1 About this Guide This guide describes the protocols and features the Dell Networking Operating System (OS) supports and provides configuration instructions and examples for implementing them. The S4820T platform is available with Dell Networking OS version 8.3.19.0 and beyond.The S4820T platform is available with Dell Networking OS version 8.3.19.0 and beyond. S4820T stacking is supported with Dell Networking OS version 8.3.19.0 and beyond.
PAGE 37
Configuration Fundamentals 2 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.
PAGE 38
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.

• show run | grep Ethernet returns a search result with instances containing a capitalized “Ethernet,” such as interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1. • show run | grep ethernet does not return that search result because it only searches for instances containing a non-capitalized “ethernet.” • show run | grep Ethernet ignore-case returns instances containing both “Ethernet” and “ethernet.” The grep command displays only the lines containing specified text.
PAGE 47
NOTE: You can filter a single command output multiple times. The save option must be the last option entered. For example: Dell# command | grep regular-expression | except regular-expression | grep other-regular-expression | find regular-expression | save. Multiple Users in Configuration Mode Dell Networking OS notifies all users when there are multiple users logged in to CONFIGURATION mode.
PAGE 48
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) during which the line card status light emitting diodes (LEDs) blink green. The system then loads the Dell Networking Operating System (OS). Boot messages scroll up the terminal window during this process. No user interaction is required if the boot process proceeds without interruption.
PAGE 49
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.
PAGE 50
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.
PAGE 51
Default Configuration A version of Dell Networking OS is pre-loaded onto the chassis; however, the system is not configured when you power up for 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.

whether this enabling or disabling method is available for such features. In 9.4(0.0), you can enable or disable the VRF application globally across the system by using this capability. You can activate VRF application on a device by using the feature vrf command in CONFIGURATION mode. NOTE: The no feature vrf command is not supported on any of the platforms. To enable the VRF feature and cause all VRF-related commands to be available or viewable in the CLI interface, use the following command.
PAGE 60
Upgrading Dell Networking OS NOTE: To upgrade Dell Networking Operating System (OS), refer to the Release Notes for the version you want to load on the system. Using HTTP for File Transfers Stating with Release 9.3(0.1), you can use HTTP to copy files or configuration details to a remote server. Use the copy source-file-url http://host[:port]/file-path command to transfer files to an external server.
PAGE 61
To validate the software image on the flash drive after the image has been transferred to the system, but before the image has been installed, use the verify {md5 | sha256} [ flash://]img-file [hash-value] command in EXEC mode. • md5: MD5 message-digest algorithm • sha256: SHA256 Secure Hash Algorithm • flash: (Optional) Specifies the flash drive. The default is to use the flash drive. You can just enter the image file name. • hash-value: (Optional). Specify the relevant hash published on i-Support.
PAGE 62
4 Management 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.
PAGE 63
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.

• Violations on secure flows or certificate issues. • 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.
PAGE 68
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.
PAGE 69
To view any changes made, use the show running-config logging command in EXEC privilege mode, as shown in the example for Configure a UNIX Logging Facility Level . 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. 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.
PAGE 70
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.
PAGE 71
Sending System Messages to a Syslog Server To send system messages to a specified syslog server, use the following command. The following syslog standards are supported: RFC 5424 The SYSLOG Protocol, R.Gerhards and Adiscon GmbH, March 2009, obsoletes RFC 3164 and RFC 5426 Transmission of Syslog Messages over UDP. • Specify the server to which you want to send system messages. You can configure up to eight syslog servers.
PAGE 72
• Specify the minimum severity level for logging to the syslog history table. CONFIGURATION mode • logging history level Specify the size of the logging buffer. CONFIGURATION mode logging buffered size • NOTE: When you decrease the buffer size, Dell Networking OS deletes all messages stored in the buffer. Increasing the buffer size does not affect messages in the buffer. Specify the number of messages that Dell Networking OS saves to its logging history table.

Example of the show running-config logging Command To view nondefault settings, use the show running-config logging command in EXEC mode. Dell#show running-config logging ! logging buffered 524288 debugging service timestamps log datetime msec service timestamps debug datetime msec ! logging trap debugging logging facility user logging source-interface Loopback 0 logging 10.10.10.
PAGE 75
CONFIGURATION mode service timestamps [log | debug] [datetime [localtime] [msec] [show-timezone] | uptime] Specify the following optional parameters: – You can add the keyword localtime to include the localtime, msec, and show-timezone. If you do not add the keyword localtime, the time is UTC. – uptime: To view time since last boot. If you do not specify a parameter, Dell Networking OS configures uptime. To view the configuration, use the show running-config logging command in EXEC privilege mode.

ftp-server enable Example of Viewing FTP Configuration Dell#show running ftp ! ftp-server enable ftp-server username nairobi password 0 zanzibar Dell# Configuring FTP Server Parameters After you enable the FTP server on the system, you can configure different parameters. To specify the system logging settings, use the following commands. • Specify the directory for users using FTP to reach the system. CONFIGURATION mode ftp-server topdir dir • The default is the internal flash directory.
PAGE 77
CONFIGURATION mode • ip ftp password password Enter a username to use on the FTP client. CONFIGURATION mode ip ftp username name To view the FTP configuration, use the show running-config ftp command in EXEC privilege mode, as shown in the example for Enable FTP Server. 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.
PAGE 78
7.4.2.0, only an ACL is required, and users are denied access before they are prompted for a username and password. Configuring Login Authentication for Terminal Lines You can use any combination of up to six authentication methods to authenticate a user on a terminal line. A combination of authentication methods is called a method list. If the user fails the first authentication method, Dell Networking OS prompts the next method until all methods are exhausted, at which point the connection is terminated.

PAGE 83
Recovering from a Failed Start A system that does not start correctly might be attempting to boot from a corrupted Dell Networking OS image or from a mis-specified location. In this case, you can restart the system and interrupt the boot process to point the system to another boot location. Use the setenv command, as described in the following steps.
PAGE 84
• 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.
PAGE 85
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.
PAGE 86
5 802.1ag 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.
PAGE 87
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 3. 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.
PAGE 89
Implementation Information Because the S-Series has a single MAC address for all physical/LAG interfaces, 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. Create a Maintenance Association. 5. Create Maintenance Points. 6. Use CFM tools: a. Continuity Check Messages. b. Loopback Message and Response.

• 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. Configure Up- MEPs on ingress ports, ports that send traffic towards the bridge relay. Configure DownMEPs on egress ports, ports that send traffic away from the bridge relay. 1. Create an MEP.

To display the MEP and MIP databases, use the following commands. • Display the MEP Database.
PAGE 93
Continuity Check Messages Continuity check messages (CCM) are periodic hellos. Continuity check messages: • discover MEPs and MIPs within a maintenance domain • detect loss of connectivity between MEPs • detect misconfiguration, such as VLAN ID mismatch between MEPs • to detect unauthorized MEPs in a maintenance domain CCMs are multicast Ethernet frames sent at regular intervals from each MEP.
PAGE 94
Enabling CCM To enable CCM, use the following commands. 1. Enable CCM. ECFM DOMAIN mode no ccm disable The default is Disabled. 2. Configure the transmit interval (mandatory). The interval specified applies to all MEPs in the domain. ECFM DOMAIN mode ccm transmit-interval seconds The default is 10 seconds. Enabling Cross-Checking To enable cross-checking, use the following commands. 1. Enable cross-checking. ETHERNET CFM mode mep cross-check enable The default is Disabled. 2.
PAGE 95
Sending Linktrace Messages and Responses Linktrace message and response (LTM, LTR), also called Layer 2 Traceroute, is an administratively sent multicast frames transmitted by MEPs to track, hop-by-hop, the path to another MEP or MIP within the maintenance domain. All MEPs and MIPs in the same domain respond to an LTM with a unicast LTR. Intermediate MIPs forward the LTM toward the target MEP. Figure 5.

802.1X 6 802.1X is a method of 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). This feature is named for its IEEE specification. 802.
PAGE 100
Figure 7. 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.
PAGE 101
2. The supplicant responds with its identity in an EAP Response Identity frame. 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 that the supplicant prove that it is who it claims to be, using a specified method (an EAPMethod).
PAGE 102
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 9. EAP Over RADIUS RADIUS Attributes for 802.1 Support Dell Networking systems include the following RADIUS attributes in all 802.
PAGE 103
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 10. 802.1X Enabled 1. Enable 802.1X globally.

In the following example, the bold lines show that 802.1X is enabled.
PAGE 105
Configuring Request Identity Re-Transmissions If the authenticator sends a Request Identity frame, but the supplicant does not respond, the authenticator waits 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 are configurable.
PAGE 106
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.

Figure 11. Dynamic VLAN Assignment 1. Configure 8021.x globally (refer to Enabling 802.1X) along with relevant RADIUS server configurations (refer to the illustration inDynamic VLAN Assignment with Port Authentication). 2. Make the interface a switchport so that it can be assigned to a VLAN. 3. Create the VLAN to which the interface will be assigned. 4. Connect the supplicant to the port configured for 802.1X. 5.
PAGE 111
If the supplicant fails authentication, the authenticator typically does not enable the port. In some cases this behavior is not appropriate. External users of an enterprise network, for example, might not be able 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.

• • Port ACL optimization is applicable only for ACLs that are applied without the VLAN range. • You cannot view the statistical details of ACL rules per VLAN and per interface if you enable the ACL VLAN group capability. You can view the counters per ACL only using the show ip accounting access list command. • Within a port, you can apply Layer 2 ACLs on a VLAN or a set of VLANs. In this case, CAM optimization is not applied.

• To allocate the number of FP blocks for ACL VLAN optimization feature, use the cam-acl-vlan vlanaclopt <0-2> command. To reset the number of FP blocks to the default, use the no version of these commands. By default, zero groups are allocated for the ACL in VCAP. ACL VLAN groups or CAM optimization is not enabled by default, and you need to allocate the slices for CAM optimization.

8 Access Control Lists (ACLs) 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.
PAGE 121
• VRF based IMPLICIT DENY Rules NOTE: In order for the VRF ACLs to take effect, ACLs configured in the Layer 3 CAM region must have an implicit-permit option. You can use the ip access-group command to configure VRF-aware ACLs on interfaces. Using the ip access-group command, in addition to a range of VLANs, you can also specify a range of VRFs as input for configuring ACLs on interfaces. The VRF range is from 1 to 63.
PAGE 122
• CAM Optimization User Configurable CAM Allocation Allocate space for IPV6 ACLs by using the cam-acl command in CONFIGURATION mode. The CAM space is allotted in filter processor (FP) blocks. The total space allocated must equal 13 FP blocks. (There are 16 FP blocks, but System Flow requires three blocks that cannot be reallocated.) Enter the ipv6acl allocation as a factor of 2 (2, 4, 6, 8, 10). All other profile allocations can use either even or odd numbered ranges.
PAGE 123
If counters are enabled on ACL rules that are already configured, those counters are reset when a new rule which is inserted or prepended or appended requires a hardware shift in the flow table. Resetting the counters to 0 is transient as the proginal counter values are retained after a few seconds. If there is no need to shift the flow in the hardware, the counters are not disturbed.

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.
PAGE 127
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 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.

To delete a filter, enter the show config command in IP ACCESS LIST mode and locate the sequence number of the filter you want to delete. Then use the no seq sequence-number command in IP ACCESS LIST mode. 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.

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.
PAGE 130
The following example shows an extended IP ACL in which the sequence numbers were assigned by the software. The filters were assigned sequence numbers based on the order in which they were configured (for example, the first filter was given the lowest sequence number). The show config command in IP ACCESS LIST mode displays the two filters with the sequence numbers 5 and 10. Example of Viewing Filter Sequence for a Specified Extended ACL Dell(config-ext-nacl)#deny tcp host 123.55.34.
PAGE 131
For information about MAC ACLs, refer to Layer 2. 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.
PAGE 132

IP Prefix Lists IP prefix lists control routing policy. An IP prefix list is a series of sequential filters that contain a matching criterion (examine IP route prefix) and an action (permit or deny) to process routes. The filters are processed in sequence so that if a route prefix does not match the criterion in the first filter, the second filter (if configured) is applied. When the route prefix matches a filter, Dell Networking OS drops or forwards the packet based on the filter’s designated action.
PAGE 136
Creating a Prefix List To create a prefix list, use the following commands. 1. Create a prefix list and assign it a unique name. You are in PREFIX LIST mode. CONFIGURATION mode ip prefix-list prefix-name 2. Create a prefix list with a sequence number and a deny or permit action. CONFIG-NPREFIXL mode seq sequence-number {deny | permit} ip-prefix [ge min-prefix-length] [le max-prefix-length] The optional parameters are: • ge min-prefix-length: the minimum prefix length to match (from 0 to 32).

Applying a Filter to a Prefix List (OSPF) To apply a filter to routes in open shortest path first (OSPF), use the following commands. • Enter OSPF mode. CONFIGURATION mode • router ospf Apply a configured prefix list to incoming routes. You can specify an interface. If you enter the name of a non-existent prefix list, all routes are forwarded. CONFIG-ROUTER-OSPF mode • distribute-list prefix-list-name in [interface] Apply a configured prefix list to incoming routes.

Important Points to Remember • For route-maps with more than one match clause: – Two or more match clauses within the same route-map sequence have the same match commands (though the values are different), matching a packet against these clauses is a logical OR operation. – Two or more match clauses within the same route-map sequence have different match commands, matching a packet against these clauses is a logical AND operation.
PAGE 143
route-map dilling permit 10 Dell(config-route-map)# You can create multiple instances of this route map by using the sequence number option to place the route maps in the correct order. Dell Networking OS processes the route maps with the lowest sequence number first. When a configured route map is applied to a command, such as redistribute, traffic passes through all instances of that route map until a match is found. The following is an example with two instances of a route map.
PAGE 144
When there are multiple match commands with the same parameter under one instance of route-map, Dell Networking OS does a match between all of those match commands. If there are multiple match commands with different parameters, Dell Networking OS does a match ONLY if there is a match among ALL the match commands. In the following example, there is a match if a route has any of the tag values specified in the match commands.
PAGE 145
• Match routes whose next hop is a specific interface. CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode match interface interface The parameters are: – For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port information. – For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information. – For a Loopback interface, enter the keyword loopback then a number from 0 to 16383. – For a port channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number.
PAGE 146
• Match routes with a specific tag. CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode match tag tag-value To create route map instances, use these commands. There is no limit to the number of match commands per route map, but the convention is to keep the number of match filters in a route map low. Set commands do not require a corresponding match command. Configuring Set Conditions To configure a set condition, use the following commands. • Add an AS-PATH number to the beginning of the AS-PATH.
PAGE 147
• set tag tag-value Specify a value as the route’s weight. CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode set weight value To create route map instances, use these commands. There is no limit to the number of set commands per route map, but the convention is to keep the number of set filters in a route map low. Set commands do not require a corresponding match command. Configure a Route Map for Route Redistribution Route maps on their own cannot affect traffic and must be included in different commands to affect routing traffic.
PAGE 148
In the following example, the redistribute ospf command with a route map is used in ROUTER RIP mode to apply a tag of 34 to all internal OSPF routes that are redistributed into RIP. Example of the redistribute Command Using a Route Tag ! router rip redistribute ospf 34 metric 1 route-map torip ! route-map torip permit 10 match route-type internal set tag 34 ! Continue Clause Normally, when a match is found, set clauses are executed, and the packet is then forwarded; no more route-map modules are processed.
PAGE 149
the maximum number of logs to be generated. If you do not specify the frequency at which ACL logs must be generated, a default interval of 5 minutes is used. Similarly, if you do not specify the threshold for ACL logs, a default threshold of 10 is used, where this value refers to the number of packets that are matched against an ACL . A Layer 2 or Layer 3 ACL contains a set of defined rules that are saved as flow processor (FP) entries.
PAGE 150
• A maximum of 125 ACL entries with permit action can be logged. A maximum of 126 ACL entries with deny action can be logged. • For virtual ACL entries, the same match rule number is reused. Similarly, when an ACL entry is deleted that was previously enabled for ACL logging, the match rule number used by it is released back to the pool or available set of match indices so that it can be reused for subsequent allocations.
PAGE 151
Flow-Based Monitoring Support for ACLs Flow-based monitoring is supported on the S4820T platform. Flow-based monitoring conserves bandwidth by monitoring only the specified traffic instead of all traffic on the interface. It is available for Layer 2 and Layer 3 ingress traffic. You can specify traffic using standard or extended access-lists. This mechanism copies incoming packets that matches the ACL rules applied on the ingress port and forwards (mirrors) them to another port.
PAGE 152
destination port, and the endpoint to which the packet must be forwarded when a match occurs with the ACL entry. If you configure the flow-based enable command and do not apply an ACL on the source port or the monitored port, both flow-based monitoring and port mirroring do not function. Flow-based monitoring is supported only for ingress traffic and not for egress packets. The port mirroring application maintains a database that contains all monitoring sessions (including port monitor sessions).

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.
PAGE 155
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 12. BFD in IPv4 Packet Format Field Description Diagnostic Code The reason that the last session failed. State The current local session state.
PAGE 156
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.
PAGE 157
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.
PAGE 158
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. However, because both members must send a control packet — that requires a response — anytime there is a state change or change in a session parameter, the passive system sends a final response indicating the state change.

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.

Figure 19. Establishing Sessions with BGP Neighbors 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.

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.
PAGE 185
Figure 21. 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.
PAGE 186
Figure 22. 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.
PAGE 187
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.
PAGE 188
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.
PAGE 189
• 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.

and AS300. This is advertised to all routers within AS100, causing all BGP speakers to prefer the path through Router B. Figure 25. 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.
PAGE 193
Figure 26. 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.

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).
PAGE 195
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.
PAGE 196
• 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 10.

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 method Dell Networking OS has used for all previous Dell Networking OS versions. ASPLAIN remains the default method with Dell Networking OS.

disabled, it is assumed that clients are in a full mesh and there is no need to advertise prefixes to the other clients. • 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.

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.
PAGE 209
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.

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.

to affect interdomain routing. By identifying certain ASN in the AS_PATH, you can permit or deny routes based on the number in its AS_PATH. 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.

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.

PAGE 223
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.

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. • The default is 0. Sets weight for the route.

For inbound and outbound updates the order of preference is: • prefix lists (using the neighbor distribute-list command) • AS-PATH ACLs (using the neighbor filter-list command) • route maps (using the neighbor route-map command) Prior to filtering BGP routes, create the prefix list, AS-PATH ACL, or route map. For configuration information about prefix lists, AS-PATH ACLs, and route maps, refer to Access Control Lists (ACLs).
PAGE 229
• 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. For example, you could have the following filter as the last filter in your prefix list permit 0.0.0.0/0 le 32).
PAGE 230
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.

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.
PAGE 232
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.

PAGE 236
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.
PAGE 237
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.

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.
PAGE 256
Figure 30. 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.
PAGE 257
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.

13 Data Center Bridging (DCB) NOTE: DCB is not supported when you use 10GBaseT ports for stacking. Ethernet Enhancements in Data Center Bridging The following section describes DCB. The S4820T 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.

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.
PAGE 268
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 is supported on specified 802.1p priority traffic (dot1p 0 to 7) and is configured per interface.

low-latency storage or server cluster traffic in a traffic class to receive more bandwidth and restrict besteffort LAN traffic assigned to a different traffic class. The following figure shows how ETS allows you to allocate bandwidth when different traffic types are classed according to 802.1p priority and mapped to priority groups. Figure 31. Enhanced Transmission Selection The following table lists the traffic groupings ETS uses to select multiprotocol traffic for transmission. Table 14.

• • • Discovery of DCB capabilities on peer-device connections. Determination of possible mismatch in DCB configuration on a peer link. Configuration of a peer device over a DCB link. 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.
PAGE 271
For DCB to operate effectively, you can classify ingress traffic according to its dot1p priority so that it maps to different data queues. The dot1p-queue assignments used are shown in the following table. To enable DCB, enable either the iSCSI optimization configuration or the FCoE configuration. 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.

DCB Map: Configuration Procedure A DCB map consists of PFC and ETS parameters. By default, PFC is not enabled on any 802.1p priority and ETS allocates equal bandwidth to each priority.
PAGE 273
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. Instead, first create a new DCB map with the desired PFC and ETS settings, and apply the new map to the interfaces to override the previous DCB map settings.

For the dot1p-queue assignments. pfc no-drop queuesqueue-range INTERFACE The maximum number of lossless queues globally supported on a port is 2.
PAGE 276
Configuring PFC and ETS in a DCB Map switch supports the use of a DCB map in which you configure priority-based flow control (PFC) and enhanced transmission selection (ETS) settings. To configure PFC and ETS parameters, you must apply a DCB map on interface. This functionality is supported on the 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.
PAGE 277
• In a switch stack, configure all stacked ports with the same PFC configuration. • Dell Networking OS allows you to change the default dot1p priority-queue assignments only if the change satisfies the following requirements in DCB maps already applied to S6000 interfaces: • All 802.1p priorities mapped to the same queue must be in the same priority group. • A maximum of two PFC-enabled, lossless queues are supported on an interface.
PAGE 278
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. • Scheduling of priority traffic: dot1p priority traffic on the switch is scheduled to the current queue mapping. dot1p priorities within the same queue must have the same traffic properties and scheduling method.
PAGE 279
Configuring Priority-Based Flow Control Priority-Based Flow Control (PFC) provides a flow control mechanism based on the 802.1p priorities in converged Ethernet traffic received on an interface and is enabled by default when you enable DCB. As an enhancement to the existing Ethernet pause mechanism, PFC stops traffic transmission for specified priorities (Class of Service (CoS) values) without impacting other priority classes. Different traffic types are assigned to different priority classes.
PAGE 280
Configuring Lossless Queues DCB also supports the manual configuration of lossless queues on an interface when PFC mode is turned off. Prerequisite: A DCB with PFC configuration is applied to the interface with the following conditions: • PFC mode is off (no pfc mode on). • No PFC priority classes are configured (no pfc priority priority-range). The configuration of no-drop queues provides flexibility for ports on which PFC is not needed but lossless traffic should egress from the interface.
PAGE 281
ETS Prerequisites and Restrictions The following prerequisites and restrictions apply when you configure ETS bandwidth allocation or queue scheduling. • Configuring ETS bandwidth allocation or a queue scheduler for dot1p priorities in a priority group is applicable if the DCBx version used on a port is CIN (refer to Configuring DCBx).
PAGE 282
6. Specify the dot1p priority-to-priority group mapping for each priority. priority-pgid dot1p0_group_num dot1p1_group_num ...dot1p7_group_num Priority group range is from 0 to 7. All priorities that map to the same queue must be in the same priority group. Leave a space between each priority group number.
PAGE 283
CIN supports only the dot1p priority-queue assignment in a priority group. To configure a dot1p priority flow in a priority group to operate with link strict priority, you configure: The dot1p priority for strict-priority scheduling (strict-priority command). The priority group for strict-priority scheduling (scheduler strict command.
PAGE 284
NOTE: Use only 40G ports as stacking ports when you enable DCB. S4820T does not support DCB when you use 10GBaseT ports as stacking ports. • Apply the specified DCB policy on all ports of the switch stack or a single stacked switch.

A port that receives an internally propagated configuration overwrites its local configuration with the new parameter values. When an auto-upstream port (besides the configuration source) receives and overwrites its configuration with internally propagated information, one of the following actions is taken: • If the peer configuration received is compatible with the internally propagated port configuration, the link with the DCBx peer is enabled.

internally propagated configuration from the configuration source. If you enable DCBx, ports in Manual mode advertise their configurations to peer devices but do not accept or propagate internal or external configurations. Unlike other userconfigured ports, the configuration of DCBx ports in Manual mode is saved in the running configuration. On a DCBx port in a manual role, all PFC, application priority, ETS recommend, and ETS configuration TLVs are enabled.
PAGE 287
Configuration Source Election When an auto-upstream or auto-downstream port receives a DCB configuration from a peer, the port first checks to see if there is an active configuration source on the switch. • If a configuration source already exists, the received peer configuration is checked against the local port configuration. If the received configuration is compatible, the DCBx marks the port as DCBxenabled.
PAGE 288
• The switch reboots. • The link is reset (goes down and up). • User-configured CLI commands require the version negotiation to restart. • The peer times out. • Multiple peers are detected on the link. If you configure a DCBx port to operate with a specific version (the DCBx version {cee | cin | ieee-v2.5} command in the Configuring DCBx), DCBx operations are performed according to the configured version, including fast and slow transmit timers and message formats.

When a device sends a pause frame to another device, the time for which the sending of packets from the other device must be stopped is contained in the pause frame. The device that sent the pause frame empties the buffer to be less than the threshold value and restarts the acceptance of data packets. Dynamic ingress buffering enables the sending of pause frames at different thresholds based on the number of ports that experience congestion at a time.

Figure 37. 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.
PAGE 319
Configure the System to be a DHCP Server A DHCP server is a network device that has been programmed to provide network configuration parameters to clients upon request. Servers typically serve many clients, making host management much more organized and efficient. The following table lists the key responsibilities of DHCP servers. Table 20. DHCP Server Responsibilities DHCP Server Responsibility Description Address Storage and Management DHCP servers are the owners of the addresses used by DHCP clients.
PAGE 320
DHCP mode network network/prefix-length • network: the subnet address. • 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.
PAGE 321
The default is 24 hours. 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.

useful when you want to guarantee that a particular network device receives a particular IP address. 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.
PAGE 323
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.
PAGE 324
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.
PAGE 325
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. When a stack failover occurs, the new master requires the same DHCP server-assigned IP address on DHCP client interfaces.
PAGE 326
DHCP Client on a Management Interface These conditions apply when you enable a management interface to operate as a DHCP client. • The management default route is added with the gateway as the router IP address received in the DHCP ACK packet. It is required to send and receive traffic to and from other subnets on the external network. The route is added irrespective when the DHCP client and server are in the same or different subnets.
PAGE 327
• • Dynamic ARP Inspection Source Address Validation Option 82 RFC 3046 (the relay agent information option, or Option 82) is used for class-based IP address assignment. The code for the relay agent information option is 82, and is comprised of two sub-options, circuit ID and remote ID. Circuit ID This is the interface on which the client-originated message is received. Remote ID This identifies the host from which the message is received.
PAGE 328
packet arrived on the correct port. Packets that do not pass this check are forwarded to the server for validation. This checkpoint prevents an attacker from spoofing a client and declining or releasing the real client’s address. Server-originated packets (DHCPOFFER, DHCPACK, and DHCPNACK) that arrive on a not trusted port are also dropped. This checkpoint prevents an attacker from acting as an imposter as a DHCP server to facilitate a man-in-the-middle attack.

packets addressed to the client to it. As a result, the attacker is able to sniff all packets to and from the client. Other attacks using ARP spoofing include: Broadcast An attacker can broadcast an ARP reply that specifies FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF as the gateway’s MAC address, resulting in all clients broadcasting all internet-bound packets. MAC flooding An attacker can send fraudulent ARP messages to the gateway until the ARP cache is exhausted, after which, traffic from the gateway is broadcast.

PAGE 334
Enabling IP Source Address Validation IP source address validation (SAV) prevents IP spoofing by forwarding only IP packets that have been validated against the DHCP binding table. A spoofed IP packet is one in which the IP source address is strategically chosen to disguise the attacker. For example, using ARP spoofing, an attacker can assume a legitimate client’s identity and receive traffic addressed to it. Then the attacker can spoof the client’s IP address to interact with other clients.

Equal Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) 15 Equal cost multi-path (ECMP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. ECMP for Flow-Based Affinity Flow-based affinity includes the following: • 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.
PAGE 338
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.
PAGE 339
For link bundle monitoring with ECMP, the ecmp-group command is used to enable the link bundle monitoring feature. 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.

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 S4820T switch stack.

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).
PAGE 343
Figure 39. 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).
PAGE 344
FCoEgenerated ACLs These take precedence over user-configured ACLs. A user-configured ACL entry cannot deny FCoE and FIP snooping frames. 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 S4820T switch.
PAGE 345
• Allocate CAM resources for FCoE. • Perform FIP snooping (allowing and parsing FIP frames) globally on all VLANs or on a per-VLAN basis. • 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.
PAGE 346
• create the VLANs on the switch which handles FCoE traffic (use the interface vlan command). • 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).

fedgovacl : nlbclusteracl: 0 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.
PAGE 348
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.
PAGE 349
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.

Enabling FIPS Cryptography 17 This chapter describes how to enable FIPS cryptography requirements on Dell Networking platforms. This feature 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.
PAGE 358
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.
PAGE 359
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.

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) may require 4 to 5 seconds to reconverge.
PAGE 362
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.
PAGE 363
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).
PAGE 364
Concept Explanation Control VLAN Each ring has a unique Control VLAN through which tagged ring health frames (RHF) are sent. Control VLANs are used only for sending RHF, and cannot be used for any other purpose. Member VLAN Each ring maintains a list of member VLANs. Member VLANs must be consistent across the entire ring. Port Role Each node has two ports for each ring: Primary and Secondary. The Master node Primary port generates RHFs. The Master node Secondary port receives the RHFs.
PAGE 365
Concept Explanation There is no periodic transmission of TCRHFs. The TCRHFs are sent on triggered events of ring failure or ring restoration only. Implementing FRRP • FRRP is media and speed independent. • FRRP is a Dell proprietary protocol that does not interoperate with any other vendor. • You must disable the spanning tree protocol (STP) on both the Primary and Secondary interfaces before you can enable FRRP. • All ring ports must be Layer 2 ports.
PAGE 366
Configuring the Control VLAN Control and member VLANS are configured normally for Layer 2. Their status as control or member is determined at the FRRP group commands. For more information about configuring VLANS in Layer 2 mode, refer to Layer 2. Be sure to follow these guidelines: • All VLANS must be in Layer 2 mode. • You can only add ring nodes to the VLAN. • A control VLAN can belong to one FRRP group only. • Tag control VLAN ports.

19 GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) GARP VLAN registration protocol (GVRP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Typical virtual local area network (VLAN) implementation involves manually configuring each Layer 2 switch that participates in a given VLAN. 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.
PAGE 373
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, that type of port is referred to as a VLAN trunk port, but it is not necessary to specifically identify to the Dell Networking OS that the port is a trunk port. Figure 42.

not be unconfigured when it receives a Leave PDU. Therefore, the registration mode on that interface is FIXED. • 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.

Hitless protocols are compatible with other hitless and graceful restart protocols.
PAGE 385
Failure and Event Logging Dell Networking systems provide multiple options for logging failures and events. Trace Log Developers interlace messages with software code to track the execution of a program. These messages are called trace messages and are primarily used for debugging and to provide lowerlevel information then event messages, which system administrators primarily use.
PAGE 386
Process Restartability Process restartability is an extension to the Dell Networking OS high availability system component that enables application processes and system protocol tasks to be restarted. This extension increases system reliability and uptime by attempting to restart the crashed process on primary RPM before executing the failover procedure as a last resort. Currently, if a software exception occurs, Dell Networking OS executes a failover procedure.

Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) 21 Internet group management protocol (IGMP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Multicast is premised on identifying many hosts by a single destination IP address; hosts represented by the same IP address are a multicast group. IGMP is a Layer 3 multicast protocol that hosts use to join or leave a multicast group.
PAGE 389
Figure 43. 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.
PAGE 390
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.
PAGE 391
Figure 45. 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.
PAGE 392
Figure 46. 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.

Then, after no response, it removes the group from the outgoing interface for the subnet.
PAGE 397
• If IGMP snooping is enabled on a PIM-enabled VLAN interface, data packets using the router as an Layer 2 hop may be dropped. To avoid this scenario, Dell Networking recommends that users enable IGMP snooping on server-facing end-point VLANs only. Configuring IGMP Snooping Configuring IGMP snooping is a one-step process. To enable, view, or disable IGMP snooping, use the following commands. There is no specific configuration needed for IGMP snooping with virtual link trunking (VLT).
PAGE 398
interface Vlan 100 no ip address ip igmp snooping fast-leave shutdown Dell(conf-if-vl-100)# Disabling Multicast Flooding If the switch receives a multicast packet that has an IP address of a group it has not learned (unregistered frame), the switch floods that packet out of all ports on the VLAN. When you configure the no ip igmp snooping flood command, the system drops the packets immediately. The system does not forward the frames on mrouter ports, even if they are present.
PAGE 399
When enabled, IGMP snooping querier starts after one query interval in case no IGMP general query (with IP SA lower than its VLAN IP address) is received on any of its VLAN members. Adjusting the Last Member Query Interval To adjust the last member query interval, use the following command. When the querier receives a Leave message from a receiver, it sends a group-specific query out of the ports specified in the forwarding table. If no response is received, it sends another.

• Received in the management port with destination IP not equal to management IP address or management subnet broadcast address is dropped. Traffic (switch initiated management traffic or responses to switch-destined traffic with management port IP address as the source IP address) for user-specified management protocols must exit out of the management port.

• If SSH request is received on the management port destined to the management port IP address, the response to the request is sent out of the management port by performing a route lookup in the EIS routing table • If the SSH request is received on the front-end port destined for the front-end IP address, the response traffic is sent by doing a route lookup in the default routing table only. • If the management port is down or route lookup fails in the management EIS routing table, packets are dropped.
PAGE 403
Handling of Switch-Initiated Traffic When the control processor (CP) initiates a control packet, the following processing occurs: • TCP/UDP port number is extracted from the sockaddr structure in the in_selectsrc call which is called as part of the connect system call or in the ip_output function.

response traffic and hence is sent out of the management port. In this case, the source IP address is a management port IP address only if the traffic was originally destined to the management port IP. • ICMP-based applications like ping and traceroute are exceptions to the preceding logic since we do not have TCP/UDP port number. So if source IP address of the packet matches the management port IP address EIS route lookup is done.

This fallback mechanism is required. 2. Non-Management Applications (Applications that are not configured as management applications as defined by this feature): Non-management application traffic exits out of either front-end data port or management port based on routing table.
PAGE 407
Behavior of Various Applications for Switch-Destined Traffic This section describes the different system behaviors that occur when traffic is terminated on the switch. Traffic has not originated from the switch and is not transiting the switch. Switch-destined traffic is applicable only for applications which act as server for the TCP session and also for ICMP-based applications like ping and traceroute. FTP, SSH, and Telnet are the applications that can function as servers for the TCP session.
PAGE 408
VLT feature is for the front-end port only. Because this feature is specific to the management port, this feature can coexist with VLT and nothing specific needs to be done in this feature to handle VLT scenario. DHCP • If DHCP Client is enabled on the management port, a management default route is installed to the switch. • If management EIS is enabled, this default route is added to the management EIS routing table and the default routing table.

Bulk Configuration Bulk configuration allows you to determine if interfaces are present for physical interfaces or configured for logical interfaces. Interface Range An interface range is a set of interfaces to which other commands may be applied and may be created if there is at least one valid interface within the range. Bulk configuration excludes from configuration any non-existing interfaces from an interface range.
PAGE 431
Create a Multiple-Range The following is an example of multiple range. Example of the interface range Command (Multiple Ranges) Dell(conf)#interface range tengigabitethernet 1/5 - 10 , tengigabitethernet 1/1 , vlan 1 Dell(conf-if-range-te-1/1,te-1/5-10,vl-1)# Exclude Duplicate Entries The following is an example showing how duplicate entries are omitted from the interface-range prompt.

NOTE: Although it is possible to configure the remaining three 10 Gigabit ports, the Link UP event does not occur for these ports leaving the lanes unusable. Dell Networking OS perceives these ports to be in a Link Down state. You must not try to use these remaining three 10 Gigabit ports for actual data transfer or for any other related configurations. NOTE: Trident2 chip sets do not work at 1G speeds with auto-negotiation enabled.

Error-Disabled state and for all practical purposes of routing, the interface is deemed to be “down.” After the interface becomes stable and the penalty decays below a certain threshold, the interface comes up again and the routing protocols re-converge. Link dampening: • reduces processing on the CPUs by reducing excessive interface flapping. • improves network stability by penalizing misbehaving interfaces and redirecting traffic.

Layer 2 Overhead Difference Between Link MTU and IP MTU Untagged Packet with VLAN-Stack Header 22 bytes Tagged Packet with VLAN-Stack Header 26 bytes Link MTU and IP MTU considerations for port channels and VLANs are as follows. 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.
PAGE 446
NOTE: As a best practice, Dell Networking recommends keeping auto-negotiation enabled. Only disable auto-negotiation on switch ports that attach to devices not capable of supporting negotiation or where connectivity issues arise from interoperability issues. For 10/100/1000 Ethernet interfaces, the negotiation auto command is tied to the speed command. Auto-negotiation is always enabled when the speed command is set to 1000 or auto.

Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) 23 Internet protocol security (IPSec) is available on Dell Networking OS. 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.

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.

Resolution of Host Names Domain name service (DNS) maps host names to IP addresses. This feature simplifies such commands 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.
PAGE 465
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.

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.
PAGE 468

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 information.
PAGE 469
ARP Learning via ARP Request In Dell Networking OS versions prior to 8.3.1.0, Dell Networking OS learns via ARP requests only if the target IP specified in the packet matches the IP address of the receiving router interface. This is the case when a host is attempting to resolve the gateway address. If the target IP does not match the incoming interface, the packet is dropped. If there is an existing entry for the requesting host, it is updated. Figure 48.
PAGE 470
requests increases. This time increase reduces the potential for the system to slow down while waiting for a multitude of ARP responses. To set and display ARP retries, use the following commands. • Set the number of ARP retries. CONFIGURATION mode arp retries number The default is 5. • 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.

• Set FTOS to create and send ICMP unreachable messages on the interface. INTERFACE mode ip unreachable To view if ICMP unreachable messages are sent on the interface, use the show config command in INTERFACE mode. If it is not listed in the show config command output, it is enabled. Only non-default information is displayed in the show config command output.

Dell#show ip udp-helper -------------------------------------------------Port UDP port list -------------------------------------------------te 1/1 1000 Configuring a Broadcast Address To configure a broadcast address, use the following command. • Configure a broadcast address on an interface.
PAGE 473
UDP Helper with Broadcast-All Addresses When the destination IP address of an incoming packet is the IP broadcast address, Dell Networking OS rewrites the address to match the configured broadcast address. In the following illustration: 1. Packet 1 is dropped at ingress if you did not configure UDP helper address. 2.
PAGE 474
Packet 2 is sent from the host on VLAN 101. It has a broadcast MAC address and a destination IP address of 1.1.1.255. In this case, it is flooded on VLAN 101 in its original condition as the forwarding process is Layer 2. Figure 51. UDP Helper with Subnet Broadcast Addresses 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.
PAGE 475
UDP Helper with No Configured Broadcast Addresses The following describes UDP helper with no broadcast addresses configured. • If the incoming packet has a broadcast destination IP address, the unaltered packet is routed to all Layer 3 interfaces. • If the Incoming packet has a destination IP address that matches the subnet broadcast address of any interface, the unaltered packet is routed to the matching interfaces.

IPv6 Routing 25 Internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) routing is supported on Dell Networking OS. NOTE: The IPv6 basic commands are supported on all platforms. However, not all features are supported on all platforms, nor for all releases. To determine the Dell Networking Operating System (OS) version supporting which features and platforms, refer to Implementing IPv6 with Dell Networking OS. IPv6 is the successor to IPv4.
PAGE 477
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). By default, RA response messages are sent when an RS message is received. Dell Networking OS manipulation of IPv6 stateless autoconfiguration supports the router side only.
PAGE 478
IPv6 Header Fields The 40 bytes of the IPv6 header are ordered, as shown in the following illustration. Figure 53. 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.
PAGE 479
The following lists the Next Header field values. 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 .
PAGE 480
However, if the Destination Address is a Hop-by-Hop options header, the Extension header is examined by every forwarding router along the packet’s route. The Hop-by-Hop options header must immediately follow the IPv6 header, and is noted by the value 0 (zero) in the Next Header field. 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.

Leading and/or trailing zeros in a group can also be omitted (as in ::1 for localhost, 1:: for network addresses and :: for unspecified addresses). All the addresses in the following list are all valid and equivalent.

Figure 54. Path MTU Discovery Process IPv6 Neighbor Discovery NDP is a top-level protocol for neighbor discovery on an IPv6 network. In lieu of address resolution protocol (ARP), NDP uses “Neighbor Solicitation” and “Neighbor Advertisement” ICMPv6 messages for determining relationships between neighboring nodes. Using these messages, an IPv6 device learns the link-layer addresses for neighbors known to reside on attached links, quickly purging cached values that become invalid.
PAGE 486
Figure 55. 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.
PAGE 487
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.

iSCSI Optimization 26 iSCSI optimization is supported on Dell Networking OS. This chapter describes how to configure internet small computer system interface (iSCSI) optimization, which enables quality-of-service (QoS) treatment for iSCSI traffic.
PAGE 499
• If you configure flow-control, iSCSI uses the current configuration. If you do not configure flowcontrol, iSCSI auto-configures flow control settings so that receive-only is enabled and transmit-only is disabled. . • 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.
PAGE 500
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.
PAGE 501
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.
PAGE 502
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.
PAGE 503
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.
PAGE 504
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.

Intermediate System to Intermediate System 27 Intermediate system to intermediate system (Is-IS) is supported on Dell Networking OS. • • • • IS-IS is supported on the S4820T with Dell Networking OS 8.3(19.0). The IS-IS protocol is an interior gateway protocol (IGP) that uses a shortest-path-first algorithm. Dell Networking supports both IPv4 and IPv6 versions of IS-IS. The IS-IS protocol standards are listed in the Standards Compliance chapter.
PAGE 509
The NET length is variable, with a maximum of 20 bytes and a minimum of 8 bytes. It is composed of the following: • area address — within your routing domain or area, each area must have a unique area value. The first byte is called the authority and format indicator (AFI). • 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.
PAGE 510
Transition Mode All routers in the area or domain must use the same type of IPv6 support, either single-topology or multitopology. A router operating in multi-topology mode does not recognize the ability of the singletopology mode router to support IPv6 traffic, which leads to holes in the IPv6 topology.
PAGE 511
A new TLV (the Restart TLV) is introduced in the IIH PDUs, indicating that the router supports graceful restart. Timers Three timers are used to support IS-IS graceful restart functionality. After you enable graceful restart, these timers manage the graceful restart process. There are three times, T1, T2, and T3. • The T1 timer specifies the wait time before unacknowledged restart requests are generated.
PAGE 512
• Accepts external IPv6 information and advertises this information in the PDUs. The following table lists the default IS-IS values. Table 36.
PAGE 513
Enabling IS-IS By default, IS-IS is not enabled. The system supports one instance of IS-IS. To enable IS-IS globally, create an IS-IS routing process and assign a NET address. To exchange protocol information with neighbors, enable IS-IS on an interface, instead of on a network as with other routing protocols. In IS-IS, neighbors form adjacencies only when they are same IS type. For example, a Level 1 router never forms an adjacency with a Level 2 router.

5. Enter an IPv6 Address. INTERFACE mode ipv6 address ipv6-address mask • • ipv6 address: x:x:x:x::x mask: The prefix length is from 0 to 128. The IPv6 address must be on the same subnet as other IS-IS neighbors, but the IP address does not need to relate to the NET address. 6. Enable IS-IS on the IPv4 interface. ROUTER ISIS mode 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.

• Configure graceful restart timer T3 to set the time used by the restarting router as an overall maximum time to wait for database synchronization to complete. ROUTER-ISIS mode graceful-restart t3 {adjacency | manual seconds} – adjacency: the restarting router receives the remaining time value from its peer and adjusts its T3 value so if user has configured this option. – manual: allows you to specify a fixed value that the restarting router should use. The range is from 50 to 120 seconds.

28 Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) Link aggregation control protocol (LACP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. 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. The benefits and constraints are basically the same, as described in Port Channel Interfaces in the Interfaces chapter.
PAGE 535
• 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. This command removes all LACP-specific commands on the member interfaces.
PAGE 536
• 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.

Figure 59. 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.
PAGE 540
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 60.
PAGE 541
• • If a LAG that is part of a failover group is deleted, the failover group is deleted. 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 61. LACP Basic Configuration Example Configure a LAG on ALPHA The following example creates a LAG on ALPHA.

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.

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.

PAGE 554
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. NOTE: Alternatively, you can reset the interface by shutting it down using the shutdown command and then re-enabling it using the no shutdown command. • Reset interfaces in the ERR_Disabled state caused by a learning limit violation or station move violation.
PAGE 555
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).

Figure 71. 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.

Figure 74. Organizationally Specific TLV IEEE Organizationally Specific TLVs Eight TLV types have been defined by the IEEE 802.1 and 802.3 working groups as a basic part of LLDP; the IEEE OUI is 00-80-C2. You can configure the Dell Networking system to advertise any or all of these TLVs. Table 43.

Type TLV Description 127 Protocol Identity Indicates the protocols that the port can process. Dell Networking OS does not currently support this TLV. 127 MAC/PHY Configuration/Status Indicates the capability and current setting of the duplex status and bit rate, and whether the current settings are the result of auto-negotiation. This TLV is not available in the Dell Networking OS implementation of LLDP, but is available and mandatory (non-configurable) in the LLDP-MED implementation.
PAGE 568
Regarding connected endpoint devices, LLDP-MED provides network connectivity devices with the ability to: • manage inventory • manage Power over Ethernet (PoE) • identify physical location • identify network policy LLDP-MED is designed for, but not limited to, VoIP endpoints.

NOTE: As shown in the following table, signaling is a series of control packets that are exchanged between an endpoint device and a network connectivity device to establish and maintain a connection. These signal packets might require a different network policy than the media packets for which a connection is made. In this case, configure the signaling application. Table 47.
PAGE 572
Extended Power via MDI TLV The extended power via MDI TLV enables advanced PoE management between LLDP-MED endpoints and network connectivity devices. 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.
PAGE 573
Important Points to Remember • LLDP is enabled by default. • 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.
PAGE 574
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. PROTOCOL LLDP mode no disable Disabling and Undoing LLDP To disable or undo LLDP, use the following command. • Disable LLDP globally or for an interface.

Configuring Transmit and Receive Mode After you enable LLDP, Dell Networking systems transmit and receive LLDPDUs by default. To configure the system to transmit or receive only and return to the default, use the following commands. • Transmit only. CONFIGURATION mode or INTERFACE mode • mode tx Receive only. CONFIGURATION mode or INTERFACE mode • mode rx Return to the default setting.
PAGE 579
Configuring a Time to Live The information received from a neighbor expires after a specific amount of time (measured in seconds) called a time to live (TTL). The TTL is the product of the LLDPDU transmit interval (hello) and an integer called a multiplier. The default multiplier is 4, which results in a default TTL of 120 seconds. • Adjust the TTL value. CONFIGURATION mode or INTERFACE mode. • multiplier Return to the default multiplier value. CONFIGURATION mode or INTERFACE mode.

Microsoft Network Load Balancing 31 This functionality is supported on Dell Networking OS. Network Load Balancing (NLB) is a clustering functionality that is implemented by Microsoft on Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003 operating systems. 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.
PAGE 587
• With NLB feature enabled, after learning the NLB ARP entry, all the subsequent traffic is flooded on all ports in VLAN1. With NLB, the data frame is forwarded to all the servers for them to perform load-balancing. NLB Multicast Mode Scenario Consider a sample topology in which four servers, namely S1 through S4, are configured as a cluster or a farm. This set of servers is connected to a Layer 3 switch, which in turn is connected to the end-clients.
PAGE 588
flooded out of all member ports. Since all the servers in the cluster receive traffic, failover and balancing are preserved. Enable and Disable VLAN Flooding • The older ARP entries are overwritten whenever newer NLB entries are learned. • All ARP entries, learned after the feature is enabled, are deleted when the feature is disabled, and RP2 triggers an ARP resolution. The feature is disabled with the no ip vlan-flooding command.

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).
PAGE 590
Figure 80. 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 81.
PAGE 591
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).
PAGE 597
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.

Logging Changes in Peership States To log changes in peership states, use the following command. • Log peership state changes. CONFIGURATION mode ip msdp log-adjacency-changes Terminating a Peership MSDP uses TCP as its transport protocol. In a peering relationship, the peer with the lower IP address initiates the TCP session, while the peer with the higher IP address listens on port 639. • Terminate the TCP connection with a peer.

technique is less effective as traffic increases because preemptive load balancing requires prior knowledge of traffic distributions. • lack of scalable register decasulation: With only a single RP per group, all joins are sent to that RP regardless of the topological distance between the RP, sources, and receivers, and data is transmitted to the RP until the SPT switch threshold is reached.

33 Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) Multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Protocol Overview MSTP — specified in IEEE 802.1Q-2003 — is a rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP)-based spanning tree variation that improves on 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.
PAGE 616
Spanning Tree Variations The Dell Networking OS supports four variations of spanning tree, as shown in the following table. Table 52. 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 .1s Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus (PVST+) Third Party Implementation Information The following describes the MSTP implementation information.
PAGE 617
• 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.
PAGE 618
PROTOCOL MSTP mode msti 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.

BPDU (MRecords): sent 39291, received 7547 The port is not in the Edge port mode 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.
PAGE 620
Dell Networking OS equipment that participates in MSTP, ensure these values match on all the equipment. NOTE: Some non-Dell Networking OS equipment may implement a non-null default region name. SFTOS, for example, uses the Bridge ID, while others may use a MAC address. 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.
PAGE 621
The range is from 4 to 30. The default is 15 seconds. 2. Change the hello-time parameter. 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.
PAGE 622
Modifying the Interface Parameters You can adjust two interface parameters to increase or decrease the probability that a port becomes a forwarding port. • • Port cost is 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. Port priority influences the likelihood that a port is selected to be a forwarding port in case that several ports have the same port cost.
PAGE 623
you implement only bpduguard, although the interface is placed in an Error Disabled state when receiving the BPDU, the physical interface remains up and spanning-tree drops packets in the hardware after a BPDU violation. BPDUs are dropped in the software after receiving the BPDU violation. This feature is the same as PortFast mode in spanning tree. CAUTION: Configure EdgePort only on links connecting to an end station. EdgePort can cause loops if you enable it on an interface connected to a network.
PAGE 624
To view the enable status of this feature, use the show running-config spanning-tree mstp command from EXEC Privilege mode.

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 by 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/IPv6 object tracking is available on Dell Networking OS. Object tracking allows the Dell Networking Operating System (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.
PAGE 640
Figure 95. 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.
PAGE 641
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/IPv6 address and prefix-length, and optionally, by a virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) instance name if the route to be tracked is part of a VRF. The next-hop address is not part of the definition of the tracked object. A tracked route matches a route in the routing table only if the exact address and prefix length match an entry in the routing table.
PAGE 642
• For OSPF, you can set the resolution in the range from 1 to 1592, where the default is 1. • 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.

Tracking a Layer 3 Interface You can create an object that tracks the routing status of an IPv4 or IPv6 Layer 3 interface. You can track the routing status of any of the following Layer 3 interfaces: • For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet 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.

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.
PAGE 652
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 96. Autonomous System Areas Area Types The backbone of the network is Area 0. It is also called Area 0.0.0.
PAGE 653
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.
PAGE 654
Figure 97. 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.
PAGE 655
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.
PAGE 656
available. An ABR floods the information for the router (for example, the ASBR where the Type 5 advertisement originated. The link-state ID for Type 4 LSAs is the router ID of the described ASBR). • 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.
PAGE 657
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.
PAGE 658
Dell Networking OS supports stub areas, totally stub (no summary) and not so stubby areas (NSSAs) and supports the following LSAs, as described earlier.
PAGE 659
• 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.
PAGE 660
Each OSPFv2 process has a unique process ID and must have an associated router ID. There must be an equal number of interfaces and must be in Layer-3 mode for the number of processes created. For example, if you create five OSPFv2 processes on a system, there must be at least five interfaces assigned in Layer 3 mode. Each OSPFv2 process is independent. If one process loses adjacency, the other processes continue to function.

The OSPF process must know about these interfaces. To make the OSPF process aware of these interfaces, they must be assigned to OSPF areas.
PAGE 663
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. You must configure at least one interface for Layer 3 before enabling OSPFv2 globally. If implementing multi-process OSPF, create an equal number of Layer 3 enabled interfaces and OSPF process IDs. For example, if you create four OSPFv2 process IDs, you must have four interfaces with Layer 3 enabled. 1. Assign an IP address to an interface.

Enabling Passive Interfaces A passive interface is one that does not send or receive routing information. Enabling passive interface suppresses routing updates on an interface. Although the passive interface does not send or receive routing updates, the network on that interface is still included in OSPF updates sent via other interfaces. To suppress the interface’s participation on an OSPF interface, use the following command. This command stops the router from sending updates on that interface.

OSPFv3 restarting expects its OSPFv3 neighbors to help when it restarts by not advertising the broken link. When you enable the helper-reject role on an interface using the ipv6 ospf graceful-restart helper-reject command, you reconfigure OSPFv3 graceful restart to function in a restarting-only role.

PAGE 686
OSPFv3 Authentication Using IPsec: Configuration Notes OSPFv3 authentication using IPsec is implemented according to the specifications in RFC 4552. • To use IPsec, configure an authentication (using AH) or encryption (using ESP) security policy on an interface or in an OSPFv3 area. Each security policy consists of a security policy index (SPI) and the key used to validate OSPFv3 packets. After IPsec is configured for OSPFv3, IPsec operation is invisible to the user.
PAGE 687
Configuring IPsec Authentication on an Interface To configure, remove, or display IPsec authentication on an interface, use the following commands. Prerequisite: Before you enable IPsec authentication 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)).

Policy-based Routing (PBR) 37 Policy-based Routing (PBR) allows a switch to make routing decisions based on policies applied to an interface.
PAGE 695
To enable a PBR, you create a redirect list. Redirect lists are defined by rules, or routing policies.
PAGE 696
a tunnel interface user needs to provide tunnel id mandatory. Instead if user provides the tunnel destination IP as next hop, that would be treated as IPv4 next hop and not tunnel next hop. PBR with Multiple Tacking Option: Policy based routing with multiple tracking option extends and introduces the capabilities of object tracking to verify the next hop IP address before forwarding the traffic to the next hop. The verification method is made transparent to the user.

PAGE 700
NOTE: When you apply a redirect-list on a port-channel, when traffic is redirected to the next hop and the destination port-channel is shut down, the traffic is dropped. However, on the S-Series, the traffic redirected to the destination port-channel is sometimes switched. Use the following command inINTERFACE mode to apply a redirect list to an interface. Multiple redirectlists can be applied to a redirect-group.
PAGE 701
To view the configuration redirect list configuration, use the following command in EXEC mode: Command Syntax Command Mode Purpose show ip redirect-list redirect-list-name EXEC View the redirect list configuration and the associated interfaces. show cam pbr View the redirect list entries programmed in the CAM. EXEC show cam-usage List the redirect list configuration using the show ip redirect-list redirect-list-name command. The noncontiguous mask is displayed in dotted format (x.x.x.x).

PIM Sparse-Mode (PIM-SM) 38 Protocol-independent multicast sparse-mode (PIM-SM) is supported on Dell Networking OS. 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 PIM-Dense mode, which forwards multicast traffic to all subnets until a request to stop. Implementation Information Be aware of the following PIM-SM implementation information.
PAGE 708
received becomes the outgoing interface associated with the (*,G) entry. This process constructs an RPT branch to the RP. 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.
PAGE 709
Important Point to Remember If you use a Loopback interface with a /32 mask as the RP, you must enable PIM Sparse-mode on the interface. 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.
PAGE 710
NOTE: You can influence the selection of the Rendezvous Point by enabling PIM-Sparse mode on a Loopback interface and assigning a low IP address. To display PIM neighbors for each interface, use the show ip pim neighbor command EXEC Privilege mode. Dell#show ip Neighbor Address 127.87.5.5 127.87.3.5 127.87.50.
PAGE 711
The default is 210. 2. Set the expiry time for a specific (S,G) entry (as shown in the following example). CONFIGURATION mode ip pim sparse-mode sg-expiry-timer seconds sg-list access-list-name The range is from 211 to 86,400 seconds. The default is 210.
PAGE 712
Overriding Bootstrap Router Updates PIM-SM routers must know the address of the RP for each group for which they have (*,G) entry. This address is obtained automatically through the bootstrap router (BSR) mechanism or a static RP configuration. Use the following command if you have configured a static RP for a group. If you do not use the override option with the following command, the RPs advertised in the BSR updates take precedence over any statically configured RPs.
PAGE 713
Creating Multicast Boundaries and Domains A PIM domain is a contiguous set of routers that all implement PIM and are configured to operate within a common boundary defined by PIM multicast border routers (PMBRs). PMBRs connect each PIM domain to the rest of the Internet. Create multicast boundaries and domains by filtering inbound and outbound bootstrap router (BSR) messages per interface. The following command is applied to the subsequent inbound and outbound updates.
PAGE 714
PIM Source-Specific Mode (PIM-SSM) 39 PIM source-specific mode (PIM-SSM) is supported on Dell Networking OS. 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.
PAGE 715
Configure PIM-SMM Configuring PIM-SSM is a two-step process. 1. Configure PIM-SMM. 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.
PAGE 716
• • • When you remove the mapping configuration, Dell Networking OS removes the corresponding (S,G) states that it created and re-establishes the original (*,G) states. 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.

40 Port Monitoring Port monitoring is supported on Dell Networking OS. 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.
PAGE 719
Port Monitoring The S4820T supports multiple source-destination statements in a single monitor session. The maximum number of source ports that can be supported in a session is 128. The maximum number of destination ports that can be supported is 4 per port pipe. In the following examples, ports 1/13, 1/14, 1/15, and 1/16 all belong to the same port-pipe. They are pointing to four different destinations (1/1, 1/2, 1/3, and 1/37).
PAGE 720
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.

PAGE 722
Figure 101. Port Monitoring Example Enabling Flow-Based Monitoring Flow-based monitoring is supported only on the S-Series platform. 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.
PAGE 723
Example of the flow-based enable Command To view an access-list that you applied to an interface, use the show ip accounting access-list command from EXEC Privilege mode.

source session uses a separate reserved VLAN to transmit mirrored packets (mirrored source-session traffic is shown with an orange or green circle with a blue border). The reserved VLANs transport the mirrored traffic in sessions (blue pipes) to the destination analyzers in the local network. Two destination sessions are shown: one for the reserved VLAN that transports orange-circle traffic; one for the reserved VLAN that transports green-circle traffic.
PAGE 725
• Mirrored traffic is transported across the network using 802.1Q-in-802.1Q tunneling. The source address, destination address and original VLAN ID of the mirrored packet are preserved with the tagged VLAN header. Untagged source packets are tagged with the reserve VLAN ID. • The RPM VLAN can’t be a Private VLAN. • The RPM VLAN can be used as GVRP VLAN. • The L3 interface configuration should be blocked for RPM VLAN.
PAGE 726
Restrictions When you configure remote port mirroring, the following restrictions apply: • • • • • • You can configure the same source port to be used in multiple source sessions. 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.

Configuring the Encapsulated Remote Port Mirroring The ERPM session copies traffic from the source ports/lags or source VLANs and forwards the traffic using routable GRE-encapsulated packets to the destination ip address specified in the session. Important: The steps to be followed for the ERPM Encapsulation : • Dell Networking OS supports ERPM Source session only. The Encapsulated packets terminate at the destination ip or at the analyzer.

PAGE 732
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. As seen in the above figure, the packets received/transmitted on Port A will be encapsulated with an IP/GRE header plus a new L2 header and sent to the destination ip address (Port D’s ip address) on the sniffer.

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. We can make use of such features (for example: editcap ) and chop the ERPM header part and save it to a new trace file. This new file (i.e. the original mirrored packet) can be converted back into stream and fed to any egress interface. b.

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).

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.

Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus (PVST+) 42 Per-VLAN spanning tree plus (PVST+) is supported on Dell Networking OS. 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). For more information about spanning tree, refer to the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) chapter. Figure 103.

Figure 104. 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.

PROTOCOL PVST mode 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.
PAGE 750
The range is from 0 to 240, in increments of 16. 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.
PAGE 751
PVST+ in Multi-Vendor Networks Some non-Dell Networking systems which have hybrid ports participating in PVST+ transmit two kinds of BPDUs: an 802.1D BPDU and an untagged PVST+ BPDU. Dell Networking systems do not expect PVST+ BPDU (tagged or untagged) on an untagged port. If this situation occurs, Dell Networking OS places the port in an Error-Disable state. This behavior might result in the network not converging.

• 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. Table 59.

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.

PAGE 762
ACLs acl1 and acl2 have overlapping rules because the address range 20.1.1.0/24 is within 20.0.0.0/8. Therefore (without the keyword order), packets within the range 20.1.1.0/24 match positive against cmap1 and are buffered in queue 7, though you intended for these packets to match positive against cmap2 and be buffered in queue 4. In cases such as these, where class-maps with overlapping ACL rules are applied to different queues, use the keyword order.

NOTE: To avoid issues misconfiguration causes, Dell Networking recommends configuring either DCBX or Egress QoS features, but not both simultaneously. If you enable both DCBX and Egress QoS at the same time, the DCBX configuration is applied and unexpected behavior occurs on the Egress QoS. Creating an Input QoS Policy To create an input QoS policy, use the following steps. 1. Create a Layer 3 input QoS policy.
PAGE 765
Configuring Policy-Based Rate Shaping To configure policy-based rate shaping, use the following command. • Configure rate shape egress traffic. QOS-POLICY-OUT mode rate-shape Allocating Bandwidth to Queue Schedule packets for egress based on Deficit Round Robin (DRR). These strategies both offer a guaranteed data rate. 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.

Applying a Class-Map or Input QoS Policy to a Queue To apply a class-map or input QoS policy to a queue, use the following command. • Assign an input QoS policy to a queue.
PAGE 767
Honoring dot1p Values on Ingress Packets Dell Networking OS honors dot1p values on ingress packets with the Trust dot1p feature. The following table specifies the queue to which the classified traffic is sent based on the dot1p value. Table 62.

• Create service classes. INTERFACE mode service-class dynamic dot1p Guaranteeing Bandwidth to dot1p-Based Service Queues To guarantee bandwidth to dot1p-based service queues, use the following command. Apply this command in the same way as the bandwidth-percentage command in an output QoS policy (refer to Allocating Bandwidth to Queue). The bandwidth-percentage command in QOSPOLICY-OUT mode supersedes the service-class bandwidth-percentage command. • Guarantee a minimum bandwidth to queues globally.

INTERFACE mode service-queue Specifying an Aggregate QoS Policy To specify an aggregate QoS policy, use the following command. • Specify an aggregate QoS policy. POLICY-MAP-OUT mode policy-aggregate Applying an Output Policy Map to an Interface To apply an output policy map to an interface, use the following command. • Apply an input policy map to an interface.
PAGE 770
• Each color map can only have one list of DSCP values for each color; any DSCP values previously listed for that color that are not in the new DSCP list are colored green. • If you configured a DSCP color map on an interface that does not exist or you delete a DSCP color map that is configured on an interface, that interface uses an all green color policy. To create a DSCP color map: 1. Create the color-aware map QoS DSCP color map. CONFIGURATION mode qos dscp-color-map color-map-name 2.

Create a WRED profile.
PAGE 774
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. • DP values of 110 and 100, 101 map to yellow; all other values map to green.
PAGE 775
Out of Profile 0 Dell# Pre-Calculating Available QoS CAM Space Before Dell Networking OS version 7.3.1, there was no way to measure the number of CAM entries a policy-map would consume (the number of CAM entries that a rule uses is not predictable; from 1 to 16 entries might be used per rule depending upon its complexity). Therefore, it was possible to apply to an interface a policy-map that requires more entries than are available.

Global Service Pools With WRED and ECN Settings Support for global service pools is now available. You can configure global service pools that are shared buffer pools accessed by multiple queues when the minimum guaranteed buffers for the queue are consumed. S4820T platform support four global service-pools in the egress direction. Two service pools are used– one for loss-based queues and the other for lossless (priority-based flow control (PFC)) queues.

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.
PAGE 781
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.
PAGE 782
• 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 Routing information protocol (RIP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. 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. There are two versions of RIP: RIP version 1 (RIPv1) and RIP version 2 (RIPv2).
PAGE 787
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 66.
PAGE 788
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.

PAGE 790
Controlling RIP Routing Updates By default, RIP broadcasts routing information out all enabled interfaces, but you can configure RIP to send or to block RIP routing information, either from a specific IP address or a specific interface. To control which devices or interfaces receive routing updates, configure a direct update to one router and configure interfaces to block RIP updates from other sources. To control the source of RIP route information, use the following commands.
PAGE 791
redistribute {connected | static} [metric metric-value] [route-map map-name] – metric-value: the range is from 0 to 16. • – map-name: the name of a configured route map. Include IS-IS routes in RIP. ROUTER RIP mode redistribute isis [level-1 | level-1-2 | level-2] [metric metric-value] [route-map map-name] – metric-value: the range is from 0 to 16. • – map-name: the name of a configured route map. Include specific OSPF routes in RIP.
PAGE 792
The following example shows the RIP configuration after the ROUTER RIP mode version command is set to RIPv2. When you set the ROUTER RIP mode version command, the interface (TenGigabitEthernet 1/1) participating in the RIP process is also set to send and receive RIPv2 (shown in bold). To view the routing protocols configuration, use the show ip protocols command in EXEC mode.
PAGE 793
Dell# Generating a Default Route Traffic is forwarded to the default route when the traffic’s network is not explicitly listed in the routing table. Default routes are not enabled in RIP unless specified. Use the default-information originate command in ROUTER RIP mode to generate a default route into RIP. In Dell Networking OS, default routes received in RIP updates from other routes are advertised if you configure the defaultinformation originate command.

• Apply a weight to all routes or a specific route and ACL. ROUTER RIP mode distance weight [ip-address mask [access-list-name]] Configure the following parameters: – weight: the range is from 1 to 255. The default is 120. – ip-address mask: the IP address in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D), and the mask in slash format (/x). • – access-list-name: the name of a configured IP ACL. Apply an additional number to the incoming or outgoing route metrics.

45 Remote Monitoring (RMON) Remote monitoring (RMON) is supported on Dell Networking OS. 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.
PAGE 801
• RPM Down, RPM Failover — Master and standby route processor modules (RPMs) run the RMON sampling process in the background. Therefore, when an RPM goes down, the other RPM maintains the sampled data — the new master RPM provides the same sampled data as did the old master — as 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.
PAGE 802
– owner string: (Optional) specifies an owner for the alarm, this setting is the alarmOwner object in the alarmTable of the RMON MIB. Default is a null-terminated string. Example of the rmon alarm Command To disable the alarm, use the no form of the command. 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.
PAGE 803
Configuring RMON Collection Statistics To enable RMON MIB statistics collection on an interface, use the RMON collection statistics command in INTERFACE CONFIGURATION mode. • Enable RMON MIB statistics collection. CONFIGURATION INTERFACE (config-if) mode [no] rmon collection statistics {controlEntry integer} [owner ownername] – controlEntry: specifies the RMON group of statistics using a value. – integer: a value from 1 to 65,535 that identifies the RMON Statistics Table.
PAGE 804
The following command example enables an RMON MIB collection history group of statistics with an ID number of 20 and an owner of john, both the sampling interval and the number of buckets use their respective defaults.
PAGE 805
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) 46 Rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Protocol Overview 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). The Dell Networking OS supports three other variations of spanning tree, as shown in the following table. Table 67.
PAGE 806
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.
PAGE 807
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.
PAGE 808
Figure 110. 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.

PAGE 810
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.
PAGE 811
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.
PAGE 812
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.
PAGE 813
• 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. • 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).

No specific show command exists for TACACS+ accounting.
PAGE 819
NOTE: RADIUS and TACACS servers support VRF-awareness functionality. You can create RADIUS and TACACS groups and then map multiple servers to a group. The group to which you map multiple servers is bound to a single VRF. Configuration Task List for AAA Authentication The following sections provide the configuration tasks.
PAGE 820
3. Assign a method-list-name or the default list to the terminal line. LINE mode login authentication {method-list-name | default} 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.
PAGE 821
The following example shows enabling authentication from the RADIUS server. Dell(config)# aaa authentication enable default radius tacacs Radius and TACACS server has to be properly setup for this. Dell(config)# radius-server host x.x.x.x key Dell(config)# tacacs-server host x.x.x.x key To use local authentication for enable secret on the console, while using remote authentication on VTY lines, issue the following commands.

Example of Obscuring Password and Keys Dell(config)# service obscure-passwords 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.

In custom-configured privilege levels, the enable command is always available. No matter what privilege level you entered Dell Networking OS, you can enter the enable 15 command to access and configure all CLIs. 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.
PAGE 825
• mode: enter a keyword for the modes (exec, configure, interface, line, route-map, or router) • • level level: the range is from 0 to 15. Levels 0, 1, and 15 are pre-configured. Levels 2 to 14 are available for custom configuration. 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.

RADIUS Remote authentication dial-in user service (RADIUS) is a distributed client/server protocol. This protocol transmits authentication, authorization, and configuration information between a central RADIUS server and a RADIUS client (the Dell Networking system). The system sends user information to 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.

Auto-Command You can configure the system through the RADIUS server to automatically execute a command when you connect to a specific line. The auto-command command is executed when the user is authenticated and before the prompt appears to the user. • Automatically execute a command. auto-command Privilege Levels Through the RADIUS server, you can configure a privilege level for the user to enter into when they connect to a session. This value is configured on the client system. • Set a privilege level.

• 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. If RADIUS denies authorization, the session ends (RADIUS must not be the last method specified). Applying the Method List to Terminal Lines To enable RADIUS AAA login authentication for a method list, apply it to a terminal line.
PAGE 831
To specify multiple RADIUS server hosts, configure the radius-server host command multiple times. If you configure multiple RADIUS server hosts, Dell Networking OS attempts to connect with them in the order in which they were configured. When Dell Networking OS attempts to authenticate a user, the software connects with the RADIUS server hosts one at a time, until a RADIUS server host responds with an accept or reject response.

Command Authorization The AAA command authorization feature configures Dell Networking OS to send each configuration command to a TACACS server for authorization before it is added to the running configuration. By default, the AAA authorization commands configure the system to check both EXEC mode and CONFIGURATION mode commands. Use the no aaa authorization config-commands command to enable only EXEC mode command checking.

You can create up to 8 additional user roles. NOTE: You cannot delete any system defined roles.
PAGE 848
• Modifying Command Permissions for Roles • Adding and Deleting Users from a Role Creating a New User Role Instead of using the system defined user roles, you can create a new user role that best matches your organization. When you create a new user role, you can first inherit permissions from one of the system defined roles. Otherwise you would have to create a user role’s command permissions from scratch. You then restrict commands or add commands to that role.

When role-based only AAA authorization is enabled, the enable, line, and none methods are not available. Each of these three methods allows users to be verified with either a password that is not specific to their user ID or with no password at all. Because of the lack of security these methods are not available for role only mode. When the system is in role-only mode, users that have only privilege levels are denied access to the system because they do not have a role.

Service Provider Bridging 49 Service provider bridging is supported on 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 802.1Q architecture to offer separate VLANs to customers with no coordination between customers, and minimal coordination between customers and the provider. Using only 802.

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.

sFlow 50 Configuring sFlow is supported on Dell Networking OS. 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. It is designed to provide traffic monitoring for high-speed networks with many switches and routers. sFlow uses two types of sampling: • Statistical packet-based sampling of switched or routed packet flows.
PAGE 876
Important Points to Remember • The Dell Networking OS implementation of the sFlow MIB supports sFlow configuration via snmpset. • By default, sFlow collection is supported only on data ports. If you want to enable sFlow collection through management ports, use the management egress-interface-selection and application sflow-collector commands in Configuration and EIS modes respectively. • Dell Networking OS exports all sFlow packets to the collector.

– interval value: in seconds. The range is from 15 to 86400 seconds. The default is 20 seconds. Back-Off Mechanism If the sampling rate for an interface is set to a very low value, the CPU can get overloaded with flow samples under high-traffic conditions. In such a scenario, a binary back-off mechanism gets triggered, which doubles the sampling-rate (halves the number of samples per second) for all interfaces. The backoff mechanism continues to double the sampling-rate until the CPU condition is cleared.

51 Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Simple network management protocol (SNMP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. 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). Protocol Overview Network management stations use SNMP to retrieve or alter management data from network elements.
PAGE 885
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.
PAGE 886
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 Configuring SNMP version 3 requires configuring SNMP users in one of three methods.
PAGE 887
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.

PAGE 890
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).
PAGE 891
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.

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.
PAGE 908
Deriving Interface Indices Dell Networking OS assigns an interface number to each (configured or unconfigured) physical and logical interface. The interface index is a binary number with bits that indicate the slot number, port number, interface type, and card type of the interface. Dell Networking OS converts this binary index number to decimal, and displays it in the output of the show interface command.

53 Storm Control Storm control is supported on Dell Networking OS. The storm control feature allows you to control unknown-unicast and broadcast traffic on Layer 2 and Layer 3 physical interfaces. Dell Networking Operating System (OS) Behavior: Dell Networking OS supports 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.
PAGE 937
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.
PAGE 938
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.
PAGE 939
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.

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.
PAGE 941
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.
PAGE 942
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.
PAGE 943
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.
PAGE 944
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.

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.
PAGE 948
Figure 124. 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.
PAGE 949
• 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.
PAGE 950
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.
PAGE 951
Figure 125. STP Loop Guard Prevents Forwarding Loops Configuring Loop Guard Enable STP loop guard on a per-port or per-port channel basis. Dell Networking OS Behavior: The following conditions apply to a port enabled with loop guard: • Loop guard is supported on any STP-enabled port or port-channel interface.
PAGE 952
• 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.
PAGE 953
System Time and Date 55 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. In the release 9.4.(0.0), support for reaching an NTP server through different VRFs is included. You can configure a maximum of eight logging servers across different VRFs or the same VRF.
PAGE 954
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.
PAGE 955
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.

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.
PAGE 957
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.
PAGE 958
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.

PAGE 959
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.
PAGE 960
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.

Tunneling 56 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, OSPFv2, and OSPFv3 are also supported. 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. You can configure a tunnel in IPv6 mode, IPv6IP mode, and IPIP mode.

PAGE 966
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 will borrow its address. The following sample configuration shows how to use the tunnel interface configuration commands. Dell(conf-if-te-1/1)#show config ! interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1 ip address 20.1.1.
PAGE 967
Configuring Tunnel source anylocal Decapsulation The tunnel source anylocal command allows a multipoint receive-only 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. The source anylocal parameters can be used for packet decapsulation instead of the ip address or interface (tunnel allow-remote command), but only on multipoint receive-only mode tunnels.

Uplink Failure Detection (UFD) 57 Uplink failure detection (UFD) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Feature Description UFD provides detection of the loss of upstream connectivity and, if used with network interface controller (NIC) teaming, automatic recovery from a failed link. A switch provides upstream connectivity for devices, such as servers. If a switch loses its upstream connectivity, downstream devices also lose their connectivity.
PAGE 969
Figure 127. 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.
PAGE 970
Figure 128. 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.
PAGE 971
– 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 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.
PAGE 972
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 1/1-2,5,9,11-12 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.
PAGE 973
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) 59 Virtual LANs (VLANs) are supported on Dell Networking OS. 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 Dell Networking Operating System (OS) supports up to 4093 port-based VLANs and one default VLAN, as specified in IEEE 802.1Q.
PAGE 980
command places the interface in Layer 2 mode and the show vlan command in EXEC privilege mode indicates that the interface is now part of the Default VLAN (VLAN 1). 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.
PAGE 981
VLANs and Port Tagging To add an interface to a VLAN, the interface must be in Layer 2 mode. After you place an interface in Layer 2 mode, the interface is automatically placed in the Default VLAN. Dell Networking OS supports IEEE 802.1Q tagging at the interface level to filter traffic. When you enable tagging, a tag header is added to the frame after the destination and source MAC addresses. That information is preserved as the frame moves through the network.
PAGE 982
NOTE: In a VLAN, the shutdown command stops Layer 3 (routed) traffic only. Layer 2 traffic continues to pass through the VLAN. If the VLAN is not a routed VLAN (that is, configured with an IP address), the shutdown command has no affect on VLAN traffic. When you delete a VLAN (using the no interface vlan vlan-id command), any interfaces assigned to that VLAN are assigned to the Default VLAN as untagged interfaces. To create a port-based VLAN, use the following command.
PAGE 983
interface vlan vlan-id 2. Enable an interface to include the IEEE 802.1Q tag header. INTERFACE mode tagged interface Add an Interface to Another VLAN To view just the interfaces that are in Layer 2 mode, use the show interfaces switchport command in EXEC Privilege mode or EXEC mode. The following example shows the steps to add a tagged interface (in this case, port channel 1) to VLAN 4. To view the interface’s status. Interface (po 1) is tagged and in VLAN 2 and 3, use the show vlan command.
PAGE 984
Moving Untagged Interfaces To move untagged interfaces from the Default VLAN to another VLAN, use the following commands. 1. Access INTERFACE VLAN mode of the VLAN to which you want to assign the interface. CONFIGURATION mode interface vlan vlan-id 2. Configure an interface as untagged. INTERFACE mode untagged interface This command is available only in VLAN interfaces.
PAGE 985
4 Active T U Te 1/1 Te 1/2 The only way to remove an interface from the Default VLAN is to place the interface in Default mode by using the no switchport command in INTERFACE mode. Assigning an IP Address to a VLAN VLANs are a Layer 2 feature. For two physical interfaces on different VLANs to communicate, you must assign an IP address to the VLANs to route traffic between the two interfaces.
PAGE 986
To configure a port so that it can be a member of an untagged and tagged VLANs, use the following commands. 1. Remove any Layer 2 or Layer 3 configurations from the interface. INTERFACE mode 2. Configure the interface for Hybrid mode. INTERFACE mode portmode hybrid 3. Configure the interface for Switchport mode. INTERFACE mode switchport 4. Add the interface to a tagged or untagged VLAN.

Virtual Link Trunking (VLT) 60 Virtual link trunking (VLT) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Overview 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). VLT reduces the role of spanning tree protocols (STPs) by allowing link aggregation group (LAG) terminations on two separate distribution or core switches, and by supporting a loop-free topology.
PAGE 988
Figure 130. VLT on S4820T Switches VLT on Core Switches You can also deploy 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.
PAGE 989
Figure 131. 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.
PAGE 990
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 S4820T 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.
PAGE 991
• VLT Heartbeat is supported only on default VRFs. • In a scenario where one hundred hosts are connected to a Peer1 on a non-VLT domain and traffic flows through Peer1 to Peer2; when you move these hosts from a non-VLT domain to a VLT domain and send ARP requests to Peer1, only half of these ARP requests reach Peer1, while the remaining half reach Peer2 (because of LAG hashing).
PAGE 992
– 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. – The system automatically includes the required VLANs in VLTi. You do not need to manually select VLANs.
PAGE 993
– In order that the chassis backup link does not share the same physical path as the interconnect trunk, Dell Networking recommends using the management ports on the chassis and traverse an out-of-band management network. The backup link can use user ports, but not the same ports the interconnect trunk uses. – The chassis backup link does not carry control plane information or data traffic. Its use is restricted to health checks only.
PAGE 994
– Enable Layer 3 VLAN connectivity VLT peers by configuring a VLAN network interface for the same VLAN on both switches. – Dell Networking does not recommend enabling peer-routing if the CAM is full. To enable peerrouting, a minimum of two local DA spaces for wild card functionality are required. • Software features supported on VLT physical ports – In a VLT domain, the following software features are supported on VLT physical ports: 802.
PAGE 995
Primary and Secondary VLT Peers To prevent issues when connectivity between peers is lost, you can designate Primary and Secondary roles for VLT peers . You can elect or configure the Primary Peer. By default, the peer with the lowest MAC address is selected as the Primary Peer. You can configure another peer as the Primary Peer using the VLT domain domain-id role priority priority-value command. If the VLTi link fails, the status of the remote VLT Primary Peer is checked using the backup link.
PAGE 996
When the bandwidth usage drops below the 80% threshold, the system generates another syslog message (shown in the following message) and an SNMP trap. %STKUNIT0-M:CP %VLTMGR-6-VLT-LAG-ICL: Overall Bandwidth utilization of VLT-ICLLAG (port-channel 25) reaches below threshold. Bandwidth usage (74 )VLT show remote port channel status VLT and Stacking You cannot enable stacking on S4820T units with VLT.
PAGE 997
This delay in bringing up the VLT ports also applies when the VLTi link recovers from a failure that caused the VLT ports on the secondary VLT peer node to be disabled. PIM-Sparse Mode Support on VLT The designated router functionality of the PIM Sparse-Mode multicast protocol is supported on VLT peer switches for multicast sources and receivers that are connected to VLT ports. VLT peer switches can act as a last-hop router for IGMP receivers and as a first-hop router for multicast sources. Figure 132.
PAGE 998
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. In addition to being first-hop or last -hop routers, the peer node can also act as an intermediate router.
PAGE 999
time needed for peer recovery provides resiliency. You can enable VLT unicast across multiple configurations using VLT links. You can enable ECMP on VLT nodes using VLT unicast. VLT unicast routing is supported on both IPv6/IPv4. To enable VLT unicast routing, both VLT peers must be in L3 mode. Static route and routing protocols such as RIP, OSPF, ISIS, and BGP are supported. However, point-to-point configuration is not supported. To enable VLT unicast, VLAN configuration must be symmetrical on both peers.
PAGE 1000
• VLT resiliency — After a VLT link or peer failure, if the traffic hashes to the VLT peer, the traffic continues to be routed using multicast until the PIM protocol detects the failure and adjusts the multicast distribution tree. • Optimal routing — The VLT peer that receives the incoming traffic can directly route traffic to all downstream routers connected on VLT ports.
PAGE 1001
Non-VLT ARP Sync ARP entries (including ND entries) learned on other ports are synced with the VLT peer to support station move scenarios. NOTE: ARP entries learned on non-VLT, non-spanned VLANs are not synced with VLT peers. RSTP Configuration RSTP is supported in a VLT domain. Before you configure VLT on peer switches, configure RSTP in the network. RSTP is required for initial loop prevention during the VLT startup phase.
PAGE 1002
Sample RSTP Configuration The following is a sample of an RSTP configuration. Using the example shown in the Overview section as a sample VLT topology, the primary VLT switch sends BPDUs to an access device (switch or server) with its own RSTP bridge ID. BPDUs generated by an RSTP-enabled access device are only processed by the primary VLT switch. The secondary VLT switch tunnels the BPDUs that it receives to the primary VLT switch over the VLT interconnect.
PAGE 1003
Configuring a VLT Interconnect To configure a VLT interconnect, follow these steps. 1. Configure the port channel for the VLT interconnect on a VLT switch and enter interface configuration mode. CONFIGURATION mode interface port-channel id-number Enter the same port-channel number configured with the peer-link port-channel command as described in Enabling VLT and Creating a VLT Domain. NOTE: To be included in the VLTi, the port channel must be in Default mode (no switchport or VLAN assigned). 2.
PAGE 1004
To disable VLT, use the no vlt domain command. NOTE: Do not use MAC addresses such as “reserved” or “multicast.” 2. Configure the IP address of the management interface on the remote VLT peer to be used as the endpoint of the VLT backup link for sending out-of-band hello messages. VLT DOMAIN CONFIGURATION mode back-up destination ip-address [interval seconds] You can optionally specify the time interval used to send hello messages. The range is from 1 to 5 seconds. 3.
PAGE 1005
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.
PAGE 1006
Also, reconfigure the same MAC address on the VLT peer switch. Use this command to minimize the time required for the VLT system to synchronize the default MAC address of the VLT domain on both peer switches when one peer switch reboots. 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.
PAGE 1007
INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode 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.
PAGE 1008
Enter the same port-channel number configured with the peer-link port-channel command in the Enabling VLT and Creating a VLT Domain. 2. 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: • For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port information. • 3. For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port information.
PAGE 1009
The unit IDs are used for internal system operations. 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. 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.

18. Repeat steps 1 through 15 for the VLT peer node in Domain 2. To verify the configuration of a VLT domain, use any of the show commands described in Verifying a VLT Configuration. 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.

Secondary peers. Only the Primary VLT switch determines the PVST+ roles and states on VLT ports and ensures that the VLT interconnect link is never blocked. PVST+ instance in Primary peer will send the role/state of VLT-LAGs for all VLANs to the Secondary peer. Secondary peer will use this information to program the hardware. PVST+ instance running in Secondary peer will not control the VLT-LAGs.

eVLT Configuration Example The following example demonstrates the steps to configure enhanced VLT (eVLT) in a network. In this example, you are configuring two domains. Domain 1 consists of Peer 1 and Peer 2; Domain 2 consists of Peer 3 and Peer 4, as shown in the following example. 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 133.

Specifying VLT Nodes in a PVLAN You can configure VLT peer nodes in a private VLAN (PVLAN). VLT enables redundancy without the implementation of Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), and provides a loop-free network with optimal bandwidth utilization. Because the VLT LAG interfaces are terminated on two different nodes, PVLAN configuration of VLT VLANs and VLT LAGs are symmetrical and identical on both the VLT peers. PVLANs provide Layer 2 isolation between ports within the same VLAN.
PAGE 1027
not validated if you associate an ICL to a PVLAN. Similarly, if you dissociate an ICL from a PVLAN, although the PVLAN parity exists, ICL is removed from that PVLAN. Association of VLTi as a Member of a PVLAN If a VLAN is configured as a non-VLT VLAN on both the peers, the VLTi link is made a member of that VLAN if the VLTi link is configured as a PVLAN or normal VLAN on both the peers.
PAGE 1028
PVLAN Operations When a VLT Peer is Restarted When the VLT peer node is rebooted, the VLAN membership of the VLTi link is preserved and when the peer node comes back online, a verification is performed with the newly received PVLAN configuration from the peer. If any differences are identified, the VLTi link is either added or removed from the VLAN. When the peer node restarts and returns online, all the PVLAN configurations are exchanged across the peers.

For example, if VLAN 100 and 200 are configured on the VLT peers, and if the VLAN 100 IP address is configured as 10.1.1.0/24 and the VLAN 200 IP address is configured as 20.1.1.0/24, the proxy ARP is not performed if the VLT node receives an ARP request for 20.1.1.0/24 on VLAN 100.
PAGE 1034
VLT Nodes as Rendezvous Points for Multicast Resiliency You can configure virtual link trunking (VLT) peer nodes as rendezvous points (RPs) in a Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) domain. PIM uses a VLT node as the RP to distribute multicast traffic to a multicast group. Messages to join the multicast group (Join messages) and data are sent towards the RP, so that receivers can discover who the senders are and begin receiving traffic destined for the multicast group.

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.
PAGE 1040
Guidelines for Enabling the VLT Proxy Gateway Keep the following points in mind when you enable this functionality: 1. The proxy gateway is supported only for VLT; for example, across VLT domain. 2. You must enable the VLT peer-routing command for the VLT proxy gateway to function. 3. The current design does not handle asymmetric virtual local area network (VLAN) configuration scenarios such as the same VLAN configured with L2 mode on one VLT domain and L3 mode on another VLT domain.

the same subnet, there is no route asymmetry dynamically. But if you configure the static route on one DC and not on the other, there is asymmetry. 8. If the port-channel specified in theproxy-gateway command is not a VLT LAG, the configuration is rejected by the CLI. VLT LAG to a legacy LAG when it is part of proxy-gateway. 9. You cannot change the LLDP port channel interface to a legacy LAG when you enable the proxy gateway. 10.
PAGE 1042
LLDP Organizational TLV for Proxy Gateway Define a new organizational TLV : • LLDP defines an organizationally specific TLV (type 127) with an organizationally unique identifier (0x0001E8) and organizationally defined subtype (0x01) for sending or receiving this information. • LLDP will uses the existing infrastructure and adds the new TLV, and sends and receives only on the configured ports.
PAGE 1043
2. Configure peer-domain-link port-channel in VLT Domain Proxy Gateway LLDP mode. The VLT port channel is the one that connects the remote VLT domain. Sample Configurations for Static VLT Proxy Gateway Apply the following configurations in the Core L3 Routers C and D in local VLT domain and C1 and D1 in the remote VLT domain: 1. Configure proxy-gateway static in VLT Domain CONFIG mode 2. Configure remote-mac-address in VLT Domain Proxy Gateway LLDP mode.
PAGE 1044
1. The above figure show a sample VLT Proxy gateway scenario. Their 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 undergo sub-optimal routing with the VLT Proxy Gateway LLDP method. For VLT Proxy Gateway to work in this scenario you must configure the , VLT-peer-mac transmit command under VLT Domain Proxy Gateway LLDP mode, in both C and D (VLT domain 1) and C1 and D1 (VLT domain 2).

Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) 62 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.
PAGE 1047
Figure 134. 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.
PAGE 1048
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 83.

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.

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.
PAGE 1062
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.

route-map import_ospf_protocol and then specify the match criteria as OSPF using the match sourceprotocol ospf command. You can then use the ip route-import route-map command to import routes matching the filtering criteria defined in the import_ospf_protocol route-map. For a reply communication, VRF-blue is configured with a route-export tag. This value is then configured as route-import tag on the VRF-Red. To configure route leaking using filtering criteria, perform the following steps: 1.

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) 63 Virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. 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). The MASTER router is chosen from the virtual routers by an election process and forwards packets sent to the next hop IP address.
PAGE 1068
Figure 137. 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.
PAGE 1069
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 84.

• 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.
PAGE 1071
You can use the version both command in INTERFACE mode to migrate from VRRPv2 to VRRPv3. When you set the VRRP version to both, the switch sends only VRRPv3 advertisements but can receive VRRPv2 or VRRPv3 packets. 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.

belonging to either subnet 50.1.1.0/24 or subnet 60.1.1.0/24, but not from both subnets (though Dell Networking OS allows the same). • If the virtual IP address and the interface’s primary/secondary IP address are the same, the priority on that VRRP group MUST be set to 255. The interface then becomes the OWNER router of the VRRP group and the interface’s physical MAC address is changed to that of the owner VRRP group’s MAC address.
PAGE 1073
The following example shows the same VRRP group (VRID 111) configured on multiple interfaces on different subnets.

PAGE 1075
Disabling Preempt The preempt command is enabled by default. The command forces the system to change the MASTER router if another router with a higher priority comes online. Prevent the BACKUP router with the higher priority from becoming the MASTER router by disabling preempt. NOTE: You must configure all virtual routers in the VRRP group the same: you must configure all with preempt enabled or configure all with preempt disabled.
PAGE 1076
If you are configured for VRRP version 2, the timer values must be in multiples of whole seconds. For example, timer value of 3 seconds or 300 centisecs are valid and equivalent. However, a timer value of 50 centisecs is invalid because it not is not multiple of 1 second. If are using VRRP version 3, you must configure the timer values in multiples of 25 centisecs. To change the advertisement interval in seconds or centisecs, use the following command. A centisecs is 1/100 of a second.
PAGE 1077
The lowered priority of the VRRP group may trigger an election. As the Master/Backup VRRP routers are selected based on the VRRP group’s priority, tracking features ensure that the best VRRP router is the Master for that group. The sum of all the costs of all the tracked interfaces must be less than the configured priority on the VRRP group. If the VRRP group is configured as Owner router (priority 255), tracking for that group is disabled, irrespective of the state of the tracked interfaces.

PAGE 1082
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.

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.

S-Series Debugging and Diagnostics 64 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.
PAGE 1096
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.

Using the Show Hardware Commands The show hardware command tree consists of commands used with the system. These commands display information from a hardware sub-component and from hardware-based feature tables. NOTE: Use the show hardware commands only under the guidance of the Dell Technical Assistance Center. The following lists the show hardware commands available as of the latest Dell Networking OS version.
PAGE 1101
• This view helps identifying the stack unit/port pipe/port that may experience internal drops. View the input and output statistics for a stack-port interface. EXEC Privilege mode • show hardware stack-unit {0-11} stack-port {0-64} View the counters in the field processors of the stack unit. EXEC Privilege mode • show hardware stack-unit {0-11} unit {0-1} counters View the details of the FP Devices and Hi gig ports on the stack-unit.
PAGE 1102
Recognize an Overtemperature Condition An overtemperature condition occurs, for one of two reasons: the card genuinely is too hot or a sensor has malfunctioned. Inspect cards adjacent to the one reporting the condition to discover the cause. • If directly adjacent cards are not normal temperature, suspect a genuine overheating condition. • If directly adjacent cards are normal temperature, suspect a faulty sensor. When the system detects a genuine over-temperature condition, it powers off the card.
PAGE 1103
This message indicates that the specified card is not receiving enough power. In response, the system first shuts down Power over Ethernet (PoE). If the under-voltage condition persists, line cards are shut down, then the RPMs. 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.

Buffer Tuning Buffer tuning allows you to modify the way your switch allocates buffers from its available memory and helps prevent packet drops during a temporary burst of traffic. The S-Series application-specific integrated circuit (ASICs) implement the key functions of queuing, feature lookups, and forwarding lookups in hardware.
PAGE 1105
• Oversubscription ratio = 10 • Dynamic Cell Limit Per port = 59040/29 = 2036 cells Figure 142. 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.
PAGE 1106
• buffer-profile csf csqueue Change the dedicated buffers on a physical 1G interface. 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.
PAGE 1107
To display the default buffer profile, use the show buffer-profile {summary | detail} command from EXEC Privilege mode. 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.

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..

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.
PAGE 1114
--------------------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.
