clear top

Use the clear top command to stop the TopN process.

clear top {all | report_num}
Syntax Description

all

Keyword that stops all nonpending TopN results.

report_num

TopN report number to kill; valid values are 1 to 5.

Default

This command has no default setting.

Command Type

Switch command.

Command Mode

Privileged.

Usage Guidelines

The clear top all command will not kill any pending TopN reports. Only the reports with a done status are killed.

You can terminate TopN processes without the background option (use the show top background command to find out if the background option is used) by pressing Ctrl-C in the same Telnet/console session, or by entering the clear top [report_num] command from a separate Telnet/console session. The prompt is not printed before the TopN report is completely displayed. Other commands will be blocked until the report has been displayed.

Examples

This example shows how to stop the TopN 1 process from a console session:

Console> (enable) clear top 1
10/18/1998,12:05:38:MGMT-5: TopN report 1 killed by Console//.
Console> (enable)
 

This example shows how to stop all nonpending TopN reports:

Console> (enable) clear top all

clear trunk

Use the clear trunk command to restore a trunk port to its default trunk type and mode or to clear specific VLANs from the allowed VLAN list for a trunk port.

clear trunk mod/ports... [vlans]
Syntax Description

mod

Number of the module.

ports...

Number of the ports on the module.

vlans

(Optional) One or more VLANs to remove from the allowed VLAN list for the trunk port; valid values are 2 to 1005.

Default

If you do not specify any VLANs, the mode is set to auto for ISL trunk ports and off for other trunk ports (except ATM LANE trunks, which are always on). For more information about auto and off modes, see the set trunk command.

Command Type

Switch command.

Command Mode

Privileged.

Usage Guidelines

If you specify VLANs, those VLANs are removed from the list of VLANs allowed on the trunk.

Traffic for the removed VLANs are not forwarded over a trunk port.

Default VLANs cannot be cleared on the trunk.

To add VLANs that you have removed, use the set trunk mod_num/port_num vlan_range command.

The Catalyst 2948G is a fixed configuration switch. All ports are located on "module 2;" for this reason, if you enter 1/N for the module/port number, an error message is displayed.

Examples

This example shows how to clear VLANs 200 to 500 from the trunk port on port 2 of module 1:

Console> (enable) clear trunk 1/2 200-500
Removing Vlan(s) 200-500 from allowed list.
Port 1/2 allowed vlans modified to 1-199,501-1000.
Console> (enable)
 

This example shows how to clear the trunk on port 2 of module 1:

Console> (enable) clear trunk 1/2
Port(s) 1/2 trunk mode set to auto.
Port(s) 1/2 trunk type set to isl.
Console> (enable)

clear vlan

Use the clear vlan command to delete an existing VLAN from a management domain.

clear vlan vlan_num
Syntax Description

vlan_num

Number of the VLAN; valid value is 2 to 1000.

Default

This command has no default setting.

Command Type

Switch command.

Command Mode

Privileged.

Usage Guidelines
Caution
When you clear a VLAN, depending on the VTP configuration in the network, it might delete the VLAN from the entire VTP domain, which means every switch in the domain could delete that VLAN.

If the configured switch is a VTP server and all or some of the other switches in the network are VTP clients, the change propagates to all the clients. For example, those clients will remove the VLAN from their configuration. Servers and transparent switches are unaffected; they keep the VLAN even if the VLAN is deleted by another server.

When you clear a VLAN, all ports assigned to that VLAN become inactive. However, the VLAN port assignments are retained until you move the ports to another VLAN. If the cleared VLAN is reactivated, all ports still configured on that VLAN are also reactivated.

Example

This example shows how to clear an existing VLAN (VLAN 4) from a management domain:

Console> (enable) clear vlan 4
This command will de-activate all ports on vlan 4
in the entire management domain
Do you want to continue(y/n) [n]? y
VTP: VLAN 4 deletion successful Console> (enable)

clear vtp pruneeligible

Use the clear vtp pruneeligible command to specify which VLANs in the VTP domain are ineligible for pruning.

clear vtp pruneeligible vlan_num
Syntax Description

vlan_num

Number of VLANs to make pruning ineligible; valid values are 1 to 1005.

Default

By default, VLANs 2 to 1000 are eligible for pruning.

Command Type

Switch command.

Command Mode

Privileged.

Usage Guidelines

VTP pruning causes information about each pruning-eligible VLAN to be removed from VTP updates if no stations belong to that VLAN out a particular switch port. Use the set vtp command to enable VTP pruning.

By default, VLANs 2 to 1000 are pruning eligible. Use the clear vtp pruneeligible command to make VLANs pruning ineligible.

If VLANs are pruning ineligble, use the set vtp pruneeligible command to make the VLANs pruning eligible again.

Example

This example shows how to make VLANs 200 to 500 pruning ineligible:

client-atm-address name

Use the client-atm-address name command to add a LANE address entry to the configuration server's database. The no form of this command removes a client address entry from the table.

client-atm-address atm-address-template name elan-name
no client-atm-address atm-address-template
Syntax Description

atm-address-template

Template that specifies an ATM address explicitly or a specific part of an ATM address and uses wildcard characters for other parts of the ATM address.

Wildcard characters can replace any nibble or group of nibbles in the prefix, the ESI, or the selector fields of the ATM address.

name

Keyword to specify the name of the ELAN.

elan-name

Name of the ELAN. The maximum length of elan-name is 32 characters.

Default

By default, no address and no ELAN name are configured.

Command Type

Cisco IOS ATM command.

Command Mode

Database configuration.

Usage Guidelines

This command is not supported by the Catalyst 4000 and 2948G series switches.

This command binds to the specified ELAN any client whose address matches the specified template. When a client comes up, it consults the LANE configuration server, which responds with the ATM address of the LANE server for the ELAN. The client then initiates join procedures with the LANE server.

You must create the ELAN specified by the elan-name argument using the name server-atm-address command before you use the client-atm-address command.

If an existing entry in the configuration server's database binds the LANE client ATM address to a different ELAN, the new command is rejected.

This command affects only the bindings in the named configuration server database. It has no effect on the LANE components themselves.

A LANE ATM address has the same syntax as an NSAP but is not a network-level address:

LANE ATM address templates can use two types of wildcards: an asterisk (*) to match any single character and an ellipsis (...) to match any number of leading or trailing characters.

In LANE, a prefix template matches the prefix explicitly but uses wildcards for the ESI and selector fields. An ESI template matches the ESI field explicitly but uses wildcards for the prefix and selector.

In our implementation of LANE, the prefix corresponds to the specific subinterface of the interface.

Examples

This example uses an ESI template to specify the part of the ATM address corresponding to an interface. This template allows any client on any subinterface of the interface that corresponds to the displayed ESI value, no matter which switch the router is connected to, to join the engineering ELAN:

ATM(lane-config-database)#client-atm-address ...0800.200c.1001.** name engineering
 

This example uses a prefix template to specify the part of the ATM address corresponding to the switch. This template allows any client on the subinterface of any interface connected to the switch that corresponds to the displayed prefix to join the marketing ELAN:

ATM(lane-config-database)#client-atm-address 47.000014155551212f.00.00... name marketing

configure

Use the configure command to download a configuration file from a host and execute each command in that file.

configure {host} {file}
Syntax Description

host

IP address or IP alias of the host.

file

Name of the configuration file.

Default

This command has no default setting.

Command Type

Switch command.

Command Mode

Privileged.

Usage Guideline

Refer to the Software Configuration Guide for your switch on how to construct a configuration file to download using the configure command.

Examples

The following is a sample file called system5.cfg in the /tftpboot directory:

begin
show time
set ip alias conc7 198.133.219.207
set ip alias montreux 198.133.119.42
set ip alias cres 192.122.174.42
set prompt system5>
set password
# empty string old password
 
pingpong
pingpong
end
#
 

Each line contains a command, except lines that begin with ! or #.

This example shows how to download the system5.cfg configuration file from the 192.122.174.42 host:

Console> (enable) configure 192.122.174.42 system5.cfg
Configure using system5.cfg from 192.122.174.42 (y/n) [n]? y

confreg

Use the confreg command to configure the configuration register utility.

confreg [num]
Syntax Description

num

(Optional) Valid values are 0 = ROM monitor, 1 = the boot helper image, and 2-15 = boot system.

Default

This command has no defaults.

Command Type

ROM monitor command.

Command Mode

Normal.

Usage Guidelines

Executed with the argument num, confreg changes the VCR to match the number specified.

Without the argument, confreg dumps the contents of the VCR and allows you to alter the contents.

You are prompted to change or keep the information held in each bit of the VCR. In either case, the new VCR value is written into NVRAM and does not take effect until you reset or power cycle the platform.

You must issue a sync command to save the change; otherwise, a reset will remove your change.

Example

This example shows how to use the confreg command:

rommon 7 > confreg
