASBR, will a type-7 LSA default route be generated. On ASBR, the no-import-route parameter disables an external route that is imported by OSPF with the import-route command from being advertised to the NSSA area. Example To configure area 1 as an NSSA area, enter the following:
[SW7700-ospf]area 1 [SW7700-ospf-area-0.0.0.1]network 36.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 [SW7700-ospf-area-0.0.0.1]nssa

View System view Parameter


process-id: Process ID of OSPF, ranging from 1 to 65535. By default, the process

ID is 1. Description Using the ospf mib-binding command, you can bind the MIB operation to the specified OSPF process. Using the undo ospf mib-binding command, you can restore the default settings. When OSPF protocol enables the first process, it always binds MIB operation to this process. You can use this command to bind MIB operation to another OSPF process. Execute the undo ospf mib-binding command if you want to cancel the setting. OSPF will automatically re-bind MIB operation to the first process that it enables. By default, MIB operation is bound to the first enabled OSPF process. Example Bind MIB operation to OSPF process 100.
[SW7700] ospf mib-binding 100

Bind MIB operation to OSPF process 200.


[SW7700] ospf mib-binding 200

Using the undo ospf mtu-enable command, you can restore the default. By default, the MTU value is 0 when sending DD packets, that is the MTU value of the interface is not written. DD packets (Database Description Packet) are sent by the router to describe its own LSDB when the router running OSPF protocol is synchronizing the database. Example To set interface Vlan-interface 3 to write the MTU value when sending DD packets, enter the following:
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 3 [SW7700-Vlan-interface 3]ospf mtu-enable

ospf network-type

Syntax
ospf network-type { broadcast | nbma | p2mp | p2p } undo ospf network-type

View VLAN interface view Parameter


broadcast: Change the interface network type to broadcast. nbma: Change the interface network type to NBMA. p2mp: Change the interface network type to p2mp. p2p: Change the interface network type to point-to-point.

Description

Use the ospf network-type command to configure the network type of OSPF interface. Use the undo ospf network-type command to restore the default network type of the OSPF interface.

OSPF divides networks into four types by link layer protocol:

Broadcast: If Ethernet or FDDI is adopted, OSPF defaults the network type to broadcast. Non-Broadcast Muli-access (nbma): If Frame Relay, ATM, HDLC or X.25 is adopted, OSPF defaults the network type to NBMA. Point-to-Multipoint (p2mp): OSPF will not default the network type of any link layer protocol to p2mp. The general undertaking is to change a partially

OSPF Configuration Commands

191

connected NBMA network to p2mp network if the NBMA network is not fully-meshed.

Point-to-point (p2p): If PPP, LAPB or POS is adopted, OSPF defaults the network type to p2p.

NBMA means that a network is non-broadcast and multi-accessible. ATM is a typical example. A user can configure the polling interval to specify the interval of sending polling hello packets before the adjacency of the neighboring routers is formed. Configure the interface type to nonbroadcast on a broadcast network without multi-access capability. Configure the interface type to p2mp if not all the routers are directly accessible on an NBMA network. Change the interface type to p2p if the router has only one peer on the NBMA network. When the network type of an interface is NBMA or it is changed to NBMA manually, the peer command must be used to configure the neighboring point. Related command: ospf dr-priority. Example Set the interface Vlan-interface 1 to NBMA type.

ospf timer dead

Syntax
ospf timer dead seconds undo ospf timer dead

View VLAN interface view Parameter


seconds Enter the amount of dead time allowed, in seconds, in the range 1 to

65535. Description Using the ospf timer dead command, you can configure the amount of dead time allowed to OSPF neighbors, in seconds. Using the undo ospf timer dead command, you can restore the default value. By default, the dead time allowed to OSPF neighbors is 40 seconds. If no Hello message is received from a neighbor in the specified time, the neighbor is considered invalid. The timer dead value should be at least four times that of the timer hello value. The timer dead value for routers on the same network segment must be identical.

192

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

Related commands: ospf timer hello. Example To set the dead time to 80 seconds on interface Vlan-interface 1, enter the following:
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]ospf timer dead 80

ospf timer hello

Syntax
ospf timer hello seconds undo ospf timer hello

View VLAN interface view Parameter


seconds Enter the Hello interval time allowed, in seconds, in the range 1 to 255.

Description Using the ospf timer hello command, you can configure the Hello interval time allowed for an interface. Using the undo ospf timer hello command, you can restore the interval to the default value. By default, the amount of time allowed is 10 seconds for an interface of p2p or broadcast type, and 30 seconds for an interface of nbma or p2mp type. Related command: ospf timer dead. Example To set a time interval of 20 seconds for transmitting Hello messages on the interface Vlan-interface 1, enter the following:
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]ospf timer hello 20

ospf timer poll

View VLAN interface view Parameter


seconds Enter the poll Hello interval in seconds, in the range 1 to 65535. The default value is 120 seconds.

OSPF Configuration Commands

193

Description Using the ospf timer poll command, you can configure the Hello packet poll interval. Using the undo ospf timer poll command, you can restore the default poll interval. The Poll interval should be at least three times the Hello interval. Example To set the transmit poll Hello packet interval to 130 seconds for interface Vlan-interface 2, enter the following:
[SW7700-Vlan-interface2]ospf timer poll 130

ospf timer retransmit

Syntax
ospf timer retransmit interval undo ospf timer retransmit

View VLAN interface view Parameter


interval Enter the interval allowed before LSA re-transmission. This time is set for

an interface, in seconds, in the range 1 to 65535. The default value is 5 seconds. Description Using the ospf timer retransmit command, you can configure the interval before LSA re-transmission on an interface. Using the undo ospf timer retransmit command, you can restore the default interval value for LSA re-transmission on an interface. When a router transmits a Link State Advertisement (LSA) to the peer, it waits for the acknowledgement packet. If no acknowledgement is received from the neighbor within the time you set using this command, the LSA is re-transmitted. According to RFC2328, the LSA retransmit between adjacent routers should not be set too short to avoid unexpected re-transmission. Example To set the retransmit interval between the interface Vlan-interface 1 and the adjacent routers to 12 seconds, enter the following:
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]ospf timer retransmit 12

value Enter the LSA transmission delay, in seconds, in the range 1 to 3600. By default, the value is 1 second.

Description Using the ospf trans-delay command, you can configure the LSA transmission delay on an interface. Using the undo ospf trans-delay command, you can restore the default value of the LSA transmission delay. LSA will age in the link state database (LSDB) of the router as time goes by (add 1 for every second), but it will not age during network transmission. Therefore, it is necessary to add a period of time set by this command to the aging time of LSA before transmitting it. Example To set the LSA transmission delay to three seconds on interface Vlan-interface 1, enter the following:
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]ospf trans-delay 3

By default, the preference of an OSPF protocol internal route is 10 and the preference of an external route is 150. Because multiple dynamic routing protocols could be running on a router at any one time, priority needs to be assigned to each protocol. Using this command, you can set a default preference for each routing protocol. The protocol with the higher preference has priority. Example To set the preference of an imported external route of the AS to 160, enter the following:
[SW7700-ospf]preference ase 160

reset ospf all

Syntax
reset ospf [ statistics ] { all | process-id }

View User view Parameter


all: Reset all OSPF processes process-id: Process ID of OSPF, ranging from 1 to 65535. By default, the process

ID is 1.
statistics: Reset OSPF statistics.

Description Using the reset ospf all command, you can reset the OSPF process, as follows:

Invalid LSAs are cleared immediately without waiting for LSA timeout. If the Router ID changes, a new Router ID takes effect to execute the command.

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

Re-elect DR and BDR. OSPF configuration before the restart will not be lost.

After you enter the command, you are asked to confirm that the OSPF protocol should be re-enabled. Example Reset all the OSPF processes:
<SW7700>reset ospf all

router id

Syntax
router id router_id undo router id

View System view Parameter


router_id Enter the router ID as a 32-bit unsigned integer.

Description Using the router id command, you can configure the ID of a router running the OSPF protocol. Using the undo router id command, you can cancel the router ID that has been set. To discover the router ID, use the display ospf brief command to read the selected interface. You can also use the router id command to select the router ID interface manually. The router ID is a 32-bit unsigned integer that uniquely identifies a router in an OSPF system. You can specify the ID for a router. If a router ID isnt specified, the router automatically selects one of the configured IP address as the router ID. If an IP address is not configured for any interface, the router ID must be configured in OSPF view. Otherwise, OSPF protocol cannot be enabled. When the router ID is configured manually, the IDs of any two routers cannot be the same in the autonomous system. So, the IP address of one interface can be selected as the router ID. The modified router ID will not be valid unless OSPF is re-enabled. Related command: ospf. Example To set the router ID to 10.1.1.3., enter the following:
[SW7700]router id 10.1.1.3

Description Using the silent-interface command, you can prevent an interface from transmitting OSPF packets. Using the undo silent-interface command, you can restore the default setting. By default, the interface transmits OSPF packets. You can use this command to stop the transmission of OSPF packets on an interface. This prevents the router on some network from receiving the OSPF routing information. Example To stop interface Vlan-interface 2 from transmitting OSPF packets, enter the following:

Use the undo snmp-agent trap enable ospf command to disable the OSPF TRAP function. This command cannot be applied to the OSPF processes that are started after the command is executed. By default, the switch does not send TRAP packets in case of OSPF anomalies. For detailed configuration of SNMP TRAP, see Using System Management Commands on page 133. Example Enable the TRAP function for OSPF process 100.
<SW7700> snmp-agent trap enable ospf 100

View OSPF view Parameter


interval Enter the SPF route calculation interval for OSPF, in seconds, in the range 1 to 10. The default value is 5 seconds.

Description Using the spf-schedule-interval command, you can configure the route calculation interval of OSPF. Using the undo spf-schedule-interval command, you can restore the default setting. According to the Link State Database (LSDB), the router running OSPF can calculate the shortest path tree, with itself as the root, and determine the next hop to the destination network according to the shortest path tree. By adjusting the SPF calculation interval, you can decrease the frequency of network changes and unnecessary consumption of bandwidth and router resources. Example To set the OSPF route calculation interval of the Switch 7700 to 6 seconds, enter the following:
[SW7700-ospf]spf-schedule-interval 6

router_id Enter the Router ID of a virtual link neighbor. hello seconds Enter the interval for the transmission of hello packets, in the range 1 to 8192 seconds. This must equal the hello seconds value of the router virtually linked to the interface. The default value is 10 seconds. retransmit seconds Enter the interval for the retransmission of LSA packets on an interface, in the range 1 to 8192 seconds. The default value is 5 seconds. trans-delay seconds Enter the delay interval for transmitting LSA packets on an

interface, in the range 1 to 8192 seconds. The default value is 1 second.

200

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

dead seconds Enter the dead time interval, in the range 1 to 8192 seconds. This

value must equal the dead time of the virtually linked router, and must be at least four times that of the hello interval. The default value is 40 seconds.
simple password Enter the simple text authentication key of the interface, in eight characters or less. This must equal the authentication key of the virtually linked neighbor. md5 keyid Enter the MD5 authentication key ID, in the range 1 to 255. This must

be equal to the authentication key ID of the virtually linked peer.


key Enter the MD5 authentication key, in a character string not exceeding 16

characters. This must be equal to the authentication key of the virtually linked peer. It is displayed in cipher text format, 24 characters in length. Entering the key in cipher text format with 24 characters is also supported. Description Using the vlink-peer command, you can create and configure a virtual link. Using the undo vlink-peer command, you can cancel an existing virtual link. RFC2328 recommends that an OSPF area should be connected to the backbone network. You can use vlink-peer command to set up the connectivity. Virtual link can be regarded as a common interface that uses OSPF so that you can easily understand how to configure parameters such as hello, retransmit, and trans-delay. When configuring virtual link authentication, use the authentication-mode command to set the authentication type to MD5 cipher text or plain text on the backbone network. Related commands: authentication-mode, display ospf. Example To create a virtual link to 10.110.0.3, and use the MD5 cipher authentication mode, enter the following:
[SW7700-ospf]area 10.0.0.0 [SW7700-ospf-area-10.0.0.0]vlink-peer 10.110.0.3 md5 3 345

password: Specify the authentication password which can be a character string with 1 to 16 characters. If md5 is specified, the password is displayed in a cipher text form with 24 characters when the display current-configuration command is executed. Entering a password in a cipher text form with 24 characters is also supported. simple: Configure to transmit the password in simple text. md5: Configure to transmit the password encrypted with MD5 algorithm. ip: Specify the IP authentication password. osi: Specify the OSI authentication password.

The configuration of an IP or an OSI authentication password is independent of the real network environment. Description

Use the area-authentication-mode command to configure ISIS to authenticate received level-1 routing information packets (LSP, CSNP and PSNP), according to the pre-defined mode and password. Use the undo area-authentication-mode command to configure ISIS not to authenticate the received level-1 routing information packets.

In default configuration, the system will not authenticate received level-1 routing packets, and there is no password. By setting authentication, you can reject all the level-1 routing packets, whose area authentication passwords are not consistent with the one set by this command. At the same time, this command makes ISIS insert the area authentication password, hashed or plain-text, into all the level-1 routing packets sent by this node. Related commands: reset isis all, domain-authentication-mode, isis authentication-mode. Example Set the area authentication password to hello and the authentication type to simple.

View IS-IS view Parameter None Description

Use the ignore-lsp-checksum-error command to require the IS-IS to discard LSPs with checksum errors. Use the undo ignore-lsp-checksum-error command to requires the IS-IS to process LSPs with checksum errors.

By default, the LSP checksum errors are retained. After receiving an LSP packet, the local IS-IS calculates its checksum and compare the result with the checksum in the LSP packet. By default, if the checksum in the packet is not consistent with the calculated result, the LSP is processed and rejected. A network purge of the corrupted LSP can then be initiated. However, if the ignore-lsp-checksum-error command is used, an LSP with a checksum error is discarded silently.

If the level is not specified, it defaults to importing the routes into level-2. level-1-2: Configure to import the route into Level-1 and Level-2 routing table. route-policy route-policy-name: Configure to import the routes matching the conditions defined in the specified route-policy only.

Description

Use the import-route command to configure IS-IS to import the routing information of other protocols. Use the undo import-route command to cancel this function.

By default, IS-IS does not import the routing information of other protocols. For IS-IS, the routes discovered by other routing protocols are processed as routes outside the routing domain. When importing the routes of other protocols, you can specify their routing metric. When IS-IS imports routes, you can also specify whether to import the routes into Level-1, Level-2 or Level-1-2. IS-IS regards all the routes imported into the routing domain as external routes, which describe routing outside the IS-IS routing domain.

Inputting the password in a cipher text form with 24 characters is also supported. md5: Configure to transmit the password encrypted with MD5 algorithm. simple: Configure to transmit the password in plain text. level-1: Configure authentication password for L1. level-2: Configure authentication password for L2. ip: Specify the IP authentication password. osi: Specify the OSI authentication password.

The configuration of ip or osi authentication password is independent of the real network environment. Description

Use the isis authentication-mode command to configure IS-IS to authenticate hello packets of the corresponding level, in the specified mode and with the specified password on the IS-IS interface. Use the undo isis authentication-mode command to cancel authentication and delete the password at the same time.

By default, the password is not set and no authentication is executed. If the password is set, but no parameter is specified, the default settings are level-1, and osi. Related commands: area-authentication-mode, domain-authentication-mode. Example Set the authentication password tangier in plain text for the Level-1 hello packets on Interface Vlan-interface 1.

Parameter
level-1: Configure the current interface to send only Level-1 hello packets and to form only Level-1 adjacencies. level-1-2: Configure the current interface to send Level-1 and Level-2 hello packets and to form Level-1 and Level-2 adjacencies. level-2: Configure the current interface to send only Level-2 hello packets and to form only Level-2 adjacencies.

Description Use the isis circuit-level command to configure the circuit type. Use the undo isis circuit-level command to restore the default setting. By default, the value is level-1-2. This command is only applicable to a level-1-2 router. If the local router is a level-1-2 router and it is required to establish an adjacency with the peer router on a certain level (level-1 or level-2), this command can specify that the interface send and receive hello packets of this level. Certainly, only one type of hello packet is sent and received on the point-to-point link. In this way, excessive processing is avoided, and the bandwidth is saved. Related commands: is-level. Example When interface Vlan-interface 1 is connected with a non-backbone router in the same area, you can set this interface as level-1, prohibiting the sending and receiving of level-2 hello packets.

value: Specify the link cost used in the SPF calculation of corresponding level. Its

range is 0 to 63 for cost-style narrow. By default, the value is 10.


level-1: indicate that the link cost corresponds to level-1. level-2: indicate that the link cost corresponds to level-2

Description

Use the isis cost command to configure the link cost of this interface when performing SPF calculation.

214

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

Use the undo isis cost command to restore the default link cost.

If neither Level 1 nor Level 2 is specified in the configuration, level-1 will be the default value. We recommend that you configure the appropriate link cost for all the interfaces. Otherwise, the link cost in the calculation of IS-IS routes cannot reflect the desired link cost. Example Set the link cost of the Level-2 link on Interface Vlan-interface 1 to 5.
[SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]isis cost 5 level-2

isis dis-priority

Syntax
isis dis-priority value [ level-1 | level-2 ] undo isis dis-priority [ level-1 | level-2 ]

View VLAN interface view Parameter


value: The priority used when selecting the designated intermediate system (DIS). Its value ranges 0 to 127, and the default priority is 64. level-1: Specify the priority when selecting level-1 DIS. level-2: Specify the priority when selecting level-2 DIS.

If the level is not specified, it defaults to setting the Level-1 priority. Description

Use the isis dis-priority command to configure the priority of an interface for the DIS election. Use the undo isis dis-priority command to restore the default priority.

The IS-IS protocol does not include the concept of a backup DIS. In addition, the router with the priority 0 can become the DIS, which is different from the DR election of OSPF. Related commands: area-authentication-mode, domain-authentication-mode. Example Set the priority of Interface Vlan-interface 1 to 127.

tag: the name given to an IS-IS routing process, when the isis command in

system view was executed. If not specified, it is null. Description

Use the isis enable command to configure the interface to activate the corresponding IS-IS routing process. Use the undo isis enable command to cancel this designation.

By default, the IS-IS routing process is not enabled on an interface. For normal operation of the IS-IS protocol, the isis command must be used to enable the IS-IS process. Then the network-entity command is used to set a Network Entity Title (NET) for the router. Finally, the isis enable command is used to enable each interface on which the IS-IS process runs. The IS-IS protocol is actually enabled upon the completion of these configurations. Related commands: isis, network-entity. Example Create an IS-IS routing process named 3Com, and activate this routing process on interface Vlan-interface 1.
[SW7700]isis 3Com [SW7700-isis]network-entity 10.0001.1010.1020.1030.00 [SW7700]interface Vlan-interface 1 [SW7700-Vlan-interface1]isis enable 3Com

mesh_group_number: Specify the mesh group number, ranging from 1 to

4294967295.
mesh-blocked: Configure to block a specified interface, so that it will not flood

the received LSP to other interfaces. Description

Use the isis mesh-group command to add an interface to a specified mesh group.

216

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

Use the undo isis mesh-group command to delete this interface from the mesh group.

By default, the interface does not belong to any mesh group and floods LSPs normally. The interface beyond the mesh group floods the received LSP to other interfaces, following the normal procedure. This processing method applies to an NBMA network with higher connectivity, where redundant, point-to-point links cause repeated LSP flooding and waste bandwidth. The interface joining a mesh group only floods the received LSP to the interfaces beyond the local mesh group. Be sure to provide some redundancy when adding an interface to a mesh group or blocking it. This will minimize the potential for a loss of routing information that can occur when there is a link failure. Example Add interface Vlan-interface 1 to mesh group 3.
[SW7700-Vlan-interface1]isis mesh-group 3

isis timer csnp

Syntax

seconds: Specify the complete sequence number packet (CSNP) packet interval

on the broadcast network, ranging from 1 to 65535 and measured in seconds. By default, the value is 10 seconds.
level-1: Specify the Level-1 CSNP packet interval. level-2: Specify the Level-2 CSNP packet interval.

Description

Use the isis timer csnp command to configure the interval of sending CSNP packets on the broadcast network. Use the undo isis timer csnp command to restore the default value, that is, 10 seconds.

Only the DIS can periodically send CSNP packets, therefore, this command is valid only for the router that is selected as the DIS. Furthermore, the DIS are elected separately for level-1 and level-2, and their intervals of sending CSNP packets must be set respectively.

Integrated IS-IS Configuration Commands

217

Example Set the CSNP packet of Level-2 to be transmitted every 15 seconds on the interface Vlan-interface 1.

View VLAN interface view Parameter


seconds: Specify the Hello failure interval for IS-IS neighbors, ranging from 9 to

65535 and measured in seconds. The default value is 30 seconds.


level-1: Specify the Hello failure interval for Level-1 IS-IS neighbors. level-2: Specify the Hello failure interval for Level-2 IS-IS neighbors.

If the level is not specified, it defaults to setting the Hello failure interval of Level-1. Description

Use the isis timer dead command to set the failure interval for an IS-IS neighbor. Use the undo isis timer dead command to restore the default setting.

For the broadcast network, you can configure the neighbor Hello failure interval of Level-1 or Level-2 separately. However, it is not necessary for point-to-point links, because only one kind of Hello packet is applied. The Hello failure interval is the hold-down time. If a router has not received a hello packet from a peer within the hold-down time, the link between the router and the peer is considered invalid. The hold-down time is based on the interface configuration, and the different routers in the same area can be configured with different hold-down values. The dead-time value that is set on router A is the hold-down time that is used by neighboring router B to decide when to tear down their peer relationship. Related command: isis timer hello. Example Set the failure interval for receiving Hello packets from an IS-IS neighbor on Vlan-interface 1 to 30s

seconds: Specify the Hello interval, ranging from 3 to 255 and measured in

seconds. The default value is 10 seconds.


level-1: Specify the Level-1 Hello interval. level-2: Specify the Level-2 Hello interval.

If the level is not specified, it defaults to Level-1. Description

Use the isis timer hello command to configure the interval for sending hello packets. Use the undo isis timer hello command to restore the default value of 10 seconds.

On a broadcast link, both level-1 and level-2 hello packets can be sent and their intervals should also be set. Such settings are unnecessary on point-to-point links. The shorter the sending interval is, the more system resources are occupied to send hello packets. Therefore, the interval should be set according to actual conditions. Related command: isis timer dead. Example Set the Level-2 Hello packet to be transmitted every 20 seconds on Interface Vlan-interface 1.

Description

Use the isis timer retransmit command to configure the LSP retransmission interval over a point-to-point link. Use the undo isis timer retransmit command to restore the default setting.

Use caution when setting this parameter to avoid unnecessary retransmission. The response is required when sending LSP packets on a point-to-point link but not on a broadcast link. This command is unnecessary for a broadcast link. Related command: isis timer lsp. Example Set the LSP retransmission interval to 10 seconds on Interface Vlan-interface 1.

routes and maintain the L1 LSDB.


level-1-2: Configure the router to operate at Level-2, calculate both the L1 and

L2 routes and maintain an L1 and L2 LSDB.


level-2: Configure the router to operate at Level-2, only flood L2 LSPs and calculate L2 routes and maintain an L2 LSDB.

Description

Use the is-level command to configure the IS-IS level. Use the undo is-level command to restore the default value.

By default, the value is level-1-2. 3Com recommends setting the system Level when you configure IS-IS. If there is only one area, you are advised to set the level of all the routers to Level-1 or Level-2, because it is not necessary for all the routers to maintain two identical databases. You are advised to set all the routers to Level-2 for convenient future extension, when applying them to an IP network. Related command: isis circuit-level. Example Set the current router to operate at Level-1.

NET: Specify the Network Entity Title in the XX.XXXX....XXXX.00 format, in which the first XX is the area address, the twelve Xs in the middle is the System ID of the router, and the 00 in the end is SEL.

Description

Use the network-entity command to configure the name of Network Entity Title (NET) of the IS-IS routing process. Use the undo network-entity command to delete a NET.

By default, the value is No NET. NET means the Network Service Access Point (NSAP). It consists of three parts. Part one is area ID, which is variable (1 to 13 bytes), and the area IDs of the routers in

222

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

the same area are identical. Part two is system ID (6 bytes) of this router, which must be unique in the whole area and backbone area. Part three, the last byte SEL, whose value must be 00. So the NET field of IS-IS is 8 to 20 bytes. Usually, one router can be configured with one NET. When the area is redesigned by combination, separation, or after reconfiguration, the correctness and uniqueness of the NETs must be ensured. Related commands: isis, isis enable. Example Specify NET as 10.0001.1010.1020.1030.00, in which the system ID is 1010.1020.1030, area ID is 10.0001.

Use the preference command to configure the preference of IS-IS protocol. Use the undo preference command to restore the default value.

Several dynamic routing protocols could run simultaneously on a router. In this case, there is an issue of sharing and selecting the routing information among all the routing protocols. The system sets a preference for each routing protocol; 1 is the highest preference and 255 the lowest. When various routing protocols find the route to the same destination, the protocol with the higher preference takes effect. Example Configure the preference of IS-IS to 25.

Use the set-overload command to set overload flag for the current router. Use the undo set-overload command to cancel the overload flag.

224

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

By default, no overload flag is set. If a router is configured with the overload flag, the routes it calculates will be ignored by other routers in SPF calculation. (However the directly connected routes will not be ignored.) And other routers should not send this router the packets which would normally be forwarded by it. Example Set overload flag on the current router.

Description

Use the silent-interface command to disable transmission of IS-IS packets on the specified interface. Use the undo silent-interface command to enable transmission of IS-IS packets.

By default, all interfaces are allowed to transmit/receive IS-IS packets. The silent-interface command is only used to suppress transmission of IS-IS packets on the interface, but the routing information for this interface will still be transmitted from other interfaces. Example Prohibit transmission of IS-IS packets to be transmitted via Interface Vlan-interface 3.

Integrated IS-IS Configuration Commands

225

Parameter
number: Specify number of routes, from 1000 to 50000, to process before releasing the CPU. The default value is 5000 routes.

Description

Use the spf-delay-interval command to configure the number of routes to process before releasing the CPU. Use the undo spf-delay-interval command to restore the default setting.

When there are a large number of routes in the routing table, this command can be used to insure that CPU resources are released after a certain number of routes are processed. Processing of the unprocessed routes continues after one second. In this way, SPF calculation does not consume system resources for a long time or degrade the response time of the console. The value of the parameter number can be adjusted according to the capacity of the routing table. If the spf-slice-size command is also configured, the SPF calculation will be paused when any limit is met. By default, the CPU is released when 5000 routes are processed. Related command: spf-slice-size. Example Set IS-IS to release CPU once after processing every 3000 routes.
[SW7700-isis]spf-delay-interval 3000

spf-slice-size

Syntax

View IS-IS view Parameter


seconds: Duration, in seconds, of one SPF calculation cycle in the range of 0 to

120. When the calculation duration time reaches or exceeds the set value, this slice of the calculation ends. If seconds is set to 0, it indicates that SPF calculation is not divided into slices and it will operate until the end. By default, the value is 0. Description

Use the spf-slice-size command to configure whether to set slice and the duration time of one cycle when IS-IS performs SPF route calculation. Use the undo spf-slice-size command to restore the default setting.

When there are a large number of routes in the routing table, this command can be used to enable the SPF calculation in slices to prevent it from occupying the system resources for an extended time.

226

CHAPTER 5: USING ROUTING PROTOCOL COMMANDS

The user is recommended to use the command when the number of routes reaches 150,000 or 200,000 and the value of seconds is recommended to be 1. In other cases, the default setting should be used, that is, SPF runs to the end with no slice. If the spf-delay-interval command is also configured, when SPF calculation is run, the SPF calculation is paused if any limit is met. Related command: spf-delay-interval. Example Set the SPF duration time to 1 second.

ip-address: Aggregated network segment address. mask: Aggregated network mask. level-1: Configure to aggregate the routes imported into Level-1. level-2: Configure to aggregate the routes imported into Level-2 routing table. level-1-2: Configure to aggregate the routes imported into Level-1 and Level-2.

Description

Use the summary command to configure IS-IS route summary. Use the undo summary command to cancel the summary.

By default, no routes are summarized. Multiple routes with a long subnet mask and the same next hop can be aggregated into one route with a shorter subnet mask. For example, 11.1.1.0/24, 11.1.2.0/24, and 11.2.0.0/16 can be aggregated into 11.0.0.0/8. In this way, the sizes of the routing table, LSP packets and LSDB are reduced. The aggregated route can be either a route found by IS-IS protocol, or an imported route. Furthermore, the cost value of the aggregated route adopts the smallest cost of the routes aggregated. Example Set a route summary of 202.0.0.0/8.

Description

Use the timer lsp-max-age command to configure the maximum lifetime of an LSP generated by the current router. Use the undo timer lsp-max-age command to restore the default value.

When the router generates an LSP for the system, it adds the maximum lifetime to it. When other routers receive this LSP, the lifetime decreases continuously as time goes. If an updated LSP has not been received before the old one times out, this LSP will be deleted from the LSDB. Related commands: timer lsp-refresh. Example Set the lifetime of an LSP generated by the current system to 25 minutes, i.e., 1500 seconds.

seconds: Specifies the SPF calculation interval, ranging from 1 to 120 and measured in seconds. The default value is 5 seconds. level-1: Sets Level-1 SPF calculation interval only. level-2: Sets Level-2 SPF calculation interval only.

If the level is not specified, it defaults to setting the Level-1 SPF calculation interval. Description

Use the timer spf command to configure the interval for the SPF calculation of corresponding level. Use the undo timer spf command to restore the system default value, that is, 5 seconds.

Usually, when the LSDB of the corresponding level is changed, an SPF calculation is required. However, when the network is unstable and the LSDB changes frequently, if the SPF calculation is performed too frequently, the system efficiency will be lowered. In a severe condition, other services will be affected. By setting a proper interval for performing the SPF calculation, you can avoid the above situation. The interval for SPF calculation should not be set too long, because a long interval will prevent the current routing table from showing the actual network condition. The setting must be made according to actual conditions. Example Set the SPF calculation interval of the router to 3 seconds.

BGP Configuration Commands

231

Confederation can be adopted to solve the problem of too many IBGP full connections in a large AS domain. The solution is, first dividing the AS domain into several smaller sub-ASs, and each sub-ASs remains full-connected. These sub-ASs form a confederation. Key IGP attributes of the route, such as next hop, MED, local preference, are not discarded across each sub-ASs. The sub-ASs still look like a whole from the point of view of a confederation although these sub-ASs have EBGP relations. This can assure the integrity of the former AS domain, and ease the problem of too many connections in the domain Related commands: confederation nonstandard, confederation peer-as. Example Confederation 9 consists of four sub-ASs, namely, 38, 39, 40 and 41. Here, the peer 10.1.1.1 is an internal member of the AS confederation while the peer 200.1.1.1 is an external member of the AS confederation. For external members, Confederation 9 is a unified AS domain.

By default, no autonomous system is configured as a member of the confederation. Before this command is performed, the confederation ID should be configured by the confederation id command. Otherwise this configuration is invalid. The configured ASs in this command are inside the confederation and each AS uses fully meshed network. The confederation appears as a single AS to the routers outside it. Related commands: confederation nonstandard, confederation id. Example Configure the confederation contains AS 2001 and 2002.

default local-preference

Syntax
default local-preference value undo default local-preference

View BGP view Parameter


value: Default local preference to be configured. The range is 0 to 4294967295. By default, its value is 100.

Description

Use the default local-preference command to configure the default local preference. Use the undo default local-preference command to restore the default value.

Configuring different local preferences will affect BGP routing selection. When a router running BGP gets routes with the same destination address but different next hops through different internal peers, it will select the route of highest local preference to this destination.

BGP Configuration Commands

235

Example The two routers RTA and RTB in the same autonomous area use X.25 and Frame Relay protocols separately to connect with external autonomous areas. The command can be used to configure the default local preference of RTB as 180 so that the route via RTB is selected first when the same route goes through RTA and RTB at the same time.

Syntax
default med med_value undo default med

View BGP view. Parameter


med_value: MED value to be specified. The range is 0 to 4294967295. By default, the med-value is 0.

Description

Use the default med command to configure the default system metric. Use the undo default med command to restore the default metric of the system.

In the case that all other conditions are the same, the system first selects the route with the smaller MED value as the external route of the autonomous system. Example Routers RTA and RTB belong to AS100 and router RTC belongs to AS200. RTC is the peer of RTA and RTB. The network between RTA and RTC is X.25 network and the network between RTB and RTC is Ethernet. So the MED of RTA can be configured as 25 to allow RTC to select the route transmitted by RTB first.

index_number: Identify an item in the prefix address list. The item with smaller

index-number will be tested first.


permit: Specify the match mode of the defined address prefix list items as permit

mode.
deny: Specify the match mode of the defined address prefix list items as deny

mode.
network: The IP address prefix range (IP address). If it is 0.0.0.0 0, all the IP addresses are matched. len: The IP address prefix range (mask length). If it is 0.0.0.0 0, all the IP addresses

are matched.
greater_equal, less_equal: The address prefix range [greater-equal, less-equal] to be matched after the address prefix network len has been matched. The meaning of greater-equal is larger than or equal to , and the meaning of less-equal is less than or equal to. The range is len <= greater-equal <= less-equal <= 32. When only greater-equal is used, it denotes the prefix range [greater-equal, 32]. When only less-equal is used, it denotes the prefix range [len, less-equal].

Description

Use the ip ip-prefix command to configure an address prefix list or one of its items. Use the undo ip ip-prefix command to delete an address prefix list or one of its items.

By default, theres no address prefix list. The address prefix list is used for IP address filtering. An address prefix list may contain several items, and each item specifies one address prefix range. The inter-item filtering relation is Boolean OR, so an item must pass the filtering of this address prefix list. Not passing the filtering of any item means not passing the filtration of this prefix address list. The address prefix range may contain two parts, which are determined by len and [greater-equal, less-equal] respectively. If the prefix ranges of these two parts are both specified, the IP to be filtered must match the prefix ranges of these two parts. If you specify network len as 0.0.0.0 0, it only matches the default route. Example The prefix address list of this address indicates to match the bits 1 to 8 and the bits 17 to 18 for filtering the IP address with the bits 1 to 8 and the bits 17 to 18 of the specified IP network segment 10.0.192.0.

used for routing information filtration, the node with smaller node-number will be tested first. Description

Use the route-policy command to create and enter the Route-policy view. Use the undo route-policy command to delete the established Route-policy.

By default, no Route-policy is defined. The route-policy command is used for route information filtration or route policy. One Route-policy comprises some nodes and each node comprises some match and apply sub-statements. The match sub-statement defines the match rules of this node and the apply sub-statement defines the actions after passing the filtration of this node. The filtering relationship between the match sub-statements of the node is and, that is, all match sub-statements that meet the node. The filtering relation between route-policy nodes is Boolean OR, so to pass the filtering, a node must pass the filtering of this Route-policy. If the information does not pass the filtering of any nodes, it cannot pass the filtering of this route-policy. Related commands: if-match interface, if-match acl, if-match ip-prefix, if-match ip next-hop, if-match cost, if-match tag, apply ip next-hop, apply local-preference, apply cost, apply origin, apply tag. Example Configured one Route-policy policy1, whose node number is 10 and if-match mode is permit, and enter Route policy view.

memory auto-establish disable

View System view Parameter None Description Use the memory auto-establish disable command to disable the routing protocol connection that is forcibly disconnected to recover automatically when the idle memory of the Ethernet switch reaches this value. Thus, connections of all the routing protocols will not recover when the idle memory of the Ethernet switch recovers to a safety value. In this case, you need to restart the routing protocol to recover the connections. By default, when the idle memory of the Ethernet switch recovers to a safety value, connections of all the routing protocols will always recover (when the idle memory of the Ethernet switch reduces to a lower limit, the connection will be disconnected forcibly). Use this command cautiously. Related commands: memory auto-establish enable, memory { safety | limit }, display memory limit.

default: Set the safety value and lower limit of the Ethernet switch idle memory

to the default value. Description

Use the memory limit limit_value command to configure the lower limit of the Ethernet switch idle memory. When the idle memory of the Ethernet switch is less than this limit, all the routing protocol connections will be disconnected forcibly. The limit_value in the command must be less than the current idle memory safety value or the configuration will fail. Use the memory safety safety_value command to configure the safety value of the Ethernet switch idle memory. If you use the memory auto-establish enable command (the default configuration), the routing protocol connection that is forcibly disconnected will automatically recover when the idle memory of the Ethernet switch reaches this value. The safety_value in the command must be more than the current idle memory lower limit or the configuration will fail. Use the memory safety safety_value limit limit_value command to change both of the safety value and lower limit of the Ethernet switch idle memory. The safety_value must be more than the limit_value or the configuration will fail.

seconds: Time interval before IGMP query router sends the IGMP group query message after it receives the IGMP Leave message from the host. It is in the range of 1 to 5 seconds. By default, it is 1 second.

Description

Use the igmp lastmember-queryinterval command to set the time interval before IGMP query router sends the IGMP group query message after it receives the IGMP Leave message from the host. Use the undo igmp lastmember-queryinterval command to restore the default value.

In the shared network, that is, a same network segment including multiple hosts and multicast routers, the query router is responsible for maintaining the IGMP group membership on the interface. When the IGMP v2 host leaves a group, it sends a IGMP Leave message. When receiving the IGMP Leave message, the IGMP query router must send the IGMP group query message for a specified number of times (by the robust-value parameter in the igmp robust-count command, with default value as 2) in a specified time interval (by the seconds parameter in the igmp lastmember-queryinterval command, with default value as 1 second). If other hosts which are interested in the specified group receive the IGMP query message from the IGMP query router, they send back the IGMP Membership Report message within the specified maximum response time interval. If it receives the IGMP Membership Report message within the defined period (equal to robust-value seconds), the IGMP query router continue to maintain the membership of this group. When receiving no IGMP Membership Report message from any hosts within the defined period, the IGMP query router considers it a timeout and stops membership maintenance for the group. This command is only available on the IGMP query router running IGMP v2. For the host running IGMP v1, this command cannot take effect because the host cannot send the IGMP Leave message when it leaves a group. Related command: igmp robust-count and display igmp interface. Example Set the query interval on Vlan-interface10 as 3 seconds.

group membership on the interface. When the IGMP v2 host leaves a group, it sends a IGMP Leave message. When receiving the IGMP Leave message, the IGMP query router must send the IGMP group query message for specified times (by the robust-value parameter in the igmp robust-count command, with default value as 2) in a specified time interval (by the seconds parameter in the igmp lastmember-queryinterval command, with default value as 1 second). If other hosts which are interested in the specified group receive the IGMP query message from the IGMP query router, they will send back the IGMP Membership Report message within the specified maximum response time interval. If it receives the IGMP Membership Report message within the defined period (equal to robust-value seconds), the IGMP query router continue to maintain the membership of this group. When receiving no IGMP Membership Report message from any hosts within the defined period, the IGMP query router considers it as timeout and stops membership maintenance for the group. This command is only available on the IGMP query router running IGMP v2. For the host running IGMP v1, this command cannot take effect for the host may not send the IGMP Leave message when it leaves a group. Related command: igmp lastmember-queryinterval and display igmp

seconds: IGMP querier present timer value in second ranging from 1 to 131070. By default, the value is twice the value of IGMP query message interval, i.e., 120 seconds.

Description Use the igmp timer other-querier-present command to configure the timer of presence of the IGMP querier. Use the undo igmp timer other-querier-present command to restore the default value. On a shared network, where there are multiple multicast routers on the same network segment, the query router (querier for short) takes charge of sending query messages periodically on the interface. If other non-queriers receive no query messages within the valid period, the router will consider the previous query to be invalid and the router itself becomes a querier.

bsr-policy

This section describes how to use the Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) configuration commands on your Switch 7700. Syntax
bsr-policy acl-number undo bsr-policy

View PIM view Parameter


acl-number: ACL number imported in BSR filtering policy, in the range of 2000 to

2999. Description

Use the bsr-policy command to limit the range of legal BSRs to prevent BSR proofing. Use the undo bsr-policy command to restore the default setting so that no range limit is set and all received messages are taken as legal.

In the PIM SM network using BSR (bootstrap router) mechanism, every router can set itself as C-BSR (candidate BSR) and take the authority to advertise RP information in the network once it wins in the contention. To prevent malicious BSR proofing in the network, the following two measures need to be taken:

Prevent the router from being spoofed by hosts though faking legal BSR messages to modify RP mapping. BSR messages are of multicast type and their TTL is 1, so this type of attacks often hit edge routers. Fortunately, BSRs are inside the network, while assaulting hosts are outside, therefore neighbor and RPF checks can be used to stop this type of attacks. If a router in the network is manipulated by an attacker, or an illegal router is accessed into the network, the attacker may set itself as C-BSR and try to win the contention and gain authority to advertise RP information among the network. Since the router configured as C-BSR shall propagate BSR messages, which are multicast messages sent hop by hop with TTL as 1, among the network, then the network cannot be affected as long as the peer routers do not receive these BSR messages. One way is to configure bsr-policy on each router to limit legal BSR range, for example, only 1.1.1.1/32 and 1.1.1.2/32 can be BSR, thus the routers cannot receive or forward BSR messages other than these two. Even legal BSRs cannot contest with them.

Problems may still exist if a legal BSR is attacked, though these two measures can effectively guarantee high BSR security. The source parameter in the rule command is translated as BSR address in the bsr-policy command. Related commands: acl and rule

c-bsr

Syntax
c-bsr interface-type interface-number hash-mask-len [ priority ] undo c-bsr

View PIM view Parameter


interface-type interface-number: Interface type and interface number of a router. The candidate BSR is configured on the interface. PIM-SM must be enabled on the interface first. hash-mask-len: Length of the mask. The value ranges from 0 to 32. priority: Priority of the candidate BSR. The larger the value of the priority, the

higher the priority of the BSR. The value ranges from 0 to 255. The default value is 0. Description

Use the c-bsr to configure a candidate BSR. Use the undo c-bsr to remove the candidate BSR configured.

By default, no candidate BSR is set. When using this command to configure the candidate BSR, the larger bandwidth should be guaranteed since a great amount of information will be exchanged between BSR and other devices in the PIM domain. Related command: pim sm. Example Configure the Ethernet switch as C-BSR with priority 2 (and the C-BSR address is designated as the IP address of VLAN-interface10).

interface-type interface-number: Specified interface with the IP address

advertised as a candidate RP address.


acl-number: Number of the basic ACL that defines a group range, which is the

service range of the advertised RP. The value ranges from 2000 to 2999.
priority-value: Priority value of candidate RP, in the range of 0 to 255. By default, it is 0. The greatest value corresponds to the lowest priority level all: Remove all candidate RP configurations.

Description

Use the c-rp to configure the router to advertise itself as a candidate RP. Use the undo c-rp to remove the configuration.

By default, no candidate RP is configured. When configuring the candidate RP, a relatively large bandwidth should be reserved for the router and other devices in the PIM domain. Related command: c-bsr. Example Configure the Switch 7700 to advertise to the BSR that it is the C-RP in the PIM. The standard ACL 2005 defines the groups related to the RP. The address of C-RP is designated as the IP address of VLAN-interface10.

crp-policy

Syntax
crp-policy acl-number undo crp-policy

View PIM view Parameter


acl-number: ACL number imported in C-RP filtering policy, ranging from 2000 to

2999. Description

Use the crp-policy command to limit the range of legal C-RP, as well as target service group range of each C-RP, prevent C-RP proofing.

318

CHAPTER 6: USING MULTICAST PROTOCOL COMMANDS

Use the undo crp-policy command to restore the default setting so that no range limit is set and all received messages are taken as legal.

In the PIM SM network using BSR mechanism, every router can set itself as C-RP (candidate rendezvous point) servicing particular groups. If elected, a C-RP becomes the RP servicing the current group. In BSR mechanism, a C-RP router unicasts C-RP messages to the BSR, which then propagates the C-RP messages among the network by BSR message. To prevent C-RP spoofing, you need to configure crp-policy on the BSR to limit legal C-RP range and their service group range. Since each C-BSR has the chance to become BSR, you must configure the same filtering policy on each C-BSR router. This command uses the ACLs numbered between 2000 and 2999. The source parameter in the rule command is translated as C-RP address in the crp-policy command, and the destination parameter as the service group range of this C-RP address. For the C-RP messages received, only when their C-RP addresses match the source address and their server group addresses are subset of those in ACL, can the be considered as matched. Related commands: acl and rule Example Configure C-RP filtering policy on the C-BSR routers, allowing only 1.1.1.1/32 as C-RP and to serve only for the groups 225.1.0.0/16.

CHAPTER 6: USING MULTICAST PROTOCOL COMMANDS

null: Specifies the incoming interface of the route entry as null.

Description

Use the reset pim routing-table command to clear a PIM route entry.

You can type in source-address first and group-address after in the command, as long as they are valid. Error information will be given if you type in invalid addresses. If in this command, the group-address is 224.0.0.0/24 and source-address is the RP address (where group address can have a mask, but the resulted IP address must be 224.0.0.0, and source address has no mask), then it means only the (*, *, RP) item will be cleared. If in this command, the group-address is any a group address, and source-address is 0 (where group address can have a mask, and source address has no mask), then only the (*, G) item will be cleared. This command clears multicast route entries from PIM routing table, as well as the corresponding route entries and forward entries in the multicast core routing table and MFC. Related commands: reset multicast routing-table, reset multicast forwarding-table and display pim routing-table. Example Clear the route entries with group address 225.5.4.3 from the PIM routing table.

View PIM view Parameter


rp-address: Static RP address, only being legal unicast IP address. acl-number: Basic ACL, used to control the range of the multicast group served

by the static RP, which ranges from 2000 to 2999. If an ACL is not specified at configuration, static RP will serve all multicast groups; if an ACL is specified, static RP will only serve the multicast group passing the ACL. Description

Use the static-rp command to configure static RP. Use the undo static-rp command to remove the configuration.

Static RP functions as the backup of dynamic RP so as to improve the network robustness. If the RP elected by BSR mechanism is valid, static RP will not work. All routers in the PIM domain should be configured with this command and be specified with the same RP address. The new configuration overwrites the old one if you run the command for a second time.

number acl-number: ACL number, ranging from: 2000 to 2999: Basic ACL. 3000 to 3999: Advanced ACL. 4000 to 4999: Layer-2 ACL. 5000 to 5999: User defined ACL name acl-name: Specifies an ACL with a character string, beginning with English letters [a-z, A-Z] only, excluding space and quotation marks, and not case sensitive. The all and any keywords are not allowed. advanced: Advanced ACL. basic: Basic ACL. link: Layer-2 ACL.

user: User-defined ACL.

ACL Configuration Command List

333

auto: Follow the depth-first order to match ACL rules. all ( for the undo command): Configures to delete all the ACLs (including

numbered and named ACLs). Description

Use the acl command to configure a numbered or named ACL, and enter the corresponding ACL view. Use the undo acl command to cancel all the rules of a numbered or named ACL or all the ACLs.

By default, the ACLs are matched in config order. Use the acl command to create an ACL and specify its name with acl-name and its type with the keywords advanced, basic, user, or link. For both numbered and named ACL, you can use the rule command to add rules for them after entering ACL view. (Use the quit command to exit ACL view.) An ACL may contain multiple rules and the traffic classification rules concern different ranges, which brings forward the issue of match order when a data packet matches more than one rule. Use the match-order command to follow the user configuration order (as defaulted) or depth-first order (matching the rule with smaller range first) to match the rules. After specifying the match order of an ACL, you cannot change it, unless you delete all its rules and specify the order again. Note that the match order is user defined and can only be effective for the data that is treated by the software of the switch. On the Switch 7700, each ASIC supports up to 128 ACLs. Therefore, on a 7- or 8-slot chassis, with six 48-port I/O modules (and two ASICS on each module), you can configure up to 1536 ACLs. On a 4-slot chassis, with three 48-port I/O modules, you can configure up to 768 ACLs. For related configurations, refer to the command rule. User-defined ACLs can only be activated on the 20-Port 10/100/1000BASE-T, 20-port 1000BASE-X-SFP, and 1-port 10GBASE-R-XENPAK I/O modules. Example Configure to follow depth-first order to match the rules of ACL 2000.

rule-id: Specifies a rule of an ACL with a number in the range of 0 to 127. permit: Indicates to let the matched packets through. deny: Indicates to reject the matched packets to pass through. time-range name: Name of a time range, during which a rule takes effect.

The following parameters are attributes carried by the data packets. The ACL rules are defined according to the values of these parameters.

Parameters for a basic ACL:

source-addr source-wildcard | any: source-addr source-wildcard is the

source IP address and source address wildcard, expressed in dotted decimal notation. any represents any source address.
fragment: Indicates that the rule takes effect on fragmented packets only and will be ignored for other packets.

Parameters for an advanced ACL:

protocol: This parameter is to define protocol type, which can be indicated by

name, or digit. This parameter can be icmp, igmp, tcp, udp, ip, gre, ospf or ipinip. If this parameter takes ip, it means all the IP protocols. This parameter can be 1 ~ 255 if indicated by digit.
source source-addr source-wildcard | any: source-addr source-wildcard is the source IP address and source address wildcard, expressed in dotted decimal notation. any represents any source address. destination dest-addr dest-wildcard | any: dest-addr dest-wildcard is

the destination IP address and destination address wildcard, expressed in dotted decimal notation. any represents any destination address.

340

CHAPTER 7: USING QOS/ACL COMMANDS

source-port operator port1 [ port2 ]: This parameter is to define the source TCP or UDP port number. Here, operator represents port operation character,

including eq (equal to), gt (greater than), lt (less than), neq (not equal to), and range (in certain range). This parameter is available only when protocol parameter takes TCP or UDP. port1 [ port2 ]: TCP or UDP port number of packets, expressed with characters or numbers. The numbers are in the range of 0 to 65535 and refer to mnemonic symbol table for character values.
destination-port operator port1 [ port2 ]: This parameter is to define the destination TCP or UDP port number. The meaning of operator port1 [port2] is same as upper parameter. icmp-type type-code: Used when protocol is specified as icmp. icmp-type icmp-code specifies an ICMP packet. icmp-type specifies the ICMP packet type with a number in the range of 0 to 255 or characters. icmp-code, ranging from 0

to 255, is used for icmp when the ICMP packet type is not specified with characters.
established: Used when protocol is tcp to indicate that the rule takes effect on the first SYN packet to establish TCP connection. precedence precedence: Specifies IP precedence with a number in the range of

0 to 7 or a name.
dscp dscp: Classifies the data packets with a number in the range of 0 to 63 or a

name.
tos tos: Classifies the data packets with a number in the range of 0 to 15 or a

name.
fragment: Indicates that the rule takes effect on fragmented packets only and will be ignored for other packets.

The switch does not support to deliver rules that configured with icmp-type type code, tos tos, fragment parameters to hardware. The TCP/UDP port number has the following restrictions:

The operator gt means the port number is greater than a specified port number. The parameter after gt can only be 32767, that is to designate port number within the range of [32768,65535] ( or notated as 32768-65535). The operator lt means the port number is less than a specified port number. The parameter after lt can only be the nth power of 2, i.e., 2^n ( neN, ne[1,15] ), for instance: lt 2, lt 512. If the operator is neg, the system delivery will fail and prompt Not support!, because the chip does not support the operator neg. If the operator is range, the system will deliver normally only when the sequent parameters port 1 and port 2 meet the following requirements (suppose that: port-range= port2-port1+1): port-range must be the power of 2. port1 must be the integral multiple of port-range.

ACL Configuration Command List

341

Parameters for a Layer 2 ACL:

protocol-type: (Optional) Protocol type carried by Ethernet frame, can be:ip,

arp, rarp, ipx, nbx. ARP packets are allowed to pass by default on the Switch 7700. You cannot configure filtering of ARP packets. If you have configured to choose ARP as the protocol type when defining Layer2 ACL rules, you cannot activate this ACL to make it effective by using the packet-filter command. format-type: 802.3/802.2, 802.3, ether_ii, snap.
ingress { { source-vlan-id | source-mac-addr }* | any }: The source information of a packet, source-vlan-id represents source VLAN of the packet, source-mac-addr represents source MAC address of the packet, any represents

all the packets received from all ports.


egress { dest-mac-addr | any }: The destination information of a packet, dest-mac-addr represents the packet's destination MAC address. any represents

all the packets forwarded from all ports.

Parameters for user-defined ACL

{ rule-string rule-mask offset }&<1-8>: rule-string is a character string

of a rule defined by a user. It only consists of hexadecimal numbers of even digits. rule-mask offset is used to extract the packet information. Here, rule-mask is rule mask, used for logical AND operation with data packets, and offset determines to perform AND operation from which bytes apart from the packet header. rule-mask offset extracts a character string from the packet and compares it with the user-defined rule-string to get and process the matched packets. &<1-8> indicates that you can define up to 8 such rules at a time. Description

Use the rule command to add a subrule to an ACL. Use the undo rule command to cancel a subrule from an ACL.

You can define several subrules for an ACL. If you include parameters when using the undo rule command, the system only deletes the corresponding content of the subrule. Related command: acl Example Add a rule to an advanced ACL.

CHAPTER 7: USING QOS/ACL COMMANDS

Description

Use the mirroring-group command to configure the mirroring group of the switch. Use the undo mirroring-group command to cancel the configuration of mirroring group.

The Switch 7700 implements the mirroring function by configuring a mirroring group. Every mirroring group has one monitor port and a group of monitored ports. The packets received or sent by monitored ports will monitored by monitor port. The direction of the monitored packets can be also specified. A port mirroring configuration has the following limitations:

The monitor port and the monitored ports must be the ports in the same interface card. For the 48-ports FE interface card, the monitor port and the monitored ports must be within port 1 to port 24 or within port 25 to port 48.

Example Configure mirroring group 1, ethernet3/0/1 to ethernet3/0/3 as the monitored port, ethernet3/0/4 as monitor port, and receiving packets at the ports will be monitored.

priority

Syntax
priority priority-level undo priority

View Ethernet Port views Parameter


priority-level: Specifies the priority level of the port, ranging from 0 to 7.

Description

Use the priority command to configure the priority of Ethernet port. Use the undo priority command to restore the default port priority.

By default, the priority level of the port is 0. If an untagged packet is received on the port, the switch tags the packet and assigns a 802.1p priority which matches the port's priority setting. When the packet is transmitted it assumes the 802.1Q characteristics of the transmitting port. If the transmitting port is tagged 801.Q, the packet retains the 802.1p priority it received from the inbound port. If the transmitting port is not tagged 802.1Q, the packet is transmitted with no 802.1Q tag and no 802.1p priority.

QoS Configuration Commands List

351

If a tagged packet is received on the port with or without 802.1p priority, no action is taken and the priority is carried through the switch. If the transmitting port is tagged 801.Q, the packet is transmitted with its original 802.1p priority. If the transmitting port is not tagged 802.1Q, the packet is transmitted with no 802.1Q tag and no 802.1p priority. Example Set the priority of Ethernet1/0/1 port to 7.

dscp: Sets the queue scheduling based on dscp priority. ip-precedence: Sets the queue scheduling based on IP precedence. cos: Sets the queue scheduling based on cos priority. local-precedence: Sets the queue scheduling based on local-precedence.

Description Use the priority trust command to add the packet to the corresponding sending queue based on the priority set for queue scheduling. By default, switch chooses the local preference as the base priority. This command is not supported by the 20-Port 10/100/1000BASE-T, 20-port 1000BASE-X-SFP, and 1-port 10GBASE-R-XENPAK modules. For these modules, the packets are added to the port output queue by 802.1p priority only. The Switch 7700 only supports strict precedence queue scheduling mode, but it can choose different levels of precedence when it puts the packets into the port output queue. The Switch 7700 supports 8 output queues with different priorities. The packets in the higher-priority queue will be transmitted first. The switch puts the packets into the corresponding output queues according to their priorities as follows: 1 Based on dscp priority: The dscp priorities cover the range from 0 to 63. The packets with priorities ranging from 0 to 7 will be put into the queue 0, the packets with priorities ranging from 8 to 15 will be put into the queue 1, so on and so forth. 2 Based on ip-precedence: The ip-precedence cover the range from 0 to 15. The packets with priorities ranging from 0 to 1 will be put into the queue 0, the packets with priorities ranging from 2 to 3 will be put into the queue 1, so on and so forth.

CHAPTER 7: USING QOS/ACL COMMANDS

3 Based on cos priority: The cos priorities cover the range from 0 to 7. The packets with priority 0 will be put into the queue 0, so on and so forth. 4 Based on local-precedence: The local-precedence priorities cover the range from 0 to 7. The packets with priority 0 will be put in the queue 0, so on and so forth. You can configure the packet priority basis for the queue scheduling in accordance with the actual situation. Example Configure the queue scheduling based on dscp priority.

max-guaranteed-bandwidth: Sets the maximum bandwidth in the unit of Kbit/s,

ranging from 0 to 8388608. The value must be multiple of 64kbit/s.


weight: Bandwidth weight, ranging from 1 to 100. The value indicates the percentage of bandwidth weight. The weight parameter is used for a case in

which there are many traffic streams on one port. For example, if there are two traffic streams on one port, the minimum bandwidths are both set to 2M, the maximum bandwidths are both set to 8M, one stream weight is set to 40%, other is set to 80%, and the port bandwidth is 10M. So the port cant satisfy the requirement of the total maximum bandwidth of 16M. After assurance the minimum bandwidth of the two traffic streams, the port remains 6 M bandwidth. If the bandwidths demanded by the two traffic streams do not exceed the minimum bandwidth configured, the bandwidth of the two traffic streams are the actual bandwidth they demand. If the bandwidths demanded by the two traffic streams exceed the minimum bandwidth configured, the 6M bandwidth will distribute to the two traffic streams according the ratio of weight (40%:80%=1:2). Supposing the bandwidth of the first traffic demand is A, the bandwidth of the second traffic demand is B, then A=2M+ (10M-2*2M)*40%/(40%+80%)=4M, B=2M+ (10M-2*2M)*80%/(40%+80%)=6M. The case that many traffic configured on the port: suppose there are N traffic streams on the port, the port bandwidth is Bp, the minimum bandwidth of i traffic streatm is Bimin, the maximum bandwidth of i traffic stream is Bimax, and weight is Wi. If the bandwidths demanded by the traffic streams exceed the minimum bandwidth configured and the sum of Bimax exceeds Bp, the actual bandwidth of i traffic stream Bi= Bimin+(Bp-)*Wi/. Description

Use the traffic-bandwidth command to reserve QoS bandwidth. Use the undo traffic-bandwidth command to cancel the reserved QoS bandwidth.

This command assures the specified traffic stream the minimum bandwidth and maximum bandwidth and configures a weight parameter.

MSTP Configuration Commands

This section describes how to use the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) configuration commands on your Switch 7700. Cisco products adopt a private key to encrypt the configuration digest of MSTP, therefore the link between Cisco products and the Switch 7700 defaults to RSTP.

active region-configuration

Syntax
active region-configuration

View MST region view Parameter None Description Use the active region-configuration command to activate the configurations of MST region. This command is used for manually activate the configurations of MST region. Configuring the related parameters, especially the VLAN mapping table, of the MST region, will lead to the recalculation of spanning tree and network topology flapping. To bate such flapping, MSTP applies the configured parameters and launches recalculation of the spanning tree only when you activate the configured MST region parameters or enable MSTP. After you have entered this command, MSTP will apply the MST region parameters that you configured to the system and recalculate the spanning tree. Related commands: instance, region-name, revision-level, vlan-mapping modulo, check region-configuration. Example Manually activate MST region configurations.

check region-configuration

Syntax
check region-configuration

View MST region view Parameter None Description Use the check region-configuration command to view the configuration information (including switch region name, revision level, and VLAN mapping table) that is to be activated. MSTP defines that the user must ensure the correct region configurations, especially the VLAN mapping table configuration. The switches can be configured in the same region only if their region names, VLAN mapping tables, and MSTP revision levels are configured exactly the same. The switch may not be configured in the expected region due to any slight deviation. You can use this command to display the MST region configuration information to be activated to know to which MST regions the switch belongs and check if the MST region configurations are correct. Related commands: instance, region-name, revision-level, vlan-mapping modulo, active region-configuration. Example Display the configuration information about the region.

instance-id: Specifies the spanning tree instance ID, ranging from 0 to 16. vlan-list: Specifies the VLAN list, ranging from 1 to 4094.

Description

Use the instance command to map the specified VLAN list to the specified STI. Use the undo instance command to cancel the specified VLAN list from the specified STI, the removed VLAN will then be mapped to the CIST (that is, the Instance 0). If no VLAN is specified in the undo command, all the VLANs associated with the specified STI will be mapped to CIST.

By default, all the VLANs are mapped to CIST, that is, the Instance 0. MSTP describes the association between VLANs and STIs with the VLAN mapping table. You can use this command to configure this table. Every VLAN can be mapped to an STI as per your configuration. A VLAN cannot be mapped to different instances at the same time. The latter configured association will replace the former one. Related commands: region-name, revision-level, check region-configuration, vlan-mapping modulo, active region-configuration.

Description

Use the stp command to enable or disable MSTP on a device or a port. Use the undo stp command to restore the default MSTP state on a device or a port.

By default, MSTP is disabled on the switch. After MSTP is enabled, the switch determines to run MSTP in STP-compatible mode or MSTP mode per your configurations. The switch serves as a transparent bridge after MSTP is disabled. After MSTP is enabled, it will dynamically maintain the spanning tree state of the corresponding VLAN according to the received configuration BPDU until it is disabled. Related commands: stp mode, stp interface. Example Enable MSTP globally.

Use the stp bpdu-protection command to enable the BPDU protection on the switch. Use the undo stp bpdu-protection command to restore the default state of BPDU protection.

By default, BPDU protection is disabled.

378

CHAPTER 8: USING STP COMMANDS

Generally, the access ports of the access layer devices are directly connected to user terminals (such as a PC) or file servers. In this case, the access ports are set to edge ports to implement a fast state transition. However, when such access ports receive configuration BPDU, the system automatically sets them to non-edge ports and recalculates the spanning tree, which makes the network topology flap. These ports do not receive any STP configuration BPDU in normal cases. If someone maliciously attacks the switch with fake configuration BPDU, the network will flap. MSTP provides BPDU protection function to avoid an attack. After being configured with BPDU protection, the switch disables the edge port through MSTP, which receives a BPDU, and notifies the network manager at the same time. These ports can be reenabled by the network manager only. Example Enable BPDU protection on the switch.

stp bridge-diameter

Syntax
stp bridge-diameter bridgenum undo stp bridge-diameter

View System view Parameter


bridgenum: Ranges from 2 to 7 and defaults to 7.

Description

Use the stp bridge-diameter command to configure the switching network diameter. Use the undo stp bridge-diameter command to restore the default network diameter.

The network diameter refers to the maximum count of switches on the path between any two terminal devices. The stp bridge-diameter command configures the switching network diameter and determines the three MSTP time parameters hello time, forward delay, and max age. This configuration takes effect on CIST only but makes no change for MSTI. The spanning tree convergence can be speeded up, when Hello Time, Forward Delay, and Max Age are well configured. These parameters are related to the network scale. You can configure the network scale to get the time parameters. Upon the user-configured bridge-diameter parameter, MSTP will automatically set Hello Time, Forward Delay, and Max Age to moderate values. When bridge-diameter defaults to 7, the time parameters also take their respective default values.

enable: Configure the current port as an edge port. disable: Configure the current port as a non-edge port.

Description

Use the stp edged-port enable command to configure the current Ethernet port as an edge port. Use the stp edged-port disable command to configure the current Ethernet port as a non-edge port. Use the undo stp edged-port command to restore the default state, that is, non-edge port.

By default, all the switch ports are configured as non-edge port. If the current Ethernet port is connected to other switch, you can use the stp edged-port disable or no stp edged-port command to configure it as a non-edge port. The stp edged-port enable command is used for configuring the port as an edge port. A port is considered as an edge port when it is directly connected to the user terminal, instead of any other switches or shared network segments. The edge port will not cause loop upon network topology changes. You can configure a port as an edge port, so that it can transit to forwarding state fast. For this purpose, please configure the Ethernet port directly connected to the user terminal as an edge port. Because the edge port is not connected to any other switches, it will not receive the configuration BPDUs from them. Before BPDU PROTECTION is enabled on the switch, the port received a BPDU runs as a non-edge port, even if it is configured as edge port. Related command: stp interface edged-port. Example Configure Ethernet5/0/1 as an edge port.

stp instance cost

Syntax

View Ethernet port view Parameter


instance instance-id: Specifies the spanning tree instance ID, ranging from 0 to 16. The Instance 0 represents CIST. cost cost: Specifies the port path cost, ranging from 1 to 200000.

Description

Use the stp instance cost command to configure the port path cost on the specified STI for the current port. Use the undo stp instance cost command to restore the path cost on the specified STI.

By default, the path costs of a port on different STIs take the values associated with the port speeds. For more description, refer to the table offered in the configuration guideline of the stp interface instance cost command. You may specify the instance-id parameter as 0 to configure CIST path cost of the port. The path cost has effect on the port role selection. A port can be configured with different path costs on different MSTIs. Thus the traffic from different VLANs can run over different physical links, thereby implementing the VLAN-based load-balancing. MSTP will recalculate the port role and transit its state, upon the port path cost changes. Related commands: stp interface instance cost. Example Set the path cost of Ethernet5/0/3 on STI 2 to 200.

a step length of 16, e.g., 0, 16, and 32. By default, the priorities of a port on the STIs are 128. Description

Use the stp instance port priority command to configure the priority of a port on a specified STI. Use the undo stp instance port priority command to restore the default priority of the port on the specified STI.

You may specify the instance-id parameter as 0 to configure CIST priority of the port. The port priority has effect on the port role selection. A port can be configured with different priorities on different MSTIs. Thus the traffic from different VLANs can run over different physical links, thereby implementing the VLAN-based load-balancing. MSTP will recalculate the port role and transit its state, upon the port priority changes. Related command: stp interface instance port priority.

hello-time centi-seconds: Specifies the Hello Time of the spanning tree,

ranging from 100 to 1000 and measured in centiseconds. Description

Use the stp instance root primary command to configure the current switch as the primary root of the designated STI. Use the undo stp instance root command to cancel the current switch for the primary root of the designated STI.

382

CHAPTER 8: USING STP COMMANDS

By default, the switch does not server as a root bridge. You can configure a root bridge for every STI without concerning the switch priority. When configuring the root bridge, you may also specify the network diameter of the designated switching network, so that the switch will calculate and get three time parameter values (Hello time, Forward Delay and Max Age). The Hello time got in this way may not be as good as expected. You can specify the hello-time centi-seconds parameter to overwrite it. Normally, you are recommended to set the network diameter to get the other two time parameter of the switch accordingly. CAUTION: In a switching network, you can configure only one root bridge for each STI and one or more secondary switches. Do not configure more than one root bridge for an STI at the same time, otherwise, the calculation result will be unpredictable. After a switch is configured as primary root switch or secondary root switch, you cannot modify the bridge priority of the switch. Example Designate the current switch as the root bridge of STI 1 and specifies the diameter of the switching network as 4 and the Hello Time as 500 centiseconds:
[SW7700]stp instance 1 root primary bridge-diameter 4 hello-time 500

Use the stp instance root secondary command to configure the current switch as the secondary root bridge of a specified STI. Use the undo stp instance root command to cancel the current switch for the secondary root bridge of a specified STI.

By default, the switch does not server as a secondary root bridge.

MSTP Configuration Commands

383

You can configure one or more secondary root bridges in an STI. If the primary root is down or powered off, the secondary root will take its place. Among several secondary root bridges, the one with the smallest MAC address takes the place of the failed primary root. When configuring the secondary root bridge, you may also specify the switching network diameter and the Hello Time of the switch, so that the other two parameters, Forward Delay and Max Age, of the switch can be determined. After a switch is configured as primary root switch or secondary root switch, you cannot modify the bridge priority of the switch. Example Configure the current switch as the secondary root bridge of STI 4 and specify the diameter of the switching network as 5 and the Hello Time of the switch as 300 centiseconds.:

interface-list: Ethernet port list, containing multiple Ethernet ports and expressed as interface _list = { { interface_type interface_num | interface_name } [ to { interface_type interface_num | interface_name } ] }&<1-10>. For detail descriptions of interface_type, interface_num and interface_name parameters, refer to the corresponding descriptions in Using Port Commands on page 49. &<1-10> means that the preceding parameters can be entered up to 10 times. instance instance-id: Specifies the spanning tree instance ID, ranging from 0

to 16. The Instance 0 represents CIST.


cost cost: Specifies the path cost of the port, ranging from 1 to 200000.

Description

Use the stp interface instance cost command to configure the path cost of the specified port on the specified STI in system view.,. Use the undo stp interface instance cost command to restore the path cost to default value.

By default, the path cost of the port on every STI is associated with the port speed. For details, refer to the table in the configuration guideline. You may specify the instance-id parameter as 0 to configure CIST path cost of the port. The path cost has effect on the port role selection. A port can be configured with different path costs on different MSTIs. Thus the traffic from different VLANs can run over different physical links, thereby implementing the VLAN-based load-balancing. MSTP will recalculate the port role and transit its state, upon the port path cost changes. The default values of the path cost varies with the different port speeds, as described in the following table.

Description Use the stp interface mcheck command to perform an mcheck operation on the port in system view. If a port of an MSTP switch on a switching network has ever been connected to an STP switch, the port will automatically transit to operate in STP-compatible mode. However, when the STP switch is removed, the port stays in STP-compatible mode and cannot automatically transit back to MSTP mode. In this case, you can perform the mcheck operation to transit the port to MSTP mode by force. Related command: stp mcheck, stp mode. Example Set mcheck parameter of Ethernet5/0/3 in system view.

The master ports of the link aggregation and the ports operating in full-duplex mode are connected to the point-to-point link. You are recommended to keep the default settings and let MSTP detect the link state automatically. This configuration takes effect on the CIST and all the MSTIs. The settings of a port whether to connect the point-to-point link will be applied to all the STIs where the port belongs.

Description

Use the stp interface root-protection command to enable Root protection on the switch in system view. Use the undo stp interface root-protection command to restore the default Root protection state.

By default, Root protection is disabled. In case of configuration error or malicious attack, the legal primary root may receive the BPDU with a higher priority and then loose its place, which causes network topology change errors. Due to the illegal change, the traffic supposed to travel over the high-speed link may be pulled to the low-speed link and congestion will occur on the network. Root protection function is used against such problem. The port configured with Root protection only plays a role of designated port on every instance. Whenever such port receives a higher-priority BPDU, that is, it is about to turn into non-designated port, it will be set to listening state and not forward packets any more (as if the link to the port is disconnected). If the port has not received any

Use the stp interface transit-limit command to configure an amount limit to the configuration BPDU transmitted via a port during the Hello Time in system view. Use the undo stp interface transit-limit command to restore the default limit in system view.

The larger the value is, the more packets can be transmitted in a time unit, yet the more switch resources will be occupied. With a moderate value, the amount of the BPDUs transmitted during Hello Time via every port can be limited and MSTP will not occupy too many bandwidth resources when the network topology flaps.

Hops is 20. Description

Use the stp max-hops command, you can configure the Max Hops of an MST region. Use the undo stp max-hops command to restore the default Max Hops.

On CIST and MSTIs, the Max Hops configured on the region root determines the max switching network diameter supported by the local MST region. As the BPDU traveling from the spanning tree root, each time when it is forwarded by a switch, the max hops will be reduced by 1. The switch discards the configuration BPDU with 0 hops left, thereby limiting the network scale inside the region. If the current switch is a CIST root bridge or MSTI root bridge in an MST region, the Max Hops configured on it will be the network diameter of the spanning tree to limit its scale in the local MST region. The Max Hops configured on the root bridge in an MST region will be adopted by other switches in the same region. Example Set the Max Hops of an MST region to 35.

centi-seconds: Specifies Forward Delay, ranging from 400 to 3000 and measured in centiseconds. By default, the Forward Delay of the switch is 1500 centiseconds.

Description

Use the stp timer forward-delay command to configure Forward Delay for the switch. Use the undo stp timer forward-delay command to restore the default Forward Delay.

To avoid a temporary loop, MSTP defines a medium state, Learning, when the port switches from the Discarding state to Forwarding state. There is also a delay before state switchover to guarantee the synchronous switchover with the remote switch. The Forward Delay configured on the root bridge determines the state transition time. The root bridge will determine the state transition time according to the configured values, while the other switches will apply the forward delay configured on it. When configuring Hello time, Forward Delay and Max Age, please guarantee the following equations: 2 * (Forward Delay - 1.0 seconds) >= Max Age Max Age >= 2 * (Hello Time + 1.0 seconds) Only if the above-mentioned formulas are equal can the MSTP normally operate on the entire network, otherwise, the network may flap frequently. You are recommended to use the stp instance root primary command to specify the diameter of the switching network, so that MSTP can automatically calculate and give the moderate values for the time parameters. Related commands: stp timer hello, stp timer max-age, stp

Use the stp timer hello command to configure Hello Time of the switch. Use the undo stp timer hello command to restore the default Hello Time.

The STP defines to transmit configuration BPDU regularly at an interval specified with Hello Time to keep the spanning tree stable. If the switch receives no BPDU packets for a period of time, it will recalculate the spanning tree upon the BPDU timeouts. The root bridge transmits BPDU packets at an interval as you configured, while other switches apply the Hello Time configured on the root bridge. When configuring Hello time, Forward Delay and Max Age, remember to guarantee the following equations: 2 * (Forward Delay -1.0 seconds) >= Max Age Max Age >= 2 * (Hello Time + 1.0 seconds) Only if the above-mentioned formulas are equal can the MSTP normally operate on the entire network, otherwise, the network may flap frequently. You are recommended to use the stp instance root primary command to specify the diameter of the switching network, so that MSTP can automatically calculate and give the moderate values for the time parameters.

MSTP Configuration Commands

399

MSTP can detect the link fault and automatically resume the forwarding state of the redundant link. On the CIST, the switch checks if the configuration BPDU received via the port expires according to the Max Age. If the BPDU expires, the STI has to be calculated again. Max Age takes no effect on MSTIs. If the current switch is CIST root bridge, it will check if the configuration BPDU expires according to the configured Max Age. Otherwise, the switch adopts the Max Age configured on the CIST root bridge. When you configure Hello time, Forward Delay and Max Age, ensure the following formulas equal: 2 * (Forward Delay -1.0 seconds) >= Max Age Max Age >= 2 * (Hello Time + 1.0 seconds) Only if the above-mentioned formulas are equal can the MSTP normally operate on the entire network, otherwise, the network may flap frequently.

modulo: Specifies the modulus, ranging from 1 to 16.

Description Use the vlan-mapping modulo command to map a VLAN list to an STI. By default, all the VLANs are mapped to CIST, namely Instance 0. MSTP describes the association between VLANs and STIs with the VLAN mapping table. You can use this command to configure this table. Every VLAN can be mapped to an STI as per your configuration. A VLAN cannot be mapped to different MSTI at the same time. The latter configured association will replace the former one. The vlan-mapping modulo modulo command designates VLAN for every STI fast. It maps the VLAN to an STI whose ID is (VLAN ID-1)%modulo+1. (Note: (VLAN ID-1) %modulo performs modulo operation on (VLAN ID-1). Taking the operation modulo 16 as an example, vlan 1 maps to MSTI 1, vlan 2 maps to MSTI2 ...vlan 16 maps to MSTI16, vlan 17 maps to MSTI 1, and so on.)

interface interface-list: Ethernet port list including several Ethernet ports.

interface-list = { interface-num [ to interface-num ] } & < 1-10 >. interface-num specifies a single Ethernet port in the format interface-num = { interface-type interface-num | interface-name }, where interface-type specifies the port type, interface-num specifies the port number and interface-name specifies the port name. For the respective meanings and value ranges, read the Parameter of the Port Configuration section. Description

Use the dot1x command to enable 802.1x on the specified port or globally (i.e., on the current device). Use the undo dot1x command to disable the 802.1x on the specified port or globally.

By default, 802.1x is disabled on all the ports and globally on the device. This command is used to enable the 802.1x on the current device or on the specified port. When it is used in system view, if the parameter ports-list is not specified, 802.1x will be globally enabled. If the parameter ports-list is specified, 802.1x will be enabled on the specified port. When this command is used in Ethernet port view, the parameter interface-list cannot be input and 802.1x can only be enabled on the current port. The configuration command can be used to configure the global or port 802.1x performance parameters before or after 802.1x is enabled. Before 802.1x is enabled globally, if the parameters are not configured globally or for a specified port, they will maintain the default values. After the global 802.1x performance is enabled, only when port 802.1x performance is enabled will the configuration of 802.1x become effective on the port.

View System view Parameter


Chap: Use CHAP authentication method. Pap: Use PAP authentication method. EAP: Use EAP authentication method. By now, only md5 encryption method is available

Description

Use the dot1x authentication-method command to configure the authentication method for 802.1x user. Use the undo dot1x authentication-method command to restore the default authentication method of 802.1x user.

By default, CHAP authentication is used for 802.1x user authentication. Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) is a kind of authentication protocol with two handshakes. It sends password in the form of simple text. Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) is a kind of authentication protocol with three handshakes. It only transmits username but not password. CHAP is more secure and reliable. In the process of EAP authentication, switch directly sends authentication information of 802.1x user to RADIUS server in the form of EAP packet. It is not necessary to transfer the EAP packet to standard RADIUS packet first and then send it to RADIUS server. To realize PAP, CHAP or EAP authentication, RADIUS server should support PAP, CHAP or EAP authentication respectively. Related command: display dot1x.

Generally, for a username in the userid@isp-name format, taking gw20010608@3Com163.net as an example, the isp-name (i.e.3Com163.net) following the @ is the ISP domain name. When 3Com SW7700 Series Ethernet Switches control user access, as for an ISP user whose username is in userid@isp-name format, the system will take userid part as username for identification and take isp-name part as domain name. The purpose of introducing ISP domain settings is to support the application environment with several ISP domains. In this case, an access device may have supplicants from different ISP domains. Because the attributes of ISP users, such as username and password structures, service types, may be different, it is necessary to separate them by setting ISP domains. In ISP domain view, you can configure a complete set of exclusive ISP domain attributes for each ISP domain, which includes AAA schemes ( RADIUS server group applied and so forth.) For a switch, each supplicant belongs to an ISP domain. The system supports to configure up to 16 ISP domains. If a user has not reported its ISP domain name, the system will put it into the default domain.

When this command is used, if the specified ISP domain does not exist, the system will create a new ISP domain. All the ISP domains are in the active state when they are created. Related commands: access-limit, radius scheme, state, display domain. Example Create a new ISP domain, marlboro.net, and enters its view.

idle-cut

Syntax
idle-cut { disable | enable minute flow }

View ISP domain view Parameter


disable: means disabling the user to use idle-cut function . enable: means enabling the user to use the function. minute: Specifies the maximum idle time, ranging from 1 to 120 and measured in

minutes.
flow: The minimum data traffic, ranging from 1 to 10,240,000 and measured in

bytes. Description Use the idle-cut command to configure the user template in the current ISP domain. By default, after an ISP domain is created, this attribute in user template is disable, that is, the user idle-cut is disabled. The user template is a set of default user attributes. If a user requesting for the network service does not have some required attributes, the corresponding attributes in the template will be endeavored to him as default ones. The user template of the switch you are using may only provide user idle-cut settings. After a user is authenticated, if the idle-cut is configured to enable or disable by neither the user nor the RADIUS server, the user will adopt the idle-cut state in the template. Because a user template only works in one ISP domain, it is necessary to configure user template attributes for users from different ISP domain respectively. Related command: domain Example Enable the user in the current ISP domain, 3Com163.net, to use the idle-cut attribute specified in the user template (that is, enabling the user to use the

CHAPTER 9: USING AAA AND RADIUS COMMANDS

authentication: Configures to set/delete the encryption key for RADIUS authentication/authorization packet. string: Specifies the key with a character string not exceeding 16 characters, excluding /, : , *, ? , < and >. By default, the key is 3Com.

Description

Use the key command to configure encryption key for RADIUS authentication/authorization or accounting packet. Use the undo key command to restore the default key.

RADIUS client (switch system) and RADIUS server use MD5 algorithm to hash the exchanged packets. The two ends verify the packet through setting the key. Only when the keys are identical can both ends accept the packets from each other and give responses. So it is necessary to ensure that the keys set on the switch and the RADIUS server are identical. If the authentication/authorization and accounting are performed on two different servers with different keys, you should set two keys respectively. Related commands: primary accounting, primary authentication, radius scheme. Example Example 1: Set the authentication/authorization key of the RADIUS server group to hello.

not exceeding 32 characters, excluding /, :, *, ?, < and >. Description

Use the radius scheme command to configure a RADIUS server group and enter its view. Use the undo radius scheme command to cancel the specified RADIUS server group.

By default, a RADIUS server group named system has been created in the system. The attributes of system are all default values. RADIUS protocol configuration is performed on a per-RADIUS-server-group basis. Every RADIUS server group shall at least have the specified IP address and UDP port number of the RADIUS authentication/authorization/accounting server and some necessary parameters exchanged with the RADIUS client end (switch system). So it is necessary to create the RADIUS server group and enter its view before performing other RADIUS protocol configurations. A RADIUS server group can be used by several ISP domains at the same time. Although undo radius scheme can remove a specified RADIUS server group. However, the default one cannot be removed. Note that a serer group currently in use by the online user cannot be removed.

session ID with a character string not exceeding 50 characters.


time-range start-time stop-time: Configures to delete the stopping accounting requests from the buffer according to the saving time. Start-time specifies the start time of the saving time range and stop-time specifies the stop time of the saving time range. The time is expressed in the format hh:mm:ss-yyyy/mm/dd. When this parameter is set, all the stopping accounting requests saved since start-time to stop-time will be deleted. user-name user-name: Configures to delete the stopping accounting requests from the buffer according to the username. User-name specifies the username, a

character string not exceeding 32 characters, excluding /, :, *, ?, < and >. The @ character can only be used once in one username. The pure username (the part before @, namely the user ID) cannot exceed 24 characters. Description Use the reset stop-accounting-buffer command to reset the stopping accounting requests, which are saved in the buffer and have not been responded. By default, after transmitting the stopping accounting requests, if there is no response from the RADIUS server, the switch will save the packet in the buffer and retransmit it for several times, which is set through the retry realtime-accounting command. This command is used to delete the stopping accounting requests from the switch buffer. You can select to delete the packets transmitted to a specified RADIUS server, or according to the session-id or username, or delete the packets transmitted during the specified time-range. Related commands: stop-accounting-buffer enable, retry stop-accounting, display stop-accounting-buffer.

Parameter
retry-times: Specifies the maximum times of retransmission, ranging from 1 to

20. By default, the value is 3. Description

Use the retry command to configure the RADIUS request retransmission times. Use the undo retry command to restore the retry-times to default value.

Because RADIUS protocol uses UDP packets to carry the data, its communication process is not reliable. If the RADIUS server has not responded NAS until timeout, NAS has to retransmit RADIUS request packet. If it transmits more than the specified retry-time, NAS considers the communication with the current RADIUS server has been disconnected and it will transmit request packet to other RADIUS servers. Setting a suitable retry-time according to the network situation can speed up the system response. Related command: radius scheme Example Set to retransmit the RADIUS request packet no more than 5 times via the server 3Com in the RADIUS server group.

View RADIUS server group view Parameter


retry-times: Specifies the maximum times of real-time accounting request

failing to be responded, ranging from 1 to 255. By default, the accounting request can fail to be responded up to 5 times. Description

Use the retry realtime-accounting command to configure the maximum number of retries for real-time accounting requests. Use the undo retry realtime-accounting command to restore the maximum number of retries for real-time accounting requests to the default value.

RADIUS server usually checks if a user is online with timeout timer. If the RADIUS server has not received the real-time accounting packet from NAS, it will consider that there is line or device failure and stop accounting. Accordingly, it is necessary to disconnect the user at NAS end and on RADIUS server synchronously when some unexpected failure occurs. 3Com SW7700 Series Ethernet Switches support

CHAPTER 9: USING AAA AND RADIUS COMMANDS

to set maximum times of real-time accounting request failing to be responded. NAS will disconnect the user if it has not received real-time accounting response from RADIUS server for some specified times. How to calculate the value of count? Suppose RADIUS server connection will timeout in T and the real-time accounting interval of NAS is t, then the integer part of the result from dividing T by t is the value of count. Therefore, when applied, T is suggested the numbers which can be divided exactly by t. Related command: radius scheme. Example Allow the real-time accounting request failing to be responded for up to 10 times.

Use the retry stop-accounting command to configure the maximal retransmission times after stopping accounting request. Use the undo retry stop-accounting command to restore the retransmission times to the default value.

Because the stopping accounting request concerns account balance and will affect the amount of charge, which is very important for both the user and ISP, NAS shall make its best effort to send the message to RADIUS accounting server. Accordingly, if the message from the switch to RADIUS accounting server has not been responded, the switch shall save it in the local buffer and retransmit it until the server responds or discard the messages after transmitting for specified times. Related commands: reset stop-accounting-buffer, radius scheme, display stop-accounting-buffer. Example Indicate that, when stopping accounting request for the server 3Com in the RADIUS server group, the switch system will retransmit the packets for up to 1000 times.

3Comtype: Configures the switch system to support the extended RADIUS server

type, which requires the RADIUS client end (switch system) and RADIUS server to interact according RADIUS extensions.
iphotel: Configures the switch system to support the RADIUS server of IP Hotel type, which requires the RADIUS client end (switch system) and RADIUS server to interact according to the regulation and packet format of IP Hotel (an extension of RADIUS protocol). portal: Configures the switch system to support the RADIUS server of portal type, which requires the RADIUS client end (switch system) and RADIUS server to interact according to the regulation and packet format of Portal (an extension of RADIUS protocol). standard: Configures the switch system to support the RADIUS server of Standard type, which requires the RADIUS client end (switch system) and RADIUS server to interact according to the regulation and packet format of standard RADIUS protocol (RFC 2138/2139 or newer).

Description

state

Syntax
state { primary | secondary } { accounting | authentication } { block | active }

View RADIUS server group view Parameter


primary: Configures to set the state of the primary RADIUS server. secondary: Configures to set the state of the second RADIUS server. accounting: Configures to set the state of RADIUS accounting server. authentication: Configures to set the state of RADIUS

authentication/authorization.
block: Configures the RADIUS server to be in the state of block. active: Configures the RADIUS server to be active, namely the normal operation state.

Description Use the state command to configure the state of RADIUS server. By default, all the RADIUS servers in every RADIUS server group are in the state of active. For the primary and second servers (no matter an authentication/authorization or an accounting server), if the primary server is disconnected to NAS for some fault, NAS will automatically turn to exchange packets with the second server. However, after the primary one recovers, NAS will not resume the communication with it at once, instead, it continues communicating with the second one. When the second one fails to communicate, NAS will turn to the primary one again. This command is used to set the primary server to be active manually, in order that NAS can communicate with it right after the troubleshooting. When the primary and second servers are all active or block, NAS will send the packets to the primary server only. Related commands: radius scheme, primary authentication, secondary authentication, primary accounting, secondary accounting. Example Set the second authentication server of RADIUS server group, 3Com, to be active.

Use the stop-accounting-buffer enable command to configure to save the stopping accounting requests without response in the switch system buffer. Use the undo stop-accounting-buffer enable command to cancel the function of saving the stopping accounting requests without response in the switch system buffer.

By default, enable to save the stopping accounting requests in the buffer. Because the stopping accounting request concerns account balance and will affect the amount of charge, which is very important for both the user and ISP, NAS shall make its best effort to send the message to RADIUS accounting server. Accordingly, if the message from the switch to RADIUS accounting server has not been responded, the switch shall save it in the local buffer and retransmit it until the server responds or discard the messages after transmitting for specified times. Related commands: reset stop-accounting-buffer, radius scheme, display stop-accounting-buffer.

RADIUS Protocol Configuration Commands

443

Description

Use the timer command to configure RADIUS server response timer. Use the undo timer command to restore the default value of the timer.

After RADIUS (authentication/authorization or accounting) request packet has been transmitted for a period of time, if NAS has not received the response from RADIUS server, it has to retransmit the message to guarantee RADIUS service for the user. The period taken is called RADIUS server response timeout time, which is controlled by the RADIUS server response timeout timer in the switch system. This command is used to set this timer. Setting a suitable timer according to the network situation will enhance the system performance. Related commands: radius scheme, retry. Example Set the response timeout timer of RADIUS server group, 3Com, to 5 seconds.
[SW7700-radius-3Com]timer 5

timer realtime-accounting

Syntax
timer realtime-accounting minute undo timer realtime-accounting

View RADIUS server group view Parameter


minute: Real-time accounting interval, ranging from 3 to 60 and measured in

minutes. By default, the value is 12. Description

Use the timer realtime-accounting command to configure the real-time accounting interval. Use the undo timer realtime-accounting command to restore the default interval.

To implement real-time accounting, it is necessary to set a real-time accounting interval. After the attribute is set, NAS will transmit the accounting information of online users to the RADIUS server regularly. The value of minute is related to the performance of NAS and RADIUS server. The smaller the value is, the higher the requirement for NAS and RADIUS server is. When there are a large amount of users (more than 1000, inclusive), we suggest a larger value. The following table recommends the ratio of minute value to number of users.

user-name-format

Syntax
user-name-format { with-domain | without-domain }

View RADIUS server group view Parameter


with-domain: Specifies to send the username with domain name to RADIUS

server.
without-domain: Specifies to send the username without domain name to

RADIUS server. Description Use the user-name-format command to configure the username format sent to RADIUS server. By default, RADIUS server acknowledges that the username sent to it includes ISP domain name. The supplicants are generally named in userid@isp-name format. The part following @ is the ISP domain name. The switch will put the users into certain ISP domains according to the domain names. However, some earlier RADIUS servers reject the username including ISP domain name. In this case, the username will be sent to the RADIUS server after its domain name is removed. Accordingly, the switch provides this command to decide whether the username to be sent to RADIUS server carries ISP domain name or not. If a RADIUS server group is configured to reject usernames including ISP domain names, the RADIUS server group shall not be simultaneously used in more than one ISP domains. Otherwise, the RADIUS server will regard two users in different ISP domains as the same user by mistake, if they have the same username (excluding their respective domain names.) Related command: radius scheme.

Description

Use the vrrp method command to set correspondence between the MAC address and the virtual IP address of the backup group: matching the real MAC address or the virtual address with the virtual IP address. Use the undo vrrp method command to reset the correspondence to the default value.

By default, the switch matches the virtual MAC address with the IP address of the backup group. Due to the chips installed, some switches support matching one IP address to multiple MAC addresses. Then you may configure correspondence between the virtual IP address of the backup group and the real/virtual MAC address. You should set correspondence between the virtual IP address of the backup group and the MAC address to the desired method before configuring any virtual routers. Otherwise, you will not be able to change the correspondence without removing the virtual router. Example Set the real MAC address of the interface match the virtual IP address of the backup group.

View System view Parameter


static: Static table entry, lost after resetting switch. dynamic: Dynamic table entry, which will be aged. mac-addr: Specify the MAC address. interface-type: interface type. interface-num: interface number. interface-name: interface name. vlan-id: Specify the VLAN ID.

Description Using the mac-address command, you can add/modify the MAC address table entry. Using the undo mac-address command, you can delete MAC address table entry If the input address has been existing in the address table, the original entry will be modified. That is, replace the interface pointed by this address with the new interface and the entry attribute with the new attribute (dynamic entry and static entry). All the (MAC unicast) addresses on a certain interface can be deleted. User can choose to delete any of the following addresses: address learned by system automatically, dynamic address configured by user, static address configured by user. Because the address table is shared in the VLAN domain, you need specify the VLAN of the multicast address and the port of the unicast address, when adding entries to the address table. For the related commands, see display mac-address. Example Configure the port number corresponding to the MAC address 00e0-fc01-0101 as Ethernet1/0/1 in the address table, and sets this entry as static entry.
[SW7700]mac-address static 00e0-fc01-0101 interface Ethernet 1/0/1 vlan 2

CHAPTER 11: USING SYSTEM MANAGEMENT COMMANDS

View Ethernet port view Parameter


count: Enter to specify how many MAC addresses a port can learn. This can be in

the range 0 to 32768. 0 means that the port is not allowed to learn MAC addresses. Description Use the mac-address max-mac-count command to configure the maximum number of MAC addresses that can be learned by a specified Ethernet port. The port stops learning MAC addresses when the specified limit is reached. Use the undo mac-address-table max-mac-count command to cancel the maximum limit on the number of MAC addresses learned by an Ethernet port. This is the default. If you set no maximum limit, the MAC address table controls the number of MAC addresses a port can learn. Related commands: mac-address, mac-address timer, mac-address
mac-learning disable

Examples To configure the port Ethernet 1/0/3 to learn at most 600 MAC addresses, enter the following:
[SW7700-Ethernet1/0/3]mac-address max-mac-count 600

To cancel the maximum limit on the number of MAC addresses learned by the port Ethernet1/0/3, enter the following:
[SW7700-Ethernet1/0/3]undo mac-address max-mac-count

mac-address timer

Syntax
mac-address timer { aging age | no-aging } undo mac-address timer aging

View System view Parameter


aging age: Specifies the aging time (measured in seconds) of the Layer-2 dynamic

address table entry, ranging from 10 to 1000000; by default, the aging time is 300 seconds.
no-aging: No aging time.

Description Using the mac-address timer command, you can configure the aging time of the Layer-2 dynamic address table entry. Using the undo mac-address timer command, you can restore the default value.

Device Management Commands

491

Too long or too short aging time set by subscribers will cause the problem that the Ethernet switch broadcasts a great mount of data packets without MAC addresses, which will affect the switch operation performance. If aging time is set too long, the Ethernet switch will store a great number of out-of-date MAC address tables. This will consume MAC address table resources and the switch will not be able to update MAC address table according to the network change. If aging time is set too short, the Ethernet switch may delete valid MAC address table. Example Configure the entry aging time of Layer-2 dynamic address table to be 500 seconds.
[SW7700]mac-address timer aging 500

View User view Parameter


-a ip-address: Specify the source IP address to transmit ICMP ECHO-REQUEST. -c: count specify how many times the ICMP ECHO-REQUEST packet will be transmitted, ranging from 1 to 4294967295. -d: Configure the socket to be in DEBUGGING mode. interface-type: Specify the interface type. interface-num: Specify the interface number. interface-name: Specify the interface name. -i: Configure to choose packet sent on the interface. -n: Configure to take the host parameter as IP address without domain name

resolution.
-p: pattern is the hexadecimal padding of ICMP ECHO-REQUEST, e.g. -p ff pads

the packet completely with ff.


-q: Configure not to display any other detailed information except statistics. -r: Record route. -s packetsize: Specify the length of ECHO-REQUEST (excluding IP and ICMP packet header) in bytes. -t timeout: Maximum waiting time after sending the ECHO-REQUEST (measured

in ms).
-v: Show other received ICMP packets (non ECHO-RESPONSE). host: Destination host domain name or IP address. ip: Choose IP ICMP packet. ipx: Choose IPX packet.

Description Using the ping command, you can check the IP network connection and the reachability of the host. By default, when the parameters are not specified:

The ECHO-REQUEST message will be sent for 5 times.

Network Connection Test Commands

socket is not in DEBUGGING mode. host will be treated as IP address first. If it is not an IP address, perform domain name resolution. The default padding operation starts from 0x01 and ends on 0x09 (progressively), then performs again. Show all the information including statistics. Routes are not recorded. Send ECHO-REQUEST according to route selection. Default length of ECHO-REQUEST is 56 bytes. Default timeout of ECHO-RESPONSE is 2000ms. Do not display other ICMP packets (non ECHO-RESPONSE).

The ping command sends ICMP ECHO-REQUEST message to the destination. If the network to the destination works well, then the destination host will send ICMP ECHO-REPLY to the source host after receiving ICMP ECHO-REQUEST. Perform the ping command to troubleshoot the network connection and line quality. The output information includes:

Responses to each of the ECHO-REQUEST messages. If the response message is not received until timeout, output Request time out. Or display response message bytes, packet sequence number, TTL and response time. The final statistics, including number of sent packets, number of response packets received, percentage of non-response packets and minimal/maximum/average value of response time.

If the network transmission rate is too low, you can increase the response message timeout. For the related commands, see tracert. Example Check whether the host 202.38.160.244 is reachable.

514

CHAPTER 11: USING SYSTEM MANAGEMENT COMMANDS

View User view Parameter


-a source-IP: Configure the source IP address used by the tracert command. -f: Configure to verify the -f switch, first-TTL specifies an initial TTL, ranging from 0 to the maximum TTL. -m: Configure to verify the -m switch, max-TTL specifies a maximum TTL larger than the initial TTL. -p: Configure to verify the -p switch, port is an integer host port number.

Generally, user need not modify this option.


-q: Configure to verify the -q switch, nqueries is an integer specifying the

number of query packets sent, larger than 0.


-w: Configure to verify the -wf switch, timeout is an integer specifying IP packet timeout in seconds, larger than 0. host: IP address of the destination host or the hostname of the remote system.

Description Using the tracert command, you can check the reachability of network connection and troubleshoot the network. User can test gateways passed by the packets transmitted from the host to the destination. By default, when the parameters are not specified,
first-TTL is 1, max-TTL is 30, port is 33434, nqueries is 3 and timeout is 5s.

The tracert command sends a packet with TTL 1, and the first hop will send an ICMP error message back to indicate this packet cannot be transmitted (because of TTL timeout). Then this packet will be sent again with TTL 2, and the second hop will indicate a TTL timeout error. Perform this operation repeatedly till reaching the destination. These processes are operated to record the source address of each ICMP TTL timeout so as to provide a path to the destination for an IP packet. After the ping command finds some error on the network, perform tracert to locate the error. The output of the tracert command includes IP address of all the gateways to the destination. If a certain gateway times out, output "***".
