Description of Software Features


The switch provides a wide range of advanced performance enhancing features. Flow control eliminates the loss of packets due to bottlenecks caused by port saturation. Broadcast storm suppression prevents broadcast traffic storms from engulfing the network. Port-based and protocol-based VLANs, plus support for automatic GVRP VLAN registration provide traffic security and efficient use of network bandwidth. CoS priority queueing ensures the minimum delay for moving real-time multimedia data across the network. While multicast filtering provides support for real-time network applications. Some of the management features are briefly described below. Configuration Backup and Restore You can save the current configuration settings to a file on a TFTP server, and later download this file to restore the switch configuration settings. Authentication This switch authenticates management access via the console port, Telnet or web browser. User names and passwords can be configured locally or can be verified via a remote authentication server (i.e., RADIUS or TACACS+). Port-based and MAC-based authentication is also supported via the IEEE 802.1x protocol. This protocol uses the Extensible Authentication Protocol over LANs (EAPOL) to request user credentials from the 802.1x client, and then verifies the clients right to access the network via an authentication server. Other authentication options include HTTPS for secure management access via the web, SSH for secure management access over a Telnet-equivalent connection, SNMP version 3, IP address filtering for SNMP/web/Telnet management access, and MAC address filtering for port access.

Introduction

MAC Address Capacity Support The device supports up to 16K MAC addresses. The device reserves specific MAC addresses for system use. Self-Learning MAC Addresses The device enables automatic MAC addresses learning from incoming packets. Automatic Aging for MAC Addresses MAC addresses from which no traffic is received for a given period are aged out. This prevents the Bridging Table from overflowing. Static MAC Entries User defined static MAC entries are stored in the Bridging Table, in addition to the Self Learned MAC addresses. VLAN-Aware MAC-based Switching Packets arriving from an unknown source address are sent to the CPU. When source addresses are added to the Hardware Table, packets addressed to this address are then forwarded straight to corresponding port. MAC Multicast Support Multicast service is a limited broadcast service, which allows one-to-many and many-to-many connections for information distribution. Layer 2 multicast service is where a single frame is addressed to a specific multicast address, and copies of the frame transmitted to relevant all relevant ports. Address Resolution Protocol IP routing generally utilizes routers and Layer 3 switches to inter-communicate using various routing protocols to discover network topology and define Routing tables. Device Next-Hop MAC addresses are automatically derived by ARP. This includes directly attached end systems. Users can override and supplement this by defining additional ARP Table entries. QinQ tagging QinQ tagging allows network managers to add an additional tag to previously tagged packets. Adding additional tags to the packets helps create more VLAN space. The added tag provides an VLAN ID to each customer, this ensures private and segregated network traffic. Port Configuration You can manually configure the speed, duplex mode, and flow control used on specific ports, or use auto-negotiation to detect the connection settings used by the attached device. Use the full-duplex mode on ports whenever possible to double the throughput of switch connections. Flow control should also be enabled to control network traffic during periods of congestion and prevent the loss of packets when port buffer thresholds are exceeded. The switch supports flow control based on the IEEE 802.3x standard. Rate Limiting This feature controls the maximum rate for traffic transmitted or received on an interface. Rate limiting is configured on interfaces at the edge of a network to limit traffic into or out of the network. Traffic that falls within the rate limit is transmitted, while packets that exceed the acceptable amount of traffic are dropped. Port Mirroring The switch can unobtrusively mirror traffic from any port to a monitor port. You can then attach a protocol analyzer or RMON probe to this port to perform traffic analysis and verify connection integrity. Port Trunking Ports can be combined into an aggregate connection. Trunks can be manually set up or dynamically configured using IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation

Description of Software Features

Control Protocol (LACP). The additional ports dramatically increase the throughput across any connection, and provide redundancy by taking over the load if a port in the trunk should fail. The switch supports up to 6 trunks. Broadcast Storm Control Broadcast suppression prevents broadcast traffic from overwhelming the network. When enabled on a port, the level of broadcast traffic passing through the port is restricted. If broadcast traffic rises above a pre-defined threshold, it will be throttled until the level falls back beneath the threshold. Static Addresses A static MAC address can be assigned to a specific interface on this switch. Static addresses are bound to the assigned interface and will not be moved. When a static address is seen on another interface, the address will be ignored and will not be written to the address table. Static addresses can be used to provide network security by restricting access for a known host to a specific port. STP BPDU Guard Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDU) Guard expands network adminstrators ablility to enforce STP borders and maintain STP topologies realibility. BPDU is utilized when Fast Link ports is enabled and/or if the Spanning Tree Protocol is disabled on ports. If a BPDU message is sent to a port on which STP is disabled, BPDU Guard shuts down the port, and generates a SNMP message. STP Root Guard Spanning Tree Root Guard is used to prevent an unauthorized device from becoming the root of a spanning tree. Root guard functionality enables detection and resolution of misconfigurations, while preventing loops or loss of connectivity. 802.1x - MAC Authentication MAC authentication like the 802.1X allows network access to a device, for example, printers and IP phones, that do not have the 802.1X supplicant capability. MAC authentication uses the MAC address of the connecting device to grant or deny network access. To support MAC authentication, the RADIUS authentication server maintains a database of MAC addresses for devices that require access to the network. In order for the feature to be active, 802.1x must be in auto-mode. User then can enable the MAC authentication feature in one of following modes: MAC Only Where only MAC authentication is enabled MAC + 802.1x (In that case 802.1x takes precedence) The feature can be enabled per port. The port must be a member of a guest VLAN prior of activating the feature. DHCP Snooping DHCP Snooping expands network security by providing a firewall security between untrusted interfaces and DHCP servers. By enabling DHCP Snooping network administrators can identify between trusted interfaces connected to end-users or DHCP Servers, and untrusted interface located beyond the network firewall. DHCP Snooping creates and maintains a DHCP Snooping Table which contains information received from untrusted packets. Interfaces are untrusted if the packet is received from an interface from outside the network or from a interface beyond the network firewall.

Introduction

DHCP Option 82 DHCP server can insert information into DHCP requests. The DHCP information is used to assign IP addresses to network interfaces. IP Source Address Guard IP source guard stops malignant network users from using unallocated network IP addresses. IP Source Guard ensures that only packets with an IP address stored in the DHCP Database are forwarded. IP address stored in the DHCP Snooping Database are either statically configured by the network administrator or are retrieved using DHCP. IP source guard can be enabled only on DHCP snooping untrusted interface. Dynamic ARP Inspection ARP Inspection eliminates man-in-the-middle attacks, where false ARP packets are inserted into the subnet. ARP requests and responses are inspected, and their MAC Address to IP Address binding is checked. Packets with invalid ARP Inspection Bindings are logged and dropped. Packets are classified as: Trusted Indicates that the interface IP and MAC address are recognized, and recorded in the ARP Inspec-tion List. Trusted packets are forward without ARP Inspection. Untrusted Indicates that the packet arrived from an interface that does not have a recognized IP and MAC addresses. The packet is checked for: Source MAC Compares the packets source MAC address against the senders MAC address in the ARP request. This check is performed on both ARP requests and responses. Destination MAC Compares the packets destination MAC address against the destination interfaces MAC address. This check is performed for ARP responses. IP Addresses Compares the ARP body for invalid and unexpected IP addresses. Addresses include 0.0.0.0, 255.255.255.255, and all IP Multicast addresses. If the packets IP address was not found in the ARP Inspection List, and DHCP snooping is enabled for a VLAN, a search of the DHCP Snooping Database is performed. If the IP address is found the packet is valid, and is forwarded. ARP inspection is performed only on untrusted interfaces. LLDP - The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) allows network managers to troubleshoot and enhance network management by discovering and maintaining network topologies over multi-vendor environments. LLDP discovers network neighbors by standardizing methods for network devices to advertise themselves to other system, and to store discovered information. Device discovery information includes: Device Identification Device Capabilities Device Configuration The advertising device transmits multiple advertisement message sets in a single LAN packet. The multiple advertisement sets are sent in the packet Type Length Value (TLV) field. LLDP devices must support chassis and port ID advertisement, as well as system name, system ID, system description, and system capability

LLDP-MED LLDP Media Endpoint Discovery (LLDP-MED) increases network flexibility by allowing different IP systems to co-exist on a single network. Provides detailed network topology information, including what device are located on the network, and where the devices are located. For example, which IP phone is connect to what port, which software is running on what switch, and which port is connected to what PC. Spanning Tree Protocol The switch supports these spanning tree protocols: Spanning Tree Protocol (STP, IEEE 802.1D) This protocol adds a level of fault tolerance by allowing two or more redundant connections to be created between a pair of LAN segments. When there are multiple physical paths between segments, this protocol will choose a single path and disable all others to ensure that only one route exists between any two stations on the network. This prevents the creation of network loops. However, if the chosen path should fail for any reason, an alternate path will be activated to maintain the connection. Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP, IEEE 802.1w) This protocol reduces the convergence time for network topology changes to about 10% of that required by the older IEEE 802.1D STP standard. It is intended as a complete replacement for STP, but can still interoperate with switches running the older standard by automatically reconfiguring ports to STP-compliant mode if they detect STP protocol messages from attached devices. Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP, IEEE 802.1s) This protocol is a direct extension of RSTP. It can provide an independent spanning tree for different VLANs. It simplifies network management, provides for even faster convergence than RSTP by limiting the size of each region, and prevents VLAN members from being segmented from the rest of the group (as sometimes occurs with IEEE 802.1D STP). Virtual LANs The switch supports up to 255 VLANs. A Virtual LAN is a collection of network nodes that share the same broadcast domain regardless of their physical location or connection point in the network. The switch supports tagged VLANs based on the IEEE 802.1Q standard. Members of VLAN groups can be dynamically learned via GVRP, or ports can be manually assigned to a specific set of VLANs. This allows the switch to restrict traffic to the VLAN groups to which a user has been assigned. By segmenting your network into VLANs, you can: Eliminate broadcast storms which severely degrade performance in a flat network. Simplify network management for node changes/moves by remotely configuring VLAN membership for any port, rather than having to manually change the network connection. Provide data security by restricting all traffic to the originating VLAN. Use private VLANs to restrict traffic to pass only between data ports and the uplink ports, thereby isolating adjacent ports within the same VLAN, and allowing you to limit the total number of VLANs that need to be configured. Use protocol VLANs to restrict traffic to specified interfaces based on protocol type.

Introduction

Traffic Prioritization This switch prioritizes each packet based on the required level of service, using eight priority queues with strict or Weighted Round Robin Queuing. It uses IEEE 802.1p and 802.1Q tags to prioritize incoming traffic based on input from the end-station application. These functions can be used to provide independent priorities for delay-sensitive data and best-effort data. This switch also supports several common methods of prioritizing layer 3/4 traffic to meet application requirements. Traffic can be prioritized based on the priority bits in the IP frames Type of Service (ToS) octet or the number of the TCP/UDP port. When these services are enabled, the priorities are mapped to a Class of Service value by the switch, and the traffic then sent to the corresponding output queue. Multicast Filtering Specific multicast traffic can be assigned to its own VLAN to ensure that it does not interfere with normal network traffic and to guarantee real-time delivery by setting the required priority level for the designated VLAN. The switch uses IGMP Snooping and Query to manage multicast group registration. Virtual Cable Testing (VCT) VCT detects and reports copper link cabling occurrences, such as open cables and cable shorts. MDI/MDIX Support The device supports auto-detection between crossed and straight-through cables. Standard wiring for end stations is Media-Dependent Interface (MDI) and the standard wiring for hubs and switches is known as Media-Dependent Interface with Crossover (MDIX). Quality of Service (QoS) Support Network traffic is usually unpredictable, and the only basic assurance that can be offered is Best Effort traffic delivery. To overcome this challenge, Quality of Service (QoS) is applied throughout the network. This ensures that network traffic is prioritized according to specified criteria, and that specific traffic receives preferential treatment. QoS in the network optimizes network performance. The device supports the following QoS modes: Basic Advanced Class Of Service 802.1p Support The IEEE 802.1p signaling technique is an OSI Layer 2 standard for marking and prioritizing network traffic at the data link/MAC sub-layer. 802.1p traffic is classified and sent to the destination. No bandwidth reservations or limits are established or enforced. 802.1p is a spin-off of the 802.1Q (Vlans) standard. 802.1p establishes eight levels of priority, similar to the IP Precedence IP Header bit-field. Quality of Service Basic Mode In the Basic QoS mode, it is possible to activate a trust mode (to trust VPT, DSCP, TCP/UDP or none). In addition, a single Access Control List can be attached to an interface. Web Based Management With web based management, the system can be managed from any web browser. The system contains an Embedded Web Server (EWS), which serves HTML pages, through which the system can be monitored and configured. The system internally converts web-based input into configuration commands, MIB variable settings and other management-related settings.

System Defaults

Remote Monitoring Remote Monitoring (RMON) is an extension to SNMP, which provides comprehensive network traffic monitoring capabilities (as opposed to SNMP which allows network device management and monitoring). RMON is a standard MIB that defines current and historical MAC-layer statistics and control objects, allowing real-time information to be captured across the entire network. VLAN Groups Provides VLAN classification by MAC address, subnet, and protocol groups. Multicast TV Supplies multicast transmissions to L2-isolated subscribers, without replicating the multicast transmissions for each subscriber VLAN Port Based Authentication Port based authentication enables authenticating system users on a per-port basis via an external server. Only authenticated and approved system users can transmit and receive data. Ports are authenticated via the Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) server using the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP).

General Configuration Information

Auto-Negotiation
Auto-negotiation allows a device to advertise modes of operation and share information with another device that shares a point-to-point link segment. This automatically configures both devices to take maximum advantage of their abilities. Auto-negotiation is performed completely within the physical layers during link initiation, without any additional overhead to either the MAC or higher protocol layers. Auto-negotiation allows the ports to do the following: Advertise their abilities Acknowledge receipt and understanding of the common modes of operation that both devices share Reject the use of operational modes that are not shared by both devices Configure each port for the highest-level operational mode that both ports can support If connecting a port of the switch to the network interface card (NIC) of a terminal that does not support auto-negotiation or is not set to auto-negotiation, both the device port and the NIC must be manually set with the Web browser interface or CLI commands to the same speed and duplex mode. Note: If the station on the other side of the link attempts to auto-negotiate with a port that
is manually configured to full duplex, the auto-negotiation results in the station attempting to operate in half duplex. The resulting mismatch may lead to significant frame loss. This is inherent in the auto-negotiation standard.

Booting the Switch


To boot the switch, perform the following: 1. 2. 3. 4. Ensure that the device console is connected to a VT100 terminal device or VT100 terminal emulator. Deactivate the AC power receptacle. Connect the device to the AC receptacle. Activate the AC power receptacle.

When the power is turned on with the local terminal already connected, the switch goes through Power On Self Test (POST). POST runs every time the device is initialized and checks hardware components to determine if the device is fully operational before completely booting. If a critical problem is detected, the program flow stops. If POST passes successfully, a valid executable image is loaded into RAM. POST messages are displayed on the terminal and indicate test success or failure. As the switch boots, the bootup test first counts the device memory availability and then continues to boot. The following screen is an example of the displayed POST.

Booting the Switch


The auto-boot message that appears at the end of POST (see the last lines) indicates that no problems were encountered during boot.

During boot, the Startup menu can be accessed if necessary to run special procedures. To enter the Startup menu, press <Esc> or <Enter> within the first two seconds after the auto-boot message is displayed. For information on the Startup menu, see "Startup Menu Functions." If the system boot is not interrupted by pressing <Esc> or <Enter>, the system continues operation by decompressing and loading the code into RAM. The code starts running from RAM and the list of numbered system ports and their states (up or down) are displayed. Note: The following screen is an example configuration. Items such as addresses,
versions, and dates may differ for each device.

After the switch boots successfully, a system prompt appears (console>) and the local terminal can be used to begin configuring the switch. However, before

17

Initial Configuration
configuring the switch, ensure that the software version installed on the device is the latest version. If it is not the latest version, download and install the latest version. See "Software Download and Reboot."

Configuration Overview
Before assigning a static IP address to the device, obtain the following information from the network administrator: A specific IP address allocated by the network administrator for the switch to be configured Network mask for the network There are two types of configuration: Initial configuration consists of configuration functions with basic security considerations, whereas advanced configuration includes dynamic IP configuration and more advanced security considerations. After making any configuration changes, the new configuration must be saved before rebooting. To save the configuration, enter the following CLI command:
Console#

copy running-config startup-config

4-365

Initial Configuration
Initial configuration, which starts after the device has booted successfully, includes static IP address and subnet mask configuration, and setting user name and privilege level to allow remote management. If the device is to be managed from an SNMP-based management station, SNMP community strings must also be configured. The following configurations are completed: Static IP Address and Subnet Mask Static Route Configuration User Name SNMP Community strings

Static IP Address and Subnet Mask


IP interfaces can be configured on each interface of the device. After entering the configuration command, it is recommended to check if a interface was configured with the IP address by entering the show ip interface command. The commands to configure the device are interface specific. To manage the switch from a remote network, a static route must be configured, which is an IP address to where packets are sent when no entries are found in the device tables. The configured IP address must belong to the same subnet as one of the device IP interfaces.

18

Initial Configuration

To configure a static route, enter the command at the system prompt as shown in the following configuration example where 101.1.1.2 is the specific management station:
Console# configure Console(config)# interface vlan 1 Console(config-if)# ip address 100.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 Console(config-if)# exit Console(config)# ip default-gateway 100.1.1.10

Gateway IP Address Gateway IP Type Address 10.7.1.1 Static IP Address Interface --------------------10.7.1.192/24 VLAN1 10.7.2.192/24 VLAN2 Activity Status Active Type ------------static DHCP

User Name
A user name is used to manage the device remotely, for example through SSH, Telnet, or the Web interface. To gain complete administrative (super-user) control over the device, the highest privilege level 15 must be specified. Note: Only the administrator (super-user) with the highest privilege level (15) is allowed
to manage the device through the Web browser interface.

For more information about the privilege level, see the Command Line Interface. The configured user name is entered as a login name for remote management sessions. To configure user name and privilege level, enter the command at the system prompt as shown in the configuration example: Console> enable Console# configure Console(config)# username admin password lee privilege 15

SNMP Community Strings


Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) provides a method for managing network devices. Devices supporting SNMP run a local software (agent). The SNMP agents maintain a list of variables, used to manage the device. The variables are defined in the Management Information Base (MIB). The MIB presents the variables controlled by the agent. The SNMP agent defines the MIB specification format, as well as the format used to access the information over the network. Access rights to the SNMP agents are controlled by access strings and SNMP community strings. The device is SNMP-compliant and contains an SNMP agent that supports a set of standard and private MIB variables. Developers of management stations require the

19

Initial Configuration
exact structure of the MIB tree and receive the complete private MIBs information before being able to manage the MIBs. All parameters are manageable from any SNMP management platform, except the SNMP management station IP address and community (community name and access rights). The SNMP management access to the switch is disabled if no community strings exist. Note: The device switch is delivered with no community strings configured. The following screen displays the default device configuration:
Console#

show snmp
Community-Access ---------------IP address ----------

4-531

Community-String ---------------System Contact: System Location:

The community-string, community-access, and IP address can be configured through the local terminal during the initial configuration procedure. The SNMP configuration options for the Community String are as follows: Access rights options: ro (read only), rw (read-and-write) or su (super). An option to configure IP address or not: If an IP address is not configured, it means that all community members having the same community name are granted the same access rights. Common practice is to use two community strings for the switch one (public community) with read-only access and the other (private community) with read-write access. The public string allows authorized management stations to retrieve MIB objects, while the private string allows authorized management stations to retrieve and modify MIB objects. During initial configuration, it is recommended to configure the device according to the network administrator requirements, in accordance with using an SNMP-based management station. To configure SNMP station IP address and community string(s) perform the following: 1. 2. 3. At the console prompt, enter the command Enable. The prompt is displayed as #. Enter the command configure and press <Enter>. In the configuration mode, enter the SNMP configuration command with the parameters including community name (private), community access right (read and write) and IP address, as shown in the following example:

20

Advanced Configuration

Console# configure Config(config)# snmp-server router Config(config)# exit Console(config)# show snmp Community-String ----------------

community private rw 11.1.1.2 type


4-519 4-656 4-531 IP address ----------

Community-Access ----------------

private readWrite 11.1.1.2 Traps are enabled. Authentication-failure trap is enabled. Trap-Rec-Address ---------------System Contact: System Location: Trap-Rec-Community -----------------Version -------

This completes the initial configuration of the device from a local terminal. The configured parameters enable further device configuration from any remote location.

Advanced Configuration
This section provides information about dynamic allocation of IP addresses and security management based on the authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) mechanism, and includes the following topics: Configuring IP Addresses through DHCP Configuring IP Addresses through BOOTP Security Management and Password Configuration When configuring/receiving IP addresses through DHCP and BOOTP, the configuration received from these servers includes the IP address, and may include subnet mask and default gateway.

Retrieving an IP Address From a DHCP Server


When using the DHCP protocol to retrieve an IP address, the device acts as a DHCP client. To retrieve an IP address from a DHCP server, perform the following steps: 1. 2. Select and connect any port to a DHCP server or to a subnet that has a DHCP server on it, in order to retrieve the IP address. Enter the following commands to use the selected port for receiving the IP address. In the following example, the commands are based on the port type used for configuration.

21

Initial Configuration
Assigning Dynamic IP Addresses:
console# configure console(config)# interface ethernet e1 console(config-if)# ip address dhcp hostname sales console(config-if)# exit console(config)#

4-376 4-419 4-656

The interface receives the IP address automatically. 3. To verify the IP address, enter the show ip interface command at the system prompt as shown in the following example.
Console#

show ip interface

Gateway IP Address -------10.7.1.1

Type

Activity status

-----Static

--------------Active

IP address ------------10.7.1.192/24

Interface --------VLAN 1

Type ------Static

Directed Broadcast --------

Notes: 1. The device configuration does not have to be deleted to retrieve an IP


address for the DHCP server.

2. When copying configuration files, avoid using a configuration file that


contains an instruction to enable DHCP on an interface that connects to the same DHCP server, or to one with an identical configuration. In this instance, the switch retrieves the new configuration file and boots from it. The device then enables DHCP as instructed in the new configuration file, and the DHCP instructs it to reload the same file again.

Receiving an IP Address From a BOOTP Server


The standard BOOTP protocol is supported and enables the switch to automatically download its IP host configuration from any standard BOOTP server in the network. In this case, the device acts as a BOOTP client. To retrieve an IP address from a BOOTP server: 1. 2. Select and connect any port to a BOOTP server or subnet containing such a server, to retrieve the IP address. At the system prompt, enter the delete startup configuration command to delete the startup configuration from flash. The device reboots with no configuration

22

Security Management and Password Configuration

and in 60 seconds starts sending BOOTP requests. The device receives the IP address automatically. Note: When the device reboot begins, any input at the ASCII terminal or keyboard
automatically cancels the BOOTP process before completion and the device does not receive an IP address from the BOOTP server.

The following example illustrates the process:


Console> enable 4-368 4-368 Console# delete startup-config Startup file was deleted Console# reload 4-612 You havent saved your changes. Are you sure you want to continue (y/ n)[n]? This command will reset the whole system and disconnect your current session.Do you want to continue (y/n)[n]? ****************************************************** /*the device reboots */

To verify the IP address, enter the show ip interface command. The device is now configured with an IP address.

Security Management and Password Configuration


System security is handled through the AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) mechanism that manages user access rights, privileges, and management methods. AAA uses both local and remote user databases. Data encryption is handled through the SSH mechanism. The system is delivered with no default password configured; all passwords are user-defined. If a user-defined password is lost, a password recovery procedure can be invoked from the Startup menu. The procedure is applicable for the local terminal only and allows a one-time access to the device from the local terminal with no password entered.

Configuring Security Passwords Introduction


The security passwords can be configured for the following services: Console Telnet SSH HTTP HTTPS Passwords are user-defined. When creating a user name, the default priority is "1," which allows access but not configuration rights. A priority of "15" must be set to enable access and configuration rights to the device. Although user names can be assigned privilege level 15 without

23

Initial Configuration
a password, it is recommended to always assign a password. If there is no specified password, privileged users can access the Web interface with any password.

Managing Stacking
Stacking provides multiple switch management through a single point as if all stack members are a single unit. All stack members are accessed through a single IP address through which the stack is managed. The stack is managed from the following: Web-based interface SNMP Management Station Command Line Interface (CLI) Devices support stacking up to six units per stack, or can operate as stand-alone units. During the Stacking setup, one switch is selected as the Stacking Master and another stacking member can be selected as the Secondary Master. All other devices are selected as stack members, and assigned a unique Unit ID.

37

Configuring the Switch

Switch software is downloaded separately for each stack members. However, all units in the stack must be running the same software version. Switch stacking and configuration is maintained by the Stacking Master. The Stacking Master detects and configures the ports with minimal operational impact in the event of: Unit Failure Inter-unit Stacking Link Failure Unit Insertion Removal of a Stacking Unit This section provides an introduction to the user interface, and includes the following topics: Understanding the Stack Topology Stacking Failover Topology Stacking Members and Unit ID Removing and Replacing Stacking Members Exchanging Stacking Members Switching between the Stacking Master and the Secondary Master

Understanding the Stack Topology


The devices operate in a Ring topology. A stacked Ring topology is where all devices in the stack are connected to each other forming a circle. Each device in the stack accepts data and sends it to the device to which it is attached. The packet continues through the stack until it reaches its destination. The system discovers the optimal path on which to send traffic. Most difficulties incurred in Ring topologies occur when a device in the ring becomes non-functional, or a link is severed. In a stack, the system automatically switches to a Stacking Failover topology without any system downtime. An SNMP message is automatically generated, but no stack management action is required. However, the stacking link or stacking member must be repaired to ensure the stacking integrity. After the stacking issues are resolved, the device can be reconnected to the stack without interruption, and the Ring topology is restored.

Stacking Failover Topology


If a failure occurs in the stacking topology, the stack reverts to Stacking Failover Topology. In the Stacking Failover topology, devices operate in a chain formation. The Stacking Master determines where the packets are sent. Each unit is connected to two neighboring devices, except for the top and bottom units.

Stacking Members and Unit ID


Stacking Unit IDs are essential to the stacking configuration. The stacking operation is determined during the boot process. The operation mode is determined by the Unit ID selected during the initialization process. Stacking LEDs are dual mode

38

Managing Stacking

LEDS. During bootup, the Stacking LEDs indicate the stacking Unit number. When the device is running, the stack ID selector displays the unit ID number. Pressing a second time displays the port speed. For example, if the user selected stand-alone mode, the device boots in the boot-up process as a stand-alone device. The device units are shipped with a default Unit ID of the stand-alone unit. If the device is operating as a stand-alone unit, all stacking LEDs are off. Once the user selects a different Unit ID, it is not erased, and remains valid, even if the unit is reset. Unit ID 1 and Unit ID 2 are reserved for Master enabled units. Unit IDs 3 to 8 can be defined for stack members. When the Master unit boots or when inserting or removing a stack member, the Master unit initiates a stacking discovering process. Note: If two members are discovered with the same Unit ID the stack continues to
function, however only the unit with the older join time joins the stack. A message is sent to the user, notifying that a unit failed to join the stack.

Removing and Replacing Stacking Members


Stacking member 1 and Stacking member 2 are Stacking Master enabled units. Unit 1 and Unit 2 are either designated as Master Unit or Secondary Master Unit. The Stacking Master assignment is performed during the configuration process. One Master enabled stack member is elected Master, and the other Master enabled stack member is elected Secondary Master, according to the following decision process: If only one Stacking Master enabled unit is present, it is elected Stacking Master. If two Stacking Masters enabled stacking members are present, and one has been manually configured as the Stacking Master, the manually configured member is elected Stacking Master. If two Master enabled units are present and neither has been manually configured as the Stacking Master, the one with the longer up-time is elected Stacking Master. If the two Master enabled stacking members are the same age, Unit 1 is elected Stacking Master. Two stacking member are considered the same age if they were inserted within the same ten minute interval. For example, Stack member 2 is inserted in the first minute of a ten-minute cycle, and Stack member 1 is inserted in fifth minute of the same cycle, the units are considered the same age. If there are two Master enabled units that are the same age, then Unit 1 is elected Stacking Master. The Stacking Master and the Secondary Master maintain a Warm Standby. The Warm Standby ensures that the Secondary Master takes over for the Stacking Master if a failover occurs. This guarantees that the stack continues to operate normally. During the Warm Standby, the Master and the Secondary Master are synchronized with the static configuration only. When the Stacking Master is configured, the

39

Configuring the Switch

Stacking Master must synchronize the Stacking Secondary Master. The Dynamic configuration is not saved, for example, dynamically learned MAC addresses are not saved. Each port in the stack has a specific Unit ID, port type, and port number, which is part of both the configuration commands and the configuration files. Configuration files are managed only from the device Stacking Master, including: Saving to the FLASH Uploading Configuration files to an external TFTP Server Downloading Configuration files from an external TFTP Server Whenever a reboot occurs, topology discovery is performed, and the master learns all units in the stack. Unit IDs are saved in the unit and are learned through topology discovery. If a unit attempts to boot without a selected Master, and the unit is not operating in stand-alone mode, the unit does not boot. Configuration files are changed only through explicit user configuration. Configuration files are not automatically modified when: Units are Added Units are Removed Units are reassigned Unit IDs Units toggle between Stacking Mode and Stand-alone Mode Each time the system reboots, the Startup Configuration file in the Master unit is used to configure the stack. If a stack member is removed from the stack, and then replaced with a unit with the same Unit ID, the stack member is configured with the original device configuration. Only ports which are physically present are displayed in the home page, and can be configured through the WebViewMgmt system. Non-present ports are configured through the CLI or SNMP interfaces.

Exchanging Stacking Members


If a stack member with the same Unit ID replaces an existing Unit ID with the same Unit ID, the previous device configuration is applied to the inserted stack member. If the new inserted device has either more than or less ports than the previous device, the relevant port configuration is applied to the new stack member.

Switching between the Stacking Master and the Secondary Master


The Secondary Master replaces the Stacking Master if the following events occur: The Stacking Master fails or is removed from the stack. Links from the Stacking Master to the stacking members fails. A soft switchover is performed with either via web interface or the CLI. Switching between the Stacking Master and the Secondary Master results in a limited service loss. Any dynamic tables are relearned if a failure occurs. The running configuration file is synchronized between Stacking Master and the Secondary Master, and continues running on the Secondary Master.

Configuring SNTP

Configuring SNTP
Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) allows the switch to set its internal clock based on periodic updates from a time server (SNTP or NTP). Maintaining an accurate time on the switch enables the system log to record meaningful dates and times for event entries. You can also manually set the clock using the CLI. If the clock is not set, the switch will only record the time from the factory default set at the last bootup. Note: The system time is not saved in NVRAM. The device can poll the following server types for the server time: Unicast Anycast Broadcast Time sources are established by stratums. Stratums define the accuracy of the reference clock. The higher the stratum (where zero is the highest), the more accurate the clock is. The device receives time from stratum 1 and above. The following is an example of stratums: Stratum 0 A real time clock (such as a GPS system) is used as the time source. Stratum 1 A server that is directly linked to a Stratum 0 time source is used. Stratum 1 time servers provide primary network time standards. Stratum 2 The time source is distanced from the Stratum 1 server over a network path. For example, a Stratum 2 server receives the time over a network link, via NTP, from a Stratum 1 server. Information received from SNTP servers is evaluated based on the Time level and server type. SNTP time definitions are assessed and determined by the following time levels: T1 The time at which the original request was sent by the client. T2 The time at which the original request was received by the server. T3 The time at which the server sent the client a reply. T4 The time at which the client received the server's reply.

Polling for Unicast Time Information


Polling for Unicast information is used for polling a server for which the IP address is known. T1 - T4 are used to determine the server time. This is the preferred method for synchronizing device time.

Polling for Anycast Time Information


Polling for Anycast information is used when the server IP address is unknown. The first Anycast server to return a response is used to set the time value. Time levels T3 and T4 are used to determine the server time. Using Anycast time information for synchronizing device time is preferred to using Broadcast time information.

51

Configuring the Switch

Polling For Broadcast Time Information


Broadcast information is used when the server IP address is unknown. When a broadcast message is sent from an SNTP server, the SNTP client listens for the response. The SNTP client neither sends time information requests nor receives responses from the Broadcast server. Message Digest 5 (MD5) Authentication safeguards device synchronization paths to SNTP servers. MD5 is an algorithm that produces a 128-bit hash. MD5 is a variation of MD4, and increases MD4 security. MD5 verifies the integrity of the communication, authenticates the origin of the communication.

The SNTP Configuration Page provides information for defining SNTP parameters globally. Command Attributes Poll Interval Defines the interval (in seconds) at which the SNTP server is polled for Unicast information. The Poll Interval default is 1024 seconds. Enable Receive Broadcast Servers Updates Defines whether or not the device monitors the SNTP servers for the interfaces Broadcast server time information. The possible values are: Checked Enables the device to receive Broadcast server updates. Unchecked Disables the device from receiving Broadcast server updates. Enable Receive Anycast Servers Updates Defines whether or not the device polls the SNTP server for Anycast server time information. If both the Enable Receive Anycast Servers Update and the Enable Receive Broadcast Servers Update fields are enabled, the system time is set according the Anycast server time information. The possible values are: Checked Enables the device to receive Anycast server updates. Unchecked Disables the device from receiving Anycast server updates. Enable Receive Unicast Servers Updates Defines whether or not the device polls the SNTP server for Unicast server time information. If the Enable Receive Broadcast Servers Updates, Enable Receive Anycast Servers Updates, and Enable Receive Unicast Servers Updates fields are all enabled, the system time is set according the Unicast server time information. The possible values are: Checked Enables the device to receive Unicast server updates. Unchecked Disables the device from receiving Unicast server updates.

You can upload/download firmware to or from a TFTP server. By saving runtime code to a file on a TFTP server, that file can later be downloaded to the switch to restore operation. You can set the switch to use new firmware without overwriting the previous version. The system run-time software and configuration information is kept in files which may be saved, copied, uploaded for host-based storage and manipulation. The system files include: Boot Files The system uses two identical copies of the boot image, stored in flash. The first copy is used when the system comes up. Software Image Files two images are stored. The device boots from one, and the other is used as a redundant backup.

61

Configuring the Switch

Startup Configuration File Contains the commands required to reconfigure the device to the same settings as when the device is powered down or rebooted. The Startup file is created by copying the configuration commands from the Running Configuration file or the Backup Configuration file. Running Configuration File Contains all configuration file commands, as well as all commands entered during the current session. After the device is powered down or rebooted, all commands stored in the Running Configuration file are lost. During the startup process, all commands in the Startup file are copied to the Running Configuration File and applied to the device. During the session, all new commands entered are added to the commands existing in the Running Configuration file. Commands are not overwritten. To update the Startup file, before powering down the device, the Running Configuration file must be copied to the Startup Configuration file. The next time the device is restarted, the commands are copied back into the Running Configuration file from the Startup Configuration file. Image files Software upgrades are used when a new version file is downloaded. The file is checked for the right format, and that it is complete. After a successful download, the new version is marked, and is used after the device is reset.

TCAM Resources
The TCAM Resources Page display the availability of TCAM resources (Ternary Content Addressable Memory) across the stack. TCAM is used for high-speed searching throughout the stack, in order to perform security, QoS, and other types of applications. In contrast with binary CAM, TCAM allows a third matching state of X or Dont Care bits in data searches ( the first two bit types are 0 and 1), adding more flexibility to searches. However, the need to encode three possible states instead of two also adds greater resource costs. The maximum number of rules that may be allocated by all applications on the device is 1024. The following table lists all applications that can allocate TCAM rules. Each allocation has its specific allocation policy.

Port Status Indicates whether the port is currently operational or non-operational. The possible field values are: Up Indicates the port is currently operating. Down Indicates the port is currently not operating. Port Speed Displays the configured rate for the port. The port type determines what speed setting options are available. Port speeds can only be configured when auto negotiation is disabled. The possible field values are: 10M Indicates the port is currently operating at 10 Mbps. 100M Indicates the port is currently operating at 100 Mbps. 1000M Indicates the port is currently operating at 1000 Mbps. Duplex Mode Displays the port duplex mode. This field is configurable only when auto negotiation is disabled, and the port speed is set to 10M or 100M. This field cannot be configured on LAGs. The possible field values are: Full The interface supports transmission between the device and its link partner in both directions simultaneously. Half The interface supports transmission between the device and the client in only one direction at a time. Auto Negotiation Displays the auto negotiation status on the port. Auto negotiation is a protocol between two link partners that enables a port to advertise its transmission rate, duplex mode, and flow control abilities to its partner. Advertisement Defines the auto negotiation setting the port advertises. The possible field values are: Max Capability Indicates that all port speeds and duplex mode settings are accepted. 10 Half Indicates that the port advertises for a 10 Mbps speed port and half duplex mode setting. 10 Full Indicates that the port advertises for a 10 Mbps speed port and full duplex mode setting. 100 Half Indicates that the port advertises for a 100 Mbps speed port and half duplex mode setting. 100 Full Indicates that the port advertises for a 100 Mbps speed port and full duplex mode setting. 1000 Full Indicates that the port advertises for a 1000 Mbps speed port and full duplex mode setting Back Pressure Displays the back pressure mode on the Port. Back pressure mode is used with half duplex mode to disable ports from receiving messages. Flow Control Displays the flow control status on the port. Operates when the port is in full duplex mode. MDI/MDIX Displays the MDI/MDIX status on the port. Hubs and switches are deliberately wired opposite the way end stations are wired, so that when a hub or switch is connected to an end station, a straight through Ethernet cable can be used, and the pairs are matched up properly. When two hubs or switches are connected to each other, or two end stations are connected to each other, a

crossover cable is used to ensure that the correct pairs are connected. The possible field values are: Auto Use to automatically detect the cable type. MDI (Media Dependent Interface) Use for end stations. MDIX (Media Dependent Interface with Crossover) Use for hubs and switches. LAG Indicates the LAG of which the port is a member. PVE Enables a port to be a Private VLAN Edge (PVE) port. When a port is defined as PVE, it bypasses the Forwarding Database (FDB), and forwards all Unicast, Multicast and Broadcast traffic to an uplink (except MAC-to-me packets). Uplinks can be a port or GE port. Traffic from the uplink is distributed to all interfaces. Only one uplink can be defined for a protected port. Private VLANs cannot be configured on ports on which IGMP snooping or Multicast TV VLAN has been configured. An IP address cannot be configured on the VLAN of which a protected port is a member. Only one uplink can be defined for a protected port. Private VLANs cannot be configured on ports on which IGMP snooping or Multicast TV VLAN has been configured.

Creating Trunks (LAGs)


Link Aggregation optimizes port usage by linking a group of ports together to form a single LAG (aggregated group). Aggregating ports multiplies the bandwidth between the devices, increases port flexibility, and provides link redundancy. The device supports up to eight ports per LAG, and eight LAGs per system. The device supports both static LAGs and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) LAGs. LACP LAGs negotiate aggregating ports links with other LACP ports located on a different device. If the other device ports are also LACP ports, the devices establish a LAG between them. Consider the following when aggregating ports: All ports within a LAG must be the same media type. A VLAN is not configured on the port. The port is not assigned to a different LAG. Auto-negotiation mode is not configured on the port. The port is in full-duplex mode. All ports in the LAG have the same ingress filtering and tagged modes. All ports in the LAG have the same back pressure and flow control modes. All ports in the LAG have the same priority. All ports in the LAG have the same transceiver type. The device supports up to eight LAGs, and eight ports in each LAG. Ports can be configured as LACP ports only if the ports are not part of a previously configured LAG. Ports added to a LAG lose their individual port configuration. When ports are removed from the LAG, the original port configuration is applied to the ports. The device uses a hash function to determine which packets are carried on which aggregated-link member. The hash function statistically load-balances the aggregated link members. The device considers an Aggregated Link as a single logical port. Note: To avoid creating a loop in the network, be sure you add a static trunk via the configuration interface before connecting the ports, and also disconnect the ports before removing a static trunk via the configuration interface.

Configuring LACP
Aggregate ports can be linked into link-aggregation port-groups. Each group is comprised of ports with the same speed, set to full-duplex operations. LAG ports can contain different media types if the ports are operating at the same speed. Aggregated links can be set up manually or automatically established by enabling Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) on the relevant links. Aggregate ports can be linked into link-aggregation port-groups. Each group is comprised of

73

Configuring the Switch

ports with the same speed. Ports assigned to a common port channel must meet the following criteria: Ports must have the same LACP System Priority. Notes: 1. If the port channel admin key is not set (through the CLI) when a channel
group is formed (i.e., it has a null value of 0), this key is set to the same value as the port admin key used by the interfaces that joined the group (lacp admin key).

2. To avoid creating a loop in the network, be sure you enable LACP before
connecting the ports, and also disconnect the ports before disabling LACP.

3. If the target switch has also enabled LACP on the connected ports, the trunk
will be activated automatically.

4. A trunk formed with another switch using LACP will automatically be


assigned the next available trunk ID.

5. All ports on both ends of an LACP trunk must be configured for full duplex,
either by forced mode or auto-negotiation.

The Interface LACP Configuration Page contains parameters for defining the LACP ports. Command Attributes LACP System Priority Determines the link aggregation group (LAG) membership, and to identify this device to other switches during LAG negotiations. Ports must be configured with the same system priority to join the same LAG. System priority is combined with the switchs MAC address to form the LAG identifier. This identifier is used to indicate a specific LAG during LACP negotiations with other systems. The field range is 1 - 65535, and the default is 1. Unit No. Displays the stacking member for which the LACP parameters are displayed Port Displays the port number to which timeout and priority values are assigned.

You can display standard statistics on network traffic from the Interfaces Group and Ethernet-like MIBs, as well as a detailed breakdown of traffic based on the RMON MIB. Interfaces and Ethernet-like statistics display errors on the traffic passing through each port. This information can be used to identify potential problems with the switch (such as a faulty port or unusually heavy loading). RMON statistics provide access to a broad range of statistics, including a total count of different frame types and sizes passing through each port. All values displayed have been accumulated since the last system reboot, and are shown as counts per second.

Configuring the Switch

Configuring IP Information
This section describes how to configure an initial IP interface for management access over the network. The IP address for this switch is unassigned by default. To manually configure an address, you need to change the switch IP address and netmask to values that are compatible with your network. You may also need to establish a default gateway between the switch and management stations that exist on another network segment. You can manually configure a specific IP address, or direct the device to obtain an address from a DHCP server. Valid IP addresses consist of four decimal numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods. The system supports up-to 5 IP addresses per device. Anything outside this format will not be accepted by the CLI program.

Defining IP Addresses
The IP Interface Page contains fields for assigning IP parameters to interfaces, and for assigning gateway devices. Packets are forwarded to the default IP when frames are sent to a remote network. The configured IP address must belong to the same IP address subnet of one of the IP interfaces. Command Attributes IP Address Displays the currently configured IP address. Mask Displays the currently configured IP address mask. Interface Displays the interface used to manage the device. Remove Removes the selected IP address from the interface. The possible field values are: Checked Removes the IP address from the interface. Unchecked Maintains the IP address assigned to the Interface.

Web Click System, IP Addressing, IP Addressing, IP Interface, define the fields, and specify a Primary interface, click Apply.

Configuring DHCP
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) assigns dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. DHCP ensures that network devices can have a different IP address every time the device connects to the network. DHCP may lease addresses to clients indefinitely or for a specific period of time. If the address expires or the switch is moved to another network segment, you will lose management access to the switch. If DHCP is enabled, the IP will not function until a reply has been received from the server. Requests will be broadcast periodically by the switch for an IP address. If your network provides DHCP services, you can configure the switch to be dynamically configured by these services. The DHCP Page contains parameters for assigning IP addresses to devices. Command Attributes Unit No. Displays the stacking member for which the DHCP is assigned. Interface Displays the DHCP interface address which is connected to the device. Host Name Displays the system name.

Configuring Domain Name Service


CLI The following is an example of the ARP CLI commands:
Console(config)# 4-422

Configuring Domain Name Service


Domain Name System (DNS) converts user-defined domain names into IP addresses. Each time a domain name is assigned, the DNS service translates the name into a numeric IP address. For example, www.ipexample.com is translated into 192.87.56.2. DNS servers maintain databases of domain names and their corresponding IP addresses. When a client device designates this switch as a DNS server, the client will attempt to resolve host names into IP addresses by forwarding DNS queries to the switch, and waiting for a response. You can manually configure entries in the DNS table used for mapping domain names to IP addresses, configure default domain names, or specify one or more name servers to use for domain name to address translation. When configuring the DNS parameters: Enable DNS service on this switch, first configure one or more name servers, and then enable domain lookup status. To append domain names to incomplete host names received from a DNS client (i.e., not formatted with dotted notation), you can specify a default domain name or a list of domain names to be tried in sequential order. If there is no domain list, the default domain name is used. If there is a domain list, the default domain name is not used. When an incomplete host name is received by the DNS server on this switch and a domain name list has been specified, the switch works through the domain list, appending each domain name in the list to the host name, and checking with the specified name servers for a match. When more than one name server is specified, the servers are queried in the specified sequence until a response is received, or the end of the list is reached with no response. Note that if all name servers are deleted, DNS will automatically be disabled.

Configuring Static DNS Host to Address Entries


You can manually configure static entries in the DNS table that are used to map domain names to IP addresses. Static entries may be used for local devices connected directly to the attached network, or for commonly used resources located elsewhere on the network. Servers or other network devices may support one or more connections via multiple IP addresses. If more than one IP address is associated with a host name in the static table or via information returned from a name server, a DNS client can try each address in succession, until it establishes a connection with the target device. The DNS Host Mapping Page contains parameters for defining static entries in the DNS table. Command Attributes Host Names Displays a user-defined default domain name. When defined, the default domain name is applied to all unqualified host names. The Host Name field can contain up to 158 characters. IP Address Displays the DNS host IP address.

Configuring SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a communication protocol designed specifically for managing devices on a network. Equipment commonly managed with SNMP includes switches, routers and host computers. SNMP is typically used to configure these devices for proper operation in a network environment, as well as to monitor them to evaluate performance or detect potential problems. Managed devices supporting SNMP contain software, which runs locally on the device and is referred to as an agent. A defined set of variables, known as managed objects, is maintained by the SNMP agent and used to manage the device. These objects are defined in a Management Information Base (MIB) that provides a standard presentation of the information controlled by the agent. SNMP defines both the format of the MIB specifications and the protocol used to access this information over the network. The switch includes an onboard agent that supports SNMP versions 1, 2c, and 3. This agent continuously monitors the status of the switch hardware, as well as the traffic passing through its ports. A network management station can access this information using software such as HP OpenView. Access to the onboard agent using SNMP v1 and v2c is controlled by community strings. To communicate with the switch, the management station must first submit a valid community string for authentication. Access to the switch using SNMPv3 provides additional security features that cover message integrity, authentication, and encryption; as well as controlling user access to specific areas of the MIB tree. The SNMPv3 security structure consists of security models, with each model having its own security levels. There are three security models defined, SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3. Users are assigned to groups that are defined by a security model and specified security levels. Each group also has a defined security access to set of MIB objects for reading and writing, which are known as views. The switch has a default view (all MIB objects) and default groups defined for security models v1 and v2c. The following table shows the security models and levels available and the system default settings.

Enabling SNMP
The Engine ID Page permits the enabling of both SNMP and Authentication notifications. An SNMPv3 engine is an independent SNMP agent that resides on the switch. This engine protects against message replay, delay, and redirection. The engine ID is also used in combination with user passwords to generate the security keys for authenticating and encrypting SNMPv3 packets. A local engine ID is automatically generated that is unique to the switch. This is referred to as the default engine ID. If the local engine ID is deleted or changed, all SNMP users will be cleared. You will need to reconfigure all existing users. A new engine ID can be specified by entering 1 to 26 hexadecimal characters. If less than 26 characters are specified, trailing zeroes are added to the value. For example, the value 1234 is equivalent to 1234 followed by 22 zeroes. SNMP is enabled by default. Command Attributes Local Engine ID (10-64 Hex Characters) Displays the local device Engine ID. The field value is a hexadecimal string. Each byte in hexadecimal character strings is two hexadecimal digits. Each byte can be separated by a period or a colon. The Engine ID must be defined before SNMPv3 is enabled. Select a default Engine ID that is comprised of an Enterprise number and the default MAC address. Use Default Uses the device-generated Engine ID. The default Engine ID is based on the device MAC address and is defined per standard as: First 4 octets First bit = 1, the rest is IANA Enterprise number. Fifth octet Set to 3 to indicate the MAC address that follows.

Defining Access Profiles


Access profiles are profiles and rules for accessing the device. Access to management functions can be limited to user groups. User groups are defined for interfaces according to IP addresses or IP subnets. Access profiles contain management methods for accessing and managing the device. The device

104

Configuring Authentication Methods

management methods include: All Telnet Secure Telnet (SSH) HTTP Management access to different management methods may differ between user groups. For example, User Group 1 can access the switch module only via an HTTPS session, while User Group 2 can access the switch module via both HTTPS and Telnet sessions. The Access Profiles Page contains the currently configured access profiles and their activity status. Assigning an access profile to an interface denies access via other interfaces. If an access profile is assigned to any interface, the device can be accessed by all interfaces. Use the Authentication Settings menu to restrict management access based on specified user names and passwords. You can manually configure access rights on the switch, or you can use a remote access authentication server based on RADIUS or TACACS+ protocols. Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) and Terminal Access Controller Access Control System Plus (TACACS+) are logon authentication protocols that use software running on a central server to control access to RADIUS-aware or TACACS- aware devices on the network. An authentication server contains a database of multiple user name/password pairs with associated privilege levels for each user that requires management access to the switch. For example, if you select (1) RADIUS, (2) TACACS+ and (3) Local, the user name and password on the RADIUS server is verified first. If the RADIUS server is not available, then authentication is attempted using the TACACS+ server, and finally the local user name and password is checked. Ensure the following when configuring Authentication Profiles: By default, management access is always checked against the authentication database stored on the local switch. If a remote authentication server is used, you must specify the authentication sequence and the corresponding parameters for the remote authentication protocol. Local and remote logon authentication control management access via the console port, web browser, or Telnet. RADIUS and TACACS+ logon authentication assign a specific privilege level for each user name/password pair. The user name, password, and privilege level must be configured on the authentication server. Command Attributes Access Profile Name Defines the access profile name. The access profile name can contain up to 32 characters. Current Active Access Profile Defines the access profile currently active. Remove Removes the selected access profile. The possible field values are: Checked Removes the selected access profile.

Alcatel Mapping Adjacency Protocol (AMAP)


The AMAP protocol enables a switch to discover the topology of other AMAP-aware devices in the network. The protocol allows each switch to determine if other AMAP-aware switches are adjacent to it. Note that two switches are adjacent if and only if the following two requirements are satisfied: There exists a Spanning Tree path between them. There exists no other AMAP-aware device between the two switches on that Spanning Tree path.

Configuring AMAP
The AMAP protocol discovers adjacent switches by sending and receiving AMAP Hello packets on active Spanning Tree ports. Each port can be defined as being in one of three logical states of processing the AMAP Hello Packets: discovery, common, or passive. Note: AMAP packets are registered only on a default VLAN. Use the AMAP Settings Page to enable/disable AMAP and configure timeout

128

Alcatel Mapping Adjacency Protocol (AMAP)

parameters. The following parameters describe the three main AMAP port states: Discovery The initial state where a port transmits a Hello packet to detect an adjacent switch and then waits for a response. Common The port has detected an adjacent switch and periodically sends Hello packets to determine that it is still present. Passive A port enters this state if there is no response to a Discovery hello packet. This is a receive-only state and no Hello packets are transmitted.

Managing Power-over-Ethernet Devices

Managing Power-over-Ethernet Devices


Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) provides power to devices over existing LAN cabling, without updating or modifying the network infrastructure. Power-over-Ethernet removes the necessity of placing network devices next to power sources. Power-over-Ethernet can be used in the following applications: IP Phones Wireless Access Points IP Gateways PDAs Audio and video remote monitoring Powered Devices are devices which receive power from the device power supplies, for example IP phones. Powered Devices are connected to the device via Ethernet ports. Guard Band protects the device from exceeding the maximum power level. For example, if 400W is maximum power level, and the Guard Band is 20W, if the total system power consumption exceeds 380W no additional PoE components can be added. The accumulated PoE components power consumption is rounded down for display purposes, therefore remove value after decimal point. Note: Due do hardware limitations, the power measurement accuracy is 4%.

Configuring Traffic Control


This section contains information for managing both port security and storm control, and includes the following topics: Enabling Storm Control Configuring Port Security

Enabling Storm Control


Storm control limits the amount of Multicast and Broadcast frames accepted and forwarded by the device. When Layer 2 frames are forwarded, Broadcast and Multicast frames are flooded to all ports on the relevant VLAN. This occupies bandwidth, and loads all nodes on all ports. Broadcast storms may occur when a device on your network is malfunctioning, or if application programs are not well designed or properly configured. If there is too much broadcast traffic on your network, performance can be severely degraded or everything can come to complete halt. You can protect your network from broadcast storms by setting a threshold for broadcast traffic for each port. Any broadcast packets exceeding the specified threshold will then be dropped. The Storm Control Page provides fields for configuring broadcast storm control. Command Attributes Unit No. Indicates the stacking member for which the Storm Control information is displayed. Copy From Entry Number Copies Storm Control information from the selected port. To Row Number(s) Copies Storm Control information to the selected ports. Port Indicates the port from which storm control is enabled or disabled. Enable Broadcast Control Indicates if Broadcast packet types may be forwarded on the interface. The possible values are: Enabled Broadcast Control is enabled on the port. Disabled Broadcast Control is not enabled on the port.

149

Configuring Traffic Control

Configuring Port Security


Network security can be increased by limiting access on a specific port only to users with specific MAC addresses. The MAC addresses can be dynamically learned or statically configured. Locked port security monitors both received and learned packets that are received on specific ports. Access to the locked port is limited to users with specific MAC addresses. These addresses are either manually defined on the port, or learned on that port up to the point when it is locked. When a packet is received on a locked port, and the packet source MAC address is not tied to that port (either it was learned on a different port, or it is unknown to the system), the protection mechanism is invoked, and can provide various options. Unauthorized packets arriving at a locked port are either: Forwarded Discarded with no trap Discarded with a trap The port is shut down Port security allows you to configure a switch port with one or more device MAC addresses that are authorized to access the network through that port. When port security by MAC address is enabled on a port, the switch stops learning new MAC addresses on the specified port when it has reached a configured maximum number. Only incoming traffic with source addresses already stored in the dynamic or static address table will be accepted as authorized to access the network through that port. If a device with an unauthorized MAC address attempts to use the switch port, the intrusion will be detected and the switch can automatically take action by disabling the port and sending a trap message. To use port security by MAC address, specify a maximum number of addresses to allow on the port and then let the switch dynamically learn the source MAC address, VLAN pair for frames received on the port. Note that you can also manually add secure addresses to the port using the Static Address Table. When the port has reached the maximum number of MAC addresses the selected port will stop learning. The MAC addresses already in the address table will be retained and will not age out. Any other device that attempts to use the port will be prevented from accessing the switch. Disabled ports are activated from the Port Security Page. Ensure the following when configuring port security: A secure port has the following restrictions: - Cannot use port monitoring. - It cannot be used as a member of a static or dynamic trunk. - It should not be connected to a network interconnection device. Configure a maximum address count for the port to allow access. The device supports the range of 1-128 MAC addresses on a locked port. Command Attributes Unit No. Indicates the stacking member for which the port security information is displayed.

Interface Indicates the port or LAG number. Interface Status Indicates if the interface is locked or unlocked. Learning Mode Defines the locked interface mode. The Learning Mode field is enabled only if Locked is selected in the Set Port field. The possible field values are: Classic Lock Locks the port using the classic lock mechanism. The port is immediately locked, regardless of the number of addresses that have already been learned. Limited Dynamic Lock Locks the port by deleting the current dynamic MAC addresses associated with the port. The port learns up to the maximum addresses allowed on the port. Both relearning and aging MAC addresses are enabled. Max Entries Specifies the number of MAC address that can be learned on the port. The Max Entries field is enabled only if Locked is selected in the Set Port field. In addition, the Limited Dynamic Lock mode is selected. The default is 1. Action Defines the action to be applied to packets arriving on a locked port. The possible field values are: Forward Forwards packets from an unknown source without learning the MAC address. Discard Discards packets from any unlearned source. This is the default value. Shutdown Discards packets from any unlearned source and shuts down the port. The port remains shut down until reactivated, or until the device is reset. Trap Enables traps when a packet is received on a locked port. The possible field values are: Checked (True) Enables traps. Unchecked (False) Disables traps. Trap Frequency (Sec) Defines the amount of time (in seconds) between traps. The default value is 10 seconds. Web Click Security, Traffic Control, Port Security.

802.1X Port-Based Authentication


Network switches can provide open and easy access to network resources by simply attaching a client PC. Although this automatic configuration and access is a desirable feature, it also allows unauthorized personnel to easily intrude and possibly gain access to sensitive network data. The IEEE 802.1x (dot1x) standard defines a port-based access control procedure that prevents unauthorized access to a network by requiring users to first submit credentials for authentication. Access to all switch ports in a network can be centrally controlled from a server, which means that authorized users can use the same credentials for authentication from any point within the network. Port-based authentication authenticates users on a per-port basis via an external server. Only authenticated and approved system users can transmit and receive data. Ports are authenticated via the RADIUS server using the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). Port-based authentication includes: Authenticators Specifies the device port which is authenticated before permitting system access.

153

Configuring the Switch

Supplicants Specifies the host connected to the authenticated port requesting to access the system services. Authentication Server Specifies the server that performs the authentication on behalf of the authenticator, and indicates whether the supplicant is authorized to access system services. The RADIUS server verifies the client identity and sends an access challenge back to the client. The EAP packet from the RADIUS server contains not only the challenge, but the authentication method to be used. The client can reject the authentication method and request another, depending on the configuration of the client software and the RADIUS server. The RADIUS server verifies the client credentials and responds with an accept or reject packet. If authentication is successful, the switch allows the client to access the network. Otherwise, network access is denied and the port remains blocked. Port-based authentication creates two access states: Controlled Access Permits communication between the supplicant and the system, if the supplicant is authorized. Uncontrolled Access Permits uncontrolled communication regardless of the port state. The device currently supports port-based authentication via RADIUS servers.

Advanced Port-Based Authentication


Advanced port-based authentication enables multiple hosts to be attached to a single port. Advanced port-based authentication requires only one host to be authorized for all hosts to have system access. If the port is unauthorized, all attached hosts are denied access to the network. Advanced port-based authentication also enables user-based authentication. Specific VLANs in the device are always available, even if specific ports attached to the VLAN are unauthorized. For example, Voice over IP does not require authentication, while data traffic requires authentication. VLANs for which authorization is not required can be defined. Unauthenticated VLANs are available to users, even if the ports attached to the VLAN are defined as authorized. Advanced port-based authentication is implemented in the following modes: Single Host Mode Only the authorized host can access the port. Multiple Host Mode Multiple hosts can be attached to a single port. Only one host must be authorized for all hosts to access the network. If the host authentication fails, or an EAPOL-logoff message is received, all attached clients are denied access to the network. Multiple Sessions Mode - Multiple sessions mode enables number of specific hosts that has been authorized to get access to the port. Filtering is based on the source MAC address. Guest VLANs Provides limited network access to authorized ports. If a port is denied network access via port-based authorization, but the Guest VLAN is enabled, the port receives limited network access. For example, a network

administrator can use Guest VLANs to deny network access via port-based authentication, but grant Internet access to unauthorized users. Unauthenticated VLANS Are available to users, even if the ports attached to the VLAN are defined as unauthorized. When configuring port based authentication, ensure the following: The switch must have an IP address assigned. RADIUS authentication must be enabled on the switch and the IP address of the RADIUS server specified. Each switch port must be set to dot1x Auto mode. Each client that needs to be authenticated must have dot1x client software installed and properly configured. The RADIUS server and 802.1x client support EAP. (The switch only supports EAPOL in order to pass the EAP packets from the server to the client.) The RADIUS server and client also have to support the same EAP authentication type MD5. (Some clients have native support in Windows, otherwise the dot1x client must support it.)

Defining Access Control Lists

Defining Access Control Lists


Access Control Lists (ACL) provide packet filtering for IP frames and MAC addresses. Packets entering an ingress port, with an active ACL, are either admitted or denied entry and the ingress port is disabled. If they are denied entry, the user can disable the port. To filter incoming packets, first create an access list, add the required rules, specify a priority to modify the precedence in which the rules are checked, and then bind the list to a specific port. For example, an ACL rule is defined that states, port number 20 can receive TCP packets, however, if a UDP packet is received, the packet is dropped. ACLs are composed of access control entries (ACEs) that are made of the filters that determine traffic classifications. The total number of ACEs that can be defined in all ACLs together is 894.

Configuring Access Control Lists


An ACL is a sequential list of permit or deny conditions that apply to IP addresses, MAC addresses, or other more specific criteria. This switch tests ingress or egress packets against the conditions in an ACL one by one. A packet will be accepted as soon as it matches a permit rule, or dropped as soon as it matches a deny rule. If no rules match for a list of all permit rules, the packet is dropped; and if no rules match for a list of all deny rules, the packet is accepted. The following filters can be defined as ACEs: Source Port IP Address and Wildcard Mask Filters the packets by the Source port IP address and wildcard mask. Destination Port IP Address and Wildcard Mask Filters the packets by the Source port IP address and wildcard mask. ACE Priority Filters the packets by the ACE priority. Protocol Filters the packets by the IP protocol. DSCP Filters the packets by the DiffServ Code Point (DSCP) value. IP Precedence Filters the packets by the IP Precedence. Action Indicates the action assigned to the packet matching the ACL. Packets are forwarded or dropped. In addition, the port can be shut down, a trap can be sent to the network administrator, or packet is assigned rate limiting restrictions for forwarding. When configuring ACLs, ensure the following: Each ACL can have up to 256 Access Control Elements (ACE rules). The maximum number of ACLs is 894 per port. You must configure a mask for an ACL rule before you can bind it to a port or set the queue or frame priorities associated with the rule. When an ACL is bound to an interface as an egress filter, all entries in the ACL must be deny rules. Otherwise, the bind operation will fail.

167

Configuring the Switch

The switch does not support the explicit deny any rule for the egress IP ACL or the egress MAC ACLs. If these rules are included in ACL, and you attempt to bind the ACL to an interface for egress checking, the bind operation will fail. The order in which active ACLs are checked is as follows: User-defined rules in the Egress MAC ACL for egress ports. User-defined rules in the Egress IP ACL for egress ports. User-defined rules in the Ingress MAC ACL for ingress ports. User-defined rules in the Ingress IP ACL for ingress ports. Explicit default rule (permit any any) in the ingress IP ACL for ingress ports. Explicit default rule (permit any any) in the ingress MAC ACL for ingress ports. If no explicit rule is matched, the implicit default is permit all.

Binding Device Security ACLs


When an ACL is bound to an interface, all the ACE rules that have been defined are applied to the selected interface. Whenever an ACL is assigned on a port or trunk from that ingress interface that do not match the ACL are matched to the default rule, which is Drop unmatched packets. The ACL Binding Page binds ACLs to interfaces. Command Attributes Unit No. Indicates the stacking member for which the interface configuration information is displayed. Copy from Entry Number Copies the ACL information from the defined interface. To Entry Number(s) Copies the ACL information to the defined interface. Interface Indicates the interface to which the ACL is bound. ACL Name Indicates the ACL which is bound the interface. Remove Unbinds the selected ACL from the interface. The possible field values are: Checked Unbinds the ACL and interface. Unchecked Maintains the ACL and interface binding.

DHCP Snooping
DHCP Snooping expands network security by providing an extra layer of security between untrusted interfaces and DHCP servers. By enabling DHCP Snooping network administrators can identify between trusted interfaces connected to end-users or DHCP Servers, and untrusted interface located beyond the network firewall. DHCP Snooping filters untrusted messages. DHCP Snooping creates and maintains a DHCP Snooping Table which contains information received from untrusted packets. Interfaces are untrusted if the packet is received from an interface from outside the network or from a interface beyond the network firewall. Trusted interfaces receive packets only from within the network or the network firewall. The DHCP Snooping Table contains the untrusted interfaces MAC address, IP address, Lease Time, VLAN ID, and interface information. The DHCP section contains the following topics:

Dynamic ARP Inspection


Dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a TCP/IP protocol that translates IP addresses into MAC addresses. Dynamic ARP allows the following: Permits two hosts on the same network to communicate and send packets. Permits two hosts on different packets to communicate via a gateway. Permits routers to send packets via a host to a different router on the same network. Permits routers to send packets to a destination host via a local host. ARP Inspection eliminates man-in-the-middle attacks, where false ARP packets are inserted into the subnet. ARP requests and responses are inspected, and their MAC Address to IP Address binding is checked. Packets with invalid ARP Inspection Bindings are logged and dropped. Packets are classified as: Trusted Indicates that the interface IP and MAC address are recognized, and recorded in the ARP Inspection List. Trusted packets are forward without ARP Inspection. Untrusted Indicates that the packet arrived from an interface that does not have a recognized IP and MAC addresses. The packet is checked for: Source MAC Compares the packets source MAC address in the Ethernet header against the senders MAC address in the ARP request. This check is performed on both ARP requests and responses.

179

Configuring the Switch

Destination MAC Compares the packets destination MAC address in the Ethernet header against the destination interfaces MAC address. This check is performed for ARP responses. IP Addresses Compares the ARP body for invalid and unexpected IP addresses. Addresses include 0.0.0.0, 255.255.255.255, and all IP Multicast addresses. If the packets IP address was not found in the ARP Inspection List, and DHCP snooping is enabled for a VLAN, a search of the DHCP Snooping Database is performed. If the IP address is found the packet is valid, and is forwarded. ARP inspection is performed only on untrusted interfaces

IP Source Guard
IP Source Guard is a security feature that restricts the client IP traffic to those source IP addresses configured in the binding. IP traffic restrictions are applied according to definitions in both the DHCP Snooping Binding Database and in manually configured IP source bindings. For example, IP Source Guard can help prevent traffic attacks caused when a host tries to use the IP address of its neighbor. Notes: 1. IP Source Guard must be enabled globally in the IP Source Guard Properties
Page before it can be enabled on the device interfaces.

2. IP Source Guard uses Ternary Content Addressable Memory (TCAM)


resources, requiring use of 1 TCAM rule per 1 IP Source Guard address entry. If the number of IP Source Guard entries exceeds the number of available TCAM rules, new IP source guard addresses remain inactive.

Configuring the Switch

Defining the Forwarding Database


Switches store the addresses for all known devices. This information is used to pass traffic directly between the inbound and outbound ports. All the addresses learned by monitoring traffic are stored in the dynamic address table. You can also manually configure static addresses that are bound to a specific port. An address becomes associated with a port by learning the frames source address, but if a frame that is addressed to a destination MAC address is not associated with a port, that frame is flooded to all relevant VLAN ports. To prevent the bridging table from overflowing, a dynamic MAC address, from which no traffic arrives for a set period, is erased. Packets addressed to destinations stored in either the Static or Dynamic databases are immediately forwarded to the port. The Dynamic MAC Address Table can be sorted by interface, VLAN, or MAC Address, whereas MAC addresses are dynamically learned as packets from sources that arrive at the device. Static addresses are configured manually.

Defining Static Forwarding Database Entries


A static address can be assigned to a specific interface on this switch. Static addresses are bound to the assigned interface and cannot be moved. When a static address is seen on another interface, the address will be ignored and will not be written to the address table. To prevent static MAC addresses from being deleted when the device is reset, ensure that the port attached to the MAC address is locked. Command Attributes MAC Address Displays the MAC address to which the entry refers. VLAN ID Displays the VLAN ID number to which the entry refers. Interface Displays the interface to which the entry refers: Port The specific port number to which the forwarding database parameters refer. LAG The specific LAG number to which the forwarding database parameters refer. Status Displays how the entry was created. The possible field values are: Secure The MAC Address is defined for locked ports. Permanent The MAC address is permanent. Delete on Reset The MAC address is deleted when the device is reset.

The Dynamic Address Table contains the MAC addresses learned by monitoring the source address for traffic entering the switch. When the destination address for inbound traffic is found in the database, the packets intended for that address are forwarded directly to the associated port. Otherwise, the traffic is flooded to all ports. The Dynamic Addresses Page contains parameters for querying information in the Dynamic MAC Address Table, including the interface type, MAC addresses, VLAN, and table storing. The Dynamic MAC Address table contains information about the aging time before a dynamic MAC address is erased, and includes parameters for querying and viewing the Dynamic MAC Address table. The Dynamic MAC Address table contains address parameters by which packets are directly forwarded to the ports. The Dynamic Address Table can be sorted by interface, VLAN, and MAC Address.

Configuring Spanning Tree


The Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) can be used to detect and disable network loops, and to provide backup links between switches, bridges or routers. This allows the switch to interact with other bridging devices (that is, an STA-compliant switch, bridge or router) in your network to ensure that only one route exists between any two stations on the network, and provide backup links which automatically take over when a primary link goes down. The spanning tree algorithms supported by this switch include these versions: STP Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1D) RSTP Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1w) MSTP Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1s) STA uses a distributed algorithm to select a bridging device (STA-compliant switch, bridge or router) that serves as the root of the spanning tree network. It selects a root port on each bridging device (except for the root device) which incurs the lowest path cost when forwarding a packet from that device to the root device. Then it selects a designated bridging device from each LAN which incurs the lowest path cost when forwarding a packet from that LAN to the root device. All ports connected to designated bridging devices are assigned as designated ports. After determining the lowest cost spanning tree, it enables all root ports and designated ports, and disables all other ports. Network packets are therefore only forwarded between root ports and designated ports, eliminating any possible network loops. Once a stable network topology has been established, all bridges listen for Hello BPDUs (Bridge Protocol Data Units) transmitted from the Root Bridge. If a bridge does not get a Hello BPDU after a predefined interval (Maximum Age), the bridge assumes that the link to the Root Bridge is down. This bridge will then initiate negotiations with other bridges to reconfigure the network to reestablish a valid

191

Configuring the Switch

network topology. RSTP is designed as a general replacement for the slower, legacy STP. RSTP is also incorporated into MSTP. RSTP achieves must faster reconfiguration (i.e., around one tenth of the time required by STP) by reducing the number of state changes before active ports start learning, predefining an alternate route that can be used when a node or port fails, and retaining the forwarding database for ports insensitive to changes in the tree structure when reconfiguration occurs. When using STP or RSTP, it may be difficult to maintain a stable path between all VLAN members. Frequent changes in the tree structure can easily isolate some of the group members. MSTP (an extension of RSTP) is designed to support independent spanning trees based on VLAN groups. Once you specify the VLANs to include in a Multiple Spanning Tree Instance (MSTI), the protocol will automatically build an MSTI tree to maintain connectivity among each of the VLANs. MSTP maintains contact with the global network because each instance is treated as an RSTP node in the Common Spanning Tree (CST).

Defining Spanning Tree


You can display a summary of the current bridge STP information that applies to the entire switch using the STP Information screen.

Configuring Spanning Tree

configuring STP on an interface: A port on a network segment with no other STP compliant bridging device is always forwarding. If two ports of a switch are connected to the same segment and there is no other STP device attached to this segment, the port with the smaller ID forwards packets and the other is discarding. All ports are discarding when the switch is booted, then some of them change state to learning, and then to forwarding. Command Attributes Unit No. Indicates the stacking member for which the STP settings information is displayed. Query by Interface Queries the interface configuration table either by: All ports, All Lags, Active Ports or Blocked Ports. Interface The interface for which the information is displayed. STP Indicates if STP is enabled on the port. The possible field values are: Enable Indicates that STP is enabled on the port. Disable Indicates that STP is disabled on the port. Priority Indicates the priority value of the port. The priority value influences the port choice when a bridge has two ports connected in a loop. The priority value is between 0-240. The priority value is determined in increments of 16. Port State Displays the current STP state of a port. If enabled, the port state determines what forwarding action is taken on traffic. Possible port states are: Disabled Indicates that STP is currently disabled on the port. The port forwards traffic while learning MAC addresses. Blocking Indicates that the port is currently blocked and cannot forward traffic or learn MAC addresses. Blocking is displayed when Classic STP is enabled. Forwarding Indicates the port is currently in the Forwarding mode. The port can forward traffic and learn new MAC addresses. Port Role Displays the port role assigned by the STP algorithm to provide to STP paths. The possible field values are: Root Provides the lowest cost path to forward packets to the root switch. Designated The port or LAG through which the designated switch is attached to the LAN. Alternate Provides an alternate path to the root switch from the root interface. Backup Provides a backup path to the designated port path toward the Spanning Tree leaves. Backup ports occur only when two ports are connected in a loop by a point-to-point link, or when a LAN has two or more connections to a shared segment. Disabled The port is not participating in the Spanning Tree. Speed Indicates the speed at which the port is operating.

Path Cost Indicates the port contribution to the root path cost. The path cost is adjusted to a higher or lower value, and is used to forward traffic when a path is rerouted. Default Path Cost Indicates if the default path cost of the port is automatically set by the port speed and the default path cost method. Port Fast Indicates if Fast Link is enabled on the port. If Fast Link mode is enabled for a port, the Port State is automatically placed in the Forwarding state when the port link is up. Fast Link optimizes the STP protocol convergence. STP convergence can take 30-60 seconds in large networks. Enable Port Fast is enabled. Disable Port Fast is disabled. Auto Port Fast mode is enabled a few seconds after the interface becomes active. Root Guard Used to prevent an unauthorized device from becoming the root of a spanning tree. It also enables detection and resolution of misconfigurations, while preventing loops or loss of connectivity. BPDU Guard BPDU Guard is used as a security mechanism to protect the network from invalid configurations. It is usually used either when fast link ports (ports connected to clients) are enabled or when STP feature is disabled. When BPDU guard is enabled on a port, the port is shut down if a BPDU message is received and an appropriate SNMP trap is generated. The port must then be reactivated by using the set interface active command. The BPDU Guard indicates if BPDU is enabled for the selected interface. The possible field values are: Enable Enables BPDU guard on the selected port or LAG. Disable Disables BPDU guard on the selected port or LAG. This is the default value. Designated Bridge ID Indicates the bridge priority and the MAC Address of the designated bridge. Designated Port ID Indicates the selected port priority and interface. Designated Cost Indicates the cost of the port participating in the STP topology. Ports with a lower cost are less likely to be blocked if STP detects loops. Forward Transitions Indicates the number of times the port has changed from Forwarding state to Blocking state. LAG Indicates the LAG to which the port belongs.

Port Status Displays the RSTP status for the port on which RSTP is enabled. The possible field values are: Disable indicates the port is currently disabled. Forwarding Indicates the port is currently linked and forwarding traffic. Point-to-Point Status Indicates whether a point-to-point link is established, or if the device is permitted to establish a point-to-point link. The possible field values are: Enable The device is permitted to establish a point-to-point link, or is configured to automatically establish a point-to-point link. To establish communications over a point-to-point link, the originating PPP first sends Link Control Protocol (LCP) packets to configure and test the data link. After a link is established and optional facilities are negotiated as needed by the LCP, the originating PPP sends Network Control Protocol (NCP) packets to select and configure one or more network layer protocols. When each of the chosen network layer protocols has been configured, packets from each network layer protocol can be sent over the link. The link remains configured for communications until explicit LCP or NCP packets close the link, or until some external event occurs. This is the actual switch port link type.

Defining Multiple Spanning Tree


Multiple Spanning Tree (MSTP) provides differing load balancing scenarios. For example, while port A is blocked in one STP instance, the same port can be placed in the Forwarding state in another STP instance. The MSTP General Page contains information for defining global MSTP settings, including region names, MSTP revisions, and maximum hops. MSTP generates a unique spanning tree for each instance. This provides multiple pathways across the network, thereby balancing the traffic load, preventing wide-scale disruption when a bridge node in a single instance fails, and allowing for faster convergence of a new topology for the failed instance. By default all VLANs are assigned to the Internal Spanning Tree (MST Instance 0) that connects all bridges and LANs within the MST region. This switch supports up to 16 instances. You should try to group VLANs which cover the same general area of your network. However, remember that you must configure all bridges within the same MSTI Region with the same set of instances, and the same instance (on each bridge) with the same set of VLANs.

Defining MSTP Instance Settings


MSTP maps VLANs into STP instances. Packets assigned to various VLANs are transmitted along different paths within Multiple Spanning Tree Regions (MST Regions). Regions are one or more Multiple Spanning Tree bridges by which frames can be transmitted. In configuring MSTP, the MST region to which the device belongs is defined. A configuration consists of the name, revision, and region to which the device belongs. Network administrators can define the MSTP instance settings using the MSTP Instance Settings Page. Note: To ensure that the MSTI maintains connectivity across the network, you must
configure a related set of bridges with the same MSTI settings.

Configuring the Switch

Configuring VLANs
In large networks, routers are used to isolate broadcast traffic for each subnet into separate domains. This switch provides a similar service at Layer 2 by using VLANs to organize any group of network nodes into separate broadcast domains. VLANs confine broadcast traffic to the originating group, and can eliminate broadcast storms in large networks. This also provides a more secure and cleaner network environment. An IEEE VLAN is a group of ports that can be located anywhere in the network, but communicate as though they belong to the same physical segment. VLANs help to simplify network management by allowing you to move devices to a new VLAN without having to change any physical connections. VLANs can be easily organized to reflect departmental groups (such as Marketing or R&D), usage groups (such as e-mail), or multicast groups (used for multimedia applications such as video conferencing). VLANs provide greater network efficiency by reducing broadcast traffic, and allow you to make network changes without having to update IP addresses or IP subnets. VLANs inherently provide a high level of network security since traffic must pass through a configured Layer 3 link to reach a different VLAN. This switch supports the following VLAN features: Up to 255 VLANs based on the IEEE 802.1Q standard Distributed VLAN learning across multiple switches using explicit or implicit tagging and GVRP protocol Port overlapping, allowing a port to participate in multiple VLANs End stations can belong to multiple VLANs Passing traffic between VLAN-aware and VLAN-unaware devices Priority tagging

Assigning Ports to VLANs


Before enabling VLANs for the switch, you must first assign each port to the VLAN group(s) in which it will participate. By default all ports are assigned to VLAN 1 as untagged ports. Add a port as a tagged port if you want it to carry traffic for one or more VLANs, and any intermediate network devices or the host at the other end of the connection supports VLANs. Then assign ports on the other VLAN-aware network devices along the path that will carry this traffic to the same VLAN(s), either manually or dynamically using GVRP. However, if you want a port on this switch to participate in one or more VLANs, but none of the intermediate network devices nor the host at the other end of the connection supports VLANs, then you should add this port to the VLAN as an untagged port. Note: VLAN-tagged frames can pass through VLAN-aware or VLAN-unaware network
interconnection devices, but the VLAN tags should be stripped off before passing it on to any end-node host that does not support VLAN tagging.

204

Configuring VLANs

VLAN Classification When the switch receives a frame, it classifies the frame in one of two ways. If the frame is untagged, the switch assigns the frame to an associated VLAN (based on the default VLAN ID of the receiving port). But if the frame is tagged, the switch uses the tagged VLAN ID to identify the port broadcast domain of the frame. Port Overlapping Port overlapping can be used to allow access to commonly shared network resources among different VLAN groups, such as file servers or printers. Untagged VLANs Untagged (or static) VLANs are typically used to reduce broadcast traffic and to increase security. A group of network users assigned to a VLAN form a broadcast domain that is separate from other VLANs configured on the switch. Packets are forwarded only between ports that are designated for the same VLAN. Untagged VLANs can be used to manually isolate user groups or subnets. However, you should use IEEE 802.3 tagged VLANs with GVRP whenever possible to fully automate VLAN registration. Automatic VLAN Registration GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol) defines a system whereby the switch can automatically learn the VLANs to which each end station should be assigned. If an end station (or its network adapter) supports the IEEE VLAN protocol, it can be configured to broadcast a message to your network indicating the VLAN groups it wants to join. When this switch receives these messages, it will automatically place the receiving port in the specified VLANs, and then forward the message to all other ports. When the message arrives at another switch that supports GVRP, it will also place the receiving port in the specified VLANs, and pass the message on to all other ports. VLAN requirements are propagated in this way throughout the network. This allows GVRP-compliant devices to be automatically configured for VLAN groups based solely on endstation requests. To implement GVRP in a network, first add the host devices to the required VLANs (using the operating system or other application software), so that these VLANs can be propagated onto the network. For both the edge switches attached directly to these hosts, and core switches in the network, enable GVRP on the links between these devices. You should also determine security boundaries in the network and disable GVRP on the boundary ports to prevent advertisements from being propagated, or forbid those ports from joining restricted VLANs.

205

Configuring the Switch

Note: If you have host devices that do not support GVRP, you should configure static or
untagged VLANs for the switch ports connected to these devices. But you can still enable GVRP on these edge switches, as well as on the core switches in the network.

Tagged/Untagged VLANs
If you want to create a small port-based VLAN for devices attached directly to a single switch, you can assign ports to the same untagged VLAN. However, to participate in a VLAN group that crosses several switches, you should create a VLAN for that group and enable tagging on all ports. Ports can be assigned to multiple tagged or untagged VLANs. Each port on the switch is therefore capable of passing tagged or untagged frames. When forwarding a frame from this switch along a path that contains any VLAN-aware devices, the switch should include VLAN tags. When forwarding a frame from this switch along a path that does not contain any VLAN-aware devices (including the destination host), the switch must first strip off the VLAN tag before forwarding the frame. When the switch receives a tagged frame, it will pass this frame onto the VLAN(s) indicated by the frame tag. However, when this switch receives an untagged frame from a VLAN-unaware device, it first decides where to forward the frame, and then inserts a VLAN tag reflecting the ingress ports default VID.

Defining VLAN Groups


VLAN groups increase network flexibility and portability. For example, network users grouped by MAC address can log on to the network from multiple locations without moving between VLANs. VLANs can be grouped by MAC address, Subnets, and Protocols. Once a user logs on, the system attempts to classify the user by MAC address. If the user cannot be classified by MAC address, the system attempts to classify the user by Subnet. If the subnet classification is unsuccessful, the system attempts to classify the user by protocol. If the protocol classification is unsuccessful, the user is classified by PVID.

Multicast Filtering

Multicast Filtering
Multicasting is used to support real-time applications such as video conferencing or streaming audio. A multicast server does not have to establish a separate connection with each client. It merely broadcasts its service to the network, and any hosts that want to receive the multicast register with their local multicast switch or router. Although this approach reduces the network overhead required by a multicast server, the broadcast traffic must be carefully pruned at every multicast switch/router it passes through to ensure that traffic is only passed on to the hosts which subscribed to this service. This section contains information for configuring Multicast forwarding and Multicast TV, and includes the following sections: Defining IGMP Snooping Specifying Static Interfaces for a Multicast Group Displaying Interfaces Attached to a Multicast Router Configuring Multicast TV Defining Multicast TV Membership

Defining IGMP Snooping


This switch uses IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) to query for any attached hosts that want to receive a specific multicast service. It identifies the ports containing hosts requesting to join the service and sends data out to those ports only. It then propagates the service request up to any neighboring multicast switch or router to ensure that it will continue to receive the multicast service. This procedure is called multicast filtering. The IGMP Snooping Querier is used to support IGMP snooping where the multicast traffic is not routed. The purpose of IP multicast filtering is to optimize a switched networks performance, so multicast packets will only be forwarded to those ports containing multicast group hosts or multicast routers/switches, instead of flooding traffic to all ports in the subnet (VLAN).

Configuring Triple Play


Network Manager can enhance Multicast TV services using the Triple Play

230

Configuring Quality of Service

Technology. Triple Plays services catapult networking into the next generation of IT services by combining cable television, VoIP, and high speed internet connections via a single cable. Triple Play service ensure that Layer 2 isolation between subscribers remains intact. Service provider packets sent to the subscriber arrive from the following VLAN types: Subscriber VLANs Multicast TV VLANs Each subscriber on a network maintains a Customer Premise Equipment Multi-Connect (CPE MUX) box. The MUX boxes directs network traffic from uplink ports to MUX access ports. MUX access ports are based on VLAN tags located in packet headers. Service providers packets are tagged twice. Each packet has an internal tag and an external tag. The external tag indicates if the packet arrived from a Multicast TV VLAN or from a subscribers VLAN. The internal tag indicates the port within the VLAN to which the packet is addressed. The VLAN tag identifies: The media service type, including: Internet TV Phone The service provider.

Configuring Quality of Service


Network traffic is usually unpredictable, and the only basic assurance that can be offered is best effort traffic delivery. To overcome this challenge, Quality of Service (QoS) is applied throughout the network. This ensures that network traffic is prioritized according to specified criteria, and that specific traffic receives preferential treatment. QoS in the network optimizes network performance and entails two basic facilities: Classifying incoming traffic into handling classes, based on an attribute, including: The ingress interface Packet content A combination of these attributes Providing various mechanisms for determining the allocation of network resources to different handling classes, including: The assignment of network traffic to a particular hardware queue The assignment of internal resources Traffic shaping In this document, the terms Class of Service (CoS) and QoS are used in the following context:

231

Configuring the Switch

CoS provides varying Layer 2 traffic services. CoS refers to classification of traffic to traffic-classes, which are handled as an aggregate whole, with no per-flow settings. CoS is usually related to the 802.1p service that classifies flows according to their Layer 2 priority, as set in the VLAN header. QoS refers to Layer 2 traffic and above. QoS handles per-flow settings, even within a single traffic class. The QoS facility involves the following elements: Access Control Lists (ACLs) Used to decide which traffic is allowed to enter the system, and which is to be dropped. Only traffic that meets this criteria are subject to CoS or QoS settings. ACLs are used in QoS and network security. Traffic Classification Classifies each incoming packet as belonging to a given traffic class, based on the packet contents and/or the context. Assignment to Hardware Queues Assigns incoming packets to forwarding queues. Packets are sent to a particular queue for handling as a function of the traffic class to which they belong, as defined by the classification mechanism. Traffic Class-Handling Attributes Applies QoS/CoS mechanisms to different classes, including: Bandwidth Management Shaping/ Rate Limiting Policing

Access Control Lists


the first element of the QoS facility is the Access Control Lists (ACLs) which inspects incoming packets and classify them into logical groups, based on various criteria. ACL groups have specific actions that are carried out on every packet that is classified to the group. ACLs enable actions which include: Forward Deny Deny and disable port ACLs are used for the following main purposes: As a security mechanism, either permitting or denying entry to packets in a group. This mechanism is described in the section on Network Security. As a mechanism to classify packets into traffic classes for which various CoS/QoS handling actions are executed. ACLs contain multiple classification rules and actions. An Access Control Element (ACE) is composed of a single classification rule and its action. A single ACL may contain one or more ACEs. The order of the ACEs within an ACL is important, as they are applied in a first-fit manner. The ACEs are processed sequentially, starting with the first ACE. When a packet is matched to an ACE classification, the ACE action is performed and the ACL processing terminates. If more than one ACL is to be processed, the default drop action is applied only after processing all the ACLs. The default drop action requires the user to explicitly allow all the traffic that is permitted, including

232

Configuring Quality of Service

management traffic, such as telnet, HTTP, or SNMP that is directed to the router itself. Two types of ACLs are defined: IP ACL Applies only to IP packets. All classification fields are related to IP packets. MAC ACL Applies to any packet, including non-IP packets. Classification fields are based only on Layer 2. There are two ways to apply ACLs to an interface: Policy In this form, ACLs are grouped together into a more complex structure, called a policy. The policy can contain both ACLs and QoS rules. The user can apply the policy to an interface (see Advanced QoS Mode). Simple In the simple form, a single (MAC or IP) ACL is applied to an interface. Although a policy cannot be applied to an interface, it is possible to apply basic QoS rules that classify packets to output queues (see Basic QoS Mode).

Mapping to Queues
Queues are used in both Basic and Advanced QoS modes. Default settings are applied to maps in Service QoS mode. A Trust Behavior can be selected, or the output service fields can be selected, including: VLAN Priority Tags (VPT) VPTs are mapped to an output queues based on the VPT. While queue mapping is user-configurable, the VPT default mapping to the output queue is as follows. In the VPT default mapping, Queue 2 has the lowest priority. The following table contains the VPT to Queue default settings:
Table 3-5. VPT Default Mapping Table VPT Value 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Queue Number 2 1 1 2 3 3 4 4

Notes:1. Mapping of the VPT to the output queue is performed on a system-wide


basis, and can be enabled or disabled per port.

2. Packets may egress with a different VLAN Priority Tag than the one with
which they ingressed. A different tag may be applied to the packets. If no QoS mode is configured, then the VPT for tagged packets remains unchanged. For untagged traffic, a VPT is assigned. When VPT trust mode is configured, untagged packets are mapped to the default port VPT.

233

Configuring the Switch

Default CoS Packets arriving untagged are assigned to a default VPT, which can be set by the user on a per port basis. Once the VPT is assigned, the packet is treated as if it had arrived with this tag. The VPT mapping to the output queue is based on the same user-defined 802.1p tag-based definitions. DSCP The user can configure the system to use the IP DSCP of the incoming packet to the output priority queues. The mapping of the IP DSCP to priority queue is set on a per system basis. If this mode is active, a non-IP packet is always classified to the best effort queue. The default mapping is shown in the following table:
Table 3-6. DSCP Default Mapping Table DSCP Value 0-15 16-31 32-47 48-64 Queue Number q1 (Lowest Priority) q2 q3 q4

All network traffic which is not assigned a DSCP value is forwarded with Best Effort service. After packets are assigned to a specific queue, using the chosen classification method various services can be applied. Scheduling for output queues can be configured, including: Strict priority. Weighted Round Robin (WRR) Scheduling schemes are specified per system. For each interface or queue, the following output shaping can also be configured: Committed Information Rate (CIR)

QoS Modes
The device supports the following QoS modes: Basic QoS Mode Advanced QoS Mode Note: When moving to and from basic and advanced QoS modes, some settings may be
lost.

Basic QoS Mode


Basic Mode supports activating one of the following Trust settings: VLAN Priority Tag DiffServ Code Point None In addition, a single MAC-based or IP-based ACL can be attached directly to the interface (see Defining QoS Class Maps for more information). Only packets that

234

Configuring Quality of Service

have a Forward action are assigned to the output queue, based on the specified classification. By properly configuring the output queues, the following basic mode services can be set: Minimum Delay The queue is assigned to a strict priority policy, and traffic is assigned to the highest priority queue. Best Effort Traffic is assigned to the lowest priority queue Bandwidth Assignments Bandwidths are assigned by configuring the WRR scheduling scheme.

Advanced QoS Mode


Advanced QoS mode provides rules for specifying flow classification and assigning rule actions that relate to bandwidth management. In advanced QoS mode, ACLs can be applied directly to an interface. However, a policy and ACL cannot be simultaneously applied to an interface. Deny is the default action for packets not matched to a policy classification. Deny All is the default action for packets not matching any of the classifications within the policy. After assigning packets to a specific queue, services such as configuring output queues for the scheduling scheme, or CIR, per interface can be applied. Note that packets may egress with a different VPT tag than that with which they ingressed. Packets are always assigned a VPT tag of 0 or 1 at the egress. When using trust VPT this caveat does not exist, and packets egress with the same VPT with which they ingressed. When configuring the system to work in Advanced Quality of Service Mode, the system remains in Trust DSCP mode.

Enabling QoS

Defining Policies
A policy is a collection of classes, each of which is a combination of a class map and a QoS action to apply to matching traffic. Classes are applied in a first-fit manner within a policy. Before configuring policies for classes whose match criteria are defined in a class map, a class map must first be defined, or the name of the policy map to be created, added to, or modified must first be specified. Class policies can be configured in a policy map only if the classes have defined match criteria. An aggregate policer can be applied to multiple classes in the same policy map, but an aggregate policer cannot be used across different policy maps. Define an aggregate policer if the policer is shared with multiple classes. Policers in one port cannot be shared with other policers in another device. Traffic from two different ports can be aggregated for policing purposes.

Chapter 4: Command Line Interface


This chapter describes how to use the Command Line Interface (CLI).

Using the Command Line Interface


Accessing the CLI
When accessing the management interface for the switch over a direct connection to the servers console port, or via a Telnet connection, the switch can be managed by entering command keywords and parameters at the prompt. Using the switch's command-line interface (CLI) is very similar to entering commands on a UNIX system.

Console Connection
To access the switch through the console port, perform these steps: 1. At the console prompt, enter the user name and password. (The default user names are admin and guest with corresponding passwords of admin and guest.) When the administrator user name and password is entered, the CLI displays the Console# prompt and enters privileged access mode (i.e., Privileged Exec). But when the guest user name and password is entered, the CLI displays the Console> prompt and enters normal access mode (i.e., Normal Exec). Enter the necessary commands to complete your desired tasks. When finished, exit the session with the quit or exit command.

2. 3.

After connecting to the system through the console port, the login screen displays:
User Access Verification Username: admin Password: CLI session with the OmniStack 6300 is opened. To end the CLI session, enter [Exit]. Console#

Telnet Connection
Telnet operates over the IP transport protocol. In this environment, your management station and any network device you want to manage over the network must have a valid IP address. Valid IP addresses consist of four numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods. Each address consists of a network portion and host portion. For example, the IP address assigned to this switch, 10.1.0.1, consists of a network portion (10.1.0) and a host portion (1).
Note: The IP address for this switch is unassigned by default.

253

Command Line Interface

To access the switch through a Telnet session, you must first set the IP address for the switch, and set the default gateway if you are managing the switch from a different IP subnet. For example,
Console(config)#interface vlan 1 Console(config-if)#ip address 10.1.0.254 255.255.255.0 Console(config-if)#exit Console(config)#ip default-gateway 10.1.0.254

If your corporate network is connected to another network outside your office or to the Internet, you need to apply for a registered IP address. However, if you are attached to an isolated network, then you can use any IP address that matches the network segment to which you are attached. After you configure the switch with an IP address, you can open a Telnet session by performing these steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. From the remote host, enter the Telnet command and the IP address of the device you want to access. At the prompt, enter the user name and system password. Enter the necessary commands to complete your desired tasks. When finished, exit the session with the quit or exit command.

After entering the Telnet command, the login screen displays:


Username: admin Password: CLI session with the OmniStack 6300-24 is opened. To end the CLI session, enter [Exit].

Note: You can open up to four sessions to the device via Telnet.

254

Entering Commands

Entering Commands
This section describes how to enter CLI commands.

Keywords and Arguments


A CLI command is a series of keywords and arguments. Keywords identify a command, and arguments specify configuration parameters. For example, in the command show interfaces status ethernet 1/5, show interfaces and status are keywords, ethernet is an argument that specifies the interface type, and 1/5 specifies the unit/port. You can enter commands as follows: To enter a simple command, enter the command keyword. To enter multiple commands, enter each command in the required order. For example, to enable Privileged Exec command mode, and display the startup configuration, enter:
Console>enable Console#show startup-config

To enter commands that require parameters, enter the required parameters after the command keyword. For example, to set a password for the administrator, enter:
Console(config)#username admin password 0 smith

Minimum Abbreviation
The CLI will accept a minimum number of characters that uniquely identify a command. For example, the command configure can be entered as con. If an entry is ambiguous, the system will prompt for further input.

Command Completion
If you terminate input with a Tab key, the CLI will print the remaining characters of a partial keyword up to the point of ambiguity. In the logging history example, typing log followed by a tab will result in printing the command up to logging.

Getting Help on Commands


You can display a brief description of the help system by entering the help command. You can also display command syntax by using the ? character to list keywords or parameters.

255

Command Line Interface

Showing Commands
If you enter a ? at the command prompt, the system will display the first level of keywords for the current command class (Normal Exec or Privileged Exec) or configuration class (Global, ACL, Interface, Line, VLAN Database, or MSTP). You can also display a list of valid keywords for a specific command. For example, the command show ? displays a list of possible show commands:
Console#show ? access-group access-list amap bridge-ext calendar class map dns dot1x garp gvrp history hosts interfaces ip lacp line logging mac mac-address-table management map marking policy-map port protocol-vlan public-key pvlan queue radius-server running-config snmp sntp spanning-tree ssh startup-config system tacacs-server users version vlan Console#show Access groups Access lists Show AMAP status Bridge extend information Date information Display class maps DNS information Show 802.1x content Garp property Show GVRP information of interface Information of history Host information Information of interfaces IP information Show lacp statistic TTY line information Show the contents of logging buffers MAC access lists Set configuration of the address table Show management ip filter Map priority Specify marker Display policy maps Characteristics of the port Protocol-vlan information Show information of public key Information of private VLAN Information of priority queue RADIUS server information The system configuration of running SNMP statistics Sntp Specify spanning-tree Secure shell The system configuration of starting up Information of system Login by tacacs server Display information about terminal lines System hardware and software status Switch VLAN Virtual Interface

The command show interfaces ? will display the following information:


Console#show interfaces ? counters Information of interfaces counters protocol-vlan Protocol-vlan information status Information of interfaces status switchport Information of interfaces switchport Console#

256

Entering Commands Partial Keyword Lookup

If you terminate a partial keyword with a question mark, alternatives that match the initial letters are provided. (Remember not to leave a space between the command and question mark.) For example s? shows all the keywords starting with s.
Console#show s? snmp sntp system Console# spanning-tree ssh startup-config

Negating the Effect of Commands


For many configuration commands you can enter the prefix keyword no to cancel the effect of a command or reset the configuration to the default value. For example, the logging command will log system messages to a host server. To disable logging, specify the no logging command. This guide describes the negation effect for all applicable commands.

Using Command History


The CLI maintains a history of commands that have been entered. You can scroll back through the history of commands by pressing the up arrow key. Any command displayed in the history list can be executed again, or first modified and then executed. Using the show history command displays a longer list of recently executed commands.

Understanding Command Modes


The command set is divided into Exec and Configuration classes. Exec commands generally display information on system status or clear statistical counters. Configuration commands, on the other hand, modify interface parameters or enable certain switching functions. These classes are further divided into different modes. Available commands depend on the selected mode. You can always enter a question mark ? at the prompt to display a list of the commands available for the current mode. The command classes and associated modes are displayed in the following table:
Table 4-1. Command Modes Class Exec Configuration Mode Normal Privileged Global* Access Control List Interface Line Multiple Spanning Tree VLAN Database

* You must be in Privileged Exec mode to access the Global configuration mode. You must be in Global Configuration mode to access any of the other configuration modes.

257

Command Line Interface

Exec Commands
When you open a new console session on the switch with the user name and password guest, the system enters the Normal Exec command mode (or guest mode), displaying the Console> command prompt. Only a limited number of the commands are available in this mode. You can access all commands only from the Privileged Exec command mode (or administrator mode). To access Privilege Exec mode, open a new console session with the user name and password admin. The system will now display the Console# command prompt. You can also enter Privileged Exec mode from within Normal Exec mode, by entering the enable command, followed by the privileged level password super . To enter Privileged Exec mode, enter the following user names and passwords:
Username: admin Password: [admin login password] CLI session with the OmniStack 6300-24 is opened. To end the CLI session, enter [Exit]. Console# Username: guest Password: [guest login password] CLI session with the OmniStack 6300-24 is opened. To end the CLI session, enter [Exit]. Console#enable Password: [privileged level password] Console#

Configuration Commands
Configuration commands are privileged level commands used to modify switch settings. These commands modify the running configuration only and are not saved when the switch is rebooted. To store the running configuration in non-volatile storage, use the copy running-config startup-config command. The configuration commands are organized into different modes: Global Configuration - These commands modify the system level configuration, and include commands such as hostname and snmp-server community. Access Control List Configuration - These commands are used for packet filtering. Interface Configuration - These commands modify the port configuration such as speed-duplex and negotiation. Line Configuration - These commands modify the console port and Telnet configuration, and include command such as parity and databits. VLAN Configuration - Includes the command to create VLAN groups. Multiple Spanning Tree Configuration - These commands configure settings for the selected multiple spanning tree instance.

258

Entering Commands

To enter the Global Configuration mode, enter the command configure in Privileged Exec mode. The system prompt will change to Console(config)# which gives you access privilege to all Global Configuration commands.
Console#configure Console(config)#

To enter the other modes, at the configuration prompt type one of the following commands. Use the exit or end command to return to the Privileged Exec mode.
Table 4-2. Configuration Command Modes Mode Line Access Control List Command line (console) access-list ip standard access-list ip extended access-list ip mask-precedence access-list mac access-list mac mask-precedence vlan database spanning-tree mst-configuration class-map Prompt Console(config-line)# Console(config-std-acl) Console(config-ext-acl) Console(config-ip-mask-acl) Console(config-mac-acl) Console(config-mac-mask-acl) Console(config-vlan) Console(config-mstp)# Console(config-cmap)#

Interface VLAN MSTP QoS

interface {ethernet port | port-channel id| vlan id} Console(config-if)#

For example, you can use the following commands to enter interface configuration mode, and then return to Privileged Exec mode
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5 . . . Console(config-if)#exit Console(config)#

Command Line Processing


Commands are not case sensitive. You can abbreviate commands and parameters as long as they contain enough letters to differentiate them from any other currently available commands or parameters. You can use the Tab key to complete partial commands, or enter a partial command followed by the ? character to display a list of possible matches. You can also use the following editing keystrokes for command-line processing:
Table 4-3. Keystroke Commands Keystroke Ctrl-A Ctrl-B Ctrl-C Ctrl-E Function Shifts cursor to start of command line. Shifts cursor to the left one character. Terminates the current task and displays the command prompt. Shifts cursor to end of command line.

The dot1x auth-not-req Interface Configuration mode command enables unauthorized devices access to the VLAN. To disable access to the VLAN, use the no form of this command. Syntax
dot1x auth-not-req no dot1x auth-not-req

Default Configuration Access is enabled. Command Mode Interface Configuration (VLAN) mode Command Usage An access port cannot be a member in an unauthenticated VLAN. The native VLAN of a trunk port cannot be an unauthenticated VLAN. For a general port, the PVID can be an unauthenticated VLAN (although only tagged packets would be accepted in the unauthorized state.)

dot1x multiple-hosts
The dot1x multiple-hosts Interface Configuration mode command enables multiple hosts (clients) on an 802.1X-authorized port, where the authorization state of the port is set to auto. To return to the default configuration, use the no form of this command. Syntax
dot1x multiple-hosts [authentication]] no dot1x multiple-hosts

Parameters authentication Specifies that each station should be 802.1x authenticated. Default Configuration Multiple hosts are disabled. Command Mode Interface Configuration (Ethernet) mode Command Usage This command enables the attachment of multiple clients to a single 802.1X-enabled port. If you use this command without the authentication keyword, only one of the attached hosts must be successfully authorized for all hosts to be granted network access. If the port becomes unauthorized, all attached clients are denied access to the network. If you use this command with the authentication keyword, each host must be successfully authorized in order to grant network access. Please note that packets are NOT encrypted, and after success full authentication filtering is based on the source MAC address only. For unauthenticated VLANs multiple hosts are always enabled. Port security on a port cannot be enabled if the port if multiple hosts are disabled or multiple hosts are enabled with authentication per host.

AMAP Commands

AMAP Commands
The AMAP protocol discovers adjacent switches by sending and receiving AMAP Hello packets on active Spanning Tree ports. Each port can be defined as being in one of three logical states of processing the AMAP "Hello" packets: Discovery The initial state where a port transmits a Hello packet to detect an adjacent switch and then waits for a response. Common The port has detected an adjacent switch and periodically sends Hello packets to determine that it is still present. Passive A port enters this state if there is no response to a Discovery hello packet. This is a receive-only state and no Hello packets are transmitted. If a Hello packet is received from an adjacent switch, the port enters the Common state and then transmits a Hello packet in reply. Use the AMAP Global Configuration screen to enable/disable AMAP and configure timeout parameters.

gvrp enable (Global)


GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) is an industry-standard protocol designed to propagate VLAN information from device to device. With GVRP, a single device is manually configured with all desired VLANs for the network, and all other devices on the network learn these VLANs dynamically. The gvrp enable Global Configuration mode command enables GVRP globally. To disable GVRP on the device, use the no form of this command. Syntax
gvrp enable no gvrp enable

Default Setting GVRP is globally disabled.

gvrp enable (Interface)


The gvrp enable Interface Configuration (Ethernet, port-channel) mode command enables GVRP on an interface. To disable GVRP on an interface, use the no form of this command. Syntax
gvrp enable no gvrp enable

Default Setting GVRP is disabled on all interfaces. Command Mode Interface Configuration (Ethernet, port-channel) mode Command Usage An access port does not dynamically join a VLAN because it is always a member in only one VLAN. Membership in an untagged VLAN is propagated in the same way as in a tagged VLAN. That is, the PVID is manually defined as the untagged VLAN VID. Example The following example enables GVRP on Ethernet port 1/e6.
Console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e6 Console(config-if)# gvrp enable

Parameters {join | leave | leaveall} Indicates the type of timer. timer_value Timer values in milliseconds in multiples of 10. (Range: 10-2147483640) Default Setting Following are the default timer values: Join timer 200 milliseconds Leave timer 600 milliseconds Leavall timer 10000 milliseconds Command Mode Interface configuration (Ethernet, port-channel) mode Command Usage The timer_value value must be a multiple of 10. You must maintain the following relationship for the various timer values: Leave time must be greater than or equal to three times the join time. Leave-all time must be greater than the leave time. Set the same GARP timer values on all Layer 2-connected devices. If the GARP timers are set differently on the Layer 2-connected devices, the GARP application will not operate successfully. Example The following example sets the leave timer for Ethernet port 1/e6 to 900 milliseconds.

Related Commands ip default-gateway ip address dhcp

ip address dhcp
The ip address dhcp Interface Configuration (Ethernet, VLAN, port-channel) mode command acquires an IP address for an Ethernet interface from the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. To deconfigure an acquired IP address, use the no form of this command. Syntax
ip address dhcp [hostname host-name] no ip address dhcp

Parameters host-name Specifies the name of the host to be placed in the DHCP option 12 field. This name does not have to be the same as the host name specified in the hostname Global Configuration mode command. (Range: 1-20 characters)

419

Command Line Interface

Default Setting This command has no default configuration. Command Mode Interface Configuration (Ethernet, VLAN, port-channel) mode Command Usage The ip address dhcp command allows any interface to dynamically learn its IP address by using the DHCP protocol. Some DHCP servers require that the DHCPDISCOVER message have a specific host name. The ip address dhcp hostname host-name command is most typically used when the host name is provided by the system administrator. If the device is configured to obtain its IP address from a DHCP server, it sends a DHCPDISCOVER message to provide information about itself to the DHCP server on the network. If the ip address dhcp command is used with or without the optional keyword, the DHCP option 12 field (host name option) is included in the DISCOVER message. By default, the specified DHCP host name is the globally configured host name of the device. However, the ip address dhcp hostname host-name command can be used to place a different host name in the DHCP option 12 field. The no ip address dhcp command deconfigures any IP address that was acquired, thus sending a DHCPRELEASE message. Example The following example acquires an IP address for Ethernet port 1/e16 from DHCP.
Console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e16 Console(config-if)# ip address dhcp

Related Commands ip address ip default-gateway

class-map class-map-name [match-all | match-any] no class-map class-map-name

Parameters class-map-name Specifies the name of the class map. match-all Checks that the packet matches all classification criteria in the class map match statement.

469

Command Line Interface


match-any Checks that the packet matches one or more classification criteria in the class map match statement.

Default Setting By default, the match-all parameter is selected. Command Mode Global Configuration mode Command Usage The class-map Global Configuration mode command is used to define packet classification, marking and aggregate policing as part of a globally named service policy applied on a per-interface basis. The Class-Map Configuration mode enables entering up to two match Class-map Configuration mode commands to configure the classification criteria for the specified class. If two match Class-map Configuration mode commands are entered, each should point to a different type of ACL (e.g., one to an IP ACL and one to a MAC ACL). Since packet classification is based on the order of the classification criteria, the order in which the match Class-Map Configuration mode commands are entered is important. If there is more than one match statement in a match-all class map and the same classification field appears in the participating ACLs, an error message is generated.
Note: A class map in match-all mode cannot be configured if it contains both an IP ACL and a MAC ACL with an ether type that is not 0x0800.

Example The following example creates a class map called class1 and configures it to check that packets match all classification criteria in the class map match statement.
Console(config)# class-map class1 match-all Console(config-cmap)#

qos trust (Global)


The qos trust Global Configuration mode command configures the system to the basic mode and trust state. To return to the untrusted state, use the no form of this command. Syntax
qos trust {cos | dscp} no qos trust

Parameters cos Indicates that ingress packets are classified with packet CoS values. Untagged packets are classified with the default port CoS value. dscp Indicates that ingress packets are classified with packet DSCP values. Default Setting CoS is the default trust mode. Command Mode Global Configuration mode Command Usage Packets entering a quality of service (QoS) domain are classified at the edge of the QoS domain. When packets are classified at the edge, the switch port within the QoS domain can be configured to one of the trusted states because there is no need to classify the packets at every device in the domain. A switch port on an inter-QoS domain boundary can be configured to the DSCP trust state, and, if the DSCP values are different between the QoS domains, the DSCP to DSCP mutation map can be applied. Use this command to specify whether the port is trusted and which fields of the packet to use to classify traffic.

489

Command Line Interface


When the system is configured as trust DSCP, traffic is mapped to a queue according to the DSCP-queue map. If QoS Mode is set to Advanced, the command qos trust is applied only to packets that egress from the GE ports.

Example The following example configures the system to the DSCP trust state.

qos dscp-mutation
The qos dscp-mutation Global Configuration mode command applies the DSCP Mutation map to a system DSCP trusted port. To return to the trust state with no DSCP mutation, use the no form of this command. Syntax
qos dscp-mutation no qos dscp-mutation

Default Setting This command has no default configuration. Command Mode Global Configuration mode. Command Usage The DSCP to DSCP mutation map is applied to a port at the boundary of a Quality of Service (QoS) administrative domain. If two QoS domains have different DSCP definitions, use the DSCP to DSCP mutation map to match one set of DSCP values with the DSCP values of another domain. Apply the DSCP to DSCP mutation map only to ingress and to DSCP-trusted ports. Applying this map to a port causes IP packets to be rewritten with newly mapped DSCP values at the ingress ports. If the DSCP to DSCP mutation map is applied to an untrusted port, class of service (CoS) or IP-precedence trusted port, this command has no immediate effect until the port becomes DSCP-trusted.

snmp-server engineID local


The snmp-server engineID local Global Configuration mode command specifies the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) engineID on the local device. To remove the configured engine ID, use the no form of this command. Syntax
snmp-server engineID local {engineid-string | default}

523

Command Line Interface


no snmp-server engineID local

Parameters engineid-string Specifies a character string that identifies the engine ID. (Range: 5-32 characters) default The engine ID is created automatically based on the device MAC address. Default Setting The engine ID is not configured. If SNMPv3 is enabled using this command, and the default is specified, the default engine ID is defined per standard as: First 4 octets first bit = 1, the rest is IANA Enterprise number = 674. Fifth octet set to 3 to indicate the MAC address that follows. Last 6 octets MAC address of the device. Command Mode Global Configuration mode Command Usage To use SNMPv3, you have to specify an engine ID for the device. You can specify your own ID or use a default string that is generated using the MAC address of the device. If the SNMPv3 engine ID is deleted or the configuration file is erased, SNMPv3 cannot be used. By default, SNMPv1/v2 are enabled on the device. SNMPv3 is enabled only by defining the Local Engine ID. If you want to specify your own ID, you do not have to specify the entire 32-character engine ID if it contains trailing zeros. Specify only the portion of the engine ID up to the point where just zeros remain in the value. For example, to configure an engine ID of 123400000000000000000000, you can specify snmp-server engineID local 1234. Since the engine ID should be unique within an administrative domain, the following is recommended: For a standalone device, use the default keyword to configure the engine ID. For a stackable system, configure the engine ID and verify its uniqueness. Changing the value of the engine ID has the following important side-effect. A user's password (entered on the command line) is converted to an MD5 or SHA security digest. This digest is based on both the password and the local engine ID. The users command line password is then destroyed, as required by RFC 2274. As a result, the security digests of SNMPv3 users become invalid if the local value of the engine ID change, and the users will have to be reconfigured.

524

SNMP Commands
You cannot specify an engine ID that consists of all 0x0, all 0xF or 0x000000001.

The show running-config Privileged EXEC mode command does not display the SNMP engine ID configuration. To see the SNMP engine ID configuration, enter the snmp-server engineID local GlobalConfiguration mode command.

instance (mst)
The instance MST Configuration mode command maps VLANS to an MST instance. Syntax
instance instance-id {add | remove} vlan vlan-range

556

Spanning-Tree Commands

Parameters instance-ID ID of the MST instance. (Range: 1-Product Specific upper limit) vlan-range VLANs to be added to or removed from the specified MST instance. To specify a range of VLANs, use a hyphen. To specify a series of VLANs, use a comma. (Range: 1-4094) Default Setting VLANs are mapped to the common and internal spanning tree (CIST) instance (instance 0). Command Modes MST Configuration mode Command Usage All VLANs that are not explicitly mapped to an MST instance are mapped to the common and internal spanning tree (CIST) instance (instance 0) and cannot be unmapped from the CIST. For two or more devices to be in the same MST region, they must have the same VLAN mapping, the same configuration revision number, and the same name. Example The following example maps VLANs 10-20 to MST instance 1.
Console(config)# spanning-tree mst configuration Console(config-mst)# instance 1 add vlan 10-20

spanning-tree guard root


The spanning-tree guard root Interface Configuration (Ethernet, port-channel) mode command enables root guard on all spanning tree instances on the interface. Root guard prevents the interface from becoming the root port of the device. To disable root guard on the interface, use the no form of this command. Syntax
spanning-tree guard root no spanning-tree guard root

Default Setting Root guard is disabled. Command Mode Interface Configuration (Ethernet, port-channel) mode

562

Spanning-Tree Commands
Command Usage Root guard can be enabled when the device operates in STP, RSTP and MSTP. When root guard is enabled, the port changes to the alternate state if spanning-tree calculations selects the port as the root port. Examples The following example prevents Ethernet port 1/g1 from being the root port of the device.
Console(config) # interface ethernet 1/g1 Console(config-mst) # spanning-tree guard root

Related Commands show spanning-tree

spanning-tree bpduguard
The spanning-tree bpduguard Interface Configuration (Ethernet, port-channel) mode command shutdowns an interface when it receives a bridge protocol data unit (BPDU). To restore the default configuration, use the no form of this command. Syntax spanning-tree bpduguard no spanning-tree bpduguard Default Configuration The default configuration is set to disabled. Command Mode Interface Configuration (Ethernet, port-channel) mode User Guidelines You can enable the command when the spanning tree is enabled (useful when the port is in the PortFast mode) or disabled.

dot1x bpdu
Use the dot1x bpdu global configuration command to define 802.1x BPDU handling when 802.1x is globally disabled. Use the no form of this command to return to default. Syntax dot1x bpdu {filtering | bridging} no dot1x bpdu Parameters filtering Specify that when 802.1x is globally disabled, 802.1x BPDU packets would be filtered.

563

Command Line Interface


bridging Specify that when 802.1x is globally disabled, 802.1x BPDU packets would be bridged.

Default Filtering Command Modes Global configuration Usage Guidelines According to IEEE802.1 standards the 802.1X BPDUs should never be forwarded - The 802.1X BPDUs should be handled by the software in case 802.1X is enabled on the ingress port, or discarded in all other cases. This feature enables to bridge 802.1X BPDUs packets as data packets. The feature can be enabled only when 802.1X is globally disabled (by the no dot1x system-auth-control global configuration command). If the port is disabled for 802.1X but 802.1X is enabled globally, 802.1X BPDUs would always be discarded.

show dot1x bpdu


Use the show dot1x bpdu EXEC command to display the 802.1x BPDU handling when 802.1x is globally disabled. Syntax show dot1x bpdu Command Modes EXEC Usage Guidelines There are no usage guidelines for this command Examples Switch# show dot1x bpdu 802.1X BPDU packets are trapped for the 802.1X protocol. Switch# show dot1x bpdu 802.1X BPDU packets are filtered. Switch# show dot1x bpdu 802.1X BPDU packets are bridged.

show spanning-tree
The show spanning-tree Privileged EXEC mode command displays spanning-tree configuration.

traceroute
The traceroute User EXEC mode command discovers routes that packets actually take when traveling to their destination. Syntax
traceroute {ip-address |hostname }[size packet_size] [ttl max-ttl] [count packet_count] [timeout time_out] [source ip-address] [tos tos]

Parameters ip-address IP address of the destination host. hostname Host name of the destination host. (Range: 1-158 characters) packet_size Number of bytes in a packet. (Range: 40-1500) max-ttl The largest TTL value that can be used. The traceroute command terminates when the destination is reached or when this value is reached. (Range:1-255) packet_count The number of probes to be sent at each TTL level. (Range:1-10) time_out The number of seconds to wait for a response to a probe packet. (Range:1-60) ip-address One of the devices interface addresses to use as a source address for the probes. The device normally selects what it feels is the best source address to use. tos The Type-Of-Service byte in the IP Header of the packet. (Range: 0-255) Default Setting The default number of bytes in a packet is 40. The default maximum TTL value is 30. The default number of probes to be sent at each TTL level is 3. The default timeout interval in seconds is 3. Command Mode User EXEC mode

606

System Management Commands

Command Usage The traceroute command takesadvantage of the error messages generated by the devices when a datagram exceeds its time-to-live (TTL) value. The traceroute command starts by sending probe datagrams with a TTL value of one. This causes the first device to discard the probe datagram and send back an error message. The traceroute command sends several probes at each TTL level and displays the round-trip time for each. The traceroute command sends out one probe at a time. Each outgoing packet may result in one or two error messages. A "time exceeded" error message indicates that an intermediate device has seen and discarded the probe. A "destination unreachable" error message indicates that the destination node has received the probe and discarded it because it could not deliver the packet. If the timer goes off before a response comes in, the traceroute command prints an asterisk (*). The traceroute command terminates when the destination responds, when the maximum TTL is exceeded or when the user interrupts the trace by pressing Esc. Examples The following example discovers the routes that packets will actually take when traveling to their destination.
Console> traceroute umaxp1.physics.lsa.umich.edu Type Esc to abort.

System Management Commands


Command Usage Telnet software supports special Telnet commands in the form of Telnet sequences that map generic terminal control functions to operating system-specific functions. To enter a Telnet sequence, press the escape sequence keys (Ctrl-shift-6) followed by a Telnet command character.
Special Telnet Sequences Telnet Sequence Ctrl-shift-6-b Ctrl-shift-6-c Ctrl-shift-6-h Ctrl-shift-6-o Ctrl-shift-6-t Ctrl-shift-6-u Purpose Break Interrupt Process (IP) Erase Character (EC) Abort Output (AO) Are You There? (AYT) Erase Line (EL)

At any time during an active Telnet session, Telnet commands can be listed by pressing the Ctrl-shift-6-? keys at the system prompt. A sample of this list follows. Note that the Ctrl-shift-6 sequence appears as ^^ on the screen.
Console> Ctrl-shift-6 ? [Special telnet escape help] ^^ B sends telnet BREAK ^^ C sends telnet IP ^^ H sends telnet EC ^^ O sends telnet AO ^^ T sends telnet AYT ^^ U sends telnet EL Ctrl-shift-6 x suspends the session (return to system command prompt)

Several concurrent Telnet sessions can be opened and switched. To open a subsequent session, the current connection has to be suspended by pressing the escape sequence keys (Ctrl-shift-6) and x to return to the system command prompt. Then open a new connection with the telnet User EXEC mode command.
Keywords Table Options /echo /quiet /source-interface Description Enables local echo. Prevents onscreen display of all messages from the software. Specifies the source interface.

-703

Configuring QinQ
This section contains information for configuring Customer VLANs using the Web Interface and using the CLI. QinQ tagging allows network managers to add an additional tag to previously tagged packets. Customer VLANs are configured using QinQ. Adding additional tags to the packets helps create more VLAN space. The added tag provides an VLAN ID to each customer, this ensures private and segregated network traffic. The VLAN ID tag is assigned to a customer port in the service providers network. The designated port then provides additional services to the packets with the double-tags. This allows administrators to expand service to VLAN users. To configure customer VLANs: 1. Click Layer 2 > VLAN > VLAN > Basic Information. The VLAN Basic Information Page opens.

Configuring Customer VLANs


This section contains information for configuring Customer VLANs using the Web Interface and using the Command Line Interface. This section includes the following topics: Configuring Customer VLANs Using the Web Interface Configuring Customer VLANs using the CLI

Configuring Customer VLANs Using the Web Interface


Customer VLANs are configured using QinQ. QinQ tagging allows network managers to add an additional tag to previously tagged packets. Adding additional tags to the packets helps create more VLAN space. The added tag provides an VLAN ID to each customer, this ensures private and segregated network traffic. The VLAN ID tag is assigned to a customer port in the service providers network. The designated port then provides additional services to the packets with the double-tags. This allows administrators to expand service to VLAN users.

Appendix C. Troubleshooting
Problems Accessing the Management Interface
Troubleshooting Chart Symptom Cannot connect using Telnet, Web browser, or SNMP software Action Be sure the switch is powered up. Check network cabling between the management station and the switch. Check that you have a valid network connection to the switch and that the port you are using has not been disabled. Be sure you have configured the VLAN interface through which the management station is connected with a valid IP address, subnet mask and default gateway. Be sure the management station has an IP address in the same subnet as the switchs IP interface to which it is connected. If you are trying to connect to the switch via the IP address for a tagged VLAN group, your management station, and the ports connecting intermediate switches in the network, must be configured with the appropriate tag. If you cannot connect using Telnet, you may have exceeded the maximum number of concurrent Telnet/SSH sessions permitted. Try connecting again at a later time.

Cannot access the on-board Be sure you have set the terminal emulator program to VT100 compatible, configuration program via a 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and the baud rate set to any of the serial port connection following (9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200 bps). Check that the null-modem serial cable conforms to the pin-out connections provided in the Installation Guide. Forgot or lost the password Contact your local distributor.

725

Using System Logs


If a fault does occur, refer to the Installation Guide to ensure that the problem you encountered is actually caused by the switch. If the problem appears to be caused by the switch, follow these steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Enable logging. Set the error messages reported to include all categories. Designate the SNMP host that is to receive the error messages. Repeat the sequence of commands or other actions that lead up to the error. Make a list of the commands or circumstances that led to the fault. Also make a list of any error messages displayed. Contact your distributors service engineer.

For example:
Console(config)#logging on Console(config)#logging file debugging Console(config)#snmp-server host 192.168.1.23

726

Appendix D. Glossary
Access Control List (ACL)
ACLs can limit network traffic and restrict access to certain users or devices by checking each packet for certain IP or MAC (i.e., Layer 2) information.

Boot Protocol (BOOTP) BOOTP is used to provide bootup information for network devices, including IP
address information, the address of the TFTP server that contains the devices system files, and the name of the boot file.

Class of Service (CoS)


CoS is supported by prioritizing packets based on the required level of service, and then placing them in the appropriate output queue. Data is transmitted from the queues using weighted round-robin service to enforce priority service and prevent blockage of lower-level queues. Priority may be set according to the port default, the packets priority bit (in the VLAN tag), TCP/UDP port number, IP Precedence bit, or DSCP priority bit.

Differentiated Services Code Point Service (DSCP)


DSCP uses a six-bit tag to provide for up to 64 different forwarding behaviors. Based on network policies, different kinds of traffic can be marked for different kinds of forwarding. The DSCP bits are mapped to the Class of Service categories, and then into the output queues.

Domain Name Service (DNS)


A system used for translating host names for network nodes into IP addresses.

Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP)


Provides a framework for passing configuration information to hosts on a TCP/IP network. DHCP is based on the Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP), adding the capability of automatic allocation of reusable network addresses and additional configuration options.

Extensible Authentication Protocol over LAN (EAPOL)


EAPOL is a client authentication protocol used by this switch to verify the network access rights for any device that is plugged into the switch. A user name and password is requested by the switch, and then passed to an authentication server (e.g., RADIUS) for verification. EAPOL is implemented as part of the IEEE 802.1x Port Authentication standard.

727

GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP)


Defines a way for switches to exchange VLAN information in order to register necessary VLAN members on ports along the Spanning Tree so that VLANs defined in each switch can work automatically over a Spanning Tree network.

Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP)


GARP is a protocol that can be used by endstations and switches to register and propagate multicast group membership information in a switched environment so that multicast data frames are propagated only to those parts of a switched LAN containing registered endstations. Formerly called Group Address Registration Protocol.

Generic Multicast Registration Protocol (GMRP)


GMRP allows network devices to register end stations with multicast groups. GMRP requires that any participating network devices or end stations comply with the IEEE 802.1p standard.

Group Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP)


See Generic Attribute Registration Protocol.

IEEE 802.1D
Specifies a general method for the operation of MAC bridges, including the Spanning Tree Protocol.

IEEE 802.1Q
VLAN TaggingDefines Ethernet frame tags which carry VLAN information. It allows switches to assign endstations to different virtual LANs, and defines a standard way for VLANs to communicate across switched networks.

IEEE 802.1p
An IEEE standard for providing quality of service (QoS) in Ethernet networks. The standard uses packet tags that define up to eight traffic classes and allows switches to transmit packets based on the tagged priority value.

IEEE 802.1s
An IEEE standard for the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) which provides independent spanning trees for VLAN groups.

IEEE 802.1x
Port Authentication controls access to the switch ports by requiring users to first enter a user ID and password for authentication.

IEEE 802.3ac
Defines frame extensions for VLAN tagging.

728

IEEE 802.3x
Defines Ethernet frame start/stop requests and timers used for flow control on full-duplex links.

IGMP Snooping
Listening to IGMP Query and IGMP Report packets transferred between IP Multicast Routers and IP Multicast host groups to identify IP Multicast group members.

IGMP Query
On each subnetwork, one IGMP-capable device will act as the querier that is, the device that asks all hosts to report on the IP multicast groups they wish to join or to which they already belong. The elected querier will be the device with the lowest IP address in the subnetwork.

Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)


A protocol through which hosts can register with their local router for multicast services. If there is more than one multicast switch/router on a given subnetwork, one of the devices is made the querier and assumes responsibility for keeping track of group membership.

In-Band Management
Management of the network from a station attached directly to the network.

IP Multicast Filtering
A process whereby this switch can pass multicast traffic along to participating hosts.

IP Precedence
The Type of Service (ToS) octet in the IPv4 header includes three precedence bits defining eight different priority levels ranging from highest priority for network control packets to lowest priority for routine traffic. The eight values are mapped one-to-one to the Class of Service categories by default, but may be configured differently to suit the requirements for specific network applications.

Layer 2
Data Link layer in the ISO 7-Layer Data Communications Protocol. This is related directly to the hardware interface for network devices and passes on traffic based on MAC addresses.

Link Aggregation
See Port Trunk.

Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP)


Allows ports to automatically negotiate a trunked link with LACP-configured ports on another device.

729

Management Information Base (MIB)


An acronym for Management Information Base. It is a set of database objects that contains information about a specific device.

MD5 Message Digest Algorithm


An algorithm that is used to create digital signatures. It is intended for use with 32 bit machines and is safer than the MD4 algorithm, which has been broken. MD5 is a one-way hash function, meaning that it takes a message and converts it into a fixed string of digits, also called a message digest.

Multicast Switching
A process whereby the switch filters incoming multicast frames for services for which no attached host has registered, or forwards them to all ports contained within the designated multicast VLAN group.

Network Time Protocol (NTP)


NTP provides the mechanisms to synchronize time across the network. The time servers operate in a hierarchical-master-slave configuration in order to synchronize local clocks within the subnet and to national time standards via wire or radio.

Out-of-Band Management
Management of the network from a station not attached to the network.

Port Authentication
See IEEE 802.1x.

Port Mirroring
A method whereby data on a target port is mirrored to a monitor port for troubleshooting with a logic analyzer or RMON probe. This allows data on the target port to be studied unobstructively.

Port Trunk
Defines a network link aggregation and trunking method which specifies how to create a single high-speed logical link that combines several lower-speed physical links.

Private VLANs
Private VLANs provide port-based security and isolation between ports within the assigned VLAN. Data traffic on downlink ports can only be forwarded to, and from, uplink ports.

Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS) RADIUS is a logon authentication protocol that uses software running on a central
server to control access to RADIUS-compliant devices on the network.

730

Remote Monitoring (RMON)


RMON provides comprehensive network monitoring capabilities. It eliminates the polling required in standard SNMP, and can set alarms on a variety of traffic conditions, including specific error types.

Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) RSTP reduces the convergence time for network topology changes to about 10% of
that required by the older IEEE 802.1D STP standard.

Secure Shell (SSH)


A secure replacement for remote access functions, including Telnet. SSH can authenticate users with a cryptographic key, and encrypt data connections between management clients and the switch.

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)


A standard host-to-host mail transport protocol that operates over TCP, port 25.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)


The application protocol in the Internet suite of protocols which offers network management services.

Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) SNTP allows a device to set its internal clock based on periodic updates from a
Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. Updates can be requested from a specific NTP server, or can be received via broadcasts sent by NTP servers.

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)


A technology that checks your network for any loops. A loop can often occur in complicated or backup linked network systems. Spanning Tree detects and directs data along the shortest available path, maximizing the performance and efficiency of the network.

Telnet
Defines a remote communication facility for interfacing to a terminal device over TCP/IP.

Terminal Access Controller Access Control System Plus (TACACS+) TACACS+ is a logon authentication protocol that uses software running on a central
server to control access to TACACS-compliant devices on the network.

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)


Protocol suite that includes TCP as the primary transport protocol, and IP as the network layer protocol.

731

Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)


A TCP/IP protocol commonly used for software downloads.

User Datagram Protocol (UDP) UDP provides a datagram mode for packet-switched communications. It uses IP as
the underlying transport mechanism to provide access to IP-like services. UDP packets are delivered just like IP packets connection-less datagrams that may be discarded before reaching their targets. UDP is useful when TCP would be too complex, too slow, or just unnecessary.

Virtual LAN (VLAN)


A Virtual LAN is a collection of network nodes that share the same collision domain regardless of their physical location or connection point in the network. A VLAN serves as a logical workgroup with no physical barriers, and allows users to share information and resources as though located on the same LAN.

XModem
A protocol used to transfer files between devices. Data is grouped in 128-byte blocks and error-corrected.
