About this Guide 1 This guide describes the protocols and features the Dell Networking Operating System (OS) supports and provides configuration instructions and examples for implementing them. The S4048–ON platform is available with Dell Networking OS version 9.7.(0.1) and beyond.S4048–ON stacking is supported with Dell Networking OS version 9.7(0.1) and beyond. Though this guide contains information on protocols, it is not intended to be a complete reference.
2 Configuration Fundamentals The Dell Networking Operating System (OS) command line interface (CLI) is a text-based interface you can use to configure interfaces and protocols. The CLI is largely the same for each platform except for some commands and command outputs. The CLI is structured in modes for security and management purposes. Different sets of commands are available in each mode, and you can limit user access to modes using privilege levels.
The Dell Networking OS CLI is divided into three major mode levels: • EXEC mode is the default mode and has a privilege level of 1, which is the most restricted level. Only a limited selection of commands is available, notably the show commands, which allow you to view system information. • EXEC Privilege mode has commands to view configurations, clear counters, manage configuration files, run diagnostics, and enable or disable debug operations. The privilege level is 15, which is unrestricted.

3 Getting Started This chapter describes how you start configuring your system. When you power up the chassis, the system performs a power-on self test (POST) and system then loads the Dell Networking Operating System. Boot messages scroll up the terminal window during this process. No user interaction is required if the boot process proceeds without interruption. When the boot process completes, the system status LEDs remain online (green) and the console monitor displays the EXEC mode prompt.
Accessing the Console Port To access the console port, follow these steps: For the console port pinout, refer to Accessing the RJ-45 Console Port with a DB-9 Adapter. 1. Install an RJ-45 copper cable into the console port.Use a rollover (crossover) cable to connect the S4810 console port to a terminal server. 2. Connect the other end of the cable to the DTE terminal server. 3.
Entering CLI commands Using an SSH Connection You can run CLI commands by entering any one of the following syntax to connect to a switch using the preconfigured user credentials using SSH: ssh username@hostname or echo | ssh admin@hostname The SSH server transmits the terminal commands to the CLI shell and the results are displayed on the screen non-interactively.
Default Configuration Although a version of Dell Networking OS is pre-loaded onto the system, the system is not configured when you power up the first time (except for the default hostname, which is Dell). You must configure the system using the CLI. Configuring a Host Name The host name appears in the prompt. The default host name is Dell. • Host names must start with a letter and end with a letter or digit. • Characters within the string can be letters, digits, and hyphens.
ip address ip-address/mask 3. • ip-address: an address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D). • mask: a subnet mask in /prefix-length format (/ xx). Enable the interface. INTERFACE mode no shutdown Configure a Management Route Define a path from the system to the network from which you are accessing the system remotely. Management routes are separate from IP routes and are only used to manage the system through the management port. To configure a management route, use the following command.
To configure an enable password, use the following command. • Create a password to access EXEC Privilege mode. CONFIGURATION mode enable [password | secret] [level level] [encryption-type] password – level: is the privilege level, is 15 by default, and is not required – encryption-type: specifies how you are inputting the password, is 0 by default, and is not required. * 0 is for inputting the password in clear text. * 7 is for inputting a password that is already encrypted using a DES hash.
• You may not copy a file from one location to the same location. • When copying to a server, you can only use a hostname if a domain name server (DNS) server is configured. Example of Copying a File to an FTP Server Dell#copy flash://Dell-EF-8.2.1.0.bin ftp://myusername:mypassword@10.10.10.10/ /Dell/Dell-EF-8.2.1.
Important Points to Remember • You cannot copy a file from one remote system to another. • You cannot copy a file from one location to the same location. • When copying to a server, you can only use a hostname if a domain name server (DNS) server is configured. Example of Copying a File to current File System Dell#copy tftp://10.16.127.
• Save the running-configuration to the startup-configuration on the internal flash of the primary RPM. EXEC Privilege mode copy running-config startup-config Save the running-configuration to an FTP server. • EXEC Privilege mode copy running-config ftp:// username:password@{hostip | hostname}/filepath/ filename Save the running-configuration to a TFTP server. • EXEC Privilege mode copy running-config tftp://{hostip | hostname}/ filepath/filename Save the running-configuration to an SCP server.

In stacking scenario, it will also take care of syncing it to all the standby and member units.
EXEC Privilege mode cd directory Enabling Software Features on Devices Using a Command Option This capability to activate software applications or components on a device using a command is supported on this platform. Starting with Release 9.4(0.0), you can enable or disable specific software features or applications that need to run on a device by using a command attribute in the CLI interface.
View Command History The command-history trace feature captures all commands entered by all users of the system with a time stamp and writes these messages to a dedicated trace log buffer. The system generates a trace message for each executed command. No password information is saved to the file. To view the command-history trace, use the show command-history command.
2. Go on to the Dell Networking system and copy the software image to the flash drive, using the copy command. 3. Run the verify {md5 | sha256} [ flash://]img-file [hash-value] command. For example, verify sha256 flash://FTOS-SE-9.5.0.0.bin 4. Compare the generated hash value to the expected hash value published on the iSupport page.
In the Dell Networking OS release 9.8(0.0), HTTP services are enhanced to support the VRF-aware functionality. If you want the HTTP server to use a VRF table that is attached to an interface, configure that HTTP server to use a specific routing table. You can use the ip http vrf command to inform the HTTP server to use a specific routing table. After you configure this setting, the VRF table is used to look up the destination address.
Management 4 This chapter describes the different protocols or services used to manage the Dell Networking system. Configuring Privilege Levels Privilege levels restrict access to commands based on user or terminal line. There are 16 privilege levels, of which three are pre-defined. The default privilege level is 1. Level Description Level 0 Access to the system begins at EXEC mode, and EXEC mode commands are limited to enable, disable, and exit.
Moving a Command from EXEC Privilege Mode to EXEC Mode To move a command from EXEC Privilege to EXEC mode for a privilege level, use the privilege exec command from CONFIGURATION mode. In the command, specify the privilege level of the user or terminal line and specify all keywords in the command to which you want to allow access. Allowing Access to CONFIGURATION Mode Commands To allow access to CONFIGURATION mode, use the privilege exec level level configure command from CONFIGURATION mode.
• Allow access to INTERFACE, LINE, ROUTE-MAP, and/or ROUTER mode. Specify all the keywords in the command. CONFIGURATION mode • privilege configure level level {interface | line | route-map | router} {command-keyword ||...|| command-keyword} Allow access to a CONFIGURATION, INTERFACE, LINE, ROUTE-MAP, and/or ROUTER mode command. CONFIGURATION mode privilege {configure |interface | line | route-map | router} level level {command ||...

• Disable logging to the logging buffer. CONFIGURATION mode • no logging buffer Disable logging to terminal lines. CONFIGURATION mode • no logging monitor Disable console logging. CONFIGURATION mode no logging console Audit and Security Logs This section describes how to configure, display, and clear audit and security logs.
• Adding and deleting of users. • User access and configuration changes to the security and crypto parameters (not the key information but the crypto configuration) Important Points to Remember When you enabled RBAC and extended logging: • Only the system administrator user role can execute this command. • The system administrator and system security administrator user roles can view security events and system events.
Configuring Logging Format To display syslog messages in a RFC 3164 or RFC 5424 format, use the logging version {0 | 1} command in CONFIGURATION mode. By default, the system log version is set to 0.
To view any changes made, use the show running-config logging command in EXEC privilege mode. Setting Up a Secure Connection to a Syslog Server You can use reverse tunneling with the port forwarding to securely connect to a syslog server. Figure 2. Setting Up a Secure Connection to a Syslog Server Pre-requisites To configure a secure connection from the switch to the syslog server: 1. On the switch, enable the SSH server Dell(conf)#ip ssh server enable 2.
In the following example the syslog server IP address is 10.156.166.48 and the listening port is 5141. The switch IP address is 10.16.131.141 and the listening port is 5140 ssh -R 5140:10.156.166.48:5141 admin@10.16.131.141 -nNf 3. Configure logging to a local host. locahost is “127.0.0.1” or “::1”. If you do not, the system displays an error when you attempt to enable role-based only AAA authorization. Dell(conf)# logging localhost tcp port Dell(conf)#logging 127.0.0.
login statistics enable After enabling login statistics, the system stores the login activity details for the last 30 days. 2. (Optional) Configure the number of days for which the system stores the user login statistics. The range is from 1 to 30. CONFIGURATION mode login statistics time-period days Example of Configuring Login Activity Tracking The following example enables login activity tracking. The system stores the login activity details for the last 30 days.
Unsuccessful login attempt(s) in last 7 day(s): 0 -----------------------------------------------------------------Example of the show login statistics user user-id command The show login statistics user user-id command displays the successful and failed login details of a specific user in the last 30 days or the custom defined time period.
Enabling the System to Clear Existing Sessions To enable the system to clear existing login sessions, follow this procedure: • Use the following command. CONFIGURATION mode login concurrent-session clear-line enable Example of Enabling the System to Clear Existing Sessions The following example enables you to clear your existing login sessions.
Configuration Task List for System Log Management There are two configuration tasks for system log management: • Disable System Logging • Send System Messages to a Syslog Server Disabling System Logging By default, logging is enabled and log messages are sent to the logging buffer, all terminal lines, the console, and the syslog servers. To disable system logging, use the following commands. • Disable all logging except on the console.
– Add line on a 4.1 BSD UNIX system. local7.debugging /var/log/ftos.log – Add line on a 5.7 SunOS UNIX system. local7.debugging /var/adm/ftos.log In the previous lines, local7 is the logging facility level and debugging is the severity level. Changing System Logging Settings You can change the default settings of the system logging by changing the severity level and the storage location. The default is to log all messages up to debug level, that is, all system messages.
To view the logging configuration, use the show running-config logging command in privilege mode, as shown in the example for Configure a UNIX Logging Facility Level. Display the Logging Buffer and the Logging Configuration To display the current contents of the logging buffer and the logging settings for the system, use the show logging command in EXEC privilege mode. When RBAC is enabled, the security logs are filtered based on the user roles.
CONFIGURATION mode logging facility [facility-type] – auth (for authorization messages) – cron (for system scheduler messages) – daemon (for system daemons) – kern (for kernel messages) – local0 (for local use) – local1 (for local use) – local2 (for local use) – local3 (for local use) – local4 (for local use) – local5 (for local use) – local6 (for local use) – local7 (for local use) – lpr (for line printer system messages) – mail (for mail system messages) – news (for USENET news messages) – sys9 (system us
Synchronizing Log Messages You can configure Dell Networking OS to filter and consolidate the system messages for a specific line by synchronizing the message output. Only the messages with a severity at or below the set level appear. This feature works on the terminal and console connections available on the system. 1. Enter LINE mode.
To disable time stamping on syslog messages, use the no service timestamps [log | debug] command. File Transfer Services With Dell Networking OS, you can configure the system to transfer files over the network using the file transfer protocol (FTP). One FTP application is copying the system image files over an interface on to the system; however, FTP is not supported on virtual local area network (VLAN) interfaces.
• Specify the directory for users using FTP to reach the system. CONFIGURATION mode ftp-server topdir dir • The default is the internal flash directory. Specify a user name for all FTP users and configure either a plain text or encrypted password. CONFIGURATION mode ftp-server username username password [encryption-type] password Configure the following optional and required parameters: – username: enter a text string. – encryption-type: enter 0 for plain text or 7 for encrypted text.
Terminal Lines You can access the system remotely and restrict access to the system by creating user profiles. Terminal lines on the system provide different means of accessing the system. The console line (console) connects you through the console port in the route processor modules (RPMs). The virtual terminal lines (VTYs) connect you through Telnet to the system. The auxiliary line (aux) connects secondary devices such as modems.
ip access-list extended testdeny seq 10 deny ip 30.1.1.
LINE mode password Example of Terminal Line Authentication In the following example, VTY lines 0-2 use a single authentication method, line.
Using Telnet to get to Another Network Device To telnet to another device, use the following commands. NOTE: The device allows 120 Telnet sessions per minute, allowing the login and logout of 10 Telnet sessions, 12 times in a minute. If the system reaches this non-practical limit, the Telnet service is stopped for 10 minutes. You can use console and SSH service to access the system during downtime. • Telnet to a device with an IPv4 or IPv6 address.
Viewing the Configuration Lock Status If you attempt to enter CONFIGURATION mode when another user has locked it, you may view which user has control of CONFIGURATION mode using the show configuration lock command from EXEC Privilege mode. You can then send any user a message using the send command from EXEC Privilege mode. Alternatively, you can clear any line using the clear command from EXEC Privilege mode. If you clear a console session, the user is returned to EXEC mode.
• When you restore the units in standalone mode, the units remain in standalone mode after the restoration. • After the restore is complete, the units power cycle immediately. The following example illustrates the restore factory-defaults command to restore the factory default settings.
2. Hit any key to abort the boot process. You enter uBoot immediately, the => prompt indicates success. (during bootup) press any key 3. Assign the new location to the Dell Networking OS image it uses when the system reloads. uBoot mode => setenv primary_boot f10boot Boot variable (f10boot) can take the following values: 4. • flash0 — to boot from flash partition A. • flash1 — to boot from flash partition B. • tftp://server-ip/image-file-name — to boot from the network.
802.1ag 5 Ethernet operations, administration, and maintenance (OAM) are a set of tools used to install, monitor, troubleshoot, and manage Ethernet infrastructure deployments. Ethernet OAM consists of three main areas: • Service layer OAM — IEEE 802.1ag connectivity fault management (CFM) • Link layer OAM — IEEE 802.
In addition to providing end-to-end OAM in native Layer 2 Ethernet Service Provider/Metro networks, you can also use CFM to manage and troubleshoot any Layer 2 network including enterprise, datacenter, and cluster networks. Maintenance Domains Connectivity fault management (CFM) divides a network into hierarchical maintenance domains, as shown in the following illustration. A CFM maintenance domain is a management space on a network that a single management entity owns and operates.
Figure 4. Maintenance Points Maintenance End Points A maintenance end point (MEP) is a logical entity that marks the end point of a domain. There are two types of MEPs defined in 802.1ag for an 802.1 bridge: • Up-MEP — monitors the forwarding path internal to a bridge on the customer or provider edge. On Dell Networking systems, the internal forwarding path is effectively the switch fabric and forwarding engine. • Down-MEP — monitors the forwarding path external another bridge.
Implementation Information The S-Series has a single MAC address for all physical/LAG interfaces and hence only one MEP is allowed per MA (per VLAN or per MD level). Configuring the CFM To configure the CFM, follow these steps: 1. Configure the ecfmacl CAM region using the cam-acl command. 2. Enable Ethernet CFM. 3. Create a Maintenance Domain. 4.

To display the MEP and MIP databases, use the following commands. • Display the MEP Database.
• discover MEPs and MIPs within a maintenance domain • detect loss of connectivity between MEPs • detect misconfiguration, such as VLAN ID mismatch between MEPs • detect unauthorized MEPs in a maintenance domain CCMs are multicast Ethernet frames sent at regular intervals from each MEP. They have a destination address based on the MD level (01:80:C2:00:00:3X where X is the MD level of the transmitting MEP from 0 to 7). All MEPs must listen to these multicast MAC addresses and process these messages.

802.1X 6 802.1X is an IEEE Standard for port security. A device connected to a port that is enabled with 802.1X is disallowed from sending or receiving packets on the network until its identity can be verified (through a username and password, for example). 802.1X employs Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) to transfer a device’s credentials to an authentication server (typically RADIUS) using a mandatory intermediary network access device, in this case, a Dell Networking switch.
Figure 8. EAP Frames Encapsulated in Ethernet and RADUIS The authentication process involves three devices: • The device attempting to access the network is the supplicant. The supplicant is not allowed to communicate on the network until the authenticator authorizes the port. It can only communicate with the authenticator in response to 802.1X requests. • The device with which the supplicant communicates is the authenticator. The authenticator is the gate keeper of the network.
3. The authenticator decapsulates the EAP response from the EAPOL frame, encapsulates it in a RADIUS Access-Request frame and forwards the frame to the authentication server. 4. The authentication server replies with an Access-Challenge frame. The Access-Challenge frame requests the supplicant to prove that it is who it claims to be, using a specified method (an EAPMethod). The challenge is translated and forwarded to the supplicant by the authenticator. 5.
EAP over RADIUS 802.1X uses RADIUS to shuttle EAP packets between the authenticator and the authentication server, as defined in RFC 3579. EAP messages are encapsulated in RADIUS packets as a type of attribute in Type, Length, Value (TLV) format. The Type value for EAP messages is 79. Figure 10. EAP Over RADIUS RADIUS Attributes for 802.1X Support Dell Networking systems include the following RADIUS attributes in all 802.
Important Points to Remember • Dell Networking OS supports 802.1X with EAP-MD5, EAP-OTP, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, PEAPv0, PEAPv1, and MS-CHAPv2 with PEAP. • All platforms support only RADIUS as the authentication server. • If the primary RADIUS server becomes unresponsive, the authenticator begins using a secondary RADIUS server, if configured. • 802.1X is not supported on port-channels or port-channel members. Enabling 802.1X Enable 802.1X globally. Figure 11. 802.1X Enabled 1. Enable 802.1X globally.

INTERFACE mode dot1x authentication Examples of Verifying that 802.1X is Enabled Globally and on an Interface Verify that 802.1X is enabled globally and at the interface level using the show running-config | find dot1x command from EXEC Privilege mode. In the following example, the bold lines show that 802.1X is enabled.
Configuring Request Identity Re-Transmissions When the authenticator sends a Request Identity frame and the supplicant does not respond, the authenticator waits for 30 seconds and then re-transmits the frame. The amount of time that the authenticator waits before re-transmitting and the maximum number of times that the authenticator re-transmits can be configured.
Example of Configuring and Verifying Port Authentication The following example shows configuration information for a port for which the authenticator retransmits an EAP Request Identity frame: • • after 90 seconds and a maximum of 10 times for an unresponsive supplicant re-transmits an EAP Request Identity frame The bold lines show the new re-transmit interval, new quiet period, and new maximum re-transmissions.

to be authenticated, but still need access to the network. Also, some dumb-terminals, such as network printers, do not have 802.1X capability and therefore cannot authenticate themselves. To be able to connect such devices, they must be allowed access the network without compromising network security. The Guest VLAN 802.1X extension addresses this limitation with regard to non-802.1X capable devices and the Authentication-fail VLAN 802.1X extension addresses this limitation with regard to external users.

7 Access Control List (ACL) VLAN Groups and Content Addressable Memory (CAM) This chapter describes the access control list (ACL) virtual local area network (VLAN) group and content addressable memory (CAM) enhancements. Optimizing CAM Utilization During the Attachment of ACLs to VLANs To minimize the number of entries in CAM, enable and configure the ACL CAM feature. Use this feature when you apply ACLs to a VLAN (or a set of VLANs) and when you apply ACLs to a set of ports.
• The egress ACL is applied or removed from the group and the group contains VLAN members. • VLAN members are added or deleted from a VLAN, which itself is a group member. • A line card returns to the active state after going down and this line card contains a VLAN that is a member of an ACL group. • The ACL VLAN group is deleted and it contains VLAN members. The ACL manager does not notify the ACL agent in the following cases: • The ACL VLAN group is created.
space. Enable optimization using the optimized option in the ip access-group command. This option is not valid for VLAN and link aggregation group (LAG) interfaces. Configuring ACL VLAN Groups and Configuring FP Blocks for VLAN Parameters This section describes how to optimize CAM blocks by configuring ACL VLAN groups that you can attach to VLAN interfaces. It also describes how to configure FP blocks for different VLAN operations.
Group Name : HostGroup Egress IP Acl : Group5 Vlan Members : 1,1000 Dell# Configuring FP Blocks for VLAN Parameters To allocate the number of FP blocks for the various VLAN processes on the system, use the cam-aclvlan command. To reset the number of FP blocks to the default, use the no version of this command. By default, 0 groups are allocated for the ACL in VLAN contentaware processor (VCAP). ACL VLAN groups or CAM optimization is not enabled by default.

To support ACL CAM optimization, the CAM carving feature is enhanced. A total of four VCAP groups are present: two fixed groups and two dynamic groups.
Access Control Lists (ACLs) 8 This chapter describes access control lists (ACLs), prefix lists, and route-maps. At their simplest, access control lists (ACLs), prefix lists, and route-maps permit or deny traffic based on MAC and/or IP addresses. This chapter describes implementing IP ACLs, IP prefix lists and route-maps. For MAC ACLS, refer to Layer 2.
• Destination IP address • Source TCP port number • Destination TCP port number • Source UDP port number • Destination UDP port number For more information about ACL options, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Guide. For extended ACL, TCP, and UDP filters, you can match criteria on specific or ranges of TCP or UDP ports. For extended ACL TCP filters, you can also match criteria on established TCP sessions. When creating an access list, the sequence of the filters is important.
Test CAM Usage This command applies to both IPv4 and IPv6 CAM profiles, but is best used when verifying QoS optimization for IPv6 ACLs. To determine whether sufficient ACL CAM space is available to enable a service-policy, use this command. To verify the actual CAM space required, create a class map with all the required ACL rules, then execute the test cam-usage command in Privilege mode. The following example shows the output when executing this command.
Determine the Order in which ACLs are Used to Classify Traffic When you link class-maps to queues using the service-queue command, Dell Networking OS matches the class-maps according to queue priority (queue numbers closer to 0 have lower priorities). As shown in the following example, class-map cmap2 is matched against ingress packets before cmap1. ACLs acl1 and acl2 have overlapping rules because the address range 20.1.1.0/24 is within 20.0.0.0/8.
Configuration Task List for Route Maps Configure route maps in ROUTE-MAP mode and apply the maps in various commands in ROUTER RIP and ROUTER OSPF modes. The following list includes the configuration tasks for route maps, as described in the following sections.
tag 35 level stub-area Dell# To delete all instances of that route map, use the no route-map map-name command. To delete just one instance, add the sequence number to the command syntax. Dell(conf)#no route-map zakho 10 Dell(conf)#end Dell#show route-map route-map zakho, permit, sequence 20 Match clauses: interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 Set clauses: tag 35 level stub-area Dell# The following example shows a route map with multiple instances.
Also, if there are different instances of the same route-map, then it’s sufficient if a permit match happens in any instance of that route-map. Dell(conf)#route-map force permit 10 Dell(config-route-map)#match tag 1000 Dell(config-route-map)#match metric 2000 In the following example, instance 10 permits the route having a tag value of 1000 and instances 20 and 30 deny the route having a tag value of 1000.
• match ipv6 address prefix-list-name Match next-hop routes specified in a prefix list (IPv4). CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode • match ip next-hop {access-list-name | prefix-list prefix-list-name} Match next-hop routes specified in a prefix list (IPv6). CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode • match ipv6 next-hop {access-list-name | prefix-list prefix-list-name} Match source routes specified in a prefix list (IPv4).
• Specify an OSPF area or ISIS level for redistributed routes. CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode • set level {backbone | level-1 | level-1-2 | level-2 | stub-area} Specify a value for the BGP route’s LOCAL_PREF attribute. CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode • set local-preference value Specify a value for redistributed routes. CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode • set metric {+ | - | metric-value} Specify an OSPF or ISIS type for redistributed routes.
Use the redistribute command in OSPF, RIP, ISIS, and BGP to set some of these attributes for routes that are redistributed into those protocols. Route maps add to that redistribution capability by allowing you to match specific routes and set or change more attributes when redistributing those routes. In the following example, the redistribute command calls the route map static ospf to redistribute only certain static routes into OSPF.
NOTE: If you configure the continue clause without specifying a module, the next sequential module is processed. Example of Using the continue Clause in a Route Map ! route-map test permit 10 match commu comm-list1 set community 1:1 1:2 1:3 set as-path prepend 1 2 3 4 5 continue 30! IP Fragment Handling Dell Networking OS supports a configurable option to explicitly deny IP fragmented packets, particularly second and subsequent packets.
Dell(conf-ext-nacl)#permit ip any 10.1.1.1/32 Dell(conf-ext-nacl) Layer 4 ACL Rules Examples The following examples show the ACL commands for Layer 4 packet filtering. Permit an ACL line with L3 information only, and the fragments keyword is present: If a packet’s L3 information matches the L3 information in the ACL line, the packet's FO is checked. • If a packet's FO > 0, the packet is permitted. • If a packet's FO = 0, the next ACL entry is processed.
Configure a Standard IP ACL To configure an ACL, use commands in IP ACCESS LIST mode and INTERFACE mode. For a complete list of all the commands related to IP ACLs, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Line Interface Reference Guide. To set up extended ACLs, refer to Configure an Extended IP ACL. A standard IP ACL uses the source IP address as its match criterion. 1. Enter IP ACCESS LIST mode by naming a standard IP access list. CONFIGURATION mode ip access-list standard access-listname 2.
number based on the order in which the filters are configured. The software assigns filters in multiples of 5. Configuring a Standard IP ACL Filter If you are creating a standard ACL with only one or two filters, you can let Dell Networking OS assign a sequence number based on the order in which the filters are configured. The software assigns filters in multiples of five. 1. Configure a standard IP ACL and assign it a unique name. CONFIGURATION mode ip access-list standard access-list-name 2.
Configure an Extended IP ACL Extended IP ACLs filter on source and destination IP addresses, IP host addresses, TCP addresses, TCP host addresses, UDP addresses, and UDP host addresses. The traffic passes through the filter in the order of the filter’s sequence and hence you can configure the extended IP ACL by first entering IP ACCESS LIST mode, and then assigning a sequence number to the filter.
CONFIG-EXT-NACL mode seq sequence-number {deny | permit} tcp {source mask | any | host ipaddress} [count [byte]] [order] [fragments] Example of the seq Command When you create the filters with a specific sequence number, you can create the filters in any order and the filters are placed in the correct order. NOTE: When assigning sequence numbers to filters, you may have to insert a new filter. To prevent reconfiguring multiple filters, assign sequence numbers in multiples of five or another number.
Example of Viewing Filter Sequence for a Specified Extended ACL Dell(config-ext-nacl)#deny tcp host 123.55.34.0 any Dell(config-ext-nacl)#permit udp 154.44.123.34 0.0.255.255 host 34.6.0.0 Dell(config-ext-nacl)#show config ! ip access-list extended nimule seq 5 deny tcp host 123.55.34.0 any seq 10 permit udp 154.44.0.0 0.0.255.255 host 34.6.0.
Assign an IP ACL to an Interface To pass traffic through a configured IP ACL, assign that ACL to a physical interface, a port channel interface, or a VLAN. The IP ACL is applied to all traffic entering a physical or port channel interface and the traffic is either forwarded or dropped depending on the criteria and actions specified in the ACL. The same ACL may be applied to different interfaces and that changes its functionality.
ip address 10.2.1.100 255.255.255.0 ip access-group nimule in no shutdown Dell(conf-if)# To filter traffic on Telnet sessions, use only standard ACLs in the access-class command. Counting ACL Hits You can view the number of packets matching the ACL by using the count option when creating ACL entries. 1. Create an ACL that uses rules with the count option. Refer to Configure a Standard IP ACL Filter. 2. Apply the ACL as an inbound or outbound ACL on an interface. 3.
Configure Egress ACLs Egress ACLs are applied to line cards and affect the traffic leaving the system. Configuring egress ACLs onto physical interfaces protects the system infrastructure from attack — malicious and incidental — by explicitly allowing only authorized traffic. These system-wide ACLs eliminate the need to apply ACLs onto each interface and achieves the same results. By localizing target traffic, it is a simpler implementation. To restrict egress traffic, use an egress ACL.
Applying Egress Layer 3 ACLs (Control-Plane) By default, packets originated from the system are not filtered by egress ACLs. For example, if you initiate a ping session from the system and apply an egress ACL to block this type of traffic on the interface, the ACL does not affect that ping traffic. The Control Plane Egress Layer 3 ACL feature enhances IP reachability debugging by implementing control-plane ACLs for CPU-generated and CPU-forwarded traffic.
• To permit routes with a mask greater than /20, enter permit x.x.x.x/x ge 20. The following rules apply to prefix lists: • A prefix list without any permit or deny filters allows all routes. • An “implicit deny” is assumed (that is, the route is dropped) for all route prefixes that do not match a permit or deny filter in a configured prefix list. • After a route matches a filter, the filter’s action is applied. No additional filters are applied to the route.
Example of Assigning Sequence Numbers to Filters If you want to forward all routes that do not match the prefix list criteria, configure a prefix list filter to permit all routes (permit 0.0.0.0/0 le 32). The “permit all” filter must be the last filter in your prefix list. To permit the default route only, enter permit 0.0.0.0/0. The following example shows how the seq command orders the filters according to the sequence number assigned.
seq 10 deny 133.0.0.0/8 Dell(conf-nprefixl)# To delete a filter, enter the show config command in PREFIX LIST mode and locate the sequence number of the filter you want to delete, then use the no seq sequence-number command in PREFIX LIST mode. Viewing Prefix Lists To view all configured prefix lists, use the following commands. • Show detailed information about configured prefix lists.
• router rip Apply a configured prefix list to incoming routes. You can specify an interface. If you enter the name of a nonexistent prefix list, all routes are forwarded. CONFIG-ROUTER-RIP mode • distribute-list prefix-list-name in [interface] Apply a configured prefix list to outgoing routes. You can specify an interface or type of route. If you enter the name of a non-existent prefix list, all routes are forwarded.
distribute-list prefix awe in Dell(conf-router_ospf)# ACL Resequencing ACL resequencing allows you to re-number the rules and remarks in an access or prefix list. The placement of rules within the list is critical because packets are matched against rules in sequential order. To order new rules using the current numbering scheme, use resequencing whenever there is no opportunity. For example, the following table contains some rules that are numbered in increments of 1.
Examples of Resequencing ACLs When Remarks and Rules Have the Same Number or Different Numbers Remarks and rules that originally have the same sequence number have the same sequence number after you apply the resequence command. The example shows the resequencing of an IPv4 access-list beginning with the number 2 and incrementing by 2. Dell(config-ext-nacl)# show config ! ip access-list extended test remark 4 XYZ remark 5 this remark corresponds to permit any host 1.1.1.1 seq 5 permit ip any host 1.1.1.
seq 10 permit ip any host 1.1.1.3 seq 12 permit ip any host 1.1.1.4 Route Maps Although route maps are similar to ACLs and prefix lists in that they consist of a series of commands that contain a matching criterion and an action, route maps can modify parameters in matching packets. Implementation Information ACLs and prefix lists can only drop or forward the packet or traffic. Route maps process routes for route redistribution.
packet count for that new interval commences from zero. If ACL logging was stopped previously because the configured threshold has exceeded, it is reenabled for this new interval. The ACL application sends the ACL logging configuration information and other details, such as the action, sequence number, and the ACL parameters that pertain to that ACL entry. The ACL service collects the ACL log and records the following attributes per log message.
• ACL logging is supported for standard and extended IPv4 ACLs, IPv6 ACLs, and standard and extended MAC ACLs. • For ACL entries applied on port-channel interfaces, one match index for every member interface of the port-channel interface is assigned. Therefore, the total available match indices of 251 are split (125 match indices for permit action and 126 match indices for the deny action).
When a packet arrives at a port that is being monitored, the packet is validated against the configured ACL rules. If the packet matches an ACL rule, the system examines the corresponding flow processor to perform the action specified for that port. If the mirroring action is set in the flow processor entry, the destination port details, to which the mirrored information must be sent, are sent to the destination port.

9 Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) BFD is a protocol that is used to rapidly detect communication failures between two adjacent systems. It is a simple and lightweight replacement for existing routing protocol link state detection mechanisms. It also provides a failure detection solution for links on which no routing protocol is used. BFD is a simple hello mechanism. Two neighboring systems running BFD establish a session using a three-way handshake.
NOTE: A session state change from Up to Down is the only state change that triggers a link state change in the routing protocol client. BFD Packet Format Control packets are encapsulated in user datagram protocol (UDP) packets. The following illustration shows the complete encapsulation of a BFD control packet inside an IPv4 packet. Figure 13. BFD in IPv4 Packet Format Field Description Diagnostic Code The reason that the last session failed. State The current local session state.
Field Description system clears the poll bit and sets the final bit in its response. The poll and final bits are used during the handshake and in Demand mode (refer to BFD Sessions). NOTE: Dell Networking OS does not currently support multi-point sessions, Demand mode, authentication, or control plane independence; these bits are always clear. Detection Multiplier The number of packets that must be missed in order to declare a session down. Length The entire length of the BFD packet.
BFD Sessions BFD must be enabled on both sides of a link in order to establish a session. The two participating systems can assume either of two roles: Active The active system initiates the BFD session. Both systems can be active for the same session. Passive The passive system does not initiate a session. It only responds to a request for session initialization from the active system.
3. The active system receives the response from the passive system and changes its session state to Up. It then sends a control packet indicating this state change. This is the third and final part of the handshake. Now the discriminator values have been exchanged and the transmit intervals have been negotiated. 4. The passive system receives the control packet and changes its state to Up. Both systems agree that a session has been established.
receives a Down status notification from the remote system, the session state on the local system changes to Init. Figure 15. Session State Changes Important Points to Remember • Dell Networking OS supports 128 sessions per stack unit at 200 minimum transmit and receive intervals with a multiplier of 3, and 64 sessions at 100 minimum transmit and receive intervals with a multiplier of 4. • Enable BFD on both ends of a link. • Demand mode, authentication, and the Echo function are not supported.
• Configure BFD for OSPFv3 • Configure BFD for IS-IS • Configure BFD for BGP • Configure BFD for VRRP • Configuring Protocol Liveness • Troubleshooting BFD Configure BFD for Physical Ports Configuring BFD for physical ports is supported on the C-Series and E-Series platforms only. BFD on physical ports is useful when you do not enable the routing protocol.
Establishing a Session on Physical Ports To establish a session, enable BFD at the interface level on both ends of the link, as shown in the following illustration. The configuration parameters do not need to match. Figure 16. Establishing a BFD Session on Physical Ports 1. Enter interface mode. CONFIGURATION mode interface 2. Assign an IP address to the interface if one is not already assigned. INTERFACE mode ip address ip-address 3.
Remote Addr: 2.2.2.
Number of messages from IFA about port state change: 0 Number of messages communicated b/w Manager and Agent: 7 Disabling and Re-Enabling BFD BFD is enabled on all interfaces by default, though sessions are not created unless explicitly configured. If you disable BFD, all of the sessions on that interface are placed in an Administratively Down state ( the first message example), and the remote systems are notified of the session state change (the second message example).
Establishing Sessions for Static Routes Sessions are established for all neighbors that are the next hop of a static route. Figure 17. Establishing Sessions for Static Routes To establish a BFD session, use the following command. • Establish BFD sessions for all neighbors that are the next hop of a static route. CONFIGURATION mode ip route bfd Example of the show bfd neighbors Command to Verify Static Routes To verify that sessions have been created for static routes, use the show bfd neighbors command.
CONFIGURATION mode ip route bfd interval milliseconds min_rx milliseconds multiplier value role [active | passive] To view session parameters, use the show bfd neighbors detail command, as shown in the examples in Displaying BFD for BGP Information Disabling BFD for Static Routes If you disable BFD, all static route BFD sessions are torn down. A final Admin Down packet is sent to all neighbors on the remote systems, and those neighbors change to the Down state.
Establishing Sessions with OSPF Neighbors BFD sessions can be established with all OSPF neighbors at once or sessions can be established with all neighbors out of a specific interface. Sessions are only established when the OSPF adjacency is in the Full state. Figure 18. Establishing Sessions with OSPF Neighbors To establish BFD with all OSPF neighbors or with OSPF neighbors on a single interface, use the following commands. • Establish sessions with all OSPF neighbors.

isis bfd all-neighbors disable Configure BFD for BGP In a BGP core network, BFD provides rapid detection of communication failures in BGP fast-forwarding paths between internal BGP (iBGP) and external BGP (eBGP) peers for faster network reconvergence. BFD for BGP is supported on 1GE, 10GE, 40GE, port-channel, and VLAN interfaces. BFD for BGP does not support IPv6 and the BGP multihop feature. Prerequisites Before configuring BFD for BGP, you must first configure the following settings: 1.
The sample configuration shows alternative ways to establish a BFD session with a BGP neighbor: • By establishing BFD sessions with all neighbors discovered by BGP (the bfd all-neighbors command). • By establishing a BFD session with a specified BGP neighbor (the neighbor {ip-address | peergroup-name} bfd command) BFD packets originating from a router are assigned to the highest priority egress queue to minimize transmission delays.
neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} bfd NOTES: 6. • When you establish a BFD session with a specified BGP neighbor or peer group using the neighbor bfd command, the default BFD session parameters are used (interval: 100 milliseconds, min_rx: 100 milliseconds, multiplier: 3 packets, and role: active).
Displaying BFD for BGP Information You can display related information for BFD for BGP. To display information about BFD for BGP sessions on a router, use the following commands and refer to the following examples. • Verify a BFD for BGP configuration. EXEC Privilege mode show running-config bgp • Verify that a BFD for BGP session has been successfully established with a BGP neighbor. A line-byline listing of established BFD adjacencies is displayed.
The following example shows viewing BFD neighbors with full detail.

neighboring interface fails, the BFD agent on the line card notifies the BFD manager, which in turn notifies the VRRP protocol that a link state change occurred. Configuring BFD for VRRP is a three-step process: 1. Enable BFD globally. Refer to Enabling BFD Globally. 2. Establish VRRP BFD sessions with all VRRP-participating neighbors. 3. On the master router, establish a VRRP BFD sessions with the backup routers. Refer to Establishing Sessions with All VRRP Neighbors.
Establishing VRRP Sessions on VRRP Neighbors The master router does not care about the state of the backup router, so it does not participate in any VRRP BFD sessions. VRRP BFD sessions on the backup router cannot change to the UP state. Configure the master router to establish an individual VRRP session the backup router. To establish a session with a particular VRRP neighbor, use the following command. • Establish a session with a particular VRRP neighbor.
To change parameters for all VRRP sessions or for a particular VRRP session, use the following commands. • Change parameters for all VRRP sessions. INTERFACE mode • vrrp bfd all-neighbors interval milliseconds min_rx milliseconds multiplier value role [active | passive] Change parameters for a particular VRRP session.
Troubleshooting BFD To troubleshoot BFD, use the following commands and examples. To control packet field values or to examine the control packets in hexadecimal format, use the following command. • Examine control packet field values. CONFIGURATION mode • debug bfd detail Examine the control packets in hexadecimal format. CONFIGURATION debug bfd packet Examples of Output from the debug bfd Commands The following example shows a three-way handshake using the debug bfd detail command.

10 Border Gateway Protocol IPv4 (BGPv4) This chapter provides a general description of BGPv4 as it is supported in the Dell Networking Operating System (OS). BGP protocol standards are listed in the Standards Compliance chapter. BGP is an external gateway protocol that transmits interdomain routing information within and between autonomous systems (AS). The primary function of the BGP is to exchange network reachability information with other BGP systems.
Figure 22. Internal BGP BGP version 4 (BGPv4) supports classless interdomain routing and aggregate routes and AS paths. BGP is a path vector protocol — a computer network in which BGP maintains the path that updated information takes as it diffuses through the network. Updates traveling through the network and returning to the same node are easily detected and discarded.
Figure 23. BGP Routers in Full Mesh The number of BGP speakers each BGP peer must maintain increases exponentially. Network management quickly becomes impossible. Sessions and Peers When two routers communicate using the BGP protocol, a BGP session is started. The two end-points of that session are Peers. A Peer is also called a Neighbor.
Establish a Session Information exchange between peers is driven by events and timers. The focus in BGP is on the traffic routing policies. In order to make decisions in its operations with other BGP peers, a BGP process uses a simple finite state machine that consists of six states: Idle, Connect, Active, OpenSent, OpenConfirm, and Established. For each peer-to-peer session, a BGP implementation tracks which of these six states the session is in.
Route reflection divides iBGP peers into two groups: client peers and nonclient peers. A route reflector and its client peers form a route reflection cluster. Because BGP speakers announce only the best route for a given prefix, route reflector rules are applied after the router makes its best path decision. • If a route was received from a nonclient peer, reflect the route to all client peers. • If the route was received from a client peer, reflect the route to all nonclient and all client peers.
• Next Hop NOTE: There are no hard coded limits on the number of attributes that are supported in the BGP. Taking into account other constraints such as the Packet Size, maximum number of attributes are supported in BGP. Communities BGP communities are sets of routes with one or more common attributes. Communities are a way to assign common attributes to multiple routes at the same time. NOTE: Duplicate communities are not rejected.
Figure 25. BGP Best Path Selection Best Path Selection Details 1. Prefer the path with the largest WEIGHT attribute. 2. Prefer the path with the largest LOCAL_PREF attribute. 3. Prefer the path that was locally Originated via a network command, redistribute command or aggregate-address command. a. 4. Routes originated with the Originated via a network or redistribute commands are preferred over routes originated with the aggregate-address command.
c. Paths with no MED are treated as “worst” and assigned a MED of 4294967295. 7. Prefer external (EBGP) to internal (IBGP) paths or confederation EBGP paths. 8. Prefer the path with the lowest IGP metric to the BGP if next-hop is selected when synchronization is disabled and only an internal path remains. 9. Dell Networking OS deems the paths as equal and does not perform steps 9 through 11, if the following criteria is met: a.
and AS300. This is advertised to all routers within AS100, causing all BGP speakers to prefer the path through Router B. Figure 26. BGP Local Preference Multi-Exit Discriminators (MEDs) If two ASs connect in more than one place, a multi-exit discriminator (MED) can be used to assign a preference to a preferred path. MED is one of the criteria used to determine the best path, so keep in mind that other criteria may impact selection, as shown in the illustration in Best Path Selection Criteria.
Figure 27. Multi-Exit Discriminators NOTE: Configuring the set metric-type internal command in a route-map advertises the IGP cost as MED to outbound EBGP peers when redistributing routes. The configured set metric value overwrites the default IGP cost. If the outbound route-map uses MED, it overwrites IGP MED. Origin The origin indicates the origin of the prefix, or how the prefix came into BGP. There are three origin codes: IGP, EGP, INCOMPLETE.
*> 7.0.0.0/30 *> 9.2.0.0/16 10.114.8.33 10.114.8.33 0 10 0 0 18508 18508 ? 701 i AS Path The AS path is the list of all ASs that all the prefixes listed in the update have passed through. The local AS number is added by the BGP speaker when advertising to a eBGP neighbor. NOTE: Any update that contains the AS path number 0 is valid. The AS path is shown in the following example. The origin attribute is shown following the AS path information (shown in bold).
Multiprotocol BGP Multiprotocol extensions for BGP (MBGP) is defined in IETF RFC 2858. MBGP allows different types of address families to be distributed in parallel. MBGP allows information about the topology of the IP multicast-capable routers to be exchanged separately from the topology of normal IPv4 and IPv6 unicast routers. It allows a multicast routing topology different from the unicast routing topology.
• If BGP peer outbound route-map has metric configured, all other metrics are overwritten by this configuration. NOTE: When redistributing static, connected, or OSPF routes, there is no metric option. Simply assign the appropriate route-map to the redistributed route. The following table lists some examples of these rules. Table 11.
AS4 Number Representation Dell Networking OS supports multiple representations of 4-byte AS numbers: asplain, asdot+, and asdot. NOTE: The ASDOT and ASDOT+ representations are supported only with the 4-Byte AS numbers feature. If 4-Byte AS numbers are not implemented, only ASPLAIN representation is supported. ASPLAIN is the default method the system uses. With the ASPLAIN notation, a 32-bit binary AS number is translated into a decimal value.
neighbor 172.30.1.250 local-as 65057
Figure 28. Before and After AS Number Migration with Local-AS Enabled When you complete your migration, and you have reconfigured your network with the new information, disable this feature. If you use the “no prepend” option, the Local-AS does not prepend to the updates received from the eBGP peer. If you do not select “no prepend” (the default), the Local-AS is added to the first AS segment in the AS-PATH.
BGP4 Management Information Base (MIB) The FORCE10-BGP4-V2-MIB enhances support for BGP management information base (MIB) with many new simple network management protocol (SNMP) objects and notifications (traps) defined in draft-ietfidr-bgp4-mibv2-05. To see these enhancements, download the MIB from the Dell website. NOTE: For the Force10-BGP4-V2-MIB and other MIB documentation, refer to the Dell iSupport web page.
• High CPU utilization may be observed during an SNMP walk of a large BGP Loc-RIB. • To avoid SNMP timeouts with a large-scale configuration (large number of BGP neighbors and a large BGP Loc-RIB), Dell Networking recommends setting the timeout and retry count values to a relatively higher number. For example, t = 60 or r = 5. • To return all values on an snmpwalk for the f10BgpM2Peer sub-OID, use the -C c option, such as snmpwalk -v 2c -C c -c public.
NOTE: In Dell Networking OS, all newly configured neighbors and peer groups are disabled. To enable a neighbor or peer group, enter the neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} no shutdown command. The following table displays the default values for BGP on Dell Networking OS. Table 12. BGP Default Values Item Default BGP Neighbor Adjacency changes All BGP neighbor changes are logged.

Configuring Peer Groups To configure multiple BGP neighbors at one time, create and populate a BGP peer group. An advantage of peer groups is that members of a peer group inherit the configuration properties of the group and share same update policy. A maximum of 256 peer groups are allowed on the system. Create a peer group by assigning it a name, then adding members to the peer group. After you create a peer group, you can configure route policies for it.
To add an internal BGP (IBGP) neighbor, configure the as-number parameter with the same BGP asnumber configured in the router bgp as-number command. Examples of Viewing and Configuring Peer Groups After you create a peer group, you can use any of the commands beginning with the keyword neighbor to configure that peer group. When you add a peer to a peer group, it inherits all the peer group’s configured parameters.
neighbor 10.1.1.1 shutdown neighbor 10.14.8.60 remote-as 18505 neighbor 10.14.8.60 no shutdown Dell(conf-router_bgp)# To disable a peer group, use the neighbor peer-group-name shutdown command in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode. The configuration of the peer group is maintained, but it is not applied to the peer group members. When you disable a peer group, all the peers within the peer group that are in the ESTABLISHED state move to the IDLE state.
When you enable fall-over, BGP tracks IP reachability to the peer remote address and the peer local address. Whenever either address becomes unreachable (for example, no active route exists in the routing table for peer IPv6 destinations/local address), BGP brings down the session with the peer. The BGP fast fall-over feature is configured on a per-neighbor or peer-group basis and is disabled by default. To enable the BGP fast fall-over feature, use the following command.
Notification History 'Connection Reset' Sent : 5 Recv: 0 Local host: 200.200.200.200, Local port: 65519 Foreign host: 100.100.100.100, Foreign port: 179 Dell# To verify that fast fall-over is enabled on a peer-group, use the show ip bgp peer-group command (shown in bold).

AS-PATH ACLs use regular expressions to search AS_PATH values. AS-PATH ACLs have an “implicit deny.” This means that routes that do not meet a deny or match filter are dropped. To configure an AS-PATH ACL to filter a specific AS_PATH value, use these commands in the following sequence. 1. Assign a name to a AS-PATH ACL and enter AS-PATH ACL mode. CONFIGURATION mode ip as-path access-list as-path-name 2. Enter the parameter to match BGP AS-PATH for filtering.

IETF RFC 1997 defines the COMMUNITY attribute and the predefined communities of INTERNET, NO_EXPORT_SUBCONFED, NO_ADVERTISE, and NO_EXPORT. All BGP routes belong to the INTERNET community. In the RFC, the other communities are defined as follows: • All routes with the NO_EXPORT_SUBCONFED (0xFFFFFF03) community attribute are not sent to CONFED-EBGP or EBGP peers, but are sent to IBGP peers within CONFED-SUB-AS. • All routes with the NO_ADVERTISE (0xFFFFFF02) community attribute must not be advertised.

Create a extended community list and enter the EXTCOMMUNITY-LIST mode. CONFIGURATION mode ip extcommunity-list extcommunity-list-name 2. Two types of extended communities are supported.
Filtering Routes with Community Lists To use an IP community list or IP extended community list to filter routes, you must apply a match community filter to a route map and then apply that route map to a BGP neighbor or peer group. 1. Enter the ROUTE-MAP mode and assign a name to a route map. CONFIGURATION mode route-map map-name [permit | deny] [sequence-number] 2. Configure a match filter for all routes meeting the criteria in the IP community or IP extended community list.
To view the BGP configuration, use the show config command in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode. If you want to remove or add a specific COMMUNITY number from a BGP path, you must create a route map with one or both of the following statements in the route map. Then apply that route map to a BGP neighbor or peer group. 1. Enter ROUTE-MAP mode and assign a name to a route map. CONFIGURATION mode route-map map-name [permit | deny] [sequence-number] 2.
To view BGP routes matching a certain community number or a pre-defined BGP community, use the show ip bgp community command in EXEC Privilege mode. Dell>show ip bgp community BGP table version is 3762622, local router ID is 10.114.8.48 Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i - internal Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete Network * i 3.0.0.0/8 *>i 4.2.49.12/30 * i 4.21.132.0/23 *>i 4.24.118.16/30 *>i 4.24.145.0/30 *>i 4.24.187.12/30 *>i 4.24.202.0/30 *>i 4.25.88.
• Change the LOCAL_PREF value. CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode bgp default local-preference value – value: the range is from 0 to 4294967295. The default is 100. To view the BGP configuration, use the show config command in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode or the show running-config bgp command in EXEC Privilege mode. A more flexible method for manipulating the LOCAL_PREF attribute value is to use a route map. 1. Enter the ROUTE-MAP mode and assign a name to a route map.
• Sets the next hop address. CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode set next-hop ip-address Changing the WEIGHT Attribute To change how the WEIGHT attribute is used, enter the first command. You can also use route maps to change this and other BGP attributes. For example, you can include the second command in a route map to specify the next hop address. • Assign a weight to the neighbor connection. CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} weight weight – weight: the range is from 0 to 65535.
NOTE: You can create inbound and outbound policies. Each of the commands used for filtering has in and out parameters that you must apply. In Dell Networking OS, the order of preference varies depending on whether the attributes are applied for inbound updates or outbound updates.
• out: apply the prefix list to outbound routes. As a reminder, the following are rules concerning prefix lists: • If the prefix list contains no filters, all routes are permitted. • If none of the routes match any of the filters in the prefix list, the route is denied. This action is called an implicit deny. (If you want to forward all routes that do not match the prefix list criteria, you must configure a prefix list filter to permit all routes.
Filtering BGP Routes Using AS-PATH Information To filter routes based on AS-PATH information, use these commands. 1. Create a AS-PATH ACL and assign it a name. CONFIGURATION mode ip as-path access-list as-path-name 2. Create a AS-PATH ACL filter with a deny or permit action. AS-PATH ACL mode {deny | permit} as-regular-expression 3. Return to CONFIGURATION mode. AS-PATH ACL exit 4. Enter ROUTER BGP mode. CONFIGURATION mode router bgp as-number 5.
• Assign an ID to a router reflector cluster. CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode bgp cluster-id cluster-id • You can have multiple clusters in an AS. Configure the local router as a route reflector and the neighbor or peer group identified is the route reflector client. CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} route-reflector-client When you enable a route reflector, Dell Networking OS automatically enables route reflection to all clients.
Configuring BGP Confederations Another way to organize routers within an AS and reduce the mesh for IBGP peers is to configure BGP confederations. As with route reflectors, BGP confederations are recommended only for IBGP peering involving many IBGP peering sessions per router. Basically, when you configure BGP confederations, you break the AS into smaller sub-AS, and to those outside your network, the confederations appear as one AS.

Changing BGP Timers To configure BGP timers, use either or both of the following commands.
To reset a BGP connection using BGP soft reconfiguration, use the clear ip bgp command in EXEC Privilege mode at the system prompt. When you enable soft-reconfiguration for a neighbor and you execute the clear ip bgp soft in command, the update database stored in the router is replayed and updates are reevaluated. With this command, the replay and update process is triggered only if a route-refresh request is not negotiated with the peer.
Route Map Continue The BGP route map continue feature, continue [sequence-number], (in ROUTE-MAP mode) allows movement from one route-map entry to a specific route-map entry (the sequence number). If you do not specify a sequence number, the continue feature moves to the next sequence number (also known as an “implied continue”). If a match clause exists, the continue feature executes only after a successful match occurs. If there are no successful matches, continue is ignored.
• Exchange of IPv4 multicast route information occurs through the use of two new attributes called MP_REACH_NLRI and MP_UNREACH_NLRI, for feasible and withdrawn routes, respectively. • If the peer has not been activated in any AFI/SAFI, the peer remains in Idle state.

Content Addressable Memory (CAM) 11 CAM is a type of memory that stores information in the form of a lookup table. On Dell Networking systems, CAM stores Layer 2 (L2) and Layer 3 (L3) forwarding information, access-lists (ACLs), flows, and routing policies. CAM Allocation CAM Allocation for Ingress To allocate the space for regions such has L2 ingress ACL, IPV4 ingress ACL, IPV6 ingress ACL, IPV4 QoS, L2 QoS, PBR, VRF ACL, and so forth, use the cam-acl command in CONFIGURATION mode.
CAM Allocation Setting vrfv4Acl 0 Openflow 0 fedgovacl 0 NOTE: When you reconfigure CAM allocation, use the nlbclusteracl number command to change the number of NLB ARP entries. The range is from 0 to 2. The default value is 0. At the default value of 0, eight NLB ARP entries are available for use. This platform supports upto 512 CAM entries. Select 1 to configure 256 entries. Select 2 to configure 512 entries.

If you exceed the QoS CAM space, follow these steps. 1. Verify that you have configured a CAM profile that allocates 24 K entries to the IPv4 system flow region. 2. Allocate more entries in the IPv4Flow region to QoS. Dell Networking OS supports the ability to view the actual CAM usage before applying a service-policy. The test cam-usage service-policy command provides this test framework. For more information, refer to Pre-Calculating Available QoS CAM Space.
Control Plane Policing (CoPP) 12 Control plane policing (CoPP) uses access control list (ACL) rules and quality of service (QoS) policies to create filters for a system’s control plane. That filter prevents traffic not specifically identified as legitimate from reaching the system control plane, rate-limits, traffic to an acceptable level.
Figure 31. CoPP Implemented Versus CoPP Not Implemented Configure Control Plane Policing The system can process a maximum of 4200 packets per second (PPS). Protocols that share a single queue may experience flaps if one of the protocols receives a high rate of control traffic even though per protocol CoPP is applied. This happens because queue-based rate limiting is applied first.
queue rate limit value. You must complete queue bandwidth tuning carefully because the system cannot open up to handle any rate, including traffic coming at the line rate. CoPP policies are assigned on a per-protocol or a per-queue basis, and are assigned in CONTROLPLANE mode to each port-pipe. CoPP policies are configured by creating extended ACL rules and specifying rate-limits through QoS policies. The ACLs and QoS policies are assigned as service-policies.
8. Assign the protocol based the service policy on the control plane. Enabling this command on a portpipe automatically enables the ACL and QoS rules creates with the cpu-qos keyword. CONTROL-PLANE mode service-policy rate-limit-protocols Examples of Configuring CoPP for Different Protocols The following example shows creating the IP/IPv6/MAC extended ACL.
The following example shows matching the QoS class map to the QoS policy.

Dell#conf Dell(conf)#qos-policy-input cpuq_1 Dell(conf-qos-policy-in)#rate-police 3000 40 peak 500 40 Dell(conf-qos-policy-in)#exit Dell(conf)#qos-policy-input cpuq_2 Dell(conf-qos-policy-in)#rate-police 5000 80 peak 600 50 Dell(conf-qos-policy-in)#exit The following example shows assigning the QoS policy to the queues.
CMIC queues. Before 9.4.(0.0)Dell Networking OS used only 8 queues most of the queues are shared to multiple protocols. So, increasing the number of CMIC queues will reduce the contention among the protocols for the queue bandwidth. Currently, there are 4 Queues for data and 4 for control in both front-end and back-plane ports. In stacked systems, the control streams that reach standby or slave units will be tunneled through the backplane ports across stack-units to reach the CPU of the master unit.

Configuring CoPP for OSPFv3 You can create an IPv6 ACL for control-plane traffic policing for OSPFv3, in addition to the CoPP support for VRRPv3, BGPv6, and ICMPv6. This functionality is supported on the S4810, S4820T, S6000, MXL, and Z9000 platforms. You can use the ipv6 access-list name cpu-qos permit ospfv3 or the ipv6 access-list name cpu-qos ospfv3 command to allow CoPP traffic for OSPFv3.
Displaying CoPP Configuration The CLI provides show commands to display the protocol traffic assigned to each control-plane queue and the current rate-limit applied to each queue. Other show commands display statistical information for trouble shooting CoPP operation. To view the rates for each queue, use the show cpu-queue rate cp command.

Data Center Bridging (DCB) 13 Ethernet Enhancements in Data Center Bridging The following section describes DCB. The S4048–ON system supports loading two DCB_Config files: FCoE_DCB_Config and iSCSI_DCB_Config. These files are located in the root directory flash:/CONFIG_TEMPLATE. After copying the configuration files to the startup config and reloading the system.
Traffic Description and performance impact LAN traffic consists of a large number of flows that are generally insensitive to latency requirements, while certain applications, such as streaming video, are more sensitive to latency. Ethernet functions as a best-effort network that may drop packets in case of network congestion. IP networks rely on transport protocols (for example, TCP) for reliable data transmission with the associated cost of greater processing overhead and performance impact.
Figure 32. Illustration of Traffic Congestion The system supports loading two DCB_Config files: • FCoE converged traffic with priority 3. • iSCSI storage traffic with priority 4. In the Dell Networking OS, PFC is implemented as follows: • PFC supports buffering to receive data that continues to arrive on an interface while the remote system reacts to the PFC operation. • PFC uses DCB MIB IEEE 802.1azd2.5 and PFC MIB IEEE 802.1bb-d2.2. • PFC uses DCB MIB IEEE 802.1azd2.5 and PFC MIB IEEE 802.
Figure 33. Enhanced Transmission Selection The following table lists the traffic groupings ETS uses to select multiprotocol traffic for transmission. Table 16. ETS Traffic Groupings Traffic Groupings Description Group ID A 4-bit identifier assigned to each priority group. The range is from 0 to 7 configurable; 8 - 14 reservation and 15.0 - 15.7 is strict priority group.. Group bandwidth Percentage of available bandwidth allocated to a priority group.
DCBx requires the link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) to provide the path to exchange DCB parameters with peer devices. Exchanged parameters are sent in organizationally specific TLVs in LLDP data units. The following LLDP TLVs are supported for DCB parameter exchange: PFC parameters PFC Configuration TLV and Application Priority Configuration TLV. ETS parameters ETS Configuration TLV and ETS Recommendation TLV.
To enable DCB with PFC buffers on a switch, enter the following commands, save the configuration, and reboot the system to allow the changes to take effect. 1. Enable DCB. CONFIGURATION mode dcb enable 2. Set PFC buffering on the DCB stack unit. CONFIGURATION mode Dell(conf)#dcb enable pfc-queues NOTE: To save the pfc buffering configuration changes, save the configuration and reboot the system.
DCB map is applied. By default, PFC is not applied on specific 802.1p priorities; ETS assigns equal bandwidth to each 802.1p priority. As a result, PFC and lossless port queues are disabled on 802.1p priorities, and all priorities are mapped to the same priority queue and equally share the port bandwidth. • To change the ETS bandwidth allocation configured for a priority group in a DCB map, do not modify the existing DCB map configuration.
To configure PFC, follow these steps: 1. Create a DCB Map. CONFIGURATION mode dcb-map dcb-map-name The dcb-map-name variable can have a maximum of 32 characters. 2. Create a PFC group. CONFIGURATION mode priority-group group-num {bandwidth bandwidth | strict-priority} pfc on The range for priority group is from 0 to 7. Set the bandwidth in percentage. The percentage range is from 1 to 100% in units of 1%. Committed and peak bandwidth is in megabits per second. The range is from 0 to 40000.
PFC no-drop queues are configured for queues 1, 2 on Port B. PFC capability is enabled on priorities 3, 4 on PORT A and C. Port B acting as Egress During the congestion, [traffic pump on priorities 3 and 4 from PORT A and PORT C is at full line rate], PORT A and C send out the PFCs to rate the traffic limit. Egress drops are not observed on Port B since traffic flow on priorities is mapped to loss less queues.
Configuring PFC in a DCB Map An S4048–ON switch supports the use of a DCB map in which you configure priority-based flow control (PFC) setting. To configure PFC parameters, you must apply a DCB map on an S4048–ON interface. This functionality is supported on the S4048–ON platform. PFC Configuration Notes PFC provides flow control based on the 802.1p priorities in a converged Ethernet traffic that is received on an interface and is enabled by default when you enable DCB.
link-level flow control. PFC is then automatically enabled on the interface because an interface is PFC-enabled by default. • To ensure no-drop handling of lossless traffic, PFC allows you to configure lossless queues on a port (see Configuring Lossless Queues). • When you configure a DCB map, an error message is displayed if the PFC dot1p priorities result in more than two lossless queues.
Step Task Command Command Mode Dell# interface tengigabitEthernet 1/1 Dell(config-if-te-1/1)# dcb-map SAN_A_dcb_map1 Repeat Steps 1 and 2 to apply a DCB map to more than one port. You cannot apply a DCB map on an interface that has been already configured for PFC using thepfc priority command or which is already configured for lossless queues (pfc no-drop queues command).
Example: Port A —> Port B Port C —> Port B PFC no-drop queues are configured for queues 1, 2 on Port B. PFC capability is enabled on priorities 3, 4 on PORT A and C. Port B acting as Egress During the congestion, [traffic pump on priorities 3 and 4 from PORT A and PORT C is at full line rate], PORT A and C send out the PFCs to rate the traffic limit. Egress drops are not observed on Port B since traffic flow on priorities is mapped to loss less queues.
Step Task Command Command Mode 3 Disable PFC. no pfc mode on DCB MAP 4 Return to interface configuration mode. exit DCB MAP 5 Apply the DCB map, created to disable the PFC operation, on the interface dcb-map {name | default} INTERFACE 6 Configure the port queues that still function as no-drop queues for lossless traffic. For the dot1p-queue assignments. pfc no-drop queuesqueue-range INTERFACE The maximum number of lossless queues globally supported on a port is 2.
a particular lossless priority on an interface. The pause and resume thresholds can also be configured dynamically. You can configure a buffer size, pause threshold, ingress shared threshold weight, and resume threshold to control and manage the total amount of buffers that are to be used in your network environment. Buffer Sizes for Lossless or PFC Packets You can configure up to a maximum of 4 lossless (PFC) queues.
The packets come in with packet-dot1p 2 alone use Q1 (as per dot1p to Queue classification – Table 2) on the egress port. • When Peer sends a PFC message for Priority 2, based on above PRIO2COS table (TABLE 2), Queue 1 is halted. • Queue 1 starts buffering the packets with Dot1p 2. This causes PG6 buffer counter to increase on the ingress, since P-dot1p 2 is mapped to PG6. • As the PG6 watermark threshold is reached, PFC generats for dot1p 2.
b. Apply PFC Priority configuration. Configure priorities on which PFC is enabled. Dell(conf-if-te-1/1)#pfc priority 1,2 Using PFC to Manage Converged Ethernet Traffic To use PFC for managing converged Ethernet traffic, use the following command: dcb-map stack-unit all dcb-map-name Configure Enhanced Transmission Selection ETS provides a way to optimize bandwidth allocation to outbound 802.1p classes of converged Ethernet traffic. Different traffic types have different service needs.
The range for priority group is from 0 to 7. Set the bandwidth in percentage. The percentage range is from 1 to 100% in units of 1%. Committed and peak bandwidth is in megabits per second. The range is from 0 to 40000. Committed and peak burst size is in kilobytes. Default is 50. The range is from 0 to 10000. 3. Configure the 802.1p priorities for the traffic on which you want to apply an ETS output policy. PRIORITY-GROUP mode priority-list value The range is from 0 to 7. The default is none.
ETS Operation with DCBx The following section describes DCBx negotiation with peer ETS devices. In DCBx negotiation with peer ETS devices, ETS configuration is handled as follows: • • • • ETS TLVs are supported in DCBx versions CIN, CEE, and IEEE2.5. The DCBx port-role configurations determine the ETS operational parameters (refer to Configure a DCBx Operation). ETS configurations received from TLVs from a peer are validated.
3. Repeat Step 2 to configure bandwidth percentages for other priority queues on the port. QoS OUTPUT POLICY mode Dell(conf-qos-policy-out)#bandwidth-percentage 100 4. Exit QoS Output Policy Configuration mode. QoS OUTPUT POLICY mode Dell(conf-if-te-0/1)#exit 5. Enter INTERFACE Configuration mode. CONFIGURATION mode interface type slot/port 6. Apply the QoS output policy with the bandwidth percentage for specified priority queues to an egress interface.
• Bandwidth assignment: By default, equal bandwidth is assigned to each dot1p priority in a priority group. To configure the bandwidth assigned to the port queues associated with dot1p priorities in a priority group, use the bandwidth percentage parameter. The sum of the bandwidth allocated to all priority groups in a DCB map must be 100% of the bandwidth on the link. You must allocate at least 1% of the total bandwidth to each priority group.
Hierarchical Scheduling in ETS Output Policies ETS supports up to three levels of hierarchical scheduling. For example, you can apply ETS output policies with the following configurations: Priority group 1 Assigns traffic to one priority queue with 20% of the link bandwidth and strictpriority scheduling. Priority group 2 Assigns traffic to one priority queue with 30% of the link bandwidth.
Configure a DCBx Operation DCB devices use data center bridging exchange protocol (DCBx) to exchange configuration information with directly connected peers using the link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) protocol. DCBx can detect the misconfiguration of a peer DCB device, and optionally, configure peer DCB devices with DCB feature settings to ensure consistent operation in a data center network.
• If the received peer configuration is not compatible with the currently configured port configuration, the link with the DCBx peer port is disabled and a syslog message for an incompatible configuration is generated. The network administrator must then reconfigure the peer device so that it advertises a compatible DCB configuration. – The configuration received from a DCBx peer or from an internally propagated configuration is not stored in the switch’s running configuration.
On a DCBx port in a manual role, all PFC, application priority, ETS recommend, and ETS configuration TLVs are enabled. When making a configuration change to a DCBx port in a Manual role, Dell Networking recommends shutting down the interface using the shutdown command, change the configuration, then re-activate the interface using the no shutdown command. The default for the DCBx port role is manual.
• If there is no configuration source, a port may elect itself as the configuration source. A port may become the configuration source if the following conditions exist: – No other port is the configuration source. – The port role is auto-upstream. – The port is enabled with link up and DCBx enabled. – The port has performed a DCBx exchange with a DCBx peer. – The switch is capable of supporting the received DCB configuration values through either a symmetric or asymmetric parameter exchange.
different version is received, a syslog message is generated and the peer version is recorded in the peer status table. If the frame cannot be processed, it is discarded and the discard counter is incremented. NOTE: Because DCBx TLV processing is best effort, it is possible that CIN frames may be processed when DCBx is configured to operate in CEE mode and vice versa. In this case, the unrecognized TLVs cause the unrecognized TLV counter to increment, but the frame is processed and is not discarded.
• The CIN version of DCBx supports only PFC, ETS, and FCOE; it does not support iSCSI, backward congestion management (BCN), logical link down (LLDF), and network interface virtualization (NIV). Configuring DCBx To configure DCBx, follow these steps. For DCBx, to advertise DCBx TLVs to peers, enable LLDP. For more information, refer to Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP). Configure DCBx operation at the interface level on a switch or globally on the switch.

The default is All PFC and ETS TLVs are advertised. NOTE: You can configure the transmission of more than one TLV type at a time; for example, advertise DCBx-tlv ets-conf ets-reco.
• cee: configures a port to use CEE (Intel 1.01). cin configures a port to use Cisco-Intel-Nuova (DCBx 1.0). • ieee-v2.5: configures a port to use IEEE 802.1Qaz (Draft 2.5). The default is Auto. NOTE: To configure the DCBx port role the interfaces use to exchange DCB information, use the DCBx port-role command in INTERFACE Configuration mode (Step 3). 4. Configure the PFC and ETS TLVs that advertise on unconfigured interfaces with a manual port-role.
The default is 0x10. DCBx Error Messages The following syslog messages appear when an error in DCBx operation occurs. LLDP_MULTIPLE_PEER_DETECTED: DCBx is operationally disabled after detecting more than one DCBx peer on the port interface. LLDP_PEER_AGE_OUT: DCBx is disabled as a result of LLDP timing out on a DCBx peer interface.
Verifying the DCB Configuration To display DCB configurations, use the following show commands. Table 21. Displaying DCB Configurations Command Output show qos dot1p-queue mapping Displays the current 802.1p priority-queue mapping. show dcb [stack-unit unit-number] Displays the data center bridging status, number of PFC-enabled ports, and number of PFC-enabled queues.

NOTE: Dell Networking does not recommend mapping all ingress traffic to a single queue when using PFC and ETS. However, Dell Networking does recommend using Ingress traffic classification using the service-class dynamic dot1p command (honor dot1p) on all DCB-enabled interfaces.
Configuring the Dynamic Buffer Method Priority-based flow control using dynamic buffer spaces is supported on the switch. To configure the dynamic buffer capability, perform the following steps: 1. Enable the DCB application. By default, DCB is enabled and link-level flow control is disabled on all interfaces. CONFIGURATION mode dcb enable 2. Configure the shared PFC buffer size and the total buffer size. A maximum of 4 lossless queues are supported.
CONFIGURATION mode dcb pfc-total-buffer-size buffer-size stack-unit all port-set {port-pipe | all} Port-set number range is from 0 to 3. Sample DCB Configuration The following shows examples of using PFC and ETS to manage your data center traffic. In the following example: • Incoming SAN traffic is configured for priority-based flow control. • Outbound LAN, IPC, and SAN traffic is mapped into three ETS priority groups and configured for enhanced traffic selection (bandwidth allocation and scheduling).
Figure 36. PFC and ETS Applied to LAN, IPC, and SAN Priority Traffic QoS Traffic Classification: The service-class dynamic dot1p command has been used in Global Configuration mode to map ingress dot1p frames to the queues shown in the following table.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) 14 DHCP is an application layer protocol that dynamically assigns IP addresses and other configuration parameters to network end-stations (hosts) based on configuration policies determined by network administrators.
Option Number and Description Subnet Mask Option 1 Specifies the client’s subnet mask. Router Option 3 Specifies the router IP addresses that may serve as the client’s default gateway. Domain Name Server Option 6 Domain Name Option 15 Specifies the domain name servers (DNSs) that are available to the client. Specifies the domain name that clients should use when resolving hostnames via DNS.
Option Number and Description Identifiers a user-defined string used by the Relay Agent to forward DHCP client packets to a specific server. L2 DHCP Snooping Option 82 User Port Stacking Option 230 Specifies IP addresses for DHCP messages received from the client that are to be monitored to build a DHCP snooping database. Set the stacking option variable to provide DHCP server stack-port detail when the DHCP offer is set. End Option 255 Signals the last option in the DHCP packet.
Figure 38. Client and Server Messaging Implementation Information The following describes DHCP implementation. • • • • • Dell Networking implements DHCP based on RFC 2131 and RFC 3046. IP source address validation is a sub-feature of DHCP Snooping; the Dell Networking OS uses access control lists (ACLs) internally to implement this feature and as such, you cannot apply ACLs to an interface which has IP source address validation.
The following table lists the key responsibilities of DHCP servers. Table 25. DHCP Server Responsibilities DHCP Server Responsibilities Description Address Storage and Management DHCP servers are the owners of the addresses used by DHCP clients.The server stores the addresses and manages their use, keeping track of which addresses have been allocated and which are still available.
• prefix-length: specifies the number of bits used for the network portion of the address you specify. The prefix-length range is from 17 to 31. 4. Display the current pool configuration. DHCP mode show config After an IP address is leased to a client, only that client may release the address. Dell Networking OS performs a IP + MAC source address validation to ensure that no client can release another clients address.
Specifying a Default Gateway The IP address of the default router should be on the same subnet as the client. To specify a default gateway, follow this step. • Specify default gateway(s) for the clients on the subnet, in order of preference. DHCP default-router address Configure a Method of Hostname Resolution Dell systems are capable of providing DHCP clients with parameters for two methods of hostname resolution—using DNS or NetBIOS WINS.
Manual bindings can be considered single-host address pools. There is no limit on the number of manual bindings, but you can only configure one manual binding per host. NOTE: Dell Networking OS does not prevent you from using a network IP as a host IP; be sure to not use a network IP as a host IP. 1. Create an address pool. DHCP mode pool name 2. Specify the client IP address. DHCP host address 3. Specify the client hardware address.
shown in the following illustration. Specify multiple DHCP servers by using the ip helper-address dhcp-address command multiple times. When you configure the ip helper-address command, the system listens for DHCP broadcast messages on port 67. The system rewrites packets received from the client and forwards them via unicast to the DHCP servers; the system rewrites the destination IP address and writes its own address as the relay device.
To view the ip helper-address configuration for an interface, use the show ip interface command from EXEC privilege mode. Example of the show ip interface Command R1_E600#show ip int tengigabitethernet 1/3 TenGigabitEthernet 1/3 is up, line protocol is down Internet address is 10.11.0.1/24 Broadcast address is 10.11.0.255 Address determined by user input IP MTU is 1500 bytes Helper address is 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.
Configuring the DHCP Client System This section describes how to configure and view an interface as a DHCP client to receive an IP address. Dell Networking OS Behavior: The ip address dhcp command enables DHCP server-assigned dynamic addresses on an interface. The setting persists after a switch reboot. To stop DHCP transactions and save the dynamically acquired IP address, use the shutdown command on the interface.
ip address dhcp Dynamically assigned IP addresses can be released without removing the DHCP client operation on the interface on a switch configured as a DHCP client. 3. Manually acquire a new IP address from the DHCP server by releasing a dynamically acquired IP address while retaining the DHCP client configuration on the interface. EXEC Privilege mode release dhcp interface type slot/port[/subport] 4. Acquire a new IP address with renewed lease time from a DHCP server.
NOTE: Management routes added by the DHCP client include the specific routes to reach a DHCP server in a different subnet and the management route. DHCP Client Operation with Other Features The DHCP client operates with other Dell Networking OS features, as the following describes. Stacking The DHCP client daemon runs only on the master unit and handles all DHCP packet transactions. It periodically synchronizes the lease file with the standby unit.
Configure the System for User Port Stacking (Option 230) Set the stacking-option variable to provide stack-port detail on the DHCP server when you set the DHCP offer. A stack can be formed when the units are connected. Option 230 is the option for user port stacking. Use it to create up to eight stack groups. Define the configuration parameters on the DHCP server for each chassis based on the chassis MAC address.
To insert Option 82 into DHCP packets, follow this step. • Insert Option 82 into DHCP packets. CONFIGURATION mode ip dhcp relay information-option [trust-downstream] • For routers between the relay agent and the DHCP server, enter the trust-downstream option. Manually reset the remote ID for Option 82. CONFIGURATION mode ip dhcp relay information-option remote-id DHCP Snooping DHCP snooping protects networks from spoofing. In the context of DHCP snooping, ports are either trusted or not trusted.
Enabling DHCP Snooping To enable DHCP snooping, use the following commands. 1. Enable DHCP snooping globally. CONFIGURATION mode ip dhcp snooping 2. Specify ports connected to DHCP servers as trusted. INTERFACE mode INTERFACE PORT EXTENDER mode ip dhcp snooping trust 3. Enable DHCP snooping on a VLAN. CONFIGURATION mode ip dhcp snooping vlan name Enabling IPv6 DHCP Snooping To enable IPv6 DHCP snooping, use the following commands. 1. Enable IPv6 DHCP snooping globally.

ARP is a stateless protocol that provides no authentication mechanism.
NOTE: Dynamic ARP inspection (DAI) uses entries in the L2SysFlow CAM region, a sub-region of SystemFlow. One CAM entry is required for every DAI-enabled VLAN. You can enable DAI on up to 16 VLANs on a system. However, the ExaScale default CAM profile allocates only nine entries to the L2SysFlow region for DAI. You can configure 10 to 16 DAI-enabled VLANs by allocating more CAM space to the L2SysFlow region before enabling DAI. SystemFlow has 102 entries by default.
Invalid ARP Replies Dell# : 0 Bypassing the ARP Inspection You can configure a port to skip ARP inspection by defining the interface as trusted, which is useful in multi-switch environments. ARPs received on trusted ports bypass validation against the binding table. All ports are untrusted by default. To bypass the ARP inspection, use the following command. • Specify an interface as trusted so that ARPs are not validated against the binding table.
NOTE: If you enable IP source guard using the ip dhcp source-address-validation command and if there are more entries in the current DHCP snooping binding table than the available CAM space, SAV may not be applied to all entries. To ensure that SAV is applied correctly to all entries, enable the ip dhcp source-address-validation command before adding entries to the binding table. • Enable IP source address validation.
INTERFACE mode ip dhcp source-address-validation ipmac • Enable IP+MAC SAV with VLAN option. INTERFACE mode ip dhcp source-address-validation ipmac vlan vlan-id Dell Networking OS creates an ACL entry for each IP+MAC address pair and optionally with its VLAN ID in the binding table and applies it to the interface. To display the IP+MAC ACL for an interface for the entire system, use the show ip dhcp snooping source-address-validation [interface] command in EXEC Privilege mode.
15 Equal Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) This chapter describes configuring ECMP. This chapter describes configuring ECMP. ECMP for Flow-Based Affinity ECMP for flow-based affinity includes link bundle monitoring. Configuring the Hash Algorithm TeraScale has one algorithm that is used for link aggregation groups (LAGs), ECMP, and NH-ECMP, and ExaScale can use three different algorithms for each of these features. To adjust the ExaScale behavior to match TeraScale, use the following command.
Configuring the Hash Algorithm Seed Deterministic ECMP sorts ECMPs in order even though RTM provides them in a random order. However, the hash algorithm uses as a seed the lower 12 bits of the chassis MAC, which yields a different hash result for every chassis. This behavior means that for a given flow, even though the prefixes are sorted, two unrelated chassis can select different hops.
For link bundle monitoring with ECMP, to enable the link bundle monitoring feature, use the ecmpgroup command. In the following example, the ecmp-group with id 2, enabled for link bundle monitoring is user configured. This is different from the ecmp-group index 2 that is created by configuring routes and is automatically generated. These two ecmp-groups are not related in any way.

CONFIGURATION ECMP-GROUP mode link-bundle-monitor enable Modifying the ECMP Group Threshold You can customize the threshold percentage for monitoring ECMP group bundles. To customize the ECMP group bundle threshold and to view the changes, use the following commands. • Modify the threshold for monitoring ECMP group bundles.

Figure 40. Before Polarization Effect Router B performs the same hash as router A and all the traffic goes through the same path to router D, while no traffic is redirected to router E. Some of the anti-polarization techniques used generally to mitigate unequal traffic distribution in LAG/ ECMP as follows: 1. Configuring different hash-seed values at each node - Hash seed is the primary parameter in hash computations that determine distribution of traffic among the ECMP paths.
dynamic hash function selection across different nodes in a network on a macro flow basis, thus reducing unfair distribution of bandwidth between members and starvation. Selection of Algorithms is available under flow-based-hashing enabling another level of randomness in hash selection.
Figure 41. After Polarization Effect Traffic flow after enabling flow-based hashing When the flow-based hashing is enabled at all the nodes in the multi-tier network, traffic distribution is balanced at all tiers of the network nullifying the polarization effect. Traffic occurs by the randomness for the flow-based hashing algorithm across multiple nodes in a given network.
FCoE Transit 16 The Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) Transit feature is supported on Ethernet interfaces. When you enable the switch for FCoE transit, the switch functions as a FIP snooping bridge. NOTE: FIP snooping is not supported on Fibre Channel interfaces or in a switch stack. Fibre Channel over Ethernet FCoE provides a converged Ethernet network that allows the combination of storage-area network (SAN) and LAN traffic on a Layer 2 link by encapsulating Fibre Channel data into Ethernet frames.
requirement for point-to-point connections by creating a unique virtual link for each connection between an FCoE end-device and an FCF via a transit switch. FIP provides functionality for discovering and logging into an FCF. After discovering and logging in, FIP allows FCoE traffic to be sent and received between FCoE end-devices (ENodes) and the FCF. FIP uses its own EtherType and frame format. The following illustration shows the communication that occurs between an ENode server and an FCoE switch (FCF).
Figure 42. FIP Discovery and Login Between an ENode and an FCF FIP Snooping on Ethernet Bridges In a converged Ethernet network, intermediate Ethernet bridges can snoop on FIP packets during the login process on an FCF. Then, using ACLs, a transit bridge can permit only authorized FCoE traffic to be transmitted between an FCoE end-device and an FCF. An Ethernet bridge that provides these functions is called a FIP snooping bridge (FSB).
The following illustration shows a switch used as a FIP snooping bridge in a converged Ethernet network. The top-of-rack (ToR) switch operates as an FCF for FCoE traffic. Converged LAN and SAN traffic is transmitted between the ToR switch and an S4048–ON switch.The switch operates as a lossless FIP snooping bridge to transparently forward FCoE frames between the ENode servers and the FCF switch. Figure 43.
• To assign a MAC address to an FCoE end-device (server ENode or storage device) after a server successfully logs in, set the FCoE MAC address prefix (FC-MAP) value an FCF uses. The FC-MAP value is used in the ACLs installed in bridge-to-bridge links on the switch. • To provide more port security on ports that are directly connected to an FCF and have links to other FIP snooping bridges, set the FCF or Bridge-to-Bridge Port modes.
• configure each FIP snooping port to operate in Hybrid mode so that it accepts both tagged and untagged VLAN frames (use the portmode hybrid command). • configure tagged VLAN membership on each FIP snooping port that sends and receives FCoE traffic and has links with an FCF, ENode server, or another FIP snooping bridge (use the tagged port-type slot/port command). The default VLAN membership of the port must continue to operate with untagged frames.
nlbclusteracl: 0 st-sjc-s5000-29# Enabling the FCoE Transit Feature The following sections describe how to enable FCoE transit. NOTE: FCoE transit is disabled by default. To enable this feature, you must follow the Configure FIP Snooping. As soon as you enable the FCoE transit feature on a switch-bridge, existing VLAN-specific and FIP snooping configurations are applied.
FCoE traffic is allowed on the port only after the switch learns the FC-MAP value associated with the specified FCF MAC address and verifies that it matches the configured FC-MAP value for the FCoE VLAN. Configure a Port for a Bridge-to-FCF Link If a port is directly connected to an FCF, configure the port mode as FCF. Initially, all FCoE traffic is blocked; only FIP frames are allowed to pass.
Configuring FIP Snooping You can enable FIP snooping globally on all FCoE VLANs on a switch or on an individual FCoE VLAN. By default, FIP snooping is disabled. To enable FCoE transit on the switch and configure the FCoE transit parameters on ports, follow these steps. 1. Configure FCoE. FCoE configuration: copy flash:/ CONFIG_TEMPLATE/ FCoE_DCB_Config running-config The configuration files are stored in the flash memory in the CONFIG_TEMPLATE file.

FIPS Cryptography 17 Federal information processing standard (FIPS) cryptography provides cryptographic algorithms conforming to various FIPS standards published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a non-regulatory agency of the US Department of Commerce. FIPS mode is also validated for numerous platforms to meet the FIPS-140-2 standard for a software-based cryptographic module. This chapter describes how to enable FIPS cryptography requirements on Dell Networking platforms.
Enabling FIPS Mode To enable or disable FIPS mode, use the console port. Secure the host attached to the console port against unauthorized access. Any attempts to enable or disable FIPS mode from a virtual terminal session are denied. When you enable FIPS mode, the following actions are taken: • If enabled, the SSH server is disabled. • All open SSH and Telnet sessions, as well as all SCP and FTP file transfers, are closed.
Monitoring FIPS Mode Status To view the status of the current FIPS mode (enabled/disabled), use the following commands. • Use either command to view the status of the current FIPS mode. show fips status show system Examples of the show fips status and show system Commands The following example shows the show fips status command.

Disabling FIPS Mode When you disable FIPS mode, the following changes occur: • The SSH server disables. • All open SSH and Telnet sessions, as well as all SCP and FTP file transfers, close. • Any existing host keys (both RSA and RSA1) are deleted from system memory and NVRAM storage. • FIPS mode disables. • The SSH server re-enables. • The Telnet server re-enables (if it is present in the configuration). • New 1024–bit RSA and RSA1 host key-pairs are created.
18 Force10 Resilient Ring Protocol (FRRP) FRRP provides fast network convergence to Layer 2 switches interconnected in a ring topology, such as a metropolitan area network (MAN) or large campuses. FRRP is similar to what can be achieved with the spanning tree protocol (STP), though even with optimizations, STP can take up to 50 seconds to converge (depending on the size of network and node of failure) and may require 4 to 5 seconds to reconverge.
The Member VLAN is the VLAN used to transmit data as described earlier. The Control VLAN is used to perform the health checks on the ring. The Control VLAN can always pass through all ports in the ring, including the secondary port of the Master node. Ring Status The ring failure notification and the ring status checks provide two ways to ensure the ring remains up and active in the event of a switch or port failure.
Multiple FRRP Rings Up to 255 rings are allowed per system and multiple rings can be run on one system. More than the recommended number of rings may cause interface instability. You can configure multiple rings with a single switch connection; a single ring can have multiple FRRP groups; multiple rings can be connected with a common link. The platform supports up to 32 rings on a system (including stacked units).
Figure 45. Example of Multiple Rings Connected by Single Switch Important FRRP Points FRRP provides a convergence time that can generally range between 150ms and 1500ms for Layer 2 networks. The Master node originates a high-speed frame that circulates around the ring. This frame, appropriately, sets up or breaks down the ring. • The Master node transmits ring status check frames at specified intervals. • You can run multiple physical rings on the same switch.
• STP disabled on ring interfaces. • Master node secondary port is in blocking state during Normal operation. • Ring health frames (RHF) – Hello RHF: sent at 500ms (hello interval); Only the Master node transmits and processes these. – Topology Change RHF: triggered updates; processed at all nodes. Important FRRP Concepts The following table lists some important FRRP concepts.
Concept Explanation VLAN, and Master and Transit node information must be configured for the ring to be up. • Ring-Up — Ring is up and operational. • Ring-Down — Ring is broken or not set up. Ring Health-Check The Master node generates two types of RHFs. RHFs never loop the ring because Frame (RHF) they terminate at the Master node’s secondary port. • Hello RHF (HRHF) — These frames are processed only on the Master node’s Secondary port. The Transit nodes pass the HRHF through without processing it.

19 GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) The generic attribute registration protocol (GARP) VLAN registration protocol (GVRP), defined by the IEEE 802.1q specification, is a Layer 2 network protocol that provides for automatic VLAN configuration of switches. GVRP-compliant switches use GARP to register and de-register attribute values, such as VLAN IDs, with each other.
Configure GVRP To begin, enable GVRP. To facilitate GVRP communications, enable GVRP globally on each switch. Then, GVRP configuration is per interface on a switch-by-switch basis. Enable GVRP on each port that connects to a switch where you want GVRP information exchanged. In the following example, GVRP is configured on VLAN trunk ports. Figure 46. Global GVRP Configuration Example Basic GVRP configuration is a two-step process: 1. Enabling GVRP Globally 2.
Enabling GVRP Globally To configure GVRP globally, use the following command. • Enable GVRP for the entire switch. CONFIGURATION mode gvrp enable Example of Configuring GVRP Dell(conf)#protocol gvrp Dell(config-gvrp)#no disable Dell(config-gvrp)#show config ! protocol gvrp no disable Dell(config-gvrp)# To inspect the global configuration, use the show gvrp brief command. Enabling GVRP on a Layer 2 Interface To enable GVRP on a Layer 2 interface, use the following command.
• Forbidden Mode — Disables the port to dynamically register VLANs and to propagate VLAN information except information about VLAN 1. A port with forbidden registration type thus allows only VLAN 1 to pass through even though the PDU carries information for more VLANs. Therefore, if you do not want the interface to advertise or learn about particular VLANS, set the interface to the registration mode of FORBIDDEN.
Dell Networking OS displays this message if an attempt is made to configure an invalid GARP timer: Dell(conf)#garp timers join 300 % Error: Leave timer should be >= 3*Join timer. RPM Redundancy The current version of Dell Networking OS supports 1+1 hitless route processor module (RPM) redundancy. The primary RPM performs all routing, switching, and control operations while the standby RPM monitors the primary RPM.
20 High Availability (HA) High availability (HA) is supported on Dell Networking OS. HA is a collection of features that preserves system continuity by maximizing uptime and minimizing packet loss during system disruptions. To support all the features within the HA collection, you should have the latest boot code. The following table lists the boot code requirements as of this Dell Networking OS release. Table 34. Boot Code Requirements Component Boot Code S4048–ON 1 2.0.

Specifying an Auto-Failover Limit When a non-recoverable fatal error is detected, an automatic failover occurs. However, Dell Networking OS is configured to auto-failover only three times within any 60 minute period. You may specify a different auto-failover count. To re-enable the auto-failover-limit with its default parameters, use the redundancy auto-failoverlimit command without parameters. • Set a different auto-failover count.
Removing a Provisioned Logical Stack Unit To remove the line card configuration, use the following command. • To remove a logical stack-unit configuration, use the following command: CONFIGURATION mode no stack-unit unit_id provision Hitless Behavior Hitless is a protocol-based system behavior that makes a stack unit failover on the local system transparent to remote systems.
Software Resiliency During normal operations, Dell Networking OS monitors the health of both hardware and software components in the background to identify potential failures, even before these failures manifest. Software Component Health Monitoring On each of the line cards and the stack unit, there are a number of software components.
System Log Event messages provide system administrators diagnostics and auditing information. Dell Networking OS sends event messages to the internal buffer, all terminal lines, the console, and optionally to a syslog server. For more information about event messages and configurable options, refer to Management. Hot-Lock Behavior Dell Networking OS hot-lock features allow you to append and delete their corresponding content addressable memory (CAM) entries dynamically without disrupting traffic.
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) 21 Internet group management protocol (IGMP) is a Layer 3 multicast protocol that hosts use to join or leave a multicast group. Multicast is premised on identifying many hosts by a single destination IP address; hosts represented by the same IP address are a multicast group. Multicast routing protocols (such as protocol-independent multicast [PIM]) use the information in IGMP messages to discover which groups are active and to populate the multicast routing table.
Figure 47. IGMP Messages in IP Packets Join a Multicast Group There are two ways that a host may join a multicast group: it may respond to a general query from its querier or it may send an unsolicited report to its querier. Responding to an IGMP Query The following describes how a host can join a multicast group. 1. One router on a subnet is elected as the querier. The querier periodically multicasts (to all-multicastsystems address 224.0.0.1) a general query to all hosts on the subnet. 2.
response, the querier removes the group from the list associated with forwarding port and stops forwarding traffic for that group to the subnet. IGMP Version 3 Conceptually, IGMP version 3 behaves the same as version 2. However, there are differences. • Version 3 adds the ability to filter by multicast source, which helps multicast routing protocols avoid forwarding traffic to subnets where there are no interested receivers.
Figure 49. IGMP Version 3–Capable Multicast Routers Address Structure Joining and Filtering Groups and Sources The following illustration shows how multicast routers maintain the group and source information from unsolicited reports. 1. The first unsolicited report from the host indicates that it wants to receive traffic for group 224.1.1.1. 2. The host’s second report indicates that it is only interested in traffic from group 224.1.1.1, source 10.11.1.1.
Figure 50. Membership Reports: Joining and Filtering Leaving and Staying in Groups The following illustration shows how multicast routers track and refresh state changes in response to group-and-specific and general queries. 1. Host 1 sends a message indicating it is leaving group 224.1.1.1 and that the included filter for 10.11.1.1 and 10.11.1.2 are no longer necessary. 2.
Figure 51. Membership Queries: Leaving and Staying Configure IGMP Configuring IGMP is a two-step process. 1. Enable multicast routing using the ip multicast-routing command. 2. Enable a multicast routing protocol.
• Designating a Multicast Router Interface Viewing IGMP Enabled Interfaces Interfaces that are enabled with PIM-SM are automatically enabled with IGMP. To view IGMP-enabled interfaces, use the following command. • View IGMP-enabled interfaces.

INTERFACE mode ip igmp last-member-query-interval Preventing a Host from Joining a Group You can prevent a host from joining a particular group by blocking specific IGMP reports. Create an extended access list containing the permissible source-group pairs. NOTE: For rules in IGMP access lists, source is the multicast source, not the source of the IGMP packet.

Enabling IGMP Immediate-Leave If the querier does not receive a response to a group-specific or group-and-source query, it sends another (querier robustness value). Then, after no response, it removes the group from the outgoing interface for the subnet. IGMP immediate leave reduces leave latency by enabling a router to immediately delete the group membership on an interface after receiving a Leave message (it does not send any group-specific or group-and-source queries before deleting the entry).

EXEC Privilege mode. show ip igmp snooping mrouter Configuring the Switch as Querier To configure the switch as a querier, use the following command.
Fast Convergence after MSTP Topology Changes When a port transitions to the Forwarding state as a result of an STP or MSTP topology change, Dell Networking OS sends a general query out of all ports except the multicast router ports. The host sends a response to the general query and the forwarding database is updated without having to wait for the query interval to expire.
Protocol Separation When you configure the application application-type command to configure a set of management applications with TCP/UDP port numbers to the OS, the following table describes the association between applications and their port numbers. Table 36.
can configure two default routes, one configured on the management port and the other on the frontend port. Two tables, namely, Egress Interface Selection routing table and default routing table, are maintained. In the preceding table, the columns Client and Server indicate that the applications can act as both a client and a server within the switch. The Management Egress Interface Selection table contains all management routes (connected, static and default route).
When the feature is disabled using the no management egress-interface-selection command, the following operations are performed: • All management application configuration is removed. • All routes installed in the management EIS routing table are removed. Handling of Management Route Configuration When the EIS feature is enabled, the following processing occurs: • All existing management routes (connected, static and default) are duplicated and added to the management EIS routing table.
the show management application pkt-drop-cntr command. This counter is cleared using clear management application pkt-drop-cntr command. • Packets whose destination TCP/UDP port does not match a configured management application, take the regular route lookup flow in the IP stack. • In the ARP layer, for all ARP packets received through the management interface, a double route lookup is done, one in the default routing table and another in the management EIS routing table.
traffic for such end-user-originated sessions destined to management port ip1 is handled using the EIS route lookup. Handling of Transit Traffic (Traffic Separation) This is forwarded traffic where destination IP is not an IP address configured in the switch. • Packets received on the management port with destination on the front-end port is dropped. • Packets received on the front-end port with destination on the management port is dropped. • A separate drop counter is incremented for this case.
This phenomenon occurs where traffic is transiting the switch. Traffic has not originated from the switch and is not terminating on the switch. • Drop the packets that are received on the front-end data port with destination on the management port. • Drop the packets that received on the management port with destination as the front-end data port. Switch-Destined Traffic This phenomenon occurs where traffic is terminated on the switch.
Table 38.
Default Behavior: Route lookup is done in the default routing table and appropriate egress port is selected. Table 39.
Designating a Multicast Router Interface To designate an interface as a multicast router interface, use the following command. Dell Networking OS also has the capability of listening in on the incoming IGMP general queries and designate those interfaces as the multicast router interface when the frames have a non-zero IP source address. All IGMP control packets and IP multicast data traffic originating from receivers is forwarded to multicast router interfaces.
Interfaces 22 This chapter describes interface types, both physical and logical, and how to configure them with Dell Networking Operating System (OS). • The system supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and 40 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. NOTE: Only Dell-qualified optics are supported on these interfaces. Non-Dell optics are set to error-disabled state by default.
Interface Types The following table describes different interface types. Table 40.

To reset the configuration, perform the following steps: 1. View the configurations applied on an interface.
CONFIGURATION mode interface interface • For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/ port[/subport] information. • For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information. Enable the interface. 2. INTERFACE mode no shutdown To confirm that the interface is enabled, use the show config command in INTERFACE mode. To leave INTERFACE mode, use the exit command or end command. You cannot delete a physical interface.
Table 41. Layer Modes Type of Interface Possible Modes Requires Creation Default State 10 Gigabit Ethernet and 40 Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2 No Shutdown (disabled) Management N/A No Shutdown (disabled) Loopback Layer 3 Yes No shutdown (enabled) Null interface N/A No Enabled Port Channel Layer 2 Yes Shutdown (disabled) Yes, except for the default VLAN.
To view the interfaces in Layer 2 mode, use the show interfaces switchport command in EXEC mode. Configuring Layer 3 (Network) Mode When you assign an IP address to a physical interface, you place it in Layer 3 mode. To enable Layer 3 mode on an individual interface, use the following commands. In all interface types except VLANs, the shutdown command prevents all traffic from passing through the interface. In VLANs, the shutdown command prevents Layer 3 traffic from passing through the interface.
Example of the show ip interface Command You can only configure one primary IP address per interface. You can configure up to 255 secondary IP addresses on a single interface. To view all interfaces to see with an IP address assigned, use the show ip interfaces brief command in EXEC mode as shown in View Basic Interface Information. To view IP information on an interface in Layer 3 mode, use the show ip interface command in EXEC Privilege mode.
management egress-interface-selection 2. Configure which applications uses EIS. EIS mode application {all | application-type} NOTE: If you configure SNMP as the management application for EIS and you add a default management route, when you perform an SNMP walk and check the debugging logs for the source and destination IPs, the SNMP agent uses the destination address of incoming SNMP packets as the source address for outgoing SNMP responses for security.
• IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces: – across a platform must be in the same subnet. – must not match the virtual IP address and must not be in the same subnet as the virtual IP. Dell#show interfaces managementethernet 1/1 ManagementEthernet 1/1 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is DellForce10Eth, address is 00:01:e8:a0:bf:f3 Current address is 00:01:e8:a0:bf:f3 Pluggable media not present Interface index is 302006472 Internet address is 10.16.130.
To view the Primary RPM Management port, use the show interface Managementethernet command in EXEC Privilege mode. If there are two RPMs, you cannot view information on that interface. Configuring a Management Interface on an Ethernet Port You can manage the system through any port using remote access such as Telnet. To configure an IP address for the port, use the following commands. There is no separate management routing table, so configure all routes in the IP routing table (the ip route command).
VLAN Interfaces VLANs are logical interfaces and are, by default, in Layer 2 mode. Physical interfaces and port channels can be members of VLANs. For more information about VLANs and Layer 2, see Layer 2 and Virtual LANs (VLANs). NOTE: To monitor VLAN interfaces, use Management Information Base for Network Management of TCP/IP-based internets: MIB-II (RFC 1213). NOTE: You cannot simultaneously use egress rate shaping and ingress rate policing on the same VLAN.
• Enter a number as the Loopback interface. CONFIGURATION mode interface loopback number • The range is from 0 to 16383. View Loopback interface configurations. EXEC mode • show interface loopback number Delete a Loopback interface. CONFIGURATION mode no interface loopback number Many of the commands supported on physical interfaces are also supported on a Loopback interface. Null Interfaces The Null interface is another virtual interface. There is only one Null interface.
Port Channel Benefits A port channel interface provides many benefits, including easy management, link redundancy, and sharing. Port channels are transparent to network configurations and can be modified and managed as one interface. For example, you configure one IP address for the group and that IP address is used for all routed traffic on the port channel. With this feature, you can create larger-capacity interfaces by utilizing a group of lower-speed links.
configuration becomes the common speed of the port channel. If the other interfaces configured in that port channel are configured with a different speed, Dell Networking OS disables them. Configuration Tasks for Port Channel Interfaces To configure a port channel (LAG), use the commands similar to those found in physical interfaces. By default, no port channels are configured in the startup configuration.
• • • shutdown/no shutdown mtu ip mtu (if the interface is on a Jumbo-enabled by default) NOTE: A logical port channel interface cannot have flow control. Flow control can only be present on the physical interfaces if they are part of a port channel. NOTE: The system supports jumbo frames by default (the default maximum transmission unit (MTU) is 1554 bytes). To configure the MTU, use the mtu command from INTERFACE mode.

3. Add the interface to the second port channel. INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode channel-member interface Example of Moving an Interface to a New Port Channel The following example shows moving the TenGigabitEthernet 1/8 interface from port channel 4 to port channel 3.
• An interface with tagging enabled can belong to multiple VLANs. Add the port channel to the VLAN as an untagged interface. INTERFACE VLAN mode untagged port-channel id number • An interface without tagging enabled can belong to only one VLAN. Remove the port channel with tagging enabled from the VLAN. INTERFACE VLAN mode no tagged port-channel id number or • no untagged port-channel id number Identify which port channels are members of VLANs.
Assigning an IP Address to a Port Channel You can assign an IP address to a port channel and use port channels in Layer 3 routing protocols. To assign an IP address, use the following command. • Configure an IP address and mask on the interface. INTERFACE mode ip address ip-address mask [secondary] – ip-address mask: enter an address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D). The mask must be in slash format (/24). – secondary: the IP address is the interface’s backup IP address.
• Change the default (0) to another algorithm and apply it to ECMP, LAG hashing, or a particular line card.
The show configuration command is also available under Interface Range mode. This command allows you to display the running configuration only for interfaces that are part of interface range. You can avoid specifying spaces between the range of interfaces, separated by commas, that you configure by using the interface range command. For example, if you enter a list of interface ranges, such as interface range fo 2/50-2,te 1/1, this configuration is considered valid.
Exclude a Smaller Port Range The following is an example show how the smaller of two port ranges is omitted in the interface-range prompt. Example of the Interface-Range Prompt for Multiple Port Ranges Dell(conf)#interface range tengigabitethernet 2/1 - 2/23 , gigab 2/1 - 2/10 Dell(conf-if-range-te-2/1-2/23)# Overlap Port Ranges The following is an example showing how the interface-range prompt extends a port range from the smallest start port number to the largest end port number when port ranges overlap.
Define the Interface Range The following example shows how to define an interface-range macro named “test” to select Ten Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 5/1 through 5/4. Example of the define interface-range Command for Macros Dell(config)# define interface-range test tengigabitethernet 5/1 - 5/4 Choosing an Interface-Range Macro To use an interface-range macro, use the following command. • Selects the interfaces range to be configured using the values saved in a named interface-range macro.

If the system displays an error message similar to the following, the transceiver is not Dell-qualified. The Dell Networking OS places the interface in error-disabled (operationally down) state.
• • The quad port must be in a default configuration before you can split it into 4x10G ports. The 40G port is lost in the configuration when the port is split; be sure that the port is also removed from other L2/L3 feature configurations. The system must be reloaded after issuing the CLI for the change to take effect. Converting a QSFP or QSFP+ Port to an SFP or SFP+ Port You can convert a QSFP or QSFP+ port to an SFP or SFP+ port using the Quad to Small Form Factor Pluggable Adapter (QSA).
module that has SFP or SFP+ optical cables plugged in, Dell Networking OS generates an SFP or SFP+ Removed event. • The QSA module does not have a designated EEPROM.

Enabling Link Dampening To enable link dampening, use the following command. • Enable link dampening. INTERFACE mode dampening Examples of the show interfaces dampening Commands To view the link dampening configuration on an interface, use the show config command. R1(conf-if-te-1/1)#show config ! interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 ip address 10.10.19.
Link Dampening Support for XML View the output of the following show commands in XML by adding | display xml to the end of the command. • show interfaces dampening • show interfaces dampening summary • show interfaces interface x/y Configure MTU Size on an Interface In Dell Networking OS, Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is defined as the entire Ethernet packet (Ethernet header + FCS + payload). The link MTU is the frame size of a packet, and the IP MTU size is used for IP fragmentation.
Using Ethernet Pause Frames for Flow Control Ethernet pause frames and threshold settings are supported on the Dell Networking OS. Ethernet Pause Frames allow for a temporary stop in data transmission. A situation may arise where a sending device may transmit data faster than a destination device can accept it. The destination sends a PAUSE frame back to the source, stopping the sender’s transmission for a period of time.
NOTE: If you disable rx flow control, Dell Networking recommends rebooting the system. The flow control sender and receiver must be on the same port-pipe. Flow control is not supported across different port-pipes. To enable pause frames, use the following command. • Control how the system responds to and generates 802.3x pause frames on the Ethernet ports.
Port Channels: • All members must have the same link MTU value and the same IP MTU value. • The port channel link MTU and IP MTU must be less than or equal to the link MTU and IP MTU values configured on the channel members. For example, if the members have a link MTU of 2100 and an IP MTU 2000, the port channel’s MTU values cannot be higher than 2100 for link MTU or 2000 bytes for IP MTU. VLANs: • All members of a VLAN must have the same IP MTU value. • Members can have different Link MTU values.
Setting the Speed and Duplex Mode of Ethernet Interfaces To discover whether the remote and local interface requires manual speed synchronization, and to manually synchronize them if necessary, use the following command sequence. 1. Determine the local interface status. Refer to the following example. EXEC Privilege mode show interfaces [interface | stack—unit stack-unit-number] status 2. Determine the remote interface status.

In the following example, the speed of port 1/1 is set to 100Mb and then its auto-negotiation is disabled.
• Change the default interval between keepalive messages. INTERFACE mode • keepalive [seconds] View the new setting. INTERFACE mode show config View Advanced Interface Information The following options have been implemented for the show [ip | running-config] interfaces commands for (only) stack-unit interfaces. When you use the configured keyword, only interfaces that have non-default configurations are displayed.
Configuring the Interface Sampling Size Although you can enter any value between 30 and 299 seconds (the default), software polling is done once every 15 seconds. So, for example, if you enter “19”, you actually get a sample of the past 15 seconds. All LAG members inherit the rate interval configuration from the LAG.

Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) 23 Internet protocol security (IPSec) is an end-to-end security scheme for protecting IP communications by authenticating and encrypting all packets in a communication session. Use IPSec between hosts, between gateways, or between hosts and gateways. IPSec is compatible with Telnet and FTP protocols. It supports two operational modes: Transport and Tunnel. • Transport mode — (default) Use to encrypt only the payload of the packet. Routing information is unchanged.
Configuring IPSec The following sample configuration shows how to configure FTP and telnet for IPSec. 1. Define the transform set. CONFIGURATION mode crypto ipsec transform-set myXform-seta esp-authentication md5 espencryption des 2. Define the crypto policy.
IPv4 Routing 24 The Dell Networking Operating System (OS) supports various IP addressing features. This chapter describes the basics of domain name service (DNS), address resolution protocol (ARP), and routing principles and their implementation in the Dell Networking OS.
Configuration Tasks for IP Addresses The following describes the tasks associated with IP address configuration. Configuration tasks for IP addresses includes: • Assigning IP Addresses to an Interface (mandatory) • Configuring Static Routes (optional) • Configure Static Routes for the Management Interface (optional) For a complete listing of all commands related to IP addressing, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Line Interface Reference Guide.
Example the show config Command To view the configuration, use the show config command in INTERFACE mode or use the show ip interface command in EXEC privilege mode, as shown in the second example. Dell(conf-if)#show conf ! interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 ip address 10.11.1.1/24 no shutdown ! Configuring Static Routes A static route is an IP address that you manually configure and that the routing protocol does not learn, such as open shortest path first (OSPF).

two devices, mainly over a public network, depending on the network load and speed, and it is not a consistent value. The MTU size can also be different for various types of traffic sent from one host to the same endpoint. Path MTU discovery (PMTD) identifies the path MTU value between the sender and the receiver, and uses the determined value to transmit packets across the network. PMTD, as described in RFC 1191, denotes that the default byte size of an IP packet is 576.
messages. feature is not supported on tunnel interfaces. ICMP error relay, PATH MTU transmission, and fragmented packets are not supported for tunnel interfaces. The traceroute utilities for IPv4 and IPv6 list the IP addresses of the devices in the hops of the path for which ICMP source interface is configured. Configuring the Duration to Establish a TCP Connection You can configure the duration for which the device must wait before it attempts to establish a TCP connection.
Resolution of Host Names Domain name service (DNS) maps host names to IP addresses. This feature simplifies commands such as Telnet and FTP by allowing you to enter a name instead of an IP address. Dynamic resolution of host names is disabled by default. Unless you enable the feature, the system resolves only host names entered into the host table with the ip host command. The following sections describe DNS and the resolution of host names.
Specifying the Local System Domain and a List of Domains If you enter a partial domain, Dell Networking OS can search different domains to finish or fully qualify that partial domain. A fully qualified domain name (FQDN) is any name that is terminated with a period/dot. Dell Networking OS searches the host table first to resolve the partial domain. The host table contains both statically configured and dynamically learnt host and IP addresses.
Example of the traceroute Command The following text is example output of DNS using the traceroute command. Dell#traceroute www.force10networks.com Translating "www.force10networks.com"...domain server (10.11.0.1) [OK] Type Ctrl-C to abort. ---------------------------------------------------------------------Tracing the route to www.force10networks.com (10.11.84.18), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets ---------------------------------------------------------------------TTL Hostname Probe1 Probe2 Probe3 1 10.11.
Configuring Static ARP Entries ARP dynamically maps the MAC and IP addresses, and while most network host support dynamic mapping, you can configure an ARP entry (called a static ARP) for the ARP cache. To configure a static ARP entry, use the following command. • Configure an IP address and MAC address mapping for an interface. CONFIGURATION mode arp vrf vrf-name ip-address mac-address interface – vrf vrf-name: use the VRF option to configure a static ARP on that particular VRF.
EXEC privilege clear arp-cache [interface | ip ip-address] [no-refresh] – ip ip-address (OPTIONAL): enter the keyword ip then the IP address of the ARP entry you wish to clear. – no-refresh (OPTIONAL): enter the keywords no-refresh to delete the ARP entry from CAM. Or to specify which dynamic ARP entries you want to delete, use this option with interface or ip ip-address. – For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port[/ subport] information.
Figure 53. ARP Learning via ARP Request Beginning with Dell Networking OS version 8.3.1.0, when you enable ARP learning via gratuitous ARP, the system installs a new ARP entry, or updates an existing entry for all received ARP requests. Figure 54. ARP Learning via ARP Request with ARP Learning via Gratuitous ARP Enabled Whether you enable or disable ARP learning via gratuitous ARP, the system does not look up the target IP.
• The range is from 1 to 20. Set the exponential timer for resending unresolved ARPs. CONFIGURATION mode arp backoff-time The default is 30. • The range is from 1 to 3600. Display all ARP entries learned via gratuitous ARP. EXEC Privilege mode show arp retries ICMP For diagnostics, the internet control message protocol (ICMP) provides routing information to end stations by choosing the best route (ICMP redirect messages) or determining if a router is reachable (ICMP Echo or Echo Reply).
UDP Helper User datagram protocol (UDP) helper allows you to direct the forwarding IP/UDP broadcast traffic by creating special broadcast addresses and rewriting the destination IP address of packets to match those addresses. Configure UDP Helper To configure Dell Networking OS to direct UDP broadcast, enable UDP helper and specify the UDP ports for which traffic is forwarded.
• Configure a broadcast address on an interface. ip udp-broadcast-address Examples of Configuring and Viewing a Broadcast Address Dell(conf-if-vl-100)#ip udp-broadcast-address 1.1.255.255 Dell(conf-if-vl-100)#show config ! interface Vlan 100 ip address 1.1.0.1/24 ip udp-broadcast-address 1.1.255.255 untagged TenGigabitEthernet 1/2 no shutdown To view the configured broadcast address for an interface, use show interfaces command.
1. It is flooded on VLAN 101 without changing the destination address because the forwarding process is Layer 2. 2. If you enabled UDP helper, the system changes the destination IP address to the configured broadcast address 1.1.255.255 and forwards the packet to VLAN 100. 3. Packet 2 is also forwarded to the ingress interface with an unchanged destination address because it does not have broadcast address configured. Figure 55.
UDP Helper with Configured Broadcast Addresses Incoming packets with a destination IP address matching the configured broadcast address of any interface are forwarded to the matching interfaces. In the following illustration, Packet 1 has a destination IP address that matches the configured broadcast address of VLAN 100 and 101. If you enabled UDP helper and the UDP port number matches, the packet is flooded on both VLANs with an unchanged destination address. Packet 2 is sent from a host on VLAN 101.

IPv6 Routing 25 Internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) routing is the successor to IPv4. Due to the rapid growth in internet users and IP addresses, IPv4 is reaching its maximum usage. IPv6 will eventually replace IPv4 usage to allow for the constant expansion. This chapter provides a brief description of the differences between IPv4 and IPv6, and the Dell Networking support of IPv6. This chapter is not intended to be a comprehensive description of IPv6.
• Prefix Renumbering — Useful in transparent renumbering of hosts in the network when an organization changes its service provider. NOTE: As an alternative to stateless autoconfiguration, network hosts can obtain their IPv6 addresses using the dynamic host control protocol (DHCP) servers via stateful auto-configuration. NOTE: Dell Networking OS provides the flexibility to add prefixes on Router Advertisements (RA) to advertise responses to Router Solicitations (RS).
IPv6 Header Fields The 40 bytes of the IPv6 header are ordered, as shown in the following illustration. Figure 58. IPv6 Header Fields Version (4 bits) The Version field always contains the number 6, referring to the packet’s IP version. Traffic Class (8 bits) The Traffic Class field deals with any data that needs special handling. These bits define the packet priority and are defined by the packet Source. Sending and forwarding routers use this field to identify different IPv6 classes and priorities.
Value Description 0 Hop-by-Hop option header 4 IPv4 6 TCP 8 Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP) 41 IPv6 43 Routing header 44 Fragmentation header 50 Encrypted Security 51 Authentication header 59 No Next Header 60 Destinations option header NOTE: This table is not a comprehensive list of Next Header field values. For a complete and current listing, refer to the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) web page at .
Extension headers are processed in the order in which they appear in the packet header. Hop-by-Hop Options Header The Hop-by-Hop options header contains information that is examined by every router along the packet’s path. It follows the IPv6 header and is designated by the Next Header value 0 (zero). When a Hop-by-Hop Options header is not included, the router knows that it does not have to process any router specific information and immediately processes the packet to its final destination.
All the addresses in the following list are all valid and equivalent. • 2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:0000:1428:57ab • 2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000::1428:57ab • 2001:0db8:0:0:0:0:1428:57ab • 2001:0db8:0:0::1428:57ab • 2001:0db8::1428:57ab • 2001:db8::1428:57ab IPv6 networks are written using classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) notation.

Figure 59. Path MTU Discovery Process IPv6 Neighbor Discovery The IPv6 neighbor discovery protocol (NDP) is a top-level protocol for neighbor discovery on an IPv6 network. In place of address resolution protocol (ARP), NDP uses “Neighbor Solicitation” and “Neighbor Advertisement” ICMPv6 messages for determining relationships between neighboring nodes.
Figure 60. NDP Router Redirect IPv6 Neighbor Discovery of MTU Packets You can set the MTU advertised through the RA packets to incoming routers, without altering the actual MTU setting on the interface. The ipv6 nd mtu command sets the value advertised to routers. It does not set the actual MTU rate. For example, if you set ipv6 nd mtu to 1280, the interface still passes 1500-byte packets, if that is what is set with the mtu command.
The DNS server address does not allow the following: • link local addresses • loopback addresses • prefix addresses • multicast addresses • invalid host addresses If you specify this information in the IPv6 RDNSS configuration, a DNS error is displayed. Example for Configuring an IPv6 Recursive DNS Server The following example configures a RDNNS server with an IPv6 address of 1000::1 and a lifetime of 1 second.
Displaying IPv6 RDNSS Information To display IPv6 interface information, including IPv6 RDNSS information, use the show ipv6 interface command in EXEC or EXEC Privilege mode. Examples of Displaying IPv6 RDNSS Information The following example displays IPv6 RDNSS information. The output in the last 3 lines indicates that the IPv6 RDNSS was correctly configured on interface te 1/1.
For SSH configuration details, refer to the Security chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Line Interface Reference Guide. Configuration Tasks for IPv6 The following are configuration tasks for the IPv6 protocol.
• Provides information on FP groups allocated for the egress acl. CONFIGURATION mode show cam-acl-egress Allocate at least one group for L2ACL and IPv4 ACL. The total number of groups is 4. Assigning an IPv6 Address to an Interface Essentially, IPv6 is enabled in Dell Networking OS simply by assigning IPv6 addresses to individual router interfaces. You can use IPv6 and IPv4 together on a system, but be sure to differentiate that usage carefully.

iSCSI Optimization 26 This chapter describes how to configure internet small computer system interface (iSCSI) optimization, which enables quality-of-service (QoS) treatment for iSCSI traffic.
• iSCSI monitoring sessions — the switch monitors and tracks active iSCSI sessions in connections on the switch, including port information and iSCSI session information. • iSCSI QoS — A user-configured iSCSI class of service (CoS) profile is applied to all iSCSI traffic. Classifier rules are used to direct the iSCSI data traffic to queues that can be given preferential QoS treatment over other data passing through the switch.
Monitoring iSCSI Traffic Flows The switch snoops iSCSI session-establishment and termination packets by installing classifier rules that trap iSCSI protocol packets to the CPU for examination. Devices that initiate iSCSI sessions usually use well-known TCP ports 3260 or 860 to contact targets. When you enable iSCSI optimization, by default the switch identifies IP packets to or from these ports as iSCSI traffic.
If more than 256 simultaneous sessions are logged continuously, the following message displays indicating the queue rate limit has been reached: %STKUNIT2-M:CP %iSCSI-5-ISCSI_OPT_MAX_SESS_EXCEEDED: New iSCSI Session Ignored: ISID 400001370000 InitiatorName - iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:dt-brcd-cna-2 TargetName iqn.2001-05.com.equallogic:4-52aed6-b90d9446c-162466364804fa49-wj-v1 TSIH - 0" NOTE: If you are using EqualLogic or Compellent storage arrays, more than 256 simultaneous iSCSI sessions are possible.
Configuring Detection and Ports for Dell Compellent Arrays To configure a port connected to a Dell Compellent storage array, use the following command. • Configure a port connected to a Dell Compellent storage array. INTERFACE Configuration mode iscsi profile-compellent The command configures a port for the best iSCSI traffic conditions.
iSCSI optimization, which can turn on flow control again on reboot, use the no iscsi enable command and save the configuration. When you enable iSCSI on the switch, the following actions occur: • Link-level flow control is globally enabled, if it is not already enabled, and PFC is disabled. • iSCSI session snooping is enabled. • iSCSI LLDP monitoring starts to automatically detect EqualLogic arrays.
Parameter Default Value but can be removed as any other configured target. iSCSI session monitoring Disabled. The CAM allocation for iSCSI is set to zero (0). iSCSI Optimization Prerequisites The following are iSCSI optimization prerequisites. • iSCSI optimization requires LLDP on the switch. LLDP is enabled by default (refer to Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)). • iSCSI optimization requires configuring two ingress ACL groups The ACL groups are allocated after iSCSI Optimization is configured.
EXEC Privilege mode write memory 5. Reload the switch. EXEC Privilege mode reload After the switch is reloaded, DCB/ DCBx and iSCSI monitoring are enabled. 6. (Optional) Configure the iSCSI target ports and optionally the IP addresses on which iSCSI communication is monitored. CONFIGURATION mode [no] iscsi target port tcp-port-1 [tcp-port-2...tcp-port-16] [ip-address address] • tcp-port-n is the TCP port number or a list of TCP port numbers on which the iSCSI target listens to requests.

Intermediate System to Intermediate System 27 The intermediate system to intermediate system (IS-IS) protocol that uses a shortest-path-first algorithm. Dell Networking supports both IPv4 and IPv6 versions of IS-IS. IS-IS Protocol Overview The IS-IS protocol, developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), is an interior gateway protocol (IGP) that uses a shortest-path-first algorithm.
• • system address — the router’s MAC address. N-selector — this is always 0. The following illustration is an example of the ISO-style address to show the address format IS-IS uses. In this example, the first five bytes (47.0005.0001) are the area address. The system portion is 000c.000a. 4321 and the last byte is always 0. Figure 62. ISO Address Format Multi-Topology IS-IS Multi-topology IS-IS (MT IS-IS) allows you to create multiple IS-IS topologies on a single router with separate databases.
Interface Support MT IS-IS is supported on physical Ethernet interfaces, physical synchronous optical network technologies (SONET) interfaces, port-channel interfaces (static and dynamic using LACP), and virtual local area network (VLAN) interfaces. Adjacencies Adjacencies on point-to-point interfaces are formed as usual, where IS-IS routers do not implement MT extensions.
• The T3 timer sets the overall wait time after which the router determines that it has failed to achieve database synchronization (by setting the overload bit in its own LSP). You can base this timer on adjacency settings with the value derived from adjacent routers that are engaged in graceful restart recovery (the minimum of all the Remaining Time values advertised by the neighbors) or by setting a specific amount of time manually.
IS-IS Parameter Default Value Circuit Type Level 1 and Level 2 IS Type Level 1 and Level 2 Equal Cost Multi Paths 16 Configuration Information To use IS-IS, you must configure and enable IS-IS in two or three modes: CONFIGURATION ROUTER ISIS, CONFIGURATION INTERFACE, and ( when configuring for IPv6) ADDRESS-FAMILY mode. Commands in ROUTER ISIS mode configure IS-IS globally, while commands executed in INTERFACE mode enable and configure IS-IS features on that interface only.
To configure IS-IS globally, use the following commands. 1. Create an IS-IS routing process. CONFIGURATION mode router isis [tag] tag: (optional) identifies the name of the IS-IS process. 2. Configure an IS-IS network entity title (NET) for a routing process. ROUTER ISIS mode net network-entity-title Specify the area address and system ID for an IS-IS routing process. The last byte must be 00. For more information about configuring a NET, refer to IS-IS Addressing. 3.
ip router isis [tag] If you configure a tag variable, it must be the same as the tag variable assigned in step 1. 7. Enable IS-IS on the IPv6 interface. ROUTER ISIS mode ipv6 router isis [tag] If you configure a tag variable, it must be the same as the tag variable assigned in step 1. Examples of the show isis Commands The default IS type is level-1-2. To change the IS type to Level 1 only or Level 2 only, use the is-type command in ROUTER ISIS mode.
You can assign more NET addresses, but the System ID portion of the NET address must remain the same. Dell Networking OS supports up to six area addresses. Some address considerations are: • In order to be neighbors, configure Level 1 routers with at least one common area address. • A Level 2 router becomes a neighbor with another Level 2 router regardless of the area address configured. However, if the area addresses are different, the link between the Level 2 routers is only at Level 2.
• graceful-restart ietf Configure the time during which the graceful restart attempt is prevented. ROUTER-ISIS mode graceful-restart interval minutes The range is from 1 to 120 minutes. • The default is 5 minutes. Enable the graceful restart maximum wait time before a restarting peer comes up. ROUTER-ISIS mode graceful-restart restart-wait seconds When implementing this command, be sure to set the t3 timer to adjacency on the restarting router. The range is from 1 to 120 minutes.
Examples of the show isis graceful-restart detail Command NOTE: If this timer expires before the synchronization has completed, the restarting router sends the overload bit in the LSP. The 'overload' bit is an indication to the receiving router that database synchronization did not complete at the restarting router. To view all graceful restart-related configurations, use the show isis graceful-restart detail command in EXEC Privilege mode.
LSP Interval: 33 Restart Capable Neighbors: 2, In Start: 0, In Restart: 0 Dell# Changing LSP Attributes IS-IS routers flood link state PDUs (LSPs) to exchange routing information. LSP attributes include the generation interval, maximum transmission unit (MTU) or size, and the refresh interval. You can modify the LSP attribute defaults, but it is not necessary. To change the defaults, use any or all of the following commands. • Set interval between LSP generation.
Configuring the IS-IS Metric Style All IS-IS links or interfaces are associated with a cost that is used in the shortest path first (SPF) calculations. The possible cost varies depending on the metric style supported. If you configure narrow, transition, or narrow transition metric style, the cost can be a number between 0 and 63. If you configure wide or wide transition metric style, the cost can be a number between 0 and 16,777,215.
System Id: EEEE.EEEE.EEEE IS-Type: level-1-2 Manual area address(es): 47.0004.004d.0001 Routing for area address(es): 21.2223.2425.2627.2829.3031.3233 47.0004.004d.
To view the interface’s current metric, use the show config command in INTERFACE mode or the show isis interface command in EXEC Privilege mode. Configuring the Distance of a Route To configure the distance for a route, use the following command. • Configure the distance for a route. ROUTER ISIS mode distance Changing the IS-Type To change the IS-type, use the following commands. You can configure the system to act as a Level 1 router, a Level 1-2 router, or a Level 2 router.
Controlling Routing Updates To control the source of IS-IS route information, use the following command. • Disable a specific interface from sending or receiving IS-IS routing information. ROUTER ISIS mode passive-interface interface – For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port[/ subport] information. – For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information.
– connected: for directly connected routes. – ospf process-id: for OSPF routes only. – rip: for RIP routes only. – static: for user-configured routes. • – bgp: for BGP routes only. Deny RTM download for pre-existing redistributed IPv4 routes. ROUTER ISIS mode distribute-list redistributed-override in Applying IPv6 Routes To apply prefix lists to incoming or outgoing IPv6 routes, use the following commands. NOTE: These commands apply to IPv6 IS-IS only.
Redistributing IPv4 Routes In addition to filtering routes, you can add routes from other routing instances or protocols to the IS-IS process. With the redistribute command syntax, you can include BGP, OSPF, RIP, static, or directly connected routes in the IS-IS process.

28 Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) A link aggregation group (LAG), referred to as a port channel by the Dell Networking OS, can provide both load-sharing and port redundancy across line cards. You can enable LAGs as static or dynamic. Introduction to Dynamic LAGs and LACP A link aggregation group (LAG), referred to as a port channel by Dell Networking OS, can provide both load-sharing and port redundancy across line cards. You can enable LAGs as static or dynamic.
• A dynamic LAG can be created with any type of configuration. • There is a difference between the shutdown and no interface port-channel commands: – The shutdown command on LAG “xyz” disables the LAG and retains the user commands. However, the system does not allow the channel number “xyz” to be statically created. – The no interface port-channel channel-number command deletes the specified LAG, including a dynamically created LAG.
• Configure LACP mode. LACP mode [no] port-channel number mode [active | passive | off] – number: cannot statically contain any links. • The default is LACP active. Configure port priority. LACP mode [no] lacp port-priority priority-value The range is from 1 to 65535 (the higher the number, the lower the priority). The default is 32768. LACP Configuration Tasks The following configuration tasks apply to LACP.
Configuring the LAG Interfaces as Dynamic After creating a LAG, configure the dynamic LAG interfaces. To configure the dynamic LAG interfaces, use the following command. • Configure the dynamic LAG interfaces.

Figure 64. Shared LAG State Tracking To avoid packet loss, redirect traffic through the next lowest-cost link (R3 to R4). Dell Networking OS has the ability to bring LAG 2 down if LAG 1 fails, so that traffic can be redirected. This redirection is what is meant by shared LAG state tracking. To achieve this functionality, you must group LAG 1 and LAG 2 into a single entity, called a failover group. Configuring Shared LAG State Tracking To configure shared LAG state tracking, you configure a failover group.
As shown in the following illustration, LAGs 1 and 2 are members of a failover group. LAG 1 fails and LAG 2 is brought down after the failure. This effect is logged by Message 1, in which a console message declares both LAGs down at the same time. Figure 65.
• If a LAG moves to the Down state due to this feature, its members may still be in the Up state. LACP Basic Configuration Example The screenshots in this section are based on the following example topology. Two routers are named ALPHA and BRAVO, and their hostname prompts reflect those names. Figure 66. LACP Basic Configuration Example Configure a LAG on ALPHA The following example creates a LAG on ALPHA.

Figure 72. Inspecting the LAG Status Using the show lacp command The point-to-point protocol (PPP) is a connection-oriented protocol that enables layer two links over various different physical layer connections. It is supported on both synchronous and asynchronous lines, and can operate in Half-Duplex or Full-Duplex mode. It was designed to carry IP traffic but is general enough to allow any type of network layer datagram to be sent over a PPP connection.
Layer 2 29 This chapter describes the Layer 2 features supported on the device. Manage the MAC Address Table You can perform the following management tasks in the MAC address table. • Clearing the MAC Address Table • Setting the Aging Time for Dynamic Entries • Configuring a Static MAC Address • Displaying the MAC Address Table Clearing the MAC Address Table You may clear the MAC address table of dynamic entries. To clear a MAC address table, use the following command.
The range is from 10 to 1000000. Configuring a Static MAC Address A static entry is one that is not subject to aging. Enter static entries manually. To create a static MAC address entry, use the following command. • Create a static MAC address entry in the MAC address table. CONFIGURATION mode mac-address-table static Displaying the MAC Address Table To display the MAC address table, use the following command. • Display the contents of the MAC address table.
interface) before the system verifies that sufficient CAM space exists. If the CAM check fails, a message is displayed: %E90MH:5 %ACL_AGENT-2-ACL_AGENT_LIST_ERROR: Unable to apply access-list MacLimit on TenGigabitEthernet 4/24 In this case, the configuration is still present in the running-config and show output. Remove the configuration before re-applying a MAC learning limit with a lower value. Also, ensure that you can view the Syslog messages on your session.
mac learning-limit mac-address-sticky Using sticky MAC addresses allows you to associate a specific port with MAC addresses from trusted devices. If you enable sticky MAC, the specified port retains any dynamically-learned addresses and prevents them from being transferred or learned on other ports. If you configure mac-learning-limit and you enabled sticky MAC, all dynamically-learned addresses are converted to sticky MAC addresses for the selected port.
no ip address switchport mac learning-limit 1 dynamic no-station-move mac learning-limit station-move-violation log no shutdown Learning Limit Violation Actions To configure the system to take an action when the MAC learning limit is reached on an interface and a new address is received using one the following options with the mac learning-limit command, use the following commands. • Generate a system log message when the MAC learning limit is exceeded.
NOTE: When the MAC learning limit (MLL) is configured as no-station-move, the MLL will be processed as static entries internally. For static entries, the MAC address will be installed in all port-pipes, irrespective of the VLAN membership. Recovering from Learning Limit and Station Move Violations After a learning-limit or station-move violation shuts down an interface, you must manually reset it. To reset the learning limit, use the following commands.
When you use NIC teaming, consider that the server MAC address is originally learned on Port 0/1 of the switch (shown in the following) and Port 0/5 is the failover port. When the NIC fails, the system automatically sends an ARP request for the gateway or host NIC to resolve the ARP and refresh the egress interface. When the ARP is resolved, the same MAC address is learned on the same port where the ARP is resolved (in the previous example, this location is Port 0/5 of the switch).
Apply all other configurations to each interface in the redundant pair such that their configurations are identical, so that transition to the backup interface in the event of a failure is transparent to rest of the network. Figure 75. Configuring Redundant Layer 2 Pairs without Spanning Tree You configure a redundant pair by assigning a backup interface to a primary interface with the switchport backup interface command.
To ensure that existing network applications see no difference when a primary interface in a redundant pair transitions to the backup interface, be sure to apply identical configurations of other traffic parameters to each interface. If you remove an interface in a redundant link (remove the line card of a physical interface or delete a port channel with the no interface port-channel command), the redundant pair configuration is also removed.

Figure 76. Configuring Far-End Failure Detection The report consists of several packets in SNAP format that are sent to the nearest known MAC address. In the event of a far-end failure, the device stops receiving frames and, after the specified time interval, assumes that the far-end is not available. The connecting line protocol is brought down so that upper layer protocols can detect the neighbor unavailability faster. FEFD State Changes FEFD has two operational modes, Normal and Aggressive.
4. If the FEFD enabled system is configured to use FEFD in Normal mode and neighboring echoes are not received after three intervals, (you can set each interval can be set between 3 and 300 seconds) the state changes to unknown. 5. If the FEFD system has been set to Aggressive mode and neighboring echoes are not received after three intervals, the state changes to Err-disabled.
To report interval frequency and mode adjustments, use the following commands. 1. Setup two or more connected interfaces for Layer 2 or Layer 3. INTERFACE mode ip address ip address, switchport 2. Enable the necessary ports administratively. INTERFACE mode no shutdown 3. Enable fefd globally. CONFIGURATION mode fefd-global {interval | mode} Example of the show fefd Command To display information about the state of each interface, use the show fefd command in EXEC privilege mode.
Disabling an interface shuts down all protocols working on that interface’s connected line. It does not delete your previous FEFD configuration which you can enable again at any time. To set up and activate two or more connected interfaces, use the following commands. 1. Setup two or more connected interfaces for Layer 2 or Layer 3. INTERFACE mode ip address ip address, switchport 2. Activate the necessary ports administratively. INTERFACE mode no shutdown 3.

Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) 30 This chapter describes how to configure and use the link layer discovery protocol (LLDP). 802.1AB (LLDP) Overview LLDP — defined by IEEE 802.1AB — is a protocol that enables a local area network (LAN) device to advertise its configuration and receive configuration information from adjacent LLDP-enabled LAN infrastructure devices.
Table 51. Type, Length, Value (TLV) Types Type TLV Description 0 End of LLDPDU Marks the end of an LLDPDU. 1 Chassis ID An administratively assigned name that identifies the LLDP agent. 2 Port ID An administratively assigned name that identifies a port through which TLVs are sent and received. 3 Time to Live An administratively assigned name that identifies a port through which TLVs are sent and received.

Advertise the extended power via MDI on all ports that are connected to an 802.3af powered, LLDP-MED endpoint device. • Power Type — there are two possible power types: power source entity (PSE) or power device (PD). The Dell Networking system is a PSE, which corresponds to a value of 0, based on the TIA-1057 specification.
• Dell Networking systems support up to eight neighbors per interface. • Dell Networking systems support a maximum of 8000 total neighbors per system. If the number of interfaces multiplied by eight exceeds the maximum, the system does not configure more than 8000. • INTERFACE level configurations override all CONFIGURATION level configurations. • LLDP is not hitless. LLDP Compatibility • Spanning tree and force10 ring protocol “blocked” ports allow LLDPDUs. • 802.
Enabling LLDP LLDP is enabled by default. Enable and disable LLDP globally or per interface. If you enable LLDP globally, all UP interfaces send periodic LLDPDUs. To enable LLDP, use the following command. 1. Enter Protocol LLDP mode. CONFIGURATION or INTERFACE mode protocol lldp 2. Enable LLDP.

Microsoft Network Load Balancing 31 Network load balancing (NLB) is a clustering functionality that is implemented by Microsoft on Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003 operating systems (OSs). NLB uses a distributed methodology or pattern to equally split and balance the network traffic load across a set of servers that are part of the cluster or group.
With NLB, the data frame forwards to all the servers for them to perform load-balancing. NLB Multicast Mode Scenario Consider a sample topology in which you configure four servers, S1 through S4, as a cluster or a farm. This set of servers connects to a Layer 3 switch, which connects to the end-clients. They contain a single multicast MAC address (MAC-Cluster: 03-00-5E-11-11-11).
Enable and Disable VLAN Flooding • The older ARP entries are overwritten whenever newer NLB entries are learned. • All ARP entries, learned after you enable VLAN flooding, are deleted when you disable VLAN flooding, and RP2 triggers an ARP resolution. Disable VLAN flooding with the no ip vlan-flooding command. • When you add a port to the VLAN, the port automatically receives traffic if you enabled VLAN flooding. Old ARP entries are not deleted or updated.

Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) 32 Multicast source discovery protocol (MSDP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Protocol Overview MSDP is a Layer 3 protocol that connects IPv4 protocol-independent multicast-sparse mode (PIM-SM) domains. A domain in the context of MSDP is a contiguous set of routers operating PIM within a common boundary defined by an exterior gateway protocol, such as border gateway protocol (BGP).
Figure 85. Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) RPs advertise each (S,G) in its domain in type, length, value (TLV) format. The total number of TLVs contained in the SA is indicated in the “Entry Count” field. SA messages are transmitted every 60 seconds, and immediately when a new source is detected. Figure 86.
Anycast RP Using MSDP, anycast RP provides load sharing and redundancy in PIM-SM networks. Anycast RP allows two or more rendezvous points (RPs) to share the load for source registration and the ability to act as hot backup routers for each other. Anycast RP allows you to configure two or more RPs with the same IP address on Loopback interfaces. The Anycast RP Loopback address are configured with a 32-bit mask, making it a host address.

Multicast sources in remote domains are stored on the RP in the source-active cache (SA cache).
Limiting the Source-Active Cache Set the upper limit of the number of active sources that the Dell Networking OS caches. The default active source limit is 500K messages. When the total number of active sources reaches the specified limit, subsequent active sources are dropped even if they pass the reverse path forwarding (RPF) and policy check. To limit the number of sources that SA cache stores, use the following command. • Limit the number of sources that can be stored in the SA cache.

Example of Verifying the System is not Caching Local Sources When you apply this filter, the SA cache is not affected immediately. When sources that are denied by the ACL time out, they are not refreshed. Until they time out, they continue to reside in the cache. To apply the redistribute filter to entries already present in the SA cache, first clear the SA cache. You may optionally store denied sources in the rejected SA cache.

Anycast RP relieves these limitations by allowing multiple RPs per group, which can be distributed in a topologically significant manner according to the locations of the sources and receivers. 1. All the RPs serving a given group are configured with an identical anycast address. 2. Sources then register with the topologically closest RP. 3. RPs use MSDP to peer with each other using a unique address. Figure 95.

33 Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) Multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP) — specified in IEEE 802.1Q-2003 — is a rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP)-based spanning tree variation that improves per-VLAN spanning tree plus (PVST+). MSTP allows multiple spanning tree instances and allows you to map many VLANs to one spanning tree instance to reduce the total number of required instances. Protocol Overview MSTP — specified in IEEE 802.
Spanning Tree Variations The Dell Networking OS supports four variations of spanning tree, as shown in the following table. Table 61. Spanning Tree Variations Dell Networking Term IEEE Specification Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) 802 .1d Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) 802 .1w Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) 802 .
• Prevent Network Disruptions with BPDU Guard • Enabling SNMP Traps for Root Elections and Topology Changes • Configuring Spanning Trees as Hitless Enable Multiple Spanning Tree Globally MSTP is not enabled by default. To enable MSTP globally, use the following commands. When you enable MSTP, all physical, VLAN, and port-channel interfaces that are enabled and in Layer 2 mode are automatically part of the MSTI 0. • Within an MSTI, only one path from any bridge to any other bridge is enabled.
Specify the keyword vlan then the VLANs that you want to participate in the MSTI. Examples of Configuring and Viewing MSTI The following examples shows the msti command. Dell(conf)#protocol spanning-tree mstp Dell(conf-mstp)#msti 1 vlan 100 Dell(conf-mstp)#msti 2 vlan 200-300 Dell(conf-mstp)#show config ! protocol spanning-tree mstp no disable MSTI 1 VLAN 100 MSTI 2 VLAN 200-300 All bridges in the MSTP region must have the same VLAN-to-instance mapping.
Influencing MSTP Root Selection MSTP determines the root bridge, but you can assign one bridge a lower priority to increase the probability that it becomes the root bridge. To change the bridge priority, use the following command. • Assign a number as the bridge priority. PROTOCOL MSTP mode msti instance bridge-priority priority A lower number increases the probability that the bridge becomes the root bridge. The range is from 0 to 61440, in increments of 4096. The default is 32768.
Changing the Region Name or Revision To change the region name or revision, use the following commands. • Change the region name. PROTOCOL MSTP mode • name name Change the region revision number. PROTOCOL MSTP mode revision number Example of the name Command To view the current region name and revision, use the show spanning-tree mst configuration command from EXEC Privilege mode.
PROTOCOL MSTP mode hello-time seconds NOTE: With large configurations (especially those configurations with more ports) Dell Networking recommends increasing the hello-time. The range is from 1 to 10. The default is 2 seconds. 3. Change the max-age parameter. PROTOCOL MSTP mode max-age seconds The range is from 6 to 40. The default is 20 seconds. 4. Change the max-hops parameter. PROTOCOL MSTP mode max-hops number The range is from 1 to 40. The default is 20.
The following lists the default values for port cost by interface. Table 62. Default Values for Port Costs by Interface Port Cost Default Value 100-Mb/s Ethernet interfaces 200000 1-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 20000 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 2000 Port Channel with 100 Mb/s Ethernet interfaces 180000 Port Channel with 1-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 18000 Port Channel with 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 1800 To change the port cost or priority of an interface, use the following commands. 1.
INTERFACE mode spanning-tree mstp edge-port [bpduguard | shutdown-on-violation] Dell Networking OS Behavior: Regarding bpduguard shutdown-on-violation behavior: – If the interface to be shut down is a port channel, all the member ports are disabled in the hardware. – When you add a physical port to a port channel already in the Error Disable state, the new member port is also disabled in the hardware.

Multicast Features 34 Dell Networking OS supports the following multicast protocols: NOTE: Multicast routing is supported on secondary IP addresses; it is not supported on IPv6. NOTE: Multicast routing is supported across default and non-default VRFs. • PIM Sparse-Mode (PIM-SM) • Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) • Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) Enabling IP Multicast Before enabling any multicast protocols, you must enable IP multicast routing.
Protocol Ethernet Address RIP 01:00:5e:00:00:09 NTP 01:00:5e:00:01:01 VRRP 01:00:5e:00:00:12 PIM-SM 01:00:5e:00:00:0d • The Dell Networking OS implementation of MTRACE is in accordance with IETF draft draft-fennertraceroute-ipm. • Multicast is not supported on secondary IP addresses. • Egress L3 ACL is not applied to multicast data traffic if you enable multicast routing. Multicast Policies The Dell Networking OS supports multicast features for IPv4.
• Limit the total number of multicast routes on the system. CONFIGURATION mode ip multicast-limit The range if from 1 to 16000. The default is 4000. NOTE: The IN-L3-McastFib CAM partition is used to store multicast routes and is a separate hardware limit that exists per port-pipe. Any software-configured limit may supersede this hardware space limitation.

Preventing a PIM Router from Processing a Join To permit or deny PIM Join/Prune messages on an interface using an extended IP access list, use the following command. NOTE: Dell Networking recommends not using the ip pim join-filter command on an interface between a source and the RP router. Using this command in this scenario could cause problems with the PIM-SM source registration process resulting in excessive traffic being sent to the CPU of both the RP and PIM DR of the source.
Object Tracking 35 IPv4 or IPv6 object tracking is available on Dell Networking OS. Object tracking allows the Dell Networking OS client processes, such as virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP), to monitor tracked objects (for example, interface or link status) and take appropriate action when the state of an object changes. NOTE: In Dell Networking OS release version 8.4.1.0, object tracking is supported only on VRRP.
Figure 100. Object Tracking Example When you configure a tracked object, such as an IPv4/IPv6 a route or interface, you specify an object number to identify the object. Optionally, you can also specify: • UP and DOWN thresholds used to report changes in a route metric. • A time delay before changes in a tracked object’s state are reported to a client. Track Layer 2 Interfaces You can create an object to track the line-protocol state of a Layer 2 interface.
Track IPv4 and IPv6 Routes You can create an object that tracks an IPv4 or IPv6 route entry in the routing table. Specify a tracked route by its IPv4 or IPv6 address and prefix-length. Optionally specify a tracked route by a virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) instance name if the route to be tracked is part of a VRF. The nexthop address is not part of the definition of the tracked object.
• The resolution value used to map static routes is not configurable. By default, Dell Networking OS assigns a metric of 0 to static routes. • The resolution value used to map router information protocol (RIP) routes is not configurable. The RIP hop-count is automatically multiplied by 16 to scale it; a RIP metric of 16 (unreachable) scales to 256, which considers the route to be DOWN.
• Port channel: Enter port-channel number, where valid port-channel numbers are from 1 to 128: • SONET: Enter sonet slot/port. • VLAN: Enter vlan vlan-id, where valid VLAN IDs are from 1 to 4094 A line-protocol object only tracks the link-level (UP/DOWN) status of a specified interface. When the linklevel status goes down, the tracked object status is DOWN; if the link-level status is up, the tracked object status is UP.
• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port[/ subport] information. • For a port channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number. • For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword vlan then a number from 1 to 4094. For an IPv4 interface, a routing object only tracks the UP/DOWN status of the specified IPv4 interface (the track interface ip-routing command).
Examples of Configuring Object Tracking for an IPv4 or IPv6 Interface Examples of Configuring Object Tracking for an IPv4 or IPv6 Interface The following is an example of configuring object tracking for an IPv4 interface: Dell(conf)#track 101 interface tengigabitethernet 7/2 ip routing Dell(conf-track-101)#delay up 20 Dell(conf-track-101)#description NYC metro Dell(conf-track-101)#end Dell#show track 101 Track 101 Interface TenGigabitEthernet 7/2 ip routing Description: NYC metro The following is an example
to a client always considers a lower value to have priority over a higher value. The resulting scaled value is compared against the configured threshold values to determine the state of a tracked route as follows: – If the scaled metric for a route entry is less than or equal to the UP threshold, the state of a route is UP. – If the scaled metric for a route is greater than or equal to the DOWN threshold or the route is not entered in the routing table, the state of a route is DOWN.
3. (Optional) Identify the tracked object with a text description. OBJECT TRACKING mode description text The text string can be up to 80 characters. 4. (Optional) Display the tracking configuration and the tracked object’s status. EXEC Privilege mode show track object-id Examples of IPv4 and IPv6 Tracking Route Reachability Examples of IPv4 and IPv6 Tracking Route Reachability The following example configures object tracking on the reachability of an IPv4 route: Dell(conf)#track 104 ip route 10.0.0.
The range of resolution values is: • 2. ISIS routes - 1 to 1000. The default is 1. • OSPF routes - 1 to 1592. The efault is 1. Configure object tracking on the metric of an IPv4 or IPv6 route. CONFIGURATION mode track object-id {ip route ip-address/prefix-len | ipv6 route ipv6-address/ prefix-len} metric threshold [vrf vrf-name] Valid object IDs are from 1 to 65535. Enter an IPv4 address in dotted decimal format. Valid IPv4 prefix lengths are from /0 to /32. Enter an IPv6 address in X:X:X:X::X format.
Example of IPv4 and IPv6 Tracking Metric Thresholds Example of IPv4 and IPv6 Tracking Metric Thresholds The following example configures object tracking on the metric threshold of an IPv4 route: Dell(conf)#track 6 ip route 2.1.1.0/24 metric threshold Dell(conf-track-6)#delay down 20 Dell(conf-track-6)#delay up 20 Dell(conf-track-6)#description track ip route metric Dell(conf-track-6)#threshold metric down 40 Dell(conf-track-6)#threshold metric up 40 Dell(conf-track-6)#exit Dell(conf)#track 10 ip route 3.1.

Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv2 and OSPFv3) 36 Open shortest path first (OSPFv2 for IPv4) and OSPF version 3 (OSPF for IPv6) are supported on Dell Networking OS. This chapter provides a general description of OSPFv2 (OSPF for IPv4) and OSPFv3 (OSPF for IPv6) as supported in the Dell Networking Operating System (OS). NOTE: The fundamental mechanisms of OSPF (flooding, DR election, area support, SPF calculations, and so on) are the same between OSPFv2 and OSPFv3.
Areas allow you to further organize your routers within in the AS. One or more areas are required within the AS. Areas are valuable in that they allow sub-networks to "hide" within the AS, thus minimizing the size of the routing tables on all routers. An area within the AS may not see the details of another area’s topology. AS areas are known by their area number or the router’s IP address. Figure 101. Autonomous System Areas Area Types The backbone of the network is Area 0. It is also called Area 0.0.0.
The backbone is the only area with a default area number. All other areas can have their Area ID assigned in the configuration. In the previous example, Routers A, B, C, G, H, and I are the Backbone. • A stub area (SA) does not receive external route information, except for the default route. These areas do receive information from inter-area (IA) routes. NOTE: Configure all routers within an assigned stub area as stubby, and not generate LSAs that do not apply.
Figure 102. OSPF Routing Examples Backbone Router (BR) A backbone router (BR) is part of the OSPF Backbone, Area 0. This includes all ABRs. It can also include any routers that connect only to the backbone and another ABR, but are only part of Area 0, such as Router I in the previous example. Area Border Router (ABR) Within an AS, an area border router (ABR) connects one or more areas to the backbone.
An ABR can connect to many areas in an AS, and is considered a member of each area it connects to. Autonomous System Border Router (ASBR) The autonomous system border area router (ASBR) connects to more than one AS and exchanges information with the routers in other ASs. Generally, the ASBR connects to a non-interior gate protocol (IGP) such as BGP or uses static routes.
• Type 5: LSA — These LSAs contain information imported into OSPF from other routing processes. They are flooded to all areas, except stub areas. The link-state ID of the Type 5 LSA is the external network number. • Type 7: External LSA — Routers in an NSSA do not receive external LSAs from ABRs, but are allowed to send external routing information for redistribution.
Router Priority and Cost Router priority and cost is the method the system uses to “rate” the routers. For example, if not assigned, the system selects the router with the highest priority as the DR. The second highest priority is the BDR. • Priority is a numbered rating 0 to 255. The higher the number, the higher the priority. • Cost is a numbered rating 1 to 65535. The higher the number, the greater the cost. The cost assigned reflects the cost should the router fail.
Dell Networking OS supports stub areas, totally stub (no summary) and not so stubby areas (NSSAs) and supports the following LSAs, as described earlier.
• Helper-reject role in which OSPF does not participate in the graceful restart of a neighbor. OSPFv2 supports helper-only and restarting-only roles. By default, both helper and restarting roles are enabled. OSPFv2 supports the helper-reject role globally on a router. OSPFv3 supports helper-only and restarting-only roles. The helper-only role is enabled by default. To enable the restarting role in addition to the helper-only role, configure a grace period.
Processing SNMP and Sending SNMP Traps Only the process in default vrf can process the SNMP requests and send SNMP traps. NOTE: SNMP gets request corresponding to the OspfNbrOption field in the OspfNbrTable returns a value of 66. OSPF ACK Packing The OSPF ACK packing feature bundles multiple LS acknowledgements in a single packet, significantly reducing the number of ACK packets transmitted when the number of LSAs increases.
Configuration Information The interfaces must be in Layer 3 mode (assigned an IP address) and enabled so that they can send and receive traffic. The OSPF process must know about these interfaces. To make the OSPF process aware of these interfaces, they must be assigned to OSPF areas. You must configure OSPF GLOBALLY on the system in CONFIGURATION mode. NOTE: Loop back routes are not installed in the Route Table Manager (RTM) as non-active routes.
Dell(conf-router_ospf-1)# Dell(conf-router_ospf-1)#show config ! router ospf 1 timers spf 2 5 Dell(conf-router_ospf-1)# Dell(conf-router_ospf-1)#end Dell# For a complete list of the OSPF commands, refer to the OSPF section in the Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide document. Enabling OSPFv2 To enable Layer 3 routing, assign an IP address to an interface (physical or Loopback). By default, OSPF, similar to all routing protocols, is disabled.
Assigning a Router ID In CONFIGURATION ROUTER OSPF mode, assign the router ID. The router ID is not required to be the router’s IP address. However, Dell Networking recommends using the IP address as the router ID for easier management and troubleshooting. Optional process-id commands are also described. • Assign the router ID for the OSPFv2 process. CONFIG-ROUTER-OSPF-id mode • router-id ip address Disable OSPF. CONFIGURATION mode • no router ospf process-id Reset the OSPFv2 process.
The IP Address Format is A.B.C.D/M. The area ID range is from 0 to 65535 or A.B.C.D/M. Enable OSPFv2 on Interfaces Enable and configure OSPFv2 on each interface (configure for Layer 3 protocol), and not shutdown. You can also assign OSPFv2 to a Loopback interface as a virtual interface. OSPF functions and features, such as MD5 Authentication, Grace Period, Authentication Wait Time, are assigned on a per interface basis.
TenGigabitEthernet 1/21 is up, line protocol is up Internet Address 10.2.3.1/24, Area 0.0.0.0 Process ID 1, Router ID 11.1.2.1, Network Type BROADCAST, Cost: 1 Transmit Delay is 1 sec, State BDR, Priority 1 Designated Router (ID) 13.1.1.1, Interface address 10.2.3.2 Backup Designated Router (ID) 11.1.2.1, Interface address 10.2.3.1 Timer intervals configured, Hello 10, Dead 40, Wait 40, Retransmit 5 Hello due in 00:00:05 Neighbor Count is 1, Adjacent neighbor count is 1 Adjacent with neighbor 13.1.1.
router ospf process-id [vrf] Process ID is the ID assigned when configuring OSPFv2 globally. 4. Configure the area as a stub area. CONFIG-ROUTER-OSPF-id mode area area-id stub [no-summary] Use the keywords no-summary to prevent transmission into the area of summary ASBR LSAs. Area ID is the number or IP address assigned when creating the area.
– For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword vlan then a number from 1 to 4094 (for example, passive-interface vlan 2222 ). The keyword default sets all interfaces on this OSPF process as passive. To remove the passive interface from select interfaces, use the no passive-interface interface command while passive interface default is configured. To enable both receiving and sending routing updates, use the no passive-interface interface command.
fast-convergence {number} The parameter range is from 1 to 4. The higher the number, the faster the convergence. When disabled, the parameter is set at 0. NOTE: A higher convergence level can result in occasional loss of OSPF adjacency. Generally, convergence level 1 meets most convergence requirements. Only select higher convergence levels following consultation with Dell Technical Support.
ip ospf dead-interval seconds – seconds: the range is from 1 to 65535 (the default is 40 seconds). The dead interval must be four times the hello interval. • The dead interval must be the same on all routers in the OSPF network. Change the time interval between hello-packet transmission. CONFIG-INTERFACE mode ip ospf hello-interval seconds – seconds: the range is from 1 to 65535 (the default is 10 seconds). • The hello interval must be the same on all routers in the OSPF network.
Example of Changing and Verifying the cost Parameter and Viewing Interface Status To view interface configurations, use the show config command in CONFIGURATION INTERFACE mode. To view interface status in the OSPF process, use the show ip ospf interface command in EXEC mode. The bold lines in the example show the change on the interface. The change is reflected in the OSPF configuration. Dell(conf-if)#ip ospf cost 45 Dell(conf-if)#show config ! interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 ip address 10.1.2.100 255.255.
This transmission stops when the period ends. The default is 0 seconds. Enabling OSPFv2 Graceful Restart Graceful restart is enabled for the global OSPF process. The Dell Networking implementation of OSPFv2 graceful restart enables you to specify: • grace period — the length of time the graceful restart process can last before OSPF terminates it. • helper-reject neighbors — the router ID of each restart router that does not receive assistance from the configured router.
By default, OSPFv2 supports both restarting and helper roles. Selecting one or the other role restricts OSPFv2 to the single selected role. To disable OSPFv2 graceful-restart after you have enabled it, use the no graceful-restart graceperiod command in CONFIG-ROUTEROSPF- id mode. The command returns OSPF graceful-restart to its default state. NOTE: The Helper mode is enabled by default on the device.
Applying Prefix Lists To apply prefix lists to incoming or outgoing OSPF routes, use the following commands. • Apply a configured prefix list to incoming OSPF routes. CONFIG-ROUTEROSPF-id mode • distribute-list prefix-list-name in [interface] Assign a configured prefix list to outgoing OSPF routes. CONFIG-ROUTEROSPF-id distribute-list prefix-list-name out [connected | isis | rip | static] Redistributing Routes You can add routes from other routing instances or protocols to the OSPF process.
NOTE: The following tasks are not a comprehensive; they provide some examples of typical troubleshooting checks.

The interfaces must be in IPv6 Layer-3 mode (assigned an IPv6 IP address) and enabled so that they can send and receive traffic. The OSPF process must know about these interfaces. To make the OSPF process aware of these interfaces, assign them to OSPF areas. The OSPFv3 ipv6 ospf area command enables OSPFv3 on the interface and places the interface in an area.
IPv6 addresses are normally written as eight groups of four hexadecimal digits; separate each group by a colon (:). The format is A:B:C::F/128. 2. Bring up the interface. CONF-INT-type slot/port mode no shutdown Assigning Area ID on an Interface To assign the OSPFv3 process to an interface, use the following command. The ipv6 ospf area command enables OSPFv3 on an interface and places the interface in the specified area. Additionally, the command creates the OSPFv3 process with ID on the router.
EXEC Privilege mode clear ipv6 ospf process Assigning OSPFv3 Process ID and Router ID to a VRF To assign, disable, or reset OSPFv3 on a non-default VRF, use the following commands. • Enable the OSPFv3 process on a non-default VRF and enter OSPFv3 mode.

header is designed to provide a combination of security services for both IPv4 and IPv6. Insert the ESP header after the IP header and before the next layer protocol header in Transport mode. It is possible to insert the ESP header between the next layer protocol header and encapsulated IP header in Tunnel mode. However, Tunnel mode is not supported in Dell Networking OS. For detailed information about the IP ESP protocol, refer to RFC 4303.
NOTE: To encrypt all keys on a router, use the service password-encryption command in Global Configuration mode. However, this command does not provide a high level of network security. To enable key encryption in an IPsec security policy at an interface or area level, specify 7 for [key-encryption-type] when you enter the ipv6 ospf authentication ipsec or ipv6 ospf encryption ipsec command.
Configuring IPsec Encryption on an Interface To configure, remove, or display IPsec encryption on an interface, use the following commands. Prerequisite: Before you enable IPsec encryption on an OSPFv3 interface, first enable IPv6 unicast routing globally, configure an IPv6 address and enable OSPFv3 on the interface, and assign it to an area (refer to Configuration Task List for OSPFv3 (OSPF for IPv6)).
Configuring IPSec Authentication for an OSPFv3 Area To configure, remove, or display IPSec authentication for an OSPFv3 area, use the following commands. Prerequisite: Before you enable IPsec authentication on an OSPFv3 area, first enable OSPFv3 globally on the router (refer to Configuration Task List for OSPFv3 (OSPF for IPv6)). The security policy index (SPI) value must be unique to one IPSec security policy (authentication or encryption) on the router.
The configuration of IPsec encryption on an interface-level takes precedence over an area-level configuration. If you remove an interface configuration, an area encryption policy that has been configured is applied to the interface. • Enable IPsec encryption for OSPFv3 packets in an area.
To display information on the SAs used on a specific interface, enter interface interface, where interface is one of the following values: – For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port[/ subport] information. – For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information. – For a port channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number. – For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword vlan then a number from 1 to 4094.

NOTE: The OSPFv2 network area command enables OSPF on multiple interfaces with the single command. Use the OSPFv3 ipv6 ospf area command on each interface that runs OSPFv3. All IPv6 addresses on an interface are included in the OSPFv3 process that is created on the interface. Enable OSPFv3 for IPv6 by specifying an OSPF process ID and an area in INTERFACE mode. If you have not created an OSPFv3 process, it is created automatically.
To return to the default bandwidth or to assign cost based on the interface type, use the no autocost [reference-bandwidth ref-bw] command. – ref-bw: The range is from 1 to 4294967. The default is 100 megabits per second. Assigning IPv6 Addresses on an Interface To assign IPv6 addresses to an interface, use the following commands. 1. Assign an IPv6 address to the interface.
CONF-IPV6-ROUTER-OSPF mode router-id {number} – number: the IPv4 address. The format is A.B.C.D. NOTE: Enter the router-id for an OSPFv3 router as an IPv4 IP address. • Disable OSPF.

You can represent the area ID as a number from 0 to 65536 if you assign a dotted decimal format rather than an IP address. Configuring Passive-Interface To suppress the interface’s participation on an OSPFv3 interface, use the following command. This command stops the router from sending updates on that interface.
Configuring a Default Route To generate a default external route into the OSPFv3 routing domain, configure the following parameters. To specify the information for the default route, use the following command. • Specify the information for the default route.
• Specify the operating mode and type of events that trigger a graceful restart. CONF-IPV6-ROUTER-OSPF mode graceful-restart mode [planned-only | unplanned-only] – Planned-only: the OSPFv3 router supports graceful restart only for planned restarts. A planned restart is when you manually enter a redundancy force-failover rpm command to force the primary RPM over to the secondary RPM. During a planned restart, OSPFv3 sends out a Grace LSA before the system switches over to the secondary RPM.
The following example shows the show ipv6 ospf database database-summary command. Dell#show ipv6 ospf database database-summary ! OSPFv3 Router with ID (200.1.1.
• Tunnel mode — is more secure and encrypts both the header and payload. On the receiving side, an IPsec-compliant device decrypts each packet. NOTE: Dell Networking OS supports only Transport Encryption mode in OSPFv3 authentication with IPsec. With IPsec-based authentication, Crypto images are used to include the IPsec secure socket application programming interface (API) required for use with OSPFv3.
• Manual key configuration is supported in an authentication or encryption policy (dynamic key configuration using the internet key exchange [IKE] protocol is not supported). • In an OSPFv3 authentication policy: – AH is used to authenticate OSPFv3 headers and certain fields in IPv6 headers and extension headers. – MD5 and SHA1 authentication types are supported; encrypted and unencrypted keys are supported. • In an OSPFv3 encryption policy: – Both encryption and authentication are used.
– key-encryption-type: (optional) specifies if the key is encrypted. The valid values are 0 (key is not encrypted) or 7 (key is encrypted). • • – key: specifies the text string used in authentication. All neighboring OSPFv3 routers must share key to exchange information. For MD5 authentication, the key must be 32 hex digits (nonencrypted) or 64 hex digits (encrypted). For SHA-1 authentication, the key must be 40 hex digits (non-encrypted) or 80 hex digits (encrypted).

Policy-based Routing (PBR) 37 Policy-based Routing (PBR) allows a switch to make routing decisions based on policies applied to an interface. Overview When a router receives a packet it normally decides where to forward it based on the destination address in the packet, which is used to look up an entry in a routing table. However, in some cases, there may be a need to forward the packet based on other criteria: size, source, protocol type, destination, and so on.
To enable a PBR, create a redirect list. Redirect lists are defined by rules, or routing policies. You can define following parameters in routing policies or rules: • • • • • • • IP address of the forwarding router (next-hop IP address) Protocol as defined in the header Source IP address and mask Destination IP address and mask Source port Destination port TCP Flags After a redirect-list is applied to an interface, all traffic passing through it is subjected to the rules defined in the redirect-list.
Defined as: seq 5 permit ip 200.200.200.200 200.200.200.200 199.199.199.199 199.199.199.199 seq 10 redirect 1.1.1.2 tcp 234.224.234.234 255.234.234.234 222.222.222.222/24 seq 40 ack, Next-hop reachable(via Te 8/1) Applied interfaces: Te 8/2 Hot-Lock PBR Ingress and egress Hot Lock PBR allows you to add or delete new rules into an existing policy (already written into content address memory [CAM]) without disruption to traffic flow. Existing entries in CAM are adjusted to accommodate the new entries.
ip redirect-list redirect-list-name redirect-list-name: 16 characters. To delete the redirect list, use the no ip redirect-list command. The following example creates a redirect list by the name of xyz. Dell(conf)#ip redirect-list ? WORD Redirect-list name (max 16 chars) Dell(conf)#ip redirect-list xyz Create a Rule for a Redirect-list To set the rules for the redirect list, use the following command. You can enter the command multiple times and create a sequence of redirect rules.
Example: Creating a Rule Dell(conf-redirect-list)#redirect ? A.B.C.D Forwarding router's address Dell(conf-redirect-list)#redirect 3.3.3.3 ? <0-255> An IP protocol number icmp Internet Control Message Protocol ip Any Internet Protocol tcp Transmission Control Protocol udp User Datagram Protocol Dell(conf-redirect-list)#redirect 3.3.3.3 ip ? A.B.C.D Source address any Any source host host A single source host Dell(conf-redirect-list)#redirect 3.3.3.3 ip 222.1.1.1 ? Mask A.B.C.
configure multiple recursive routes in a redirect list by entering multiple seq redirect commands with the same source and destination address and specify a different next-hop IP address. In this way, the recursive routes are used as different forwarding routes for dynamic failover. If the primary path goes down and the recursive route is removed from the routing table, the seq redirect command is ignored and the next command in the list with a different route is used.
shutdown Dell(conf-if-te-1/2)# In addition to supporting multiple redirect-lists in a redirect-group, multiple redirect-groups are supported on a single interface. Dell Networking OS has the capability to support multiple groups on an interface for backup purposes. Show Redirect List Configuration To view the configuration redirect list configuration, use the following commands. 1. View the redirect list configuration and the associated interfaces. EXEC mode show ip redirect-list redirect-list-name 2.

Policy-based Routing (PBR)
PIM Sparse-Mode (PIM-SM) 38 Protocol-independent multicast sparse-mode (PIM-SM) is a multicast protocol that forwards multicast traffic to a subnet only after a request using a PIM Join message; this behavior is the opposite of PIMDense mode, which forwards multicast traffic to all subnets until a request to stop. Implementation Information The following information is necessary for implementing PIM-SM.
3. If a host on the same subnet as another multicast receiver sends an IGMP report for the same multicast group, the gateway takes no action. If a router between the host and the RP receives a PIM Join message for which it already has a (*,G) entry, the interface on which the message was received is added to the outgoing interface list associated with the (*,G) entry, and the message is not (and does not need to be) forwarded towards the RP.
Configuring PIM-SM Configuring PIM-SM is a three-step process. 1. Enable multicast routing (refer to the following step). 2. Select a rendezvous point. 3. Enable PIM-SM on an interface. Enable multicast routing. CONFIGURATION mode ip multicast-routing Related Configuration Tasks The following are related PIM-SM configuration tasks.
To display PIM neighbors for each interface, use the show ip pim neighbor command EXEC Privilege mode.

• ip pim bsr-border Remove candidate RP advertisements.
PIM Source-Specific Mode (PIM-SSM) 39 PIM source-specific mode (PIM-SSM) is a multicast protocol that forwards multicast traffic from a single source to a subnet. In the other versions of protocol independent multicast (PIM), a receiver subscribes to a group only. The receiver receives traffic not just from the source in which it is interested but from all sources sending to that group.
Configure PIM-SSM Configuring PIM-SSM is a two-step process. 1. Configure PIM-SSM. 2. Enable PIM-SSM for a range of addresses. Related Configuration Tasks • Use PIM-SSM with IGMP Version 2 Hosts Enabling PIM-SSM To enable PIM-SSM, follow these steps. 1. Create an ACL that uses permit rules to specify what range of addresses should use SSM. CONFIGURATION mode ip access-list standard name 2. Enter the ip pim ssm-range command and specify the ACL you created.
• You may enter multiple ssm-map commands for different access lists. You may also enter multiple ssm-map commands for the same access list, as long as they use different source addresses. • When an extended ACL is associated with this command, Dell Networking OS displays an error message. If you apply an extended ACL before you create it, Dell Networking OS accepts the configuration, but when the ACL is later defined, Dell Networking OS ignores the ACL and the stated mapping has no effect.

40 Port Monitoring Port monitoring (also referred to as mirroring ) allows you to monitor ingress and/or egress traffic on specified ports. The mirrored traffic can be sent to a port to which a network analyzer is connected to inspect or troubleshoot the traffic. Mirroring is used for monitoring Ingress or Egress or both Ingress and Egress traffic on a specific port(s). This mirrored traffic can be sent to a port where a network sniffer can connect and monitor the traffic.
Port Monitoring Port monitoring is supported on both physical and logical interfaces, such as VLAN and port-channel interfaces. The source port (MD) with monitored traffic and the destination ports (MG) to which an analyzer can be attached must be on the same switch. You can configure up to 128 source ports in a monitoring session. Only one destination port is supported in a monitoring session. The S4048–ON supports multiple source-destination statements in a single monitor session.
Example of Viewing a Monitoring Session In the example below, 0/25 and 0/26 belong to Port-pipe 1. This port-pipe has the same restriction of only four destination ports, new or used.
show interface 2. Create a monitoring session using the command monitor session from CONFIGURATION mode, as shown in the following example. CONFIGURATION mode monitor session monitor session type rpm/erpm type is an optional keyword, required only for rpm and erpm 3. Specify the source and destination port and direction of traffic, as shown in the following example.

CONFIGURATION mode monitor multicast-queue queue-id Dell(conf)#monitor multicast-queue 7 2. Verify information about monitor configurations.
Enabling Flow-Based Monitoring Flow-based monitoring conserves bandwidth by monitoring only specified traffic instead of all traffic on the interface. This feature is particularly useful when looking for malicious traffic. It is available for Layer 2 and Layer 3 ingress and egress traffic. You can specify traffic using standard or extended access-lists. 1. Enable flow-based monitoring for a monitoring session. MONITOR SESSION mode flow-based enable 2.
Remote Port Mirroring While local port monitoring allows you to monitor traffic from one or more source ports by directing it to a destination port on the same switch/router, remote port mirroring allows you to monitor Layer 2 and Layer 3 ingress and/or egress traffic on multiple source ports on different switches and forward the mirrored traffic to multiple destination ports on different switches.
Figure 107. Remote Port Mirroring Configuring Remote Port Mirroring Remote port mirroring requires a source session (monitored ports on different source switches), a reserved tagged VLAN for transporting mirrored traffic (configured on source, intermediate, and destination switches), and a destination session (destination ports connected to analyzers on destination switches).
• The L3 interface configuration should be blocked for RPM VLAN. • The member port of the reserved VLAN should have MTU and IPMTU value as MAX+4 (to hold the VLAN tag parameter). • To associate with source session, the reserved VLAN can have at max of only 4 member ports. • To associate with destination session, the reserved VLAN can have multiple member ports.
• You cannot configure a source port channel or source VLAN in a source session if the port channel or VLAN has a member port that is configured as a destination port in a remote-port mirroring session. • A destination port for remote port mirroring cannot be used as a source port, including the session in which the port functions as the destination port. • A destination port cannot be used in any spanning tree instance. • The reserved VLAN used to transport mirrored traffic must be a L2 VLAN.

Encapsulated Remote Port Monitoring Encapsulated Remote Port Monitoring (ERPM) copies traffic from source ports/port-channels or source VLANs and forwards the traffic using routable GRE-encapsulated packets to the destination IP address specified in the session. Important: When configuring ERPM, follow these guidelines • The Dell Networking OS supports ERPM source session only. Encapsulated packets terminate at the destination IP address or at the analyzer.
The session number needs to be unique and not already defined. 3 source { interface | range } direction {rx | tx | both} Specify the source port or range of ports. Specify the ingress (rx), egress (tx), or both ingress and egress traffic to be monitored. You can enter mulitple source statements in an ERPM monitoring session 4 erpm source-ip dest-ip Specify the source IP address and the destination IP address to which encapsulated mirrored traffic is sent.
ERPM Behavior on a typical Dell Networking OS The Dell Networking OS is designed to support only the Encapsulation of the data received / transmitted at the specified source port (Port A). An ERPM destination session / decapsulation of the ERPM packets at the destination Switch are not supported. Figure 108.
– Start capture of ERPM packets on the Sniffer and save it to the trace file (for example : erpmwithheader.pcap). – The Header that gets attached to the packet is 38 bytes long. In case of a packet with L3 VLAN, it would be 42 bytes long. The original payload /original mirrored data starts from the 39th byte in a given ERPM packet. The first 38/42 bytes of the header needs to be ignored/ chopped off. – Some tools support options to edit the capture file.
Private VLANs (PVLAN) 41 The private VLAN (PVLAN) feature is supported on Dell Networking OS. For syntax details about the commands described in this chapter, refer to the Private VLANs commands chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide. Private VLANs extend the Dell Networking OS security suite by providing Layer 2 isolation between ports within the same virtual local area network (VLAN).
– A switch can have one or more primary VLANs, and it can have none. – A primary VLAN has one or more secondary VLANs. – A primary VLAN and each of its secondary VLANs decrement the available number of VLAN IDs in the switch. – A primary VLAN has one or more promiscuous ports. – A primary VLAN might have one or more trunk ports, or none. • Secondary VLAN — a subdomain of the primary VLAN. – There are two types of secondary VLAN — community VLAN and isolated VLAN.
• Map secondary VLANs to the selected primary VLAN. INTERFACE VLAN mode • [no] private-vlan mapping secondary-vlan vlan-list Display type and status of PVLAN interfaces.

INTERFACE VLAN mode private-vlan mapping secondary-vlan vlan-list The list of secondary VLANs can be: 5. • Specified in comma-delimited (VLAN-ID,VLAN-ID) or hyphenated-range format (VLAN-IDVLAN-ID). • Specified with this command even before they have been created. • Amended by specifying the new secondary VLAN to be added to the list. Add promiscuous ports as tagged or untagged interfaces.
4. Add one or more host ports to the VLAN. INTERFACE VLAN mode tagged interface or untagged interface You can enter the interfaces singly or in range format, either comma-delimited (slot/ port,port,port) or hyphenated (slot/ port-port). You can only add host (isolated) ports to the VLAN. Creating an Isolated VLAN An isolated VLAN is a secondary VLAN of a primary VLAN. An isolated VLAN port can only talk with the promiscuous ports in that primary VLAN. 1.

Sample Private VLAN Topology The following configuration is based on the example diagram for the Z9500: • Te 1/1 and Te 1/23 are configured as promiscuous ports, assigned to the primary VLAN, VLAN 4000. • Te 1/25 is configured as a PVLAN trunk port, also assigned to the primary VLAN 4000.
• The ports in isolated VLAN 4003 can only communicate with the promiscuous ports in the primary VLAN 4000. • All the ports in the secondary VLANs (both community and isolated VLANs) can only communicate with ports in the other secondary VLANs of that PVLAN over Layer 3, and only when the ip localproxy-arp command is invoked in the primary VLAN.

Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus (PVST+) 42 Per-VLAN spanning tree plus (PVST+) is a variation of spanning tree — developed by a third party — that allows you to configure a separate spanning tree instance for each virtual local area network (VLAN). Protocol Overview PVST+ is a variation of spanning tree — developed by a third party — that allows you to configure a separate spanning tree instance for each virtual local area network (VLAN).

Figure 111. Load Balancing with PVST+ The bridge with the bridge value for bridge priority is elected root. Because all bridges use the default priority (until configured otherwise), the lowest MAC address is used as a tie-breaker. To increase the likelihood that a bridge is selected as the STP root, assign bridges a low non-default value for bridge priority. To assign a bridge priority, use the following command. • Assign a bridge priority.
Root Bridge hello time 2, max age 20, forward delay 15 Bridge Identifier has priority 4096, Address 0001.e80d.b6d6 Configured hello time 2, max age 20, forward delay 15 We are the root of VLAN 100 Current root has priority 4096, Address 0001.e80d.b6d6 Number of topology changes 5, last change occurred 00:34:37 ago on Te 1/32 Port 375 (TenGigabitEthernet 1/22) is designated Forwarding Port path cost 20000, Port priority 128, Port Identifier 128.375 Designated root has priority 4096, address 0001.e80d.
vlan max-age The range is from 6 to 40. The default is 20 seconds. The values for global PVST+ parameters are given in the output of the show spanning-tree pvst command. Modifying Interface PVST+ Parameters You can adjust two interface parameters (port cost and port priority) to increase or decrease the probability that a port becomes a forwarding port. • Port cost — a value that is based on the interface type. The greater the port cost, the less likely the port is selected to be a forwarding port.
The default is 128. The values for interface PVST+ parameters are given in the output of the show spanning-tree pvst command, as previously shown. Configuring an EdgePort The EdgePort feature enables interfaces to begin forwarding traffic approximately 30 seconds sooner. In this mode an interface forwards frames by default until it receives a BPDU that indicates that it should behave otherwise; it does not go through the Learning and Listening states.
in the network not converging. To prevent Dell Networking OS from executing this action, use the no spanning-tree pvst err-disable cause invalid-pvst-bpdu command. After you configure this command, if the port receives a PVST+ BPDU, the BPDU is dropped and the port remains operational. Enabling PVST+ Extend System ID In the following example, ports P1 and P2 are untagged members of different VLANs. These ports are untagged because the hub is VLAN unaware.

Quality of Service (QoS) 43 This chapter describes how to use and configure Quality of Service service (QoS) features on the switch. Differentiated service is accomplished by classifying and queuing traffic, and assigning priorities to those queues. Table 69.

• Setting dot1p Priorities for Incoming Traffic • Honoring dot1p Priorities on Ingress Traffic • Configuring Port-Based Rate Policing • Configuring Port-Based Rate Shaping Setting dot1p Priorities for Incoming Traffic Dell Networking OS places traffic marked with a priority in a queue based on the following table. If you set a dot1p priority for a port-channel, all port-channel members are configured with the same value. You cannot assign a dot1p value to an individual interface in a port-channel.
Example of Configuring an Interface to Honor dot1p Priorities on Ingress Traffic Dell#configure terminal Dell(conf)#interface tengigabitethernet 1/1 Dell(conf-if-te-1/1)#service-class dynamic dot1p Dell(conf-if-te-1/1)#end Priority-Tagged Frames on the Default VLAN Priority-tagged frames are 802.1Q tagged frames with VLAN ID 0. For VLAN classification, these packets are treated as untagged. However, the dot1p value is still honored when you configure service-class dynamic dot1p or trust dot1p.
Configuring Port-Based Rate Shaping Rate shaping buffers, rather than drops, traffic exceeding the specified rate until the buffer is exhausted. If any stream exceeds the configured bandwidth on a continuous basis, it can consume all of the buffer space that is allocated to the port. Dell Networking OS Behavior: Rate shaping is effectively rate limiting because of its smaller buffer size.
Policy-Based QoS Configurations Policy-based QoS configurations consist of the components shown in the following example. Figure 114. Constructing Policy-Based QoS Configurations Classify Traffic Class maps differentiate traffic so that you can apply separate quality of service policies to different types of traffic. For both class maps, Layer 2 and Layer 3, Dell Networking OS matches packets against match criteria in the order that you configure them.
Creating a Layer 3 Class Map A Layer 3 class map differentiates ingress packets based on the DSCP value or IP precedence, and characteristics defined in an IP ACL. You can also use VLAN IDs and VRF IDs to classify the traffic using layer 3 class-maps. You may specify more than one DSCP and IP precedence value, but only one value must match to trigger a positive match for the class map. NOTE: IPv6 and IP-any class maps cannot match on ACLs or VLANs. Use step 1 or step 2 to start creating a Layer 3 class map.
The following example matches IPv6 traffic with a DSCP value of 40. Dell(conf)# class-map match-all test Dell(conf-class-map)# match ipv6 dscp 40 The following example matches IPv4 and IPv6 traffic with a precedence value of 3. Dell(conf)# class-map match-any test1 Dell(conf-class-map)#match ip-any precedence 3 Creating a Layer 2 Class Map All class maps are Layer 3 by default; however, you can create a Layer 2 class map by specifying the layer2 option with the class-map command.
numbers closer to 0) before rules with higher order numbers so that packets are matched as you intended. • Specify the order in which you want to apply ACL rules using the keyword order. order The order can range from 0 to 254. By default, all ACL rules have an order of 255. Displaying Configured Class Maps and Match Criteria To display all class-maps or a specific class map, use the following command.
----------------------------------------------------------------------20416 1 18 IP 0x0 0 0 23.64.0.5/32 0.0.0.0/0 20 2 20417 1 18 IP 0x0 0 0 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 0 20418 1 0 IP 0x0 0 0 23.64.0.2/32 0.0.0.0/0 10 1 20419 1 0 IP 0x0 0 0 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 0 20420 1 0 IP 0x0 0 0 23.64.0.3/32 0.0.0.0/0 12 1 20421 1 0 IP 0x0 0 0 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 0 20422 1 10 0 0x0 0 0 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 14 1 24511 1 0 0 0x0 0 0 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 0 In the previous example, the ClassAF1 does not classify traffic as intended.
qos-policy-input Create a Layer 2 input QoS policy by specifying the keyword layer2 after the qos-policy-input command. 2. After you create an input QoS policy, do one or more of the following: Configuring Policy-Based Rate Policing Setting a dot1p Value for Egress Packets Configuring Policy-Based Rate Policing To configure policy-based rate policing, use the following command. • Configure rate police ingress traffic.
Allocating Bandwidth to Queue The switch schedules packets for egress based on Deficit Round Robin (DRR). This strategy offers a guaranteed data rate. Allocate bandwidth to queues only in terms of percentage in 4-queue and 8-queue systems. The following table shows the default bandwidth percentage for each queue. The following table lists the default bandwidth weights for each queue, and their equivalent percentage which is derived by dividing the bandwidth weight by the sum of all queue weights. Table 71.
CONFIGURATION mode policy-map-input Create a Layer 2 input policy map by specifying the keyword layer2 with the policy-map-input command. 2. After you create an input policy map, do one or more of the following: Applying a Class-Map or Input QoS Policy to a Queue Applying an Input QoS Policy to an Input Policy Map Honoring DSCP Values on Ingress Packets Honoring dot1p Values on Ingress Packets 3. Apply the input policy map to an interface.

POLICY-MAP-IN mode trust diffserv Honoring dot1p Values on Ingress Packets Dell Networking OS honors dot1p values on ingress packets with the Trust dot1p feature.
Mapping dot1p Values to Service Queues All traffic is by default mapped to the same queue, Queue 0. If you honor dot1p on ingress, you can create service classes based the queueing strategy in Honoring dot1p Values on Ingress Packets. You may apply this queuing strategy globally by entering the following command from CONFIGURATION mode. • All dot1p traffic is mapped to Queue 0 unless you enable service-class dynamic dot1p on an interface or globally.
Applying an Output QoS Policy to a Queue Specifying an Aggregate QoS Policy Applying an Output Policy Map to an Interface 3. Apply the policy map to an interface. Applying an Output QoS Policy to a Queue To apply an output QoS policy to a queue, use the following command. • Apply an output QoS policy to queues. INTERFACE mode service-queue Specifying an Aggregate QoS Policy To specify an aggregate QoS policy, use the following command. • Specify an aggregate QoS policy.
traffic to the egress interface, which will either transmit or drop the packet based on configured queuing behavior. Traffic marked as red (high drop precedence) is dropped. Important Points to Remember • All DSCP values that are not specified as yellow or red are colored green (low drop precedence). • A DSCP value cannot be in both the yellow and red lists. Setting the red or yellow list with any DSCP value that is already in the other list results in an error and no update to that DSCP list is made.

QoS rate adjustment is disabled by default. • Specify the number of bytes of packet overhead to include in rate limiting, policing, and shaping calculations.
WRED profile to a policy-map so that specified traffic can be prevented from consuming too much of the BTM resources. WRED uses a profile to specify minimum and maximum threshold values. The minimum threshold is the allotted buffer space for specified traffic, for example, 1000KB on egress. If the 1000KB is consumed, packets are dropped randomly at an exponential rate until the maximum threshold is reached (as shown in the following illustration); this procedure is the “early detection” part of WRED.
wred-profile 2. Specify the minimum and maximum threshold values. WRED mode threshold Applying a WRED Profile to Traffic After you create a WRED profile, you must specify to which traffic Dell Networking OS should apply the profile. Dell Networking OS assigns a color (also called drop precedence) — red, yellow, or green — to each packet based on it DSCP value before queuing it. DSCP is a 6–bit field. Dell Networking uses the first three bits (LSB) of this field (DP) to determine the drop precedence.
Example of the show qos statistics wred-profile Command Dell#show qos statistics wred-profile Interface Te 1/1 Drop-statistic Dropped Pkts Green Yellow Out of Profile 51623 51300 0 Dell# Displaying egress-queue Statistics To display the number of transmitted and dropped packets on the egress queues of a WRED-configured interface, use the following command. • Display the number of packets and number of bytes on the egress-queue profile.
• • Estimated CAM — the estimated number of CAM entries that the policy will consume when it is applied to an interface. Status — indicates whether the specified policy-map can be completely applied to an interface in the port-pipe. – Allowed — indicates that the policy-map can be applied because the estimated number of CAM entries is less or equal to the available number of CAM entries. The number of interfaces in the port-pipe to which the policy-map can be applied is given in parentheses.
use the wred weight number command to configure the weight for the WRED average queue size. The mark probability value is the number of packets dropped when the average queue size reaches the maximum threshold value. The weight factor is set to zero by default, which causes the same behavior as dropping of packets by WRED during network loads or also called instantaneous ECN marking.

Sample configuration to mark non-ecn packets as “yellow” with Multiple traffic class Consider the example where there are no different traffic classes that is all the packets are egressing on the default ‘queue0’. Dell Networking OS can be configured as below to mark the non-ecn packets as yellow packets.
Until Release 9.3(0.0), support is available for classifying traffic based on the 6-bit DSCP field of the IPv4 packet. As a part of this feature, the 2-bit ECN field of the IPv4 packet will also be available to be configured as one of the match qualifier. This way the entire 8-bit ToS field of the IPv4 header shall be used to classify traffic. The Dell Networking OS Release 9.3(0.0) supports the following QOS actions in the ingress policy based QOS: 1. Rate Policing 2. Queuing 3.
• Classification based on ECN and DSCP concurrently You can now use the set-color yellow keyword with the match ip access-group command to mark the color of the traffic as ‘yellow’ would be added in the ‘match ip’ sequence of the class-map configuration. By default, all packets are considered as ‘green’ (without the rate-policer and trust-diffserve configuration) and hence support would be provided to mark the packets as ‘yellow’ alone will be provided.

Routing Information Protocol (RIP) 44 The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) tracks distances or hop counts to nearby routers when establishing network connections and is based on a distance-vector algorithm. RIP is based on a distance-vector algorithm; it tracks distances or hop counts to nearby routers when establishing network connections. RIP protocol standards are listed in the Standards Compliance chapter. Protocol Overview RIP is the oldest interior gateway protocol.
Implementation Information Dell Networking OS supports both versions of RIP and allows you to configure one version globally and the other version on interfaces or both versions on the interfaces. The following table lists the defaults for RIP in Dell Networking OS. Table 77.
Enabling RIP Globally By default, RIP is not enabled in Dell Networking OS. To enable RIP globally, use the following commands. 1. Enter ROUTER RIP mode and enable the RIP process on Dell Networking OS. CONFIGURATION mode router rip 2. Assign an IP network address as a RIP network to exchange routing information.
192.162.2.0/24 [120/1] via 29.10.10.12, 00:01:21, Fa 1/49 192.162.2.0/24 auto-summary 192.161.1.0/24 [120/1] via 29.10.10.12, 00:00:27, Fa 1/49 192.161.1.0/24 auto-summary 192.162.3.0/24 [120/1] via 29.10.10.12, 00:01:22, Fa 1/49 192.162.3.0/24 auto-summary To disable RIP globally, use the no router rip command in CONFIGURATION mode. Configure RIP on Interfaces When you enable RIP globally on the system, interfaces meeting certain conditions start receiving RIP routes.
• Assign a configured prefix list to all outgoing RIP routes. ROUTER RIP mode distribute-list prefix-list-name out To view the current RIP configuration, use the show running-config command in EXEC mode or the show config command in ROUTER RIP mode. Adding RIP Routes from Other Instances In addition to filtering routes, you can add routes from other routing instances or protocols to the RIP process.
You can set one RIP version globally on the system using system. This command sets the RIP version for RIP traffic on the interfaces participating in RIP unless the interface was specifically configured for a specific RIP version. • Set the RIP version sent and received on the system. ROUTER RIP mode • version {1 | 2} Set the RIP versions received on that interface. INTERFACE mode • ip rip receive version [1] [2] Set the RIP versions sent out on that interface.
The following example of the show ip protocols command confirms that both versions are sent out that interface. This interface no longer sends and receives the same RIP versions as Dell Networking OS does globally (shown in bold).
The autosummary command requires no other configuration commands. To disable automatic route summarization, enter no autosummary in ROUTER RIP mode. NOTE: If you enable the ip split-horizon command on an interface, the system does not advertise the summarized address. Controlling Route Metrics As a distance-vector protocol, RIP uses hop counts to determine the best route, but sometimes the shortest hop count is a route over the lowest-speed link.
Enable debugging of RIP. Example of the debug ip rip Command The following example shows the confirmation when you enable the debug function. Dell#debug ip rip RIP protocol debug is ON Dell# To disable RIP, use the no debug ip rip command. RIP Configuration Example The examples in this section show the command sequence to configure RIPv2 on the two routers shown in the following illustration — Core 2 and Core 3. The host prompts used in the following example reflect those names.
Core 2 RIP Output The examples in the section show the core 2 RIP output. Examples of the show ip Commands to View Core 2 Information • To display Core 2 RIP database, use the show ip rip database command. • To display Core 2 RIP setup, use the show ip route command. • To display Core 2 RIP activity, use the show ip protocols command. The following example shows the show ip rip database command to view the learned RIP routes on Core 2.

45 Remote Monitoring (RMON) RMON is an industry-standard implementation that monitors network traffic by sharing network monitoring information. RMON provides both 32-bit and 64-bit monitoring facility and long-term statistics collection on Dell Networking Ethernet interfaces. RMON operates with the simple network management protocol (SNMP) and monitors all nodes on a local area network (LAN) segment. RMON monitors traffic passing through the router and segment traffic not destined for the router.
• • long as the master RPM had been running long enough to sample all the data. NMS backs up all the long-term data collection and displays the failover downtime from the performance graph. Chassis Down — When a chassis goes down, all sampled data is lost. But the RMON configurations are saved in the configuration file. The sampling process continues after the chassis returns to operation. Platform Adaptation — RMON supports all Dell Networking chassis and all Dell Networking Ethernet interfaces.
The following example configures RMON alarm number 10. The alarm monitors the MIB variable 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.20.1 (ifEntry.ifOutErrors) once every 20 seconds until the alarm is disabled, and checks the rise or fall of the variable. The alarm is triggered when the 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.20.1 value shows a MIB counter increase of 15 or more (such as from 100000 to 100015). The alarm then triggers event number 1, which is configured with the RMON event command. Possible events include a log entry or an SNMP trap.
– controlEntry: specifies the RMON group of statistics using a value. – integer: a value from 1 to 65,535 that identifies the RMON Statistics Table. The value must be unique in the RMON Statistic Table. – owner: (Optional) specifies the name of the owner of the RMON group of statistics. – ownername: (Optional) records the name of the owner of the RMON group of statistics. The default is a null-terminated string.
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) 46 The Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) is a Layer 2 protocol — specified by IEEE 802.1w — that is essentially the same as spanning-tree protocol (STP) but provides faster convergence and interoperability with switches configured with STP and multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP). Protocol Overview RSTP is a Layer 2 protocol — specified by IEEE 802.
Important Points to Remember • RSTP is disabled by default. • Dell Networking OS supports only one Rapid Spanning Tree (RST) instance. • All interfaces in virtual local area networks (VLANs) and all enabled interfaces in Layer 2 mode are automatically added to the RST topology. • Adding a group of ports to a range of VLANs sends multiple messages to the rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP) task, avoid using the range command.
INTERFACE mode no shutdown Example of Verifying an Interface is in Layer 2 Mode and Enabled To verify that an interface is in Layer 2 mode and enabled, use the show config command from INTERFACE mode. The bold lines indicate that the interface is in Layer 2 mode. Enabling Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol Globally Enable RSTP globally on all participating bridges; it is not enabled by default.
Figure 117. Rapid Spanning Tree Enabled Globally To view the interfaces participating in RSTP, use the show spanning-tree rstp command from EXEC privilege mode. If a physical interface is part of a port channel, only the port channel is listed in the command output. Dell#show spanning-tree rstp Root Identifier has priority 32768, Address 0001.e801.cbb4 Root Bridge hello time 2, max age 20, forward delay 15, max hops 0 Bridge Identifier has priority 32768, Address 0001.e801.
The port is not in the Edge port mode Port 379 (TenGigabitEthernet 2/3) is designated Forwarding Port path cost 20000, Port priority 128, Port Identifier 128.379 Designated root has priority 32768, address 0001.e801.cbb4 Designated bridge has priority 32768, address 0001.e801.cbb4 Designated port id is 128.
Modifying Global Parameters You can modify RSTP parameters. The root bridge sets the values for forward-delay, hello-time, and max-age and overwrites the values set on other bridges participating in the Rapid Spanning Tree group. • Forward-delay — the amount of time an interface waits in the Listening state and the Learning state before it transitions to the Forwarding state. • Hello-time — the time interval in which the bridge sends RSTP BPDUs.
NOTE: With large configurations (especially those configurations with more ports) Dell Networking recommends increasing the hello-time. The range is from 1 to 10. • The default is 2 seconds. Change the max-age parameter. PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE RSTP mode max-age seconds The range is from 6 to 40. The default is 20 seconds. To view the current values for global parameters, use the show spanning-tree rstp command from EXEC privilege mode.
To view the current values for interface parameters, use the show spanning-tree rstp command from EXEC privilege mode. Enabling SNMP Traps for Root Elections and Topology Changes To enable SNMP traps collectively, use this command. Enable SNMP traps for RSTP, MSTP, and PVST+ collectively. snmp-server enable traps xstp Influencing RSTP Root Selection RSTP determines the root bridge, but you can assign one bridge a lower priority to increase the likelihood that it is selected as the root bridge.
• When you add a physical port to a port channel already in the Error Disable state, the new member port is also disabled in the hardware. • When you remove a physical port from a port channel in the Error Disable state, the error disabled state is cleared on this physical port (the physical port is enabled in the hardware). • The reset linecard command does not clear the Error Disabled state of the port or the hardware disabled state. The interface continues to be disables in the hardware.
The range is from 50 to 950 milliseconds. Example of Verifying Hello-Time Interval Dell(conf-rstp)#do show spanning-tree rstp brief Executing IEEE compatible Spanning Tree Protocol Root ID Priority 0, Address 0001.e811.2233 Root Bridge hello time 50 ms, max age 20, forward delay 15 Bridge ID Priority 0, Address 0001.e811.2233 We are the root Configured hello time 50 ms, max age 20, forward delay 15 NOTE: The hello time is encoded in BPDUs in increments of 1/256ths of a second.

Security 48 This chapter describes several ways to provide security to the Dell Networking system. For details about all the commands described in this chapter, refer to the Security chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Guide. AAA Accounting Accounting, authentication, and authorization (AAA) accounting is part of the AAA security model. For details about commands related to AAA security, refer to the Security chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Guide.
– exec: sends accounting information when a user has logged in to EXEC mode. – command level: sends accounting of commands executed at the specified privilege level. – suppress: Do not generate accounting records for a specific type of user. – default | name: enter the name of a list of accounting methods. – start-stop: use for more accounting information, to send a start-accounting notice at the beginning of the requested event and a stop-accounting notice at the end.
accounting exec execAcct Example of Enabling AAA Accounting with a Named Method List Dell(config-line-vty)# accounting commands 15 com15 Dell(config-line-vty)# accounting exec execAcct Monitoring AAA Accounting Dell Networking OS does not support periodic interim accounting because the periodic command can cause heavy congestion when many users are logged in to the network. No specific show command exists for TACACS+ accounting.
Configuration Task List for AAA Authentication The following sections provide the configuration tasks. • • • • Configuring AAA Authentication Login Methods Enabling AAA Authentication Enabling AAA Authentication - RADIUS For a complete list of all commands related to login authentication, refer to the Security chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Guide. Configure Login Authentication for Terminal Lines You can assign up to five authentication methods to a method list.
To view the configuration, use the show config command in LINE mode or the show runningconfig in EXEC Privilege mode. NOTE: Dell Networking recommends using the none method only as a backup. This method does not authenticate users. The none and enable methods do not work with secure shell (SSH). You can create multiple method lists and assign them to different terminal lines. Enabling AAA Authentication To enable AAA authentication, use the following command. • Enable AAA authentication.
To use local authentication for enable secret on the console, while using remote authentication on VTY lines, issue the following commands. The following example shows enabling local authentication for console and remote authentication for the VTY lines.
AAA Authorization Dell Networking OS enables AAA new-model by default. You can set authorization to be either local or remote. Different combinations of authentication and authorization yield different results. By default, Dell Networking OS sets both to local. Privilege Levels Overview Limiting access to the system is one method of protecting the system and your network. However, at times, you might need to allow others access to the router and you can limit that access to a subset of commands.
For a complete listing of all commands related to Dell Networking OS privilege levels and passwords, refer to the Security chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Guide. Configuring a Username and Password In Dell Networking OS, you can assign a specific username to limit user access to the system. To configure a username and password, use the following command. • Assign a user name and password.
Configuring Custom Privilege Levels In addition to assigning privilege levels to the user, you can configure the privilege levels of commands so that they are visible in different privilege levels. Within Dell Networking OS, commands have certain privilege levels. With the privilege command, you can change the default level or you can reset their privilege level back to the default. • Assign the launch keyword (for example, configure) for the keyword’s command mode.
• • command: an Dell Networking OS CLI keyword (up to five keywords allowed). reset: return the command to its default privilege mode. Examples of Privilege Level Commands To view the configuration, use the show running-config command in EXEC Privilege mode. The following example shows a configuration to allow a user john to view only EXEC mode commands and all snmp-server commands.
end exit no snmp-server Dell(conf)# Exit from Configuration mode Exit from Configuration mode Reset a command Modify SNMP parameters Specifying LINE Mode Password and Privilege You can specify a password authentication of all users on different terminal lines. The user’s privilege level is the same as the privilege level assigned to the terminal line, unless a more specific privilege level is assigned to the user. To specify a password for the terminal line, use the following commands.
the RADIUS server and requests authentication of the user and password. The RADIUS server returns one of the following responses: • Access-Accept — the RADIUS server authenticates the user. • Access-Reject — the RADIUS server does not authenticate the user. If an error occurs in the transmission or reception of RADIUS packets, you can view the error by enabling the debug radius command. Transactions between the RADIUS server and the client are encrypted (the users’ passwords are not sent in plain text).
• • If an ACL is absent. If there is a very long delay for an entry, or a denied entry because of an ACL, and a message is logged. NOTE: The ACL name must be a string. Only standard ACLs in authorization (both RADIUS and TACACS) are supported. Authorization is denied in cases using Extended ACLs. Auto-Command You can configure the system through the RADIUS server to automatically execute a command when you connect to a specific line.
• Enter a text string (up to 16 characters long) as the name of the method list you wish to use with the RADIUS authentication method. CONFIGURATION mode • aaa authentication login method-list-name radius Create a method list with RADIUS and TACACS+ as authorization methods. CONFIGURATION mode aaa authorization exec {method-list-name | default} radius tacacs+ Typical order of methods: RADIUS, TACACS+, Local, None.
– key [encryption-type] key: enter 0 for plain text or 7 for encrypted text, and a string for the key. The key can be up to 42 characters long. This key must match the key configured on the RADIUS server host. If you do not configure these optional parameters, the global default values for all RADIUS host are applied. To specify multiple RADIUS server hosts, configure the radius-server host command multiple times.
– seconds: the range is from 0 to 1000. Default is 5 seconds. To view the configuration of RADIUS communication parameters, use the show running-config command in EXEC Privilege mode. Monitoring RADIUS To view information on RADIUS transactions, use the following command. • View RADIUS transactions to troubleshoot problems. EXEC Privilege mode debug radius TACACS+ Dell Networking OS supports terminal access controller access control system (TACACS+ client, including support for login authentication.
3. Enter LINE mode. CONFIGURATION mode line {aux 0 | console 0 | vty number [end-number]} 4. Assign the method-list to the terminal line. LINE mode login authentication {method-list-name | default} Example of a Failed Authentication To view the configuration, use the show config in LINE mode or the show running-config tacacs + command in EXEC Privilege mode. If authentication fails using the primary method, Dell Networking OS employs the second method (or third method, if necessary) automatically.
debug tacacs+ TACACS+ Remote Authentication The system takes the access class from the TACACS+ server. Access class is the class of service that restricts Telnet access and packet sizes. If you have configured remote authorization, the system ignores the access class you have configured for the VTY line and gets this access class information from the TACACS+ server. The system must know the username and password of the incoming user before it can fetch the access class from the server.
To view the TACACS+ configuration, use the show running-config tacacs+ command in EXEC Privilege mode. To delete a TACACS+ server host, use the no tacacs-server host {hostname | ip-address} command. freebsd2# telnet 2200:2200:2200:2200:2200::2202 Trying 2200:2200:2200:2200:2200::2202... Connected to 2200:2200:2200:2200:2200::2202. Escape character is '^]'.
EXEC Privilege mode ssh {hostname} [-l username | -p port-number | -v {1 | 2}| -c encryption cipher | -m HMAC algorithm • • hostname is the IP address or host name of the remote device. Enter an IPv4 or IPv6 address in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D). SSH V2 is enabled by default on all the modes. Display SSH connection information.
EXEC Privilege Mode 5. On the chassis, invoke SCP. CONFIGURATION mode copy scp: flash: Example of Using SCP to Copy from an SSH Server on Another Switch The following example shows the use of SCP and SSH to copy a software image from one switch running SSH server on UDP port 99 to the local switch. Other SSH related command include: • crypto key generate : generate keys for the SSH server. • debug ip ssh : enables collecting SSH debug information.
Configuring When to Re-generate an SSH Key You can configure the time-based or volume-based rekey threshold for an SSH session. If both threshold types are configured, the session rekeys when either one of the thresholds is reached. To configure the time or volume rekey threshold at which to re-generate the SSH key during an SSH session, use the ip ssh rekey [time rekey-interval] [volume rekey-limit] command. CONFIGURATION mode.
The following example shows you how to configure a key exchange algorithm. Dell(conf)# ip ssh server hellman-group14-sha1 kex diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1 diffie- Configuring the HMAC Algorithm for the SSH Server To configure the HMAC algorithm for the SSH server, use the ip ssh server mac hmac-algorithm command in CONFIGURATION mode. hmac-algorithm: Enter a space-delimited list of keyed-hash message authentication code (HMAC) algorithms supported by the SSH server.
• aes192-cbc • aes256-cbc • aes128-ctr • aes192-ctr • aes256-ctr The default cipher list is 3des-cbc,aes128-cbc,aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc,aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr Example of Configuring a Cipher List The following example shows you how to configure a cipher list. Dell(conf)#ip ssh server cipher 3des-cbc aes128-cbc aes128-ctr Secure Shell Authentication Secure Shell (SSH) is enabled by default using the SSH Password Authentication method.
3. Disable password authentication if enabled. CONFIGURATION mode no ip ssh password-authentication enable 4. Enable RSA authentication in SSH. CONFIGURATION Mode ip ssh rsa-authentication enable 5. Install User’s public key for RSA authentication in SSH. CONFIGURATION Mode ip ssh rsa-authentication my-authorized-keys flash://public_key Example of Generating RSA Keys admin@Unix_client#ssh-keygen -t rsa Generating public/private rsa key pair. Enter file in which to save the key (/home/admin/.
Examples of Creating shosts and rhosts The following example shows creating shosts. admin@Unix_client# cd /etc/ssh admin@Unix_client# ls moduli sshd_config ssh_host_dsa_key.pub ssh_host_key.pub ssh_host_rsa_key.pub ssh_config ssh_host_dsa_key ssh_host_key ssh_host_rsa_key admin@Unix_client# cat ssh_host_rsa_key.
In this case, verify that host-based authentication is set to “Yes” in the file ssh_config (root permission is required to edit this file): permission denied (host based). If the IP address in the RSA key does not match the IP address from which you attempt to log in, the following message appears. In this case, verify that the name and IP address of the client is contained in the file /etc/hosts: RSA Authentication Error. Telnet To use Telnet with SSH, first enable SSH, as previously described.
1. Create a username. 2. Enter a password. 3. Assign an access class. 4. Enter a privilege level. You can assign line authentication on a per-VTY basis; it is a simple password authentication, using an access-class as authorization. Configure local authentication globally and configure access classes on a per-user basis. Dell Networking OS can assign different access classes to different users by username.
Dell(config-line-vty)#login authentication tacacsmethod Dell(config-line-vty)# Dell(config-line-vty)#access-class deny10 Dell(config-line-vty)#end (same applies for radius and line authentication) VTY MAC-SA Filter Support Dell Networking OS supports MAC access lists which permit or deny users based on their source MAC address. With this approach, you can implement a security policy based on the source MAC address. To apply a MAC ACL on a VTY line, use the same access-class command as IP ACLs.
• Displaying User Roles • Displaying Accounting for User Roles • Displaying Information About Roles Logged into the Switch • Display Role Permissions Assigned to a Command Overview of RBAC With Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), access and authorization is controlled based on a user’s role. Users are granted permissions based on their user roles, not on their individual user ID.
Before you enable role-based only AAA authorization: 1. Locally define a system administrator user role. This will give you access to login with full permissions even if network connectivity to remote authentication servers is not available. 2. Configure login authentication on the console. This ensures that all users are properly identified through authentication no matter the access point.
System-Defined RBAC User Roles By default, the Dell Networking OS provides 4 system defined user roles. You can create up to 8 additional user roles. NOTE: You cannot delete any system defined roles. The system defined user roles are as follows: • Network Operator (netoperator) - This user role has no privilege to modify any configuration on the switch. You can access Exec mode (monitoring) to view the current configuration and status information.
then restrict commands or add commands to that role. For more information about this topic, see Modifying Command Permissions for Roles. NOTE: You can change user role permissions on system pre-defined user roles or user-defined user roles. Important Points to Remember Consider the following when creating a user role: • Only the system administrator and user-defined roles inherited from the system administrator can create roles and user names.
myrole secadmin Exec Config Line Modifying Command Permissions for Roles You can modify (add or delete) command permissions for newly created user roles and system defined roles using the role mode { { { addrole | deleterole } role-name } | reset } command command in Configuration mode. NOTE: You cannot modify system administrator command permissions. If you add or delete command permissions using the role command, those changes only apply to the specific user role.
Example: Allow Security Administrator to Access Only 10-Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces The following example allows the security administrator (secadmin) to only access 10-Gigabit Ethernett interfaces and then shows that the secadmin, highlighted in bold, can now access Interface mode. However, the secadmin can only access 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
The following example resets only the secadmin role to its original setting. Dell(conf)#no role configure addrole secadmin protocol Example: Reset System-Defined Roles and Roles that Inherit Permissions In the following example the command protocol permissions are reset to their original setting or one or more of the system-defined roles and any roles that inherited permissions from them.
NOTE: Authentication services only validate the user ID and password combination. To determine which commands are permitted for users, configure authorization. For information about how to configure authorization for roles, see Configure AAA Authorization for Roles. To configure AAA authentication, use the aaa authentication command in CONFIGURATION mode.

The format to create a Dell Network OS AV pair for privilege level is shell:priv-lvl= where number is a value between 0 and 15. Force10-avpair= ”shell:priv-lvl=15“ Example for Creating a AVP Pair for System Defined or User-Defined Role The following section shows you how to create an AV pair to allow a user to login from a network access server to have access to commands based on the user’s role.
The following example applies the accounting default method to the user role secadmin (security administrator). Dell(conf-vty-0)# accounting commands role secadmin default Displaying Active Accounting Sessions for Roles To display active accounting sessions for each user role, use the show accounting command in EXEC mode.
Displaying Role Permissions Assigned to a Command To display permissions assigned to a command, use the show role command in EXEC Privilege mode. The output displays the user role and or permission level.
Service Provider Bridging 49 Service provider bridging provides the ability to add a second VLAN ID tag in an Ethernet frame and is referred to as VLAN stacking in the Dell Networking OS. VLAN Stacking VLAN stacking, also called Q-in-Q, is defined in IEEE 802.1ad — Provider Bridges, which is an amendment to IEEE 802.1Q — Virtual Bridged Local Area Networks. It enables service providers to use 802.
Figure 118. VLAN Stacking in a Service Provider Network Important Points to Remember • Interfaces that are members of the Default VLAN and are configured as VLAN-Stack access or trunk ports do not switch untagged traffic. To switch traffic, add these interfaces to a non-default VLANStack-enabled VLAN. • Dell Networking cautions against using the same MAC address on different customer VLANs, on the same VLAN-Stack VLAN.
Configure VLAN Stacking Configuring VLAN-Stacking is a three-step process. 1. Creating Access and Trunk Ports 2. Assign access and trunk ports to a VLAN (Creating Access and Trunk Ports). 3. Enabling VLAN-Stacking for a VLAN.
no ip address switchport vlan-stack trunk no shutdown Enable VLAN-Stacking for a VLAN To enable VLAN-Stacking for a VLAN, use the following command. • Enable VLAN-Stacking for the VLAN. INTERFACE VLAN mode vlan-stack compatible Example of Viewing VLAN Stack Member Status To display the status and members of a VLAN, use the show vlan command from EXEC Privilege mode. Members of a VLAN-Stacking-enabled VLAN are marked with an M in column Q.

• Make packets eligible for dropping based on their DEI value. CONFIGURATION mode dei enable By default, packets are colored green, and DEI is marked 0 on egress. Honoring the Incoming DEI Value To honor the incoming DEI value, you must explicitly map the DEI bit to an Dell Networking OS drop precedence. Precedence can have one of three colors. Precedence Description Green High-priority packets that are the least preferred to be dropped. Yellow Lower-priority packets that are treated as best-effort.
Example of Viewing DEI-Marking Configuration To display the DEI-marking configuration, use the show interface dei-mark [interface slot/ port[/subport] | linecard number port-set number] in EXEC Privilege mode.
the queue is determined by QoS configuration. For example, the following access-port configuration maps all traffic to Queue 0: vlan-stack dot1p-mapping c-tag-dot1p 0-7 sp-tag-dot1p 1 However, if the following QoS configuration also exists on the interface, traffic is queued to Queue 0 but is policed at 40Mbps (qos-policy-input for queue 3) because class-map "a" of Queue 3 also matches the traffic. This is an expected behavior.
• vman-qos: mark the S-Tag dot1p and queue the frame according to the original C-Tag dot1p. This method requires half as many CAM entries as vman-qos-dual-fp. • vman-qos-dual-fp: mark the S-Tag dot1p and queue the frame according to the S-Tag dot1p. This method requires twice as many CAM entries as vman-qos and FP blocks in multiples of 2. The default is: 0 FP blocks for vman-qos and vman-qos-dual-fp. 2. The new CAM configuration is stored in NVRAM and takes effect only after a save and reload.
Figure 123. VLAN Stacking without L2PT You might need to transport control traffic transparently through the intermediate network to the other region. Layer 2 protocol tunneling enables BPDUs to traverse the intermediate network by identifying frames with the Bridge Group Address, rewriting the destination MAC to a user-configured non-reserved address, and forwarding the frames.
the intermediate network because only Dell Networking OS could recognize the significance of the destination MAC address and rewrite it to the original Bridge Group Address. In Dell Networking OS version 8.2.1.0 and later, the L2PT MAC address is user-configurable, so you can specify an address that non-Dell Networking systems can recognize and rewrite the address at egress edge. Figure 124. VLAN Stacking with L2PT Implementation Information • L2PT is available for STP, RSTP, MSTP, and PVST+ BPDUs.
Enabling Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling To enable Layer 2 protocol tunneling, use the following command. 1. Verify that the system is running the default CAM profile. Use this CAM profile for L2PT. EXEC Privilege mode show cam-profile 2. Enable protocol tunneling globally on the system. CONFIGURATION mode protocol-tunnel enable 3. Tunnel BPDUs the VLAN.
4. Set a maximum rate at which the RPM processes BPDUs for L2PT. VLAN STACKING mode protocol-tunnel rate-limit The default is: no rate limiting. The range is from 64 to 320 kbps. Debugging Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling To debug Layer 2 protocol tunneling, use the following command. • Display debugging information for L2PT. EXEC Privilege mode debug protocol-tunnel Provider Backbone Bridging IEEE 802.1ad—Provider Bridges amends 802.
sFlow 50 sFlow is a standard-based sampling technology embedded within switches and routers which is used to monitor network traffic. It is designed to provide traffic monitoring for high-speed networks with many switches and routers. Overview The Dell Networking Operating System (OS) supports sFlow version 5. sFlow is a standard-based sampling technology embedded within switches and routers which is used to monitor network traffic.
• If the interface states are shut down, the sampling rate is set using the global sampling rate. • If the global sampling rate is non-default, for example 256, and if the sampling rate is not configured on the interface, the sampling rate of the interface is the global non-default sampling rate, that is, 256. To avoid the back-off, either increase the global sampling rate or configure all the line card ports with the desired sampling rate even if some ports have no sFlow configured.
Examples of Verifying Extended sFlow The bold line shows that extended sFlow settings are enabled on all three types. Dell#show sflow sFlow services are enabled Egress Management Interface sFlow services are disabled Global default sampling rate: 32768 Global default counter polling interval: 20 Global default extended maximum header size: 128 bytes Global extended information enabled: none 1 collectors configured Collector IP addr: 100.1.1.1, Agent IP addr: 1.1.1.
By default, the maximum header size of a packet is 128 bytes. When sflow max-header-size extended is enabled, 256 bytes are copied. These bytes are useful for VxLAN, NvGRE, IPv4, and IPv6 tunneled packets. NOTE: Interface mode configuration takes priority. • To reset the maximum header size of a packet, use the following command • [no] sflow max-header-size extended View the maximum header size of a packet.
sFlow Show Commands Dell Networking OS includes the following sFlow display commands. • Displaying Show sFlow Globally • Displaying Show sFlow on an Interface • Displaying Show sFlow on a Line Card Displaying Show sFlow Global To view sFlow statistics, use the following command. • Display sFlow configuration information and statistics. EXEC mode show sflow Example of Viewing sFlow Configuration (Global) The first bold line indicates sFlow is globally enabled.

51 Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is designed to manage devices on IP networks by monitoring device operation, which might require administrator intervention. NOTE: On Dell Networking routers, standard and private SNMP management information bases (MIBs) are supported, including all Get and a limited number of Set operations (such as set vlan and copy cmd).
The SNMPv3 feature also uses a FIPS-validated cryptographic module for all of its cryptographic operations when the system is configured with the fips mode enable command in Global Configuration mode. When the FIPS mode is enabled on the system, SNMPv3 operates in a FIPScompliant manner, and only the FIPS-approved algorithm options are available for SNMPv3 user configuration. When the FIPS mode is disabled on the system, all options are available for SNMPv3 user configuration.
only when users are not previously configured. This log message is provided to assist your system security auditing procedures. Configuration Task List for SNMP Configuring SNMP version 1 or version 2 requires a single step. NOTE: The configurations in this chapter use a UNIX environment with net-snmp version 5.4. This environment is only one of many RFC-compliant SNMP utilities you can use to manage your Dell Networking system using SNMP. Also, these configurations use SNMP version 2c.
Creating a Community For SNMPv1 and SNMPv2, create a community to enable the community-based security in Dell Networking OS. The management station generates requests to either retrieve or alter the value of a management object and is called the SNMP manager. A network element that processes SNMP requests is called an SNMP agent. An SNMP community is a group of SNMP agents and managers that are allowed to interact.

Configuring Contact and Location Information using SNMP You may configure system contact and location information from the Dell Networking system or from the management station using SNMP. To configure system contact and location information from the Dell Networking system and from the management station using SNMP, use the following commands. • (From a Dell Networking system) Identify the system manager along with this person’s contact information (for example, an email address or phone number).
Subscribing to Managed Object Value Updates using SNMP By default, the Dell Networking system displays some unsolicited SNMP messages (traps) upon certain events and conditions. You can also configure the system to send the traps to a management station. Traps cannot be saved on the system. Dell Networking OS supports the following three sets of traps: • • • RFC 1157-defined traps — coldStart, warmStart, linkDown, linkUp, authenticationFailure, and egpNeighbborLoss.

PORT_LINKDN:changed interface state to down:%d PORT_LINKUP:changed interface state to up:%d Enabling a Subset of SNMP Traps You can enable a subset of Dell Networking enterprise-specific SNMP traps using one of the following listed command options. To enable a subset of Dell Networking enterprise-specific SNMP traps, use the following command. • Enable a subset of SNMP traps.

Enabling an SNMP Agent to Notify Syslog Server Failure You can configure a network device to send an SNMP trap if an audit processing failure occurs due to loss of connectivity with the syslog server. If a connectivity failure occurs on a syslog server that is configured for reliable transmission, an SNMP trap is sent and a message is displayed on the console.
Following is the sample audit log message that other syslog servers that are reachable receive: Oct 21 05:26:04: dv-fedgov-s4810-6: %EVL-6-REACHABLE:Syslog server 10.11.226.121 (port: 9140) is reachable Copy Configuration Files Using SNMP To do the following, use SNMP from a remote client.

In the following example, R1 has one dynamic MAC address, learned off of port TenGigabitEthernet 1/21, which a member of the default VLAN, VLAN 1. The SNMP walk returns the values for dot1dTpFdbAddress, dot1dTpFdbPort, and dot1dTpFdbStatus. Each object comprises an OID concatenated with an instance number. In the case of these objects, the instance number is the decimal equivalent of the MAC address; derive the instance number by converting each hex pair to its decimal equivalent.

Stacking 52 Using the Dell Networking OS stacking feature, you can interconnect multiple switch units with stacking ports or front end user ports. (The S4048-ON uses front end user ports for stacking.) The stack becomes manageable as a single switch through the stack management unit. The system accepts Unit ID numbers from 1 to 6 and the it supports stacking up to six units. Stacking Overview Dell Networking OS elects a management (master) unit, a standby unit, and all other units are member units.
Stack Master Election The stack elects a master and standby unit at bootup time based on two criteria. • Unit priority — User-configurable. The range is from 1 to 14. A higher value (14) means a higher priority. The default is 1. By removing the stack-unit priority using the no stack-unit priority command, you can set the priority back to the default value of zero.
retained during the failover, as is the stack MAC address. The lack of a standby unit triggers an election within the remaining units for a standby role. After the former master switch recovers, despite having a higher priority or MAC address, it does not recover its master role but instead takes the next available role. To view failover details, use the show redundancy command. MAC Addressing on Stacks The stack has three MAC addresses: the chassis MAC, interface MAC, and null interface MAC.

Figure 125. Supported Stacking Topologies High Availability on Stacks Stacks have master and standby management units analogous to Dell Networking route processor modules (RPM). The master unit synchronizes the running configuration and protocol states so that the system fails over in the event of a hardware or software fault on the master unit. In such an event, or when the master unit is removed, the standby unit becomes the stack manager and Dell Networking OS elects a new standby unit.

Removal of only one of the cables does not trigger a reset. Important Points to Remember • You can stack up to six systems. • You cannot stack one system with other system types. • You cannot enable stacking and virtual link trunking (VLT) simultaneously on the device.
Figure 126. Stack-Group Assignments You can connect the units while they are powered down or up. Stacking ports are bi-directional. When a unit is added to a stack, the management unit performs a system check on the new unit to ensure the hardware type is compatible. A similar check is performed on the Dell Networking OS version. If the stack is running Dell Networking OS version 8.3.12.0 and the new unit is running an earlier software version, the new unit is put into a card problem state.

Storm Control 53 Storm control allows you to control unknown-unicast, muticast, and broadcast traffic on Layer 2 and Layer 3 physical interfaces. Dell Networking Operating System (OS) Behavior: Dell Networking OS supports unknown-unicast, muticast, and broadcast control (the storm-control broadcast command) for Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic. Dell Networking OS Behavior: The minimum number of packets per second (PPS) that storm control can limit on the device is two.
• You can only configure storm control for ingress traffic. • If you configure storm control from both INTERFACE and CONFIGURATION mode, the INTERFACE mode configurations override the CONFIGURATION mode configurations. • The storm control is calculated in packets per second. • Configure storm control. • INTERFACE mode Configure the packets per second of broadcast traffic allowed on an interface (ingress only).
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) 54 The spanning tree protocol (STP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Protocol Overview STP is a Layer 2 protocol — specified by IEEE 802.1d — that eliminates loops in a bridged topology by enabling only a single path through the network. By eliminating loops, the protocol improves scalability in a large network and allows you to implement redundant paths, which can be activated after the failure of active paths.
Important Points to Remember • • • • • STP is disabled by default. The Dell Networking OS supports only one spanning tree instance (0). For multiple instances, enable the multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP) or per-VLAN spanning tree plus (PVST+). You may only enable one flavor of spanning tree at any one time. All ports in virtual local area networks (VLANs) and all enabled interfaces in Layer 2 mode are automatically added to the spanning tree topology at the time you enable the protocol.
To configure and enable the interfaces for Layer 2, use the following command. 1. If the interface has been assigned an IP address, remove it. INTERFACE mode no ip address 2. Place the interface in Layer 2 mode. INTERFACE switchport 3. Enable the interface. INTERFACE mode no shutdown Example of the show config Command To verify that an interface is in Layer 2 mode and enabled, use the show config command from INTERFACE mode.
Figure 129. Spanning Tree Enabled Globally To enable STP globally, use the following commands. 1. Enter PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE mode. CONFIGURATION mode protocol spanning-tree 0 2. Enable STP. PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE mode no disable Examples of Verifying Spanning Tree Information To disable STP globally for all Layer 2 interfaces, use the disable command from PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE mode. To verify that STP is enabled, use the show config command from PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE mode.
To view the spanning tree configuration and the interfaces that are participating in STP, use the show spanning-tree 0 command from EXEC privilege mode. If a physical interface is part of a port channel, only the port channel is listed in the command output. R2#show spanning-tree 0 Executing IEEE compatible Spanning Tree Protocol Bridge Identifier has priority 32768, address 0001.e826.ddb7 Configured hello time 2, max age 20, forward delay 15 Current root has priority 32768, address 0001.e80d.
spanning-tree 0 Modifying Global Parameters You can modify the spanning tree parameters. The root bridge sets the values for forward-delay, hellotime, and max-age and overwrites the values set on other bridges participating in STP. NOTE: Dell Networking recommends that only experienced network administrators change the spanning tree parameters. Poorly planned modification of the spanning tree parameters can negatively affect network performance. The following table displays the default values for STP.
PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE mode max-age seconds The range is from 6 to 40. The default is 20 seconds. To view the current values for global parameters, use the show spanning-tree 0 command from EXEC privilege mode. Refer to the second example in Enabling Spanning Tree Protocol Globally. Modifying Interface STP Parameters You can set the port cost and port priority values of interfaces in Layer 2 mode. • Port cost — a value that is based on the interface type.
CAUTION: Enable PortFast only on links connecting to an end station. PortFast can cause loops if it is enabled on an interface connected to a network. To enable PortFast on an interface, use the following command. • Enable PortFast on an interface.
• When you add a physical port to a port channel already in the Error Disable state, the new member port is also disabled in the hardware. • When you remove a physical port from a port channel in the Error Disable state, the Error Disabled state is cleared on this physical port (the physical port is enabled in the hardware). • The reset linecard command does not clear the Error Disabled state of the port or the Hardware Disabled state. The interface continues to be disables in the hardware.

STP Root Guard Use the STP root guard feature in a Layer 2 network to avoid bridging loops. In STP, the switch in the network with the lowest priority (as determined by STP or set with the bridge-priority command) is selected as the root bridge. If two switches have the same priority, the switch with the lower MAC address is selected as the root. All other switches in the network use the root bridge as the reference used to calculate the shortest forwarding path.
Figure 131. STP Root Guard Prevents Bridging Loops Configuring Root Guard Enable STP root guard on a per-port or per-port-channel basis. Dell Networking OS Behavior: The following conditions apply to a port enabled with STP root guard: • Root guard is supported on any STP-enabled port or port-channel interface except when used as a stacking port.
• Enable root guard on a port or port-channel interface. INTERFACE mode or INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode spanning-tree {0 | mstp | rstp | pvst} rootguard – 0: enables root guard on an STP-enabled port assigned to instance 0. – mstp: enables root guard on an MSTP-enabled port. – rstp: enables root guard on an RSTP-enabled port. – pvst: enables root guard on a PVST-enabled port.
STP Loop Guard The STP loop guard feature provides protection against Layer 2 forwarding loops (STP loops) caused by a hardware failure, such as a cable failure or an interface fault. When a cable or interface fails, a participating STP link may become unidirectional (STP requires links to be bidirectional) and an STP port does not receive BPDUs. When an STP blocking port does not receive BPDUs, it transitions to a Forwarding state. This condition can create a loop in the network.
Figure 132. STP Loop Guard Prevents Forwarding Loops Configuring Loop Guard Enable STP loop guard on a per-port or per-port channel basis. The following conditions apply to a port enabled with loop guard: • Loop guard is supported on any STP-enabled port or port-channel interface.
• You cannot enable root guard and loop guard at the same time on an STP port. For example, if you configure loop guard on a port on which root guard is already configured, the following error message is displayed: % Error: RootGuard is configured. Cannot configure LoopGuard. • Enabling Portfast BPDU guard and loop guard at the same time on a port results in a port that remains in a blocking state and prevents traffic from flowing through it.

System Time and Date 56 System time and date settings and the network time protocol (NTP) are supported on Dell Networking OS. You can set system times and dates and maintained through the NTP. They are also set through the Dell Networking Operating System (OS) command line interfaces (CLIs) and hardware settings. The Dell Networking OS supports reaching an NTP server through different VRFs. You can configure a maximum of eight logging servers across different VRFs or the same VRF.
In what may be the most common client/server model, a client sends an NTP message to one or more servers and processes the replies as received. The server interchanges addresses and ports, overwrites certain fields in the message, recalculates the checksum and returns the message immediately. Information included in the NTP message allows the client to determine the server time regarding local time and adjust the local clock accordingly.
Implementation Information Dell Networking systems can only be an NTP client. Configure the Network Time Protocol Configuring NTP is a one-step process. • Enabling NTP Related Configuration Tasks • Configuring NTP Broadcasts • Disabling NTP on an Interface • Configuring a Source IP Address for NTP Packets (optional) Enabling NTP NTP is disabled by default. To enable NTP, specify an NTP server to which the Dell Networking system synchronizes.
• Set the interface to receive NTP packets. INTERFACE mode ntp broadcast client Example of Configuring NTP Broadcasts 2w1d11h : NTP: Maximum Slew:-0.000470, Remainder = -0.496884 Disabling NTP on an Interface By default, NTP is enabled on all active interfaces. If you disable NTP on an interface, Dell Networking OS drops any NTP packets sent to that interface. To disable NTP on an interface, use the following command. • Disable NTP on the interface.
Dell Networking OS Behavior: Dell Networking OS uses an encryption algorithm to store the authentication key that is different from previous Dell Networking OS versions; Dell Networking OS uses data encryption standard (DES) encryption to store the key in the startup-config when you enter the ntp authentication-key command.
ntp master To configure the switch as NTP Server use the ntp master command. stratum number identifies the NTP Server's hierarchy. Examples of Configuring and Viewing an NTP Configuration The following example shows configuring an NTP server. R6_E300(conf)#1w6d23h : NTP: xmit packet to 192.168.1.1: leap 0, mode 3, version 3, stratum 2, ppoll 1024 rtdel 0219 (8.193970), rtdsp AF928 (10973.266602), refid C0A80101 (192.168.1.1) ref CD7F4F63.6BE8F000 (14:51:15.
NOTE: • Leap Indicator (sys.leap, peer.leap, pkt.leap) — This is a two-bit code warning of an impending leap second to be inserted in the NTP time scale. The bits are set before 23:59 on the day of insertion and reset after 00:00 on the following day. This causes the number of seconds (rollover interval) in the day of insertion to be increased or decreased by one.
Dell Networking OS Time and Date You can set the time and date using the Dell Networking OS CLI. Configuration Task List The following is a configuration task list for configuring the time and date settings.
– timezone-name: enter the name of the timezone. Do not use spaces. – offset: enter one of the following: * a number from 1 to 23 as the number of hours in addition to UTC for the timezone. * a minus sign (-) then a number from 1 to 23 as the number of hours.
00:00:00 pacific Sat Nov 7 2009" Setting Recurring Daylight Saving Time Set a date (and time zone) on which to convert the switch to daylight saving time on a specific day every year. If you have already set daylight saving for a one-time setting, you can set that date and time as the recurring setting with the clock summer-time time-zone recurring command. To set a recurring daylight saving time, use the following command.
Examples of the clock summer-time recurring Command The following example shows the clock summer-time recurring command.
Tunneling 57 Tunnel interfaces create a logical tunnel for IPv4 or IPv6 traffic. Tunneling supports RFC 2003, RFC 2473, and 4213. DSCP, hop-limits, flow label values, open shortest path first (OSPF) v2, and OSPFv3 are supported. Internet control message protocol (ICMP) error relay, PATH MTU transmission, and fragmented packets are not supported. Configuring a Tunnel You can configure a tunnel in IPv6 mode, IPv6IP mode, and IPIP mode.
! interface Tunnel 2 no ip address ipv6 address 2::1/64 tunnel destination 90.1.1.1 tunnel source 60.1.1.1 tunnel mode ipv6ip no shutdown The following sample configuration shows a tunnel configured in IPIP mode (IPv4 tunnel carries IPv4 and IPv6 traffic): Dell(conf)#interface tunnel 3 Dell(conf-if-tu-3)#tunnel source 5::5 Dell(conf-if-tu-3)#tunnel destination 8::9 Dell(conf-if-tu-3)#tunnel mode ipv6 Dell(conf-if-tu-3)#ip address 3.1.1.
Configuring a Tunnel Interface You can configure the tunnel interface using the ip unnumbered and ipv6 unnumbered commands. To configure the tunnel interface to operate without a unique explicit IP or IPv6 address, select the interface from which the tunnel borrows its address. The following sample configuration shows how to use the interface tunnel configuration commands. Dell(conf-if-te-1/1)#show config ! interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 ip address 20.1.1.
tunnel mode ipip decapsulate-any no shutdown Configuring the Tunnel Source Anylocal You can use the anylocal argument in place of the ip address or interface, but only with multipoint receive-only mode tunnels. The tunnel source anylocal command allows the multipoint receiveonly tunnel to decapsulate tunnel packets addressed to any IPv4 or IPv6 (depending on the tunnel mode) address configured on the switch that is operationally UP.
Uplink Failure Detection (UFD) 58 Uplink failure detection (UFD) provides detection of the loss of upstream connectivity and, if used with network interface controller (NIC) teaming, automatic recovery from a failed link. Feature Description A switch provides upstream connectivity for devices, such as servers. If a switch loses its upstream connectivity, downstream devices also lose their connectivity.
Figure 135. Uplink Failure Detection How Uplink Failure Detection Works UFD creates an association between upstream and downstream interfaces. The association of uplink and downlink interfaces is called an uplink-state group. An interface in an uplink-state group can be a physical interface or a port-channel (LAG) aggregation of physical interfaces. An enabled uplink-state group tracks the state of all assigned upstream interfaces.
Figure 136. Uplink Failure Detection Example If only one of the upstream interfaces in an uplink-state group goes down, a specified number of downstream ports associated with the upstream interface are put into a Link-Down state. You can configure this number and is calculated by the ratio of the upstream port bandwidth to the downstream port bandwidth in the same uplink-state group.
– An uplink-state group is considered to be operationally down if it has no upstream interfaces in the Link-Up state. No uplink-state tracking is performed when a group is disabled or in an Operationally Down state. • You can assign a physical port or port-channel interfaces to an uplink-state group. – You can assign an interface to only one uplink-state group. Configure each interface assigned to an uplink-state group as either an upstream or downstream interface, but not both.
• For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information. Where port-range and port-channel-range specify a range of ports separated by a dash (-) and/or individual ports/port channels in any order; for example: upstream tengigabitethernet 1/1-1/2,1/5,1/9,1/11-1/12 downstream port-channel 1-3,5 • A comma is required to separate each port and port-range entry. To delete an interface from the group, use the no {upstream | downstream} interface command. 3.
Clearing a UFD-Disabled Interface You can manually bring up a downstream interface in an uplink-state group that UFD disabled and is in a UFD-Disabled Error state. To re-enable one or more disabled downstream interfaces and clear the UFD-Disabled Error state, use the following command. • Re-enable a downstream interface on the switch/router that is in a UFD-Disabled Error State so that it can send and receive traffic.

Virtual LANs (VLANs) 60 Virtual LANs (VLANs) are a logical broadcast domain or logical grouping of interfaces in a local area network (LAN) in which all data received is kept locally and broadcast to all members of the group. When in Layer 2 mode, VLANs move traffic at wire speed and can span multiple devices. The system supports up to 4093 port-based VLANs and one default VLAN, as specified in IEEE 802.1Q.
By default, VLAN 1 is the Default VLAN. To change that designation, use the default vlan-id command in CONFIGURATION mode. You cannot delete the Default VLAN. NOTE: You cannot assign an IP address to the Default VLAN. To assign an IP address to a VLAN that is currently the Default VLAN, create another VLAN and assign it to be the Default VLAN. For more information about assigning IP addresses, refer to Assigning an IP Address to a VLAN. • Untagged interfaces must be part of a VLAN.
information is preserved as the frame moves through the network. The following example shows the structure of a frame with a tag header. The VLAN ID is inserted in the tag header. Figure 137. Tagged Frame Format The tag header contains some key information that Dell Networking OS uses: • The VLAN protocol identifier identifies the frame as tagged according to the IEEE 802.1Q specifications (2 bytes). • Tag control information (TCI) includes the VLAN ID (2 bytes total).
• Configure a port-based VLAN (if the VLAN-ID is different from the Default VLAN ID) and enter INTERFACE VLAN mode. CONFIGURATION mode interface vlan vlan-id To activate the VLAN, after you create a VLAN, assign interfaces in Layer 2 mode to the VLAN. Example of Verifying a Port-Based VLAN To view the configured VLANs, use the show vlan command in EXEC Privilege mode.
command. In a port-based VLAN, use the tagged command to add the interface to another VLAN. The show vlan command output displays the interface’s (po 1) changed status. Except for hybrid ports, only a tagged interface can be a member of multiple VLANs. You can assign hybrid ports to two VLANs if the port is untagged in one VLAN and tagged in all others.
Move an Untagged Interface to Another VLAN The no untagged interface command removes the untagged interface from a port-based VLAN and places the interface in the Default VLAN. You cannot use the no untagged interface command in the Default VLAN. The following example shows the steps and commands to move an untagged interface from the Default VLAN to another VLAN. To determine interface status, use the show vlan command. Interface (1/2) is untagged and in the Default VLAN (vlan 1).
To assign an IP address, use the following command. • Configure an IP address and mask on the interface. INTERFACE mode ip address ip-address mask [secondary] – ip-address mask — Enter an address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D) and the mask must be in slash format (/24). – secondary — This is the interface’s backup IP address. You can configure up to eight secondary IP addresses.
Enabling Null VLAN as the Default VLAN In a Carrier Ethernet for Metro Service environment, service providers who perform frequent reconfigurations for customers with changing requirements occasionally enable multiple interfaces, each connected to a different customer, before the interfaces are fully configured. This presents a vulnerability because both interfaces are initially placed in the native VLAN, VLAN 1, and for that period customers are able to access each other's networks.
VLT Proxy Gateway 61 The Virtual link trucking (VLT) proxy gateway feature allows a VLT domain to locally terminate and route L3 packets that are destined to a Layer 3 (L3) end point in another VLT domain. Enable the VLT proxy gateway using the link layer discover protocol (LLDP) method or the static configuration. For more information, refer to Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide.
Figure 138. Sample Configuration for a VLT Proxy Gateway Guidelines for Enabling the VLT Proxy Gateway Keep the following points in mind when you enable a VLT proxy gateway: • Proxy gateway is supported only for VLT; for example, across a VLT domain. • You must enable the VLT peer-routing command for the VLT proxy gateway to function.
subnet, there is no dynamic route asymmetry. But if you configure a static route on one DC and not on the other, there is asymmetry. • If the port-channel specified in the proxy-gateway command is not a VLT LAG, the configuration is rejected by the CLI. • You cannot change the VLT LAG to a legacy LAG when it is part of proxy-gateway. • You cannot change the link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) port channel interface to a legacy LAG when you enable a proxy gateway.
LLDP Organizational TLV for Proxy Gateway • LLDP defines an organizationally specific TLV (type 127) with a unique identifier (0x0001E8) and a defined subtype (0x01) for sending or receiving information. • LLDP uses the existing infrastructure and adds a new TLV for sending and receiving on the configured ports. • There are only a few MAC addresses for each unit transmitted. All currently active MAC addresses are carried on the newly defined TLV.
Figure 139. Sample Configuration for a VLT Proxy Gateway • The above figure shows a sample VLT Proxy gateway scenario. There are no diagonal links in the square VLT connection between the C and D in VLT domain 1 and C1 and D1 in the VLT domain 2. This causes sub-optimal routing with the VLT Proxy Gateway LLDP method.
address of D1, it may be dropped. This behavior is applicable only in an LLDP configuration; in a static configuration, the packet is forwarded. • Any L3 packet, when it gets an L3 hit and is routed, it has a time to live (TTL) decrement as expected. • You can disable the VLT Proxy Gateway for a particular VLAN using an "Exclude-VLAN" configuration. The configuration has to be done in both the VLT domains [C and D in VLT domain 1 and C1 and D1 in VLT domain 2].
2. Configure remote-mac-address in VLT Domain Proxy Gateway LLDP mode. Configure the system mac-addresses of both C and D in C1 and also in D1 in the remote VLT domain and vice versa. Sample Static Configuration on C switch or C1 switch Switch_C#conf Switch_C(conf)#vlt domain 1 Switch_C(conf-vlt-domain1)#proxy-gateway static Switch_C(conf-vlt-domain1-pxy-gw-static)#remote-mac-address ....
62 Virtual Link Trunking (VLT) Virtual link trunking (VLT) allows physical links between two chassis to appear as a single virtual link to the network core or other switches such as Edge, Access, or top-of-rack (ToR). Overview VLT reduces the role of spanning tree protocols (STPs) by allowing link aggregation group (LAG) terminations on two separate distribution or core switches and supporting a loop-free topology.
Figure 140. Example of VLT Deployment VLT on Core Switches Uplinks from servers to the access layer and from access layer to the aggregation layer are bundled in LAG groups with end-to-end Layer 2 multipathing. This set up requires “horizontal” stacking at the access layer and VLT at the aggregation layer such that all the uplinks from servers to access and access to aggregation are in Active-Active Load Sharing mode.
Figure 141. Enhanced VLT VLT Terminology The following are key VLT terms. • Virtual link trunk (VLT) — The combined port channel between an attached device and the VLT peer switches. • VLT backup link — The backup link monitors the vitality of VLT peer switches. The backup link sends configurable, periodic keep alive messages between the VLT peer switches. • VLT interconnect (VLTi) — The link used to synchronize states between the VLT peer switches. Both ends must be on 10G or 40G interfaces.
Configure Virtual Link Trunking VLT requires that you enable the feature and then configure the same VLT domain, backup link, and VLT interconnect on both peer switches. Important Points to Remember • You cannot enable stacking simultaneously with VLT. If you enable both at the same time, unexpected behavior occurs. Refer to VLT and Stacking. • VLT port channel interfaces must be switch ports. • If you include RSTP on the system, configure it before VLT. Refer to Configure Rapid Spanning Tree.
• For multiple VLT LAGs configured on the same VLAN, if a host is learned on one VLT LAG and there is a station move between LAGs, the link local address redirects to the VLTi link on one of the peers. If this occurs, clear the link local address that is redirecting to the VLTi link. • VLT Heartbeat is supported only on default VRFs.
– The chassis members in a VLT domain support connection to orphan hosts and switches that are not connected to both switches in the VLT core. • VLT interconnect (VLTi) – The VLT interconnect must consist of either 10G or 40G ports. A maximum of eight 10G or four 40G ports is supported. A combination of 10G and 40G ports is not supported. – A VLT interconnect over 1G ports is not supported. – The port channel must be in Default mode (not Switchport mode) to have VLTi recognize it.
– In the backup link between peer switches, heartbeat messages are exchanged between the two chassis for health checks. The default time interval between heartbeat messages over the backup link is 1 second. You can configure this interval. The range is from 1 to 5 seconds. DSCP marking on heartbeat messages is CS6.
* Ingress and egress QoS policies applied on VLT ports must be the same on both VLT peers. * You should apply the same ingress and egress QoS policies on VLTi (ICL) member ports to handle failed links. – For detailed information about how to use VRRP in a VLT domain, refer to the following VLT and VRRP interoperability section. – For information about configuring IGMP Snooping in a VLT domain, refer to VLT and IGMP Snooping.
switch disables its VLT port channels. If keepalive messages from the peer are not being received, the peer continues to forward traffic, assuming that it is the last device available in the network. In either case, after recovery of the peer link or reestablishment of message forwarding across the interconnect trunk, the two VLT peers resynchronize any MAC addresses learned while communication was interrupted and the VLT system continues normal data forwarding.
VLT Bandwidth Monitoring When bandwidth usage of the VLTi (ICL) exceeds 80%, a syslog error message (shown in the following message) and an SNMP trap are generated. %STKUNIT0-M:CP %VLTMGR-6-VLT-LAG-ICL: Overall Bandwidth utilization of VLT-ICLLAG (port-channel 25) crosses threshold. Bandwidth usage (80 ) When the bandwidth usage drops below the 80% threshold, the system generates another syslog message (shown in the following message) and an SNMP trap.
between bringing up each VLT port-channel is proportional to the number of physical members in the port-channel. The default is 90 seconds. To change the duration of the configurable timer, use the delay-restore command. If you enable IGMP snooping, IGMP queries are also sent out on the VLT ports at this time allowing any receivers to respond to the queries and update the multicast table on the new node.
Figure 142. PIM-Sparse Mode Support on VLT On each VLAN where the VLT peer nodes act as the first hop or last hop routers, one of the VLT peer nodes is elected as the PIM designated router. If you configured IGMP snooping along with PIM on the VLT VLANs, you must configure VLTi as the static multicast router port on both VLT peer switches. This ensures that for first hop routers, the packets from the source are redirected to the designated router (DR) if they are incorrectly hashed.
To route traffic to and from the multicast source and receiver, enable PIM on the L3 side connected to the PIM router using the ip pim sparse-mode command. Each VLT peer runs its own PIM protocol independently of other VLT peers. To ensure the PIM protocol states or multicast routing information base (MRIB) on the VLT peers are synced, if the incoming interface (IIF) and outgoing interface (OIF) are Spanned, the multicast route table is synced between the VLT peers.
• L3 routing is enabled on any new IP address / IPv6 address configured for a VLAN interface that is up. • L3 routing is enabled on any VLAN with an admin state of up. NOTE: If the CAM is full, do not enable peer-routing. NOTE: The peer routing and peer-routing-timeout is applicable for both IPv6/ IPv4. Configuring VLT Unicast To enable and configure VLT unicast, follow these steps. 1. Enable VLT on a switch, then configure a VLT domain and enter VLT-domain configuration mode.
node to choose a different VLAN or IP route to reach the PIM neighbor. This can result in issues with multicast route syncing between peers. • Both VLT peers require symmetric Layer 2 and Layer 3 configurations on both VLT peers for any spanned VLAN. • For optimal performance, configure the VLT VLAN routing metrics to prefer VLT VLAN interfaces over non-VLT VLAN interfaces.
Run RSTP on both VLT peer switches. The primary VLT peer controls the RSTP states, such as forwarding and blocking, on both the primary and secondary peers. Dell Networking recommends configuring the primary VLT peer as the RSTP primary root device and configuring the secondary VLT peer as the RSTP secondary root device. BPDUs use the MAC address of the primary VLT peer as the RSTP bridge ID in the designated bridge ID field.

VLT DOMAIN CONFIGURATION mode primary-priority value The priority values are from 1 to 65535. The default is 32768. If the primary peer fails, the secondary peer (with the higher priority) takes the primary role. If the primary peer (with the lower priority) later comes back online, it is assigned the secondary role (there is no preemption). 5.
To set an amount of time, in seconds, to delay the system from restoring the VLT port, use the delayrestore command at any time. For more information, refer to VLT Port Delayed Restoration. Configuring a VLT Port Delay Period To configure a VLT port delay period, use the following commands. 1. Enter VLT-domain configuration mode for a specified VLT domain. CONFIGURATION mode vlt domain domain-id The range of domain IDs from 1 to 1000. 2.
4. (Optional) When you create a VLT domain on a switch, Dell Networking OS automatically assigns a unique unit ID (0 or 1) to each peer switch. VLT DOMAIN CONFIGURATION mode unit-id {0 | 1} To explicitly configure the default values on each peer switch, use the unit-id command. Configure a different unit ID (0 or 1) on each peer switch. Unit IDs are used for internal system operations.
vlt-peer-lag port-channel id-number The valid port-channel ID numbers are from 1 to 128. 7. Repeat Steps 1 to 6 on the VLT peer switch to configure the same port channel as part of the VLT domain. 8. On an attached switch or server: To connect to the VLT domain and add port channels to it, configure a port channel. For an example of how to verify the port-channel configuration, refer to VLT Sample Configuration.
INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode channel-member interface interface: specify one of the following interface types: • For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/ port[/subport] information. • 3.

CONFIGURATION mode vlt domain domain-id The range of domain IDs is from 1 to 1000. 4.
Configure a different unit ID (0 or 1) on each peer switch. Use this command to minimize the time required for the VLT system to determine the unit ID assigned to each peer switch when one peer switch reboots. 8. Configure enhanced VLT. Configure the port channel to be used for the VLT interconnect on a VLT switch and enter interface configuration mode.
VLT Sample Configuration To review a sample VLT configuration setup, study these steps. 1. Configure the VLT domain with the same ID in VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2. VLT DOMAIN mode vlt domain domain id 2. Configure the VLTi between VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2. 3. You can configure LACP/static LAG between the peer units (not shown).
EXEC mode or EXEC Privilege mode show interfaces interface Example of Configuring VLT In the following sample VLT configuration steps, VLT peer 1 is Dell-2, VLT peer 2 is Dell-4, and the ToR is S60-1. NOTE: If you use a third-party ToR unit, Dell Networking recommends using static LAGs with VLT peers to avoid potential problems if you reboot the VLT peers. Configure the VLT domain with the same ID in VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2.
2. Configure the VLT peer link port channel id in VLT peer 1 and VLT peer 2. 3. In the Top of Rack unit, configure LACP in the physical ports (shown for VLT peer 1 only. Repeat steps for VLT peer 2. The bold vlt-peer-lag port-channel 2 indicates that port-channel 2 is the port-channel id configured in VLT peer 2).
Verify VLT is up. Verify that the VLTi (ICL) link, backup link connectivity (heartbeat status), and VLT peer link (peer chassis) are all up.
Sample PVST+ Configuration The following examples show the PVST+ configuration that you must perform on each peer switch to prevent forwarding loops.
In Domain 1, configure Peer 1 fist, then configure Peer 2. When that is complete, perform the same steps for the peer nodes in Domain 2. The interface used in this example is TenGigabitEthernet. Figure 143. eVLT Configuration Example eVLT Configuration Step Examples In Domain 1, configure the VLT domain and VLTi on Peer 1.

Reconfiguring Stacked Switches as VLT To convert switches that have been stacked to VLT peers, use the following procedure. 1. Remove the current configuration from the switches. You will need to split the configuration up for each switch. 2. Copy the files to the flash memory of the appropriate switch. 3. Copy the files on the flash drive to the startup-config. 4. Reset the stacking ports to user ports for both switches. 5. Reload the stack and confirm the new configurations have been applied. 6.
Keep the following points in mind when you configure VLT nodes in a PVLAN: • Configure the VLTi link to be in trunk mode. Do not configure the VLTi link to be in access or promiscuous mode. • You can configure a VLT LAG or port channel to be in trunk, access, or promiscuous port modes when you include the VLT LAG in a PVLAN. The VLT LAG settings must be the same on both the peers. If you configure a VLT LAG as a trunk port, you can associate that LAG to be a member of a normal VLAN or a PVLAN.
and the VLAN is a primary VLT VLAN on one peer and not a primary VLT VLAN on the other peer, MAC synchronization does not occur. Whenever a change occurs in the VLAN mode of one of the peers, this modification is synchronized with the other peers. Depending on the validation mechanism that is initiated for MAC synchronization of VLT peers, MAC addresses learned on a particular VLAN are either synchronized with the other peers, or MAC addresses synchronized from the other peers on the same VLAN are deleted.
Scenarios for VLAN Membership and MAC Synchronization With VLT Nodes in PVLAN The following table illustrates the association of the VLTi link and PVLANs, and the MAC synchronization of VLT nodes in a PVLAN (for various modes of operations of the VLT peers): Table 96.

INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode no ip address 3. Add one or more port interfaces to the port channel. INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode channel-member interface interface: specify one of the following interface types: 4. • 1-Gigabit Ethernet: Enter gigabitethernet slot/port. • 10-Gigabit Ethernet: Enter tengigabitethernet slot/port. Ensure that the port channel is active. INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode no shutdown 5. To configure the VLT interconnect, repeat Steps 1–4 on the VLT peer switch. 6.
4. Select the PVLAN mode. INTERFACE mode switchport mode private-vlan {host | promiscuous | trunk} 5. • host (isolated or community VLAN port) • promiscuous (intra-VLAN communication port) • trunk (inter-switch PVLAN hub port) Access INTERFACE VLAN mode for the VLAN to which you want to assign the PVLAN interfaces. CONFIGURATION mode interface vlan vlan-id 6. Enable the VLAN. INTERFACE VLAN mode no shutdown 7.
replace VRRP with routed VLT to route the traffic from Layer 2 access nodes. With proxy ARP, hosts can resolve the MAC address of the VLT node even when VLT node is down. If the ICL link is down when a VLT node receives an ARP request for the IP address of the VLT peer, owing to LAG-level hashing algorithm in the top-of-rack (TOR) switch, the incorrect VLT node responds to the ARP request with the peer MAC address. Proxy ARP is not performed when the ICL link is up and the ARP request the wrong VLT peer.
When the VLT domain is removed on one of the VLT nodes, the peer routing configuration removal will be notified to the peer. In this case VLT peer node disables the proxy ARP. When the ICL link is removed on one of the VLT nodes by using the no peer-link command, the ICL down event is triggered on the other VLT node, which in turn starts the proxy ARP application.
Configuring VLAN-Stack over VLT To configure VLAN-stack over VLT, follow these steps. 1. Configure the VLT LAG as VLAN-stack access or trunk mode on both the peers. INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode vlan-stack {access | trunk} 2. Configure VLAN as VLAN-stack compatible on both the peers. INTERFACE VLAN mode vlan-stack compatible 3. Add the VLT LAG as a member to the VLAN-stack on both the peers. INTERFACE VLAN mode member port-channel port—channel ID 4. Verify the VLAN-stack configurations.

nodes on the same network as the VLT interface. These learned neighbor entries are propagated to another VLT node so that the peer does not need to relearn the entries. Working of IPv6 Peer Routing When peer routing is enabled on VLT nodes, the MAC address of the peer VLT node is stored in the ternary content addressable memory (TCAM) space table of a station.
appropriate VLT node can mimic the ingress port as the VLT interface rather than pointing to VLT node’s interconnecting link (ICL link). The overall tunneling process involves the VLT nodes that are connected from TOR through a LAG. The picture below is a basic VLT setup, which describes the communication between VLT nodes to tunnel the NA from one VLT node to its peer. NA messages can be sent in two types of scenarios: • Sometimes NA messages are sent by a node when its link-layer address is changed.
Unit2 is linked to a node, Node C. The network between TOR to VLT Nodes is purely L2 in nature. Servers or hosts that are connected to the ToR (Node B) generate the L3 control/data traffic from the South or lower-end of the vertically-aligned network. Figure 145.
If NA is intended for VLT peer and DIP is LLA of peer, it is lifted to CPU and tunneled to the peer. VLT nodes will drop NA packet, If NA is received over ICL without tunneling header. Neighbor Solicitation from Non-VLT Hosts Consider a sample scenario in which NS for VLT node1 IP reaches VLT node1 on non-VLT interface and NS for VLT node1 IP reaches VLT node2 on non-VLT interface. When VLT node1 receives NS from nonVLT interface, it unicasts NA packet on the received interface.
When a VLT node receives traffic from north bound intended to the VLT host, it does neighbor entry lookup and routes traffic to VLT interface. If VLT interface is not operationally up the VLT node routes the traffic over ICL. If neighbor entry is not present the VLT node will resolve the destination. There may be traffic loss during neighbor resolution period. VLT host to Non-VLT host traffic flow When VLT node receives traffic intended to non-VLT host, it routes the traffic over non-VLT interface.
During an upgrade to Release 9.4(0.0) from earlier releases, VLT peers might contain different versions of FTOS. You must upgrade both the VLT peers to Release 9.4(0.0) to leverage the benefits of IPv6 peer routing. Station Movement When a host moves from VLT interface to non-VLT interface or vice versa Neighbor entry is updated and synchronized to VLT peer. When a host moves from non-VLT interface of VLT node1 to non-VLT interface of VLT node2 neighbor entry is updated and synchronized to VLT peer.
Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) 63 Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Overview The switch acts as the VXLAN gateway and performs the VXLAN Tunnel End Point (VTEP) functionality. VXLAN is a technology where in the data traffic from the virtualized servers is transparently transported over an existing legacy network. Figure 146.
Components of VXLAN network VXLAN provides a mechanism to extend an L2 network over an L3 network. In short, VXLAN is an L2 overlay scheme over an L3 network and this overlay is termed as a VXLAN segment.
VXLAN Hypervisor It is the VTEP that connects the Virtual Machines (VM) to the underlay legacy network to the physical infrastructure. Service Node(SN) It is also another VTEP, but it is fully managed by NSX. The purpose of SN is to be the central replication engine for flooded packets Legacy TOR It is a TOR switch, which performs routing or switching decisions. Functional Overview of VXLAN Gateway The following section is the functional overview of VXLAN Gateway: 1.
Figure 147. VXLAN Frame Format Components of VXLAN Frame Format Some of the important fields of the VXLAN frame format are described below: Outer Ethernet Header: Outer IP Header: Outer UDP Header: The Outer Ethernet Header consists of the following components: • Destination Address: Generally, it is a first hop router's MAC address when the VTEP is on a different address. • Source Address : It is the source MAC address of the router that routes the packet.
VXLAN Header : Frame Check Sequence (FCS): • VXLAN Flags : Reserved bits set to zero except bit 3, the first bit, which is set to 1 for a valid VNI • VNI: The 24-bit field that is the VXLAN Network Identifier • Reserved: A set of fields, 24 bits and 8 bits, that are reserved and set to zero . Note that the original Ethernet frame's FCS is not included, but new FCS is generated on the outer Ethernet frame.
Figure 150. Create Transport Connector 2. Create Service Node To create service node, the required fields are the IP address and SSL certificate of the server. The Service node is responsible for broadcast/unknown unicast/multicast traffic replication. The following is the snapshot of the user interface for the creation of service node: Figure 151. Create Service Node 3. Create VXLAN Gateway To create a VXLAN L2 Gateway, the IP address of the Gateway is mandatory.
You can create a logical network by creating a logical switch. The logical network acts as the forwarding domain for workloads on the physical as well as virtual infrastructure. Figure 153. Create Logical Switch 5. Create Logical Switch Port A logical switch port provides a logical connection point for a VM interface (VIF) and a L2 gateway connection to an external network. It binds the virtual access ports in the GW to logical network (VXLAN) and VLAN. Figure 154.

Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) 64 Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) allows a physical router to partition itself into multiple Virtual Routers (VRs). The control and data plane are isolated in each VR so that traffic does NOT flow across VRs.Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) allows multiple instances of a routing table to co-exist within the same router at the same time. VRF Overview VRF improves functionality by allowing network paths to be segmented without using multiple devices.
Figure 155. VRF Network Example VRF Configuration Notes Although there is no restriction on the number of VLANs that can be assigned to a VRF instance, the total number of routes supported in VRF is limited by the size of the IPv4 CAM. VRF is implemented in a network device by using Forwarding Information Bases (FIBs). A network device may have the ability to configure different virtual routers, where entries in the FIB that belong to one VRF cannot be accessed by another VRF on the same device.
Dell Networking OS uses both the VRF name and VRF ID to manage VRF instances. The VRF name and VRF ID number are assigned using the ip vrf command. The VRF ID is displayed in show ip vrf command output. The VRF ID is not exchanged between routers. VRF IDs are local to a router. VRF supports some routing protocols only on the default VRF (default-vrf) instance. Table 1 displays the software features supported in VRF and whether they are supported on all VRF instances or only the default VRF. Table 97.
Feature/Capability Support Status for Default VRF Support Status for Non-default VRF NOTE: ACLs supported on all VRF VLAN ports. IPv4 ACLs are supported on nondefault-VRFs also. IPv6 ACLs are supported on defaultVRF only. PBR supported on default-VRF only. QoS not supported on VLANs.
DHCP DHCP requests are not forwarded across VRF instances. The DHCP client and server must be on the same VRF instance. VRF Configuration The VRF configuration tasks are: 1. Enabling VRF in Configuration Mode 2. Creating a Non-Default VRF 3. Assign an Interface to a VRF You can also: • View VRF Instance Information • Connect an OSPF Process to a VRF Instance • Configure VRRP on a VRF Load VRF CAM VRF is enabled by default on the switch.
NOTE: You can configure an IP address or subnet on a physical or VLAN interface that overlaps the same IP address or subnet configured on another interface only if the interfaces are assigned to different VRFs. If two interfaces are assigned to the same VRF, you cannot configure overlapping IP subnets or the same IP address on them. Table 100.

0/0 Dell# 00:20:19 Route Leaking VRFs Static routes can be used to redistribute routes between non-default to default/non-default VRF and vice-versa. You can configure route leaking between two VRFs using the following command: ip route vrf x.x.x.x s.s.s.s nh.nh.nh.nh vrf default. This command indicates that packets that are destined to x.x.x.x/s.s.s.s are reachable through nh.nh.nh.nh in the default VRF table. Meaning, the routes to x.x.x.x/s.s.s.
After the target VRF learns routes that are leaked by the source VRF, the source VRF in turn can leak the export target corresponding to the destination VRFs that have imported its routes. The source VRF learns the export target corresponding to the destinations VRF using the ip route-import tag or ipv6 route-import tag command. This mechanism enables reverse communication between destination VRF and the source VRF.

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) 65 Virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP) is designed to eliminate a single point of failure in a statically routed network. VRRP Overview VRRP is designed to eliminate a single point of failure in a statically routed network. VRRP specifies a MASTER router that owns the next hop IP and MAC address for end stations on a local area network (LAN).
Figure 158. Basic VRRP Configuration VRRP Benefits With VRRP configured on a network, end-station connectivity to the network is not subject to a single point-of-failure. End-station connections to the network are redundant and are not dependent on internal gateway protocol (IGP) protocols to converge or update routing tables. VRRP Implementation Within a single VRRP group, up to 12 virtual IP addresses are supported.
decreases based on the dynamics of the network, the advertisement intervals may increase or decrease accordingly. CAUTION: Increasing the advertisement interval increases the VRRP Master dead interval, resulting in an increased failover time for Master/Backup election. Take caution when increasing the advertisement interval, as the increased dead interval may cause packets to be dropped during that switch-over time. Table 108.
• Create a virtual router for that interface with a VRID. INTERFACE mode vrrp-group vrid The VRID range is from 1 to 255. • NOTE: The interface must already have a primary IP address defined and be enabled, as shown in the second example. Delete a VRRP group. INTERFACE mode no vrrp-group vrid Examples of Configuring and Verifying VRRP The following examples how to configure VRRP.
To migrate an IPv4 VRRP group from VRRPv2 to VRRPv3: 1. Set the switches with the lowest priority to “both”. 2. Set the switch with the highest priority to version to 3. 3. Set all the switches from both to version 3. NOTE: Do not run VRRP version 2 and version 3 in the same group for an extended period of time Example: Migrating an IPv4 VRRP Group from VRRPv2 to VRRPv3 NOTE: Carefully following this procedure, otherwise you might introduce dual master switches issues.
• • group and the interface’s physical MAC address is changed to that of the owner VRRP group’s MAC address. If you configure multiple VRRP groups on an interface, only one of the VRRP Groups can contain the interface primary or secondary IP address. On a stack system, if a force failover is performed on a master stack unit, the VRRP virtual addresses are disabled. To re-enable VRRP, execute the mac-address-table station-move refresh-arp command.

When you enable authentication, Dell Networking OS includes the password in its VRRP transmission.
Because preempt is enabled by default, disable the preempt function with the following command. • Prevent any BACKUP router with a higher priority from becoming the MASTER router. INTERFACE-VRID mode no preempt Examples of Disabling Preempt Re-enable preempt by entering the preempt command. When you enable preempt, it does not display in the show commands, because it is a default setting. The following example shows how to disable preempt using the no preempt command.
advertise-interval seconds The range is from 1 to 255 seconds. • The default is 1 second. For VRRPv3, change the advertisement centisecs interval setting. INTERFACE-VRID mode advertise-interval centisecs centisecs The range is from 25 to 4075 centisecs in units of 25 centisecs. The default is 100 centisecs. Examples of the advertise-interval Command The following example shows how to change the advertise interval using the advertise-interval command.
• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port[/ subport] information. • For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information. • For a port channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number. • For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword vlan then a number from 1 to 4094.

You can delay VRRP initialization to allow the IGP and EGP protocols to be enabled prior to selecting the VRRP Master. This delay ensures that VRRP initializes with no errors or conflicts. You can configure the delay for up to 15 minutes, after which VRRP enables normally.
Sample Configurations Before you set up VRRP, review the following sample configurations. VRRP for an IPv4 Configuration The following configuration shows how to enable IPv4 VRRP. This example does not contain comprehensive directions and is intended to provide guidance for only a typical VRRP configuration. You can copy and paste from the example to your CLI. To support your own IP addresses, interfaces, names, and so on, be sure that you make the necessary changes.
Examples of Configuring VRRP for IPv4 and IPv6 The following example shows configuring VRRP for IPv4 Router 2. R2(conf)#interface tengigabitethernet 2/31 R2(conf-if-te-2/31)#ip address 10.1.1.1/24 R2(conf-if-te-2/31)#vrrp-group 99 R2(conf-if-te-2/31-vrid-99)#priority 200 R2(conf-if-te-2/31-vrid-99)#virtual 10.1.1.3 R2(conf-if-te-2/31-vrid-99)#no shut R2(conf-if-te-2/31)#show conf ! interface TenGigabitEthernet 2/31 ip address 10.1.1.1/24 ! vrrp-group 99 priority 200 virtual-address 10.1.1.
Figure 160. VRRP for an IPv6 Configuration NOTE: In a VRRP or VRRPv3 group, if two routers come up with the same priority and another router already has MASTER status, the router with master status continues to be MASTER even if one of two routers has a higher IP or IPv6 address. The following example shows configuring VRRP for IPv6 Router 2 and Router 3. Configure a virtual link local (fe80) address for each VRRPv3 group created for an interface.
Although R2 and R3 have the same default, priority (100), R2 is elected master in the VRRPv3 group because the TenGigabitethernet 1/1 interface has a higher IPv6 address than the TenGigabitethernet 1/2 interface on R3.
Virtual MAC address: 00:00:5e:00:02:0a VRRP in a VRF Configuration The following example shows how to enable VRRP operation in a VRF virtualized network for the following scenarios. • Multiple VRFs on physical interfaces running VRRP. • Multiple VRFs on VLAN interfaces running VRRP. To view a VRRP in a VRF configuration, use the show commands. VRRP in a VRF: Non-VLAN Scenario The following example shows how to enable VRRP in a non-VLAN.

VLAN Scenario In another scenario, to connect to the LAN, VRF-1, VRF-2, and VRF-3 use a single physical interface with multiple tagged VLANs (instead of separate physical interfaces). In this case, you configure three VLANs: VLAN-100, VLAN-200, and VLAN-300. Each VLAN is a member of one VRF. A physical interface (tengigabitethernet 1/1 ) attaches to the LAN and is configured as a tagged interface in VLAN-100, VLAN-200, and VLAN-300. The rest of this example is similar to the nonVLAN scenario.

Figure 162. VRRP for IPv6 Topology NOTE: This example does not contain comprehensive directions and is intended to provide guidance for only a typical VRRP configuration. You can copy and paste from the example to your CLI. Be sure you make the necessary changes to support your own IP addresses, interfaces, names, and so on.
NOTE: You must configure a virtual link local (fe80) address for each VRRPv3 group created for an interface. The VRRPv3 group becomes active as soon as you configure the link local address. Afterwards, you can configure the group’s virtual IPv6 address. R2(conf-if-te-1/1-vrid-10)#virtual-address fe80::10 NOTE: The virtual IPv6 address you configure should be the same as the IPv6 subnet to which the interface belongs.

Debugging and Diagnostics 66 This chapter describes debugging and diagnostics for the device. Offline Diagnostics The offline diagnostics test suite is useful for isolating faults and debugging hardware. The diagnostics tests are grouped into three levels: • Level 0 — Level 0 diagnostics check for the presence of various components and perform essential path verifications. In addition, Level 0 diagnostics verify the identification registers of the components on the board.
NOTE: The system reboots when the offline diagnostics complete. This is an automatic process. The following warning message appears when you implement the offline stackunit command: Warning - Diagnostic execution will cause stack-unit to reboot after completion of diags. Proceed with Offline-Diags [confirm yes/no]:y After the system goes offline, you must reload or run the online stack-unit stack-unit-number command for the normal operation. 2. Confirm the offline status.

Trace Logs In addition to the syslog buffer, Dell Networking OS buffers trace messages which are continuously written by various Dell Networking OS software tasks to report hardware and software events and status information. Each trace message provides the date, time, and name of the Dell Networking OS process. All messages are stored in a ring buffer. You can save the messages to a file either manually or automatically after failover.

When the system detects a genuine over-temperature condition, it powers off the card. To recognize this condition, look for the following system messages: CHMGR-2-MAJOR_TEMP: Major alarm: chassis temperature high (temperature reaches or exceeds threshold of [value]C) CHMGR-2-TEMP_SHUTDOWN_WARN: WARNING! temperature is [value]C; approaching shutdown threshold of [value]C To view the programmed alarm thresholds levels, including the shutdown value, use the show alarms threshold command.
Troubleshoot an Under-Voltage Condition To troubleshoot an under-voltage condition, check that the correct number of power supplies are installed and their Status light emitting diodes (LEDs) are lit. The following table lists information for SNMP traps and OIDs on the environmental monitoring hardware and hardware components. Table 110. SNMP Traps and OIDs OID String OID Name Description chSysPortXfpRecvPower OID displays the receiving power of the connected optics.
Forwarding processor (FP) ASICs provide Ethernet MAC functions, queueing, and buffering, as well as store feature and forwarding tables for hardware-based lookup and forwarding decisions. 1G and 10G interfaces use different FPs. The following table describes the type and number of ASICs per platform. Table 111. ASICs by Platform Hardware FP CSF S50N, S50V 2 0 S25V, S25P, S25N 1 0 As shown in the following example, you can tune buffers at three locations. 1. CSF — Output queues going from the CSF.
Figure 163. Buffer Tuning Points Deciding to Tune Buffers Dell Networking recommends exercising caution when configuring any non-default buffer settings, as tuning can significantly affect system performance. The default values work for most cases. As a guideline, consider tuning buffers if traffic is bursty (and coming from several interfaces). In this case: • Reduce the dedicated buffer on all queues/interfaces. • Increase the dynamic buffer on all interfaces.
BUFFER PROFILE mode • buffer dedicated Change the maximum number of dynamic buffers an interface can request. BUFFER PROFILE mode • buffer dynamic Change the number of packet-pointers per queue. BUFFER PROFILE mode • buffer packet-pointers Apply the buffer profile to a line card. CONFIGURATION mode • buffer fp-uplink linecard Apply the buffer profile to a CSF to FP link.
The following example shows viewing the default buffer profile. Dell#show buffer-profile detail interface tengigabitethernet 1/1 Interface Te 1/1 Buffer-profile Dynamic buffer 194.88 (Kilobytes) Queue# Dedicated Buffer Buffer Packets (Kilobytes) 0 2.50 256 1 2.50 256 2 2.50 256 3 2.50 256 4 9.38 256 5 9.38 256 6 9.38 256 7 9.38 256 The following example shows viewing the buffer profile allocations.
Using a Pre-Defined Buffer Profile Dell Networking OS provides two pre-defined buffer profiles, one for single-queue (for example, nonquality-of-service [QoS]) applications, and one for four-queue (for example, QoS) applications. You must reload the system for the global buffer profile to take effect, a message similar to the following displays: % Info: For the global pre-defined buffer profile to take effect, please save the config and reload the system..

logging coredump server To undo this command, use the no logging coredump server command. Mini Core Dumps Dell Networking OS supports mini core dumps on the application and kernel crashes. The mini core dump applies to Master, Standby, and Member units. Application and kernel mini core dumps are always enabled. The mini core dumps contain the stack space and some other minimal information that you can use to debug a crash. These files are small files and are written into flash until space is exhausted.
--------------------FREE MEMORY--------------uvmexp.free = 0x2312 Enabling TCP Dumps A TCP dump captures CPU-bound control plane traffic to improve troubleshooting and system manageability. When you enable TCP dump, it captures all the packets on the local CPU, as specified in the CLI. You can save the traffic capture files to flash, FTP, SCP, or TFTP. The files saved on the flash are located in the flash://TCP_DUMP_DIR/Tcpdump_/ directory and labeled tcpdump_*.pcap.
