SNA Switching Services

This feature module describes the SNA Switching Services (SNASw) feature and includes the following major sections:

Feature Overview


Note SNA Switching Services functionality supersedes all functionality previously available in the APPN feature in the Cisco IOS software. SNASw configuration will not accept the previous APPN configuration commands. Previous APPN users should use this chapter to configure APPN functionality using the new SNASw commands.

SNASw provides an easier way to design and implement networks with Systems Network Architecture (SNA) routing requirements. Previously, this network design was accomplished using Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking (APPN) with full network node (NN) support in the Cisco router. This type of support provided the SNA routing functionality needed, but was inconsistent with the trends in Enterprise networks today. The corporate intranet is replacing the SNA WAN. Enterprises are replacing their traditional SNA network with an IP infrastructure that supports traffic from a variety of clients, using a variety of protocols, requiring access to applications on a variety of platforms, including SNA applications on Enterprise servers.

While SNA routing is still required when multiple servers must be accessed, the number of nodes required to perform this function is decreasing as the IP infrastructure grows and as the amount of native SNA traffic in the network decreases.

SNASw enables an enterprise to develop their IP infrastructure, while meeting SNA routing requirements.

The number of NNs in the network and the amount of broadcast traffic are reduced. Configuration is simplified, and SNA data traffic can be transported within the IP infrastructure. The following features provide this functionality:

HPR Capable SNA Routing Services

SNASw provides the following SNA routing functions:

Branch Extender

SNASw features use branch network nodes (BrNNs). The Branch Extender (BX) function enhances scalability and reliability of SNA routing nodes by eliminating topology updates and broadcast directory storms that can cause network instability. BX appears as an NN to downstream end node (EN), low-entry networking (LEN) node, and PU 2.0 devices, while also appearing as an EN to upstream devices. The BX function eliminates APPN topology and APPN broadcast search flows between SNASw nodes and the SNA data hosts in the network. This feature is key to providing a reliable turn-key installation because the network administrator no longer needs to develop in-depth knowledge of the level and characteristics of broadcast directory search and topology update traffic in the network. Such knowledge and analysis was commonly required to build successful networks utilizing NN technology without BX.

Figure 1 illustrates the BX functionality.


Figure 1:
BX Functionality

Enterprise Extender (HPR/IP)

SNASw also supports the Enterprise Extender (EX) function. EX offers SNA HPR support directly over IP networks. EX also uses connectionless User Datagram Protocol (UDP) transport. SNA COS and transmission priority are maintained by mapping the transmission priority to the IP precedence and by mapping transmission priority to separate UDP port numbers, allowing the IP network to be configured based on these elements. Cisco's IP prioritization technologies, such as weighted fair queuing (WFQ), prioritize the traffic through the IP network. EX support on the IBM Communications Server for S/390 allows users to build highly reliable SNA routed networks that run natively over an IP infrastructure directly to the Enterprise servers. These network designs reduce points of failure in the network and provide reliable SNA networks.

Figure 2 illustrates the EX functionality.

EX Functionality

Usability Features

SNASw contains the following usability features designed to make SNA networks easier to design and maintain:

Dynamic CP Name Generation Support

When scaling the SNASw function to hundreds or thousands of nodes, many network administrators find that defining a unique control point (CP) name on each node provides unnecessary configuration overhead. Dynamic CP name generation offers the ability to use the Cisco IOS hostname as the SNA CP name or to generate a CP name from an IP address. These facilities reuse one SNASw configuration across many routers and eliminate the specific configuration coordination previously required to configure a unique CP name for each SNA node in the network. However, the ability to explicitly configure each CP name still exists.

Dynamic SNA BTU Size

Most SNA node implementations require specific tuning of the SNA basic transmit unit (BTU) in the configuration. SNASw analyzes the interface maximum transfer units (MTUs) of the interfaces it uses and dynamically assigns the best MTU values for that specific port. For served dependent PU 2.0 devices, SNASw uses the downstream MAXDATA value from the host and dynamically sets the SNA BTU for that device to the MAXDATA value.

DLUR Connect-Out

SNASw can receive connect-out instructions from the IBM Communications Server for S/390. This function allows the system to dynamically connect-out to devices that are configured on the host with the appropriate connect-out definitions. This feature allows connectivity to SNA devices in the network that were traditionally configured for connect-out from the host.


Note DLUR connect-out can be performed over any supported data-link type.

Responsive Mode Adaptive Rate-Based Flow Control

Early HPR implementations failed to perform well in environments subject to packet loss (for example, Frame Relay, IP transport) and performed poorly when combined with other protocols in multiprotocol networks. SNASw implements the second-generation HPR flow control architecture, called Responsive Mode Adaptive Rate-Based (ARB) architecture. Responsive Mode ARB addresses all the drawbacks of the earlier ARB implementation, providing faster ramp-up, better tolerance of lost frames, and better tolerance of multiprotocol traffic.

User-Settable Port Limits

SNASw offers full control over the number of devices supported by a specific node. The max-links configuration on the SNASw port controls the number of devices that are served by this node. When the max-links limit is reached, SNASw no longer responds to explorers attempting to establish new connections. SNASw allows load sharing among different SNASw nodes that offer service to the same SNA MAC addresses.

Management Enhancements

SNASw contains the following enhanced tools for managing SNA networks:

Console Message Archiving

Messages issued by SNASw are archived in a buffer log that is queried and searched on the console or transferred to a file server for analysis. Each message has a single line that identifies the nature of the event that occurred. The buffer log also maintains more detailed information about the message issued.

Data-Link Tracing

SNA frames entering or leaving SNASw are traced to the console or to a cyclic buffer. These frames are analyzed at the router or transferred to a file server for analysis. The trace is sent to a file server in a SNA-formatted text file or in binary format readable by existing traffic analysis applications. SNASw also captures record frames natively, eliminating the need for network analyzers to capture network events for analysis.

Interprocess Signal Tracing

The SNASw internal information is traced in binary form, offering valuable detailed internal information to Cisco support personnel. This information helps diagnose suspected defects in SNASw.

Trap MIB Support for Advanced Network Management Awareness

SNASw supports the APPN Trap MIB, which proactively sends traps with information about changes in SNA resource status. This implementation reduces the frequency of SNMP polling necessary to manage SNA devices in the network.

LAN and IP-Focused Connection Types

SNASw supports several connection types to serve all SNA connectivity options, including the following types:

Token Ring, Ethernet, and FDDI

SNASw natively supports connectivity to Token Ring, Ethernet, and FDDI networks. In this configuration mode, the MAC address used by SNASw is the local configured or default MAC address of the interface.

Virtual Token Ring

Using virtual Token Ring allows SNASw access to source-route bridging (SRB), which allows the following configuration:

Attachment to Local LANs

Virtual Token Ring allows you to connect to local LAN media through SRB technology. Because there is no limit to the number of virtual Token Ring interfaces that can connect to a specific LAN, this technology allows configuration of multiple MAC addresses, which respond to SNA requests over the same LAN. When using native LAN support, SNASw responds only to requests that target the MAC address configured on the local interface. Virtual Token Ring and SRB allow SNASw to respond to multiple MAC addresses over the same physical interface.

Connection to Frame Relay Transport Technologies

Virtual Token Ring and SRB connect SNASw to a SNA Frame Relay infrastructure. FRAS host and SRB Frame Relay are configured to connect virtual Token Ring interfaces that offer SNASw support for Frame Relay boundary access node (BAN) or boundary network node (BNN) technology.

Connection to Channel Interface Processor and Channel Port Adapter

Virtual Token Ring and SRB can be used to connect SNASw to the Channel Interface Processor (CIP) or Channel Port Adapter (CPA) in routers that support those interfaces.

Virtual Data-Link Control

SNASw uses Virtual Data-Link Control (VDLC) to connect to DLSw+ transport and local switching technologies. VDLC is used for a number of connectivity options, including the following two:

Transport over DLSw+ Supported Media

Using VDLC, SNASw gains full access to the DLSw+ transport facilities, including DLSw+ transport over IP networks, DLSw+ transport over direct interfaces, and DLSw+ support of direct Frame Relay encapsulation (without using IP).

DLC Switching Support for Access to SDLC and QLLC

Through VDLC, SNASw gains access to devices connecting through SDLC and QLLC. This access allows devices connecting through SDLC and QLLC access to SNASw.

Native IP Data-Link Control (HPR/IP)

SNASw support for the EX function provides direct HPR over UDP connectivity. This support is configured for any interface that has a configured IP address. HPR/IP uses the interface IP address as the source address for IP traffic originating from this node.

Benefits

Scalable APPN Networks

With the BX function, the number of network nodes and the amount of broadcast traffic are reduced.

IP Infrastructure Support

Limiting SNASw routers to the data center and using the BX function eliminates SNA broadcasts from the IP network. With EX, SNA traffic is routed using the IP routing infrastructure while maintaining end-to-end SNA services.

Reduced Configuration Requirements

By eliminating NNs and using the BX function, configuration tasks are minimized. Additionally, Cisco has enhanced its auto-configuration capability to eliminate previously required commands.

Network Design Simplicity

By placing all SNA routers in the data center, few SNA routers are required, and they can be easily configured using virtually identical configurations.

Improved Availability

By adding Cisco-unique capabilities to connect-out and distribute traffic across multiple ports, access to resources is improved and traffic can be distributed across multiple ports. Additionally, by supporting the newest HPR ARB flow control algorithm, bandwidth management for SNA traffic is improved.

Increased Management Capabilities

Two new traces, interprocess and data-link, provide an easier way to view SNASw activity. The APPN Trap MIB allows the user to notify the operator in event of a debilitating problem. Console message archiving provides better tracking of network activity. The ability to format traces in a format so that they are readable by other management products simplify network management because results are more readily available.

Architectural Compliance

Even though SNASw is easier to use and SNASw networks are easier to design, SNASw interfaces with APPN implementations on the market: ENs, NNs, and LEN nodes. It also provides full DLUR support to allow older resources to take advantage of the APPN architecture.

Configuration Tasks

To configure SNASw in your network, perform the tasks discussed in the following sections. Because of the hierarchical nature of SNASw definitions, configure SNASw in the order specified. Definition of an SNASw cpname and at least one SNASw port are required. The other tasks are optional. Depending on your network, they may need to be configured.

Defining a SNASw Control Point Name

A SNASw CP definition is required to use SNASw. This definition adds the fully qualified CP name for the node. The fully qualified CP name for the node is a combination of a network identifier and a CP name. The network identifier is typically configured to match the identifier configured in the SNA hosts in the network. The CP name identifies this node uniquely within the particular subnetwork.

To define a SNASw CP name, use the following command in global configuration mode:
Command Purpose
Router#snasw cpname netid.cpname 
[hostname] 
[ip-address interface-name]

Defines an SNASw CP name.

 


Note Configuring a CP name activates SNASw. Conversely, removing a CP name definition deactivates it.

Configuring a DLUS

If you plan to use DLUR to provide services for dependent LUs connected to this SNASw node, you must configure at least one primary DLUS. In addition, you can configure node-wide defaults for the DLUS and backup DLUS that this node contacts.

To specify DLUR or DLUS services for this CP name, use the following command in SNASw control point configuration mode:
Command Purpose
Router#snasw dlus primary-dlus-name 
[backup backup-dlus-name] [prefer-active] [retry interval 
count]

Specifies the parameters related to DLUR/DLUS functionality.

   

Configuring DLC Support

There are several ways that SNASw enables connectivity over different interface types. In the simplest cases, using automatically configured real LAN interfaces enables default interface definitions. SNASw is also capable of connecting to virtual interfaces that are not preconfigured on the router.

Virtual Token Ring interfaces are useful for connections to a CIP/CPA in the same router and for connectivity to Frame Relay transport solutions via SRB. Multiple virtual Token Ring interfaces allow SNASw to respond to multiple MAC addresses through the same real router LAN interface. Use the following commands to configure a virtual interface:
Step Command Purpose

1 . 

Router#interface Virtual-TokenRing number

Configures a virtual Token Ring interface to connect to an SRB infrastructure.

2 . 

Router#source-bridge vring bridge 
ring-group

Associates a virtual Token Ring interface with a source-route bridge group.

3 . 

Router#source-bridge spanning

Indicates this interface should respond to spanning-tree explorers.

4 . 

Router#mac-address mac-address

Configures a MAC address on a real or virtual LAN interface.

Defining a SNASw Port

A SNASw port definition associates SNA capabilities with a specific interface that SNASw will use. Each interface that is used for SNASw communications requires an SNASw port definition statement.


Note SNASw ports do not dynamically adjust to interface configuration changes that are made when SNASw is active. For example, if you change an interface MAC address or MTU, SNASw may not recognize the new value. If you want to make changes to an interface and want SNA Switch to adjust to the new interface changes, you may need to either delete and redefine the port that is using that interface or stop and restart SNASw.

A port may also be associated with the VDLC or HPR/IP features. The VDLC feature enables SNASw to send and receive traffic to other Cisco IOS software features such as DLSw+. If a port is associated with a VDLC interface, that port does not take an interface name as generally required by the snasw port command.

The HPR/IP feature establishes SNASw links over IP networks. If a port is associated with an HPR/IP interface, then you must configure HPR/IP first, followed by the interface name.

To associate a port with a specific interface, use the following command in global configuration mode:
Command Purpose
Router#snasw port portname [hpr-ip | vdlc 
vring mac mac-address] [interfacename] [conntype nohpr | len | 
dyncplen] [dlus-required] [hpr-sap hpr-sap-value] [max-links 
link-limit-value] [sap sap-value] [vnname virtual-node-name] 
[nostart]

Specifies the DLCs used by SNASw.


Note The interface must be defined before the ports that use them are defined and activated.
Warning
Changing active SNASw interfaces might interrupt SNASw connections.

Defining a SNASw Link

In many cases, if the partner node is initiating the connection, a link definition is not necessary. A link definition is built dynamically when the partner node initiates the connection. Links typically need to be defined for upstream connectivity. Downstream devices initiate connectivity into SNASw; therefore, a link definition is not necessary to downstream devices.

In SNASw link configuration, you must associate the link with the SNASw port that it will use. For all traditional links, the snasw link command must be associated with a remote MAC address. The MAC address identifies the partner address to which SNASw attempts to establish a link. For all HPR/IP links, the command is associated with a remote IP address. The IP address identifies the partner address to which SNASw attempts to establish a link.

To define a SNASw logical link, use the following command in global configuration mode:
Command Purpose
Router#snasw link linkname port portname [rmac mac-address | 
ip-dest ip-address] [rsap sap-value] [nns] [tgp [high | low | 
medium]] [nostart]

Defines a SNASw logical link.

Defining a SNASw Partner LU Location

The SNASw directory stores names of resources and their owners. Usually this information is learned dynamically using Locate searches. You might wish to manually define the location of specific resources. SNASw is known for its dynamic capabilities, not its need for system definition. For this reason, and for easier management, define location names only when necessary.

When a LEN node is attached to a SNASw node, all destination resources that reside on the LEN node must be defined to SNASw if the resource is to be the target of a session request. This definition enables the LEN node resources to be reached through SNASw.

To define a resource location, use the following command in global configuration mode:
Command Purpose
Router#snasw location resource-name 
owning-cp cpname

Configures the location of a resource.


Note You must configure an owning CP for each partner LU configured. The owning CP is the CP name for the LEN node, EN, or NN on which the resource resides.  

Starting SNASw and SNASw Ports and Links

SNASw starts automatically when a CP name is configured. SNASw ports and links are also automatically started once they are configured. If stopped, they can be restarted using one of the following privileged EXEC commands:
Command Purpose
Router#snasw start

Starts SNASw.

Router#snasw start link linkname

Activates the specified SNASw link.

Router#snasw start port portname

Activates the specified SNASw port.

Stopping SNASw and SNASw Ports and Links

Unless otherwise defined with the nostart operand, SNASw and SNASw port and link definitions are started automatically when SNASw starts. To stop SNASw or to stop SNASw ports and links when making configuration changes or when resetting the ports or links, use one of the following commands in privileged EXEC mode:
Command Purpose
Router#snasw stop

Deactivates SNASw.

Router#snasw stop link linkname

Deactivates the specified SNASw link.

Router#snasw stop port portname

Deactivates the specified SNASw port.


Note Removing a CP name definition stops SNASw.

Verifying SNASw

To verify that you have SNA connectivity between the router and each host system, enter the
ping sna command, specifying the mode and the link name:

ping sna -m IBMRDB STARW.BUDDHA

Command Reference

This section documents the new commands that configure the SNASw feature.

In Cisco IOS Release 12.0(1)T or later, you can search and filter the output for show and more commands. This functionality is useful when you need to sort through large amounts of output, or if you want to exclude output that you do not need to see.

To use this functionality, enter a show or more command followed by the "pipe" character (|), one of the keywords begin, include, or exclude, and an expression that you want to search or filter on:

command | {begin | include | exclude} regular-expression

Following is an example of the show atm vc command in which you want the command output to begin with the first line where the expression "PeakRate" appears:

show atm vc | begin PeakRate

For more information on the search and filter functionality, refer to the Cisco IOS Release 12.0(1)T feature module titled CLI String Search.

Use the snasw pdlog command to customize the type of information you prefer to see on the router console from the SNASw feature.

Examples

The following is an example of how to configure the snasw pdlog command:

snasw pdlog exception buffer-size 200 file tftp://my host/files/trace.pdlog

Related Commands

Command Description

show snasw pdlog

Displays entries in the cyclical problem determination log to the console.

snasw dump

Dumps trace and problem determination logs to a file server.

snasw port

To specify the DLCs used by SNASw, use the snasw port global configuration command. Use the no form of this command to delete a previously configured port.

snasw port portname [hpr-ip | vdlc ring-group mac mac-address] interfacename
[conntype | nohpr | len | dyncplen] [dlus-required] [hpr-sap hpr-sap-value]
[max-links link-limit-value] [sap sap-value] [vnname virtual-node-name] [nns] [nostart]
no snasw port portname

Syntax Description

portname

Indicates the one- to eight-character name for the port. This argument is used to refer to this port in informational messages and the show snasw port command.

hpr-ip

Indicates that the port is HPR/IP.

vdlc ring-group

Indicates that the port is VDLC. No interfacename is required. The ring-group indicates the source-bridge ring-group of which this VDLC port is a member.

mac mac-address

Indicates that the virtual source MAC address used for the VDLC port.

interfacename

Indicates the name of the interface over which the port will communicate. Allowable interfaces include Token Ring, Ethernet, VLAN, or loopback.

conntype | nohpr | len | dyncplen

The keyword conntype indicates the connection type for the port. Conntype can be set to one of three values: nohpr, len, or dyncplen. If not configured, HPR-capable links are established. The keyword nohpr indicates that the HPR is not supported but APPN connections with CP-CP sessions are permitted. The keyword len indicates that APPN connections are not allowed; only LEN node-level connectivity is negotiated. The keyword dyclen (similar to LEN node in functionality) also replaces the cpname. This option is specifically intended for users with XID3-capable devices that send cpnames, but whose cpnames configured on these devices have not been configured uniquely across the devices. Therefore, a default cpname must be generated to have a properly functioning APPN connection management and directory function

hpr-sap hpr-sap-value

Indicates the local HPR-SAP value.

max-links max-links-value

(Optional) Indicates the number of links permitted on this port. When this link limit is reached, the port will not respond to inbound connection requests from stations attempting to connect to this port. Outbound connections are still permitted.

sap sap-value

(Optional) Indicates the local SAP value.

vnname virt-node-name

(Optional) Indicates the network qualified virtual node name
(3 to 17 characters) of the connection network being defined.

nns-required

(Optional) Indicates active CP-CP sessions to a NNS.

nostart

(Optional) Indicates that the port will not open automatically when defined.

Defaults

No default behaviors or values.

Command History

Release Modification

12.0(5)XN

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

More than one port can be configured (with different port names). A configured port cannot be redefined without first deleting the port using the no form of the port command.


Note SNASw ports do not dynamically adjust to interface configuration changes that are made when SNASw is active. For example, if you change an interface MAC address or MTU, SNASw may not recognize the new value. If you want to make changes to an interface and want SNA Switch to adjust to the new interface changes, you may need to either delete and redefine the port that is using that interface or stop and restart SNASw.

Examples

The following are examples of how to configure the snasw port command:

snasw port SRBG Virtual-TokenRing0 conntype nohpr
snasw port UPSTREAM TokenRing1/1
snasw port dlswport vdlc 30 mac 4000.33333.4444 
snasw port HPRIP hpr-ip Loopback0 
snasw port TRVLAN Vlan1/1 vnname NETA.CONNET

Command History

Release Modification

12.0(5)XN

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The functionality is necessary because it is possible for CP-CP sessions to fail permanently or temporarily, but beyond the timeframe for automatic CP-CP session retry. If the current state of the node mandates that CP-CP sessions cannot be started to the partner (for example, CP-CP sessions already exist on a different upstream link) or no active adjacent CP matches the cpname named, the command fails.

Examples

The following is an example of the snasw start cp-cp command:

snasw start cp-cp NETA.CMCHOST

Related Commands

Command Description

snasw stop cp-cp

Terminates CP-CP sessions with a partner CP.

Error Message   

%SNASW-3-APPN_LOG_1: PROBLEM - %lu - SNA Switch could not allocate necessary storage

Explanation   SNA Switching Services could not allocate necessary storage. Some operations fails. See other logs or verbs.

Recommended Action   Decrease the system load (for example, by reducing the number of active sessions) or make more storage available to the SNA Switch.

Error Message   

%SNASW-4-APPN_LOG_2: EXCEPTION - %lu - SNA Switch cryptography call failed, possibly due to missing password

Explanation   A call from SNA Switching Services to perform a cryptographic operation failed. Session activation fails, an active session will end abnormally with the given sense code, or some other action fails. More information may appear in subsequent logs.

Recommended Action   Check the logs following this error message for evidence of failed session activation. If failure is evident, check MODE, LS, or INTERNAL PU definitions for cryptographic support. Check that any passwords necessary have been defined. If this problem occurs intermittently or with sessions already active with the same PLU, then SLU and mode make more storage available to SNA Switching Services.

Error Message   

%SNASW-3-ASM_LOG_0: PROBLEM - %lu - Received BIND request directed at this node with unrecognized secondary LU name

Explanation   Received a BIND request directed at this node (that is, either without an RSCV or at the last hop on the RSCV) with an unrecognized secondary LU name. This message usually indicates a configuration error at the primary LU. Session activation fails with the specified sense code.

Recommended Action   Correct the primary LU configuration.

Error Message   

%SNASW-3-ASM_LOG_11: PROBLEM - %lu - Received BIND request with badly formed secondary LU name

Explanation   Received a BIND request with badly formed secondary LU name. This message might indicate an interoperability problem. Session activation fails with the specified sense code.

Explanation   The local node received an HPR Route Setup RU request that it cannot forward because the next hop in the route is not HPR-capable. The local node supports RTP and acts as the destination. The Route Setup request is between the origin node and the local node (the new destination). RTP Connections are activated between these two nodes. This event is normal when the local node has an automatically activated link to a node that does not support RTP. Sessions that originate at (or beyond) the origin node use HPR from the origin to the new destination and use ISR from the new destination and beyond.

Recommended Action   None.

Error Message   

%SNASW-4-HPR_LOG_11: EXCEPTION - %lu - The local node is acting as the new destination for a backed-out Route Setup

Explanation   The local node received an HPR Route Setup Reply request that contains the backout sense code and acts as the new destination for the Route Setup. The Route Setup request successfully backed out. The Route Setup request is between the origin node and the local node (the new destination). RTP Connections are activated between these two nodes. This event is normal when a node in the route has an automatically activated link to a node that does not support RTP or HPR. Sessions that originate at (or beyond) the origin node use HPR from the origin node to the new destination and use ISR from the new destination and beyond.

Recommended Action   None.

Error Message   

%SNASW-4-HPR_LOG_12: EXCEPTION - %lu - A Route Setup was backed out from the original destination to the new destination

Explanation   The local node has received an HPR Route Setup Reply request in which the destination node is not the same as the destination node that was in the corresponding Route Setup Request. The Route Setup request successfully backed out. The Route Setup request is between the origin node and the new destination. RTP Connections are activated between these two nodes. This event is normal when a node in the route has an automatically activated link to a node that does not support RTP or HPR. Sessions that originate at (or beyond) the local node use HPR from the local node to the new destination and use ISR from new destination and beyond.

Recommended Action   None.

Error Message   

%SNASW-4-HPR_LOG_13: EXCEPTION - %lu - A Route Setup Reply has been received with the backout sense code HPR will not be used for this session

Explanation   The local node received an HPR Route Setup Reply request with the backout sense code. The Route Setup request failed because the destination node does not support RTP. No intermediate node supports RTP and was able to become the new destination. The Route Setup request failed and HPR is not used for the session that is activated. This event is normal when a node in the route has an automatically activated link to a node that does not support RTP or HPR.

Recommended Action   None.

Error Message   

%SNASW-4-HPR_LOG_14: EXCEPTION - %lu - Local node is the destination of a HPR Route Setup RU but does not support RTP so is replying with the backout sense code

Explanation   The local node received an HPR Route Setup RU request as the destination node, but cannot accept it because it does not support RTP. The local node replies with the backout sense code. The Route Setup request between the origin node and this node fails. RTP Connections are not activated between these two nodes. This event is ] normal when another HPR-capable node has an automatically activated link to this node. It may be possible for an intermediate node in the route that supports RTP to take over the role of the destination node for the Route Setup request. If this happens sessions that originate at (or beyond) the origin node use HPR from the origin to the new destination and use ISR from the new destination to the local node and beyond. If no intermediate node acts as the destination, then HPR is not used at all by such sessions.

Recommended Action   None.

%SNASW-4-HPR_LOG_9: EXCEPTION - %lu - Local node has received a HPR Route Setup RU that it cannot forward because the next hop is not HPR-capable so is replying with the backout sense code

Explanation   The local node received an HPR Route Setup RU request that it cannot forward because the next hop in the route is not HPR-capable. The local node does not support RTP so it cannot act as the destination node and replies with the backout sense code. The Route Setup request between the origin node and the destination fails. RTP Connections cannot be activated between these two nodes. This event is normal when the local node has an automatically activated link to a node that does not support HPR. It may be possible for an intermediate node in the route that supports RTP to take over the role of the destination node for the Route Setup request. If error occurs, then sessions that originate at (or beyond) the origin node use HPR from the origin to the new destination and use ISR from the new destination to the local node (and beyond). If no intermediate node is able to act as the destination, then HPR is not used by these sessions.

Recommended Action   None.
