Frequently Asked Questions - Force10 E300 DELL

How do I upgrade the FTOS firmware on the Force10 E300?

Use the copy command to transfer the new image to the system (e.g., copy tftp://server/path flash://), then set the boot system with boot system rpm0 primary flash://filename and reload.

How do I reset the enable password?

If you have physical access, you can boot into single-user mode or use the password recovery procedure described in the manual. Alternatively, contact Dell support.

How to configure a VLAN?

Enter configuration mode, create VLAN with interface vlan , assign ports with switchport access vlan or switchport mode trunk.

How to back up the running configuration?

Use copy running-config tftp://server/path or copy running-config startup-config to save to internal flash.

How to enable SSH access?

Generate RSA keys with crypto key generate rsa, then configure SSH with ip ssh server enable and set authentication via AAA or local users.

What is the default login?

By default, you can access the console without a password in EXEC mode. To set a password, use enable password or configure local users.

How to troubleshoot interface issues?

Use show interfaces for status, show interface counters for errors, and debug interface for real-time events (caution: may affect performance).

How to configure a static route?

Use ip route in global configuration mode. For example, ip route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 10.0.0.1.

How to monitor CPU and memory usage?

Use show processes cpu and show memory to view utilization. For historical data, enable SNMP or syslog.

How to reset the switch to factory defaults?

Use restore factory-defaults command in EXEC privilege mode, or erase the startup config with delete flash://startup-config and reload.

CLI Basics

This chapter describes the command structure and command modes. FTOS commands are in a text-based interface that allows you to use launch commands, change the command modes, and configure interfaces and protocols.

This chapter covers the following topics:

• Accessing the Command Line
  • Multiple Configuration Users
• Navigating the Command Line Interface
• Obtaining Help
  • Using the Keyword No
  • Filtering show Commands
• Command Modes

Accessing the Command Line

When the system boots successfully, you are positioned on the command line in the EXEC mode and not prompted to log in. You can access the commands through a serial console port or a Telnet session. When you Telnet into the switch, you are prompted to enter a login name and password.

Figure 2-1 is an example of a successful Telnet login session.

Figure 2-1. Login Example

telnet 172.31.1.53
Trying 172.31.1.53...
Connected to 172.31.1.53.
Escape character is '^]'.
Login: username
Password:
Force10> 

Once you log into the switch, the prompt provides you with current command-level information (refer to Table 2-1).

Multiple Configuration Users

When a user enters the CONFIGURATION mode and another user(s) is already in that configuration mode, FTOS generates an alert warning message similar to the following:

Figure 2-2. Configuration Mode User Alert

Force10#conf
% Warning: The following users are currently configuring the system:
User "" on line console0
User "admin" on line vty0 (123.12.1.123)
User "admin" on line vty1 (123.12.1.123)
User "Irene" on line vty3 (123.12.1.321)
Force10(conf)#Force10# 

When another user enters the CONFIGURATION mode, FTOS sends a message similar to the following, where the user in this case is “admin” on vty2:

% Warning: User "admin" on line vty2 "172.16.1.210" is in configuration

Navigating the Command Line Interface

The Command Line Interface (CLI) prompt displayed by FTOS is comprised of:

• “hostname”— the initial part of the prompt, “Force10” by default. You can change it with the hostname command, as described in hostname.
  • The second part of the prompt, reflecting the current CLI mode, as shown in Table 2-1.

The CLI prompt changes as you move up and down the levels of the command structure. Table 2-1 lists the prompts and their corresponding command levels, called modes. Starting with the CONFIGURATION mode, the command prompt adds modifiers to further identify the mode. The command modes are explained in Command Modes.

Note: Some of the following modes are not available on C-Series or S-Series.

Obtaining Help

As soon as you are in a command mode there are several ways to access help.

• To obtain a list of keywords at any command mode, do the following:
— Enter a ? at the prompt or after a keyword. There must always be a space before the ?.
• To obtain a list of keywords with a brief functional description, do the following:
— Enter help at the prompt.
• To obtain a list of available options, do the following:

— Type a keyword followed by a space and a ?

- Type a partial keyword followed by a ?

— A display of keywords beginning with the partial keyword is listed.

Figure 2-3 illustrates the results of entering ip ? at the prompt.
Figure 2-3. Partial Keyword Example

Force10 (conf) #ip ?
access-list	Named access-list
as-path	BGP autonomous system path filter
community-list	Add a community list entry
domain-list	Domain name to complete unqualified host name
domain-lookup	Enable IP Domain Name System hostname translation
domain-name	Define the default domain name
fib	FIB configuration commands
ftp	FTP configuration commands
host	Add an entry to the ip hostname table
max-frag-count	Max. fragmented packets allowed in IP re-assembly
multicast-routing	Enable IP multicast forwarding
name-server	Specify address of name server to use
pim	Protocol Independent Multicast
prefix-list	Build a prefix list

trace-list	Named trace-list
Force10 (conf) #ip

When entering commands, you can take advantage of the following timesaving features:

• The commands are not case sensitive.
• You can enter partial (truncated) command keywords. For example, you can enter int gig int interface for the interface gigabitethernet interface command.
• Use the TAB key to complete keywords in commands.
• Use the up arrow key to display the last enabled command.
  • Use either the Backspace key or the Delete key to erase the previous character.

Use the left and right arrow keys to navigate left or right in the FTOS command line. Table 2-2 defines the key combinations valid at the FTOS command line.

Table 2-2. Short-cut Keys and their Actions

Key Combination Action
CNTL-A Moves the cursor to the beginning of the command line.
CNTL-B Moves the cursor back one character.
CNTL-D Deletes character at cursor.
CNTL-E Moves the cursor to the end of the line.
CNTL-F Moves the cursor forward one character.
CNTL-I Completes a keyword.
CNTL-K Deletes all characters from the cursor to the end of the command line.
CNTL-L Re-enters the previous command.
CNTL-N Return to more recent commands in the history buffer after recalling commands with Ctrl-P or the up arrow key
CNTL-P Recalls commands, beginning with the last command
CNTL-R Re-enters the previous command.
CNTL-U Deletes the line.
CNTL-W Deletes the previous word.
CNTL-X Deletes the line.
CNTL-Z Ends continuous scrolling of command outputs.
Esc B Moves the cursor back one word.
Esc F Moves the cursor forward one word.
Esc D	Deletes all characters from the cursor to the end of the word.

Using the Keyword No

To disable, delete, or return to default values, use the no form of the commands. For most commands, if you type the keyword no in front of the command, you will disable that command or delete it from the running configuration. In this document, the no form of the command is discussed in the Command Syntax portion of the command description.

Filtering show Commands

You can filter the display output of a show command to find specific information, to display certain information only, or to begin the command output at the first instance of a regular expression or phrase.

When you execute a show command, followed by a pipe ( | ) and one of the parameters listed below and a regular expression, the resulting output either excludes or includes those parameters, as defined by the parameter:

- display — display additional configuration information

• except— display only text that does not match the pattern (or regular expression)
  • find — search for the first occurrence of a pattern
• grep — display text that matches a pattern
• no-more — do not paginate the display output
• save - copy output to a file for future use

Note: FTOS accepts a space before or after the pipe, no space before or after the pipe, or any combination. For example: Force10#command | grep gigabit | except regular-expression | find regular-expression

The grep command option has an ignore-case sub-option that makes the search case-insensitive. For example, the commands:

• show run | grep Ethernet would return a search result with instances containing a capitalized "Ethernet," such as interface GigabitEthernet 0/0.
- show run | grep ethernet would not return the search result, above, because it only searches for instances containing a non-capitalized “ethernet.”

Executing the command show run | grep Ethernet ignore-case would return instances containing both “Ethernet” and “ethernet.”

Displaying All Output

To display the output all at once (not one screen at a time), use the no-more after the pipe. This is similar to the terminal length screen-length command except that the no-more option affects the output of just the specified command. For example:

Force10#show running-config | no-more

Filtering Command Output Multiple Times

You can filter a single command output multiple times. Place the save option as the last filter. For example:

Force10# command | grep regular-expression | except regular-expression | grep other-regular-expression | find regular-expression | no-more | save

Command Modes

To navigate to various CLI modes, you need to use specific commands to launch each mode. Navigation to these modes is discussed in the following sections.

Note: Some of the following modes are not available on C-Series or S-Series.

EXEC Mode

When you initially log in to the switch, by default, you are logged into the EXEC mode. This mode allows you to view settings and to enter the EXEC Privilege mode to configure the device. While you are in the EXEC mode, the > prompt is displayed following the "hostname" prompt, as described above. which is "Force10" by default. You can change it with the hostname command. See the command hostname. Each mode prompt is preceded by the hostname.

EXEC Privilege Mode

The enable command accesses the EXEC Privilege mode. If an administrator has configured an “Enable” password, you will be prompted to enter it here.

The EXEC Privilege mode allows you to access all commands accessible in EXEC mode, plus other commands, such as to clear ARP entries and IP addresses. In addition, you can access the CONFIGURATION mode to configure interfaces, routes, and protocols on the switch. While you are logged in to the EXEC Privilege mode, the # prompt is displayed.

CONFIGURATION Mode

In the EXEC Privilege mode, use the configure command to enter the CONFIGURATION mode and configure routing protocols and access interfaces.

To enter the CONFIGURATION mode:

1. Verify that you are logged in to the EXEC Privilege mode.
2. Enter the configure command. The prompt changes to include (conf).

From this mode, you can enter INTERFACE by using the interface command.

INTERFACE Mode

Use the INTERFACE mode to configure interfaces or IP services on those interfaces. An interface can be physical (for example, a Gigabit Ethernet port) or virtual (for example, the Null interface).

To enter INTERFACE mode:

1. Verify that you are logged into the CONFIGURATION mode.
2. Enter the interface command followed by an interface type and interface number that is available on the switch.
3. The prompt changes to include the designated interface and slot/port number, as outlined in Table 2-3.

Table 2-3. Interface prompts

Command Modes

CONFIGURATION

Command History

Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

E-Series original Command

Usage Information

To display these changes in the show bootvar command output, you must save the running configuration to the startup configuration (copy running-config startup-config or write).

Dell Force10 strongly recommends using local files for configuration (RPM0 or RPM1 flash or slot0).

When you specify a file as the boot config file, it is listed in the boot variables (bootvar) as LOCAL CONFIG FILE. If you do not specify a boot config file, then the startup-configuration is used, although the bootvar shows LOCAL CONFIG FILE = variable does not exist. When you specify a boot config file, the switch reloads with that config file, rather than the startup-config. Note that if you specify a local config file which is not present in the specified location, then the startup-configuration is loaded.

The write memory command always saves the running-configuration to the file labeled startup-configuration. When using a LOCAL CONFIG FILE other than the startup-config, use the copy command to save any running-configuration changes to that local file.

Command History

Version 8.4.1.0 Added IPv6 addressing support for FTP, TFTP, and SCP.

Version 8.2.1.0 Added usbflash and rpm0usbflash commands on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on S-Series and added SSH port number to SCP prompt sequence on all systems.

Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

E-Series original Command

Usage Information

FTOS supports a maximum of 100 files, at the root directory level, on both the internal and external Flash.

The usbflash and rpm0usbflash commands are supported on E-Series ExaScale platform only. Refer to the FTOS Release Notes for a list of approved USB vendors.

When copying a file to a remote location (for example, using Secure Copy (SCP)), enter only the keywords and FTOS prompts you for the rest of the information.

For example, when using SCP, you can enter copy running-config scp:

The running-config is the source, and the target is specified in the ensuing prompts. FTOS prompts you to enter any required information, as needed for the named destination—remote destination, destination filename, user ID and password, etc.

When you use the copy running-config startup-config command to copy the running configuration (the startup configuration file amended by any configuration changes made since the system was started) to the startup configuration file, FTOS creates a backup file on the internal flash of the startup configuration.

FTOS supports copying the running-configuration to a TFTP server or to an FTP server:

copy running-config tftp:

copy running-config ftp:

Command Example: copy running-config scp:

Force10#copy running-config scp:/
Address or name of remote host []: 10.10.10.1
Destination file name [startup-config]? old_running
User name to login remote host? sburgess
Password to login remote host? dilling 

In this example — copy scp: flash: — specifying SCP in the first position indicates that the target is to be specified in the ensuing prompts. Entering flash: in the second position means that the target is the internal Flash. In this example the source is on a secure server running SSH, so the user is prompted for the UDP port of the SSH server on the remote host.

Using scp to copy from an SSH Server

Force10#copy scp: flash:
Address or name of remote host []: 10.11.199.134
Port number of the server [22]: 99
Source file name []: test.cfg
User name to login remote host: admin
Password to login remote host:
Destination file name [test.cfg]: test1.cfg

	Version 6.5.1.0 Application coredump naming convention enhanced to include application.
	Version 6.1.1.0 Introduced
Usage Information	The Kernel core dump can be large and may take up to 5 to 30 minutes to upload. FTOS does not overwrite application core dumps so you should delete them as necessary to conserve space on the flash; if the flash is out of memory, the coredump is aborted. On the S-Series, if the FTP server is not reachable, the application coredump is aborted. FTOS completes the coredump process and wait until the upload is complete before rebooting the system.
Related Commands	logging coredump server	Designate a sever to upload kernel core-dumps.

logging coredump server

Designate a server to upload core dumps.

Syntax
logging coredump server {ipv4-address | ipv6-address} username name password [type] password

Parameters	{ipv4-address | ipv6-address}	Enter the server IPv4 address (A.B.C.D) or IPv6 address (X:X:X:X::X).
	name	Enter a username to access the target server.
	type	Enter the password type:• Enter 0 to enter an unencrypted password.• Enter 7 to enter a password that has already been encrypted using a Type 7 hashing algorithm.
	password	Enter a password to access the target server.
Defaults	Crash kernel files are uploaded to flash by default.
Command Modes	CONFIGURATION
Command History	Version 8.4.1.0 Added support for IPv6.
	Version 7.7.1.0 Restructured command to accommodate core dumps for CP. Introduced on C-Series and S-Series.
	Version 6.1.1.0 Introduced
Usage Information	Since flash space may be limited, using this command ensures your entire crash kernel files are uploaded successfully and completely. Only a single coredump server can be configured. Configuration of a new coredump server will over-write any previously configured server.
	Note: You must disable logging coredump before you designate a new server destination for your core dumps.

CONFIGURATION

Command History	Version 8.3.1.0 Added 2.4 micro-seconds option. ExaScale supports only 10.4 microseconds and 2.4 microseconds with FTOS 8.3.1.0 and later.
	Version 8.1.1.2 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale E600i
	Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale E1200i
	Version 6.2.1.1 Support for E300 introduced (10.4 only)
	Version 6.1.1.0 Values changed as described above

Usage Information

You save the configuration and reload the chassis for the changes to the epoch command setting to take affect.

When using 10 SFMs in an ExaScale chassis, the 10.4 and 2.4 settings are both line rate. Additionally, the 2.4 setting has a lower latency.

When using 9 SFMs in an ExaScale chassis, the 10.4 setting is line rate; the 2.4 setting reduces throughput. Dell Force10 recommends using the 10.4 setting when the system has 9 SFMs.

Using 8 SFMs in an ExaScale chassis reduces throughput at any epoch setting.

Note: The E300 supports only the 10.4 epoch setting. The E-Series TeraScale E600/E600i and the E1200/E1200i systems support the 10.4 and the 3.2 epoch settings.
Note: For E-Series ExaScale, the 2.4 setting is supported on FTOS version 8.3.1.0 and later. The 10.4 setting is supported on all ExaScale FTOS versions. The 3.2 setting is only supported on FTOS versions 8.2.1.0 and earlier.

Usage Information

Traffic statistics are sorted on a per-interface basis; the interface receiving the most traffic is displayed first. All CPU and port information is displayed unless a specific port or CPU is specified. Traffic information is displayed for router ports only; not for management interfaces. The traffic statistics are collected only after the debug cpu-traffic-stats command is executed; not from the system bootup.

Note: After debugging is complete, use the no debug cpu-traffic-stats command to shut off traffic statistics collection.

	Version 6.2.1.0 Expanded to include Software Protocol Configured field on E-Series
	Version 5.3.1.0 Introduced on E-Series
Usage Information	The show inventory media command provides some details about installed pluggable media (SFP, XFP), as shown in Figure 5-23. Use the show interfaces command to get more details about installed pluggable media.The display output might include a double asterisk (**) next to the SFMs, for example:...0 CC-E-SFM ** 0004875 7490007411 A1 CC-E-SFM ** 0004889 7490007411 A...

The double asterisk generally indicates the SFM's frequency capabilities, indicating either that they are operating at 125 MHz or that the frequency capability, which is stored in an EPROM, cannot be determined.

If there are no fiber ports in the line card, then just the header under show inventory media will be displayed. If there are fiber ports but no optics inserted, then the output will display "Media not present or accessible".

Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

E-Series original Command

Usage Information

The output for show memory displays the memory usage of LP part (sysdlp) of the system. The Sysdlp is an aggregate task that handles all the tasks running on C-Series' and E-Series' LP.

In FTOS Release 7.4.1.0 and higher, the total counter size (for all 3 CPUs) in show memory (C-Series and E-Series) and show processes memory (C-Series and E-Series) will differ based on which FTOS processes are counted.

• In the show memory (C-Series and E-Series) display output, the memory size is equal to the size of the application processes.
• In the show processes memory (C-Series and E-Series) display output, the memory size is equal to the size of the application processes plus the size of the system processes.

Example 4 Figure 5-45. Command Example: show processes ipc flow-control on S-Series

Usage Information The Single Window Protocol (SWP) provides flow control-based reliable communication between the sending and receiving software tasks.

Important Points to Remember

• A sending task enqueues messages into the SWP queue3 for a receiving task and waits for an acknowledgement.
• If no response is received within a defined period of time, the SWP timeout mechanism resubmits the message at the head of the FIFO queue.
  • After retrying a defined number of times, the following timeout message is generated:
  SWP-2-NOMORETIMEOUT
• In the display output in Figure 5-45, a retry (Retries) value of zero indicates that the SWP mechanism reached the maximum number of retransmissions without an acknowledgement.

Version 7.4.1.0	Added lp all and lp summary options
Version 6.5.1.0	For rp1 and rp2 only, the output displays memory consumption of all the processes including a summary (see Figure 5-47 and Figure 5-48.

Usage Information

The output for show process memory displays the memory usage statistics running on CP part (sysd) of the system. The Sysd is an aggregate task that handles all the tasks running on C-Series' and E-Series' CP.

In FTOS Release 7.4.1.0 and higher, the total counter size (for all 3 CPUs) in show memory and show processes memory will differ based on which FTOS processes are counted.

• In the show memory (C-Series and E-Series) display output, the memory size is equal to the size of the application processes.
• In the show processes memory (C-Series and E-Series) display output, the memory size is equal to the size of the application processes plus the size of the system processes.

802.1X

The 802.1X Port Authentication commands are:

• debug dot1x
• dot1x auth-type mab-only
• dot1x authentication (Interface)
• dot1x auth-fail-vlan
• dot1x auth-server
• dot1x guest-vlan
• dot1x host-mode
• dot1x mac-auth-bypass
• dot1x max-eap-req
• dot1x max-supplicants
• dot1x port-control
• dot1x quiet-period
• dot1x reauthentication
• dot1x reauth-max
• dot1x server-timeout
• dot1x supplicant-timeout
• dot1x tx-period
  • show dot1x cos-mapping interface
  • show dot1x interface

An authentication server must authenticate a client connected to an 802.1X switch port. Until the authentication, only EAPOL (Extensible Authentication Protocol over LAN) traffic is allowed through the port to which a client is connected. Once authentication is successful, normal traffic passes through the port.

FTOS supports RADIUS and Active Directory environments using 802.1X Port Authentication.

Important Points to Remember

FTOS limits network access for certain users by using VLAN assignments. 802.1X with VLAN assignment has these characteristics when configured on the switch and the RADIUS server.

• 802.1X is supported on C-Series, E-Series, and S-Series.
• 802.1X is not supported on the LAG or the channel members of a LAG.
• If no VLAN is supplied by the RADIUS server or if 802.1X authorization is disabled, the port is configured in its access VLAN after successful authentication.

- If 802.1X authorization is enabled but the VLAN information from the RADIUS server is not valid, the port returns to the unauthorized state and remains in the configured access VLAN. This prevents ports from appearing unexpectedly in an inappropriate VLAN due to a configuration error. Configuration errors create an entry in Syslog.

• If 802.1X authorization is enabled and all information from the RADIUS server is valid, the port is placed in the specified VLAN after authentication.
• If port security is enabled on an 802.1X port with VLAN assignment, the port is placed in the RADIUS server assigned VLAN.
• If 802.1X is disabled on the port, it is returned to the configured access VLAN.
• When the port is in the force authorized, force unauthorized, or shutdown state, it is placed in the configured access VLAN.
• If an 802.1X port is authenticated and put in the RADIUS server assigned VLAN, any change to the port access VLAN configuration will not take effect.
• The 802.1X with VLAN assignment feature is not supported on trunk ports, dynamic ports, or with dynamic-access port assignment through a VLAN membership.

dot1x auth-type mab-only

C S	Use only the host MAC address to authenticate a device with MAC authentication bypass (MAB).
Syntax	dot1x auth-type mab-only
Defaults	Disabled
Command Modes	INTERFACE
Command History	Version 8.4.2.1 Introduced on the C-Series and S-Series
Usage Information	The prerequisites for enabling MAB-only authentication on a port are:802.1X authentication must be enabled globally on the switch and on the port (dot1x authentication command).MAC authentication bypass must be enabled on the port (dot1x mac-auth-bypass command).In MAB-only authentication mode, a port authenticates using the host MAC address even though 802.1xauthentication is enabled. If the MAB-only authentication fails, the host is placed in the guest VLAN (if configured).To disable MAB-only authentication on a port, enter thenodot1x auth-type mab-onlycommand.

dot1x auth-fail-vlan

Configure a authentication failure VLAN for users and devices that fail 802.1X authentication.

Syntax

dot1x auth-fail-vlan vlan-id [max-attempts number]

To delete the authentication failure VLAN, use the no dot1x auth-fail-vlan vlan-id [max-attempts number] command.

Parameters

vlan-id

Enter the VLAN Identifier.

Range: 1 to 4094

max-attempts number

(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword max-attempts followed number of attempts desired before authentication fails.

Range: 1 to 5

Default: 3

Defaults

3 attempts

Command Modes

CONFIGURATION (conf-if-interface-slot/port)

Command History

Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on C-Series, E-Series and S-Series

Usage Information

If the host responds to 802.1X with an incorrect login/password, the login fails. The switch will attempt to authenticate again until the maximum attempts configured is reached. If the authentication fails after all allowed attempts, the interface is moved to the authentication failed VLAN.

Once the authentication VLAN is assigned, the port-state must be toggled to restart authentication. Authentication will occur at the next re-authentication interval (dot1x reauthentication).

Syntax	Configure a guest VLAN for limited access users or for devices that are not 802.1X capable.dot1x guest-vlan vlan-idTo disable the guest VLAN, use theno dot1x guest-vlan vlan-idcommand.
Parameters	vlan-id	Enter the VLAN Identifier.Range: 1 to 4094
Defaults	Not configured
Command Modes	CONFIGURATION (conf-if-interface-slot/port)
Command History	Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on C-Series, E-Series, and S-Series
Usage Information	802.1X authentication is enabled when an interface is connected to the switch. If the host fails to respond within a designated amount of time, the authenticator places the port in the guest VLAN.If a device does not respond within 30 seconds, it is assumed that the device is not 802.1X capable.Therefore, a guest VLAN is allocated to the interface and authentication, for the device, will occur at the next re-authentication interval (dot1x reauthentication).If the host fails authentication for the designated amount of times, the authenticator places the port in authentication failed VLAN (dot1x auth-fail-vlan).Note: Layer 3 portion of guest VLAN and authentication fail VLANs can be created regardless if the VLAN is assigned to an interface or not. Once an interface is assigned a guest VLAN (which has an IP address), then routing through the guest VLAN is the same as any other traffic. However, interface may join/leave a VLAN dynamically.

Access Control Lists (ACL)

Overview

Access Control Lists (ACLs) are supported on platforms C E S

FTOS supports the following types of Access Control List (ACL), IP prefix list, and route map:

• Commands Common to all ACL Types
  • Common IP ACL Commands
  • Standard IP ACL Commands
  • Extended IP ACL Commands
• Common MAC Access List Commands
  • Standard MAC ACL Commands
• Extended MAC ACL Commands
  • IP Prefix List Commands
• Route Map Commands
• AS-Path Commands
  • IP Community List Commands

Note: For ACL commands used in the Trace function, see the section Trace List Commands in the chapter Security.

Note: For IPv6 ACL commands, see Chapter 26, IPv6 Access Control Lists (IPv6 ACLs).

Commands Common to all ACL Types

The following commands are available within each ACL mode and do not have mode-specific options. Some commands may use similar names, but require different options to support the different ACL types (for example, deny).

• description
• remark
  • show config

description

Configure a short text string describing the ACL.

Syntax
Parameters

Version 7.6.1.0 Added support for S-Series
Version 7.5.1.0 Added support for C-Series
pre-Version 6.4.1.0 Introduced for E-Series
Usage Information

The remark command is available in each ACL mode. You can configure up to 4294967290 remarks in a given ACL.

The following example shows the use of the remark command twice within the CONFIGURATION-STANDARD-ACCESS-LIST mode. Here, the same sequence number was used for the remark and for an associated ACL rule. The remark will precede the rule in the running-config because it is assumed that the remark is for the rule with the same sequence number, or the group of rules that follow the remark.

Common IP ACL Commands

The following commands are available within both IP ACL modes (Standard and Extended) and do not have mode-specific options. When an access-list (ACL) is created without any rule and then applied to an interface, ACL behavior reflects an implicit permit.

C and S platforms support Ingress IP ACLs only.

The following commands allow you to clear, display, and assign IP ACL configurations.

• access-class
  • clear counters ip access-group
• ip access-group
  • show ip access-lists
  • show ip accounting access-list

Note: See also Commands Common to all ACL Types.

Standard IP ACL Commands

When an ACL is created without any rule and then applied to an interface, ACL behavior reflects an implicit permit.

C and S platforms support Ingress IP ACLs only.

The commands needed to configure a Standard IP ACL are:

• deny
• ip access-list standard
• permit
• resequence access-list
• resequence prefix-list ipv4
• seq

Note: See also Commands Common to all ACL Types and Common IP ACL Commands.

deny

Syntax

Configure a filter to drop packets with a certain IP address.

deny { source [mask] | any | host ip-address} [count [byte] | log] [dscp value] [order] [monitor] [fragments]

To remove this filter, you have two choices:

• Use the no seq sequence-number command syntax if you know the filter's sequence number or
  • Use the no deny {source [mask] | any | host ip-address} command.

Parameters

source	Enter the IP address in dotted decimal format of the network from which the packet was sent.
mask	(OPTIONAL) Enter a network mask in /prefix format (/x) or A.B.C.D. The mask, when specified in A.B.C.D format, may be either contiguous or non-contiguous (discontiguous).
any	Enter the keyword any to specify that all routes are subject to the filter.
host ip-address	Enter the keyword host followed by the IP address to specify a host IP address only.
count	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword count to count packets processed by the filter.
byte	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword byte to count bytes processed by the filter.
log	(OPTIONAL, E-Series only) Enter the keyword log to enter ACL matches in the log.
dscp	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword dcsp to match to the IP DCSCP values.
order	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword order to specify the QoS order of priority for the ACL entry.Range: 0-254 (where 0 is the highest priority and 254 is the lowest; lower order numbers have a higher priority)Default: If the order keyword is not used, the ACLs have the lowest order by default(255).
monitor	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword monitor when the rule is describing the traffic that you want to monitor and the ACL in which you are creating the rule will be applied to the monitored interface. For details, see the section “Flow-based Monitoring” in the Port Monitoring chapter of the FTOS Configuration Guide.
fragments	Enter the keyword fragments to use ACLs to control packet fragments.

Defaults

Usage Information

The order option is relevant in the context of the Policy QoS feature only. See the “Quality of Service” chapter of the FTOS Configuration Guide for more information.

When you use the log option, CP processor logs details about the packets that match. Depending on how many packets match the log entry and at what rate, the CP may become busy as it has to log these packets' details.

The monitor option is relevant in the context of flow-based monitoring only. See the Chapter 45, Port Monitoring.

The C-Series and S-Series cannot count both packets and bytes, so when you enter the count byte options, only bytes are incremented.

Note: When ACL logging and byte counters are configured simultaneously, byte counters may display an incorrect value. Configure packet counters with logging instead.

Command History

Version 8.2.1.0 Allows ACL control of fragmented packets for IP (Layer 3) ACLs.

Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.4.1.0 Added monitor option

Version 6.5.10 Expanded to include the optional QoS order priority for the ACL entry.

Usage Information

The order option is relevant in the context of the Policy QoS feature only. See the “Quality of Service” chapter of the FTOS Configuration Guide for more information.

When you use the log option, CP processor logs details about the packets that match. Depending on how many packets match the log entry and at what rate, the CP may become busy as it has to log these packets' details.

The monitor option is relevant in the context of flow-based monitoring only. See Chapter 45, Port Monitoring.

You cannot include IP, TCP or UDP (Layer 3) filters in an ACL configured with ARP or Ether-type (Layer 2) filters. Apply Layer 2 ACLs (ARP and Ether-type) to Layer 2 interfaces only.

Note: When ACL logging and byte counters are configured simultaneously, byte counters may display an incorrect value. Configure packet counters with logging instead.

Note: When ACL logging and byte counters are configured simultaneously, byte counters may display an incorrect value. Configure packet counters with logging instead.

Most ACL rules require one entry in the CAM. However, rules with TCP and UDP port operators (gt, lt, range) may require more than one entry. The range of ports is configured in the CAM based on bit mask boundaries; the space required depends on exactly what ports are included in the range.

For example, an ACL rule with TCP port range 4000 - 8000 uses 8 entries in the CAM:

Rule#	Data	Mask	From	To	#Covered
1	0000111110100000	1111111111100000	4000	4031	32

Usage Information

The order option is relevant in the context of the Policy QoS feature only. See the Quality of Service chapter of the FTOS Configuration Guide for more information.

Note: When ACL logging and byte counters are configured simultaneously, byte counters may display an incorrect value. Configure packet counters with logging instead.

The monitor option is relevant in the context of the flow-based monitoring feature only. See Chapter 45, Port Monitoring.

When you use the log option, CP processor logs details about the packets that match. Depending on how many packets match the log entry and at what rate, the CP may become busy as it has to log these packets' details.

The C-Series and S-Series cannot count both packets and bytes, so when you enter the count byte options, only bytes are incremented.

Most ACL rules require one entry in the CAM. However, rules with TCP and UDP port operators (gt, lt, range) may require more than one entry. The range of ports is configured in the CAM based on bit mask boundaries; the space required depends on exactly what ports are included in the range.

For example, an ACL rule with TCP port range 4000 - 8000 uses 8 entries in the CAM:

Rule#	Data	Mask	From	To	#Covered
1	0000111110100000	1111111111100000	4000	4031	32

Command History

Version 8.3.1.0 Add DSCP value for ACL matching.
Version 8.2.1.0 Allows ACL control of fragmented packets for IP (Layer 3) ACLs.
Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale
Version 7.6.1.0 Added support for S-Series
Version 7.5.1.0 Added support for C-Series
Version 7.4.1.0	Added support for non-contiguous mask and added the monitor option. Deprecated established keyword
Version 6.5.10	Expanded to include the optional QoS order priority for the ACL entry.

Usage Information

The monitor option is relevant in the context of the flow-based monitoring feature only. See Chapter 45, Port Monitoring.

When you use the log option, CP processor logs details about the packets that match. Depending on how many packets match the log entry and at what rate, the CP may become busy as it has to log these packets' details.

The order option is relevant in the context of the Policy QoS feature only. The following applies:

• The seq sequence-number is applicable only in an ACL group.
• The order option works across ACL groups that have been applied on an interface via QoS policy framework.
  • The order option takes precedence over the seq sequence-number.
• If sequence-number is not configured, then rules with the same order value are ordered according to their configuration order.
• If the sequence-number is configured, then the sequence-number is used as a tie breaker for rules with the same order.

If the sequence-number is configured, then the sequence-number is used as a tie breaker for rules with the same order.

Note: When ACL logging and byte counters are configured simultaneously, byte counters may display an incorrect value. Configure packet counters with logging instead.

Route Map Commands

When an access-list is created without any rule and then applied to an interface, ACL behavior reflects implicit permit.

The following commands allow you to configure route maps and their redistribution criteria.

• continue
• description
• match as-path
• match community
• match interface
• match ip address
• match ip next-hop
• match ip route-source
• match metric
• match origin
• match route-type
• match tag
• route-map
• set as-path
• set automatic-tag
• set comm-list delete
• set community
• set level
• set local-preference
• set metric

continue

Configure a route-map to go to a route-map entry with a higher sequence number.

Syntax

continue [sequence-number]

Parameters

sequence-number

(OPTIONAL) Enter the route map sequence number.

Range: 1 - 65535

Default: no sequence number

Defaults

Command Modes ROUTE-MAP

Command History

Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.6.1.0 Support added for S-Series

Version 7.5.1.0 Support added for C-Series

Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced

Usage Information

The continue feature allows movement from one route-map entry to a specific route-map entry (the sequence number). If the sequence number is not specified, the continue feature simply moves to the next sequence number (also known as an implied continue). If a match clause exists, the continue feature executes only after a successful match occurs. If there are no successful matches, continue is ignored.

Match clause with Continue clause

The continue feature can exist without a match clause. A continue clause without a match clause executes and jumps to the specified route-map entry.

With a match clause and a continue clause, the match clause executes first and the continue clause next in a specified route map entry. The continue clause launches only after a successful match. The behavior is:

• A successful match with a continue clause—the route map executes the set clauses and then goes to the specified route map entry upon execution of the continue clause.
• If the next route map entry contains a continue clause, the route map will execute the continue clause if a successful match occurs.
• If the next route map entry does not contain a continue clause, the route map evaluates normally. If a match does not does not occur, the route map does not continue and will fall through to the next sequence number, if one exists.

Set clause with Continue clause

If the route-map entry contains sets with the continue clause, then set actions is performed first followed by the continue clause jump to the specified route map entry.

• If a set actions occurs in the first route map entry and then the same set action occurs with a different value in a subsequent route map entry, the last set of actions overrides the previous set of actions with the same set command.
• If set community additive and set as-path prepend are configure, the communities and AS numbers are prepended.

Usage Information

The community list used in the set comm-list delete command must be configured so that each filter contains only one community. For example, the filter deny 100:12 is acceptable, but the filter deny 120:13 140:33 results in an error.

If the set comm-list delete command and the set community command are configured in the same route map sequence, then the deletion command (set comm-list delete) is processed before the insertion command (set community).

Prior to 7.8.1.0, names are up to 16 characters long.

ACL VLAN Group

Overview

The ACL VLAN Group feature is available only on the E-Series, as indicated by this symbol under each command heading: [E]

Since VLAN ACLs exist as multiple ACLs in the CAM, the size of the ACLs can be limited in the CAM. The ACL VLAN Group feature permits you to group VLANs and apply ACLs to the group so that ACLs exist as a single ACL in the CAM.

Note: This feature is supported on IPv4 only and can only be used with the ipv4-egacl-16k CAM Profile with the acl-group microcode. See Chapter 14, Content Addressable Memory (CAM).

Commands

The ACL VLAN Group commands are:

• acl-vlan-group
• description
• ip access-group
• member vlan
  • show acl-vlan-group
  • show config
  • show running config acl-vlan-group

See other VLAN commands in Chapter 9, Access Control Lists (ACL).

Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD)

Overview

Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is a detection protocol that provides fast forwarding path failure detection. The FTOS implementation is based on the standards specified in the IETF Draft draft-ietf-bfd-base-03 and supports BFD on all Layer 3 physical interfaces including VLAN interfaces and port-channels.

BFD is supported on the C-Series and E-Series, where indicated by the C and E characters under command headings.

BFD is supported on E-Series ExaScale with FTOS 8.2.1.0 and later.

• bfd all-neighbors
• bfd disable
• bfd enable (Configuration)
• bfd enable (Interface)
• bfd interval
• bfd neighbor
• bfd protocol-liveness
• clear bfd counters
• debug bfd

Command History
Version 8.4.2.5 BFD for BGP was introduced on the C-Series and E-Series TeraScale.

Version 8.3.8.0 BFD for BGP was introduced on the S4810.

Version 8.4.1.3 BFD for BGP was introduced on the E-Series ExaScale.

Version 8.2.1.0 BFD for OSPF and ISIS introduced on the E-Series ExaScale.

Version 7.6.1.0 BFD for OSPF introduced on the C-Series.

Version 7.5.1.0 BFD for ISIS introduced on the E-Series.

Version 7.4.1.0 BFD for OSPF introduced on the E-Series.

Usage Information

All neighbors inherit the timer values configured with the bfd all-neighbors command except in the following cases:

- Timer values configured with the isis bfd all-neighbors command in INTERFACE mode override timer values configured with the bfd all-neighbors command. Likewise, using the no bfd all-neighbors command does not disable BFD on an interface if BFD is explicitly enabled using the command isis bfd all-neighbors.

Related Commands

- Neighbors that have been explicitly enabled or disabled for a BFD session with the bfd neighbor or neighbor bfd disable commands in ROUTER BGP mode do not inherit the global BFD enable/disable values configured with the bfd all-neighbors command or configured for the peer group to which a neighbor belongs. The neighbors inherit only the global timer values (configured with the bfd all-neighbors command).

show bfd neighbors Display BFD neighbor information on all interfaces or a specified interface.

Usage Information

Protocol Liveness is a feature that notifies the BFD Manager when a client protocol (e.g OSPF, ISIS) is disabled. When a client is disabled, all BFD sessions for that protocol are torn down. Neighbors on the remote system receive an Admin Down control packet and are placed in the Down state. Peer routers might take corrective action by choosing alternative paths for the routes that originally pointed to this router.

Border Gateway Protocol IPv4 (BGPv4)

Overview

BGPv4 is supported as shown in the following table.

FTOS version Platform support
8.1.1.0 E-Series ExaScale
7.8.1.0 S-Series
7.7.1.0. C-Series
pre-7.7.1.0 E-Series TeraScale

For detailed information on configuring BGP, refer to the BGP chapter in the FTOS Configuration Guide.

This chapter contains the following sections:

• BGPv4 Commands
• MBGP Commands
  • BGP Extended Communities (RFC 4360)

BGPv4 Commands

Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is an external gateway protocol that transmits interdomain routing information within and between Autonomous Systems (AS). BGP version 4 (BGPv4) supports Classless InterDomain Routing (CIDR) and the aggregation of routes and AS paths. Basically, two routers (called neighbors or peers) exchange information including full routing tables and periodically send messages to update those routing tables.

Note: FTOS Version 7.7.1 supports 2-Byte (16-bit) and 4-Byte (32-bit) format for Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs), where the 2-Byte format is 1-65535, the 4-Byte format is 1-4294967295.

Note: FTOS Version 8.3.1.0 supports Dotted format as well as the Traditional Plain format for AS Numbers. The dot format is displayed when using the show ip bgp commands. To determine the comparable dot format for an ASN from a traditional format, use ASN/65536.ASN%65536.

For more information about using the 2 or 4-Byte format, refer to the FTOS Configuration Guide.

The following commands enable you to configure and enable BGP.

Defaults

Not configured.

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP

Command

Version 6.5.1.0 Introduced

aggregate-address

Summarize a range of prefixes to minimize the number of entries in the routing table.

Syntax

aggregate-address ip-address mask [advertise-map map-name] [as-set] [attribute-map map-name] [summary-only] [suppress-map map-name]

Parameters

ip-address mask	Enter the IP address and mask of the route to be the aggregate address. Enter the IP address in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D) and mask in /prefix format (/x).
advertise-map map-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordsadvertise-mapfollowed by the name of a configured route map to set filters for advertising an aggregate route.
as-set	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordas-setto generate path attribute information and include it in the aggregate.AS_SET includes AS_PATHand community information from the routes included in the aggregated route.
attribute-map map-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordsattribute-mapfollowed by the name of a configured route map to modify attributes of the aggregate, excluding AS_PATHand NEXT_HOP attributes.
summary-only	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordsummary-onlyto advertise only the aggregate address. Specific routes will not be advertised.
suppress-map map-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordssuppress-mapfollowed by the name of a configured route map to identify which more-specific routes in the aggregate are suppressed.

Defaults

Not configured.

Command Modes	ROUTER BGP ADDRESS FAMILY
	ROUTER BGP ADDRESS FAMILY IPv6
Usage Information	At least one of the routes included in the aggregate address must be in the BGP routing table for the configured aggregate to become active.
	Do not add the as-set parameter to the aggregate, if routes within the aggregate are constantly changing as the aggregate will flap to keep track of the changes in the AS_PATH.
	In route maps used in the suppress-map parameter, routes meeting the deny clause are not suppress; in other words, they are allowed. The opposite is true: routes meeting the permit clause are suppressed.
	If the route is injected via the network command, that route will still appear in the routing table if the summary-only parameter is configured in the aggregate-address command.
	The summary-only parameter suppresses all advertisements. If you want to suppress advertisements to only specific neighbors, use the neighbor distribute-list command.
	In the show ip bgp command, aggregates contain an ‘a’ in the first column and routes suppressed by the aggregate contain an ‘s’ in the first column.

bgp non-deterministic-med

Compare MEDs of paths from different Autonomous Systems.

Syntax

bgp non-deterministic-med

To return to the default, enter no bgp non-deterministic-med.

Defaults

Disabled (that is, paths/routes for the same destination but from different ASs will not have their MEDs compared).

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP

Usage Information

In non-deterministic mode, paths are compared in the order in which they arrive. This method can lead to FTOS choosing different best paths from a set of paths, depending on the order in which they are received from the neighbors since MED may or may not get compared between adjacent paths. In deterministic mode (no bgp non-deterministic-med), FTOS compares MED between adjacent paths within an AS group since all paths in the AS group are from the same AS.

When you change the path selection from deterministic to non-deterministic, the path selection for existing paths remains deterministic until you enter clear ip bgp ipv4 unicast soft command to clear existing paths.

To disable next-hop resolution, use the no bgp recursive-bgp-next-hop command.

Defaults

Enabled

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP

Usage Information

This command is a knob to disable BGP next-hop resolution via BGP learned routes. During the next-hop resolution, only the first route that the next-hop resolves through is verified for the route's protocol source and is checked if the route is learned from BGP or not.

The clear ip bgp command is required for this command to take effect and to keep the BGP database consistent. Execute the clear ip bgp command right after executing this command.

bgp regex-eval-optz-disable

Disables the Regex Performance engine that optimizes complex regular expression with BGP.

Syntax

bgp regex-eval-optz-disable

To re-enable optimization engine, use the no bgp regex-eval-optz-disable command.

Defaults

Enabled by default

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP (conf-router_bgp)

Usage Information

BGP uses regular expressions (regex) to filter route information. In particular, the use of regular expressions to filter routes based on AS-PATHs and communities is quite common. In a large scale configuration, filtering millions of routes based on regular expressions can be quite CPU intensive, as a regular expression evaluation involves generation and evaluation of complex finite state machines.

BGP policies, containing regular expressions to match as-path and communities, tend to use a lot of CPU processing time, which in turn affects the BGP routing convergence. Additionally, the show bgp commands, which are filtered through regular expressions, use up CPU cycles particularly with large databases. The Regex Engine Performance Enhancement feature optimizes the CPU usage by caching and reusing regular expression evaluation results. This caching and reuse may be at the expensive of RP1 processor memory.

To return to the default setting, use the no bgp soft-reconfig-backup command.

Defaults

Off

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP

Usage Information

When soft-reconfiguration is enabled for a neighbor and the clear ip bgp soft in is executed, the update database stored in the router is replayed and updates are reevaluated. With this command, the replay and update process is triggered only if route-refresh request is not negotiated with the peer. If the request is indeed negotiated (upon execution of clear ip bgp soft in), then BGP sends a route-refresh request to the neighbor and receives all of the peer's updates.

Usage Information

Configure the same password on both BGP peers or a connection does not occur. When you configure MD5 authentication between two BGP peers, each segment of the TCP connection between them is verified and the MD5 digest is checked on every segment sent on the TCP connection.

Configuring a password for a neighbor will cause an existing session to be torn down and a new one established.

If you specify a BGP peer group by using the peer-group-name parameter, all the members of the peer group will inherit the characteristic configured with this command.

If you configure a password on one neighbor, but you have not configured a password for the neighboring router, the following message appears on the console while the routers attempt to establish a BGP session between them:

%RPM0-P:RP1 %KERN-6-INT: No BGP MD5 from [peer's IP address] :179 to [local router's IP address]:65524

Also, if you configure different passwords on the two routers, the following message appears on the console:

To delete a peer from a peer group, use the no neighbor ip-address peer-group peer-group-name command.

Parameters

ip-address Enter the IP address of the router to be included in the peer group.

peer-group-name

Enter the name of a configured peer group.

Defaults

Not configured.

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP

Usage Information

You can assign up to 256 peers to one peer group.

When you add a peer to a peer group, it inherits all the peer group's configured parameters. A peer cannot become part of a peer group if any of the following commands are configured on the peer:

• neighbor advertisement-interval
- neighbor distribute-list out
- neighbor filter-list out
- neighbor next-hop-self
- neighbor route-map out
- neighbor route-reflector-client
- neighbor send-community

A neighbor may keep its configuration after it was added to a peer group if the neighbor's configuration is more specific than the peer group's, and the neighbor's configuration does not affect outgoing updates.

A peer group must exist before you add a peer to it. If the peer group is disabled (shutdown) the peers within the group are also disabled (shutdown).

neighbor peer-group passive

Enable passive peering on a BGP peer group, that is, the peer group does not send an OPEN message, but will respond to one.

Syntax

neighbor peer-group-name peer-group passive [match-af]

To delete a passive peer-group, use the no neighbor peer-group-name peer-group passive command.

Parameters

peer-group-name	Enter a text string up to 16 characters long as the name of the peer group.
match-af	(Optional) Enter the keyword match-af to require that the address family of a peer matches the address family of the subnet assigned to the specified peer group before the peer’s adjacency is brought up.

Defaults

Not configured.

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP

Usage Information

After you configure a peer group as passive, you must assign it a subnet using the neighbor soft-reconfiguration inbound command.

Use the keyword match-af to restrict the peer adjacency established with a passive peer group. Entering match-af requires that a peer's address family matches the address family of the subnet assigned to the peer group before the peer's adjacency is brought up. For example, if the address family of the peer group's subnet is IPv6, only IPv6 neighbors in the subnet can be brought up in a peering session.

You can only specify the match-af option when you first enter the neighbor peer-group passive command to configure passive peering for a BGP group. An error message is displayed if you later try to add this option to an existing passive peer group by re-entering the command.

Related Commands	neighbor soft-reconfiguration inbound Assign a subnet to a dynamically-configured BGP neighbor.

Defaults

Not configured.

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP

Usage Information

You must configure your system to accept 4-Byte formats before entering a 4-Byte AS Number. If the number parameter is the same as the AS number used in the router bgp command, the remote AS entry in the neighbor is considered an internal BGP peer entry.

This command creates a peer and the newly created peer is disabled (shutdown).

neighbor route-reflector-client

Syntax	Configure the router as a route reflector and the specified neighbors as members of the cluster.
	neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} route-reflector-client
	To remove one or more neighbors from a cluster, use the no neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} route-reflector-client command. If you delete all members of a cluster, you also delete the route-reflector configuration on the router.
Parameters	ip-address	Enter the IP address of the neighbor in dotted decimal format.
	peer-group-name Enter the name of the peer group.All routers in the peer group receive routes from a route reflector.
Defaults	Not configured.
Command Modes	ROUTER BGP
Usage Information	A route reflector reflects routes to the neighbors assigned to the cluster. Neighbors in the cluster do not need not be fully meshed. By default, when no route reflector is used, internal BGP (IBGP) speakers in the network must be fully meshed.The first time you enter this command the router is configured as a route reflector and the specified BGP neighbors are configured as clients in the route-reflector cluster.When you remove all clients of a route reflector using the no neighbor route-reflector-client command, the router no longer functions as a route reflector.If the clients of a route reflector are fully meshed, you can configure the route reflector to not reflect routes to specified clients by using the no bgp client-to-client reflection command.
Related Commands	bgp client-to-client reflection Enable route reflection between route reflector and clients.

MBGP Commands

Multiprotocol BGP (MBGP) is an enhanced BGP that enables multicast routing policy throughout the Internet and connecting multicast topologies between BGP and autonomous systems (AS). FTOS MBGP is implemented as per IETF RFC 2828.

FTOS version 7.8.1.0 and later support MBGP for IPv6 on E_T and C platforms.

FTOS version 7.8.1.0 and later supports MBGP for IPv4 Multicast only on the S platform.

address family ipv4 multicast (MBGP)

This command changes the context to SAFI (Subsequent Address Family Identifier).

Syntax address family ipv4 multicast

To remove SAFI context, use the no address family ipv4 multicast command.

Parameters

ipv4	Enter the keyword ipv4 to specify the address family as IPV4.
multicast	Enter the keyword multicast to specify multicast as SAFI.

Defaults IPv4 Unicast

Command Modes ROUTER BGP (conf-router\_bgp)

Usage Information All subsequent commands will apply to this address family once this command is executed. You can exit from this AFI/SAFI to the IPv4 Unicast (the default) family by entering exit and returning to the Router BGP context.

aggregate-address

Summarize a range of prefixes to minimize the number of entries in the routing table.

Syntax

aggregate-address ip-address mask [advertise-map map-name] [as-set] [attribute-map map-name] [summary-only] [suppress-map map-name]

Parameters

ip-address mask	Enter the IP address and mask of the route to be the aggregate address.Enter the IP address in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D) and mask in /prefix format (/x).
advertise-mapmap-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordsadvertise-mapfollowed by thename of a configured route map to set filters for advertising an aggregateroute.
as-set	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordas-setto generate path attributeinformation and include it in the aggregate.AS_SET includes AS_PATHand community information from the routesincluded in the aggregated route.
attribute-map map-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordsattribute-mapfollowed by the nameof a configured route map to modify attributes of the aggregate, excludingAS_PATHand NEXT_HOP attributes.
summary-only	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordsummary-onlyto advertise only theaggregate address. Specific routes will not be advertised.
suppress-mapmap-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordssuppress-mapfollowed by thename of a configured route map to identify which more-specific routes inthe aggregate are suppressed.

Defaults

Not configured.

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP Address Family (conf-router_bgp_af)

Usage Information

At least one of the routes included in the aggregate address must be in the BGP routing table for the configured aggregate to become active.

Do not add the as-set parameter to the aggregate. If routes within the aggregate are constantly changing, the aggregate will flap to keep track of the changes in the AS_PATH.

In route maps used in the suppress-map parameter, routes meeting the deny clause are not suppress; in other words, they are allowed. The opposite is true: routes meeting the permit clause are suppressed.

If the route is injected via the network command, that route will still appear in the routing table if the summary-only parameter is configured in the aggregate-address command.

The summary-only parameter suppresses all advertisements. If you want to suppress advertisements to only specific neighbors, use the neighbor distribute-list command.

bgp soft-reconfig-backup

Use this command only when route-refresh is not negotiated between peers to avoid having a peer resend BGP updates.

Syntax bgp soft-reconfig-backup

To return to the default setting, use the no bgp soft-reconfig-backup command.

Defaults Off

Command Modes ROUTER BGP ADDRESS FAMILY (conf-router_bgp_af)
Usage Information When soft-reconfiguration is enabled for a neighbor and the clear ip bgp soft in is executed, the update database stored in the router is replayed and updates are reevaluated. With this command, the replay and update process is triggered only if route-refresh request is not negotiated with the peer. If the request is indeed negotiated (upon execution of clear ip bgp soft in), then BGP sends a route-refresh request to the neighbor and receives all of the peer's updates.

Related Commands

To indicate that the neighbor is not a route reflector client or to delete a route reflector configuration, use the no neighbor ip-address | peer-group-name route-reflector-client command.

Parameters	ip-address	(OPTIONAL) Enter the IP address of the neighbor in dotted decimal format.
	peer-group-name (OPTIONAL) Enter the name of the peer group.All routers in the peer group receive routes from a route reflector.
Defaults	Not configured.
hand Modes	ROUTER BGP Address Family (conf-router_bgp_af)
Usage Information	The first time you enter this command it configures the neighbor as a route reflector and members of the route-reflector cluster. Internal BGP (IBGP) speakers do not need to be fully meshed if you configure a route reflector.When all clients of a route reflector are disabled, the neighbor is no longer a route reflector.

neighbor soft-reconfiguration inbound

Enable a BGP soft-reconfiguration and start storing updates for inbound IPv4 multicast routes.

Syntax neighbor {ipv4-address | ipv6-address | peer-group-name} soft-reconfiguration inbound

Parameters	ipv4-address | ipv6-address	Enter the IP address of the neighbor for which you want to start storing inbound routing updates.
	peer-group-name	Enter the name of the peer group for which you want to start storing inbound routing updates.

Defaults Disabled

Command Modes ROUTER BGP ADDRESS FAMILY (conf-router_bgp_af)

Usage Information This command enables soft-reconfiguration for the specified BGP neighbor. BGP will store all updates for inbound IPv4 multicast routes received by the neighbor but will not reset the peer-session.

Caution: Inbound update storage is a memory-intensive operation. The entire BGP update database from the neighbor is stored in memory regardless of the inbound policy results applied on the neighbor.

BGP Extended Communities (RFC 4360)

BGP Extended Communities, as defined in RFC 4360, is an optional transitive BGP attribute. It provides two major advantages over Standard Communities:

• The range is extended from 4-octet (AA:NN) to 8-octet (Type:Value) to provide enough number communities.
• Communities are structured using a new “Type” field (1 or 2-octets), allowing you to provide granular control/filter routing information based on the type of extended communities.

The BGP Extended Community commands are:

• deny
• deny regex
• description
• ip extcommunity-list
• match extcommunity
• permit
• permit regex
• set extcommunity rt
• set extcommunity soo
  • show ip bgp ipv4 extcommunity-list
  • show ip bgp paths extcommunity
  • show ip extcommunity-list
  • show running-config extcommunity-list

deny

Use this feature to reject (deny) from the two types of extended communities, Route Origin (rt) or Site-of-Origin (soo).

Syntax

deny {rt | soo} {as4 ASN4:NN | ASN:NNNN | IPADDR:NN}

To remove (delete) the rule, use the no deny {rt | soo} {as4 ASN4:NN| ASN:NNNN| IPADDR:NN} command.

Parameters

rt Enter the keyword rt to designate a Route Origin community
soo	Enter the keyword soo to designate a Site-of-Origin community (also known as Route Origin).
as4 ASN4:NN	Enter the keyword as4 followed by the 4-octet AS specific extended community number in the format ASN4:NN (4-Byte AS number:2-Byte community value).
ASN:NNNN	Enter the 2-octet AS specific extended community number in the format ASN:NNNN (2-Byte AS number:4-Byte community value).
IPADDR:NN	Enter the IP address specific extended community in the format IPADDR:NN (4-Byte IPv4 Unicast Address:2-Byte community value)

Content Addressable Memory (CAM) for ExaScale

Overview

This chapter discusses CAM commands for the E-Series ExaScale × platform. Refer to Chapter 14, Content Addressable Memory (CAM) for information on the commands for the E-Series TeraScale platform

Warning: If you are using these features for the first time, contact the Dell Force10 Technical Assistance Center (TAC) for guidance. For information on contacting Dell Force10 TAC, visit the Dell Force10 website at www.force10networks.com/support

Commands

This chapter includes the following commands:

• cam-profile template [10M-CAM]
- enable
- flow
- layer-2
- layer-3
- microcode
• show cam-profile
- test cam-profile

Important Points to Remember

• The Default CAM-profile is supported on E-Series ExaScale with FTOS version 8.1.1.0 and later.
• The recommended, pre-defined CAM-profile templates are supported on E-Series ExaScale with FTOS version 8.2.1.0 and later.
• The CAM-profile template is applied to entire system. You must save the running-configuration to enable the change. Saving the running-configuration also ensures that the CAM-profile selected remains in the case of a reboot.
• All components in the chassis must have the same CAM-profile and microcode. The profile and microcode loaded on the primary RPM determines the profile that is required on all other chassis components.
• If a newly installed line card has a profile different from the primary RPM, the card reboots so that it can load the proper profile.
• If the standby RPM has a profile different from the primary RPM, the RPM reboots so that it can load the proper profile.
• Enabling a CAM-profile immediately replaces the existing CAM-profile. You will be prompted to save the running-configuration and reload the system to implement the new CAM-profile.

The CAM-profile commands are:

cam-profile template [10M-CAM]

Content Addressable Memory (CAM)

Overview

Content Addressable Memory (CAM) commands are supported C-Series, E-Series TeraScale and S-Series, as indicated by the symbols under each command heading: C E T S

This chapter includes information relating to the E-Series TeraScale platform. Refer to Chapter 13, Content Addressable Memory (CAM) for ExaScale for information on the commands for the E-Series ExaScale platform.

Note: Not all CAM commands are supported on all platforms. Be sure to note the platform symbol when looking for a command.

Warning: If you are using these features for the first time, contact the Dell Force10 Technical Assistance Center (TAC) for guidance. For information on contacting Dell Force10 TAC, visit the Dell Force10 website at www.force10networks.com/support

This chapter includes the following sections:

• CAM Profile Commands
• CAM IPv4flow Commands
• CAM Layer 2 ACL Commands

CAM Profile Commands

The CAM profiling feature enables you to partition the CAM to best suit your application. For example:

• Configure more Layer 2 FIB entries when the system is deployed as a switch.
• Configure more Layer 3 FIB entries when the system is deployed as a router.
• Configure more ACLs (when IPv6 is not employed).
• Hash MPLS packets based on source and destination IP addresses for LAGs.
• Hash based on bidirectional flow for LAGs.
• Optimize the VLAN ACL Group feature, which permits group VLANs for IP egress ACLs.

Important Points to Remember

• CAM Profiles are available on FTOS versions 6.3.1.1 and later for the E-Series TeraScale. Refer to Chapter 13, Content Addressable Memory (CAM) for ExaScale for information on the commands for the E-Series ExaScale platform.
• FTOS versions 7.8.1.0 and later support CAM allocations on the C-Series and S-Series.
• All line cards within a single system must have the same CAM profile (including CAM sub-region configurations); this profile must match the system CAM profile (the profile on the primary RPM).
• FTOS automatically reconfigures the CAM profile on line cards and the secondary RPM to match the system CAM profile by saving the correct profile on the card and then rebooting it.
• The CAM configuration is applied to entire system when you use CONFIGURATION mode commands. You must save the running-configuration to affect the change.
• When budgeting your CAM allocations for ACLs and QoS configurations, remember that ACL and QoS rules might consume more than one CAM entry depending on complexity. For example, TCP and UDP rules with port range options might require more than one CAM entry.
• After you install a secondary RPM, copy the running-configuration to the startup-configuration so that the new RPM has the correct CAM profile.
• You MUST save your changes and reboot the system for CAM profiling or allocations to take effect.

The CAM Profiling commands are:

• cam-acl (Configuration)
  • cam-acl (EXEC Privilege)
• cam-optimization
• cam-profile (Config)
  • show cam-acl
  • show cam-profile
  • show cam-usage
• test cam-usage

cam-acl (Configuration)

Allocate CAM for IPv4 and IPv6 ACLs

Syntax

cam-acl {default | l2acl number ipv4acl number ipv6acl number, ipv4qos number l2qos number, l2pt number ipmacacl number ecfmacl number [vman-qos | vman-dual-qos number}

Parameters

default	Use the default CAM profile settings, and set the CAM as follows. • L3 ACL (ipv4acl): 6 • L2 ACL(l2acl): 5 • IPv6 L3 ACL (ipv6acl): 0 • L3 QoS (ipv4qos): 1 • L2 QoS (l2qos): 1
l2acl number ipv4acl number ipv6acl number, ipv4qos number l2qos number, l2pt number ipmacacl number ecfmacl number [vman-qos | vman-dual-qos number	Allocate space to each CAM region. Enter the CAM profile name followed by the amount to be allotted. The total space allocated must equal 13. The ipv6acl range must be a factor of 2.

Command Modes

CONFIGURATION

Command History

Version 8.3.1.0

Added ecfmacl, vman-qos, and vman-dual-qos keywords.

Version 8.2.1.0 Introduced on the S-Series

Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced on the C-Series

Usage Information

You must save the new CAM settings to the startup-config (write-mem or copy run start) then reload the system for the new settings to take effect.

The total amount of space allowed is 16 FP Blocks. System flow requires 3 blocks and these cannot be reallocated.

When configuring space for IPv6 ACLs, the total number of Blocks must equal 13.

Ranges for the CAM profiles are 1-10, except for the ipv6acl profile which is 0-10. The ipv6acl allocation must be a factor of 2 (2, 4, 6, 8, 10).

Command History

Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced

Usage Information

This command applies to both IPv4 and IPv6 CAM Profiles, but is best used when verifying QoS optimization for IPv6 ACLs.

QoS Optimization for IPv6 ACLs does not impact the CAM usage for applying a policy on a single (or the first of several) interfaces. It is most useful when a policy is applied across multiple interfaces; it can reduce the impact to CAM usage across subsequent interfaces.

Example The following examples show some sample output when using the test cam-usage command.

CAM IPv4flow Commands

IPv4Flow sub-partitions are supported on E-Series TeraScale platform

The 18-megabit user configurable CAM is divided into multiple regions such as Layer 2 FIB, Layer 3 FIB, IPv4Flow, IPv4 Ingress ACL, etc. The IPv4Flow region is further sub-divided into 5 regions: System Flow, QoS, PBR, Trace-lists, Multicast FIB & ACL.

You can change the amount of CAM space allocated to each sub-region. You can configure the IPv4Flow region in both EtherScale and TeraScale. In EtherScale, these commands allocate CAM space for IPv4Flow sub-regions and the IPv4 ACL region.

Like CAM profiles, you can configure the IPv4Flow region from EXEC Privilege and CONFIGURATION mode.

The CAM IPv4flow commands are:

• cam ipv4flow (EXEC Privilege)
• cam-ipv4flow (CONFIGURATION)
• show cam-ipv4flow

cam ipv4flow (EXEC Privilege)

CAM Layer 2 ACL Commands

IPv4Flow sub-partitions are supported on the E-Series TeraScale platform

The CAM Layer 2 ACL commands are:

• cam l2acl (EXEC Privilege)
• cam-12acl (CONFIGURATION)
• show cam-12acl

The 18-megabit user configurable CAM is divided into multiple regions such as Layer 2 FIB, Layer 3 FIB, IPv4Flow, IPv4 Ingress ACL, etc. The Layer 2 ACL region is further sub-divided into 6 regions: Sysflow, L2ACL, PVST, QoS, L2PT, FRRP.

You can change the amount of CAM space, in percentage, allocated to each sub-region. The amount of space that you can distribute to the sub-partitions is equal to the amount of CAM space that the selected CAM profile allocates to the Layer 2 ACL partition. FTOS requires that you specify the amount of CAM space for all sub-partitions and that the sum of all sub-partitions is 100%.

Like CAM profiles, you can configure the Layer 2 ACL partition from EXEC Privilege mode or CONFIGURATION mode.

cam l2acl (EXEC Privilege)

Re-allocate the amount of space, in percentage, for each Layer 2 ACL CAM sub-partition.

This command is deprecated as of FTOS 8.3.1.0

Configuration Rollback

Overview

The Configuration Rollback feature is enabled on the C-Series and E-Series . Configuration Rollback enables you to archive your running configurations for future use. This feature also enables you to replace your running configuration with an archived running configuration without rebooting the chassis. Once you load an archived configuration, you have the option to confirm the replacement or revert (roll back) to your previous configuration. This rollback feature enables you to view and test a configuration before completing the configuration change.

Note: Archive files are stored on the internal flash in a hidden directory named CFGARCH. You may have to reboot the chassis when rolling back to a feature that explicitly requires it, like CAM profiles.

Commands

The Configuration Rollback commands are:

• archive
• archive backup
• archive config
• archive delete
• configure confirm
• configure replace
• configure terminal
• configuration mode exclusive
• debug rollback
  • maximum number
  • show archive

Equal Cost Multi-Path

Overview

The characters that appear below command headings indicate support for the associated Dell Force10 platform, as follows:

• C-Series: ©
• E-Series: E
• S-Series: 5

Commands

The ECMP commands are:

• hash-algorithm
• hash-algorithm ecmp
• hash-algorithm seed
• ip ecmp-deterministic
• ipv6 ecmp-deterministic

hash-algorithm

E

Change the hash algorithm used to distribute traffic flows across a Port Channel. The ECMP, LAG, and line card options are supported only on the E-Series TeraScale and ExaScale chassis.

Syntax

hash-algorithm {algorithm-number} {ecmp {checksum| crc | xor} [number] lag {checksum| crc | xor} [number] nh-ecmp {checksum| crc | xor} [number] linecard number ip-sa-mask value ip-da-mask value}

To return to the default hash algorithm, use the no hash-algorithm command.

To return to the default the Equal-cost Multipath Routing (ECMP) hash algorithm, use the no hash-algorithm ecmp algorithm-value command.

To remove the hash algorithm on a particular line card, use the no hash-algorithm linecard number command.

Parameters

algorithm-number	Enter the algorithm number. Range: 0 to 47 Note: For EtherScale, range 0 to 15 is valid; 16 to 47 will be considered as 15.
ecmp hash algorithm value	TeraScale and ExaScale Only: Enter the keyword ecmp followed by the ECMP hash algorithm value. Range: 0 to 47
lag hash algorithm value	TeraScale and ExaScale Only: Enter the keyword lag followed by the LAG hash algorithm value. Range: 0 to 47
nh-ecmp hash algorithm value	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword nh-ecmp followed by the ECMP hash algorithm value.
linecard number	(OPTIONAL) TeraScale and ExaScale Only: Enter the keyword linecard followed by the line card slot number. Range: 0 to 13 on an E1200/E1200i, 0 to 6 on an E600/E600i, and 0 to 5 on an E300
ip-sa-mask value	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword ip-sa-mask followed by the ECMP/LAG hash mask value. Range: 0 to FF Default: FF
ip-da-mask value	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword ip-da-mask followed by the ECMP/LAG hash mask value. Range: 0 to FF Default: FF

Defaults

0 for hash-algorithm value on TeraScale and ExaScale

IPSA and IPDA mask value is FF for line card

Command Modes
CONFIGURATION

Command History	Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale
	Version 7.8.1.0 Added nh-ecmp option
	Version 7.7.1.1 Added nh-ecmp option
	Version 6.5.1.0 Added support for the line card option on TeraScale only
	Version 6.3.1.0 Added the support for ECMP and LAG on TeraScale only

Usage Information

Set the he default hash-algorithm method on ExaScale systems to ensure CRC is not used for LAG. For example, hash-algorithm ecmp xor lag checksum nh-ecmp checksum

To achieve the functionality of hash-align on the ExaScale platform, do not use CRC as a hash-algorithm method

The hash value calculated with the hash-algorithm command is unique to the entire chassis. The hash algorithm command with the line card option changes the hash for a particular line card by applying the mask specified in the IPSA and IPDA fields.

The line card option is applicable with the lag-hash-align microcode only (refer to cam-profile (Config)). Any other microcode returns an error message as follows:

Force10(conf)#hash-algorithm linecard 5 ip-sa-mask ff ip-da-mask ff

% Error: This command is not supported in the current microcode configuration.

In addition, the linecard number ip-sa-mask value ip-da-mask value option has the following behavior to maintain bi-directionality:

• When hashing is done on both IPSA and IPDA, the ip-sa-mask and ip-da-mask values must be equal. (Single Linecard)
• When hashing is done only on IPSA or IPDA, FTOS maintains bi-directionality with masks set to XX 00 for line card 1 and 00 XX for line card 2 (ip-sa-mask and ip-da-mask). The mask value must be the same for both line cards when using multiple line cards as ingress (where XX is any value from 00 to FF for both line cards). For example, assume traffic is flowing between linecard 1 and linecard 2:

hash-algorithm linecard 1 ip-sa-mask aa ip-da-mask 00

hash-algorithm linecard 2 ip-sa-mask 00 ip-da-mask aa

The different hash algorithms are based on the number of Port Channel members and packet values. The default hash algorithm (number 0) yields the most balanced results in various test scenarios, but if the default algorithm does not provide a satisfactory distribution of traffic, then use the hash-algorithm command to designate another algorithm.

When a Port Channel member leaves or is added to the Port Channel, the hash algorithm is recalculated to balance traffic across the members.

On TeraScale if the keyword ECMP or LAG is not entered, FTOS assumes it to be common for both. If the keyword ECMP or LAG is entered separately, both should fall in the range of 0 to 23 or 24 to 47 since compression enable/disable is common for both.

TeraScale and ExaScale support the range 0-47. The default for ExaScale is 24.

For EtherScale, only the range 0 to 15 is valid; 16 to 47 is considered as 15.

0-11	Compression Enabled
	rotate [0 - 11]
12 - 23	Compression Enabled
	shift [0 - 11]
24 - 35	Compression Disabled
	rotate [0 - 11]

Related Commands

load-balance (E-Series) Change the traffic balancing method.

hash-algorithm ecmp

Change the hash algorithm used to distribute traffic flows across an ECMP (equal-cost multipath routing) group.

Syntax

hash-algorithm ecmp {crc-upper} | {dest-ip} | {lsb}

To return to the default hash algorithm, use the no hash-algorithm ecmp command.

Parameters

crc-upper	Uses the upper 32 bits of the key for the hash computationDefault: crc-lower
dest-ip	Uses the destination IP for ECMP hashingDefault: enabled
lsb	Returns the LSB of the key as the hashDefault: crc-lower

Defaults

crc-lower, dest-ip enabled

Command Modes

CONFIGURATION

Command History

Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on S-Series

Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

Usage Information

The hash value calculated with the hash-algorithm command is unique to the entire chassis. The default ECMP hash configuration is crc-lower. This takes the lower 32 bits of the hash key to compute the egress port and is the “fall-back” configuration if the user hasn’t configured anything else.

The different hash algorithms are based on the number of ECMP group members and packet values. The default hash algorithm yields the most balanced results in various test scenarios, but if the default algorithm does not provide satisfactory distribution of traffic, then use this command to designate another algorithm.

When a member leaves or is added to the ECMP group, the hash algorithm is recalculated to balance traffic across the members.

Related Commands

hash-algorithm seed

Select the seed value for the ECMP, LAG, and NH hashing algorithm.

Syntax

hash-algorithm seed value [linecard slot] [port-set number]

Parameters

seed value	Enter the keyword followed by the seed value. Range: 0 - 4095
linecard slot	Enter the keyword followed by the line card slot number.
port-set number	Enter the keyword followed by the line card port-pipe number.

Defaults

None

Command Modes

CONFIGURATION

Command History

Version 8.3.1.0 Introduced on E-Series.

Usage Information

Deterministic ECMP sorts ECMPs in order even though RTM provides them in a random order. However, the hash algorithm uses as a seed the lower 12 bits of the chassis MAC, which yields a different hash result for every chassis. This means that for a given flow, even though the prefixes are sorted, two unrelated chassis will select different hops.

FTOS provides a CLI-based solution for modifying the hash seed to ensure that on each configured system, the ECMP selection is same. When configured, the same seed is set for ECMP, LAG, and NH, and is used for incoming traffic only.

Note: While the seed is stored separately on each port-pipe, the same seed is used across all CAMs.

Note: You cannot separate LAG and ECMP, but you can use different algorithms across chassis with the same seed. If LAG member ports span multiple port-pipes and line cards, set the seed to the same value on each port-pipe to achieve deterministic behavior.

Note: If the hash algorithm configuration is removed. Hash seed will not go to original factory default setting.

ip ecmp-deterministic

Deterministic ECMP Next Hop arranges all ECMPs in order before writing them into the CAM. For example, suppose the RTM learns 8 ECMPs in the order that the protocols and interfaces came up. In this case, the FIB and CAM sort them so that the ECMPs are always arranged. This implementation ensures that every chassis having the same prefixes orders the ECMPs the same.

With 8 or less ECMPs, the ordering is lexicographic and deterministic. With more than 8 ECMPs, ordering is deterministic, but it is not in lexicographic order.

Syntax

ip ecmp-deterministic

Version 8.3.1.0 Introduced on E-Series.

Usage Information

After enabling IPv6 Deterministic ECMP, traffic loss occurs for a few milliseconds while FTOS sorts the CAM entries.

ipv6 ecmp-deterministic

Deterministic ECMP Next Hop arranges all ECMPs in order before writing them into the CAM. For example, suppose the RTM learns 8 ECMPs in the order that the protocols and interfaces came up. In this case, the FIB and CAM sort them so that the ECMPs are always arranged. This implementation ensures that every chassis having the same prefixes orders the ECMPs the same.

	With 8 or less ECMPs, the ordering is lexicographic and deterministic. With more than 8 ECMPs, ordering is deterministic, but it is not in lexicographic order.

Far-End Failure Detection (FEFD)

Overview

FTOS supports Far-End Failure Detection (FEFD) on the Ethernet interfaces of the E-Series, as indicated by the character that appears below each command heading. This feature detects and reports far-end link failures.

• FEFD is not supported on the Management interface.
- During an RPM failover, FEFD is operationally disabled for approximately 8-10 seconds.
- By default, FEFD is disabled.

Commands

The FEFD commands are:

• debug fefd
  • fefd
• fefd mode
• fefd-global
• fefd disable
• fefd interval
• fefd-global interval
• fefd reset
  • show fefd

debug fefd

E

Enable debugging of FEFD.

Syntax

debug fefd {events | packets} [interface]

To disable debugging of FEFD, use the no debug fefd {events | packets} [interface] command.

Parameters

events

Enter the keyword events to enable debugging of FEFD state changes.

	packets	Enter the keyword packets to enable debugging of FEFD to view information on packets sent and received.
	interface	(OPTIONAL) Enter the following keywords and slot/port or number information:For a 1-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keywordGigabitEthernetfollowed by the slot/port information.For a SONET interface, enter the keywordsonetfollowed by the slot/port information.For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keywordTenGigabitEthernetfollowed by the slot/port information.

Force10 Resilient Ring Protocol (FRRP)

Overview

Force10 Resilient Ring Protocol (FRRP) is supported on platforms C E S

FRRP is a proprietary protocol for that offers fast convergence in a Layer 2 network without having to run the Spanning Tree Protocol. The Resilient Ring Protocol is an efficient protocol that transmits a high-speed token across a ring to verify the link status. All the intelligence is contained in the master node with practically no intelligence required of the transit mode.

Commands

The FRRP commands are:

• clear frrp
• debug frrp
• description
• disable
• interface
• member-vlan
  • mode
• protocol frrp
  • show frrp
• timer

Important Points to Remember

• FRRP is media- and speed-independent.
• FRRP is a Dell Force10 proprietary protocol that does not interoperate with any other vendor.
• Spanning Tree must be disabled on both primary and secondary interfaces before Resilient Ring protocol is enabled.
• A VLAN configured as control VLAN for a ring cannot be configured as control or member VLAN for any other ring.
• Member VLANs across multiple rings are not supported in Master nodes.
• If multiple rings share one or more member VLANs, they cannot share any links between them.
  • Each ring can have only one Master node; all others are Transit nodes.

clear frrp

Clear the FRRP statistics counters.

Syntax

clear frrp [ring-id]

Parameters

ring-id

(Optional) Enter the ring identification number.

Range: 1 to 255

Command Modes

conf-callhome-actionlist-name

Command History

Version 7.7.1.0 Introduced on C-Series and E-Series

Usage Information

If you execute this command, data gathered by the action list invoked by the default-action command will be saved in a local file. The file will have the same name as the action list and with a time stamp appended to the file name.

When saved in flash, the file name format is:

flash:/-.ftsa

For example: flash:/hardwareAction-02_16_34 423.ftsa

Because the time stamp makes each file unique, files will not be overwritten if the action list executes more than once. If this log-only command is not executed, or if no log-only option is executed, then the collected data will be sent in an FTSA email.

When sent as an mail attachment, the file name format is:

-.txt

For example: hardwareAction-02_16_34 423.txt

If the collected data is split due to a size limit, a sequential version number will be added to it.

For example: hardwareAction-02_16_34 423_0.txt

run-cpu

Set whether the action list associated with the selected test list should be executed, as a function of CPU utilization.

Syntax
run-cpu {cpu | rpm-any} {less-than | greater-than} percentage

Parameters
	percentage Enter a CPU utilization percentage. Range: 0–100
	cpu Select a CPU: CP, LP, RP1, or RP2
	rpm-any Monitor all RPM CPUs for the run-cpu condition (CP, RP1, and RP2)

Default
None

Command Mode CALL-HOME POLICY

Command History	Version 8.2.1.0 Added variable cpu, and keyword rpm-any. Keyword more-than changed to greater-than. Keyword unconditional removed.
	Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced on C-Series and E-Series

Usage

The purpose of this command is to determine whether the action list associated with this test list should be executed, depending on whether the CPU utilization at the time the test list is executed meets the configured parameter:

• If less-than is configured, the user might be worried about executing the action list in high CPU usage conditions. In such a case, for example, the user might configure run-cpu less-than 90. When a match is made to the test list, the CPU 1-minute average is checked and if it is 85% , for example, then the associated action list will be executed. If the current CPU usage is at 90% or greater, the action list will not be executed. In this case, FTSA logs this in the syslog to note that a match was made, what the match was, and that the action list was not executed because CPU was too high.
• If greater-than is configured, it is probably because the user does not care about results that may occur when CPU usage is low. For example, a user might configure run-cpu greater-than 60. If a match is found for the test list and the 1-minute CPU average is 40% , then the action list is not executed; if it is 61% or greater, then it is executed.

Version 8.2.1.0

Removed message-text keyword. Added operators.

Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced on C-Series and E-Series

Usage Information

FTSA avoids false triggers when a counter rolls over by ignoring the first sample taken after a rollover.

Also, FTSA does not allow you to configure a test that makes no sense because of a comparator that is out of range. For example, by entering cpu-5-min increase number 150, you would be looking for a difference between two CPU percentage utilization samples of at least 150. 150 is not possible, because percentage utilization can only go up to 100, so FTSA displays the acceptable range, as shown below, and will issue an error message if you try to enter a value that is out of range.

Examples

Force10(conf-call-home-testlist-test)#test-condition cpu-1-min increase number ?
<0-100> Enter the boolean comparison value
Force10(conf-call-home-testlist-test)#test-condition cpu-1-min increase number
80 sample 5
Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition cpu-5-min decrease ?
<0-100> Enter the boolean comparison value
Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition cpu-5-min decrease 10 

In this next example, the configuration is to subtract the bit rate that was found in the second sample from the bit rate found in the first sample. If the difference is at least 10Mb, then any associated action list will be invoked.

Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition interface-bit-rate ?

output Output interface
Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition interface-bit-rate input ?
<0-3> Slot number
Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition interface-bit-rate input 1 decrease ?
<0-10000> Enter the boolean comparison value in mbits/sec
Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition interface-bit-rate input 1 decrease 10 ?
sample The time interval to check the condition
<cr>
Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition interface-bit-rate input 1 decrease 10 sample ?
<2-100> Enter the sample value (default = 2)
Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition interface-bit-rate input 1 decrease 10 sample 2 

Here are other examples of test-condition configuration statements.

Force10 (conf-call-home-testlist-test)#test-condition interface-crc 1 decrease number 90 sample 5
Force10 (conf-call-home-testlist-test)#test-condition memory-free-percent no-change sample 4

Usage Information

FTOS does not allow you to configure a test that makes no sense, such as cpu-5-min greater-than number 150. CPU percentage utilization can only go up to 100, so 150 is not possible. FTOS displays the acceptable range, as shown below

Command History

Version 8.2.1.0 Deprecated.

Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced on C-Series and E-Series

Usage Information

In the following example:

• The search string can be used for both “display xml” and normal “show command” output.
• The search string is down.

Note that the search target, in this example, is enclosed within double quotes. If either string contains spaces, it must be enclosed in quotes or it will be truncated at the first whitespace.

The search string is compared against an entire text message, so a short string, such as the number zero, is likely to produce many unintended matches. Therefore, the search string should be as long as possible to guarantee as close a match as possible to the data that you want to match. However, the maximum length of a string is 64 characters.

Example

Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition message-text ?
command Enter the show command
Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition message-text command ?
WORD Enter the show command
Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition message-text command "show interfaces gi 1/0 | display xml" ?
equal-to Keyword boolean value equal to
Force10(conf-callhome-testlist-test)#test-condition message-text command "show interfaces gi 1/0 | display xml" equal-to ?

GARP VLAN Registration (GVRP)

Overview

GARP VLAN Registration (GVRP) is supported on platforms ☐, ☐, and ☐

Commands

The GVRP commands are:

• bpdu-destination-mac-address
- clear gvrp statistics
- debug gvrp
- disable
- carp timers
- gvrp enable
- gvrp registration
- protocol gvrp
• show config
• show garp timers
• show gvrp
• show gvrp statistics on page 27

The GARP (Generic Attribute Registration Protocol) mechanism allows the configuration of a GARP participant to propagate through a network quickly. A GARP participant registers or de-registers its attributes with other participants by making or withdrawing declarations of attributes. At the same time, based on received declarations or withdrawals, GARP handles attributes of other participants.

GVRP enables a device to propagate local VLAN registration information to other participant devices and dynamically update the VLAN registration information from other devices. The registration information updates local databases regarding active VLAN members and through which port the VLANs can be reached.

GVRP ensures that all participants on a bridged LAN maintain the same VLAN registration information. The VLAN registration information propagated by GVRP include both manually configured local static entries and dynamic entries from other devices.

GVRP participants have the following components:

• The GVRP application
• GARP Information Propagation (GIP)
• GARP Information Declaration (GID)

Important Points to Remember

• GVRP is supported on Layer 2 ports only.
- All VLAN ports added by GVRP are tagged.
- GVRP is supported on untagged ports belonging to a default VLAN, and tagged ports.
- GVRP cannot be enabled on untagged ports belonging to a non-default VLAN unless native VLAN is turned on.
• GVRP requires end stations with dynamic access NICs.
- Based on updates from GVRP-enabled devices, GVRP allows the system to dynamically create a port-based VLAN (unspecified) with a specific VLAN ID and a specific port.
- On a port-by-port basis, GVRP allows the system to learn about GVRP updates to an existing port-based VLAN with that VLAN ID and IEEE 802.1Q tagging.
- GVRP allows the system to send dynamic GVRP updates about your existing port-based VLAN.
- GVRP updates are not sent to any blocked Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) ports. GVRP operates only on ports that are in the forwarding state.
- GVRP operates only on ports that are in the STP forwarding state. If GVRP is enabled, a port that changes to the STP forwarding state automatically begins to participate in GVRP. A port that changes to an STP state other than forwarding no longer participates in GVRP.
- VLANs created dynamically with GVRP exist only as long as a GVRP-enabled device is sending updates. If the devices no longer send updates, or GVRP is disabled, or the system is rebooted, all dynamic VLANs are removed.
- GVRP manages the active topology, not non-topological data such as VLAN protocols. If a local bridge needs to classify and analyze packets by VLAN protocols, you must manually configure protocol-based VLANs, and simply rely on GVRP for VLAN updates. But if the local bridge needs to know only how to reach a given VLAN, then GVRP provides all necessary information.
- The VLAN topologies that GVRP learns are treated differently from VLANs that are statically configured. The GVRP dynamic updates are not saved in NVRAM, while static updates are saved in NVRAM. When GVRP is disabled, the system deletes all VLAN interfaces that were learned through GVRP and leaves unchanged all VLANs that were manually configured.

Command Modes	CONFIGURATION-GVRP
Command History	Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on C, E, and S-Series
Usage Information	Join Timer—Join messages announce the willingness to register some attributes with other participants. Each GARP application entity sends a Join message twice, for reliability, and uses a join timer to set the sending interval.Leave Timer—Leave announces the willingness to de-register with other participants. Together with the Join, Leave messages help GARP participants complete attribute reregistration and de-registration. Leave Timer starts upon receipt of aleavemessage sent for de-registering some attribute information. If ajinnmessage is notreceived before theleavetime expires, the GARP application entity removes the attribute information as requested.Leave All Timer—The Leave All Timer starts when a GARP application entity starts. When this timer expires, the entity sends aleave-allmessage so that other entities can re-register their attribute information. Then, theleave-alltime begins again.

gvrp registration

Configure the GVRP register type.

Syntax gvrp registration {fixed | normal | forbidden}

To return to the default, use the gvrp register normal command.

Parameters

fixed	Enter the keyword fixed followed by the VLAN range in a comma separated VLAN ID set.
normal	Enter the keyword normal followed by the VLAN range in a comma separated VLAN ID set.This is the default
forbidden	Enter the keyword forbidden followed by the VLAN range in a comma separated VLAN ID set.

Defaults Command Modes

Default registration is normal

CONFIGURATION-INTERFACE

Command History

Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on C, E, and S-Series

Usage Information

The fixed registration prevents an interface, configured via the command line to belong to a VLAN (static configuration), from being un-configured when it receives a Leave message. Therefore, the registration mode on that interface is fixed.

The normal registration is the default registration. The port's membership in the VLANs depends on GVRP. The interface becomes a member of VLANs after learning about the VLAN through GVRP. If the VLAN is removed from the port that sends GVRP advertisements to this device, then the port will stop being a member of the VLAN.

The forbidden is used when you do not want the interface to advertise or learn about VLANs through GVRP.

Invalid messages/attributes skipped can occur in the following cases:

• The incoming GVRP PDU has an incorrect length.
• “End of PDU” was reached before the complete attribute could be parsed.
• The Attribute Type of the attribute that was being parsed was not the GVRP VID Attribute Type (0x01).
• The attribute that was being parsed had an invalid attribute length.
• The attribute that was being parsed had an invalid GARP event.
• The attribute that was being parsed had an invalid VLAN ID. The valid range is 1 - 4095.

A failed registration can occur for the following reasons:

- Join requests were received on a port that was blocked from learning dynamic VLANs (GVRP Blocking state).

- An entry for a new GVRP VLAN could not be created in the GVRP database.

High Availability (HA)

Overview

High Availability (HA) in FTOS is configuration synchronization to minimize recovery time in the event of a Route Processor Module (RPM) failure. The feature is available on the C-Series and E-Series where noted by these symbols under command headings: C E

FTOS on the E-Series supports RPM 1 + 1 redundancy. The Primary RPM performs all routing and control operations, while the Secondary RPM is online and monitoring the Primary RPM.

In general, a protocol is defined as “hitless” in the context of an RPM failure/failover, and not failures of a line card, SFM, or power module. A protocol is defined as hitless if an RPM failover has no impact on the protocol.

Some protocols must be specifically enabled for HA, and some protocols are only hitless if related protocols are also enabled as hitless (see the redundancy protocol command).

High Availability is supported on E-Series ExaScale with FTOS 8.1.1.0. and later.

Commands

The HA commands available in FTOS are:

• patch flash://RUNTIME_PATCH_DIR
• process restartable
  • redundancy auto-failover-limit
  • redundancy disable-auto-reboot
  • redundancy force-failover
  • redundancy primary
• redundancy protocol
  • redundancy reset-counter
  • redundancy sfm standby
  • redundancy synchronize
  • show patch
  • show processes restartable
  • show redundancy

patch flash://RUNTIME\_PATCH\_DIR

Insert an In-Service Modular Hot-Fix patch.

Syntax

patch flash://RUNTIME_PATCH_DIR/patch-filename

To remove the patch, enter no patch flash://RUNTIME_PATCH_DIR/patch-filename

Defaults

None

Command Modes

CONFIGURATION

Command History

Version 8.2.1.0 Introduced

Usage Information

The patch filename includes the FTOS version, the platform, the cpu, and the process it affects (FTOS-platform-cpu-process-patchversion.rtp). For example, a patch labeled

7.8.1.0-EH-rp2-l2mgr-1.rtp identifies that this patch applies to FTOS version 7.8.1.0 - E-Series platform, for RP2, addressing the layer 2 management process, and this is the first version of this patch.

There is no need to reload or reboot the system when the patch is inserted. The In-Service Modular patch replaces the existing process code. Once installation is complete, the system executes the patch code as though it was always there.

Related Commands

show patch

process restartable

Enable a process to be restarted. Restartability is subject to a maximum restart limit—the limit is defined as a configured amount of restarts within a configured amount of time. On the software exception that exceeds the limit, the system reloads (for systems with a single RPM) or fails over (for systems with dual RPMs).

Syntax

process restartable [process] [count number] [period minutes]

Parameters

process	Configure a process to be restartable.
count number	Enter the number of times a process can restart within the configured period.Range: 1-3Default: 3
period minutes	Enter the amount of time within which the process can restart count times.Range: 1-60 minutesDefault: 60 minutes

Defaults

By default, a process can be restarted a maximum of 3 times within 1 hour. On the exception that exceeds this limit, the system reloads or fails over.

Command History

Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on E-Series

Usage Information

If auto failover is disabled, enter the redundancy auto-failover-limit (without any parameters) to set auto failover to the default parameters (Count 3, Period 60 minutes). Use the show redundancy command to view the redundancy status.

When you change one or both of the optional parameters, FTOS checks that the interval between auto failovers is more than five (5) minutes. If the interval is less, FTOS returns a configuration error message.

redundancy disable-auto-reboot

Prevent the system from auto-rebooting the failed module.

Syntax

redundancy disable-auto-reboot [rpm| card number | all]

To return to the default, enter no redundancy disable-auto-reboot rpm.

Parameters

rpm

Enter the keyword rpm to disable auto-reboot of the failed RPM.

Defaults

Disabled (that is, the failed module is automatically rebooted).

CONFIGURATION

Command History	Version 8.3.1.0 Added the all option
	Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale
	Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on E-Series

Usage Information Enabling this command will keep the failed RPM in the failed state. If there are two RPMs in the system, enabling this command prevents the failed RPM from becoming a working Standby RPM. If there is only one RPM in the system, the failed RPM will not recover—this will effect the system.

redundancy force-failover

Force the secondary RPM to become primary RPM or force an SFM (on an E-Series chassis only) to become the standby SFM. This command can also be used to upgrade the software on one RPM from the other when the other has been loaded with the upgraded software.

Syntax redundancy force-failover {rpm | sfm [slot-number]}

Parameters	rpm	Enter the keyword rpm to force the secondary RPM to become the primary RPM.
	sfm slot-number	EtherScale Only—Enter the keyword sfm followed by the SFM slot number. Range: 0 to 8.

Defaults Not configured.

Command Modes EXEC Privilege

Command History	Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale
	Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series
	Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on E-Series

Usage Information This command can be used to provide a hitless or warm upgrade. A hitless upgrade means that a software upgrade does not require a reboot of the line cards. A warm upgrade means that a software upgrade requires a reset of the line cards and SFMs. A warm upgrade is possible for major releases and lower, while a hitless upgrade can only support patch releases.

You load the software upgrade on one RPM and then issue this command with the rpm keyword to move the software to the other RPM. The system senses the condition and provides a series of prompts appropriate to that context, as shown in the following example:

Note: On C-Series, this command could affect traffic (even during hot-failover) since the switch fabric present on the RPM is taken down during the failover.

Example

Figure 22-1. redundancy force-failover rpm Command Example

Force10#redundancy force-failover rpm Peer RPM's SW version is different but HA compatible. Failover can be done by warm or hitless upgrade. All linecards will be reset during warm upgrade.

Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)

Overview

The platforms on which a command is supported is indicated by the character — E for the E-Series, C for the C-Series, and S for the S-Series — that appears below each command heading.

This chapter contains the following sections:

• IGMP Commands
• IGMP Snooping Commands

IGMP Commands

FTOS supports IGMPv1/v2/v3 and is compliant with RFC-3376.

Important Points to Remember

• FTOS supports PIM-SM and PIM-SSM include and exclude modes.
• IGMPv2 is the default version of IGMP on interfaces. IGMPv3 can be configured on interfaces, and is backward compatible with IGMPv2.
• The maximum number of interfaces supported is 512 on the E-Series. On the C-Series and S-Series 31 interfaces are supported.
  • Maximum number of groups supported – no hard limit
• IGMPv3 router interoperability with IGMPv2 and IGMPv1 routers on the same subnet is not supported.
• An administrative command (ip igmp version) is added to manually set the IGMP version.
• All commands, previously used for IGMPv2, are compatible with IGMPv3.

The commands include:

• clear ip igmp groups
• debug ip igmp
• ip igmp access-group
• ip igmp group-join-limit
• ip igmp immediate-leave
• ip igmp last-member-query-interval
• ip igmp querier-timeout
• ip igmp query-interval

• ip igmp query-max-resp-time

• ip igmp ssm-map

• ip igmp static-group
• ip igmp version
  • show ip igmp groups
  • show ip igmp interface
  • show ip igmp ssm-map

Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced on S-Series

Version 7.7.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

	Version 7.5.1.0 Expanded to support the exclude and include options
	E-Series legacy command
Usage Information	A group in the include mode should have at least one source address defined. In exclude mode if no source address is specified, FTOS implicitly assumes all sources are included. If neither include or exclude is specified, FTOS implicitly assumes a IGMPv2 static join.
	Command LimitationsOnly one mode (include or exclude) is permitted per multicast group per interface. To configure another mode, all sources belonging to the original mode must be unconfigured.If a static configuration is present and a packet for the same group arrives on an interface, the dynamic entry will completely overwrite all the static configuration for the group.

IGMP Snooping Commands

FTOS supports IGMP Snooping version 2 and 3 on all Dell Force10 systems:

• ip igmp snooping enable
• ip igmp snooping fast-leave
• ip igmp snooping flood
• ip igmp snooping last-member-query-interval
• ip igmp snooping mrouter
• ip igmp snooping querier
  • show ip igmp snooping mrouter

Important Points to Remember for IGMP Snooping

• FTOS supports version 1, version 2, and version 3 hosts.
• FTOS IGMP snooping implementation is based on IP multicast address (not based on Layer 2 multicast mac-address) and the IGMP snooping entries are in Layer 3 flow table not in Layer 2 FIB.
• FTOS IGMP snooping implementation is based on draft-ietf-magma-snoop-10.
• FTOS supports IGMP snooping on JUMBO enabled cards.
• IGMP snooping is not enabled by default on the switch.
• A maximum of 1800 groups and 600 VLAN are supported.
• IGMP snooping is not supported on default VLAN interface.
• IGMP snooping is not supported over VLAN-Stack-enabled VLAN interfaces (you must disable IGMP snooping on a VLAN interface before configuring VLAN-Stack-related commands).
• IGMP snooping does not react to Layer 2 topology changes triggered by STP.

- IGMP snooping reacts to Layer 2 topology changes triggered by MSTP by sending a general query on the interface that comes in FWD state.

Important Points to Remember for IGMP Querier

• The IGMP snooping Querier supports version 2.
- You must configure an IP address to the VLAN interface for IGMP snooping Querier to begin. The IGMP snooping Querier disables itself when a VLAN IP address is cleared, and then it restarts itself when an IP address is re-assigned to the VLAN interface.
- When enabled, IGMP snooping Querier will not start if there is a statically configured multicast router interface in the VLAN.
- When enabled, IGMP snooping Querier starts after one query interval in case no IGMP general query (with IP SA lower than its VLAN IP address) is received on any of its VLAN members.
- When enabled, IGMP snooping Querier periodically sends general queries with an IP source address of the VLAN interface. If it receives a general query on any of its VLAN member, it will check the IP source address of the incoming frame.

If the IP SA in the incoming IGMP general query frame is lower than the IP address of the VLAN interface, then the switch disables its IGMP snooping Querier functionality.

If the IP SA of the incoming IGMP general query is higher than the VLAN IP address, the switch will continue to work as an IGMP snooping Querier.

Usage Information Queriers normally send a certain number of queries when a leave message is received prior to deleting a group from the membership database. There may be situations in which fast deletion of a group is required. When IGMP fast leave processing is enabled, the switch will remove an interface from the multicast group as soon as it detects an IGMP version 2 leave message on the interface.

ip igmp snooping flood

This command controls the flooding behavior of unregistered multicast data packets. On the E-Series, when flooding is enabled (the default), unregistered multicast data traffic is flooded to all ports in a VLAN. When flooding is disabled, unregistered multicast data traffic is forwarded to only multicast router ports, both static and dynamic, in a VLAN. If there is no multicast router port in a VLAN, then unregistered multicast data traffic is dropped. On the

C-Series and S-Series, unregistered multicast data traffic is dropped when flooding is disabled; they do not forward the packets to multicast router ports. On the C-Series and S-Series, Layer 3 multicast must be disabled (no ip multicast-routing) in order to disable Layer 2 multicast flooding.

dampening

Configure dampening on an interface.

Syntax

dampening [[[half-life] [reuse-threshold]] [suppress-threshold]] [max-suppress-time]]

To disable dampening, use the no dampening [[[half-life] [reuse-threshold]]

[suppress-threshold]] [max-suppress-time]] command syntax.

Parameters

half-life	Enter the number of seconds after which the penalty is decreased. The penalty is decreased by half after the half-life period expires. Range: 1 to 30 seconds Default: 5 seconds
reuse-threshold	Enter a number as the reuse threshold, the penalty value below which the interface state is changed to “up”. Range: 1 to 20000 Default: 750
suppress-threshold	Enter a number as the suppress threshold, the penalty value above which the interface state is changed to “error disabled”. Range: 1 to 20000 Default: 2500
max-suppress-time	Enter the maximum number for which a route can be suppressed. The default is four times the half-life value. Range: 1 to 86400 Default: 20 seconds

Defaults

Disabled

Command Modes

INTERFACE (conf-if-)

Command History

Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on S-Series

Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced on E-Series

Example

Force10(conf-if-gi-3/2)#dampening 20 800 4500 120 Force10(conf-if-gi-3/2)#

Usage Information

With each flap, FTOS penalizes the interface by assigning a penalty (1024) that decays exponentially depending on the configured half-life. Once the accumulated penalty exceeds the suppress threshold value, the interface is moved to the error-disabled state. This interface state is deemed as “down” by all static/dynamic Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocols. The penalty is exponentially decayed based on the half-life timer. Once the penalty decays below the reuse threshold, the interface is enabled. The configured parameters should follow:

• suppress-threshold should be greater than reuse-threshold
- max-suppress-time should be at least 4 times half-life

Note: Dampening cannot be applied on an interface that is monitoring traffic for other interfaces.

flowcontrol

Control how the system responds to and generates 802.3x pause frames on 1Gig and 10Gig line cards.

Syntax

flowcontrol rx {off | on} tx {off | on} threshold {<1-2047><1-2013><1-2013>}

The threshold keyword is supported on C-Series and S-Series only.

Parameters

rx on	Enter the keywords rx on to process the received flow control frames on this port. This is the default value for the receive side.
rx off	Enter the keywords rx off to ignore the received flow control frames on this port.
tx on	Enter the keywords tx on to send control frames from this port to the connected device when a higher rate of traffic is received. This is the default value on the send side.
tx off	Enter the keywords tx off so that flow control frames are not sent from this port to the connected device when a higher rate of traffic is received.
threshold(C-Series and S-Series only)	When tx on is configured, you can set the threshold values for:Number of flow-control packet pointers: 1-2047 (default = 75)Flow-control buffer threshold in KB: 1-2013 (default = 49KB)Flow-control discard threshold in KB: 1-2013 (default= 75KB)

Defaults

C-Series: rx off tx off

E-Series: rx on tx on

S-Series: rx off tx off

Command Modes

INTERFACE

Command History

Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 6.5.1.9 and 7.4.1.0 Introduced on E-Series

Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced on C-Series and S-Series with thresholds

Usage Information

The globally assigned 48-bit Multicast address 01-80-C2-00-00-01 is used to send and receive pause frames. To allow full duplex flow control, stations implementing the pause operation instruct the MAC to enable reception of frames with a destination address equal to this multicast address.

The pause:

- Starts when either the packet pointer or the buffer threshold is met (whichever is met first). When the discard threshold is met, packets are dropped.

- Ends when both the packet pointer and the buffer threshold fall below 50% of the threshold settings.

The discard threshold defines when the interface starts dropping the packet on the interface. This may be necessary when a connected device does not honor the flow control frame sent by the S-Series. The discard threshold should be larger than the buffer threshold so that the buffer holds at least hold at least 3 packets.

On 4-port 10G line cards: Changes in the flow-control values are not reflected automatically in the show interface output for 10G interfaces. This issue results from the fact that 10G interfaces do not support auto-negotiation per-se. On 1G interfaces, changing the flow control values causes an automatic interface flap, after which PAUSE values are exchanged as part of the auto-negotiation process. As a workaround, apply the new settings, execute shut followed by no shut on the interface, and then check the running-config of the port.

Important Points to Remember

• Do not enable tx pause when buffer carving is enabled. Consult Dell Force10 TAC for information and assistance.
• Asymmetric flow control (rx on tx off or rx off tx on) setting for the interface port less than 100 Mb/s speed is not permitted. The following error is returned:

Can't configure Asymmetric flowcontrol when speed <1G, config ignored

- The only configuration applicable to half duplex ports is rx off tx off. The following error is returned:

Can't configure flowcontrol when half duplex is configure, config ignored

- Half duplex cannot be configured when the flow control configuration is on (default is rx on tx on). The following error is returned:

Can't configure half duplex when flowcontrol is on, config ignored

Note: The flow control must be off (rx off tx off) before configuring the half duplex.

- Speeds less than 1 Gig cannot be configured when the asymmetric flow control configuration is on. The following error is returned:

Can't configure speed <1G when Asymmetric flowcontrol is on, config ignored

• FTOS only supports rx on tx on and rx off tx off for speeds less than 1 Gig (Symmetric).
- On the C-Series and S-Series systems, the flow-control sender and receiver must be on the same port-pipe. Flow control is not supported across different port-pipes on the C-Series or S-Series system.

interface range

This command permits configuration of a range of interfaces to which subsequent commands are applied (bulk configuration). Using the interface range command, identical commands can be entered for a range of interface.

Syntax interface range interface, interface, ...

Parameters

interface,interface,...

Enter the keywordinterface rangeand one of the interfaces — slot/port,port-channel or VLAN number. Select the range of interfaces for bulk configuration.You can enter up to six comma separated ranges—spaces arenotrequired between the commas. Comma-separated ranges can include VLANs, port-channels and physical interfaces.Slot/Port information must contain a space before and after the dash. For example,interface range gigabitethernet 0/1 - 5 is valid;interface range gigabitethernet 0/1-5 is not valid.For a 1-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keywordGigabitEthernet followed by the slot/port information.For a Port Channel interface, enter the keywordport-channelfollowed by a number:C-Series and S-Series Range: 1-128E-Series Range: 1 to 32 for EtherScale, 1 to 255 for TeraScale and 1 to 512 for ExaScale.For a SONET interface, enter the keywordsonetfollowed by the slot/port information.For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keywordTenGigabitEthernet followed by the slot/port information.For a VLAN, enter the keywordvlanfollowed by a number from 1 to 4094.

Defaults This command has no default behavior or values.

Command Modes CONFIGURATION

Usage Information When creating an interface range, interfaces appear in the order they are entered; they are not sorted. The command verifies that interfaces are present (physical) or configured (logical). Important things to remember:

• Bulk configuration is created if at least one interface is valid.
• Non-existing interfaces are excluded from the bulk configuration with a warning message.
• The interface range prompt includes interface types with slot/port information for valid interfaces. The prompt allows for a maximum of 32 characters. If the bulk configuration exceeds 32 characters, it is represented by an ellipsis (...).
• When the interface range prompt has multiple port ranges, the smaller port range is excluded from the prompt.
• If overlapping port ranges are specified, the port range is extended to the smallest start port and the biggest end port.

Example

Only VLAN and port-channel interfaces created using the interface vlan and interface port-channel commands can be used in the interface range command.

Use the show running-config command to display the VLAN and port-channel interfaces. VLAN or port-channel interfaces that are not displayed in the show running-config command can not be used with the bulk configuration feature of the interface range command. You cannot create virtual interfaces (VLAN, Port-channel) using the interface range command.

Note: If a range has VLAN, physical, port-channel, and SONET interfaces, only commands related to physical interfaces can be bulk configured. To configure commands specific to VLAN, port-channel or SONET, only those respective interfaces should be configured in a particular range.

The following figure is an example of a single range bulk configuration.

Example

Figure 24-12. Single Range Bulk Configuration

Force10(config)# interface range gigabitethernet 5/1 - 23
Force10(config-if-range)# no shutdown
Force10(config-if-range)# 

The following figure shows how to use commas to add different interface types to the range enabling all Gigabit Ethernet interfaces in the range 5/1 to 5/23 and both Ten Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 1/1 and 1/2.

Example

Command History

Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

pre-Version 6.2.1.0 Introduced for E-Series

Usage Information

If the packet includes a Layer 2 header, the difference between the link MTU and IP MTU (ip mtu command) must be enough bytes to include the Layer 2 header:

• On C-Series, the IP MTU will get adjusted automatically when the Layer 2 MTU is configured with the mtu command.
• On the E-Series, you must compensate for a Layer 2 header when configuring IP MTU and link MTU on an Ethernet interface. Use the ip mtu command.

When you enter the no mtu command, FTOS reduces the IP MTU value to 1536 bytes. On the E-Series, to return the IP MTU value to the default, enter no ip mtu.

Link MTU and IP MTU considerations for port channels and VLANs are as follows.

port channels:

• All members must have the same link MTU value and the same IP MTU value.
• The port channel link MTU and IP MTU must be less than or equal to the link MTU and IP MTU values configured on the channel members.

Example: if the members have a link MTU of 2100 and an IP MTU 2000, the port channel's MTU values cannot be higher than 2100 for link MTU or 2000 bytes for IP MTU.

VLANs:

• All members of a VLAN must have same IP MTU value.
• Members can have different Link MTU values. Tagged members must have a link MTU 4 bytes higher than untagged members to account for the packet tag.
• The VLAN link MTU and IP MTU must be less than or equal to the link MTU and IP MTU values configured on the VLAN members.

Example

The VLAN contains tagged members with Link MTU of 1522 and IP MTU of 1500 and untagged members with Link MTU of 1518 and IP MTU of 1500. The VLAN's Link MTU cannot be higher than 1518 bytes and its IP MTU cannot be higher than 1500 bytes.

Table 24-3. Difference between Link MTU and IP MTU

Layer 2 Overhead Link MTU and IP MTU Delta
Ethernet (untagged) 18 bytes
VLAN Tag 22 bytes
Untagged Packet with VLAN-Stack Header 22 bytes
Tagged Packet with VLAN-Stack Header 26 bytes

Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on S-Series

Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

pre-Version 6.2.1.0 Introduced for E-Series

Usage Information

This command is supported on C-Series, S-Series, and E-Series (TeraScale and ExaScale) 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet interfaces.

The no negotiation auto command is only available if you first manually set the speed of a port to 10Mbits or 100Mbits.

The negotiation auto command provides a mode option for configuring an individual port to forced-master/forced slave once auto-negotiation is enabled

Note: The mode option is not available on non-10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet line cards.

Figure 24-20. negotiation auto Master/Slave Example

show Show autoneg configuration information
Force10(conf-if-autoneg)#mode ?
forced-master Force port to master mode
forced-slave Force port to slave mode
Force10(conf-if-autoneg)# 

If the mode option is not used, the default setting is slave. If you do not configure forced-master or forced slave on a port, the port negotiates to either a master or a slave state. Port status is one of the following:

• Forced-master
• Force-slave
• Master
• Slave
• Auto-neg Error—typically indicates that both ends of the node are configured with forced-master or forced-slave.

Caution: Ensure that one end of your node is configured as forced-master and one is configured as forced-slave. If both are configured the same (that is forced-master or forced-slave), the show interfaces command will flap between an auto-neg-error and forced-master/slave states.

You can display master/slave settings with the show interfaces command.

Force10(conf)#interface gi 7/0 Force10(conf-if-gi-7/0)#portmode hybrid Force10(conf-if-gi-7/0)#interface vlan 10 Force10(conf-if-vl-10)#untagged gi 7/0 Force10(conf-if-vl-10)#interface vlan 20 Force10(conf-if-vl-20)#tagged gi 7/0 Force10(conf-if-vl-20)#

Usage Information

The figure above sets a port as hybrid, makes the port a tagged member of VLAN 20, and an untagged member of VLAN 10, which becomes the native VLAN of the port. The port will now accept:

• untagged frames and classify them as VLAN 10 frames
  • VLAN 20 tagged frames

The next figure is an example show output with “Hybrid” as the newly added value for 802.1QTagged. The options for this field are:

• True—port is tagged
• False—port is untagged
• Hybrid—port accepts both tagged and untagged frames

Example

Figure 24-23. Display the Tagged Hybrid Interface

Force10(conf-if-vl-20)#do show interfaces switchport
Name: GigabitEthernet 7/0
802.1QTagged: Hybrid
Vlan membership:
Vlan 10, Vlan 20
Native VlanId: 10
Force10(conf-if-vl-20)# 

The figure below is an example unconfiguration of the hybrid port using the no portmode hybrid command.

Note: You must remove all other configurations on the port before you can remove the hybrid configuration from the port.

Example

E-Series legacy command

Usage Information

The shutdown command marks a physical interface as unavailable for traffic. To discover if an interface is disabled, use the show ip interface brief command. Disabled interfaces are listed as down.

Disabling a VLAN or a port channel causes different behavior. When a VLAN is disabled, the Layer 3 functions within that VLAN are disabled. Layer 2 traffic continues to flow. Entering the shutdown command on a port channel disables all traffic on the port channel and the individual interfaces within the port channel. To enable a port channel, you must enter no shutdown on the port channel interface and at least one interface within that port channel.

The shutdown and description commands are the only commands that you can configure on an interface that is a member of a port channel.

When auto is enabled, the system performs and automatic discovery to determine the optics installed and configure the appropriate speed.

When you configure a speed for the 10/100/1000 interface, you should confirm negotiation auto command setting. Both sides of the link should have auto-negotiation either enabled or disabled. For speed settings of 1000 or auto, the software sets the link to auto-negotiation and you cannot change that setting.

Note: Starting with FTOS 7.8.1.0, when a copper SFP2 module with catalog number GP-SFP2-1T is used in the S25P model of the S-Series, its speed can be manually set with the speed command. When the speed is set to 10 or 100 Mbps, the duplex command can also be executed.

Use the following information to enter specific values to set the autonegotiation speed and duplex settings for switch ports. Entering specific values allows users to limit the speed available on ports to the values that are specified.

Note: The command speed auto 100 in FTOS is an exact equivalent of speed auto 100 in IOS

Port Channel Commands

A Link Aggregation Group (LAG) is a group of links that appear to a MAC client as if they were a single link according to IEEE 802.3ad. In FTOS, a LAG is referred to as a Port Channel.

Table 24-12. Port Channel Limits

Platform	Maximum Port Channel IDs	Maximum Members per Port Channel
E-Series ExaScale 255 64
E-Series TeraScale 255 16
E-Series EtherScale 32 16
C-Series 128 8
S-Series 128 8

Because each port can be assigned to only one Port Channel, and each Port Channel must have at least one port, some of those nominally available Port Channels might have no function because they could have no members if there are not enough ports installed. In the S-Series, those ports could be provided by stack members.

The commands in this section are specific to Port Channel interfaces:

• channel-member
• group
• interface port-channel
• minimum-links
  • port-channel failover-group
  • show config
  • show interfaces port-channel
  • show port-channel-flow

Note: The FTOS implementation of LAG or Port Channel requires that you configure a LAG on both switches manually. For information on FTOS Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) for dynamic LAGs, refer to Chapter 30, Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP).

For more information on configuring and using Port Channels, refer to the FTOS Configuration Guide.

channel-member

Add an interface to the Port Channel, while in the INTERFACE PORTCHANNEL mode.

Syntax

channel-member interface

To delete an interface from a Port Channel, use the no channel-member interface command.

Parameters

Command History

Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.6.1.0 Introduced on S-Series

Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

pre-Version 6.2.1.0 Introduced for E-Series

Usage Information

Use the interface port-channel command to access this command.

You cannot add an interface to a Port Channel if the interface contains an IP address in its configuration. Only the shutdown, description, mtu, and ip mtu commands can be configured on an interface if it is to be added to a Port Channel. The mtu and ip mtu commands are only available when the chassis is in Jumbo mode.

Link MTU and IP MTU considerations for Port Channels are:

• All members must have the same link MTU value and the same IP MTU value.
• The Port Channel link MTU and IP MTU must be less than or equal to the link MTU and IP MTU values configured on the channel members.
  Example: If the members have a link MTU of 2100 and an IP MTU 2000, the Port Channel's MTU values cannot be higher than 2100 for link MTU or 2000 bytes for IP MTU.

When an interface is removed from a Port Channel with the no channel-member command syntax, the interface reverts to its configuration prior to joining the Port Channel.

An interface can belong to only one Port Channel.

On the E-Series TeraScale, you can add up to 16 interfaces to a Port Channel; E-Series ExaScale can have up to 64. You can have eight interfaces per Port Channel on the C-Series and S-Series. The interfaces can be located on different line cards but must be the same physical type and speed (for example, all 1-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces). However, you can combine 100/1000 interfaces and GE interfaces in the same Port Channel.

If the Port Channel contains a mix of interfaces with 100 Mb/s speed and 1000 Mb/s speed, the software disables those interfaces whose speed does not match the speed of the first interface configured and enabled in the Port Channel. If that first interface goes down, the Port Channel does not change its designated speed; you must disable and re-enable the Port Channel or change the order of the channel members configuration to change the designated speed. Refer to the FTOS Configuration Guide for more information on Port Channels.

Usage Information

Port Channel interfaces are logical interfaces and can be either in Layer 2 mode (by using the switchport command) or Layer 3 mode (by configuring an IP address). You can add a Port Channel in Layer 2 mode to a VLAN.

The shutdown, description, and name commands are the only commands that you can configure on an interface while it is a member of a Port Channel. To add a physical interface to a Port Channel, the interface can only have the shutdown, description, and name commands configured. The Port Channel's configuration is applied to the interfaces within the Port Channel.

A Port Channel can contain both 100/1000 interfaces and GE interfaces. Based on the first interface configured in the Port Channel and enabled, FTOS determines if the Port Channel uses 100 Mb/s or 1000 Mb/s as the common speed. Refer to channel-member for more information.

If the line card is in a Jumbo mode chassis, then the mtu and ip mtu commands can also be configured. The Link MTU and IP MTU values configured on the channel members must be greater than the Link MTU and IP MTU values configured on the Port Channel interface.

Note: In a Jumbo-enabled system, all members of a Port Channel must be configured with the same link MTU values and the same IP MTU values.

Usage Information

Since this command calculates based on a Layer 2 hash algorithm, use this command to display flows for switched Layer 2 packets, not for routed packets (use the show ip flow command to display routed packets).

The show port-channel-flow command returns the egress port identification in a given port-channel, if a valid flow is entered. A mismatched flow error occurs if MAC-based hashing is configured for a Layer 2 interface and the user is trying to display a Layer 3 flow.

The output will display three entries:

- Egress port for unfragmented packets.

Example

• In the event of fragmented packets, egress port of the first fragment.
• In the event of fragmented packets, egress port of the subsequent fragments.

show port-channel-flow outgoing-port-channel number incoming-interface interface source-mac address destination-mac address

• Load-balance is configured for MAC
• Load balance is configured for IP 4-tuple/2-tuple for the C-Series and S-Series
• A non-IP payload is going out of Layer 2 LAG interface that is a member of VLAN with an IP address.

Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR)

TDR is supported on E-Series ExaScale with FTOS 8.2.1.0. and later.

TDR is useful for troubleshooting an interface that is not establishing a link; either it is flapping or not coming up at all. TDR detects open or short conditions of copper cables on 100/1000 Base-T modules.

• tdr-cable-test
  • show tdr

Important Points to Remember

• The interface and port must be enabled (configured—see the interface command) before running TDR. An error message is generated if you have not enabled the interface.
• The interface on the far-end device must be shut down before running TDR.
• Since TDR is an intrusive test on an interface that is not establishing a link, do not run TDR on an interface that is passing traffic.
• When testing between two devices, do not run the test on both ends of the cable.

The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) broadcast feature is a software-based method to forward low throughput (not to exceed 200 pps) IP/UDP broadcast traffic arriving on a physical or VLAN interface.

Important Points to Remember

• This feature is available only on the E-Series platform, as noted by this symbol under each command heading: [E]
• This feature applies only to E-Series Layer 3 physical or VLAN interfaces.
• Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is not supported with the UDP Broadcast feature.
• If this feature is configured on an interface using ip udp-helper udp-port, then the command ip directed-broadcast becomes ineffective on that interface.

- The existing command show interface has been modified to display the configured broadcast address.

The commands for UDP Broadcast are:

• debug ip udp-helper
• ip udp-broadcast-address
• ip udp-helper udp-port
  • show ip udp-helper

debug ip udp-helper

E Enable UDP debug and display the debug information on a console.

Syntax debug ip udp-helper

To disable debug information, use the no debug ip udp-helper command.

Defaults Debug disabled

Command Modes EXEC

EXEC Privilege

Example Figure 24-49. Debug Output Example

Force10#debug ip udp-helper
UDP helper debugging is on

01:20:22: Pkt rcvd on Gi 5/0 with IP DA (0xffffff) will be sent on Gi 5/1 Gi 5/2 Vlan 3

01:44:54: Pkt rcvd on Gi 7/0 is handed over for DHCP processing.

show ip udp-helper Display the configured UDP helper(s) on all interfaces.

ip udp-broadcast-address

E Configure an IP UDP address for broadcast.

Syntax ip udp-broadcast-address address

To delete the configuration, use the no ip udp-broadcast-address address command.

Parameters address

Enter an IP broadcast address in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D).

Defaults Not Configured

Command Modes INTERFACE (config-if)

Usage Information	When a UDP broadcast packet is flooded out of an interface, and the outgoing interface is configured using this command, the outgoing packet's IP destination address is replaced with the configured broadcast address.
Related Commands	debug ip udp-helper Enable debug and display the debug information on a console.
	show ip udp-helper Display the configured UDP helper(s) on all interfaces.
ip udp-helper udp-port
E	Enable the UDP broadcast feature on an interface either for all UDP ports or a specified list of UDP ports.
Syntax	ip udp-helper udp-port [udp-port-list]
	To disable the UDP broadcast on a port, use the no ip udp-helper udp-port [udp-port-list] command.
Parameters	udp-port-list (OPTIONAL) Enter up to 16 comma separated UDP port numbers.Note: If this option is not used, all UDP Ports are considered by default.
Defaults	No default behavior or values
Command Modes	INTERFACE (config-if)
Usage Information	If the ip helper-address command and ip udp-helper udp-port command are configured, the behavior is that the UDP broadcast traffic with port numbers 67/68 will be unicast relayed to the DHCP server per the ip helper-address configuration. This will occur regardless if the ip udp-helper udp-port command contains port numbers 67/68 or not.
	If only the ip udp-helper udp-port command is configured, all the UDP broadcast traffic is flooded, including ports 67/68 traffic if those ports are part of the udp-port-list.
Related Commands	ip helper-address Configure the destination broadcast or host address for DHCP server.
	debug ip udp-helper Enable debug and display the debug information on a console.
	show ip udp-helper Display the configured UDP helper(s) on all interfaces.

Field Description
s= Lists the source address of the packet and the name of the interface (in parentheses) that received the packet.
d= Lists the destination address of the packet and the name of the interface (in parentheses) through which the packet is being sent out on the network.
len Displays the packet's length.
sending rcvd fragment sending broad/multicast proto unroutable	The last part of each line lists the status of the packet.
TCP src= Displays the source and destination ports, the sequence number, the acknowledgement number, and the window size of the packets in that TCP packets.
UDP src= Displays the source and destination ports for the UDP packets.
ICMP type= Displays the ICMP type and code.
IP Fragment States that it is a fragment and displays the unique number identifying the fragment (Ident) and the offset (in 8-byte units) of this fragment (fragment offset) from the beginning of original datagram.

Usage Information

Use the count option to stop packets from flooding the user terminal when debugging is turned on.

The access-group option supports only the equal to (eq) operator in TCP ACL rules. Port operators not equal to (neq), greater than (gt), less than (lt), or range are not supported in access-group option (see Figure 25-4). ARP packets (arp) and Ether-type (ether-type) are also not supported in access-group option. The entire rule is skipped to compose the filter.

The access-group option pertains to:

• IP Protocol Number 0 to 255

• Internet Control Message Protocol* icmp
  * but not the ICMP message type (0-255)
• Any Internet Protocol ip
  • Transmission Control Protocol* tcp
  * but not on the rst, syn, or urg bit
• User Datagram Protocol udp

In the case of ambiguous access control list rules, the debug ip packet access-control command will be disabled. A message appears identifying the error (see Figure 25-4).

Usage Information

Configure the ip domain-list command up to 6 times to configure a list of possible domain names.

If both the ip domain-name and ip domain-list commands are configured, the software will try to resolve the name using the ip domain-name command. If the name is not resolved, the software goes through the list of names configured with the ip domain-list command to find a match.

Use the following steps to enable dynamic resolution of hosts:

- specify a domain name server with the ip name-server command.

- enable DNS with the ip domain-lookup command.

To view current bindings, use the show hosts command. To view DNS related configuration, use the show running-config resolve command.

Usage Information

Version 7.5.1.0 Added support for C-Series

pre-Version 6.2.1.1 Introduced on E-Series

You can add multiple DHCP servers by entering the ip helper-address command multiple times. If multiple servers are defined, an incoming request is sent simultaneously to all configured servers and the reply is forwarded to the DHCP client.

FTOS uses standard DHCP ports, that is UDP ports 67 (server) and 68 (client) for DHCP relay services. It listens on port 67 and if it receives a broadcast, the software converts it to unicast, and forwards to it to the DHCP-server with source port=68 and destination port=67.

The server replies with source port=67, destination port=67 and FTOS forwards to the client with source port=67, destination port=68.

Usage Information

This command disables the incrementing of the hops field when boot requests are relayed to a DHCP server through FTOS. If the incoming boot request already has a non-zero hops field, the message will be relayed with the same value for hops. However, the message will be discarded if the hops field exceeds 16, to comply with the relay agent behavior specified in RFC 1542.

Command Modes

INTERFACE (Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces)

Command History

Version 8.1.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

pre-Version 6.1.1.0 Introduced for E-Series

Usage Information

When you enter no mtu command, FTOS reduces the ip mtu value to 1536 bytes. To return the IP MTU value to the default, enter no ip mtu.

You must compensate for Layer 2 header when configuring link MTU on an Ethernet interface or FTOS may not fragment packets. If the packet includes a Layer 2 header, the difference between the link MTU and IP MTU (ip mtu command) must be enough bytes to include for the Layer 2 header.

Link MTU and IP MTU considerations for Port Channels and VLANs are as follows.

Port Channels:

All members must have the same link MTU value and the same IP MTU value.

- The Port Channel link MTU and IP MTU must be less than or equal to the link MTU and IP MTU values configured on the channel members.

Example: if the members have a link MTU of 2100 and an IP MTU 2000, the Port Channel's MTU values cannot be higher than 2100 for link MTU or 2000 bytes for IP MTU.

VLANs:

• All members of a VLAN must have same IP MTU value.
• Members can have different Link MTU values. Tagged members must have a link MTU 4 bytes higher than untagged members to account for the packet tag.
• The VLAN link MTU and IP MTU must be less than or equal to the link MTU and IP MTU values configured on the VLAN members.

Example: The VLAN contains tagged members with Link MTU of 1522 and IP MTU of 1500 and untagged members with Link MTU of 1518 and IP MTU of 1500. The VLAN's Link MTU cannot be higher than 1518 bytes and its IP MTU cannot be higher than 1500 bytes.

Table 25-2. Difference between Link MTU and IP MTU

Layer 2 Overhead Difference between Link MTU and IP MTU
Ethernet (untagged) 18 bytes
VLAN Tag 22 bytes
Untagged Packet with VLAN-Stack Header 22 bytes
Tagged Packet with VLAN-Stack Header 26 bytes

Usage Information

By default this command is disabled. When enabled, all the Layer 3 unicast routed data traffic going through a VLAN member port is flooded across all the member ports of that VLAN. There might be some ARP table entries which are resolved through ARP packets which had Ethernet MAC SA different from MAC information inside the ARP packet. This unicast data traffic flooding occurs only for those packets which use these ARP entries.

load-balance (C-Series and S-Series)

By default for C-Series and S-Series, FTOS uses an IP 4-tuple (IP SA, IP DA, Source Port, and Destination Port) to distribute IP traffic over members of a Port Channel as well as equal-cost paths. To designate another method to balance traffic over Port Channel members, use the load-balance command.

Syntax

load-balance {ip-selection [dest-ip | source-ip]} | {mac [dest-mac | source-dest-mac | source-mac]} | {tcp-udp [enable]}

To return to the default setting (IP 4-tuple), use the no version of the command.

Parameters

ip-selection {dest-ip | source-ip}	Enter the keywords to distribute IP traffic based on the following criteria:•dest-ip—Uses destination IP address and destination port fields to hash. The hashing mechanism returns a 3-bit index indicating which port the packet should be forwarded to.•source-ip—Uses source IP address and source port fields to hash. The hashing mechanism returns a 3-bit index indicating which port the packet should be forwarded to.
mac {dest-mac | source-dest-mac | source-mac}	Enter the keywords to distribute MAC traffic based on the following criteria:•dest-mac—Uses the destination MAC address, VLAN, Ethertype, source module ID and source port ID fields to hash.

Usage Information

This command provides egress port information for a given IP flow. This is useful in identifying which interface the packet will follow in the case of Port-channel and Equal Cost Multi Paths. Use this command for routed packed only. For switched packets use the show port-channel-flow command

show ip flow does not compute the egress port information when load-balance mac hashing is also configured due to insufficient information (the egress MAC is not available).

S-Series produces the following error message:

%Error: Unable to read IP route table

C-Series produces the message:

%Error: FIB cannot compute the egress port with the current trunk hash setting.

IPv6 Access Control Lists (IPv6 ACLs)

Overview

IPv6 ACLs and IPv6 Route Map commands are supported on platforms: C E S

• IPv6 ACL Commands
  • IPv6 Route Map Commands

Note: For IPv4 ACL commands, see Chapter 9, Access Control Lists (ACL).

Important Points to Remember

• E-Series platforms require IPv6-ExtACL CAM profile to support IPv6 ACLs.
• C-Series platforms require manual CAM usage space allotment. Refer to cam-acl later in this document.
• Egress IPv6 ACL and IPv6 ACL on Loopback interface is not supported.
• Reference to an empty ACL will permit any traffic.
• ACLs are not applied to self-originated traffic (e.g. Control Protocol traffic not affected by IPv6 ACL since the routed bit is not set for Control Protocol traffic and for egress ACLs the routed bit must be set).
• The same access list name can be used for both IPv4 and IPv6 ACLs.
• Both IPv4 and IPv6 ACLs can be applied on an interface at the same time.
• IPv6 ACLs can be applied on physical interfaces and a logical interfaces (Port-channel/VLAN).
• Non-contiguous masks are not supported in source or destination addresses in IPv6 ACL entries.
• Since prefix mask is specified in /x format in IPv6 ACLs, inverse mask is not supported.

IPv6 ACL Commands

The following commands configure IPv6 ACLs:

• cam-acl
  • clear counters ipv6 access-group
• deny
• deny icmp
• deny tcp
• deny udp
• ipv6 access-group
• ipv6 access-list
• permit
• permit icmp
• permit tcp
• permit udp
• remark
• resequence access-list
• resequence prefix-list ipv6
  • seq
  • show cam-acl
  • show config
  • show ipv6 accounting access-list
  • show running-config acl
• test cam-usage

cam-acl

Allocate space for IPv6 ACLs.

Syntax

cam-acl {default | l2acl 1-10 ipv4acl 1-10 ipv6acl 0-10 ipv4qos 1-10 l2qos 1-10}

Parameters

default	Use the default CAM profile settings, and set the CAM as follows.L3 ACL (ipv4acl): 6L2 ACL(l2acl): 5IPv6 L3 ACL (ipv6acl): 0L3 QoS (ipv4qos): 1L2 QoS (l2qos): 1
l2acl 1-10 ipv4acl 1-10 ipv6acl 0-10 ipv4qos 1-10 l2qos 1-10	Allocate space to support IPv6 ACLs. You must enter all of the profiles and a range.Enter the CAM profile name followed by the amount to be allotted.The total space allocated must equal 13.The ipv6acl range must be a factor of 2.

Command Modes CONFIGURATION

Command History	Version 8.4.2.0 Introduced on the E-Series TeraScale
	Version 8.2.1.0 Introduced on the S-Series
	Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced on the C-Series

Usage Information You must save the new CAM settings to the startup-config (write-mem or copy run start) then reload the system for the new settings to take effect.

The total amount of space allowed is 16 FP Blocks. System flow requires 3 blocks and these cannot be reallocated.

When configuring space for IPv6 ACLs, the total number of Blocks must equal 13.

Ranges for the CAM profiles are 1-10, except for the ipv6acl profile which is 0-10. The ipv6acl allocation must be a factor of 2 (2, 4, 6, 8, 10).

clear counters ipv6 access-group

C E S Erase all counters maintained for the IPv6 access lists.

Syntax clear counters ipv6 access-group [access-list-name]

deny

Configure a filter that drops IPv6 packets that match the filter criteria.

Syntax

deny {ipv6-protocol-number | icmp | ipv6 | tcp | udp}

To remove this filter, you have two choices:

• Use the no seq sequence-number command syntax if you know the filter's sequence number or
  • Use the no deny {ipv6-protocol-number | icmp | ipv6 | tcp | udp} command.

Parameters

ip-protocol-number	Enter an IPv6 protocol number. Range: 0 to 255
icmp	Enter the keyword icmp to deny Internet Control Message Protocol version 6.
ipv6	Enter the keyword ipv6 to deny any Internet Protocol version 6.

Usage Information

This command applies to both IPv4 and IPv6 CAM Profiles, but is best used when verifying QoS optimization for IPv6 ACLs.

QoS Optimization for IPv6 ACLs does not impact the CAM usage for applying a policy on a single (or the first of several) interfaces. It is most useful when a policy is applied across multiple interfaces; it can reduce the impact to CAM usage across subsequent interfaces.

Example The following example shows the output shown when using the test cam-usage command.

Configure the IPv6 route using a next-hop IPv6 address in order for the ping command to detect the destination address.
ipv6-address	Enter the next-hop address of an IPv6 neighbor router in the X:X:X:X::X format. Note: The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros
distance	(OPTIONAL) Enter a number as the distance metric assigned to the route. Range: 1 to 255
tag value	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword tag followed by a tag value number. Range: 1 to 4294967295
permanent	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword permanent to specify that the route is not to be removed, even if the interface assigned to that route goes down. Note: If you disable the interface with an IPv6 address associated with the keyword permanent, the route disappears from the routing table.

Usage Information

When the interface goes down, FTOS withdraws the route. The route is re-installed, by FTOS, when the interface comes back up. When a recursive resolution is “broken,” FTOS withdraws the route. The route is re-installed, by FTOS, when the recursive resolution is satisfied.

Version 8.4.2.1 Introduced on S-Series

Version 8.2.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced on C-Series

Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced on E-Series TeraScale

Usage Information

Since this command is enabled by default, it does not appear in the running configuration. When unicast routing is disabled, the no ipv6 unicast-routing command is included in the running configuration. Whenever unicast routing is disabled or re-enabled, FTOS generates a syslog message indicating the action.

Disabling unicast routing on an E-Series chassis causes the following behavior:

• static and protocol learnt routes are removed from RTM and from the CAM; packet forwarding to these routes is terminated.
• connected routes and resolved neighbors remain in the CAM and new IPv6 neighbors are still discoverable
  • additional protocol adjacencies (OSPFv3 and BGP4) are brought down and no new adjacencies are formed
• the IPv6 address family configuration (under router bgp) is deleted
• IPv6 Multicast traffic continues to flow unhindered

show ipv6 cam linecard

Displays the IPv6 CAM entries for the specified line card.

Syntax
show ipv6 cam linecard slot-number port-set {0-1} [summary | index | ipv6 address]

Parameters
	slot-number Enter the line card slot ID number.Range: 0 to 13 on the E1200; 0 on 6 for E600, and 0 to 5 on the E300.
	port-set Enter the Port Set to
	summary (OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordsummaryto display a table listing network prefixes and the total number prefixes which can be entered into the IPv6 CAM.
	index (OPTIONAL) Enter the index in the IPv6 CAM
	ipv6-address Enter the IPv6 address in the X:X:X:X::X/n format to display networks that have more specific prefixes.Range: /0 to /128Note:The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros.

Usage Information The forwarding table displays host route first, then displays route originated by routing protocol including static route. The egress port section displays the egress port of the forwarding entry which is designated as:

C for the Control Processor

1 for the Route Processor 1

2 for the Route Processor 2

Note: If a link-local IPv6 address is statically configured and dynamically learned on a C-Series router, the dynamically -learned IPv6 address is displayed in show ipv6 cam linecard output, but the statically-configured IPv6 address may not be displayed. Use the show ipv6 fib linecard or show ipv6 neighbors commands to display statically-configured addresses of IPv6 neighbors.

IPv6 Border Gateway Protocol (IPv6 BGP)

Overview

IPv6 Border Gateway Protocol (IPv6 BGP) is supported on platforms: E C S4810

This chapter includes the following commands:

• IPv6 BGP Commands
  • IPv6 MBGP Commands

IPv6 BGP Commands

Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is an external gateway protocol that transmits interdomain routing information within and between Autonomous Systems (AS). BGP version 4 (BGPv4) supports classless interdomain routing and the aggregation of routes and AS paths. Basically, two routers (called neighbors or peers) exchange information including full routing tables and periodically send messages to update those routing tables.

The following commands allow you to configure and enable BGP.

• aggregate-address
  • bgp always-compare-med
  • bgp bestpath as-path ignore
  • bgp bestpath med confed

address-family

54810

Enable the IPv4 multicast or the IPv6 address family.

Syntax address-family [ipv4 multicast| ipv6unicast]

Parameters	ipv4 multicast	Enter BGPv4 multicast mode.
	ipv6 unicast	Enter BGPv6 mode.

Defaults Not configured.

Command Modes ROUTER BGP

Command History

Version 8.4.2.1 Introduced on C-Series and S4810.

Version 6.5.1.0 Introduced on E-Series TeraScale

Usage Information

Enter ipv6 unicast to enter the BGP for IPv6 mode (CONF-ROUTER_BGPv6_AF).

aggregate-address

Summarize a range of prefixes to minimize the number of entries in the routing table.

Syntax
aggregate-address ipv6-address prefix-length [advertise-map map-name] [as-set] [attribute-map map-name] [summary-only] [suppress-map map-name]
Parameters

ipv6-address prefix-length	Enter the IPv6 address in the X:X:X:X::X format followed by the prefix length in the /x format.Range: /0 to /128The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros
advertise-map map-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywords advertise-map followed by the name of a configured route map to set filters for advertising an aggregate route.
as-set	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword as-set to generate path attribute information and include it in the aggregate.AS_SET includes AS_PATH and community information from the routes included in the aggregated route.
attribute-map map-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywords attribute-map followed by the name of a configured route map to modify attributes of the aggregate, excluding AS_PATH and NEXT_HOP attributes.
summary-only	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword summary-only to advertise only the aggregate address. Specific routes will not be advertised.
suppress-map map-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywords suppress-map followed by the name of a configured route map to identify which more-specific routes in the aggregate are suppressed.

Defaults

Not configured.

Command Modes
CONFIGURATION-ROUTER-BGPV6-ADDRESS FAMILY
Command History

Version 8.4.2.1 Introduced on C-Series and S4810.

Version 8.2.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced on E-Series TeraScale

Usage Information

At least one of the routes included in the aggregate address must be in the BGP routing table for the configured aggregate to become active.

Do not add the as-set parameter to the aggregate, if routes within the aggregate are constantly changing as the aggregate will flap to keep track of the changes in the AS_PATH.

In route maps used in the suppress-map parameter, routes meeting the deny clause are not suppress; in other words, they are allowed. The opposite is true: routes meeting the permit clause are suppressed.

If the route is injected via the network command, that route will still appear in the routing table if the summary-only parameter is configured in the aggregate-address command.

The summary-only parameter suppresses all advertisements. If you want to suppress advertisements to only specific neighbors, use the neighbor distribute-list command.

In the show ip bgp ipv6 unicast command, aggregates contain an 'a' in the first column and routes suppressed by the aggregate contain an 's' in the first column.

bgp always-compare-med

Allows you to enable comparison of the MULTI_EXIT_DISC (MED) attributes in the paths from different external ASs.

Syntax bgp always-compare-med

To disable comparison of MED, enter no bgp always-compare-med.

Defaults Disabled (that is, the software only compares MEDs from neighbors within the same AS).

Command Modes ROUTER BGP

Command History

Version 8.4.2.1 Introduced on C-Series and S4810.

Version 8.2.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced on E-Series TeraScale

Usage Information

Any update without a MED attribute is the least preferred route.

If you enable this command, use the capture bgp-pdu max-buffer-size * command to recompute the best path.

bgp bestpath as-path ignore

Ignore the AS PATH in BGP best path calculations.

Syntax bgp bestpath as-path ignore

To return to the default, enter no bgp bestpath as-path ignore.

Defaults Disabled (that is, the software considers the AS_PATH when choosing a route as best).

Command History

Version 8.4.2.1 Introduced on C-Series and S4810.

Version 8.2.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced on E-Series TeraScale

Usage Information

When a BGP cluster contains only one route reflector, the cluster ID is the route reflector's router ID. For redundancy, a BGP cluster may contain two or more route reflectors and you assign a cluster ID with the bgp cluster-id command. Without a cluster ID, the route reflector cannot recognize route updates from the other route reflectors within the cluster.

The default format for displaying the cluster-id is dotted decimal, but if you enter the cluster-id as an integer, it will be displayed as an integer.

Command History

Version 8.4.2.1 Introduced on C-Series and S4810.

Version 8.2.1.0 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale

Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced on E-Series TeraScale

Usage Information In non-deterministic mode, paths are compared in the order in which they arrive. This method can lead to FTOS choosing different best paths from a set of paths, depending on the order in which they are received from the neighbors since MED may or may not get compared between adjacent paths. In deterministic mode (no bgp non-deterministic-med), FTOS compares MED between adjacent paths within an AS group since all paths in the AS group are from the same AS.

When you change the path selection from deterministic to non-deterministic, the path selection for existing paths remains deterministic until you enter capture bgp-pdu max-buffer-size command to clear existing paths.

bgp recursive-bgp-next-hop

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP

Usage Information

This command is a knob to disable BGP next-hop resolution via BGP learned routes. During the next-hop resolution, only the first route that the next-hop resolves through is verified for the route's protocol source and is checked if the route is learned from BGP or not.

The clear ip bgp command is required for this command to take effect and to keep the BGP database consistent. Execute the clear ip bgp command right after executing this command.

Syntax

bgp regex-eval-optz-disable

To re-enable optimization engine, use the no bgp regex-eval-optz-disable command.

Defaults

Enabled by default

Command Modes

ROUTER BGP (conf-router_bgp)

Usage Information

BGP uses regular expressions (regex) to filter route information. In particular, the use of regular expressions to filter routes based on AS-PATHs and communities is quite common. In a large scale configuration, filtering millions of routes based on regular expressions can be quite CPU intensive, as a regular expression evaluation involves generation and evaluation of complex finite state machines.

BGP policies, containing regular expressions to match as-path and communities, tend to use a lot of CPU processing time, which in turn affects the BGP routing convergence. Additionally, the show bgp commands, which are filtered through regular expressions, use up CPU cycles particularly with large databases. The Regex Engine Performance Enhancement feature optimizes the CPU usage by caching and reusing regular expression evaluation results. This caching and reuse may be at the expensive of RP1 processor memory.

bgp soft-reconfig-backup

Use this command only when route-refresh is not negotiated between peers to avoid having a peer resend BGP updates.

Syntax bgp soft-reconfig-backup

To return to the default setting, use the no bgp soft-reconfig-backup command.

Defaults Off

Command Modes ROUTER BGPV6 ADDRESS FAMILY (conf-router_bgpv6_af)

Usage When soft-reconfiguration is enabled for a neighbor and the clear ip bgp soft in is executed, the update database stored in the router is replayed and updates are reevaluated. With this command, the replay and update process is triggered only if route-refresh request is not negotiated with the peer. If the request is indeed negotiated (upon execution of clear ip bgp soft in), then BGP sends a route-refresh request to the neighbor and receives all of the peer's updates.

address family

This command changes the context to SAFI (Subsequent Address Family Identifier).

Syntax address family ipv6 unicast

To remove SAFI context, use the no address family ipv6 unicast command.

Parameters	ipv6	Enter the keyword ipv6 to specify the address family as IPv6.
	unicast	Enter the keyword unicast to specify multicast as SAFI.
Defaults	IPv6 Unicast
Command Modes	ROUTER BGPV6-ADDRESS FAMILY
Command History	Version 8.4.2.1 Introduced on C-Series and S4810.
	Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced on E-Series TeraScale
Usage Information	All subsequent commands will apply to this address family once this command is executed. You can exit from this AFI/SAFI to the IPv6 Unicast (the default) family by entering exit and returning to the Router BGP context.

aggregate-address

54810

Summarize a range of prefixes to minimize the number of entries in the routing table.

Syntax

aggregate-address ipv6-address prefix-length [advertise-map map-name] [as-set] [attribute-map map-name] [summary-only] [suppress-map map-name]

Parameters

ipv6-address prefix-length	Enter the IPv6 address in the X:X:X:X::X format followed by the prefix length in the /X format.Range: /0 to /128The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros.
advertise-mapmap-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordsadvertise-mapfollowed by the name of a configured route map to set filters for advertising an aggregate route.
as-set	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordas-setto generate path attribute information and include it in the aggregate.AS_SET includes AS_PATH and community information from the routes included in the aggregated route.
attribute-map map-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordsattribute-mapfollowed by the name of a configured route map to modify attributes of the aggregate, excluding AS_PATH and NEXT_HOP attributes.
summary-only	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordsummary-onlyto advertise only the aggregate address. Specific routes will not be advertised.
suppress-mapmap-name	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywordssuppress-mapfollowed by the name of a configured route map to identify which more-specific routes in the aggregate are suppressed.

Defaults

Not configured.

Command Modes

ROUTER BGPV6-ADDRESS FAMILY

Command History

Version 8.4.2.1 Introduced on C-Series and S4810.

Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced on E-Series TeraScale

Usage Information

At least one of the routes included in the aggregate address must be in the BGP routing table for the configured aggregate to become active.

Do not add the as-set parameter to the aggregate. If routes within the aggregate are constantly changing, the aggregate will flap to keep track of the changes in the AS_PATH.

In route maps used in the suppress-map parameter, routes meeting the deny clause are not suppress; in other words, they are allowed. The opposite is true: routes meeting the permit clause are suppressed.

If the route is injected via the network command, that route will still appear in the routing table if the summary-only parameter is configured in the aggregate-address command.

The summary-only parameter suppresses all advertisements. If you want to suppress advertisements to only specific neighbors, use the neighbor distribute-list command.

Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS)

Overview

Intermediate System to Intermediate System Protocol (IS-IS) for IPv4 and IPv6 is supported only on the E-Series platform, as indicated by the character under each command heading.

IS-IS is an interior gateway protocol that uses a shortest-path-first algorithm. IS-IS facilitates the communication between open systems, supporting routers passing both IP and OSI traffic.

A router is considered an intermediate system. Networks are partitioned into manageable routing domains, called areas. Intermediate systems send, receive, and forward packets to other routers within their area (Level 1 and Level 1-2 devices). Only Level 1-2 and Level 2 devices communicate with other areas.

IS-IS protocol standards are listed in the Standard Compliance chapter in the FTOS Configuration Guide.

Note: The fundamental mechanisms of IS-IS are the same between IPv4 and IPv6. Where there are differences between the two versions, they are identified and clarified in this chapter. Except where identified, the information in this chapter applies to both protocol versions.

ROUTER ISIS (for IPv4)

CONFIGURATION-ROUTER-ISIS-ADDRESS-FAMILY-IPV6 (for IPv6)

Command History

Version 7.5.1.0 Introduced IPv6 ISIS support

Version 6.3.1.0 Introduced

Usage Information

When you use this command to redistribute routes into a routing domain, the router becomes an autonomous system (AS) boundary router. An AS boundary router does not always generate a default route into a routing domain. The router still requires its own default route before it can generate one.

How a metric value assigned to a default route is advertised depends on how on the configuration of the metric-style command. If the metric-style is set for narrow mode and the metric value in the default-information originate command is set to a number higher than 63, the metric value advertised in LSPs will be 63. If the metric-style is set for wide mode, their the metric value in the default-information originate command is advertised.

ignore-lsp-errors

E

Ignore LSPs with bad checksums instead of purging those LSPs.

Syntax

ignore-lsp-errors

To return to the default values, enter no ignore-lsp-errors.

Defaults

In IS-IS, the default deletes LSPs with internal checksum errors (no ignore-lsp-errors).

Command Modes

ROUTER ISIS

Usage Information

IS-IS normally purges LSPs with an incorrect data link checksum, causing the LSP source to regenerate the message. A cycle of purging and regenerating LSPs can occur when a network link continues to deliver accurate LSPs even though there is a link causing data corruption. This could cause disruption to your system operation.

Command Modes

ROUTER ISIS

Command History

Version 7.5.1.0 Expanded to support LSP Throttling Enhancement

Usage Information

LSP throttling slows down the frequency at which LSPs are generated during network instability. Even though throttling LSP generations slows down network convergence, no throttling can result in a network not functioning as expected. If network topology is unstable, throttling slows down the scheduling of LSP generations until the topology regains its stability.

The first generation is controlled by the initial wait interval and the second generation is controlled by the second wait interval. Each subsequent wait interval is twice as long as the previous one until the wait interval reaches the maximum wait time specified (interval seconds). Once the network calms down and there are no triggers for two times the maximum interval, fast behavior is restored (the initial wait time).

lsp-mtu

Set the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of IS-IS link-state packets (LSPs). This command only limits the size of LSPs generated by this router.

Syntax

Isp-mtu size

Usage Information	You must configure a network entity title (thenet command) to specify the area address and the router system ID.
	You must enable routing on one or more interfaces to establish adjacencies and establish dynamic routing.
	Only one IS-IS routing process can be configured to perform Level 2 routing. Alevel-1-2designation performs Level 1 and Level 2 routing at the same time.
Related Commands	ip router isis Configure IS-IS routing processes for IP on interfaces and attach an area designator to the routing process.
	net Configure an IS-IS network entity title (NET) for a routing process.
	is-type Assign a type for a given area.

set-overload-bit

Configure the router to set the overload bit in its non-pseudonode LSPs. This prevents other routers from using it as an intermediate hop in their shortest path first (SPF) calculations.

Syntax

set-overload-bit

To return to the default values, enter no set-overload-bit.

Defaults

Not set.

Command Mode ROUTER ISIS (for IPv4)

CONFIGURATION-ROUTER-ISIS-ADDRESS-FAMILY-IPV6 (for IPv6)

Usage Information

Set the overload bit when a router experiences problems, such as a memory shortage due to an incomplete link state database which can result in an incomplete or inaccurate routing table. If you set the overload bit in its LSPs, other routers ignore the unreliable router in their SPF calculations until the router has recovered.

Field Description
IS-IS Level-1/Level-2 Link State Database	Displays the IS-IS link state database for Level 1 or Level 2.
LSPID Displays the LSP identifier.	The first six octets are the System ID of the originating router.The next octet is the pseudonode ID. If this byte is not zero, then the LSP describes system links. If this byte is zero (0), then the LSP describes the state of the originating router.The designated router for a LAN creates and floods a pseudonode LSP and describes the attached systems.The last octet is the LSP number. An LSP will be divided into multiple LSP fragments if there is more data than cannot fit in a single LSP. Each fragment has a unique LSP number.An * after the LSPID indicates that an LSP was originated by the system where this command was issued.
LSP Seq Num This value is the sequence number for the LSP that allows other systems to determine if they have received the latest information from the source.
LSP Checksum This is the checksum of the entire LSP packet.
LSP Holdtime This value is the amount of time, in seconds, that the LSP remains valid. A zero holdtime indicates that this is a purged LSP and is being removed from the link state database. A value between brackets indicates the duration that the purged LSP stays in the database before being removed.
ATT This value represents the Attach bit. This indicates that the router is a Level 2 router and can reach other areas. Level 1-only routers and Level 1-2 routers that have lost connection to other Level 2 routers use the Attach bit to find the closest Level 2 router. They point a default route to the closest Level 2 router.
P This value represents the P bit.	This bit will always set be zero as Dell Force10 does not support area partition repair.
OL This value represents the overload bit, determining congestion. If the overload bit is set, other routers will not use this system as a transit router when calculating routes.

ROUTER ISIS (for IPv4)

CONFIGURATION-ROUTER-ISIS-ADDRESS-FAMILY-IPV6 (for IPv6)

Command History

Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced to support MT ISIS

Version 7.5.1.0 Expanded to support SPF Throttling Enhancement

Usage Information

This command spf-interval in CONFIG-ROUTER-ISIS-AF-IPV6 mode is used for IPv6 Multi-Topology route computation only. If using single topology mode, use the spf-interval command in CONFIG-ROUTER-ISIS mode for both IPv4 and IPv6 route computations.

SPF throttling slows down the frequency at which route calculation are performed during network instability. Even though throttling route calculations slows down network convergence, not throttling can result in a network not functioning as expected. If network topology is unstable, throttling slows down the scheduling of route calculations until the topology regains its stability.

The first route calculation is controlled by the initial wait interval and the second calculation is controlled by the second wait interval. Each subsequent wait interval is twice as long as the previous one until the wait interval reaches the maximum wait time specified (interval seconds). Once the network calms down and there are no triggers for two times the maximum interval, fast behavior is restored (the initial wait time).

Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP)

Overview

This chapter contains commands for Dell Force10's implementation of Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) for the creation of dynamic link aggregation groups (LAGs — called port-channels in FTOS parlance). For static LAG commands, see the section Port Channel Commands in the Interfaces chapter), based on the standards specified in the IEEE 802.3 Carrier sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD) access method and physical layer specifications.

Commands in this chapter generally are supported on all three Dell Force10 platforms — C-Series, E-Series, and S-Series — as indicated by the following symbols under command headings: C E S

Commands

Use the following commands for LACP:

• clear lacp counters
• debug lacp
• lacp long-timeout
• lacp port-priority
• lacp system-priority
• port-channel mode
  • port-channel-protocol lacp
  • show lacp

In addition, an FTOS option provides hitless dynamic LACP states (no noticeable impact to dynamic LACP states after an RPM failover) on E-Series. See redundancy protocol in the High Availability chapter.

mac learning-limit

Limit the maximum number of MAC addresses (static + dynamic) learned on a selected interface.

Note: Sticky MAC is not supported on the S25 or S50 in FTOS release 8.4.2.6.

Syntax

mac learning-limit address_limit [vlan vlan-id] [dynamic] [no-station-move | station-move] [sticky]

Parameters

address_limit	Enter the maximum number of MAC addresses that can be learned on the interface. Range: 1 to 1000000
vlan vlan-id	E-Series only: Enter the keyword followed by the VLAN ID. Range: 1-4094
dynamic	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword dynamic to allow aging of MACs even though a learning limit is configured.
no-station-move	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword no-station-move to disallow a station move (associate the learned MAC address with the most recently accessed port) on learned MAC addresses.

station-move	(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword station-move to allow a station move on learned MAC addresses.
sticky	(OPTIONAL) C-Series and S-Series only: Enter the keyword sticky to enable sticky MAC-address learning, which converts dynamically-learned MAC addresses on a port or port-channel interface to “sticky” MAC addresses that prevent trusted devices from moving to a different interface.

Defaults

On C-Series, the default behavior is no-station-move + static.

On E-Series, the default behavior is station-move + static.

“Static” means manually entered addresses, which do not age.

Command Modes

INTERFACE

Command History

Version 8.4.2.3	Added the sticky option on the C-Series and S-Series.
Version 8.3.1.0	Added vlan option on E-Series.
Version 8.2.1.0 Introduced on S-Series
Version 7.7.1.0	Introduced on C-Series; added station-move option
Version 6.5.1.0 Added support for MAC Learning-Limit on LAG

Usage Information

This command and its options are supported on physical interfaces, static LAGs, LACP LAGs, and VLANs.

If the vlan option is not specified, then the MAC address counters is not VLAN-based. That is, the sum of the addresses learned on all VLANs (not having any learning limit configuration) is counted against the MAC learning limit.

MAC Learning Limit violation logs and actions are not available on a per-VLAN basis.

With the keyword no-station-move option, MAC addresses learned through this feature on the selected interface will persist on a per-VLAN basis, even if received on another interface. Enabling or disabling this option has no effect on already learned MAC addresses.

Once the MAC address learning limit is reached, the MAC addresses do not age out unless you add the dynamic option. To clear statistics on MAC address learning, use the clear counters command with the learning-limit parameter.

Note: If you configure this command on an interface in a routed VLAN, and once the MAC addresses learned reaches the limit set in the mac learning-limit command, IP protocols are affected. For example, VRRP sets multiple VRRP Masters, and OSPF may not come up.

When a channel member is added to a port-channel and there is not enough ACL CAM space, then the MAC limit functionality on that port-channel is undefined. When this occurs, un-configure the existing configuration first and then reapply the limit with a lower value.

When you enable sticky MAC-address learning (sticky), dynamically-learned MAC addresses of trusted devices are added to the running configuration and “stick” to the port or VLAN on which they are learned even if an interface goes down and comes back up. If you save sticky MAC addresses to the start-up configuration file by entering the write config command, the addresses are deleted from the running-configuration, do not have to be dynamically relearned, and do not change when the switch reboots. Any sticky MAC addresses learned after the write config is performed are not saved after a reboot.

Usage Information

Use this command to check various flags associated with each MAC address in the CAM.

Figure 31-1 shows information for two MAC addresses. The second entry is for MAC address 00:00:a0:00:00:00 (leading 0s are not shown), which is shown as learned on VLAN ID 4094 (0xffff), as shown below in Figure 31-2 and Figure 31-3. Above, “STATIC_BIT=0” means that the address is dynamically learned.

When an entry is listed as STATIC_BIT=1, its HIT_SA is 0, which signifies that this address is not getting continuously learned trough traffic. The HIT_DA is set when a new learn happens, and after the first age sweep, it gets reset.

Virtual LAN (VLAN) Commands

The following commands configure and monitor Virtual LANs (VLANs). VLANs are a virtual interface and use many of the same commands as physical interfaces.

You can configure an IP address and Layer 3 protocols on a VLAN called Inter-VLAN routing. FTP, TFTP, ACLs and SNMP are not supported on a VLAN.

Occasionally, while sending broadcast traffic over multiple Layer 3 VLANs, the VRRP state of a VLAN interface may continually switch between Master and Backup.

Usage Information

FTOS supports a command to enable viewing of the VLAN input/output counters. This command also applies to SNMP requests. If the command is not enabled, IFM returns zero values for VLAN output counters.

SNMP counters differ from show interface counters as SNMP counters must maintain history. At any point, the value of SNMP counters reflect the amount of traffic being carried on the VLAN.

VLAN output counters may show higher than expected values because source-suppression drops are counted.

During an RPM failover event, all SNMP counters remain intact. The counters will sync over to the secondary RPM.

Link Layer Detection Protocol (LLDP)

Overview

Link Layer Detection Protocol (LLDP) advertises connectivity and management from the local station to the adjacent stations on an IEEE 802 LAN. LLDP facilitates multi-vendor interoperability by using standard management tools to discover and make available a physical topology for network management. The FTOS implementation of LLDP is based on IEEE standard 801.1ab.

The basic LLDP commands are supported by FTOS on all Dell Force10 systems, as indicated by the characters that appear below each command heading:

• C-Series: C
• E-Series: E
• S-Series: S

Commands

This chapter contains the following commands, in addition to the commands in the related section — LLDP-MED Commands.

• advertise dot1-tlv
• advertise dot3-tlv
• advertise management
• clear lldp counters
• clear lldp neighbors
• debug lldp interface
• disable
• hello
  • mode
• multiplier
• protocol lldp (Configuration)
• protocol lldp (Interface)
  • show lldp neighbors
  • show lldp statistics
  • show running-config lldp

The starting point for using LLDP is invoking LLDP with the protocol lldp command in either the CONFIGURATION or INTERFACE mode.

The information distributed by LLDP is stored by its recipients in a standard Management Information Base (MIB). The information can be accessed by a network management system through a management protocol such as SNMP.

See the Link Layer Discovery Protocol chapter of the FTOS Configuration Guide for details on implementing LLDP/LLDP-MED.

LLDP-MED Commands

The LLDP-MED commands in this section are:

FTOS LLDP-MED (Media Endpoint Discovery) commands are an extension of the set of LLDP TLV advertisement commands. The C-Series and S-Series support all commands, as indicated by these symbols underneath the command headings: C S

The E-Series generally supports the commands, too, as indicated by the symbol under command headings. However, LLDP-MED commands are more useful on the C-Series and the S50V model of the S-Series, because they support Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices.

As defined by ANSI/TIA-1057, LLDP-MED provides organizationally specific TLVs (Type Length Value), so that endpoint devices and network connectivity devices can advertise their characteristics and configuration information. The Organizational Unique Identifier (OUI) for the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) is 00-12-BB.

• LLDP-MED Endpoint Device—any device that is on an IEEE 802 LAN network edge, can communicate using IP, and uses the LLDP-MED framework.
• LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Device—any device that provides access to an IEEE 802 LAN to an LLDP-MED endpoint device, and supports IEEE 802.1AB (LLDP) and TIA-1057 (LLDP-MED). The Dell Force10 system is an LLDP-MED network connectivity device.

With regard to connected endpoint devices, LLDP-MED provides network connectivity devices with the ability to:

• manage inventory
• manage Power over Ethernet (POE)
• identify physical location
• identify network policy

Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP)

Overview

MSDP (Multicast Source Discovery Protocol) connects multiple PIM Sparse-Mode (PIM-SM) domains together. MSDP peers connect using TCP port 639. Peers send keepalives every 60 seconds. A peer connection is reset after 75 seconds if no MSDP packets are received. MSDP connections are parallel with MBGP connections. FTOS supports MSDP commands on the E-Series only, as indicated by the E character that appears below each command heading.

Commands

The commands are:

• clear ip msdp peer
• clear ip msdp sa-cache
• debug ip msdp
• ip msdp cache-rejected-sa

Usage Information

A MSDP mesh group is a mechanism for reducing SA flooding, typically in an intra-domain setting. When some subset of a domain's MSDP speakers are fully meshed, they can be configured into a mesh-group. If member X of a mesh-group receives a SA message from an MSDP peer that is also a member of the mesh-group, member X accepts the SA message and forwards it to all of its peers that are not part of the mesh-group. However, member X can not forward the SA message to other members of the mesh-group.

Command History

Version 7.6.1.0 Added support for S-Series

Version 7.5.1.0 Added support for C-Series

Version 6.5.1.0 Introduced

Usage Information

The max-hops is a configuration command that applies to both the IST and all MST instances in the MSTP region. The BPDUs sent out by the root switch set the remaining-hops parameter to the configured value of max-hops. When a switch receives the BPDU, it decrements the received value of the remaining hops and uses the resulting value as remaining-hops in the BPDUs. If the remaining-hops reaches zero, the switch discards the BPDU and ages out any information that it holds for the port.

msti

Configure Multiple Spanning Tree instance, bridge priority, and one or multiple VLANs mapped to the MST instance.

Syntax

msti instance {vlan range | bridge-priority priority}

To disable mapping or bridge priority no msti instance {vlan range | bridge-priority priority}

Version 8.5.1.0	Introduced the loopguard and rootguard options on the E-Series ExaScale.
Version 8.4.2.1	Introduced the loopguard and rootguard options on the E-Series TeraScale, C-Series, and S-Series.
Version 8.2.1.0 Introduced hardware shutdown-on-violation option
Version 7.6.1.0 Added support for S-Series
Version 7.5.1.0 Added support for C-Series
Version 6.1.1.0 Support for BPDU guard added

Usage Information

On an MSTP switch, a port configured as an edge port will immediately transition to the forwarding state. Only ports connected to end-hosts should be configured as an edge port. Consider an edge port similar to a port with spanning-tree portfast enabled.

If shutdown-on-violation is not enabled, BPDUs will still be sent to the RPM CPU.

Root guard and loop guard cannot be enabled at the same time on a port. For example, if you configure loop guard on a port on which root guard is already configured, the following error message is displayed:

% Error: RootGuard is configured. Cannot configure LoopGuard.

When used in an MSTP network, if root guard blocks a boundary port in the CIST, the port is also blocked in all other MST instances.

Enabling Portfast BPDU guard and loop guard at the same time on a port results in a port that remains in a blocking state and prevents traffic from flowing through it. For example, when Portfast BPDU guard and loop guard are both configured:

• If a BPDU is received from a remote device, BPDU guard places the port in an err-disabled blocking state and no traffic is forwarded on the port.
• If no BPDU is received from a remote device, loop guard places the port in a loop-inconsistent blocking state and no traffic is forwarded on the port.

C E S	Enable the MAC address flushing upon receiving every topology change notification.
Syntax	tc-flush-standardTo disable, use theno tc-flush-standardcommand.

Command Modes	CONFIGURATION
Command History	Version 7.6.1.0 Added support for S-Series
	Version 7.5.1.0 Added support for C-Series

Usage Information	By default FTOS implements an optimized flush mechanism for MSTP. This helps in flushing the MAC addresses only when necessary (and less often) allowing for faster convergence during topology changes. However, if a standards-based flush mechanism is needed, this knob command can be turned on to enable flushing MAC addresses upon receiving every topology change notification.

Version 7.5.1.0 Expanded to support originator

Version 7.4.1.0 Expanded to support intermediate (transit) router

E-Series legacy command

Usage Information

Mtrace is an IGMP protocol based on the Multicast trace route facility and implemented according to the IETF draft “A trace route facility for IP Multicast” (draft-fenner-traceroute-ipm-01.txt). FTOS supports the Mtrace client and transmit functionality.

As an Mtrace client, FTOS transmits Mtrace queries, receives, parses and prints out the details in the response packet received.

As an Mtrace transit or intermediate router, FTOS returns the response to Mtrace queries. Upon receiving the Mtrace request, FTOS computes the RPF neighbor for the source, fills in the request and the forwards the request to the RPF neighbor. While computing the RPF neighbor, the static mroute and mBGP route is preferred over the unicast route.

restrict-flooding

Prevent Layer 2 multicast traffic from being flooded on ports below a specified link speed.

Syntax restrict-flooding multicast min-speed speed

Parameters	min-speed min-speed	Enter the minimum link speed that a port must have to receive flooded multicast traffic. Range: 1000
Defaults	None
Command Modes	INTERFACE VLAN
Command History	Version 7.7.1.0 Introduced on E-Series TeraScale
Usage Information	This command restricts flooding for all unknown multicast traffic on ports below a certain speed. If you want some multicast traffic to be flooded on slower ports, use the command mac-flood-list without the min-speed option, in combination with restrict-flooding. With mac-flood-list you specify the traffic you want to be flooded using a MAC address range.
	You may not use unicast MAC addresses when specifying MAC address ranges, and do not overlap MAC addresses ranges, when creating multiple mac-flood-list entries for the same VLAN. Restricted Layer 2 Flooding is not compatible with MAC accounting or VLANs.
Related Commands	mac-flood-list Flood multicast frames with specified MAC addresses to all ports in a VLAN.

Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP)

Overview

Neighbor Discovery Protocol for IPv6 is defined in RFC 2461 as part of the Stateless Address Autoconfiguration protocol. It replaces the Address Resolution Protocol used with IPv4. It defines mechanisms for solving the following problems:

• Router discovery: Hosts can locate routers residing on a link.
• Prefix discovery: Hosts can discover address prefixes for the link.
• Parameter discovery
• Address autoconfiguration — configuration of addresses for an interface
• Address resolution — mapping from IP address to link-layer address
• Next-hop determination
• Neighbor Unreachability Detection (NUD): Determine that a neighbor is no longer reachable on the link.
• Duplicate Address Detection (DAD): Allow a node to check whether a proposed address is already in use.
• Redirect: The router can inform a node about a better first-hop.

NDP makes use of the following five ICMPv6 packet types in its implementation:

• Router Solicitation
• Router Advertisement
• Neighbor Solicitation
• Neighbor Advertisement
• Redirect

Commands

The Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) commands in this chapter are:

• clear ipv6 neighbors
• ipv6 nd managed-config-flag
• ipv6 nd max-ra-interval
• ipv6 nd mtu
• ipv6 nd other-config-flag
• ipv6 nd prefix
• ipv6 nd ra-lifetime

• ipv6 nd reachable-time

• ipv6 nd suppress-ra

• ipv6 neighbor
  • show ipv6 neighbors

clear ipv6 neighbors

E

Delete all entries in the IPv6 neighbor discovery cache, or neighbors of a specific interface. Static entries will not be removed using this command.

Syntax

clear ipv6 neighbors [ipv6-address] [interface]

Parameters

ipv6-address

Enter the IPv6 address of the neighbor in the X:X:X:X::X format to remove a specific IPv6 neighbor.The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zero.

interface interface

To remove all neighbor entries learned on a specific interface, enter the keywordinterfacefollowed by the interface type and slot/port or number information of the interface:For a Fast Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fastEthernet followed by the slot/port information.For a 1-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keywordGigabitEthernetfollowed by the slot/port information.For a Port Channel interface, enter the keyword port-channel followed by a number:E-Series Range: 1 to 32 for EtherScale, 1 to 255 for TeraScale and 1 to 512 for ExaScale.For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keywordTenGigabitEthernetfollowed by the slot/port information.For a VLAN, enter the keyword vlan followed by the VLAN ID. The range is from 1 to 4094.

Command Modes

EXEC

EXEC Privilege

ipv6 nd managed-config-flag

E

Set the managed address configuration flag in the IPv6 router advertisement. The description of this flag from RFC 2461 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2461) is:

M: 1-bit “Managed address configuration” flag. When set, hosts use the administered (stateful) protocol for address autoconfiguration in addition to any addresses autoconfigured using stateless address autoconfiguration. The use of this flag is described in:

Thomson, S. and T. Narten, "IPv6 Address Autoconfiguration", RFC 2462, December 1998.

Syntax

ipv6 nd managed-config-flag

To clear the flag from the IPv6 router advertisements, use the no ipv6 nd managed-config-flag command.

Defaults

The default flag is 0.

Command Modes

INTERFACE

ipv6 nd max-ra-interval

E Configure the interval between the IPv6 router advertisement (RA) transmissions on an interface.

Syntax ipv6 nd max-ra-interval {interval} min-ra-interval {interval}

To restore the default interval, use the no ipv6 nd max-ra-interval command.

Parameters	max-ra-interval {interval}	Enter the keyword max-ra-interval followed by the interval in seconds. Range: 4 to 1800 seconds
	min-ra-interval {interval}	Enter the keyword min-ra-interval followed by the interval in seconds. Range: 3 to 1350 seconds

Defaults Max RA interval: 600 seconds, Min RA interval: 200 seconds

Command Modes INTERFACE

ipv6 nd mtu

C E S Configure an IPv6 neighbor discovery.

Syntax ipv6 nd mtu number

Parameters

mtu number Set the MTU advertisement value in Routing PrefixAdvertisement packets. Range: 1280 to 9234

Defaults No default values or behavior

Command Modes INTERFACE

Command History Version 8.3.1.0 Introduced

Usage The ip nd mtu command sets the value advertised to routers. It does not set the actual MTU rate. For example, if ip nd mtu is set to 1280, the interface will still pass 1500-byte packets.

The mtu command sets the actual frame size passed, and can be larger than the advertised MTU. If the mtu setting is larger than the ip nd mtu, an error message is sent, but the configuration is accepted.

% Error: nd ra mtu is greater than link mtu, link mtu will be used.

Related Commands

mtu

Set the maximum link MTU (frame size) for an Ethernet interface.

ipv6 nd other-config-flag

Set the other stateful configuration flag in the IPv6 router advertisement. The description of this flag from RFC 2461 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2461) is:

O: 1-bit “Other stateful configuration” flag. When set, hosts use the administered (stateful) protocol for autoconfiguration of other (non-address) information. The use of this flag is described in:

Thomson, S. and T. Narten, "IPv6 Address Autoconfiguration", RFC 2462, December 1998.

Syntax ipv6 nd other-config-flag

To clear the flag from the IPv6 router advertisements, use the no ipv6 nd other-config-flag command.

Defaults The default flag is 0.

Command Modes INTERFACE

ipv6 nd prefix

Configure how IPv6 prefixes are advertised in the IPv6 router advertisements. The description of an IPv6 prefix from RFC 2461(http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2461) is a bit string that consists of some number of initial bits of an address.

Syntax ipv6 nd prefix {ipv6-address prefix-length | default} [no-advertise] | [no-autoconfig | no-rtr-address | off-link]

Object Tracking

Object Tracking supports IPv4 and IPv6, and is available on platforms: C E S

Overview

Object tracking allows you to define objects of interest, monitor their state, and report to a client when a change in an object's state occurs. The following tracked objects are supported:

• Link status of Layer 2 interfaces
• Routing status of Layer 3 interfaces (IPv4 and IPv6)
• Reachability of IPv4 and IPv6 routes
  • Metric thresholds of IPv4 and IPv6 routes

You can configure client applications, such VRRP, to receive a notification when the state of a tracked object changes.

This chapter has the following sections:

• IPv4 Object Tracking Commands on page 987
• IPv6 Object Tracking Commands on page 1001

IPv4 Object Tracking Commands

The IPv4 VRRP commands are:

• debug track
• delay
• description
  • show running-config track
  • show track
• threshold metric
• track interface ip routing

Parameters	all	Enables debugging on the state and notifications of all tracked objects.
	notifications	Enables debugging on the notifications of all tracked objects.
	object-id	Enables debugging on the state and notifications of the specified tracked object. Range: 1 to 65535.

Defaults

Enable debugging on the state and notifications of all tracked objects (debug track all).

Command Modes	EXEC
	EXEC Privilege
Command History	Version 8.4.1.0 Introduced

Example

Command Example: debug track

Force10#debug track all

04:35:04: %RPM0-P:RP2 %OTM-5-NOTIF: VRRP notification: resource ID 6 DOWN

delay

Configure the time delay used before communicating a change in the status of a tracked object to clients.

Syntax

delay { [up seconds] [down seconds]}

To return to the default setting, enter no delay.

Parameters

seconds

Enter the number of seconds the object tracker waits before sending a notification about the change in the UP and/or DOWN state of a tracked object to clients. Range: 0 to 180 Default: 0 seconds.

Defaults

0 seconds

Command Modes

OBJECT TRACKING (conf_track_object-id)

Command History

Version 8.4.1.0 Introduced

Related Commands

track interface ip routing	Configure object tracking on the routing status of an IPv4 Layer 3 interface.
track interface line-protocol	Configure object tracking on the line-protocol state of a Layer 2 interface.
track ip route metric threshold	Configure object tracking on the threshold of an IPv4 route metric.
track ip route reachability	Configure object tracking on the reachability of an IPv4 route.

Usage Information

You can configure an UP and/or DOWN timer for each tracked object to set the time delay before a change in the state of a tracked object is communicated to clients. The configured time delay starts when the state changes from UP to DOWN or vice-versa.

If the state of an object changes back to its former UP/DOWN state before the timer expires, the timer is cancelled and the client is not notified. For example, if the DOWN timer is running when an interface goes down and comes back up, the DOWN timer is cancelled and the client is not notified of the event.

If the timer expires and an object's state has changed, a notification is sent to the client. If no delay is configured, a notification is sent immediately as soon as a change in the state of a tracked object is detected. The time delay in communicating a state change is specified in seconds.

description

Command History

Version 8.4.1.0 Introduced
track ip route metric threshold	Configure object tracking on the threshold of an IPv4 route metric.
track resolution ip route	Configure the protocol-specific resolution value used to scale an IPv4 route metric.

Related Commands
Usage Information

Use this command to configure the UP and/or DOWN threshold for the scaled metric of a tracked IPv4 or IPv6 route.

The UP/DOWN state of a tracked route is determined by the threshold for the current value of the route metric in the routing table. To provide a common tracking interface for different clients, route metrics are scaled in the range 0 to 255, where 0 is connected and 255 is inaccessible. The scaled metric value communicated to a client always considers a lower value to have priority over a higher value.

The resulting scaled value is compared against the configured threshold values to determine the state of a tracked route as follows:

• If the scaled metric for a route entry is less than or equal to the UP threshold, the state of a route is UP.
• If the scaled metric for a route is greater than or equal to the DOWN threshold or the route is not entered in the routing table, the state of a route is DOWN.

You configure the UP and DOWN thresholds for each tracked route with the threshold metric command. The default UP threshold is 254; the default DOWN threshold is 255. The notification of a change in the state of a tracked object is sent when a metric value crosses a configured threshold.

The tracking process uses a protocol-specific resolution value to convert the actual metric in the routing table to a scaled metric in the range 0 to 255. You can configure the resolution value used to scale route metrics for supported protocols with the track resolution ip route and track resolution ipv6 route commands.

	threshold metric	Configure the metric threshold used to determine the UP and/or DOWN state of a tracked route.
	track resolution ip route	Configure the protocol-specific resolution value used to scale an IPv4 route metric.
Usage Information	Use this command to create an object that tracks the UP and/or DOWN threshold of an IPv4 route metric. In order for a route's metric to be tracked, the route must appear as an entry in the routing table.
	A tracked IPv4 route is considered to match an entry in the routing table only if the exact IPv4 address and prefix length match a table entry. For example, when configured as a tracked route, 10.0.0.0/24 does not match the routing table entry 10.0.0.0/8. If no route-table entry has the exact IPv4 address and prefix length, the status of the tracked route is considered to be DOWN.
	When you configure the threshold of an IPv4 route metric as a tracked object, the UP/DOWN state of the tracked route is also determined by the current metric for the route in the routing table.
	To provide a common tracking interface for different clients, route metrics are scaled in the range 0 to 255, where 0 is connected and 255 is inaccessible. The scaled metric value communicated to a client always considers a lower value to have priority over a higher value. The resulting scaled value is compared against the configured threshold values to determine the state of a tracked route as follows:
	If the scaled metric for a route entry is less than or equal to the UP threshold, the state of a route is UP.If the scaled metric for a route is greater than or equal to the DOWN threshold or the route is not entered in the routing table, the state of a route is DOWN.
	You configure the UP and DOWN thresholds for each tracked route by using the threshold metric command. The default UP threshold is 254; the default DOWN threshold is 255. The notification of a change in the state of a tracked object is sent when a metric value crosses a configured threshold.

track ip route metric threshold	Configure object tracking on the threshold of an IPv4 route metric.

Usage Information

Use this command to create an object that tracks the reachability of an IPv4 route. In order for a route's reachability to be tracked, the route must appear as an entry in the routing table.

A tracked IPv4 route is considered to match an entry in the routing table only if the exact IPv4 address and prefix length match a table entry. For example, when configured as a tracked route, 10.0.0.0/24 does not match the routing table entry 10.0.0.0/8. If no route-table entry has the exact IPv4 address and prefix length, the status of the tracked route is considered to be DOWN.

When you configure IPv4 route reachability as a tracked object, the UP/DOWN state of the tracked route is also determined by the entry of the next-hop address in the ARP cache. A tracked route is considered to be reachable if there is an ARP cache entry for the route's next-hop address.

If the next-hop address in the ARP cache ages out for a route tracked for its reachability, an attempt is made to regenerate the ARP cache entry to see if the next-hop address appears before considering the route DOWN.
