Release 5.1.6.R02 User Guide Supplement June 2005 page 1-5
Page 12
802.1x guest-vlan User Documentation Addendum
802.1x guest-vlan
Configures a guest VLAN for an 802.1x port. When non-802.1x traffic is received on the specified port, it
is assigned to the guest VLAN.
802.1x slot/port guest-vlan {vid | disable}
Syntax Definitions
slot The slot number of the 802.1x port.
port The 802.1x port number.
vid The VLAN ID number that will serve as a guest VLAN for the 802.1x
port.
disable Disables the guest VLAN functionality for the 802.1x port.
Defaults
By default a guest VLAN is not configured for 802.1x ports.
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 6624, 6648, 7700, 7800, 8800
Usage Guidelines
• If a guest VLAN is already configured for the specified 802.1x port, the existing VLAN ID is overwrit-
ten with the new value. For example, if VLAN 10 is configured as a guest VLAN for 802.1x port 10/24
and this command is entered specifying VLAN 20, then VLAN 20 becomes the new guest VLAN for
the port.
• Using the disable pulmotor also removes the guest VLAN association from the 802.1x port. The func-
tionality is enabled again when a new guest VLAN is configured.
• The guest VLAN option is only available for 802.1x ports operating in the auto mode.
• Only one guest VLAN per 802.1x port is allowed.
• The VLAN ID specified with this command must already exist. VLANs are created using the vlan
command.
• Note that on an OmniSwitch 6624/6648, non-802.1x clients learned on the guest VLAN are dropped if
an 802.1x client successfully accesses the same port.
Examples
-> 802.1x 3/1 guest-vlan 5
-> 802.1x 3/1 guest-vlan disable

By default, the number of retries is set to 2.
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 6624, 6648, 7700, 7800, 8800
Usage Guideline
• The polling interval is 0.5 seconds between each retry.
• If no EAP frames are received from a device connected to an 802.1x port, the device is considered a
non-802.1x client (non-supplicant).
• If a guest VLAN is configured on the 802.1x port, the non-802.1x client is assigned to the guest
VLAN. If a guest VLAN does not exist, the device is blocked from accessing the 802.1x port.
Examples

Chapter 22, “IP Commands”
On page 22-6 the following bullet should be added to the Usage Guidelines section for the ip interface
command:
• To create an IP interface for network management purposes, specify Loopback0 (case sensitive) as the
name of the interface. The Loopback0 interface is not bound to any VLAN, so it will always remain
operationally active.
OmniSwitch 7700/7800/8800 Network Configuration Guide
The following modifications should be made:
Chapter 13, “Configuring IP”
New Section, page 13-9
The following section should be added to page 13-9:
Configuring a Loopback0 Interface
Loopback0 is the name assigned to an IP interface to identify a consistent address for network management purposes. The Loopback0 interface is not bound to any VLAN, so it will always remain operationally active. This differs from other IP interfaces in that if there are no active ports in the VLAN, all IP
interface associated with that VLAN are not active. In addition, the Loopback0 interface provides a unique
IP address for the switch that is easily identifiable to network management applications.
This type of interface is created in the same manner as all other IP interfaces, using the ip interface
command. To identify a Loopback0 interface, enter Loopback0 for the interface name. For example, the
following command creates the Loopback0 interface with an IP address of 10.11.4.1:
-> ip interface Loopback0 address 10.11.4.1
Release 5.1.6.R02 User Guide Supplement June 2005 page 1-11
Page 18
show 802.1x non-supp User Documentation Addendum
Note the following when configuring the Loopback0 interface:
• The interface name, “Loopback0”, is case sensitive.
• The admin parameter is the only configurable parameter supported with this type of interface.
• The Loopback0 interface is always active and available.
• Only one Loopback0 interface per switch is allowed.
• Creating this interface does not deduct from the total number of IP interfaces allowed per VLAN or
switch.
Loopback0 Address Advertisement
The Loopback0 IP interface address is automatically advertised by the IGP protocols RIP and OSPF when
the interface is created. There is no additional configuration necessary to trigger advertisement with these
protocols.
Note the following regarding Loopback0 advertisement:
• RIP advertises the host route to the Loopback0 IP interface as a redistributed (directhost) route.
• OSPF advertises the host route to the Loopback0 IP interface in its Router-LSAs (as a Stub link) as an
internal route into all its configured areas.
Configuring a BGP Peer Session with Loopback0
It is possible to create BGP peers using the Loopback0 IP interface address of the peering router and binding the source (i.e., outgoing IP interface for the TCP connection) to its own configured Loopback0 interface. The Loopback0 IP interface address can be used for both Internal and External BGP peer sessions.
For EBGP sessions, if the External peer router is multiple hops away, the ebgp-multihop parameter may
need to be used.
The following example command configures a BGP peering session using a Loopback0 IP interface
address:
-> ip bgp neighbor 2.2.2.2 update-source Loopback0
See the OmniSwitch 7700/7800/8800 Advanced Routing Configuration Guide for more information.
Chapter 22, “Configuring 802.1X”
Quick Steps for Configuring 802.1X
On page 22-3 the following two new steps should be added to this section:

Guest VLANs for Non-802.1x Supplicants
For those supplicants that are not 802.1x devices—do not send/receive EAP frames—an optional guest
VLAN feature is available to allow traffic from these devices on an 802.1x port. If the user-defined guest
VLAN is not available, then traffic from a non-802.1x device is dropped.
The switch determines whether or not a device is an 802.1x supplicant by sending EAP-Request/Identity
frames on the 802.1x port every 0.5 seconds for a configurable number of times. If no EAP frames are
received from a device after the specified number of attempts, the device is determined to be a non-802.1x
supplicant and is learned on the guest VLAN configured for that port. If no guest VLAN is available, then
the non-802.1x supplicant is blocked from accessing the 802.1x port and no further attempts are made to
solicit EAP frames from the device.
Note the following when using guest VLANs:
• 802.1x supplicants that fail authentication are not eligible for guest VLAN access. This type of VLAN
access is only for those devices identified as non-802.1x supplicants that have not made any attempt to
authenticate.
• Once a non-802.1x supplicant is learned on a guest VLAN, it is no longer eligible for Group Mobility
classification and assignment.
• If a non-802.1x supplicant device becomes 802.1x capable when it is a member of a guest VLAN, upon
authentication the device is automatically moved from the guest VLAN to the appropriate 802.1x specified VLAN. Disconnecting the device from the 802.1x port is not required in this scenario.
• If an authenticated 802.1x supplicant becomes non-802.1x capable, the device is moved to an existing
guest VLAN after the device is rebooted.
By default a guest VLAN is not configured on an 802.1x port. For information about how to configure a
guest VLAN, see “Configuring a Guest VLAN” on page 1-14. For information about how to set the
number of times an unknown device is polled for identification, see “Configuring the Supplicant Polling
Retry Count” on page 1-15.
New Section, page 22-11
The following section should be added to page 22-11:
Configuring a Guest VLAN
To configure a guest VLAN for an 802.1x port, use the 802.1x guest-vlan command with the relevant slot/
port number and specify an existing VLAN ID. For example:
-> 802.1x 3/1 guest-vlan 5
This command associates guest VLAN 5 with 802.1x port 3/1. When a non-802.1x supplicant is identified
on this port, the source MAC address of the supplicant is learned in VLAN 5. This MAC address is then
aged according to the aging timer value for VLAN 5.
To remove a guest VLAN from an 802.1x port, use the disable option with the 802.1x guest-vlan
command. Note that it is not necessary to specify the guest VLAN ID with this command. For example:
-> 802.1x 3/1 guest-vlan disable
Note the following when configuring a guest VLAN:
• The guest VLAN option is only available for 802.1x ports operating in the auto mode.
page 1-14 Release 5.1.6.R02 User Guide Supplement June 2005
Page 21
User Documentation Addendum show 802.1x non-supp
• Only one guest VLAN is allowed per 802.1x port.
• The VLAN ID specified must already exist in the switch configuration. Use the vlan command to
create a VLAN before configuring it as an 802.1x guest VLAN.
• If a guest VLAN is already configured for the specified 802.1x port when the 802.1x guest-vlan
command is used, the existing VLAN ID is overwritten with the new value.
Configuring the Supplicant Polling Retry Count
To configure the number of times the switch polls an unknown device connected to an 802.1x port, use the
802.1x supp-polling retry command. For example,
-> 802.1x 3/1 supp-polling retry 10
If after the number of polling attempts specified the device has not responded with EAP frames, then the
device is learned as a non-802.1x supplicant in a guest VLAN. If a guest VLAN was not configured for
the 802.1x port, the device is blocked from accessing that port and no other attempts are made to solicit
EAP frames from the device.
Note that the polling interval is set to 0.5 seconds between each retry and is not a configurable at this time.

New Section, page 2-29
The following section should be added to page 2-29:
Configuring a BGP Peer with the Loopback0 Interface
Loopback0 is the name assigned to an IP interface to identify a consistent address for network management purposes. The Loopback0 interface is not bound to any VLAN, so it will always remain operationally active. This differs from other IP interfaces in that if there are no active ports in the VLAN, all IP
interface associated with that VLAN are not active. In addition, the Loopback0 interface provides a unique
IP address for the switch that is easily identifiable to network management applications.
It is possible to create BGP peers using the Loopback0 IP interface address of the peering router and binding the source (i.e., outgoing IP interface for the TCP connection) to its own configured Loopback0 interface. The Loopback0 IP interface address can be used for both Internal and External BGP peer sessions.
For EBGP sessions, if the External peer router is multiple hops away, the ebgp-multihop parameter may
need to be used.

solicit EAP frames from the device.
Note the following when using guest VLANs:
• Non-802.1x clients learned on a guest VLAN are dropped if an 802.1x client successfully authenti-
cates on the same port. This is due to a one VLAN per port restriction (either 802.1x VLAN or guest
VLAN assignment but not both) As a result, using a hub connection to provide access for multiple
users to an 802.1x port is not recommended.
• 802.1x supplicants that fail authentication are not eligible for guest VLAN access. This type of VLAN
access is only for those devices identified as non-802.1x supplicants that have not made any attempt to
authenticate.

2 IPv6 Commands
This chapter details Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) commands for the switch (including RIPng
commands). IPv6 (documented in RFC 2460) is designed as a successor to IPv 4. The changes from IPv4
to IPv6 fall primarily into the following categories:
Expanded Routing and Addressing Capabilities - IPv6 increases the IP address size from 32 bits to 128
bits, to support more levels of addressing hierarchy and a much greater number of addressable nodes, and
simpler auto-configuration of addresses. The scalability of multicast routing is improved by adding a
"scope" field to multicast addresses.
Header Format Simplification - Some IPv4 header fields were dropped or made optional, to reduce the
common-case processing cost of packet handling and to keep the bandwidth cost of the IPv6 header as low
as possible despite the increased size of the addresses. Even though the IPv6 addresses are four times
longer than the IPv4 addresses, the IPv6 header is only twice the size of the IPv4 header.
Anycast Addressing - A new type of address called a "anycast address" is defined, to identify sets of
nodes where a packet sent to an anycast address is delivered to one of the nodes. The use of anycast
addresses in the IPv6 source route allows nodes to control the path which their traffic flows.
Improved Support for Options - Changes in the way IP header options are encoded allows for more efficient forwarding, less stringent limits on the length of options, and greater flexibility for introducing new
options in the future.
Authentication and Privacy Capabilities - IPv6 includes the definition of extensions which provide
support for authentication, data integrity, and confidentiality. This is included as a basic element of IPv6
and will be included in all implementations.
IPv6 is supported on 6600/7700/7800/8800 series switches running software Release 5.1.6 and up.
MIB information for the IPv6 and RIPng commands is as follows:

Usage Guidelines
• When you create an IPv6 interface it is enabled by default.
• Use the “no” form of the command to delete an interface.
• All IPv6 VLAN and tunnel interfaces must have a name.
• When creating an IPv6 interface you must specify a VLAN ID, Tunnel ID, or 6to4. When modifying or
deleting an interface, you do not need to specify one of these options unless the name assigned to the
interface is being changed. If it is present with a different value from when the interface was created,
the command will be in error.
• A 6to4 interface cannot send advertisements (ra-send).
• To enable IPv6 routing you must first create a VLAN, then create an IPv6 interface on the VLAN. See
Chapter 21, “VLAN Management Commands,” for information on creating VLANs.
• To route IPv6 traffic over an IPv4 network, you must create an IPv6 tunnel using the ipv6 interface
tunnel source destination command.

IPv6 Commands ping6
ping6
Used to test whether an IPv6 destination can be reached from the local switch. This command sends an
ICMPv6 echo request to a destination and then waits for a reply. To ping a destination, enter the ping6
command and enter either the destination’s IPv6 address or hostname. The switch will ping the destination using the default frame count, packet size, and interval (6 frames, 64 bytes, and 1 second respectively). You can also customize any or all of these parameters as described below.
ping6 {ipv6_address | hostname} [if_name] [count count] [size data_size] [interval seconds]
Syntax Definitions
ipv6_address IP address of the system to ping.
hostname DNS name of the system to ping.
if_name If the target is a link-local address, the name of the interface used to
reach it.
count Number of packets to be transmitted.
size Size of the data portion of the packet sent for this ping, in bytes.
seconds Interval, in seconds, at which ping packets are transmitted.
Defaults
parameter default
count 6
size 56
interval seconds 1
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 6624, 6648, 7700, 7800, 8800
Usage Guidelines
• If you change the default values they will only apply to the current ping. The next time you use the
ping command, the default values will be used unless you again enter different values.
• When the next hop address is a local link address, the name of the interface used to reach the destina-
tion must be specified.

output definitions
To ta l Total number of input packets received, including those received in
error.
Header errors Number of input packets discarded due to errors in their IPv6
headers (e.g., version number mismatch, other format errors, hop
count exceeded, errors discovered in processing their IPv6 options).
Too b ig Number of input packets that could not be forwarded because their
size exceeded the link MTU of the outgoing interface.
No route Number of input packets discarded because no route could be
found to transmit them to their destination.
Address errors Number of input packets discarded because the IPv6 address in
their IPv6 header's destination field was not a valid address to be
received at this entity. This count includes invalid addresses (e.g., ::0)
and unsupported addresses (e.g., addresses with unallocated prefixes).
Unknown protocol Number of locally-addressed packets received successfully but dis-
carded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol.
Truncated packets Number of input packets discarded because the packet frame
did not carry enough data.
Local discards Number of input IPv6 packets for which no problems were encountered
to prevent their continued processing, ut which were discarded (e.g., for
lack of buffer space). Note that this counter does not include any packets discarded while awaiting re-assembly.
Delivered to users Total number of packets successfully delivered to IPv6 user protocols
(including ICMP).
Reassembly needed Number of IPv6 fragments received that needed to be reassembled.
Reassembled Number of IPv6 packets successfully reassembled.
Reassembly failed Number of failures detected by the IPv6 reassembly algorithm (for
whatever reason: timed out, errors, etc.).
Multicast packets Number of multicast packets received.
Forwarded Number of output packets that this entity received and forwarded to
their final destinations.
Generated Total number of IPv6 packets that local IPv6 user-protocols (including
ICMP) supplied to IPv6 in requests for transmission. Note that
this counter does not include any packets counted by the Forwarded
statistic.
Local discards Number of output IPv6 packets for which no problem was encountered
to prevent their transmission to their destination, but were discarded
(e.g., for lack of buffer space). Note that this counter would include
packets counted by the Forwarded statistic if any such packets met this
(discretionary) discard criterion.
Fragmented Number of IPv6 packets successfully fragmented.
Fragmentation failed Number of IPv6 packets discarded because they needed to be frag-
mented but could not be.
Fragments generated Number of output packet fragments generated as a result of fragmenta-
tion.
Multicast packets Number of multicast packets transmitted.

ipv6 rip garbage-timer IPv6 Commands
ipv6 rip garbage-timer
Configures the RIPng garbage timer value. When a route in the RIB exceeds the configured Invalid Timer
Value, the route is moved to a “Garbage” state in the the RIB. The garbage timer is the length of time a
route will stay in this state before it is flushed from the RIB.
ipv6 rip garbage-timer seconds
Syntax Definitions
seconds Time, in seconds, that a route will remain in the RIPng Routing Table
before it is flushed from the RIB. Valid range is 0 - 180.
Defaults
parameter default
seconds 120
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 6624, 6648, 7700, 7800, 8800
Usage Guidelines
Use the ipv6 rip invalid-timer command to set the Invalid Timer Value.
Example
-> ipv6 rip garbage-timer 180
Release History

IPv6 Commands ipv6 rip holddown-timer
ipv6 rip holddown-timer
Configures the amount of time a route is placed in a holddown state. Whenever a route is seen from the
same gateway with a higher metric than the route in the RIB, the route goes into holddown. This excludes
route updates with an INFINITY metric.
ipv6 rip holddown-timer seconds
Syntax Definitions
seconds Time, in seconds, that a route will remain in a holddown state. Valid
range is 0 - 120.
Defaults
parameter default
seconds 0
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 6624, 6648, 7700, 7800, 8800
Usage Guidelines
While in holddown, the route continues being announced as usual and used in the RIB. This interval is
used to control route flap dampening.
Example
-> ipv6 rip holddown-timer 60

ipv6 rip jitter IPv6 Commands
ipv6 rip jitter
Configures an offset value for RIPng updates. This is the maximum (positive or negative) value that can
be used to offset the update interval. For example, with an update interval of 30 seconds, and a jitter value
of 5 seconds, the RIPng update packet would be sent somewhere (random) between 25 and 35 seconds
from the previous update.
ipv6 rip jitter value
Syntax Definitions
value Time, in seconds, that a routing update is offset. Valid range is 0 to one-
half the updated interval value (e.g., if the updated interval is 30, the
range would be 0 - 300).
Defaults
parameter default
value 5
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 6624, 6648, 7700, 7800, 8800
Usage Guidelines
As you increase the number of RIPng interfaces/peers, it is recommended that you increase the Jitter value
to reduce the number of RIPng updates being sent over the network.
Example
-> ipv6 rip jitter 10
