Switch Operating Procedures

Switch Operating Procedures

This chapter describes procedures you can use to manage the MGX 8850 switch.

Managing the Configuration Files

The following sections describe how to save a switch configuration in a single zipped file, clear or erase a configuration, and restore a configuration from a file.

Saving a Configuration

After configuring your switch or after making configuration updates, it is wise to save the configuration. Restoring a saved configuration is much easier than reentering all the commands used to configure the switch.

To save a configuration, you use the saveallcnf command, which saves the configuration to a file in the C:/CNF directory. The file is named using the switch name and the current date as follows:

Name_01_DateTime.zip.

The date appears in YYYYMMDD (year, month, day) format, and the time appears in HHMM (hour, minute) format. For example, if the configuration for a switch named "mgx8850a" were saved on February 29th, 2000 at 2:31pm, the file would be named C:/CNF/mgx8850a_01_200002291431.zip.

You can save a configuration if both of the following are true:


Caution Make sure that no other users are making configuration changes when you save the configuration. The MGX 8850 switch does not check for other CLI or CWM users before saving a configuration. If other users make changes while the file is being saved, the configuration can become corrupt. If you try to restore the configuration from a corrupt file, the switch can fail and you might have to send switch cards back to the factory for re-programming.

To save a switch configuration, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with SERVICE_GP privileges or higher.

Step 2   To save the configuration, enter the saveallcnf command:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > saveallcnf
 

Step 3   Read the prompt that appears. Press Y if you want to continue, and press Enter.

When the save is complete, the switch prompt reappears, and the new file is stored in the C:/CNF directory. The switch displays the saved filename as shown below:

pop20one.7.PXM.a > saveallcnf
 
The 'saveallcnf' command can be time-consuming. The shelf
must not provision new circuits while this command is running.
 
Do not run this command unless the shelf configuration is stable
or you risk corrupting the saved configuration file.
 
Do you want to proceed (Yes/No)? y
 
 
saveallcnf: shelf configuration saved in C:/CNF/pop20one_01_200006151550.zip.
 

Note   Cisco Systems recommends that you use an FTP client to copy the saved configuration file to a workstation. This ensures that you have a backup copy if the PXM45 Hard Drive card fails.


Clearing a Configuration

To clear the current configuration, use the clrallcnf command. This command clears all the provisioning data and most of the general switch configuration parameters such as the switch name and the PNNI controller configuration. The clrallcnf command does not clear IP addresses that have been configured for switch management.

Restoring a Saved Configuration

You can restore a configuration if all of the following are true:


Caution Make sure that no other users are making configuration changes when you restore the configuration. The MGX 8850 switch does not check for other CLI or CWM users before restoring a configuration. If other users make changes while the file is being restored, the configuration can become corrupt, the switch can fail, and you might have to send switch cards back to the factory for re-programming.

To restore a saved switch configuration, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with SERVICE_GP privileges or higher.

Step 2   Verify that the file from which you want to restore configuration data is located in the C:/CNF directory.


Note   The C:/CNF directory is the only location from which you can restore a configuration file. If the file has been moved to another directory or stored on another system, the file must be returned to this directory before the data can be restored.


Tips Use the cd command to navigate the C:/CNF directory, and use the ll command to display the directory contents. For information on transferring files to and from the switch, refer to "Downloading and Installing Firmware Upgrades."

Step 3   To restore a saved configuration file, enter the restoreallcnf command:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > restoreallcnf -f filename
 

Caution The restoreallcnf command resets all cards in the switch and terminates all calls passing through the switch.

Replace filename with the name of the saved configuration file.You do not have to enter the path to the file or the extension. For information on the location and name of the file, see "Saving a Configuration."


Managing ILMI

The following sections describe how to:

Enabling and Disabling ILMI on a Port

The MGX 8850 switch provides several commands that you can use to enable or disable ILMI on a port. For instructions on enabling or disabling ILMI from an AXSM card prompt, refer to "Configuring ILMI on a Port," in "Provisioning." To enable or disable ILMI from the PXM45 prompt, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1 privileges or higher.

Step 2   To display a list of ports and view the current ILMI status of each, enter the dsppnports command.

To enable or disable ILMI on a port, enter the cnfilmienable command as follows:

popeye2.1.7pxm.a>cnfilmienable <portid> <no | yes>
 

Replace portid using the format slot:bay.line:ifNum. Table 6-1 describes these parameters.

Enter yes to enable ILMI on the port, or enter no to disable ILMI.


Table 6-1: Port Identification Parameters
Parameter Description

slot

Enter the slot number for the card that hosts the port you are configuring.

bay

Replace bay with 1 if the line is connected to a back card in the upper bay, or replace it with 2 if the line is connected to a back card in the lower bay. Remember that the bay number is always 1 for an AXSM-1-2488.

line

Replace line with the number that corresponds to the back card port to which the line is connected.

ifNum

An ATM port is also called an interface. Enter a number from 1 to 60 to identify this interface. The interface number must be unique on the card to which it is assigned. Interface numbers are assigned with the addport command.

Step 3   To verify the ILMI status change, reenter the dsppnports command.


Displaying the ILMI Port Configuration

The following procedure describes some commands you can use to view the ILMI port configuration.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with access privileges at any level.

Step 2   To display the ILMI configuration for all ports on an AXSM card, enter the dspilmis command. The following example shows the dspilmis command report:

pop20two.1.AXSM.a > dspilmis
 
    Sig. rsrc  Ilmi  Sig  Sig Ilmi  S:Keepalive T:conPoll K:conPoll   
    Port Part State  Vpi  Vci Trap  Interval    Interval  InactiveFactor
    ---- ----  ---- ---- ---- --- ------------  ---------- ----------
    1    1   Off     0    16    On          1          5          4 
    2    1   Off     0    16    On          1          5          4 
    3    1   Off     0    16    On          1          5          4 
    4    1   Off     0    16    On          1          5          4 
 

The example above shows that all ports are configured for the default ILMI values and that ILMI has not been started on any port.

Step 3   To display the ILMI configuration for a single port, enter the dspilmi command as follows:

pop20one.10.AXSM.a > dspilmi <ifnum> <partitionId>
 

Replace ifnum with the interface number of the port, and replace partitionID with the partition number assigned to the port. You can view both of these numbers in the dspilmis command report. The following is an example report for the dspilmi command.

pop20one.10.AXSM.a > dspilmi 1 1
 
    Sig. rsrc  Ilmi  Sig  Sig Ilmi  S:Keepalive T:conPoll K:conPoll   
    Port Part State  Vpi  Vci Trap  Interval    Interval  InactiveFactor
    ---- ----  ---- ---- ---- --- ------------  ---------- ----------
    1    1    On     0    16    On          1          5          4 
 

Step 4   To display a different ILMI port configuration report, use the dsppnilmi command at the PXM45 prompt as follows:

pop20one.7.PXM.a > dsppnilmi <portid>
 

Replace portid using the format slot:bay.line:ifNum. Table 6-1 describes these parameters. The following example shows the format of the dsppnilmi command report.

pop20one.7.PXM.a > dsppnilmi 10:1.1:1
 
Port:  10:1.1:1            Port Type:  PNNI             Side:  network  
Autoconfig:  disable      UCSM: disable   
Secure Link Protocol:  enable    
Change of Attachment Point Procedures:  enable    
Modification of Local Attributes Standard Procedure:  enable    
Addressreg:  Permit All                          
VPI:       0                VCI:      16
Max Prefix:      16      Total Prefix:       0
Max Address:      64     Total Address:      0
Resync State:      0     Node Prefix: yes       
Peer Port Id:    16848897   System_Id : 0.80.84.171.226.192 
Peer Addressreg:  enable    
Peer Ip Address : 0.0.0.0 
Peer Interface Name : atmVirtual.01.1.1.01 
ILMI Link State : UpAndNormal              
ILMI Version : ilmi40
 
INFO:  No Prefix registered
 

Displaying and Clearing ILMI Management Statistics

The following procedure describes some commands you can use to view ILMI management statistics.


Step 1   To display ILMI management statistics for a port, enter the dspilmicnt command as follows:

pop20one.10.AXSM.a > dspilmicnt <ifnum> <partitionId>
 

Replace ifnum with the interface number of the port, and replace partitionID with the partition number assigned to the port. You can view both of these numbers in the dspilmis command report. The following is an example report for the dspilmicnt command.

pop20one.10.AXSM.a > dspilmicnt 1 1
If Number                : 1 
Partition Id             : 1 
SNMP Pdu Received        : 36914 
GetRequest Received      : 18467 
GetNext Request Received : 0 
SetRequest Received      : 0 
Trap Received            : 1 
GetResponse Received     : 18446 
GetResponse Transmitted  : 18467 
GetRequest Transmitted   : 18446 
Trap Transmitted         : 4 
Unknown Type Received    : 0 
ASN1 Pdu Parse Error     : 0 
No Such Name Error       : 0 
Pdu Too Big Error        : 0 
 

Step 2   To clear the ILMI management statistics for a port, enter the clrilmicnt command as follows:

pop20one.10.AXSM.a > clrilmicnt <ifnum> <partitionId>
 

Replace ifnum with the interface number of the port, and replace partitionID with the partition number assigned to the port. The following example shows the switch response to this command.

pop20one.10.AXSM.a > clrilmicnt 1 1
ilmi stats for ifNum 1, partId 1 cleared
 

Step 3   To verify that the statistics have been cleared, re-enter the dspilmicnt command.


Deleting ILMI Prefixes

The procedure for adding ILMI prefixes is described in "Configuring ILMI Dynamic Addressing" in "Provisioning." The following procedure describes how to delete an ILMI address prefix from a port.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1 privileges or higher.

Step 2   To view the ILMI prefixes assigned to a port, enter the dspprfx command as follows:

pop20one.7.PXM.a > dspprfx <portid>
 

Replace portid with the port address using the format slot:bay.line:ifnum. These parameters are described in Table 6-1. For example:

pop20one.7.PXM.a > dspprfx 10:2.2:4
 
INFO:  No Prefix registered
 

In the example above, no ILMI prefixes have been assigned to the port, so the port will use the prefix configured for the SPVC prefix.

Step 3   To prepare for deleting an ILMI prefix, down the port to be configured with the dnpnport command. For example:

pop20one.7.PXM.a > dnpnport 10:2.2:4
 

Step 4   Use the following command to delete an ATM prefix for a port:

popeye2.7.PXM.a > delprfx <portid> atm-prefix
 

Replace portid using the format slot:bay.line:ifNum. Table 6-1 describes these parameters.

Replace atm-prefix with the 13-byte ATM address prefix in use.

Step 5   Up the port you configured with the uppnport command. For example:

pop20one.7.PXM.a > uppnport 10:2.2:4
 

Step 6   To verify the proper ATM prefix configuration for a port, re-enter the dspprfx command.


Determining the Firmware Version Number from Filenames

The following version management commands require a version number to be entered in a specific format:

In most cases, you will find the correct firmware version numbers in the Release Notes for the Cisco MGX 8850, Release 2. If the release notes are not available, you can use the firmware filename to determine the version number as described below.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session at any access level.

Step 2   To view the files on the switch hard drive, you can enter UNIX-like commands at the switch prompt. To change directories to the firmware directory (FW), enter the cd command as follows:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > cd C:/FW
 

Note   Remember that UNIX directory and filenames are case sensitive.

Step 3   To list the contents of the directory, enter the ll command:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > ll
 

The display shows:

pop20one.7.PXM.a > ll
  size          date       time       name
--------       ------     ------    --------
     512    APR-19-2000  01:24:16   .                 <DIR>

In the file system : 
    total space :  819200 K bytes
    free  space :  786279 K bytes
 

Figure 6-1 shows the information contained in filenames for released firmware.


Figure 6-1: Filename Format for Released Firmware


Filenames that include "_mgx" are for runtime PXM45 firmware, and filenames that include "_bt" are for boot firmware. AXSM runtime firmware images do not have an image description after the version number. When you first receive the switch from Cisco, there will be single versions of each file. If you download updates to any files, there will be multiple versions of those files.

Figure 6-2 shows the information contained in filenames for prereleased firmware. If you are evaluating nonreleased firmware, the filename format shows that the firmware is pre-released and indicates the development level of the prerelease firmware.


Figure 6-2: Filename Format for Prereleased Firmware


Step 4   Translate the filenames to version numbers, and write the numbers down so you can set the revision levels for the software.

Write the version number down in the format required by the revision management commands. The following example shows the required format. If you are logged in as a user with SERVICE_GP access privileges, you can display this example by entering any of the revision management commands without parameters.

pop20one.7.PXM.a > runrev
ERR: Syntax: runrev <slot> <revision> 
           revision - revision number. E.g.,
                      2.0(1)
                      2.0(1.248)
                      2.0(0)B1 or 2.0(0)B2
                      2.0(0)A1 or 2.0(0)A2
                      2.0(0)I1 or 2.0(0)I2
                      2.0(0)D
 

The first example above, 2.0(1), is for released firmware version 2.0, maintenance release 1. The second example, 2.0(1.248), is for patch 248 to version 2.0, maintenance release 1. The other examples are for prerelease firmware. Prerelease firmware does not include patches; the maintenance release number is increased for each software change.

Table 6-2 shows some example filenames and the correct version numbers to use with the revision management commands.

Managing Redundant Cards

The MGX 8850 switch supports redundancy between two cards of the same type. For PXM45 cards, this redundancy is preconfigured on the switch. To establish redundancy between two AXSM cards, you can use the addred command as described in "Establishing Redundancy Between Two AXSM Cards," in "Preparing AXSM Cards and Lines for Communication."

The following sections describe how to

Displaying Redundancy Status

To display the redundancy configuration for the switch, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session at any access level.

Step 2   To view the redundancy status, enter the following command:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > dspred
 

After you enter the command, the switch displays a report similar to the following:

pop2one.7.PXM.a > dspred
pop2one                          System Rev: 02.00   Feb. 23, 2000 10:59:10 PST

  7      PXM45     Active      8        PXM45      Empty Resvd  1-1           
 

Switching Between Redundant PXM Cards

To switch operation from one redundant PXM card to another, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with SUPER_GP privileges or higher.

Step 2   Check the status of the active and standby cards by entering the dspcds command.

The dspcds command should list one card as active and one card as standby. If the cards are not in their proper states, the switchover cannot take place.

Step 3   To switch cards, enter the following command after the switch prompt:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > switchcc
 

Switching Between Redundant AXSM Cards

To switch operation from an active redundant AXSM card to the standby card, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with SERVICE_GP privileges or higher.

Step 2   Check the status of the active and standby cards by entering the dspcds command.

The dspcds command should list one card as active and one card as standby. If the cards are not in their proper states, the switchover cannot take place.

Step 3   To switch cards, enter the following command after the switch prompt:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > switchredcd <fromSlot> <toSlot>
 

Replace fromSlot with the card number of the active card, and replace toSlot with the card number to which you want to switch control.


Removing Redundancy between Two Cards

To remove the redundant relationship between two AXSM cards, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1_GP privileges or higher.

Step 2   To remove card redundancy, enter the following command after the switch prompt:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > delred <primarySlot>
 

Replace primarySlot with the number of the primary card. You can view the primary and secondary status of cards by entering the dspred command.


Managing Redundant APS Lines

The MGX 8850 switch supports APS line redundancy. To establish redundancy between two lines, you can use the addapsln command as described in "Establishing Redundancy Between Two Lines with APS," in "Preparing AXSM Cards and Lines for Communication."

The following sections describe how to

Displaying APS Line Information

To display the APS line redundancy configuration for an AXSM card, use the dspapsln command as described below.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session at any access level.

Step 2   To view the redundancy status, enter the following command after the switch prompt:

pop20one.9.AXSM.a > dspapsln
 

After you enter the command, the switch displays a report similar to the following:

pop20one.9.AXSM.a > dspapsln
Working Prot.  Conf    Oper    Active SFBer SDBer WTR   Revt Dir LastUser
Index   Index  Arch    Arch    Line   10^-n 10^-n (min)          SwitchReq
------- -----  ----    -----   ------ ----- ----- ----- ---- --- ----------
  9.1.1  9.1.2  1+1     1+1    working     3     5    5   No uni No Request
  9.2.1  9.2.2  1+1     1+1    working     3     5    5   No uni No Request
 

Configuring APS Lines

To change the configuration for an APS line, use the cnfapsln command as described in the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1_GP privileges or higher.

Step 2   Enter the cnfapsln command as follows:

pop20one.9.AXSM.a > cnfapsln -w <workingIndex> -sf <SignalFaultBER> -sd <SignalDegradeBER> -wtr <Wait To Restore> -dr <direction> -rv <revertive>
 

Select the working line to configure by replacing workingIndex with the with the location of the working line using the format "slot.bay.line." For example, to specify the line on card 9, bay 1, line 2, enter 9.1.2.

Table 6-3 describes the cnfapsln command options.



Table 6-3: Options for cnfapsln Command
Option Description

-sf

The signal failure Bit Error Rate (BER) threshold. Replace SignalFaultBER with a number in the range of 3 to 5.

5 = signal failure BER threshold = 10 ^^ -5.

-sd

The Signal degrade BER threshold. Replace SignalDegradeBER with a number in the range of 5 to 9.

5 = signal degrade BER threshold = 10 ^^ -5.

-wtr

The number of minutes to wait before attempting to switch back to the working line. Replace Wait To Restore with a number in the range of 1 to 12 minutes.

Note that this option is applicable only when the -rv option is set to 2, enabling revertive operation.

-dr

The direction option, which specifies the communication paths to be switched when a failure occurs. The options are unidirectional or bidirectional. When the unidirectional option is selected, only the affected path, either transmit or receive, is switched. When the bidirectional option is selected, both paths are switched.

To set this option, replace the direction variable with 1 for unidirectional operation or 2 for bidirectional operation.

-rv

The revertive option, which defines how the switch should operate when a failed line recovers. The options are revertive and non-revertive. When the -rv option is configured for revertive operation and the working line recovers, the switch will switch back to the working line after the period specified by the -wtr option. If the line is configured for non-revertive operation, a failure on the working line will cause the switch to use the protect line until a manual switchover is initiated as described in "Switching APS Lines."

To set this option, replace the revertive variable with 1 for non-revertive operation or 2 for revertive operation.

Switching APS Lines

To switch between two APS lines, use the switchapsln command as described in the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1_GP privileges or higher.

Step 2   Enter the switchapsln command as follows:

pop20one.9.AXSM.a > switchapsln <bay> <line> <switchOption> <serviceSwitch>
 

Select the working line to switch by replacing bay with the bay number of the working line, and replacing line with the line number for the working line.

Table 6-4 describes the other options you can use with this command.

Removing APS Redundancy between Two Lines

To remove the redundant APS line relationship between two lines, use the delapsln command as described in the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1_GP privileges or higher.

Step 2   To remove redundancy between the two lines, enter the following command after the switch prompt:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > delapsln <workingIndex>
 

Select the working line to delete by replacing workingIndex with the location of the working line using the format "slot.bay.line." In the following example, the delapsln command removes the APS redundancy between the working line at Card 9, Bay 2, Line 1 and the protection line associated with it.

pop20one.9.AXSM.a > delapsln 9.2.1
 

Managing Network Clock Sources

The following sections describe how to do the following:

Viewing the Configured Clock Sources

One command allows you to view the configured clock sources and determine which clock source is active. To view the configured clock sources, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session at any access level.

Step 2   Enter the dspclksrcs command:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > dspclksrcs
 

The following example shows a display with neither primary nor secondary clocks configured. This is the default configuration of a switch, which uses the internal clock as the network clock source. Whenever the active clock is listed as null, the switch is using the internal clock.

pop20two.7.PXM.a > dspclksrcs
Primary clock type:     null     
Primary clock source:   0.0            
Primary clock status:   not configured 
Primary clock reason:   okay                                          
Secondary clock type:   null     
Secondary clock source: 0.0            
Secondary clock status:   not configured 
Secondary clock reason:   okay                                          
Active clock:           internal clock 
source switchover mode: non-revertive  
 

In the following example, the display shows that both the primary and secondary clocks are configured for network clock sources. The primary clock source is coming from port 4 on the AXSM card in slot 10. The primary clock source is active. The secondary clock source is coming from port 1 on the AXSM card in slot 9.

pop20one.7.PXM.a > dspclksrcs
Primary clock type:     generic  
Primary clock source:   10:2.2:4       
Primary clock status:   ok       
Primary clock reason:   okay                                          
Secondary clock type:   generic  
Secondary clock source: 9:1.1:1        
Secondary clock status:   ok       
Secondary clock reason:   okay                                          
Active clock:           primary    
source switchover mode: non-revertive  
 

Reconfiguring Clock Sources

The procedure you use to reconfigure a clock source depends on whether or not you need to change the role of the clock source. If the clock source keeps it role as either primary or secondary, just enter a new cnfclksrc command as described in the following locations:

When reconfiguring a clock source from primary to secondary or from secondary to primary, you must delete both existing clock sources and define new clock sources. The switch will not allow you to create two primary or two secondary clock sources, and the switch will not allow you to configure the same line as both primary and secondary clock sources. After you have deleted the old clock source, you can use the appropriate procedure referenced above to define a new clock source.

To delete a clock source, use the delclksrc command as described in the next section.

Deleting Clock Sources

Deleting a clock source deletes the definition of the clock source, not the clock source itself. You might want to delete a primary or secondary clock source definition so that you can reassign the clock source to another line.

To delete a clock source, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with SUPER_GP privileges or higher.

Step 2   Display the clock source information by entering the dspclksrcs command.

You will need the information in this display to delete the clock source.

Step 3   To delete a clock source, enter the delclksrc command:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > delclksrc <priority>
 

The following example deletes a primary clock source:

mgx8850a.7.PXM.a > delclksrc primary
 

Step 4   To verify that a clock source has been deleted, enter the dspclksrcs command. When the primary or secondary clock source is deleted, the clock type is set to null.


Restoring a Clock Source After Failure

The revertive option for clock sources connected to the PXM45 allows a primary clock source to resume operation as the primary clock source after a failure and restoration of the clock signal. However, if you have the revertive option disabled, or if your primary clock source is connected to an AXSM line, you will have to reconfigure the primary clock source after it is restored. To reconfigure the clock source as a BITS clock source, see "Configuring BITS Clock Sources," in "Configuring General Switch Features." To reconfigure the clock source as a AXSM line clock source, see "Configuring AXSM Line Clock Sources," in "Provisioning."


Tips Use the dspclksrcs command to display the current configuration settings for the primary clock source. Having this information available makes it easier to re-enter the cnfclksrc command.


Note   To change a clock source on the PXM45 from nonrevertive to revertive, enter the cnfclksrc with the option -revertive enable.

When the primary clock source is restored on the master clock node, you may have to reconfigure the primary clock source at each remote node where the node has switched from the primary source to the secondary source. This reconfiguration is necessary only if the local node has detected a change in the master clock source.

To determine if you need to reconfigure the primary clock at a non-master node, enter the dspclksrcs command. If the Active clock has changed to either secondary or internal clock, you must use the cnfclksrc command to reconfigure the primary clock source for that node.

Managing Feeder Connections

The procedure for defining feeder connections is described in "Provisioning." Table 6-5 lists commands that you can use to manage feeder connections.


Table 6-5: Feeder Management Commands
Command Description

dspfdrs

clrfdrstat <ifnum>

Clear statistics counters for a feeder interface. Replace ifnum with the interface number.

delfdr <ifnum>

Remove the feeder configuration from an interface. Replace ifnum with the interface number.

Displaying SVCs

To display active SVCs, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a CLI management session at any user access level.

Step 2   Enter the following command:

popeye2.7.PXM.a > dsppncons
 

The following is an example report for the dsppncons command.

Managing Service Class Templates (SCTs)

The Service Class Template (SCT) provides the ability to automatically set numerous standard ATM parameters by simply installing the SCT.

The SCT provides the settings for two types of parameters:

Connection parameters control establishing and maintaining virtual connections (VCs), and may include policing action thresholds and bandwidth configurations.

Class of Service Buffer (CoSB) configuration parameters control Quality of Service (QoS) settings.

Cisco provides two SCTs that are recommended for use.

SCT 2 provides policing action settings.

SCT 3 does not provide policing action settings and should be used if you do not require policing.

SCTs 2 and 3 can be copied from the PXM45 card to an AXSM card. The path for SCTs on an AXSM card is /SCT/AXSM

Individual SCT settings cannot be modified using the CLI. If you want to modify specific SCT parameter settings and then save the SCT, you must use Cisco Wan Manager (CWM).

If you want to create your own SCT, you can do so by modifying the parameters in SCT 2 or 3 and then saving the SCT with a different name after you have modified the parameters. You can save up to 250 SCTs with names such as SCT 4 or SCT 100.

If you just want to modify ATM parameters after the SCT is loaded, but you do not want to save the settings as an SCT, you can use the CLI commands: cnfabr, cnfcon, or cnfabrtparmdft.


Note   If you use your own SCTs you must make sure that your connecting endpoints have compatible SCTs; that is, endpoints cannot have ATM parameters with conflicting settings.

The following sections describe how to:

Displaying the SCT Assigned to a Port

To display the SCT assigned to a port, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session at any user access level.

Table 6-7 describes the service types shown in the example, and Table 6-8 explains the SCT bandwidth and policing parameters.


Table 6-7: Service Class Template: ATM Service Types
Label Description

CBR.1, CBR.2, & CBR.3

Constant Bit Rate. Used for connections that require a high QoS and strict CDV. The numbers .1, .2 and .3 indicate the type of ATM traffic management parameters used in policing for this service type.

VBR-RT.1, VBR-RT.2, & VBR-RT.3

Variable Bit Rate - Real Time. Used for connections that have bursty traffic and that require a strict CDV. The numbers .1, .2 and .3 indicate the type of ATM traffic management parameters used in policing for this service type.

VBR-nRT.1, VBR-nRT.2, & VBR-nRT.3

Variable Bit Rate - nonReal Time. Used for connections that do not require end to end timing. The numbers .1, .2 and .3 indicate the type of ATM traffic management parameters used in policing for this service type.

UBR.1& UBR.2

Unspecified Bit Rate. Used for connections that can allow any amount of data, up to a specified maximum, to be transmitted, but with no guarantees in terms of cell loss rate and delay. The numbers .1, .2 and .3 indicate the type of ATM traffic management parameters used in policing for this service type.

ABR

Available Bit Rate. Used for connections that do not require timing relationships between source and destination endpoints. ABR provides no guarantees in terms of cell loss or delay, and provides only a best-effort service. Cell rates are adjusted in response to the state or condition of the network and its ability to successfully deliver data.

Viewing an ATM Port Configuration

To view the configuration of an ATM line or trunk port, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a CLI management session at any user access level.

Step 2   To display a list of the ports already configured on the AXSM card, enter the following command:

mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > dspports 
 

This command displays all configured ports on the AXSM card. Port numbers are listed in the ifNum (interface number) column. The interfaces listed include UNI and NNI ports. Note the number of the port for which you want to view the configuration.

Step 3   To display the port configuration, enter the following command:

mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > dspport <ifNum>
 

Replace ifNum with the number assigned to the port during configuration. The following example shows the report for this command:

pop20two.9.AXSM.a > dspport 2
  Interface Number               : 2
  Line Number                    : 2.1
  Admin State                    : Up        Operational State   : Down
  Guaranteed bandwidth(cells/sec): 100000    Number of partitions: 1
  Maximum bandwidth(cells/sec)   : 100000    Number of SPVC      : 0
  ifType                         : NNI       Number of SVC       : 0
  SCT Id                         : 6 
  VPI number(VNNI only)          : 0
 

Managing Partitions

The following sections describe how to display, change, and delete a resource partition.

Displaying a Resource Partition Configuration

To display a list of resource partitions or a resource partition configuration, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a CLI management session at any user access level.

Step 2   To display a list showing the resource partitions on this card, enter the following command:

mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > dspparts
 

The switch displays a report similar to the following:

pop20one.10.AXSM.a > dspparts
if  part Ctlr egr     egr     ingr    ingr    min max   min   max  min   max

Step 3   To display the configuration of a resource partition, note the interface and partition numbers and enter the following command:

mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > dsppart <ifNum> <partId>
 

Replace ifnum with the interface number of the port, and replace partitionID with the partition number assigned to the port. The following example shows the report provided by the dsppart command.

pop20one.10.AXSM.a > dsppart 1 1
  Interface Number               : 1
  Partition Id                   : 1        Number of SPVC: 0

  guaranteed connections         : 10000
  maximum connections            : 10000
 

Changing a Resource Partition Configuration

To change the configuration of a resource partition, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1 privileges or higher.

Step 2   To display a list showing the partitions for this card, enter the dspparts command.

Step 3   To create a resource partition, enter the following command:

mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > cnfpart -if <ifNum> -id <partId> -emin <egrminbw> -emax <egrmaxbw> -imin <ingminbw> -imax <ingmaxbw> -vpmin <minVpi> -vpmax <maxVpi> -vcmin <minVci> -vcmax <maxVci> -mincon <minConns> -maxcon <maxConns> 
 

Table 6-16 describes the parameters for this command.

OC48 lines: 131071 per line to a total of 131071 per back card

Note that the maximum number of connections is 128K (131,071) for the AXSM front card and the OC48 back card. For the other AXSM back cards, which are used in pairs (upper and lower bays), the maximum number of connections is 64K (65535), which totals 128K for the front card.

maxConns

Maximum number of simultaneous connections allowed on this port. The range is the same as described for the minConns parameter, and this parameter must be set to number that is greater than the number defined for minConns.

Step 4   To display the changed partition configuration, use the dsppart command as described in the previous section.


Deleting a Resource Partition

To delete a resource partition, you must do the following:

The following procedure explains how to delete a resource partition.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with CISCO_GP privileges.

Step 2   To display a list showing the partitions for this card, enter the dspparts command.

Step 3   Note the interface number and partition number for the resource partition you want to delete.

Step 4   To display the active connections, enter the following command:

mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > dspcons
 

The following is a sample dspcons display.

pop20one.7.PXM.a > dspcons
 
Local Port         Vpi.Vci   Remote Port        Vpi.Vci    State   Owner
----------------------------+-----------------------------+-------+------
10:2.2:2          100 100    Routed            100 100     FAIL        MASTER
Local  Addr: 47.00918100000000107b65f33c.0000010a1802.00
Remote Addr: 47.009181000000002a123f213f.000001011802.00\\
 

Step 5   Review the dspcons command display to see if the interface to which the partition is assigned is being used by a connection. The Identifier column identifies the interface, VPI, and VCI for the connection in the format: if.VPI.VCI. If the interface is in use, note the VPI and VCI values of all connections that use the interface, as you will need these to delete the connections.

Step 6   Delete each connection that uses the interface by entering the following command:

mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > delcon <ifNum> <VPI> <VCI>
 

Step 7   Bring down the interface by entering the following command:

mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > dnport <ifNum>
 

Step 8   Delete the resource partition by entering the following command:

mgx8850a.10.AXSM.a > delpart <ifNum> <partId>
 

Replace ifnum with the interface number of the port, and replace partitionID with the partition number assigned to the port.

Step 9   To verify that the partition has been deleted, enter the dspparts command to display a list of partitions for the card.


Removing Static ATM Addresses

If you create a static ATM address and later want to remove that address, use the following procedure to delete it.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1 privileges or higher.

Step 2   To locate the port for which you want to delete an address, enter the dsppnports command.

Step 3   Use the following command to delete the static address:

popeye2.7.PXM.a > deladdr <portid> <atm-address> <length> [-plan {e164|nsap}]
 

The command parameters are described in Table 6-17.


Table 6-17: ATM Address Configuration Parameters
Parameter Description

portid

Port identifier in the format slot:bay.line:ifnum. These parameters are described in Table 6-1.

atm-address

Enter the ATM address using up to 40 nibbles. The ATM address can include up to 20 bytes, which is 40 nibbles or 160 bits.

length

Enter the length, in bits, of the address you specified with the atm-address parameter. Each nibble is equal to 4 bits. The acceptable range for the parameter is from 0 to 160 bits.

-plan

Enter the address plan, which is either e164 (E.164) or nsap (NSAP). For an NSAP address, the first byte of the address automatically implies one of the three NSAP address plans: NSAP E.164, NSAP DCC, or NSAP ICD.

Default = nsap.

Step 4   To verify that the static address has been deleted, enter the following command:

popeye2.7.PXM.a > dspaddr <portid> 
 

Replace portid with the port address using the format slot:bay.line:ifnum These parameters are described in Table 6-1.


Configuring VPI and VCI Ranges for SVCs and SPVCs

When you add a partition to a port, you define the minimum and maximum VPIs and VCIs for that port. These VPIs and VCIs become available for all services unless you make additional configuration changes. If this configuration is acceptable for your installation, you can skip this section. You are not required to configure VPI and VCI ranges for SVCs and SPVCs.

The MGX 8850 switch allows you to define the minimum and maximum values for the following:

To configure VPI and VCI usage for connections on a specific port, use the following procedure.


Step 1   Establish a configuration session using a user name with GROUP1 privileges or higher.

Step 2   To display a list of PNNI ports, enter the dsppnports command.

Step 3   Use the following command to bring down the PNNI port you want to configure:

popeye2.7.PXM.a > dnpnport <portid>
 

A PNNI port is automatically brought up when you add it. You must down the port before you can change the port range. Replace portid using the format slot:bay.line:ifNum. Table 6-1 describes these parameters.

Step 4   To configure the port range, enter the following command:

popeye2.7.PXM.a > cnfpnportrange <portid> [-minsvccvpi <min-svcc-vpi>] [-maxsvccvpi <max-svcc-vpi>]] [-minsvccvci <min-svcc-vci>] [-maxsvccvci <max-svcc-vci>]] [-minsvpcvpi <min-svpc-vpi>] [-maxsvpcvpi <max-svpc-vpi>]]
 

The only required parameter for this command is the portid parameter, but the command serves no purpose if you enter it without options. If you include some options with the command and omit others, the omitted options remains set to the last configured values. Table 6-18 lists and describes the options and parameters for this command.


Table 6-18: Parameters for the cnfpnportrange Command
Parameter Description

portid

Port identifier in the format slot:bay.line:ifnum. Table 6-1 describes these parameters.

min-svcc-vpi

Minimum VPI value for SVCC.

Range: 0 to 4095.
Default = 0.

max-svcc-vpi

Maximum VPI value for SVCC.

Range: 0 to 4095.
Default = 4095.

min-svcc-vci

Minimum VCI value for SVCC.

Range: 32 to 65535.
Default = 35.

max-svcc-vci

Maximum VCI value for SVCC.

Range: 32 to 65535.
Default = 65535.

min-svpc-vpi

Minimum VPI value for SVPC.

Range: 1 to 4095.
Default = 1.

max-svpc-vpi

Maximum VPI value for SVPC.

Range: 1 to 4095.
Default = 4095.

Step 5   Use the following command to bring up the PNNI port you just configured:

popeye2.7.PXM.a > uppnport <portid>
 

Replace portid using the format slot:bay.line:ifNum. Table 6-1 describes these parameters.

Step 6   To display the PNNI port range for a port, enter the following command:

popeye2.7.PXM.a > dsppnportrange <portid>
 

After you enter this command, the switch displays a report similar to the following:

pop20two.7.PXM.a > dsppnportrange 1:2.1:2
 
minSvccVpi:         0             maxSvccVpi:      4095
minSvccVci:        32             maxSvccVci:     65535
minSvpcVpi:         1             maxSvpcVpi:      4095
