1INTRODUCTION
This reference manual describes the console commands for the SmartCell 6A000 and SmartCell ZX-250 ATM
switches. The two switches share a common console interface and are referred to in this manual as the SmartCell
6A000/ZX-250.
Audience and Scope
The manual is intended for network administrators and o thers responsible for maintaining the SmartCell
6A000/ZX-250. You do not need to read the manual f rom start to fini sh. You can use it to study the console commands
you use.
Definitions
The manual is organized alphabetically by switch attribute.
•The definition of a switch attribute is a function that manipulates the switch in a specific way. For
example, buselan.
•The definition of an operator is the active verb that makes the switch attribute perform a specific
task. For example, show.
•The definition of a command is the combination of an operator plus a switch attribute. For exam ple,
show buselan.
Content
•Chapter 2, "SmartCell 6A0 00/ZX-250 Command s," gives definitio ns, descriptions, and examples of
all available commands on the SmartCell 6A000 and SmartCell ZX-250 switches.
•Chapter 3, “Boot Load Commands” gives definitions, descriptions, and examples of the low-level
boot load commands.
•Appendix A, "Acronyms," spells out t he ATM acronyms used in thi s manual as wel l as tho se found
in the SmartCell 6A000 User Guide, SmartCell ZX-250 User Guide, and SmartCell ZX
Administrator Installation Guide.
•Appendix B, “Cause Codes,” describes the codes that appear in some console messages.
•Appendix C, "Technical Support," gives instructions for contacting Cabletron by telephone, fax,
electronic mail, and the World Wide Web.

Introduction
Sections
Read "Switch Attribute" for an example and definition of the various sections under each switch attribute as well as a
description of how the manual is organized.
Each section begins with a switch attribute heading (for example, "PVCByID"). Then come the details of relevant
operators, parameters, and commands.
Most sections have two parameter tables—one for input and another for output. The tables contain the parameter
names, descriptions, and definitions of their values, field sizes, and defaults.
The section ends with examples copied from the switch console for each console command for that switch attribute.
Conventions
The SmartCell 6A000/ZX-250 Reference Manual uses the following conventions to convey instructions and
information:
•Information you enter (console commands an d input parameters) is shown in bold Courier 10 font
and requires a space between operator and switch attribute.
•Input and output parameters are shown in [Square Brackets].
•Input definitions are shown in <anglebrackets>, as joined text and not case sensitive.
•Filter flags </s> (summary) or </d> (detail) are available with certain show commands and apply to
different information viewing levels. Filter flags require a space between them and the full
command. For example, show client /d. The/s option is the same as the standard default option. You
can find more details at the relevant switch attribute sections. See the following examples:

Pay close attention to how switch attributes appear in each section heading. Switch attributes are not case sensitive. If
the heading states B USStat, you must t ype
See the following example:

You can, ho wever, abbreviate the switch attribute to the extent that it is unique. For example, instead of typing show
porttrafficcongestion, you can just type show portt. The same can be done with operators. Instead of typing modify,
you can type mod. You should type at least three characters for any operator. For example,
switch_prompt # mod portm
PortNumber(ALL) :
PortMode(SONET) :
switch_prompt #

"X" under any of these headings indicates the switch attribute is applicable to that software type.
Parameters
Operators make the switch attribute work. Operators pertaining to each switch attribute are listed immediately below
the "Operators" heading. The command is the switch attribute combined with the operator. A list of possible switch
operators follows. You can use an alias when a word in parentheses appears. However, only the operators not in
parentheses are used in this manual.

Most switch attribute descriptions show two tables —Input Parameter and Output Parameter. If the parameter has
already been described in the input parameter table, no reference to it appears in the output parameter table. The output
parameter table contains only parameters that have not been described in the input parameter table or that are written
very differently on output despite having the same meaning.
1-6 SmartCell 6A000/ZX-250 Reference Manual
Page 17
Introduction
Only one parameter table in a switch attribute section means either that switch attribute uses only input parameters or
that the output parameters are identical to the input parameters. The heading of the table indicates which is the case. If
the table heading says Input Parameter or Output Parameter, only input or output parameters apply to this switch
attribute. However , if the table headi ng says Par ameter, the table contains both input and output parameters, and their
field names and definitions are identical.
Some output parameters show either (</d>) or (</s>) to indicate that a filter flag is available and that parameter is
available only when you type either /d (detailed information) or /s (summarized information) after the command. If
you do not type these command extensions, the parameters do not appear. Further explanations are given at relevant
sections. See "SVC" for an example.
The following table gives details about several of the most common parameters in this ma nual; a shorter description
of these parameters appears at the relevant sections within the manual:

command does and how and when it is used. Other relev ant
information appears here.
The following is an example of a description section. It is located under "BUSELAN." Note the detailed description
of the command following the table.

existing LESELAN because their parameters need
to match.
Examples
Examples are copied exactly from the switch console to show you what yo u should see. They appear at the end of each
section in the same order as the operators are listed at the start of each section. There is no significance to the order in
which the examples appear, except that show usually appears after the other command exam ples to demonstrate ho w
a command can change a characteristic of the switch. Unless they fit on the current page, examples usually begin at
the top of a page. The location of every command example appears in the index under "Examples".
Examples show how you must enter console commands at the switch prompt (indicated in bold - modify buselan
(console command)). The other bold text (1, 103, pvc, 802.5, 4544) is the input parameters that modify this switch
attribute (BUSELAN). The text in brackets (immediately following the parameter field - for example,
ELANType(802.3)) indicates the current default. See the following examples.

IISPRoute
Use IISPRoute (interim inter-switch signaling protocol) to manipulate the IISP routes configured on the switch (see
“UNIRoute” for further routing commands).
[A TMAddress]ATM address assigned to the port, client, or server . 13-20 byte hex-based/
Up to 59 characters
[PortNumber]Port number on the switch.A1...A4, B1...B3,
C1...C4, D1...D4
[Metric]Metric value. Used when the next hop is
accessible through various parallel links. If there
are two IISP routes to a destination, every time a
call setup arrives, it is routed using one of the
parallel IISP routes, alternatively . Y o u can specify
the number of times each route is used in a row by
the metric variable.
[EntryIndex]Index into the IISP route table for the IISP ATM
address entry.
Output Parameter Description
[Length]Address length in number of bits. IISP allows you to enter any number of bits. Only
multiples of a byte (an even number of bits) can be entered and the calculated address
length is displayed.
Creates an IISP routing entry to the switch. These entries
usually use a 13-byte netprefix ATM address. Routing
between switches is decided at each segment of the path by
determining a best match of the destination address in the call
setup with address entries in the IISP routing table. When a
signaling request arrives across an IISP or UNI link, the
switch checks the destination A TM address against the entries
in the IISP address prefix table and selects the port with the
longest prefix match. The IISP table is configured with a set
of address prefixes that are accessible-each IISP port on the
switch.
[EntryIndex] < entryindex>
Administrator
Removes an IISP route. En ter sh ow iispr oute be fore e ntering
this command to display information you will need as input.
AdministratorDisplays the configured IISP routes with their UNI ATM
addresses on the switch.
AllFlushes the IISP route addresses from the switch.
You can create a default IISP route if you enter only the port number and a
weighting value [Metric] for the route (see Examples below). Y ou can set multiple
local configurations to choose one of the parallel links for next-hop routing. A
weight of “1” assigned to all parallel routes mandates alternative routing in a
round-robin fashion. In other words, given parallel routes, based on best address
matching, use the weight ing to deci de which r oute to u se. If, h owever, there is no
best address match, then use the default route. If you define more than one defau lt
route, you can weight them dif ferently , so there is a calculated decision, instead of
round-robin.
Use ILMIAdminStatus (integrated local management interface administration status) to control the operation of the
ILMI protocol on every port on the switch.
[PortNumber]Port number on the switch. ALL, A1...A4,
B1...B3, C1...C4,

MAC address for an entry to be accepted. You do
not have to specify both addresses, but whatever
you specify has to be unique. These addresses
must be added before entering this command
