About this Guide 1 This guide describes the protocols and features the Dell Networking Operating System (OS) supports and provides configuration instructions and examples for implementing them. For complete information about all the CLI commands, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide. The Z9100–ON platform is available with Dell Networking OS version 9.8 (1.0) and beyond. Though this guide contains information on protocols, it is not intended to be a complete reference.
PAGE 34
2 Configuration Fundamentals The Dell Networking Operating System (OS) command line interface (CLI) is a text-based interface you can use to configure interfaces and protocols. The CLI is largely the same for each platform except for some commands and command outputs. The CLI is structured in modes for security and management purposes. Different sets of commands are available in each mode, and you can limit user access to modes using privilege levels.
PAGE 35
• • 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. You can configure a password for this mode; refer to the Configure the Enable Password section in the Getting Started chapter.

To disable a command and remove it from the running-config, enter the no command, then the original command. For example, to delete an IP address configured on an interface, use the no ip address ip-address command.
PAGE 41
• Enter [space]? after a keyword lists all of the keywords that can follow the specified keyword. Dell(conf)#clock ? summer-time Configure summer (daylight savings) time timezone Configure time zone Dell(conf)#clock Entering and Editing Commands Notes for entering commands. • The CLI is not case-sensitive. • You can enter partial CLI keywords. – Enter the minimum number of letters to uniquely identify a command.
PAGE 42
Short-Cut Key Combination Action Esc F Moves the cursor forward one word. Esc D Deletes all characters from the cursor to the end of the word. Command History The Dell Networking OS maintains a history of previously-entered commands for each mode. For example: • When you are in EXEC mode, the UP and DOWN arrow keys display the previously-entered EXEC mode commands. • When you are in CONFIGURATION mode, the UP or DOWN arrows keys recall the previously-entered CONFIGURATION mode commands.

3 Getting Started This chapter describes how you start configuring your system. When you power up the chassis, the system performs a power-on self test (POST) and system then loads the Dell Networking Operating System. Boot messages scroll up the terminal window during this process. No user interaction is required if the boot process proceeds without interruption. When the boot process completes, the system status LEDs remain online (green) and the console monitor displays the EXEC mode prompt.
PAGE 45
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 Z9100–ON console port to a terminal server. 2. Connect the other end of the cable to the DTE terminal server. 3.
PAGE 46
When you connect the micro USB-B port, it becomes the primary connection and, while connected, all messages are sent to the micro USB-B port. NOTE: Before starting this procedure, be sure that you have a terminal emulation program already installed on your PC. You need to install the appropriate drivers to support the micro USB-B port. For assistance, contact http://www.dell.com/support to download the drivers. To access the micro USB-B console port, follow these steps. 1. Power on the PC. 2.
PAGE 47
Accessing the System Remotely You can configure the system to access it remotely by Telnet or SSH. • The platform has a dedicated management port and a management routing table that is separate from the IP routing table. • You can manage all Dell Networking products in-band via the front-end data ports through interfaces assigned an IP address as well. Accessing the System Remotely Configuring the system for remote access is a three-step process, as described in the following topics: 1.
PAGE 48
– mask: a subnet mask in /prefix-length format (/ xx). – gateway: the next hop for network traffic originating from the management port. Configuring a Username and Password To access the system remotely, configure a system username and password. To configure a system username and password, use the following command. • Configure a username and password to access the system remotely.
PAGE 49
Configuration File Management Files can be stored on and accessed from various storage media. Rename, delete, and copy files on the system from EXEC Privilege mode. Copy Files to and from the System The command syntax for copying files is similar to UNIX. The copy command uses the format copy source-file-url destination-file-url. NOTE: For a detailed description of the copy command, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Reference.

PAGE 53
View Configuration Files Configuration files have three commented lines at the beginning of the file, as shown in the following example, to help you track the last time any user made a change to the file, which user made the changes, and when the file was last saved to the startup-configuration.
PAGE 54
View Command History The command-history trace feature captures all commands entered by all users of the system with a time stamp and writes these messages to a dedicated trace log buffer. The system generates a trace message for each executed command. No password information is saved to the file. To view the command-history trace, use the show command-history command.
PAGE 55
However, these changes are backward-compatible and do not affect existing behavior; meaning, you can still use the ip http source- interface command to communicate with a particular interface even if no VRF is configured on that interface NOTE: If the HTTP service is not VRF-aware, then it uses the global routing table to perform the look-up. To enable an HTTP client to look up the VRF table corresponding to either management VRF or any nondefault VRF, use the ip http vrf command in CONFIGURATION mode.

• 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. • img-file: Enter the name of the Dell Networking software image file to validate Examples: Without Entering the Hash Value for Verification MD5 Dell# verify md5 flash://FTOS-SE-9.5.0.0.bin MD5 hash for FTOS-SE-9.5.0.0.bin: 275ceb73a4f3118e1d6bcf7d75753459 SHA256 Dell# verify sha256 flash://FTOS-SE-9.5.
PAGE 57
Management 4 This chapter describes the different protocols or services used to manage the Dell Networking system. Configuring Privilege Levels Privilege levels restrict access to commands based on user or terminal line. There are 16 privilege levels, of which three are pre-defined. The default privilege level is 1. Level Description Level 0 Access to the system begins at EXEC mode, and EXEC mode commands are limited to enable, disable, and exit.
PAGE 58
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.
PAGE 59

• Configure a privilege level for a user. CONFIGURATION mode username username privilege level Applying a Privilege Level to a Terminal Line To set a privilege level for a terminal line, use the following command. • Configure a privilege level for a user. CONFIGURATION mode username username privilege level NOTE: When you assign a privilege level between 2 and 15, access to the system begins at EXEC mode, but the prompt is hostname#, rather than hostname>.
PAGE 61
• Displaying Audit and Security Logs • Clearing Audit Logs Enabling Audit and Security Logs You enable audit and security logs to monitor configuration changes or determine if these changes affect the operation of the system in the network. You log audit and security events to a system log server, using the logging extended command in CONFIGURATION mode. Audit Logs The audit log contains configuration events and information.
PAGE 62
Displaying Audit and Security Logs To display audit logs, use the show logging auditlog command in Exec mode. To view these logs, you must first enable the logging extended command. Only the RBAC system administrator user role can view the audit logs. Only the RBAC security administrator and system administrator user role can view the security logs. If extended logging is disabled, you can only view system events, regardless of RBAC user role. To view security logs, use the show logging command.
PAGE 63
Figure 2. Setting Up a Secure Connection to a Syslog Server Pre-requisites To configure a secure connection from the switch to the syslog server: 1. On the switch, enable the SSH server Dell(conf)#ip ssh server enable 2. On the syslog server, create a reverse SSH tunnel from the syslog server to FTOS switch, using following syntax: ssh -R :: user@remote_host -nNf In the following example the syslog server IP address is 10.156.166.

CONFIGURATION mode • logging trap level 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.
PAGE 70
To view any changes made, use the show running-config logging command in EXEC privilege mode. Configuring a UNIX Logging Facility Level You can save system log messages with a UNIX system logging facility. To configure a UNIX logging facility level, use the following command. • Specify one of the following parameters.
PAGE 71
logging facility user logging source-interface Loopback 0 logging 10.10.10.4 Dell# Synchronizing Log Messages You can configure Dell Networking OS to filter and consolidate the system messages for a specific line by synchronizing the message output. Only the messages with a severity at or below the set level appear. This feature works on the terminal and console connections available on the system. 1. Enter LINE mode.
PAGE 72
– 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. To disable time stamping on syslog messages, use the no service timestamps [log | debug] command. File Transfer Services With Dell Networking OS, you can configure the system to transfer files over the network using the file transfer protocol (FTP).
PAGE 73
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. Specify a user name for all FTP users and configure either a plain text or encrypted password.
PAGE 74
• 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.

NOTE: The device allows 120 Telnet sessions per minute, allowing the login and logout of 10 Telnet sessions, 12 times in a minute. If the system reaches this non-practical limit, the Telnet service is stopped for 10 minutes. You can use console and SSH service to access the system during downtime. • Telnet to a device with an IPv4 or IPv6 address.
PAGE 78
Viewing the Configuration Lock Status If you attempt to enter CONFIGURATION mode when another user has locked it, you may view which user has control of CONFIGURATION mode using the show configuration lock command from EXEC Privilege mode. You can then send any user a message using the send command from EXEC Privilege mode. Alternatively, you can clear any line using the clear command from EXEC Privilege mode. If you clear a console session, the user is returned to EXEC mode.
PAGE 79
• 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 80
2.1X 5 802.1X is a port-based Network Access Control (PNAC) that provides an authentication mechanism to devices wishing to attach to a LAN or WLAN. 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 is verified (through a username and password, for example). 802.
PAGE 81
Figure 4. 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 82
3. The authenticator decapsulates the EAP response from the EAPOL frame, encapsulates it in a RADIUS Access-Request frame and forwards the frame to the authentication server. 4. The authentication server replies with an Access-Challenge frame. The Access-Challenge frame requests the supplicant to prove that it is who it claims to be, using a specified method (an EAPMethod). The challenge is translated and forwarded to the supplicant by the authenticator. 5.
PAGE 83
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 6. EAP Over RADIUS RADIUS Attributes for 802.1X Support Dell Networking systems include the following RADIUS attributes in all 802.
PAGE 84
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 7. 802.1X Enabled 1. Enable 802.1X globally.
PAGE 85
dot1x authentication 2. Enter INTERFACE mode on an interface or a range of interfaces. INTERFACE mode interface [range] 3. Enable 802.1X on the supplicant interface only. INTERFACE mode dot1x authentication Examples of Verifying that 802.1X is Enabled Globally and on an Interface Verify that 802.1X is enabled globally and at the interface level using the show running-config | find dot1x command from EXEC Privilege mode. In the following example, the bold lines show that 802.1X is enabled.
PAGE 86
Configuring Request Identity Re-Transmissions When the authenticator sends a Request Identity frame and the supplicant does not respond, the authenticator waits for 30 seconds and then re-transmits the frame.

To be able to connect such devices, they must be allowed access the network without compromising network security. The Guest VLAN 802.1X extension addresses this limitation with regard to non-802.1X capable devices and the Authentication-fail VLAN 802.1X extension addresses this limitation with regard to external users.

6 Access Control List (ACL) VLAN Groups and Content Addressable Memory (CAM) This section describes the access control list (ACL) virtual local area network (VLAN) group, and content addressable memory (CAM) enhancements. Optimizing CAM Utilization During the Attachment of ACLs to VLANs To minimize the number of entries in CAM, enable and configure the ACL CAM feature. Use this feature when you apply ACLs to a VLAN (or a set of VLANs) and when you apply ACLs to a set of ports.
PAGE 95
• The egress ACL is applied or removed from the group and the group contains VLAN members. • VLAN members are added or deleted from a VLAN, which itself is a group member. • A line card returns to the active state after going down and this line card contains a VLAN that is a member of an ACL group. • The ACL VLAN group is deleted and it contains VLAN members. The ACL manager does not notify the ACL agent in the following cases: • The ACL VLAN group is created.

Configuring ACL VLAN Groups and Configuring FP Blocks for VLAN Parameters This section describes how to optimize CAM blocks by configuring ACL VLAN groups that you can attach to VLAN interfaces. It also describes how to configure FP blocks for different VLAN operations.
PAGE 97

To reset the number of FP blocks to the default, use the no version of this command. By default, 0 groups are allocated for the ACL in VLAN contentaware processor (VCAP). ACL VLAN groups or CAM optimization is not enabled by default.

7 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 101
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 102
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 9 FP blocks. (There are 12 FP blocks, but System Flow requires three blocks that cannot be reallocated.) Enter the ipv6acl allocation as a factor of 3 (3, 6, 9). All other profile allocations can use either even or odd numbered ranges.
PAGE 103
To allocate the number of FP blocks for ACL VLAN optimization, enter the cam-acl-vlan vlanaclopt <0-2> command. After you configure ACL VLAN CAM, reboot the switch to enable CAM allocation for ACL VLAN optimization. To display the number of FP blocks currently allocated to different ACL VLAN services, enter the show cam-acl-vlan command. To display the amount of CAM space currently used and available for Layer 2 and Layer 3 ACLs on the switch, enter the show cam-usage command.

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 where class-maps with overlapping ACL rules are applied to different queues, use the order keyword to specify the order in which you want to apply ACL rules. The order can range from 0 to 254.
PAGE 105
• Configure a route map for route tagging (optional) Creating a Route Map Route maps, ACLs, and prefix lists are similar in composition because all three contain filters, but route map filters do not contain the permit and deny actions found in ACLs and prefix lists. Route map filters match certain routes and set or specific values. To create a route map, use the following command. • Create a route map and assign it a unique name. The optional permit and deny keywords are the actions of the route map.

CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode • set metric {+ | - | metric-value} Specify an OSPF or ISIS type for redistributed routes. CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode • set metric-type {external | internal | type-1 | type-2} Assign an IP address as the route’s next hop. CONFIG-ROUTE-MAP mode • set next-hop ip-address Assign an IPv6 address as the route’s next hop.
PAGE 110
Route maps add to that redistribution capability by allowing you to match specific routes and set or change more attributes when redistributing those routes. In the following example, the redistribute command calls the route map static ospf to redistribute only certain static routes into OSPF. According to the route map static ospf, only routes that have a next hop of Tengigabitethernet interface 1/1/1 and that have a metric of 255 are redistributed into the OSPF backbone area.

IP Fragment Handling Dell Networking OS supports a configurable option to explicitly deny IP fragmented packets, particularly second and subsequent packets. It extends the existing ACL command syntax with the fragments keyword for all Layer 3 rules applicable to all Layer protocols (permit/deny ip/tcp/udp/icmp). • Both standard and extended ACLs support IP fragments.
PAGE 112
Layer 4 ACL Rules Examples The following examples show the ACL commands for Layer 4 packet filtering. Permit an ACL line with L3 information only, and the fragments keyword is present: If a packet’s L3 information matches the L3 information in the ACL line, the packet's FO is checked. • If a packet's FO > 0, the packet is permitted. • If a packet's FO = 0, the next ACL entry is processed.
PAGE 113
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.

Configuring a Standard IP ACL Filter If you are creating a standard ACL with only one or two filters, you can let Dell Networking OS assign a sequence number based on the order in which the filters are configured. The software assigns filters in multiples of five. 1. Configure a standard IP ACL and assign it a unique name. CONFIGURATION mode ip access-list standard access-list-name 2.
PAGE 115
Configure an Extended IP ACL Extended IP ACLs filter on source and destination IP addresses, IP host addresses, TCP addresses, TCP host addresses, UDP addresses, and UDP host addresses. The traffic passes through the filter in the order of the filter’s sequence and hence you can configure the extended IP ACL by first entering IP ACCESS LIST mode, and then assigning a sequence number to the filter.
PAGE 116
CONFIG-EXT-NACL mode seq sequence-number {deny | permit} tcp {source mask | any | host ipaddress} [count [byte]] [order] [fragments] Example of the seq Command When you create the filters with a specific sequence number, you can create the filters in any order and the filters are placed in the correct order. NOTE: When assigning sequence numbers to filters, you may have to insert a new filter. To prevent reconfiguring multiple filters, assign sequence numbers in multiples of five or another number.

PAGE 118
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.

Counting ACL Hits You can view the number of packets matching the ACL by using the count option when creating ACL entries. 1. Create an ACL that uses rules with the count option. Refer to Configure a Standard IP ACL Filter. 2. Apply the ACL as an inbound or outbound ACL on an interface. 3.
PAGE 120
Configure Egress ACLs Egress ACLs are applied to line cards and affect the traffic leaving the system. Configuring egress ACLs onto physical interfaces protects the system infrastructure from attack — malicious and incidental — by explicitly allowing only authorized traffic. These system-wide ACLs eliminate the need to apply ACLs onto each interface and achieves the same results. By localizing target traffic, it is a simpler implementation. To restrict egress traffic, use an egress ACL.
PAGE 121
Applying Egress Layer 3 ACLs (Control-Plane) By default, packets originated from the system are not filtered by egress ACLs. For example, if you initiate a ping session from the system and apply an egress ACL to block this type of traffic on the interface, the ACL does not affect that ping traffic. The Control Plane Egress Layer 3 ACL feature enhances IP reachability debugging by implementing control-plane ACLs for CPU-generated and CPU-forwarded traffic.

Flow-Based Monitoring Support for ACLs Flow-based monitoring is supported on the 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.

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).

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.

8 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 135
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 9. BFD in IPv4 Packet Format Field Description Diagnostic Code The reason that the last session failed. State The current local session state.
PAGE 136
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 137
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 138
3. The active system receives the response from the passive system and changes its session state to Up. It then sends a control packet indicating this state change. This is the third and final part of the handshake. Now the discriminator values have been exchanged and the transmit intervals have been negotiated. 4. The passive system receives the control packet and changes its state to Up. Both systems agree that a session has been established.

receives a Down status notification from the remote system, the session state on the local system changes to Init. Figure 11. Session State Changes Important Points to Remember • Dell Networking OS supports 128 sessions per stack unit at 200 minimum transmit and receive intervals with a multiplier of 3, and 64 sessions at 100 minimum transmit and receive intervals with a multiplier of 4. • Enable BFD on both ends of a link. • Demand mode, authentication, and the Echo function are not supported.

• Configure BFD for OSPFv3 • Configure BFD for IS-IS • Configure BFD for BGP • Configure BFD for VRRP • Configuring Protocol Liveness • Configure BFD for Physical Ports Configuring BFD for physical ports is supported on the C-Series and E-Series platforms only. BFD on physical ports is useful when you do not enable the routing protocol. Without BFD, if the remote system fails, the local system does not remove the connected route until the first failed attempt to send a packet.
PAGE 141
Establishing a Session on Physical Ports To establish a session, enable BFD at the interface level on both ends of the link, as shown in the following illustration. The configuration parameters do not need to match. Figure 12. Establishing a BFD Session on Physical Ports 1. Enter interface mode. CONFIGURATION mode interface 2.

Establishing Sessions with OSPF Neighbors BFD sessions can be established with all OSPF neighbors at once or sessions can be established with all neighbors out of a specific interface. Sessions are only established when the OSPF adjacency is in the Full state. Figure 14.

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.
PAGE 153
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.
PAGE 154
neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} bfd NOTES: 6. • When you establish a BFD session with a specified BGP neighbor or peer group using the neighbor bfd command, the default BFD session parameters are used (interval: 100 milliseconds, min_rx: 100 milliseconds, multiplier: 3 packets, and role: active).

neighboring interface fails, the BFD agent on the line card notifies the BFD manager, which in turn notifies the VRRP protocol that a link state change occurred. Configuring BFD for VRRP is a three-step process: 1. Enable BFD globally. Refer to Enabling BFD Globally. 2. Establish VRRP BFD sessions with all VRRP-participating neighbors. 3. On the master router, establish a VRRP BFD sessions with the backup routers. Refer to Establishing Sessions with All VRRP Neighbors.
PAGE 160
Establishing VRRP Sessions on VRRP Neighbors The master router does not care about the state of the backup router, so it does not participate in any VRRP BFD sessions. VRRP BFD sessions on the backup router cannot change to the UP state. Configure the master router to establish an individual VRRP session the backup router. To establish a session with a particular VRRP neighbor, use the following command. • Establish a session with a particular VRRP neighbor.

Border Gateway Protocol IPv4 (BGPv4) 9 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 165
Figure 18. 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 166
Figure 19. 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 167
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 168
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 169
• 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 22. 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 173
Figure 23. 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).

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 176
• 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 8.
PAGE 177
AS4 Number Representation Dell Networking OS supports multiple representations of 4-byte AS numbers: asplain, asdot+, and asdot. NOTE: The ASDOT and ASDOT+ representations are supported only with the 4-Byte AS numbers feature. If 4-Byte AS numbers are not implemented, only ASPLAIN representation is supported. ASPLAIN is the default method the system uses. With the ASPLAIN notation, a 32-bit binary AS number is translated into a decimal value.

• High CPU utilization may be observed during an SNMP walk of a large BGP Loc-RIB. • To avoid SNMP timeouts with a large-scale configuration (large number of BGP neighbors and a large BGP Loc-RIB), Dell Networking recommends setting the timeout and retry count values to a relatively higher number. For example, t = 60 or r = 5. • To return all values on an snmpwalk for the f10BgpM2Peer sub-OID, use the -C c option, such as snmpwalk -v 2c -C c -c public.

Configuring Peer Groups To configure multiple BGP neighbors at one time, create and populate a BGP peer group. An advantage of peer groups is that members of a peer group inherit the configuration properties of the group and share same update policy. A maximum of 256 peer groups are allowed on the system. Create a peer group by assigning it a name, then adding members to the peer group. After you create a peer group, you can configure route policies for it.

To add an internal BGP (IBGP) neighbor, configure the as-number parameter with the same BGP asnumber configured in the router bgp as-number command. Examples of Viewing and Configuring Peer Groups After you create a peer group, you can use any of the commands beginning with the keyword neighbor to configure that peer group. When you add a peer to a peer group, it inherits all the peer group’s configured parameters.

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.

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

NOTE: You can create inbound and outbound policies. Each of the commands used for filtering has in and out parameters that you must apply. In Dell Networking OS, the order of preference varies depending on whether the attributes are applied for inbound updates or outbound updates.
PAGE 209
• out: apply the prefix list to outbound routes. As a reminder, the following are rules concerning prefix lists: • If the prefix list contains no filters, all routes are permitted. • If none of the routes match any of the filters in the prefix list, the route is denied. This action is called an implicit deny. (If you want to forward all routes that do not match the prefix list criteria, you must configure a prefix list filter to permit all routes.

Filtering BGP Routes Using AS-PATH Information To filter routes based on AS-PATH information, use these commands. 1. Create a AS-PATH ACL and assign it a name. CONFIGURATION mode ip as-path access-list as-path-name 2. Create a AS-PATH ACL filter with a deny or permit action. AS-PATH ACL mode {deny | permit} as-regular-expression 3.

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 212
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.

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 217
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.

Content Addressable Memory (CAM) 10 CAM is a type of memory that stores information in the form of a lookup table. On Dell Networking systems, CAM stores Layer 2 (L2) and Layer 3 (L3) forwarding information, access-lists (ACLs), flows, and routing policies. CAM Allocation CAM Allocation for Ingress To allocate the space for regions such has L2 ingress ACL, IPV4 ingress ACL, IPV6 ingress ACL, IPV4 QoS, L2 QoS, PBR, VRF ACL, and so forth, use the cam-acl command in CONFIGURATION mode.
PAGE 229
NOTE: When you reconfigure CAM allocation, use the nlbclusteracl number command to change the number of NLB ARP entries. The range is from 0 to 2. The default value is 0. At the default value of 0, eight NLB ARP entries are available for use. This platform supports upto 512 CAM entries. Select 1 to configure 256 entries. Select 2 to configure 512 entries.
PAGE 230
NOTE: Selecting default resets the CAM entries to the default settings. Select l2acl to allocate the desired space for all other regions. 2. Enter the number of FP blocks for each region.

Control Plane Policing (CoPP) 11 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 237
Figure 27. CoPP Implemented Versus CoPP Not Implemented Configure Control Plane Policing The system can process a maximum of 8500 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 238
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.

Data Center Bridging (DCB) 12 Data center bridging (DCB) refers to a set of enhancements to Ethernet local area networks used in data center environments, particularly with clustering and storage area networks. Ethernet Enhancements in Data Center Bridging The following section describes DCB.
PAGE 244
Traffic Description transport protocols (for example, TCP) for reliable data transmission with the associated cost of greater processing overhead and performance impact. Storage traffic Storage traffic based on Fibre Channel media uses the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) protocol for data transfer. This traffic typically consists of large data packets with a payload of 2K bytes that cannot recover from frame loss.
PAGE 245
Figure 28. Illustration of Traffic Congestion The system supports loading two DCB_Config files: • FCoE converged traffic with priority 3. In the Dell Networking OS, PFC is implemented as follows: • PFC is supported on specified 802.1p priority traffic (dot1p 0 to 7) and is configured per interface. However, only one lossless queue is supported on an interface: one for Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) converged traffic. Configure the same lossless queues on all ports.
PAGE 246
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 29. Enhanced Transmission Selection The following table lists the traffic groupings ETS uses to select multiprotocol traffic for transmission. Table 13. ETS Traffic Groupings Traffic Groupings Description Group ID A 4-bit identifier assigned to each priority group.
PAGE 247
• 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. The following LLDP TLVs are supported for DCB parameter exchange: PFC parameters PFC Configuration TLV and Application Priority Configuration TLV. ETS parameters ETS Configuration TLV and ETS Recommendation TLV.
PAGE 248
To enable DCB, enable the FCoE configuration. NOTE: Dell Networking OS Behavior: DCB is not supported if you enable link-level flow control on one or more interfaces. For more information, refer to Ethernet Pause Frames. DCB Maps and its Attributes This topic contains the following sections that describe how to configure a DCB map, apply the configured DCB map to a port, configure PFC without a DCB map, and configure lossless queues.
PAGE 249
Data Center Bridging: Default Configuration Before you configure PFC and ETS on a switch see the priority group setting taken into account the following default settings: DCB is enabled. PFC and ETS are globally enabled by default. The default dot1p priority-queue assignments are applied as follows: Dell(conf)#do show qos dot1p-queue-mapping Dot1p Priority : 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Queue : 1 0 2 3 4 5 6 7 PFC is not applied on specific dot1p priorities.
PAGE 250
Set the bandwidth in percentage. The percentage range is from 1 to 100% in units of 1%. Committed and peak bandwidth is in megabits per second. The range is from 0 to 40000. Committed and peak burst size is in kilobytes. Default is 50. The range is from 0 to 10000. The pfc on command enables priority-based flow control. 3. 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.
PAGE 251
When you apply or remove a DCB input policy from an interface, one or two CRC errors are expected to be noticed on the ingress ports for each removal or attachment of the policy. This behavior occurs because the port is brought down when PFC is configured.
PAGE 252
Applying a DCB Map on a Port When you apply a DCB map with PFC enabled on a switch interface, a memory buffer for PFC-enabled priority traffic is automatically allocated. The buffer size is allocated according to the number of PFCenabled priorities in the assigned map. To apply a DCB map to an Ethernet port, follow these steps: Table 14. DCB Map to an Ethernet Port Step Task Command Command Mode 1 Enter interface configuration mode on an Ethernet port.
PAGE 253
Step Task Command Command Mode Maximum number of lossless queues supported on an Ethernet port: 2. Separate priority values with a comma. Specify a priority range with a dash, for example: pfc priority 3,5-7 1. You cannot configure PFC using the pfc priority command on an interface on which a DCB map has been applied or which is already configured for lossless queues (pfc no-drop queues command).
PAGE 254
allocated for each priority and the pause or resume thresholds for the buffer. This method of configuration enables you to effectively manage and administer the behavior of lossless queues. Although the system contains 4 MB of space for shared buffers, a minimum guaranteed buffer is provided to all the internal and external ports in the system for both unicast and multicast traffic. This minimum guaranteed buffer reduces the total available shared buffer to 3456 KB.
PAGE 255
The packets come in with packet-dot1p 2 alone use Q1 (as per dot1p to Queue classification – Table 2) on the egress port. • When Peer sends a PFC message for Priority 2, based on above PRIO2COS table (TABLE 2), Queue 1 is halted. • Queue 1 starts buffering the packets with Dot1p 2. This causes PG6 buffer counter to increase on the ingress, since P-dot1p 2 is mapped to PG6. • As the PG6 watermark threshold is reached, PFC generats for dot1p 2.
PAGE 256
The SNMP support for monitoring PFC and BST counters and statistics is introduced in Dell Networking OS 9.3(0.1). The enhancement is made on F10-FPSTATS MIB with additional tables to display the PFC and BST counters and statistics. The following new tables are added in F10-FPSTATS MIB in Dell Networking OS 9.3(0.
PAGE 257
PRIORITY to PG mapping (PRIO2PG) is on the ingress for each port. By default, all priorities are mapped to PG7. A priority for which PFC has to be generated is assigned to a PG other than PG7 (say PG6) and buffer watermark is set on PG6 so as to generate PFC. In ingress, the buffers are accounted at per PG basis and would indicate the number of the packets that has ingress this port PG but still queued up in egress pipeline. However, there is no direct mapping between the PG and Queue.
PAGE 258
The packets that come in with packet-dot1p 2 alone will use Q1 (as per dot1p to Queue classification – Table 2) on the egress port. • When Peer sends a PFC message for Priority 2, based on above PRIO2COS table (TABLE 2), Queue 1 is halted. • Queue 1 starts buffering the packets with Dot1p 2. This causes PG6 buffer counter to increase on the ingress, since P-dot1p 2 is mapped to PG6. • As the PG6 watermark threshold is reached, PFC will be generated for dot1p 2.
PAGE 259
Committed and peak burst size is in kilobytes. Default is 50. The range is from 0 to 10000. 3. Configure the 802.1p priorities for the traffic on which you want to apply an ETS output policy. PRIORITY-GROUP mode priority-list value The range is from 0 to 7. The default is none. Separate priority values with a comma. Specify a priority range with a dash. For example, priority-list 3,5-7. 4. Exit priority-group configuration mode. PRIORITY-GROUP mode exit 5.
PAGE 260
• ETS TLVs are supported in DCBx versions CEE and IEEE2.5. • The DCBx port-role configurations determine the ETS operational parameters (refer to Configure a DCBx Operation). • ETS configurations received from TLVs from a peer are validated. • If there is a hardware limitation or TLV error: – DCBx operation on an ETS port goes down. – New ETS configurations are ignored and existing ETS configurations are reset to the default ETS settings.
PAGE 261
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 262
Priority group 2 Assigns traffic to one priority queue with 30% of the link bandwidth. Priority group 3 Assigns traffic to two priority queues with 50% of the link bandwidth and strictpriority scheduling.
PAGE 263
DCBx is a prerequisite for using DCB features, such as priority-based flow control (PFC) and enhanced traffic selection (ETS), to exchange link-level configurations in a converged Ethernet environment. DCBx is also deployed in topologies that support lossless operation for FCoE traffic. In these scenarios, all network devices are DCBx-enabled (DCBx is enabled end-to-end).
PAGE 264
– On a DCBx port in an auto-upstream role, the PFC and application priority TLVs are enabled. ETS recommend TLVs are disabled and ETS configuration TLVs are enabled. Auto-downstream The port advertises its own configuration to DCBx peers but is not willing to receive remote peer configuration. The port always accepts internally propagated configurations from a configuration source.
PAGE 265
The default for the DCBx port role is manual. NOTE: On a DCBx port, application priority TLV advertisements are handled as follows: • The application priority TLV is transmitted only if the priorities in the advertisement match the configured PFC priorities on the port. • On auto-upstream and auto-downstream ports: – If a configuration source is elected, the ports send an application priority TLV based on the application priority TLV received on the configuration-source port.
PAGE 266
– The switch is capable of supporting the received DCB configuration values through either a symmetric or asymmetric parameter exchange. A newly elected configuration source propagates configuration changes received from a peer to the other auto-configuration ports. Ports receiving auto-configuration information from the configuration source ignore their current settings and use the configuration source information.
PAGE 267
DCBx Example The following figure shows how to use DCBx. The external 40GbE ports on the base module (ports 33 and 37) of two switches are used for uplinks configured as DCBx auto-upstream ports. The device is connected to third-party, top-of-rack (ToR) switches through uplinks. The ToR switches are part of a Fibre Channel storage network. The internal ports (ports 1-32) connected to the 10GbE backplane are configured as auto-downstream ports. Figure 31.

NOTE: Dell Networking does not recommend mapping all ingress traffic to a single queue when using PFC and ETS. However, Dell Networking does recommend using Ingress traffic classification using the service-class dynamic dot1p command (honor dot1p) on all DCB-enabled interfaces.

Figure 34. 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 289
The following table lists the key responsibilities of DHCP servers. Table 24. DHCP Server Responsibilities DHCP Server Responsibilities Description Address Storage and Management DHCP servers are the owners of the addresses used by DHCP clients.The server stores the addresses and manages their use, keeping track of which addresses have been allocated and which are still available.

DHCP mode show config After an IP address is leased to a client, only that client may release the address. Dell Networking OS performs a IP + MAC source address validation to ensure that no client can release another clients address.

Specifying a Default Gateway The IP address of the default router should be on the same subnet as the client. To specify a default gateway, follow this step. • Specify default gateway(s) for the clients on the subnet, in order of preference. DHCP default-router address Configure a Method of Hostname Resolution Dell systems are capable of providing DHCP clients with parameters for two methods of hostname resolution—using DNS or NetBIOS WINS.

To disable BMP in EXEC mode, use the stop bmp command. After BMP stops, the switch acts as a DHCP client. • Acquire a dynamic IP address from a DHCP client is for a limited period or until the client releases the address. • A DHCP server manages and assigns IP addresses to clients from an address pool stored on the server.
PAGE 294
To manually configure a static IP address on an interface, use the ip address command. A prompt displays to release an existing dynamically acquired IP address. If you confirm, the ability to receive a DHCP server-assigned IP address is removed. To enable acquiring a dynamic IP address from a DHCP server on an interface configured with a static IP address, use the ip address dhcp command. A prompt displays to confirm the IP address reconfiguration.
PAGE 295
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 296
• If you enable DHCP snooping globally on a switch and you enable a DHCP client on an interface, the trust port, source MAC address, and snooping table validations are not performed on the interface by DHCP snooping for packets destined to the DHCP client daemon. The following criteria determine packets destined for the DHCP client: – DHCP is enabled on the interface. – The user data protocol (UDP) destination port in the packet is 68.

NOTE: Dynamic ARP inspection (DAI) uses entries in the L2SysFlow CAM region, a sub-region of SystemFlow. One CAM entry is required for every DAI-enabled VLAN. You can enable DAI on up to 16 VLANs on a system. However, the ExaScale default CAM profile allocates only nine entries to the L2SysFlow region for DAI. You can configure 10 to 16 DAI-enabled VLANs by allocating more CAM space to the L2SysFlow region before enabling DAI. SystemFlow has 102 entries by default.

14 Equal Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) This chapter describes configuring ECMP. This chapter describes configuring ECMP. ECMP for Flow-Based Affinity ECMP for flow-based affinity includes link bundle monitoring. Configuring the Hash Algorithm TeraScale has one algorithm that is used for link aggregation groups (LAGs), ECMP, and NH-ECMP, and ExaScale can use three different algorithms for each of these features. To adjust the ExaScale behavior to match TeraScale, use the following command.
PAGE 307
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 308
For link bundle monitoring with ECMP, to enable the link bundle monitoring feature, use the ecmpgroup command. In the following example, the ecmp-group with id 2, enabled for link bundle monitoring is user configured. This is different from the ecmp-group index 2 that is created by configuring routes and is automatically generated. These two ecmp-groups are not related in any way.

FCoE Transit 15 The Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) Transit feature is supported on Ethernet interfaces. When you enable the switch for FCoE transit, the switch functions as a FIP snooping bridge. NOTE: FIP snooping is not supported on Fibre Channel interfaces or in a switch stack. Fibre Channel over Ethernet FCoE provides a converged Ethernet network that allows the combination of storage-area network (SAN) and LAN traffic on a Layer 2 link by encapsulating Fibre Channel data into Ethernet frames.

requirement for point-to-point connections by creating a unique virtual link for each connection between an FCoE end-device and an FCF via a transit switch. FIP provides functionality for discovering and logging into an FCF. After discovering and logging in, FIP allows FCoE traffic to be sent and received between FCoE end-devices (ENodes) and the FCF. FIP uses its own EtherType and frame format. The following illustration shows the communication that occurs between an ENode server and an FCoE switch (FCF).
PAGE 313
Figure 35. 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 314
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. The switch operates as a lossless FIP snooping bridge to transparently forward FCoE frames between the ENode servers and the FCF switch. Figure 36. FIP Snooping on a Dell Networking Switch The following sections describe how to configure the FIP snooping feature on a switch: • Allocate CAM resources for FCoE.
PAGE 315
• To provide more port security on ports that are directly connected to an FCF and have links to other FIP snooping bridges, set the FCF or Bridge-to-Bridge Port modes. • To ensure that they are operationally active, check FIP snooping-enabled VLANs. • Process FIP VLAN discovery requests and responses, advertisements, solicitations, FLOGI/FDISC requests and responses, FLOGO requests and responses, keep-alive packets, and clear virtual-link messages.
PAGE 316
• configure tagged VLAN membership on each FIP snooping port that sends and receives FCoE traffic and has links with an FCF, ENode server, or another FIP snooping bridge (use the tagged port-type slot/port command). The default VLAN membership of the port must continue to operate with untagged frames. FIP snooping is not supported on a port that is configured for non-default untagged VLAN membership.
PAGE 317
converged network adapter (CNA) or FCF port and compatible DCB configurations are synchronized. By default, all FCoE and FIP frames are dropped unless specifically permitted by existing FIP snoopinggenerated ACLs. You can reconfigure any of the FIP snooping settings. If you disable FCoE transit, FIP and FCoE traffic are handled as normal Ethernet frames and no FIP snooping ACLs are generated.
PAGE 318
Impact on Other Software Features When you enable FIP snooping on a switch, other software features are impacted. The following table lists the impact of FIP snooping. Table 27.

Flex Hash and Optimized Boot-Up 16 This chapter describes the Flex Hash and fast-boot enhancements. Flex Hash Capability Overview The flex hash functionality enables you to configure a packet search key and matches packets based on the search key. When a packet matches the search key, two 16-bit hash fields are extracted from the start of the L4 header and provided as inputs (bins 2 and 3) for RTAG7 hash computation.
PAGE 328
When load balancing RRoCE packets using flex hash is enabled, the show ip flow command is disabled. Similarly, when the show ip flow command is in use (ingress port-based load balancing is disabled), the hashing of RRoCE packets is disabled. Flex hash APIs do not mask out unwanted byte values after extraction of the data from the Layer 4 headers for the offset value. 2.

While the above change will ensure that at least one path to each destination gets into the FIB as quickly as possible, it does prevent additional paths from being used even if they are available. This downside has been deemed to be acceptable. RDMA Over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) Overview This functionality is supported on the platform. RDMA is a technology that a virtual machine (VM) uses to directly transfer information to the memory of another VM, thus enabling VMs to be connected to storage networks.

VLAN ID is appended to the packet and transmitted out of the interface as a tagged packet with the dot1Q value preserved. To provide lossless service for RRoCE, the QoS service policy must be configured in the ingress and egress directions on lite sub interfaces.

Force10 Resilient Ring Protocol (FRRP) 17 FRRP provides fast network convergence to Layer 2 switches interconnected in a ring topology, such as a metropolitan area network (MAN) or large campuses. FRRP is similar to what can be achieved with the spanning tree protocol (STP), though even with optimizations, STP can take up to 50 seconds to converge (depending on the size of network and node of failure) and may require 4 to 5 seconds to reconverge.
PAGE 336
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 337
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. Member VLAN Spanning Two Rings Connected by One Switch A member VLAN can span two rings interconnected by a common switch, in a figure-eight style topology.
PAGE 338
Figure 38. Example of Multiple Rings Connected by Single Switch Important FRRP Points FRRP provides a convergence time that can generally range between 150ms and 1500ms for Layer 2 networks. The Master node originates a high-speed frame that circulates around the ring. This frame, appropriately, sets up or breaks down the ring. • The Master node transmits ring status check frames at specified intervals. • You can run multiple physical rings on the same switch.
PAGE 339
• STP disabled on ring interfaces. • Master node secondary port is in blocking state during Normal operation. • Ring health frames (RHF) – Hello RHF: sent at 500ms (hello interval); Only the Master node transmits and processes these. – Topology Change RHF: triggered updates; processed at all nodes. Important FRRP Concepts The following table lists some important FRRP concepts.
PAGE 340
Concept Explanation VLAN, and Master and Transit node information must be configured for the ring to be up. • Ring-Up — Ring is up and operational. • Ring-Down — Ring is broken or not set up. Ring Health-Check The Master node generates two types of RHFs. RHFs never loop the ring because Frame (RHF) they terminate at the Master node’s secondary port. • Hello RHF (HRHF) — These frames are processed only on the Master node’s Secondary port. The Transit nodes pass the HRHF through without processing it.

18 GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) The generic attribute registration protocol (GARP) VLAN registration protocol (GVRP), defined by the IEEE 802.1q specification, is a Layer 2 network protocol that provides for automatic VLAN configuration of switches. GVRP-compliant switches use GARP to register and de-register attribute values, such as VLAN IDs, with each other.
PAGE 348
Configure GVRP To begin, enable GVRP. To facilitate GVRP communications, enable GVRP globally on each switch. Then, GVRP configuration is per interface on a switch-by-switch basis. Enable GVRP on each port that connects to a switch where you want GVRP information exchanged. In the following example, GVRP is configured on VLAN trunk ports. Figure 39. Global GVRP Configuration Example Basic GVRP configuration is a two-step process: 1. Enabling GVRP Globally 2.
PAGE 349
Enabling GVRP Globally To configure GVRP globally, use the following command. • Enable GVRP for the entire switch. CONFIGURATION mode gvrp enable Example of Configuring GVRP Dell(conf)#protocol gvrp Dell(config-gvrp)#no disable Dell(config-gvrp)#show config ! protocol gvrp no disable Dell(config-gvrp)# To inspect the global configuration, use the show gvrp brief command. Enabling GVRP on a Layer 2 Interface To enable GVRP on a Layer 2 interface, use the following command.
PAGE 350
• Forbidden Mode — Disables the port to dynamically register VLANs and to propagate VLAN information except information about VLAN 1. A port with forbidden registration type thus allows only VLAN 1 to pass through even though the PDU carries information for more VLANs. Therefore, if you do not want the interface to advertise or learn about particular VLANS, set the interface to the registration mode of FORBIDDEN.

Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) 19 Internet group management protocol (IGMP) is a Layer 3 multicast protocol that hosts use to join or leave a multicast group. Multicast is premised on identifying many hosts by a single destination IP address; hosts represented by the same IP address are a multicast group. Multicast routing protocols (such as protocol-independent multicast [PIM]) use the information in IGMP messages to discover which groups are active and to populate the multicast routing table.
PAGE 353
Figure 40. 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 354
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 355
Figure 42. 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.

• Designating a Multicast Router Interface Viewing IGMP Enabled Interfaces Interfaces that are enabled with PIM-SM are automatically enabled with IGMP. To view IGMP-enabled interfaces, use the following command. • View IGMP-enabled interfaces. EXEC Privilege mode show ip igmp interface Example of the show ip igmp interface Command Dell#show ip igmp interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/10/1 Inbound IGMP access group is not set Internet address is 165.87.34.

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). For information about VLT configurations, refer to Virtual Link Trunking (VLT). • Enable IGMP snooping on a switch. CONFIGURATION mode • ip igmp snooping enable View the configuration. CONFIGURATION mode • show running-config Disable snooping on a VLAN.
PAGE 362
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. Disable Layer 3 multicast (no ip multicast-routing) in order to disable multicast flooding.
PAGE 363
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. The amount of time that the querier waits to receive a response to the initial query before sending a second one is the last member query interval (LMQI).

management port. In this chapter, all the references to traffic indicate switch-initiated traffic and responses to switch-destined traffic with management port IP address as the source IP address. In customer deployment topologies, it might be required that the traffic for certain management applications needs to exit out of the management port only. You can use EIS to control and the traffic can exit out of any port based on the route lookup in the IP stack.
PAGE 365
Application Name Port Number Client Server 8888 secure HTTP server port for confd application If you configure a source interface is for any EIS management application, EIS might not coexist with that interface and the behavior is undefined in such a case. You can configure the source interface for the following applications: FTP, ICMP (ping and traceroute utilities), NTP, RADIUS, TACACS, Telnet, TFTP, syslog, and SNMP traps.
PAGE 366
• If the management port is down or route lookup fails in the management EIS routing table, packets are dropped. • For all non-management applications, traffic exits out of either front-end data port or management port based on route lookup in default routing table. • Ping and traceroute are always non-management applications and route lookup for these applications is done in the default routing table only.
PAGE 367
• To ensure that protocol separation is done only for switch initiated traffic where the application acts as client, only the destination TCP/UDP port is compared and not the source TCP/UDP port. The source TCP/UDP port becomes a known port number when the box acts as server. • TFTP is an exception to the preceding logic. • For TFTP, data transfer is initiated on port 69, but the data transfer ports are chosen independently by the sender and receiver during initialization of the connection.
PAGE 368
• Whenever IP address is assigned to the management port, it is stored in a global variable in the IP stack, which is used for comparison with the source IP address of the packet. • Rest of the response traffic is handled as per existing behavior by doing route lookup in the default routing table. So if the traffic is destined to the front-end port IP address, the response is sent out by doing a route lookup in the default routing table, which is an existing behavior.
PAGE 369
Traffic type / Application type Switch initiated traffic Switch-destined traffic Transit Traffic management port is down or route lookup fails, packets are dropped Non-EIS management application Front-end default route will take higher precedence over management default route and SSH session to an unknown destination uses the front-end default route only. No change in the existing behavior.
PAGE 370
Non-management application traffic exits out of either front-end data port or management port based on routing table. If there is a default route on both the management and front-end data port, the default for the data port is preferred route.
PAGE 371
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 372
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.

Interfaces 20 This chapter describes interface types, both physical and logical, and how to configure them with Dell Networking Operating System (OS). The system supports 10–Gigabit, 25–Gigabit, 40–Gigbit, 50–Gigabit, and 100–Gigabit QSFP 28 interfaces. NOTE: Only Dell-qualified optics are supported on these interfaces. Non-Dell optics for 40–Gigbit, 25–Gigabit, 50–Gigabit, and 100–Gigabit are set to error-disabled state.
PAGE 374
Interface Types The following table describes different interface types. Table 37.

PAGE 376
To determine which physical interfaces are available, use the show running-config command in EXEC mode. This command displays all physical interfaces available on the system.
PAGE 377
Stack-unit interfaces support Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic over the 10-Gigabit Ethernet , 25–Gigabit Ethernet, 40–Gigabit Ethernet, 50–Gigabit Ethernet, and 100–Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. These interfaces can also become part of virtual interfaces such as virtual local area networks (VLANs) or port channels. For more information about VLANs, refer to Bulk Configuration. For more information on port channels, refer to Port Channel Interfaces.
PAGE 378
Configuring Layer 2 (Data Link) Mode Do not configure switching or Layer 2 protocols such as spanning tree protocol (STP) on an interface unless the interface has been set to Layer 2 mode. To set Layer 2 data transmissions through an individual interface, use the following command. • Enable Layer 2 data transmissions through an individual interface.
PAGE 379
Example of Error Due to Issuing a Layer 3 Command on a Layer 2 Interface If an interface is in the incorrect layer mode for a given command, an error message is displayed (shown in bold). In the following example, the ip address command triggered an error message because the interface is in Layer 2 mode and the ip address command is a Layer 3 command only. Dell(conf-if)#show config ! interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/2/1 no ip address switchport no shutdown Dell(conf-if)#ip address 10.10.1.
PAGE 380
ICMP redirects are not sent ICMP unreachables are not sent Egress Interface Selection (EIS) EIS allows you to isolate the management and front-end port domains by preventing switch-initiated traffic routing between the two domains. This feature provides additional security by preventing flooding attacks on front-end ports. The following protocols support EIS: DNS, FTP, NTP, RADIUS, sFlow, SNMP, SSH, Syslog, TACACS, Telnet, and TFTP. This feature does not support sFlow on stacked units.
PAGE 381
Management Interfaces The system supports the Management Ethernet interface as well as the standard interface on any port. You can use either method to connect to the system. Configuring Management Interfaces The dedicated Management interface provides management access to the system. You can configure this interface using the CLI, but the configuration options on this interface are limited.
PAGE 382
Example of the show interface and show ip route Commands To display the configuration for a given port, use the show interface command in EXEC Privilege mode, as shown in the following example. To display the routing table, use the show ip route command in EXEC Privilege mode.
PAGE 383
ip address ip-address mask [secondary] – ip-address mask: enter an address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D). The mask must be in slash format (/24). – secondary: the IP address is the interface’s backup IP address. You can configure up to eight secondary IP addresses. Example of a Configuration for a VLAN Participating in an OSPF Process interface Vlan 10 ip address 1.1.1.
PAGE 384
The only configurable command in INTERFACE mode of the Null interface is the ip unreachable command. Port Channel Interfaces Port channel interfaces support link aggregation, as described in IEEE Standard 802.3ad. This section covers the following topics: • • • • Port Channel Definition and Standards Port Channel Benefits Port Channel Implementation Configuration Tasks for Port Channel Interfaces Port Channel Definition and Standards Link aggregation is defined by IEEE 802.
PAGE 385
Each port channel must contain interfaces of the same interface type/speed. Port channels can contain a mix of 1G/10G/25G/40G/50G/100G. The interface speed that the port channel uses is determined by the first port channel member that is physically up. Dell Networking OS disables the interfaces that do not match the interface speed that the first channel member sets.
PAGE 386
Creating a Port Channel You can create up to 128 port channels with up to 16 port members per group on the platform. To configure a port channel, use the following commands. 1. Create a port channel. CONFIGURATION mode interface port-channel id-number 2. Ensure that the port channel is active. INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode no shutdown After you enable the port channel, you can place it in Layer 2 or Layer 3 mode.
PAGE 387

INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode show config Examples of the show interfaces port-channel Commands To view the port channel’s status and channel members in a tabular format, use the show interfaces port-channel brief command in EXEC Privilege mode, as shown in the following example.
PAGE 388
As soon as a physical interface is added to a port channel, the properties of the port channel determine the properties of the physical interface. The configuration and status of the port channel are also applied to the physical interfaces within the port channel. For example, if the port channel is in Layer 2 mode, you cannot add an IP address or a static MAC address to an interface that is part of that port channel.
PAGE 389
shutdown Dell(conf-if-po-3)# Configuring the Minimum Oper Up Links in a Port Channel You can configure the minimum links in a port channel (LAG) that must be in “oper up” status to consider the port channel to be in “oper up” status. To set the “oper up” status of your links, use the following command. • Enter the number of links in a LAG that must be in “oper up” status. INTERFACE mode minimum-links number The default is 1.
PAGE 390
Configuring VLAN Tags for Member Interfaces To configure and verify VLAN tags for individual members of a port channel, perform the following: 1. Configure VLAN membership on individual ports INTERFACE mode Dell(conf-if)#vlan tagged 2,3-4 2. Use the switchport command in INTERFACE mode to enable Layer 2 data transmissions through an individual interface INTERFACE mode Dell(conf-if)#switchport 3. Verify the manually configured VLAN membership (show interfaces switchport interface command).

• no interface portchannel channel-number Disable a port channel. shutdown When you disable a port channel, all interfaces within the port channel are operationally down also. Load Balancing Through Port Channels Dell Networking OS uses hash algorithms for distributing traffic evenly over channel members in a port channel (LAG). The hash algorithm distributes traffic among Equal Cost Multi-path (ECMP) paths and LAG members. The distribution is based on a flow, except for packet-based hashing.
PAGE 392
Changing the Hash Algorithm The load-balance command selects the hash criteria applied to port channels. If you do not obtain even distribution with the load-balance command, you can use the hashalgorithm command to select the hash scheme for LAG, ECMP and NH-ECMP. You can rotate or shift the 12–bit Lag Hash until the desired hash is achieved. The nh-ecmp option allows you to change the hash value for recursive ECMP routes independently of non-recursive ECMP routes.
PAGE 393
• crc32MSB — uses MSB 16 bits of computed CRC32(default) • crc-upper — uses the upper 32 bits of the hash key to compute the egress port. • dest-ip — uses destination IP address as part of the hash key. • lsb — uses the least significant bit of the hash key to compute the egress port.

Bulk Configuration Examples Use the interface range command for bulk configuration. • Create a Single-Range • Create a Multiple-Range • Exclude Duplicate Entries • Exclude a Smaller Port Range • Overlap Port Ranges • Commas • Add Ranges Create a Single-Range The following is an example of a single range.
PAGE 395
Overlap Port Ranges The following is an example showing how the interface-range prompt extends a port range from the smallest start port number to the largest end port number when port ranges overlap. handles overlapping port ranges.
PAGE 396
Choosing an Interface-Range Macro To use an interface-range macro, use the following command. • Selects the interfaces range to be configured using the values saved in a named interface-range macro.

unreachable messages through the ip unreachable command in Interface mode. When a ping or traceroute packet from an endpoint or a device arrives at the null 0 interface configured with a static route, it is discarded. In such cases, you can configure Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) unreachable messages to be sent to the transmitting device.
PAGE 419
Enabling Directed Broadcast By default, Dell Networking OS drops directed broadcast packets destined for an interface. This default setting provides some protection against denial of service (DoS) attacks. To enable Dell Networking OS to receive directed broadcasts, use the following command. • Enable directed broadcast.

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 423

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 45.

In the following illustration, Packet 1 has a destination IP address that matches the configured broadcast address of VLAN 100 and 101. If you enabled UDP helper and the UDP port number matches, the packet is flooded on both VLANs with an unchanged destination address. Packet 2 is sent from a host on VLAN 101.

IPv6 Routing 22 Internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) routing is the successor to IPv4. Due to the rapid growth in internet users and IP addresses, IPv4 is reaching its maximum usage. IPv6 will eventually replace IPv4 usage to allow for the constant expansion. This chapter provides a brief description of the differences between IPv4 and IPv6, and the Dell Networking support of IPv6. This chapter is not intended to be a comprehensive description of IPv6.
PAGE 432
• Prefix Renumbering — Useful in transparent renumbering of hosts in the network when an organization changes its service provider. NOTE: As an alternative to stateless autoconfiguration, network hosts can obtain their IPv6 addresses using the dynamic host control protocol (DHCP) servers via stateful auto-configuration. NOTE: Dell Networking OS provides the flexibility to add prefixes on Router Advertisements (RA) to advertise responses to Router Solicitations (RS).
PAGE 433
Longest Prefix Match (LPM) Table and IPv6 /65 – /128 support Two partitions are available. • Partition I with IPv6 /65 – /128 route prefix. Doesn’t support IPv4 entries in the current release. • Partition II with IPv6 0/0 – /64 route prefix and IPv4 0/0 -0/32 route prefix entries. • Number of entries in Partition II will be reduced based on the number of entries configured in Partition I. • Partitioning will be applied well before the system initialization. This will be done using the NVRAM.
PAGE 434
The optimized booting functionality does not use Openflow and therefore SDN support is not available. LPM partitioning might have a slight impact on the number of SDN-programmed L3 entries because the LPM space becomes reduced. IPv6 Header Fields The 40 bytes of the IPv6 header are ordered, as shown in the following illustration. Figure 50. IPv6 Header Fields Version (4 bits) The Version field always contains the number 6, referring to the packet’s IP version.
PAGE 435
protocol (TCP) or user datagram protocol (UDP) header, the value in this field is the same as for IPv4. The Extension header is located between the IP header and the TCP or UDP header. The following lists the Next Header field values.
PAGE 436
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.
PAGE 437
reduced to two colons, as long as there is only one double colon used in an address. 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.
PAGE 438
ICMPv6 ICMP for IPv6 combines the roles of ICMP, IGMP and ARP in IPv4. Like IPv4, it provides functions for reporting delivery and forwarding errors, and provides a simple echo service for troubleshooting. The Dell Networking OS implementation of ICMPv6 is based on RFC 4443. Generally, ICMPv6 uses two message types: • Error reporting messages indicate when the forwarding or delivery of the packet failed at the destination or intermediate node.
PAGE 439
IPv6 Neighbor Discovery The IPv6 neighbor discovery protocol (NDP) is a top-level protocol for neighbor discovery on an IPv6 network. In place of address resolution protocol (ARP), NDP uses “Neighbor Solicitation” and “Neighbor Advertisement” ICMPv6 messages for determining relationships between neighboring nodes. 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 440
Configuring the IPv6 Recursive DNS Server You can configure up to four Recursive DNS Server (RDNSS) addresses to be distributed via IPv6 router advertisements to an IPv6 device, using the ipv6 nd dns-server ipv6-RDNSS-address {lifetime | infinite} command in INTERFACE CONFIG mode. The lifetime parameter configures the amount of time the IPv6 host can use the IPv6 RDNSS address for name resolution. The lifetime range is 0 to 4294967295 seconds.
PAGE 441
dns-server=3000::0001, lifetime=1 sec dns-server=2000::0001, lifetime=0 sec The last 3 lines indicate that the IPv6 RDNSS information was configured correctly. dns-server=1000::0001, lifetime=1 sec dns-server=3000::0001, lifetime=1 sec dns-server=2000::0001, lifetime=0 sec If the DNS server information is not displayed, verify that the IPv6 recursive DNS server configuration was configured on the correct interface.

Inbound SSH supports accessing the system through the management interface as well as through a physical Layer 3 interface.

Intermediate System to Intermediate System 23 The intermediate system to intermediate system (IS-IS) protocol that uses a shortest-path-first algorithm. Dell Networking supports both IPv4 and IPv6 versions of IS-IS. IS-IS Protocol Overview The IS-IS protocol, developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), is an interior gateway protocol (IGP) that uses a shortest-path-first algorithm.

• • system address — the router’s MAC address. N-selector — this is always 0. The following illustration is an example of the ISO-style address to show the address format IS-IS uses. In this example, the first five bytes (47.0005.0001) are the area address. The system portion is 000c.000a. 4321 and the last byte is always 0. Figure 53. ISO Address Format Multi-Topology IS-IS Multi-topology IS-IS (MT IS-IS) allows you to create multiple IS-IS topologies on a single router with separate databases.
PAGE 453
Interface Support MT IS-IS is supported on physical Ethernet interfaces, physical synchronous optical network technologies (SONET) interfaces, port-channel interfaces (static and dynamic using LACP), and virtual local area network (VLAN) interfaces. Adjacencies Adjacencies on point-to-point interfaces are formed as usual, where IS-IS routers do not implement MT extensions.
PAGE 454
• The T3 timer sets the overall wait time after which the router determines that it has failed to achieve database synchronization (by setting the overload bit in its own LSP). You can base this timer on adjacency settings with the value derived from adjacent routers that are engaged in graceful restart recovery (the minimum of all the Remaining Time values advertised by the neighbors) or by setting a specific amount of time manually.

IS-IS Parameter Default Value Circuit Type Level 1 and Level 2 IS Type Level 1 and Level 2 Equal Cost Multi Paths 16 Configuration Information To use IS-IS, you must configure and enable IS-IS in two or three modes: CONFIGURATION ROUTER ISIS, CONFIGURATION INTERFACE, and ( when configuring for IPv6) ADDRESS-FAMILY mode. Commands in ROUTER ISIS mode configure IS-IS globally, while commands executed in INTERFACE mode enable and configure IS-IS features on that interface only.
PAGE 456
To configure IS-IS globally, use the following commands. 1. Create an IS-IS routing process. CONFIGURATION mode router isis [tag] tag: (optional) identifies the name of the IS-IS process. 2. Configure an IS-IS network entity title (NET) for a routing process. ROUTER ISIS mode net network-entity-title Specify the area address and system ID for an IS-IS routing process. The last byte must be 00. For more information about configuring a NET, refer to IS-IS Addressing. 3.

• 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.

Configuring IS-IS Graceful Restart To enable IS-IS graceful restart globally, use the following commands. Additionally, you can implement optional commands to enable the graceful restart settings. • Enable graceful restart on ISIS processes. ROUTER-ISIS mode • graceful-restart ietf Configure the time during which the graceful restart attempt is prevented. ROUTER-ISIS mode graceful-restart interval minutes The range is from 1 to 120 minutes. • The default is 5 minutes.

24 Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) A link aggregation group (LAG), referred to as a port channel by the Dell Networking OS, can provide both load-sharing and port redundancy across line cards. You can enable LAGs as static or dynamic. Introduction to Dynamic LAGs and LACP A link aggregation group (LAG), referred to as a port channel by Dell Networking OS, can provide both load-sharing and port redundancy across line cards. You can enable LAGs as static or dynamic.
PAGE 479
• A dynamic LAG can be created with any type of configuration. • There is a difference between the shutdown and no interface port-channel commands: – The shutdown command on LAG “xyz” disables the LAG and retains the user commands. However, the system does not allow the channel number “xyz” to be statically created. – The no interface port-channel channel-number command deletes the specified LAG, including a dynamically created LAG.
PAGE 480
• Configure LACP mode. LACP mode [no] port-channel number mode [active | passive | off] – number: cannot statically contain any links. • The default is LACP active. Configure port priority. LACP mode [no] lacp port-priority priority-value The range is from 1 to 65535 (the higher the number, the lower the priority). The default is 32768. LACP Configuration Tasks The following configuration tasks apply to LACP.

Figure 55. 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 484
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 56.
PAGE 485
• 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 63. 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.

PAGE 496
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 498
NOTE: When the MAC learning limit (MLL) is configured as no-station-move, the MLL will be processed as static entries internally. For static entries, the MAC address will be installed in all port-pipes, irrespective of the VLAN membership. Recovering from Learning Limit and Station Move Violations After a learning-limit or station-move violation shuts down an interface, you must manually reset it. To reset the learning limit, use the following commands.
PAGE 499
When you use NIC teaming, consider that the server MAC address is originally learned on Port 0/1 of the switch (shown in the following) and Port 0/5 is the failover port. When the NIC fails, the system automatically sends an ARP request for the gateway or host NIC to resolve the ARP and refresh the egress interface. When the ARP is resolved, the same MAC address is learned on the same port where the ARP is resolved (in the previous example, this location is Port 0/5 of the switch).

Apply all other configurations to each interface in the redundant pair such that their configurations are identical, so that transition to the backup interface in the event of a failure is transparent to rest of the network. Figure 66. Configuring Redundant Layer 2 Pairs without Spanning Tree You configure a redundant pair by assigning a backup interface to a primary interface with the switchport backup interface command.

To ensure that existing network applications see no difference when a primary interface in a redundant pair transitions to the backup interface, be sure to apply identical configurations of other traffic parameters to each interface. If you remove an interface in a redundant link (remove the line card of a physical interface or delete a port channel with the no interface port-channel command), the redundant pair configuration is also removed.

Figure 67. 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.
PAGE 504
4. If the FEFD enabled system is configured to use FEFD in Normal mode and neighboring echoes are not received after three intervals, (you can set each interval can be set between 3 and 300 seconds) the state changes to unknown. 5. If the FEFD system has been set to Aggressive mode and neighboring echoes are not received after three intervals, the state changes to Err-disabled.
PAGE 505
To report interval frequency and mode adjustments, use the following commands. 1. Setup two or more connected interfaces for Layer 2 or Layer 3. INTERFACE mode ip address ip address, switchport 2. Enable the necessary ports administratively. INTERFACE mode no shutdown 3. Enable fefd globally.

Microsoft Network Load Balancing 27 Network load balancing (NLB) is a clustering functionality that is implemented by Microsoft on Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003 operating systems (OSs). NLB uses a distributed methodology or pattern to equally split and balance the network traffic load across a set of servers that are part of the cluster or group.
PAGE 531
To perform load-balancing, NLB, forwards the data frame to all the servers. NLB Multicast Mode Scenario Consider a topology in which you configure four servers, S1 through S4, as a cluster or a farm. This set of servers connects to a Layer 3 switch, which connects to the end-clients. They contain a single multicast MAC address (MAC-Cluster: 03-00-5E-11-11-11). In Multicast NLB mode, configure a static ARP configuration command to associate the cluster IP address with a multicast cluster MAC address.
PAGE 532
Enable and Disable VLAN Flooding • The older ARP entries are overwritten whenever newer NLB entries are learned. • All ARP entries, learned after you enable VLAN flooding, are deleted when you disable VLAN flooding, and RP2 triggers an ARP resolution. Disable VLAN flooding with the no ip vlan-flooding command. • When you add a port to the VLAN, the port automatically receives traffic if you enabled VLAN flooding. Old ARP entries are not deleted or updated.

Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) 28 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 535
Figure 75. 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 76.
PAGE 536
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 542
Limiting the Source-Active Cache Set the upper limit of the number of active sources that the Dell Networking OS caches. The default active source limit is 500K messages. When the total number of active sources reaches the specified limit, subsequent active sources are dropped even if they pass the reverse path forwarding (RPF) and policy check. To limit the number of sources that SA cache stores, use the following command. • Limit the number of sources that can be stored in the SA cache.

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

Anycast RP relieves these limitations by allowing multiple RPs per group, which can be distributed in a topologically significant manner according to the locations of the sources and receivers. 1. All the RPs serving a given group are configured with an identical anycast address. 2. Sources then register with the topologically closest RP. 3. RPs use MSDP to peer with each other using a unique address. Figure 85.

29 Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) Multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP) — specified in IEEE 802.1Q-2003 — is a rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP)-based spanning tree variation that improves per-VLAN spanning tree plus (PVST+). MSTP allows multiple spanning tree instances and allows you to map many VLANs to one spanning tree instance to reduce the total number of required instances. Protocol Overview MSTP — specified in IEEE 802.

• • 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. • • 1. Within an MSTI, only one path from any bridge to any other bridge is enabled.
PAGE 562

To view which instance a VLAN is mapped to, use the show spanning-tree mst vlan command from EXEC Privilege mode.
PAGE 563
Influencing MSTP Root Selection MSTP determines the root bridge, but you can assign one bridge a lower priority to increase the probability that it becomes the root bridge. To change the bridge priority, use the following command. • Assign a number as the bridge priority. PROTOCOL MSTP mode msti instance bridge-priority priority A lower number increases the probability that the bridge becomes the root bridge. The range is from 0 to 61440, in increments of 4096. The default is 32768.

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 31 IPv4 or IPv6 object tracking is available on Dell Networking OS. Object tracking allows the Dell Networking OS client processes, such as virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP), to monitor tracked objects (for example, interface or link status) and take appropriate action when the state of an object changes. NOTE: In Dell Networking OS release version 8.4.1.0, object tracking is supported only on VRRP.
PAGE 584
Figure 90. 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 585
Track IPv4 and IPv6 Routes You can create an object that tracks an IPv4 or IPv6 route entry in the routing table. Specify a tracked route by its IPv4 or IPv6 address and prefix-length. Optionally specify a tracked route by a virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) instance name if the route to be tracked is part of a VRF. The nexthop address is not part of the definition of the tracked object.
PAGE 586
• 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.
PAGE 587
• • Port channel: Enter port-channel number. VLAN: Enter vlan vlan-id, where valid VLAN IDs are from 1 to 4094 A line-protocol object only tracks the link-level (UP/DOWN) status of a specified interface. When the linklevel status goes down, the tracked object status is DOWN; if the link-level status is up, the tracked object status is UP. To remove object tracking on a Layer 2 interface, use the no track object-id command.

Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv2 and OSPFv3) 32 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 596
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 91. Autonomous System Areas Area Types The backbone of the network is Area 0. It is also called Area 0.0.0.
PAGE 597
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 598
Figure 92. 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 599
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 600
• Type 5: LSA — These LSAs contain information imported into OSPF from other routing processes. They are flooded to all areas, except stub areas. The link-state ID of the Type 5 LSA is the external network number. • Type 7: External LSA — Routers in an NSSA do not receive external LSAs from ABRs, but are allowed to send external routing information for redistribution.
PAGE 601
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 602
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 603
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. Reconfigure OSPFv3 graceful restart to a restarting-only role when you enable the helper-reject role on an interface.

Processing SNMP and Sending SNMP Traps Only the process in default vrf can process the SNMP requests and send SNMP traps. NOTE: SNMP gets request corresponding to the OspfNbrOption field in the OspfNbrTable returns a value of 66. RFC-2328 Compliant OSPF Flooding In OSPF, flooding is the most resource-consuming task. The flooding algorithm described in RFC 2328 requires that OSPF flood LSAs on all interfaces, as governed by LSA’s flooding scope (refer to Section 13 of the RFC.

• Helper-only: the OSPFv2 router supports graceful-restart only as a helper router. • Restart-only: the OSPFv2 router supports graceful-restart only during unplanned restarts. By default, OSPFv2 supports both restarting and helper roles. Selecting one or the other role restricts OSPFv2 to the single selected role. To disable OSPFv2 graceful-restart after you have enabled it, use the no graceful-restart graceperiod command in CONFIG-ROUTEROSPF- id mode.

period command. The grace period is the time that the OSPFv3 neighbors continue to advertise the restarting router as though it is fully adjacent. When you enable graceful restart (restarting role), an 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.

Policy-based Routing (PBR) 33 Policy-based routing (PBR) allows a switch to make routing decisions based on policies applied to an interface. Overview When a router receives a packet, the router decides where to forward the packet based on the destination address in the packet, which is used to look up an entry in a routing table. However, in some cases, there may be a need to forward the packet based on other criteria: size, source, protocol type, destination, and so on.
PAGE 639
To enable PBR, create a redirect list. Redirect lists are defined by rules or routing policies.

A recursive route is a route for which the immediate next-hop address is learned dynamically through a routing protocol and acquired through a route lookup in the routing table. You can configure multiple recursive routes in a redirect list by entering multiple seq redirect commands with the same source and destination address and specify a different next-hop IP address. In this way, the recursive routes are used as different forwarding routes for dynamic failover.
PAGE 644
In addition to supporting multiple redirect-lists in a redirect-group, multiple redirect-groups are supported on a single interface. Dell Networking OS has the capability to support multiple groups on an interface for backup purposes. Show Redirect List Configuration To view the configuration redirect list configuration, use the following commands. 1. View the redirect list configuration and the associated interfaces.

PIM Sparse-Mode (PIM-SM) 34 Protocol-independent multicast sparse-mode (PIM-SM) is a multicast protocol that forwards multicast traffic to a subnet only after a request using a PIM Join message; this behavior is the opposite of PIMDense mode, which forwards multicast traffic to all subnets until a request to stop. Implementation Information The following information is necessary for implementing PIM-SM.
PAGE 648
3. If a host on the same subnet as another multicast receiver sends an IGMP report for the same multicast group, the gateway takes no action. If a router between the host and the RP receives a PIM Join message for which it already has a (*,G) entry, the interface on which the message was received is added to the outgoing interface list associated with the (*,G) entry, and the message is not (and does not need to be) forwarded towards the RP.

PIM Source-Specific Mode (PIM-SSM) 35 PIM source-specific mode (PIM-SSM) is a multicast protocol that forwards multicast traffic from a single source to a subnet. In the other versions of protocol independent multicast (PIM), a receiver subscribes to a group only. The receiver receives traffic not just from the source in which it is interested but from all sources sending to that group.
PAGE 655
Configure PIM-SSM Configuring PIM-SSM is a two-step process. 1. Configure PIM-SSM. 2. Enable PIM-SSM for a range of addresses. Related Configuration Tasks • Use PIM-SSM with IGMP Version 2 Hosts Enabling PIM-SSM To enable PIM-SSM, follow these steps. 1. Create an ACL that uses permit rules to specify what range of addresses should use SSM. CONFIGURATION mode ip access-list standard name 2. Enter the ip pim ssm-range command and specify the ACL you created.
PAGE 656
• You may enter multiple ssm-map commands for different access lists. You may also enter multiple ssm-map commands for the same access list, as long as they use different source addresses. • When an extended ACL is associated with this command, Dell Networking OS displays an error message. If you apply an extended ACL before you create it, Dell Networking OS accepts the configuration, but when the ACL is later defined, Dell Networking OS ignores the ACL and the stated mapping has no effect.

36 Port Monitoring Port monitoring (also referred to as mirroring ) allows you to monitor ingress and/or egress traffic on specified ports. The mirrored traffic can be sent to a port to which a network analyzer is connected to inspect or troubleshoot the traffic. Mirroring is used for monitoring Ingress or Egress or both Ingress and Egress traffic on a specific port(s). This mirrored traffic can be sent to a port where a network sniffer can connect and monitor the traffic.
PAGE 659
Port Monitoring Port monitoring is supported on both physical and logical interfaces, such as VLAN and port-channel interfaces. The source port (MD) with monitored traffic and the destination ports (MG) to which an analyzer can be attached must be on the same switch. You can configure up to 128 source ports in a monitoring session. Only one destination port is supported in a monitoring session. The supports multiple source-destination statements in a single monitor session.
PAGE 660
rx ! Dell Networking OS Behavior: All monitored frames are tagged if the configured monitoring direction is egress (TX), regardless of whether the monitored port (MD) is a Layer 2 or Layer 3 port. If the MD port is a Layer 2 port, the frames are tagged with the VLAN ID of the VLAN to which the MD belongs. If the MD port is a Layer 3 port, the frames are tagged with VLAN ID 4095. If the MD port is in a Layer 3 VLAN, the frames are tagged with the respective Layer 3 VLAN ID.

PAGE 663
Remote Port Mirroring While local port monitoring allows you to monitor traffic from one or more source ports by directing it to a destination port on the same switch/router, remote port mirroring allows you to monitor Layer 2 and Layer 3 ingress and/or egress traffic on multiple source ports on different switches and forward the mirrored traffic to multiple destination ports on different switches.
PAGE 664
Figure 96. Remote Port Mirroring Configuring Remote Port Mirroring Remote port mirroring requires a source session (monitored ports on different source switches), a reserved tagged VLAN for transporting mirrored traffic (configured on source, intermediate, and destination switches), and a destination session (destination ports connected to analyzers on destination switches).
PAGE 665
• The L3 interface configuration should be blocked for RPM VLAN. • The member port of the reserved VLAN should have MTU and IPMTU value as MAX+4 (to hold the VLAN tag parameter). • To associate with source session, the reserved VLAN can have at max of only 4 member ports. • To associate with destination session, the reserved VLAN can have multiple member ports.
PAGE 666
• 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. • A destination port for remote port mirroring cannot be used as a source port, including the session in which the port functions as the destination port. • A destination port cannot be used in any spanning tree instance.

Encapsulated Remote Port Monitoring Encapsulated Remote Port Monitoring (ERPM) copies traffic from source ports/port-channels or source VLANs and forwards the traffic using routable GRE-encapsulated packets to the destination IP address specified in the session. Important: When configuring ERPM, follow these guidelines • The Dell Networking OS supports ERPM source session only. Encapsulated packets terminate at the destination IP address or at the analyzer.

ERPM Behavior on a typical Dell Networking OS The Dell Networking OS is designed to support only the Encapsulation of the data received / transmitted at the specified source port (Port A). An ERPM destination session / decapsulation of the ERPM packets at the destination Switch are not supported. Figure 97.
PAGE 673
– Start capture of ERPM packets on the Sniffer and save it to the trace file (for example : erpmwithheader.pcap). – The Header that gets attached to the packet is 38 bytes long. In case of a packet with L3 VLAN, it would be 42 bytes long. The original payload /original mirrored data starts from the 39th byte in a given ERPM packet. The first 38/42 bytes of the header needs to be ignored/ chopped off. – Some tools support options to edit the capture file.

Figure 99. 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.

vlan max-age The range is from 6 to 40. The default is 20 seconds. The values for global PVST+ parameters are given in the output of the show spanning-tree pvst command. Modifying Interface PVST+ Parameters You can adjust two interface parameters (port cost and port priority) to increase or decrease the probability that a port becomes a forwarding port. • Port cost — a value that is based on the interface type. The greater the port cost, the less likely the port is selected to be a forwarding port.

The default is 128. The values for interface PVST+ parameters are given in the output of the show spanning-tree pvst command, as previously shown. Configuring an EdgePort The EdgePort feature enables interfaces to begin forwarding traffic approximately 30 seconds sooner.

Enabling PVST+ Extend System ID In the following example, ports P1 and P2 are untagged members of different VLANs. These ports are untagged because the hub is VLAN unaware. There is no data loop in this scenario; however, you can employ PVST+ to avoid potential misconfigurations.

Policy-Based QoS Configurations Policy-based QoS configurations consist of the components shown in the following example. Figure 102. Constructing Policy-Based QoS Configurations Classify Traffic Class maps differentiate traffic so that you can apply separate quality of service policies to different types of traffic. For both class maps, Layer 2 and Layer 3, Dell Networking OS matches packets against match criteria in the order that you configure them.
PAGE 691
Creating a Layer 3 Class Map A Layer 3 class map differentiates ingress packets based on the DSCP value or IP precedence, and characteristics defined in an IP ACL. You can also use VLAN IDs and VRF IDs to classify the traffic using layer 3 class-maps. You may specify more than one DSCP and IP precedence value, but only one value must match to trigger a positive match for the class map. NOTE: IPv6 and IP-any class maps cannot match on ACLs or VLANs. Use step 1 or step 2 to start creating a Layer 3 class map.
PAGE 692
The following example matches IPv6 traffic with a DSCP value of 40.

Consider that two switches A and B are connected back to back via a tagged interface. Consider the case where untagged packets arrive on switch A, if you want to generate PFC for priority 2 for DSCP range 0-7, then you must need to match the interested traffic using the class map. You should create an L3 Input Qos Policy and mark vlan dot1p as 2. You have to associate both the L3 class map and L3 Input Qos Policy to queue 1 using the policy map.

Specifying Policy-Based Rate Shaping in Packets Per Second Configuration of rate shaping in packets per second (pps) for QoS output policies is supported on the platform. You can configure rate shaping in pps for a QoS output policy, apart from specifying the rate shaping value in bytes. You can also configure the peak rate and the committed rate for packets in kilobits per second (Kbps) or pps.

The weight factor is set to zero by default, which causes the same behavior as dropping of packets by WRED during network loads or also called instantaneous ECN marking. In a topology in which congestion of the network varies over time, you can specify a weight to enable a smooth, seamless averaging of packets to handle the sudden overload of packets based on the previous time sampling performed. You can specify the weight parameter for front-end and backplane ports separately in the range of 0 through 15.

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 715
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 716
• 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) 39 The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) tracks distances or hop counts to nearby routers when establishing network connections and is based on a distance-vector algorithm. RIP is based on a distance-vector algorithm; it tracks distances or hop counts to nearby routers when establishing network connections. RIP protocol standards are listed in the Standards Compliance chapter. Protocol Overview RIP is the oldest interior gateway protocol.
PAGE 722
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 72.
PAGE 723
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 725
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 726
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 specific OSPF routes in RIP. ROUTER RIP mode redistribute ospf process-id [match external {1 | 2} | match internal] [metric value] [route-map map-name] Configure the following parameters: – process-id: the range is from 1 to 65535. – metric: the range is from 0 to 16. – map-name: the name of a configured route map.
PAGE 727
To configure an interface to receive or send both versions of RIP, include 1 and 2 in the command syntax. The command syntax for sending both RIPv1 and RIPv2 and receiving only RIPv2 is shown in the following example. Dell(conf-if)#ip rip send version 1 2 Dell(conf-if)#ip rip receive version 2 The following example of the show ip protocols command confirms that both versions are sent out that interface.
PAGE 728
Exercise caution when applying an offset command to routers on a broadcast network, as the router using the offset command is modifying RIP advertisements before sending out those advertisements. The distance command also allows you to manipulate route metrics. To assign different weights to routes so that the ones with the lower weight or administrative distance assigned are preferred, use the distance command. To set route matrixes, use the following commands.
PAGE 729
RIP Configuration Example The examples in this section show the command sequence to configure RIPv2 on the two routers shown in the following illustration — Core 2 and Core 3. The host prompts used in the following example reflect those names. The examples are divided into the following groups of command sequences: • Configuring RIPv2 on Core 2 • Core 2 RIP Output • RIP Configuration on Core 3 • Core 3 RIP Output • RIP Configuration Summary Figure 104.

Remote Monitoring (RMON) 40 RMON is an industry-standard implementation that monitors network traffic by sharing network monitoring information. RMON provides both 32-bit and 64-bit monitoring facility and long-term statistics collection on Dell Networking Ethernet interfaces. RMON operates with the simple network management protocol (SNMP) and monitors all nodes on a local area network (LAN) segment. RMON monitors traffic passing through the router and segment traffic not destined for the router.

Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) 41 The Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) is a Layer 2 protocol — specified by IEEE 802.1w — that is essentially the same as spanning-tree protocol (STP) but provides faster convergence and interoperability with switches configured with STP and multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP). Protocol Overview RSTP is a Layer 2 protocol — specified by IEEE 802.
PAGE 738
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 739
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 740
Figure 105. Rapid Spanning Tree Enabled Globally To view the interfaces participating in RSTP, use the show spanning-tree rstp command from EXEC privilege mode. If a physical interface is part of a port channel, only the port channel is listed in the command output. Dell#show spanning-tree rstp Root Identifier has priority 32768, Address 0001.e801.cbb4 Root Bridge hello time 2, max age 20, forward delay 15, max hops 0 Bridge Identifier has priority 32768, Address 0001.e801.

PAGE 742
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 743
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 744
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.

• • • Configuring AAA Authentication Login Methods Enabling AAA Authentication Enabling AAA Authentication - RADIUS For a complete list of all commands related to login authentication, refer to the Security chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Guide. Configure Login Authentication for Terminal Lines You can assign up to five authentication methods to a method list. Dell Networking OS evaluates the methods in the order in which you enter them in each list.
PAGE 752
You can create multiple method lists and assign them to different terminal lines. Enabling AAA Authentication To enable AAA authentication, use the following command. • Enable AAA authentication. CONFIGURATION mode aaa authentication enable {method-list-name | default} method1 [... method4] – default: uses the listed authentication methods that follow this argument as the default list of methods when a user logs in.
PAGE 753
The following example shows enabling local authentication for console and remote authentication for the VTY lines. Dell(config)# aaa authentication enable mymethodlist radius tacacs Dell(config)# line vty 0 9 Dell(config-line-vty)# enable authentication mymethodlist Server-Side Configuration Using AAA authentication, the switch acts as a RADIUS or TACACS+ client to send authentication requests to a TACACS+ or RADIUS server.
PAGE 754
AAA Authorization Dell Networking OS enables AAA new-model by default. You can set authorization to be either local or remote. Different combinations of authentication and authorization yield different results. By default, Dell Networking OS sets both to local. Privilege Levels Overview Limiting access to the system is one method of protecting the system and your network. However, at times, you might need to allow others access to the router and you can limit that access to a subset of commands.
PAGE 755
For a complete listing of all commands related to Dell Networking OS privilege levels and passwords, refer to the Security chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Guide. Configuring a Username and Password In Dell Networking OS, you can assign a specific username to limit user access to the system. To configure a username and password, use the following command. • Assign a user name and password.
PAGE 756
Configuring Custom Privilege Levels In addition to assigning privilege levels to the user, you can configure the privilege levels of commands so that they are visible in different privilege levels. Within Dell Networking OS, commands have certain privilege levels. With the privilege command, you can change the default level or you can reset their privilege level back to the default. • Assign the launch keyword (for example, configure) for the keyword’s command mode.
PAGE 757
• • command: an Dell Networking OS CLI keyword (up to five keywords allowed). reset: return the command to its default privilege mode. Examples of Privilege Level Commands To view the configuration, use the show running-config command in EXEC Privilege mode. The following example shows a configuration to allow a user john to view only EXEC mode commands and all snmp-server commands.
PAGE 758

the RADIUS server and requests authentication of the user and password. The RADIUS server returns one of the following responses: • Access-Accept — the RADIUS server authenticates the user. • Access-Reject — the RADIUS server does not authenticate the user. If an error occurs in the transmission or reception of RADIUS packets, you can view the error by enabling the debug radius command. Transactions between the RADIUS server and the client are encrypted (the users’ passwords are not sent in plain text).
PAGE 760
• • If an ACL is absent. If there is a very long delay for an entry, or a denied entry because of an ACL, and a message is logged. NOTE: The ACL name must be a string. Only standard ACLs in authorization (both RADIUS and TACACS) are supported. Authorization is denied in cases using Extended ACLs. Auto-Command You can configure the system through the RADIUS server to automatically execute a command when you connect to a specific line.

debug tacacs+ TACACS+ Remote Authentication The system takes the access class from the TACACS+ server. Access class is the class of service that restricts Telnet access and packet sizes. If you have configured remote authorization, the system ignores the access class you have configured for the VTY line and gets this access class information from the TACACS+ server. The system must know the username and password of the incoming user before it can fetch the access class from the server.
PAGE 766
To view the TACACS+ configuration, use the show running-config tacacs+ command in EXEC Privilege mode. To delete a TACACS+ server host, use the no tacacs-server host {hostname | ip-address} command. freebsd2# telnet 2200:2200:2200:2200:2200::2202 Trying 2200:2200:2200:2200:2200::2202...

Dell(config-line-vty)#end (same applies for radius and line authentication) VTY MAC-SA Filter Support Dell Networking OS supports MAC access lists which permit or deny users based on their source MAC address. With this approach, you can implement a security policy based on the source MAC address. To apply a MAC ACL on a VTY line, use the same access-class command as IP ACLs. The following example shows how to deny incoming connections from subnet 10.0.0.0 without displaying a login prompt.

• Displaying Information About Roles Logged into the Switch • Display Role Permissions Assigned to a Command Overview of RBAC With Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), access and authorization is controlled based on a user’s role. Users are granted permissions based on their user roles, not on their individual user ID. User roles are created for job functions and through those roles they acquire the permissions to perform their associated job function. Each user can be assigned only a single role.
PAGE 778
1. Locally define a system administrator user role. This will give you access to login with full permissions even if network connectivity to remote authentication servers is not available. 2. Configure login authentication on the console. This ensures that all users are properly identified through authentication no matter the access point. If you do not configure login the authentication on the console, the system displays an error when you attempt to enable role-based only AAA authorization. 3.
PAGE 779
System-Defined RBAC User Roles By default, the Dell Networking OS provides 4 system defined user roles. You can create up to 8 additional user roles. NOTE: You cannot delete any system defined roles. The system defined user roles are as follows: • Network Operator (netoperator) - This user role has no privilege to modify any configuration on the switch. You can access Exec mode (monitoring) to view the current configuration and status information.
PAGE 780
then restrict commands or add commands to that role. For more information about this topic, see Modifying Command Permissions for Roles. NOTE: You can change user role permissions on system pre-defined user roles or user-defined user roles. Important Points to Remember Consider the following when creating a user role: • Only the system administrator and user-defined roles inherited from the system administrator can create roles and user names.
PAGE 781
myrole secadmin Exec Config Line Modifying Command Permissions for Roles You can modify (add or delete) command permissions for newly created user roles and system defined roles using the role mode { { { addrole | deleterole } role-name } | reset } command command in Configuration mode. NOTE: You cannot modify system administrator command permissions. If you add or delete command permissions using the role command, those changes only apply to the specific user role.
PAGE 782
Example: Allow Security Administrator to Access Only 10-Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces The following example allows the security administrator (secadmin) to only access 10-Gigabit Ethernett interfaces and then shows that the secadmin, highlighted in bold, can now access Interface mode. However, the secadmin can only access 10-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
PAGE 783
The following example resets only the secadmin role to its original setting. Dell(conf)#no role configure addrole secadmin protocol Example: Reset System-Defined Roles and Roles that Inherit Permissions In the following example the command protocol permissions are reset to their original setting or one or more of the system-defined roles and any roles that inherited permissions from them.
PAGE 784
NOTE: Authentication services only validate the user ID and password combination. To determine which commands are permitted for users, configure authorization. For information about how to configure authorization for roles, see Configure AAA Authorization for Roles. To configure AAA authentication, use the aaa authentication command in CONFIGURATION mode.

Service Provider Bridging 44 Service provider bridging provides the ability to add a second VLAN ID tag in an Ethernet frame and is referred to as VLAN stacking in the Dell Networking OS. VLAN Stacking VLAN stacking, also called Q-in-Q, is defined in IEEE 802.1ad — Provider Bridges, which is an amendment to IEEE 802.1Q — Virtual Bridged Local Area Networks. It enables service providers to use 802.
PAGE 790
Figure 106. 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.
PAGE 791
Configure VLAN Stacking Configuring VLAN-Stacking is a three-step process. 1. Creating Access and Trunk Ports 2. Assign access and trunk ports to a VLAN (Creating Access and Trunk Ports). 3. Enabling VLAN-Stacking for a VLAN.
PAGE 792
no ip address switchport vlan-stack trunk no shutdown Enable VLAN-Stacking for a VLAN To enable VLAN-Stacking for a VLAN, use the following command. • Enable VLAN-Stacking for the VLAN. INTERFACE VLAN mode vlan-stack compatible Example of Viewing VLAN Stack Member Status To display the status and members of a VLAN, use the show vlan command from EXEC Privilege mode. Members of a VLAN-Stacking-enabled VLAN are marked with an M in column Q.
PAGE 793
Example of Configuring a Trunk Port as a Hybrid Port and Adding it to Stacked VLANs In the following example, TenGigabitEthernet 1/1/1 is a trunk port that is configured as a hybrid port and then added to VLAN 100 as untagged VLAN 101 as tagged, and VLAN 103, which is a stacking VLAN.
PAGE 794
vlan id Dell# : 603 (MT), 100(T), 101(NU) VLAN Stacking in Multi-Vendor Networks The first field in the VLAN tag is the tag protocol identifier (TPID), which is 2 bytes. In a VLAN-stacking network, after the frame is double tagged, the outer tag TPID must match the TPID of the next-hop system. While 802.1Q requires that the inner tag TPID is 0x8100, it does not require a specific value for the outer tag TPID.

Figure 109. Single and Double-Tag TPID Mismatch VLAN Stacking Packet Drop Precedence VLAN stacking packet-drop precedence is supported on the switch. The drop eligible indicator (DEI) bit in the S-Tag indicates to a service provider bridge which packets it should prefer to drop when congested. Enabling Drop Eligibility Enable drop eligibility globally before you can honor or mark the DEI value. When you enable drop eligibility, DEI mapping or marking takes place according to the defaults.

Retain inner tag CFI Retain inner tag CFI Set outer tag CFI to 0 Set outer tag CFI to 0 Access Port Trunk Port To enable drop eligibility globally, use the following command. • Make packets eligible for dropping based on their DEI value.
PAGE 799
Marking Egress Packets with a DEI Value On egress, you can set the DEI value according to a different mapping than ingress. For ingress information, refer to Honoring the Incoming DEI Value. To mark egress packets, use the following command. • Set the DEI value on egress according to the color currently assigned to the packet.
PAGE 800
• Mark the S-Tag dot1p and queue the frame according to the S-Tag dot1p. For example, if frames with C-Tag dot1p values 0, 6, and 7 are mapped to an S-Tag dot1p value 0, all such frames are sent to the queue associated with the S-Tag 802.1p value 0. This option requires two different CAM entries, each in a different Layer 2 ACL FP block.
PAGE 801
Mapping C-Tag to S-Tag dot1p Values To map C-Tag dot1p values to S-Tag dot1p values and mark the frames accordingly, use the following commands. 1. Allocate CAM space to enable queuing frames according to the C-Tag or the S-Tag. CONFIGURATION mode cam-acl l2acl number ipv4acl number ipv6acl number ipv4qos number l2qos number l2pt number ipmacacl number ecfmacl number {vman-qos | vman-qos-dualfp} number • vman-qos: mark the S-Tag dot1p and queue the frame according to the original C-Tag dot1p.

Figure 111. VLAN Stacking without L2PT You might need to transport control traffic transparently through the intermediate network to the other region. Layer 2 protocol tunneling enables BPDUs to traverse the intermediate network by identifying frames with the Bridge Group Address, rewriting the destination MAC to a user-configured non-reserved address, and forwarding the frames.
PAGE 803
the intermediate network because only Dell Networking OS could recognize the significance of the destination MAC address and rewrite it to the original Bridge Group Address. In Dell Networking OS version 8.2.1.0 and later, the L2PT MAC address is user-configurable, so you can specify an address that non-Dell Networking systems can recognize and rewrite the address at egress edge. Figure 112. VLAN Stacking with L2PT Implementation Information • L2PT is available for STP, RSTP, MSTP, and PVST+ BPDUs.

sFlow 45 sFlow is a standard-based sampling technology embedded within switches and routers which is used to monitor network traffic. It is designed to provide traffic monitoring for high-speed networks with many switches and routers. Overview The Dell Networking Operating System (OS) supports sFlow version 5. sFlow is a standard-based sampling technology embedded within switches and routers which is used to monitor network traffic.
PAGE 807
• If the interface states are shut down, the sampling rate is set using the global sampling rate. • If the global sampling rate is non-default, for example 256, and if the sampling rate is not configured on the interface, the sampling rate of the interface is the global non-default sampling rate, that is, 256. To avoid the back-off, either increase the global sampling rate or configure all the line card ports with the desired sampling rate even if some ports have no sFlow configured.

46 Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is designed to manage devices on IP networks by monitoring device operation, which might require administrator intervention. NOTE: On Dell Networking routers, standard and private SNMP management information bases (MIBs) are supported, including all Get and a limited number of Set operations (such as set vlan and copy cmd).
PAGE 815
The SNMPv3 feature also uses a FIPS-validated cryptographic module for all of its cryptographic operations when the system is configured with the fips mode enable command in Global Configuration mode. When the FIPS mode is enabled on the system, SNMPv3 operates in a FIPScompliant manner, and only the FIPS-approved algorithm options are available for SNMPv3 user configuration. When the FIPS mode is disabled on the system, all options are available for SNMPv3 user configuration.

only when users are not previously configured. This log message is provided to assist your system security auditing procedures. Configuration Task List for SNMP Configuring SNMP version 1 or version 2 requires a single step. NOTE: The configurations in this chapter use a UNIX environment with net-snmp version 5.4. This environment is only one of many RFC-compliant SNMP utilities you can use to manage your Dell Networking system using SNMP. Also, these configurations use SNMP version 2c.
PAGE 817
Creating a Community For SNMPv1 and SNMPv2, create a community to enable the community-based security in Dell Networking OS. The management station generates requests to either retrieve or alter the value of a management object and is called the SNMP manager. A network element that processes SNMP requests is called an SNMP agent. An SNMP community is a group of SNMP agents and managers that are allowed to interact.

Configuring Contact and Location Information using SNMP You may configure system contact and location information from the Dell Networking system or from the management station using SNMP. To configure system contact and location information from the Dell Networking system and from the management station using SNMP, use the following commands. • (From a Dell Networking system) Identify the system manager along with this person’s contact information (for example, an email address or phone number).
PAGE 821
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.

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) 48 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 841
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 842
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.

To verify that STP is enabled, use the show config command from PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE mode.
PAGE 844
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 845
spanning-tree 0 Modifying Global Parameters You can modify the spanning tree parameters. The root bridge sets the values for forward-delay, hellotime, and max-age and overwrites the values set on other bridges participating in STP. NOTE: Dell Networking recommends that only experienced network administrators change the spanning tree parameters. Poorly planned modification of the spanning tree parameters can negatively affect network performance. The following table displays the default values for STP.

PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE mode max-age seconds The range is from 6 to 40. The default is 20 seconds. To view the current values for global parameters, use the show spanning-tree 0 command from EXEC privilege mode. Refer to the second example in Enabling Spanning Tree Protocol Globally. Modifying Interface STP Parameters You can set the port cost and port priority values of interfaces in Layer 2 mode. • Port cost — a value that is based on the interface type.
PAGE 847
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.

STP Root Guard Use the STP root guard feature in a Layer 2 network to avoid bridging loops. In STP, the switch in the network with the lowest priority (as determined by STP or set with the bridge-priority command) is selected as the root bridge. If two switches have the same priority, the switch with the lower MAC address is selected as the root. All other switches in the network use the root bridge as the reference used to calculate the shortest forwarding path.
PAGE 851
Figure 116. 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 852
• 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 853
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 854
Figure 117. STP Loop Guard Prevents Forwarding Loops Configuring Loop Guard Enable STP loop guard on a per-port or per-port channel basis. The following conditions apply to a port enabled with loop guard: • Loop guard is supported on any STP-enabled port or port-channel interface.
PAGE 855
• 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 856
System Time and Date 49 System time and date settings and the network time protocol (NTP) are supported on Dell Networking OS. You can set system times and dates and maintained through the NTP. They are also set through the Dell Networking Operating System (OS) command line interfaces (CLIs) and hardware settings. The Dell Networking OS supports reaching an NTP server through different VRFs. You can configure a maximum of eight logging servers across different VRFs or the same VRF.
PAGE 857
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 858
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.
PAGE 859
• Set the interface to receive NTP packets. INTERFACE mode ntp broadcast client Example of Configuring NTP Broadcasts 2w1d11h : NTP: Maximum Slew:-0.000470, Remainder = -0.496884 Disabling NTP on an Interface By default, NTP is enabled on all active interfaces. If you disable NTP on an interface, Dell Networking OS drops any NTP packets sent to that interface. To disable NTP on an interface, use the following command. • Disable NTP on the interface.
PAGE 860
Configuring NTP Authentication NTP authentication and the corresponding trusted key provide a reliable means of exchanging NTP packets with trusted time sources. NTP authentication begins when the first NTP packet is created following the configuration of keys. NTP authentication in Dell Networking OS uses the message digest 5 (MD5) algorithm and the key is embedded in the synchronization packet that is sent to an NTP time source.

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.

Tunneling 50 Tunnel interfaces create a logical tunnel for IPv4 or IPv6 traffic. Tunneling supports RFC 2003, RFC 2473, and 4213. DSCP, hop-limits, flow label values, open shortest path first (OSPF) v2, and OSPFv3 are supported. Internet control message protocol (ICMP) error relay, PATH MTU transmission, and fragmented packets are not supported. Configuring a Tunnel You can configure a tunnel in IPv6 mode, IPv6IP mode, and IPIP mode.

PAGE 869
no shutdown Configuring a Tunnel Interface You can configure the tunnel interface using the ip unnumbered and ipv6 unnumbered commands. To configure the tunnel interface to operate without a unique explicit IP or IPv6 address, select the interface from which the tunnel borrows its address. The following sample configuration shows how to use the interface tunnel configuration commands. Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1)#show config ! interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1/1 ip address 20.1.1.

tunnel mode ipip decapsulate-any no shutdown 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.
PAGE 871
Multipoint Receive-Only Tunnels A multipoint receive-only IP tunnel decapsulates packets from remote end-points and never forwards packets on the tunnel. You can configure an additional level of security on a receive-only IP tunnel by specifying a valid prefix or range of remote peers. The operational status of a multipoint receive-only tunnel interface always remains up.

Virtual LANs (VLANs) 52 Virtual LANs (VLANs) are a logical broadcast domain or logical grouping of interfaces in a local area network (LAN) in which all data received is kept locally and broadcast to all members of the group. When in Layer 2 mode, VLANs move traffic at wire speed and can span multiple devices. The system supports up to 4093 port-based VLANs and one default VLAN, as specified in IEEE 802.1Q.
PAGE 874
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 875
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 876
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 877
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. In a port-based VLAN, use the tagged command to add the interface to another VLAN.
PAGE 878
CONFIGURATION mode interface vlan vlan-id 2. Configure an interface as untagged. INTERFACE mode untagged interface This command is available only in VLAN interfaces. Move an Untagged Interface to Another VLAN The no untagged interface command removes the untagged interface from a port-based VLAN and places the interface in the Default VLAN. You cannot use the no untagged interface command in the Default VLAN.
PAGE 879
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. The shutdown command in INTERFACE mode does not affect Layer 2 traffic on the interface; the shutdown command only prevents Layer 3 traffic from traversing over the interface. NOTE: You cannot assign an IP address to the Default VLAN (VLAN 1).

VLT Proxy Gateway 53 The virtual link trucking (VLT) proxy gateway feature allows a VLT domain to locally terminate and route L3 packets that are destined to a Layer 3 (L3) end point in another VLT domain. Enable the VLT proxy gateway using the link layer discover protocol (LLDP) method or the static configuration. For more information, see the Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide.
PAGE 882
Figure 120. Sample Configuration for a VLT Proxy Gateway Guidelines for Enabling the VLT Proxy Gateway Keep the following points in mind when you enable a VLT proxy gateway: • • • • • • • Proxy gateway is supported only for VLT; for example, across a VLT domain. You must enable the VLT peer-routing command for the VLT proxy gateway to function.
PAGE 883
• If the port-channel specified in the proxy-gateway command is not a VLT LAG, the configuration is rejected by the CLI. • You cannot change the VLT LAG to a legacy LAG when it is part of proxy-gateway. • You cannot change the link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) port channel interface to a legacy LAG when you enable a proxy gateway. • Dell Networking recommends the vlt-peer-mac transmit command only for square VLTs without diagonal links.
PAGE 884
• LLDP uses the existing infrastructure and adds a new TLV for sending and receiving on the configured ports. • There are only a few MAC addresses for each unit transmitted. All currently active MAC addresses are carried on the newly defined TLV. • Dell Networking devices not configured with VLT proxy gateway process standard TLVs and ignore TLVs configured with VLT proxy gateway.
PAGE 885
Figure 121. Sample Configuration for a VLT Proxy Gateway • The above figure shows a sample VLT Proxy gateway scenario. There are no diagonal links in the square VLT connection between the C and D in VLT domain 1 and C1 and D1 in the VLT domain 2. This causes sub-optimal routing with the VLT Proxy Gateway LLDP method.
PAGE 886
address of D1, it may be dropped. This behavior is applicable only in an LLDP configuration; in a static configuration, the packet is forwarded. • Any L3 packet, when it gets an L3 hit and is routed, it has a time to live (TTL) decrement as expected. • You can disable the VLT Proxy Gateway for a particular VLAN using an "Exclude-VLAN" configuration. The configuration has to be done in both the VLT domains [C and D in VLT domain 1 and C1 and D1 in VLT domain 2].

54 Virtual Link Trunking (VLT) Virtual link trunking (VLT) allows physical links between two chassis to appear as a single virtual link to the network core or other switches such as Edge, Access, or top-of-rack (ToR). Overview VLT reduces the role of spanning tree protocols (STPs) by allowing link aggregation group (LAG) terminations on two separate distribution or core switches and supporting a loop-free topology.
PAGE 889
Figure 122. Example of VLT Deployment VLT on Core Switches Uplinks from servers to the access layer and from access layer to the aggregation layer are bundled in LAG groups with end-to-end Layer 2 multipathing. This set up requires “horizontal” stacking at the access layer and VLT at the aggregation layer such that all the uplinks from servers to access and access to aggregation are in Active-Active Load Sharing mode.
PAGE 890
Figure 123. 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 891
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 • 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. • If you include PVST on the system, configure it before VLT. Refer to PVST Configuration.
PAGE 892
• 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 893
– 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 894
– 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 895
– For information about configuring IGMP Snooping in a VLT domain, refer to VLT and IGMP Snooping. – All system management protocols are supported on VLT ports, including SNMP, RMON, AAA, ACL, DNS, FTP, SSH, Syslog, NTP, RADIUS, SCP, TACACS+, Telnet, and LLDP. – 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.
PAGE 896
– If the primary chassis fails, the secondary chassis takes on the operational role of the primary. • The SNMP MIB reports VLT statistics. 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.
PAGE 897
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.
PAGE 898
Figure 124. PIM-Sparse Mode Support on VLT On each VLAN where the VLT peer nodes act as the first hop or last hop routers, one of the VLT peer nodes is elected as the PIM designated router. If you configured IGMP snooping along with PIM on the VLT VLANs, you must configure VLTi as the static multicast router port on both VLT peer switches. This ensures that for first hop routers, the packets from the source are redirected to the designated router (DR) if they are incorrectly hashed.
PAGE 899
To route traffic to and from the multicast source and receiver, enable PIM on the L3 side connected to the PIM router using the ip pim sparse-mode command. Each VLT peer runs its own PIM protocol independently of other VLT peers. To ensure the PIM protocol states or multicast routing information base (MRIB) on the VLT peers are synced, if the incoming interface (IIF) and outgoing interface (OIF) are Spanned, the multicast route table is synced between the VLT peers.
PAGE 900
• L3 routing is enabled on any new IP address / IPv6 address configured for a VLAN interface that is up. • L3 routing is enabled on any VLAN with an admin state of up. NOTE: If the CAM is full, do not enable peer-routing. NOTE: The peer routing and peer-routing-timeout is applicable for both IPv6/ IPv4. Configuring VLT Unicast To enable and configure VLT unicast, follow these steps. 1. Enable VLT on a switch, then configure a VLT domain and enter VLT-domain configuration mode.

node to choose a different VLAN or IP route to reach the PIM neighbor. This can result in issues with multicast route syncing between peers. • Both VLT peers require symmetric Layer 2 and Layer 3 configurations on both VLT peers for any spanned VLAN. • For optimal performance, configure the VLT VLAN routing metrics to prefer VLT VLAN interfaces over non-VLT VLAN interfaces.
PAGE 902
Run RSTP on both VLT peer switches. The primary VLT peer controls the RSTP states, such as forwarding and blocking, on both the primary and secondary peers. Dell Networking recommends configuring the primary VLT peer as the RSTP primary root device and configuring the secondary VLT peer as the RSTP secondary root device. BPDUs use the MAC address of the primary VLT peer as the RSTP bridge ID in the designated bridge ID field.

You can associate either a VLT VLAN or a VLT LAG to a PVLAN. First configure the VLT interconnect (VLTi) or a VLT LAG by using the peer-link port-channel id-number command or the VLT VLAN by using the peer-link port-channel id-number peer-down-vlan vlan interface number command and the switchport command.

MAC Synchronization for VLT Nodes in a PVLAN For the MAC addresses that are learned on non-VLT ports, MAC address synchronization is performed with the other peer if the VLTi (ICL) link is part of the same VLAN as the non-VLT port. For MAC addresses that are learned on VLT ports, the VLT LAG mode of operation and the primary to secondary association of the VLT nodes is determined on both the VLT peers.

the show config command output, it is enabled. Only nondefault information is displayed in the show config command output. ARP proxy operation is performed on the VLT peer node IP address when the peer VLT node is down. The ARP proxy stops working either when the peer routing timer expires or when the peer VLT node goes up. Layer 3 VLT provides a higher resiliency at the Layer 3 forwarding level. VLT peer routing enables you to replace VRRP with routed VLT to route the traffic from Layer 2 access nodes.
PAGE 934
When a VLT node detects peer up, it will not perform proxy ARP for the peer IP addresses. IP address synchronization occurs again between the VLT peers. Proxy ARP is enabled only if peer routing is enabled on both the VLT peers. If you disable peer routing by using the no peer-routingcommand in VLT DOMAIN node, a notification is sent to the VLT peer to disable the proxy ARP.

Using the bootstrap router (BSR) mechanism, both the VLT nodes in a VLT domain can be configured as the candidate RP for the same group range. When an RP fails, the VLT peer automatically takes over the role of the RP. This phenomenon enables resiliency to be achieved by the PIM BSR protocol.

Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) 55 Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Overview The switch acts as the VXLAN gateway and performs the VXLAN Tunnel End Point (VTEP) functionality. VXLAN is a technology where in the data traffic from the virtualized servers is transparently transported over an existing legacy network. Figure 126.
PAGE 940
Components of VXLAN network VXLAN provides a mechanism to extend an L2 network over an L3 network. In short, VXLAN is an L2 overlay scheme over an L3 network and this overlay is termed as a VXLAN segment.

VXLAN Hypervisor It is the VTEP that connects the Virtual Machines (VM) to the underlay legacy network to the physical infrastructure. Service Node(SN) It is also another VTEP, but it is fully managed by NSX. The purpose of SN is to be the central replication engine for flooded packets Legacy TOR It is a TOR switch, which performs routing or switching decisions. Functional Overview of VXLAN Gateway The following section is the functional overview of VXLAN Gateway: 1.

Figure 127. VXLAN Frame Format Components of VXLAN Frame Format Some of the important fields of the VXLAN frame format are described below: Outer Ethernet Header: Outer IP Header: Outer UDP Header: 942 The Outer Ethernet Header consists of the following components: • Destination Address: Generally, it is a first hop router's MAC address when the VTEP is on a different address. • Source Address : It is the source MAC address of the router that routes the packet.
PAGE 943
VXLAN Header : Frame Check Sequence (FCS): • VXLAN Flags : Reserved bits set to zero except bit 3, the first bit, which is set to 1 for a valid VNI • VNI: The 24-bit field that is the VXLAN Network Identifier • Reserved: A set of fields, 24 bits and 8 bits, that are reserved and set to zero . Note that the original Ethernet frame's FCS is not included, but new FCS is generated on the outer Ethernet frame.

You can create a logical network by creating a logical switch. The logical network acts as the forwarding domain for workloads on the physical as well as virtual infrastructure. Figure 133. Create Logical Switch 5. Create Logical Switch Port A logical switch port provides a logical connection point for a VM interface (VIF) and a L2 gateway connection to an external network. It binds the virtual access ports in the GW to logical network (VXLAN) and VLAN. Figure 134.

Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) 56 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 950
Figure 135. 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 951
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 90.
PAGE 952
Feature/Capability Support Status for Default VRF Support Status for Non-default VRF NOTE: ACLs supported on all VRF VLAN ports. IPv4 ACLs are supported on nondefault-VRFs also. IPv6 ACLs are supported on defaultVRF only. PBR supported on default-VRF only. QoS not supported on VLANs.
PAGE 953
DHCP DHCP requests are not forwarded across VRF instances. The DHCP client and server must be on the same VRF instance. VRF Configuration The VRF configuration tasks are: 1. Enabling VRF in Configuration Mode 2. Creating a Non-Default VRF 3. Assign an Interface to a VRF You can also: • View VRF Instance Information • Connect an OSPF Process to a VRF Instance • Configure VRRP on a VRF Load VRF CAM VRF is enabled by default on the switch.
PAGE 954
NOTE: You can configure an IP address or subnet on a physical or VLAN interface that overlaps the same IP address or subnet configured on another interface only if the interfaces are assigned to different VRFs. If two interfaces are assigned to the same VRF, you cannot configure overlapping IP subnets or the same IP address on them. Table 93.

NOTE: In Dell Networking OS, you can configure at most one route-export per VRF as only one set of routes can be exposed for leaking. However, you can configure multiple route-import targets because a VRF can accept routes from multiple VRFs.

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) 57 Virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP) is designed to eliminate a single point of failure in a statically routed network. VRRP Overview VRRP is designed to eliminate a single point of failure in a statically routed network. VRRP specifies a MASTER router that owns the next hop IP and MAC address for end stations on a local area network (LAN).
PAGE 971
Figure 138. 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 972
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 101.

Delete a VRRP group. INTERFACE mode no vrrp-group vrid Examples of Configuring and Verifying VRRP The following examples how to configure VRRP.
PAGE 974
To migrate an IPv4 VRRP group from VRRPv2 to VRRPv3: 1. Set the switches with the lowest priority to “both”. 2. Set the switch with the highest priority to version to 3. 3. Set all the switches from both to version 3. NOTE: Do not run VRRP version 2 and version 3 in the same group for an extended period of time Example: Migrating an IPv4 VRRP Group from VRRPv2 to VRRPv3 NOTE: Carefully following this procedure, otherwise you might introduce dual master switches issues.

Configuring a Virtual IP Address To configure a virtual IP address, use the following commands. 1. Configure a VRRP group. INTERFACE mode vrrp-group vrrp-id The VRID range is from 1 to 255. 2. Configure virtual IP addresses for this VRID. INTERFACE -VRID mode virtual-address ip-address1 [...ip-address12] The range is up to 12 addresses. Examples of the Configuring and Verifying a Virtual IP Address The following example shows how to configure a virtual IP address.

PAGE 977
Configuring VRRP Authentication Simple authentication of VRRP packets ensures that only trusted routers participate in VRRP processes. When you enable authentication, Dell Networking OS includes the password in its VRRP transmission. The receiving router uses that password to verify the transmission. NOTE: You must configure all virtual routers in the VRRP group the same: you must enable authentication with the same password or authentication is disabled. NOTE: Authentication for VRRPv3 is not supported.

You can delay VRRP initialization to allow the IGP and EGP protocols to be enabled prior to selecting the VRRP Master. This delay ensures that VRRP initializes with no errors or conflicts. You can configure the delay for up to 15 minutes, after which VRRP enables normally.

This example does not contain comprehensive directions and is intended to provide guidance for only a typical VRRP configuration. You can copy and paste from the example to your CLI. To support your own IP addresses, interfaces, names, and so on, be sure that you make the necessary changes.

Examples of Configuring VRRP for IPv4 and IPv6 The following example shows configuring VRRP for IPv4 Router 2. R2(conf)#interface tengigabitethernet 2/31/1 R2(conf-if-te-2/31/1)#ip address 10.1.1.1/24 R2(conf-if-te-2/31/1)#vrrp-group 99 R2(conf-if-te-2/31/1-vrid-99)#priority 200 R2(conf-if-te-2/31/1-vrid-99)#virtual 10.1.1.3 R2(conf-if-te-2/31/1-vrid-99)#no shut R2(conf-if-te-2/31/1)#show conf ! interface TenGigabitEthernet 2/31/1 ip address 10.1.1.1/24 ! vrrp-group 99 priority 200 virtual-address 10.1.1.
PAGE 985
Figure 140. VRRP for an IPv6 Configuration NOTE: In a VRRP or VRRPv3 group, if two routers come up with the same priority and another router already has MASTER status, the router with master status continues to be MASTER even if one of two routers has a higher IP or IPv6 address. The following example shows configuring VRRP for IPv6 Router 2 and Router 3. Configure a virtual link local (fe80) address for each VRRPv3 group created for an interface.
PAGE 986
Although R2 and R3 have the same default, priority (100), R2 is elected master in the VRRPv3 group because the TenGigabitethernet 1/1/1 interface has a higher IPv6 address than the TenGigabitethernet 1/2/1 interface on R3.

Virtual MAC address: 00:00:5e:00:02:0a VRRP in a VRF Configuration The following example shows how to enable VRRP operation in a VRF virtualized network for the following scenarios. • Multiple VRFs on physical interfaces running VRRP. • Multiple VRFs on VLAN interfaces running VRRP. To view a VRRP in a VRF configuration, use the show commands. VRRP in a VRF: Non-VLAN Scenario The following example shows how to enable VRRP in a non-VLAN.

PAGE 990
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 1/1/1) 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 non-VLAN scenario.

PAGE 994
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.

Debugging and Diagnostics 58 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 998
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. EXEC Privilege mode show system brief 3. Start diagnostics on the unit. diag stack-unit stack-unit-number When the tests are complete, the system displays the following message and automatically reboots the unit. Dell#00:09:42 : Diagnostic test results are stored on file: flash:/ TestReport-SU-0.txt Diags completed...
PAGE 999
Auto Save on Crash or Rollover Exception information for MASTER or standby units is stored in the flash:/TRACE_LOG_DIR directory. This directory contains files that save trace information when there has been a task crash or timeout. • On a MASTER unit, you can reach the TRACE_LOG_DIR files by FTP or by using the show file command from the flash://TRACE_LOG_DIR directory.
PAGE 1000
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 1001
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 application-specific integrated circuit (ASICs) implement the key functions of queuing, feature lookups, and forwarding lookups in hardware.
PAGE 1003
• Oversubscription ratio = 10 • Dynamic Cell Limit Per port = 59040/29 = 2036 cells Figure 143. 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 1004
• 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 1005
The following example shows viewing the buffer profile allocations. The following example shows viewing the default buffer profile on an interface. The following example shows viewing the default buffer profile on a linecard. Using a Pre-Defined Buffer Profile Dell Networking OS provides two pre-defined buffer profiles, one for single-queue (for example, nonquality-of-service [QoS]) applications, and one for four-queue (for example, QoS) applications.

Mini Core Dumps Dell Networking OS supports mini core dumps on the application and kernel crashes. 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. When the flash is full, the write process is stopped. A mini core dump contains critical information in the event of a crash.
