1.1 Features

The XG700 is a compact, 12-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2 switch, which provides the world's highest level throughput and least delay. Special features of the XG700 are shown below:

Item Function Features

Throughput 240Gbit/s Latency 450ns Switching mode Either store-and-forward or cut-through is selectable. MAC address learning table size

8192 entries

MAC address learning SVL (Shared VLAN Learning), IVL (Independent VLAN Learning),

user selectable. Jumbo frame support Up to 15KB. Flow control IEEE802.3x compliant pause frame control. Possible to specify flow

control options for each port: send/receive or receive only. Storm control Detects the broadcast storm status to prevent the traffic from

overflowing the network and avoid degrading overall system

performance. Port security Possible to restrict port access based on a source MAC address. Ingress rate control Supports by-port ingress rate control. Port mirroring Possible to monitor the incoming/outgoing traffic by port mirroring.

Basic Switch Functions

Link pass through Possible to synchronize the link state of a monitored port with the

link state of a single or multiple ports. Link aggregation (Static and LACP)

Possible to increase bandwidth and redundancy. (Up to 6 ports for

each link).

Also supports IEE802.3ad LACP.

Scalability

Uplink Filter Filtering multicast, broadcast and unlearned unicast frames from

leaf nodes to uplink. Possible to configure fat tree using several XG

series.

Redundancy IEEE802.1D STP,

IEEE802.1w RSTP

Possible to make redundant and loop-free network using Rapid

2.1 Overview of the CLI

This section describes how to use the command line interface (CLI) for the XG Series.

2.1.1 Operating Environment for CLI

There are two ways to access the XG700 to run commands. Up to 4 terminal sessions can access the XG700 concurrently.

 Serial connection

Connect to the serial port of the XG700 using RS232C cable. The available terminal type is VT100. When initially connecting a terminal to the XG700, configure the serial port on the client side as shown below.

Item Setting value

Baud rate 9600 bps (can be changed) Character size 8 bit Parity None Stop bits 1 bit Flow control None Emulation VT100 Character set ASCII Line feed code Transmission: CR (carriage return) only

Reception: LF is added

The baud rate can be changed to one of 9600, 19200, 38400 and 57600 (bps) using the "baud-rate" command.

 Remote connection via management LAN port

Connect a terminal to the management LAN port of the XG700 using a telnet client (TCP port of 23 is used for the default telnet connection). The following tables list the factory defaults.

Management LAN Interface initial settings

Item Setting value

IP address None (must be set when using the management

LAN)

Subnet address None (must be set when using the management

LAN)

Telnet server initial settings

Item Setting value

Use telnet Disable (can be changed) Port number 23(TCP) Emulation VT100/VT200/xterm BackSpace key Delete Character set ASCII

To use the remote connection via management LAN port, use the "management-lan ip" command to configure the management LAN port for the XG700 and use the "telnet-server" command to enable the telnet service. VT100, VT200, and xterm can be used as a terminal.

2.1.2 Command Modes and Mode Switching

The following table shows a hierarchy of command modes and mode switching.

Command Modes and Prompt Text

(host name for XG700: xg)

Outline

Operator class The initial-level operating mode entered upon logging into the

system.

Operator EXEC mode

Prompt: xg>

Allows access to commands that have no effect on the switch operations. With the XG700, this mode is mainly used to view its status. The prompt changes to "xg>".

Administrator class To enter this level, use the "enable" command in the operator class

or type the administrator's authentication password.

Administrator EXEC mode Prompt: xg#

Allows users to perform operations that are related to the system management of the XG700, such as date/time setting and firmware update, in addition to those operations that are performed in the operator EXEC mode. The prompt changes to "xg#".

Global configuration mode

Prompt: xg(config)#

To switch to the global configuration mode, enter the "configure terminal" command in the administrator EXEC mode. This mode allows the user to define the environment settings for the XG700 that are to be saved in a configuration file. The prompt changes to "xg(config)#".

Interface edit mode

Prompt: xg(config-if)# or xg(config-agg)#

To enter the interface edit mode, enter the "interface" command in the global configuration mode. This mode allows the user to configure each port of the switch. The interface edit mode is represented by prompt "xg(config-if)#", while the edit mode for a port that is created with link aggregation function is represented by prompt "xg(config-agg)#".

Terminal edit mode

Prompt: xg(config-line)#

To enter the serial terminal edit mode, enter the "line console" command in the global configuration mode. The prompt changes to "xg(config-line)#". Baud rate of the serial terminal and screen display size can be set.

XG700 User's Guide

14/266

ll Rights Reserved, Copyright (C) PFU LIMITED 2005-2006

Entering a specific command allows switching from one mode to another. Entering the "exit" command will always take you back to the previous mode. Entering "end" command or pressing [Ctrl] and [Z] simultaneously in the global configuration, interface edit or terminal edit mode allows you to enter the administrator EXEC mode. An example is given below.

xg> enable

xg# configure terminal

xg(config)# interface port 1

xg(config-if)# exit

xg(config)# exit

xg# copy running-config startup-config

xg# exit

Switch to operator EXEC mode by performing a login operation. By default, the login username is "admin" and password "password".

Use the "enable" command to switch to administrator EXEC mode.

Use the "configure terminal" command to switch to global configuration mode. Use the "interface" command to switch to interface edit mode.

Use the "exit" command to return to global configuration mode.

Use the "exit" command to return to administrator EXEC mode.

Copy the current configuration file in memory to the startup-config in the nonvolatile memory. User is logged out and session is disconnected.

 Multiple users can use the operator and administrator EXEC modes concurrently. (Up to 4 terminals)  Only one terminal can switch to one of either global configuration, interface edit and terminal edit modes. It is not

possible for multiple terminals to simultaneously switch to global configuration mode.

2.1.3 startup-config and running-config

The XG700 configuration information is saved to startup-config and running-config files. This section describes the functions of the startup-config and running-config files.

 startup-config

Startup-config is the configuration file that stores the environment settings that are enabled upon XG700 startup. The startup-config is saved in non-volatile memory and read the next time the XG700 begins to be used for the initial settings on the operating environment.

 running-config

Running-config is a file stored in volatile memory that represents the operating environment of the system on which the XG700 is currently running. The information stored in the running-config will be lost when the system is restarted. To reflect the system configuration that is active in the current running-config the next time the system is started, use the "copy" command to save them to the startup-config file.

xg# copy running-config startup-config

The contents of the startup-config and running-config match immediately after the XG700 is started.

 How to upload startup-config and running-config

To download the configuration information that was uploaded to the TFTP server as startup-config, run the "copy" command.

xg# show running-config | tftp HOST REMOTE-FILE

xg# show startup-config | tftp HOST REMOTE-FILE

 How to download startup-config

To download the configuration information that was uploaded to the TFTP server as startup-config, run the "copy" command.

xg# copy tftp HOST REMOTE-FILE startup-config

To enable the settings downloaded to startup-config, restart the XG700 using the "reset" command.

 Be sure to upload the contents of the startup-config file to a TFTP server because the contents will be

overwritten.

 Refer to "Uploading/Downloading Configuration File

" for details on uploading and downloading

configuration.

2.2 Using the CLI

2.2.1 How to Enter Commands

 Command Entry Format

Separate each command, subcommand and argument with a single space.

<command> <subcommand> <argument 1> <argument 2> ... (" " indicates a space.)

xg(config)# management-interface ip 192.168.1.10/24 default-gw 192.168.1.150 xg(config)# management-interface dns-server 192.168.1.150

 Characters that can be entered:

− Any letter (A-Z, a-z) and digit (0-9)

− Space (ASCII code: 0x20)

− Symbols: !, ". #, $, %, `, ', (, ), _, -, ~, ^, ¥, {, }, :, +, ,, ., @, =, [, ], &, *, ;, /, ?, |, >

Command and option separators are recognized by one or more space characters (ASCII code: 0x20). Enclose a parameter in quotes if it contains a blank space. The commands are not case-sensitive. Note that some entries (password, etc.) are case-sensitive.

2.2.2 Context-Sensitive Help

Entering a question mark "?" during command entry displays a list of commands available for each command mode. You can also get a list of any command's associated keywords and parameters with the context-sensitive help.

 A list of commands that are available in the current mode

Entering a question mark "?" at the system prompt displays a list of commands and brief descriptions available for the current command mode.

xg # ? Exec commands: boot-system Select system to restart clear Reset functions configure Enter configuration mode copy Copy from one file to another date Display or set current date-time delete Delete local files dir Display local files :

(The rest is omitted.)

xg# _

 Word help

If you type a question mark "?" in the middle of a command name, the CLI lists possible command completions that forward-match the letters you have typed. The prompt will show the letters that you typed. You only have to type in the rest of the letters to complete the command entry.

xg # co? Exec commands: configure Enter configuration mode copy Copy from one file to another xg# co_

The CLI lists all possible commands that begin with "co".

 A list of options that are available in the current entry position

If you type a question mark "?" following a space after typing a command name, the CLI lists the names of commands that can be entered at the current option position. For option 2 and 3 positions, the CLI also lists options that can be entered at these positions. The prompt will show the letters that you typed. You only have to type in the rest of the letters to complete the command entry.

xg# configure ? terminal Configure from the terminal

xg# configure _

CLI lists possible options that follow the "configure" command.

The <cr> symbol appears in the list to indicate that you can execute the command without entering any subsequent options. Parameters enclosed in square brackets can be omitted and, therefore, the <cr> symbol does not appear.

XG700 User's Guide

17/266

2.2.3 Command Completion

If you enter part of a command or option and press the [Tab] key, the CLI displays the remaining command or option characters.

xg# con<TAB> ↓

xg# configure _

For example, the only command that begins with "con" is "configure", so the CLI completes the command name as "configure". If you press the [TAB] key, the CLI lists all possible command or option names.

xg# con<TAB> configure copy xg# co_

Since there are two commands that begin with "co" - "configure" and "copy" - the CLI lists these two.

2.2.4 Command Abbreviation

Commands and options can be abbreviated to the minimum number of characters as long as command or option names are unique and forward-match the entered letters.

xg# con t

For example, you can abbreviate the "configure" command to "con" because "configure" is the only command that begins with "con", and "terminal" to "t" because "terminal" is the only command that begins with "t".

2.2.5 Command-Line Error Messages

The table below shows error messages that appear when you incorrectly enter a command. The "configure terminal" command is used as an example below:

Error Message Explanation

xg# co t % Ambiguous command: "co t"

You did not enter enough characters for the CLI to recognize the command. Re-enter the correct command string.

xg# configure % Incomplete command.

You did not enter all of the options or values required by this command entry. Set all necessary options and values.

xg# configure aerminal ^ % Invalid input detected at '^' marker

You entered a command improperly. A caret symbol (^) indicates the incorrect entry. Change incorrect entries and execute the command again.

xg# coc? % Unrecognized command

You typed part of a command that is not found with the context-sensitive help. Re-enter the correct command string.

2.2.6 Scrolling Down or Up a Line or a Page

When the information displayed by a command is wider than the console screen, a "--More--" prompt is displayed at the bottom of the screen and the CLI waits for a user entry.

xg# show running-config ! interface port 0

: :

(The rest is omitted.)

--More--

 Scrolling Up a Line

To scroll up one line, press the [Enter] key.

 Scrolling Up a Page

To scroll up one page, press the [Space] bar.

 Finishing Displaying

To finish displaying, press the [q] or [Q] key.

 To list the command history:

Use the "show history" command to view the list of commands saved in the history: For each login up to 100 lines of command history can be registered.

2.2.8 Aborting Command

An executing command can be aborted by pressing the [Ctrl]+[C]. Note that this key sequence may not be effective for some commands.

2.2.9 No Form of Commands

Almost every configuration command has a no form. In general, the no form is used to cancel the settings with a configuration command or restore default values. Type "no" before entering a command name. For details of parameters and meanings that differ depending on commands, refer to " Command Reference".

2.2.10 Filtering show Command Output

This function allows you to filter show command outputs to extract the lines that satisfy specific conditions (filter for strings). This function is useful in excluding unnecessary information from a large amount of output. To use it, a "show" command must be followed by a keyword (pipe (|), begin, include or exclude) and a regular expression (filtering condition).

Syntax

show       | {begin | include | exclude} regular-expression

Keyword for filtering output Meaning

begin

Begins output starting at the first line that matches given regular expression parameters.

exclude

Displays output lines that do not contain those lines that match given regular expression parameters.

include

Displays output lines that match given regular expression parameters.

xg# show history | begin 2 ...skipping 2 configure terminal 3 show running-config 4 show history 5 show history | begin 2

xg# show history | exclude 2 1 enable 3 show users 4 show history

xg# show history | include 2 2 configure terminal 5 show history | begin 2

Regular expressions are case sensitive. For example, if you enter "| exclude strings", lines that include "String" are output, but those that include "strings" are not.

2.2.11 Redirecting show Command Output

You can redirect the output of "show" commands to a file in volatile memory using ">" or "| redirect".

Syntax (To redirect the output of a show command to a file in volatile memory:)

show       > FILE-NAME show       | redirect FILE-NAME

 FILE-NAME

Specify a file name in the volatile memory to which the output of the command is redirected.

"| tftp" allows you to directly redirect the output of a show command to a file in a TFTP server.

Syntax (To directly redirect the output of a show command to a file in a TFTP server:)

show       | tftp HOST REMOTE-FILE  HOST

Specify a host name or IP address of the TFTP server.

 REMOTE-FILE

Specify the file name in the TFTP server to which the output of the command is redirected.

In the following example, the current startup-config is redirected as filename "startup_09302005", the running-config file is redirected as filename "running_09302005", and system information is redirected as filename "system_09302005". The results of the redirection are confirmed with the "ls" command. Then, using the "tftp" command, each of these files is moved to the TFTP server.

xg# show startup-config > startup_09302005 xg# show running-config > running_09302005 xg# show system information > system_09302005 xg# ls

(ls command output)

Update-time File-size File-name

- 2005/09/30 11:57:27 872 system_09302005

- 2005/09/30 11:54:01 2,310 startup_09302005

- 2005/09/30 11:55:58 2,437 running_09302005 xg# tftp put remote-host1 startup_09302005 restore_startup_09302005

4.1 Basic Switch Functions

This section describes the basic switch functions.

4.1.1 Switching Mode

The XG700 provides the following two switching modes.

 Store-and-forward switching mode

After the XG700 has finished receiving a frame, it checks the FCS (Frame Check Sequence) and performs a validity check (on packet size, etc.) before forwarding the frame. If the switch receives a frame with an error frame, it discards it.

 Cut-through switching mode

The XG700 transmits the frame to the destination as soon as the first 64 bytes of the frame are received with no errors. Since the XG700 starts transmitting the frame before it has received the entire frame, this mode allows forwarding at low latency.

To change the switching modes, carry out the following procedures in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# bridge forward-mode {cut-through | store-and-forward }

xg(config)# no bridge forward-mode

Select the cut-through (or store-and-forward) for the switching mode.

xg(config)# exit

Exit to administrator EXEC mode.

4.1.2 MAC Address Table Management

MAC address table is a database used for managing the association between address information and destination ports. The XG700 can learn up to 8912 entries of MAC addresses.

 MAC address table management

The XG700 has two management methods for MAC address table management.

− SVL(Shared VLAN Learning)

The XG700 learns MAC addresses common to all VLANs. Different VLAN with identical MAC addresses are treated as identical entries.

− IVL(Independent VLAN Learning)

4.1.3 Jumbo Frame Support

The XG700 can transmit jumbo frames of up to 15KB (15360 bytes). To configure jumbo frame support, carry out the following procedure in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# bridge jumbo-frame [{9216 | 12288 | 15360}]

xg(config)# no bridge jumbo-frame

xg(config)# exit

Exit to administrator EXEC mode.

 If the maximum jumbo frame size is set to 15360, flow control is set to "only-receive" and unable to be set to

"send-receive".

4.1.4 Flow Control

Flow control is a function to prevent frame loss when the receive buffer in the switch overflows due to temporary traffic overload by using a PAUSE frame. When XG700 has received a PAUSE frame, it temporarily stops sending frames at the receive port. If space in the receive buffer runs out, it is possible to restrict frame transmission from the connected device by sending a PAUSE frame. For each port, it is possible to select whether or not to send a PAUSE frame. Select the mode depending on whether the destination can control a PAUSE frame. To change the flow control mode, carry out the following procedures in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# interface port 1 2 3

xg(config)# interface port range 1 3

Switch to the interface edit mode for the port for which you want to change the flow control mode. In this example, the global interface configuration mode is selected for ports 1 through 3.

xg(config-if)# flowcontorol { only-receive | send-receive }

4.1.5 Storm Control

The XG700 discards broadcast frames when the number of received broadcast frames is over a given threshold to prevent unnecessary waste of bandwidth due to retained broad cast frames on the network. This function is called "Storm Control". For each port, it is possible to configure storm control. When broadcast frames are discarded by Storm Control, error logs are output, after which storm control logging is disabled. To re-enabled logging, violations must be cleared with "clear violation". To configure Storm Control, carry out the following procedures in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# interface port 1 2 3

xg(config)# interface port range 1 3

Switch to the interface edit mode for the port for which you want to change the flow control mode. In this example, the global interface configuration mode is selected for ports 1 though 3.

xg(config-if)# storm-control

Enable storm control.

xg(config-if)# exit

Exit to global configuration mode.

xg# exit

Exit to administrator EXEC mode.

4.1.6 Port Security

Port security blocks connections attempted by unregistered hosts. When a host MAC address is registered, the XG700 receives only those frames that use permitted MAC addresses as source address. For each port, it is possible to configure port security. To register a MAC address for a host, use the "bridge mac-address-table static". The port to which the host is connected must be registered as a member port. In Independent VLAN Learning mode, this must be done for all VLANs that permit transmission. Either of the following two modes can be specified for a security-violating (unregistered) frame the XG700 receives.

− Restrict mode

Filters violating frames only, forwarding permitted frames.

− Shutdown mode

Filters all frames upon reception of a violating frame.

Once a security violation is detected, an error log is recorded. No further detection of a violating frame will cause an error log to be recorded until security violations are reset by "clear violation". To configure Port Security, carry out the following procedures in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# interface port 1 2 3

xg(config)# interface port range 1 3

Switch to the interface edit mode for the port for which you want to change the flow control mode. In this example, the global interface configuration mode is selected for ports 1 though 3.

xg(config-if)# port-security violation {restrict | shutdown}

Enable Port Security.

xg(config_if)# clear violation

Clear security violations.

xg(config-if)# exit

Exit to global configuration mode.

xg# exit

Exit to administrator EXEC mode.

4.1.7 Ingress Rate Control

It is possible to set ingress rate limiting value for each port in approximately 40Mbps increments. To set an ingress rate limiting value, carry out the following procedures in the administrator EXEC mode.

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# interface port 1 2 3

xg(config)# interface port range 1 3

Switch to the interface edit mode for the port for which you want to change the flow control mode. In this example, the global interface configuration mode is selected for ports 1 though 3.

xg(config-if)# ingress-bandwidth <40-10000>

Specify an ingress rate limiting value.

xg(config-if)# exit

Exit to global configuration mode.

xg# exit

Exit to administrator EXEC mode.

The ingress rate is measured at 100us time intervals. Should burst transfer take place at intervals of 100us or over, the ingress rate the XG700 actually allows may be less than the specified value.

4.3 Link Pass Through

Link Pass Through is a function that monitors the status of a link for a specified port and notifies the device connected to a port (to which a link status notification is sent) of the link status of a monitored port by synchronizing the monitored port with the link status of that port.

This function allows the XG700 to notify the port to which link status notification is sent of a link fault if it is detected in a monitored port. Link pass through indicates the link fault status to the other port by sending a remote fault (RF) signal, as prescribed in IEEE802.3ae LFS (Link Fault Signaling). When the link status of the monitored port is restored to normal, the other port is also restored to normal, the network line having been recovered. To configure Link Pass Through, carry out the following procedure in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# link-pass-through { monitored-port <1-12> | monitored-agg-port <1-6>} [domino-port <1-12> [<1-12>   ]] [domino-agg-port <1-6> [<1-6>   ]]

4.4 Link Aggregation

Link aggregation is a function that combines multiple ports into a single logical link. A set of ports that comprise a logical link is called an Aggregation Group. Link aggregation provides:

 Increased bandwidth

By grouping multiple physical ports into a single logical link (an aggregation group), you can balance network traffic (data to send and receive) across the physical ports, which provides increased bandwidth.

 Redundancy

Multiplexing ports allows uninterrupted network operations should one of the multiple ports fail or a failure occurs. Since the link status of the logical aggregation groups remains unchanged, there are no fluctuations in the network, the effect of a fault having been minimized.

Up to 6 ports can be used to create a single link aggregation group using Link Aggregation. Up to 6 aggregation groups can be created.

4.4.1 Configuring Link Aggregation

Either static or dynamic (also known as LACP) configuration can be selected for Link Aggregation.

 Static configuration

Configures aggregation groups statically.

 LACP

Configures link aggregation using Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). The LACP is a switch-to-switch control protocol that enables dynamic configuration of aggregation groups and is standardized by the IEEE802.3ad. The LACP facilitates determination of consistency with devices connected. Either "active" or "passive" LACP mode can be selected.

− active

The XG700 starts LACP negotiation. Since the active mode allows the reception of LACP control frames, it is

possible to connect the XG700 with "active" mode.

− passive

The XG700 responds to LACP control frames but does not start LACP negotiation.

To configure static link aggregation, carry out the following procedure in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# link-aggregation agg-port <1-6> protocol none port <1-12> <1-12>   

Set numbers you assign to the aggregation groups to be created (agg-port) and numbers you assign to ports that make up link aggregation (port). Specify "none" in "protocol" for static configuration.

xg(config)# interface agg-port <1-6>

To change the setting of the aggregation group created, switch to the interface edit mode for the aggregation group using the "interface agg-port" command. The prompt changes to "config-agg".

xg(config-agg)# port-vlan-id vlan 2

(Optional) Change the setting of the aggregation group. In this example, default VLAN ID is set to 2.

xg(config-agg)# exit

Exit to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# exit

Exit to administrator EXEC mode.

To configure LACP link aggregation, carry out the following procedure in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# link-aggregation agg-port <1-6> protocol lacp lacp-mode {active | passive } port <1-12> <1-12>   

Set numbers you assign to the aggregation groups to be created (agg-port) and numbers you assign to ports that make up link aggregation (port). Specify "lacp" in "protocol" for LACP link aggregation and specify the desired negotiation operational mode in "lacp-mode".

xg(config)# interface agg-port <1-6>

To change the setting of the aggregation group created, switch to the interface edit mode for the aggregation group using the "interface agg-port" command. The prompt changes to "config-agg".

xg(config-agg)# port-vlan-id vlan 2

(Optional) Change the setting of the aggregation group. In this example, default VLAN ID is set to 2.

4.4.2 Frame Distribution Methods in Link Aggregation

How frames are distributed to physical ports that make up an aggregation group is determined by contents of a frame (source and destination MAC addresses). There are three ways to specify how frames are distributed:

 Frame distribution based on destination MAC address (dst-mac)

The destination port is determined based on the destination MAC address of the frames.

 Frame distribution based on source MAC address (src-mac)

The destination port is determined based on the source MAC address of the frames.

 Frame distribution based on destination and source MAC addresses (dst-src-mac)

The destination port is determined based on the destination and source MAC addresses of the frames.

 If there are not many MAC addresses to be distributed on an aggregation group, the distribution

among the destination ports tends to become biased. To reduce such bias, use a distribution method that uses more MAC addresses. For example, if a server is connected to an aggregation group and a client is connected to a different port, it is recommended that you use either "src-mac" or "dst-src-mac".

To set a distribution method, carry out the following procedure in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# link-aggregation agg-port <1-6> protocol {none | lacp} load-balance dst-mac|src-mac|dst-src-mac} port <1-12> <1-12>   

Specify a distribution method in the load-balance parameter of the "link-aggregation" command.

xg(config)# exit

Exit to administrator EXEC mode.

4.4.3 The Number of Ports That Require Linkup

It is possible to specify the number of ports in a linkup state as conditions for enabling linkup for an aggregation group. If the number of ports that make up an aggregation group in a linkup state is less than the specified number of ports, the aggregation group changes to a linkdown state.

 For static link aggregation

If the number of ports that make up an aggregation group in a linkup state no longer satisfies the specified number of ports, the aggregation group changes to a linkdown state.

 For LACP link aggregation

If the number of ports that make up an aggregation group for LACP has been established no longer satisfied the specified number of ports, the aggregation group changes to a linkdown state.

To set the number of ports in the aggregation group, carry out the following procedure in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# link-aggregation agg-port <1-6> protocol {none | lacp} minimum-port <1-12> port <1-12> <1-12>   

Specify the required number of ports in "minimum-port" parameter of the "link-aggregation" command. The default value for "minimum-port" parameter is 1.

xg(config)# exit

Exit to administrator EXEC mode.

4.4.4 Notes on Link Aggregation

The port in aggregation group whose number is the smallest serves as a master port. The setting of an aggregation group immediately after the establishment of link aggregation take over the same settings as those for the master port, excluding the portion of it. The setting that is not taken over from those for the master port are:

 "link-pass-through"

Set for the ports to be configured is cleared.

 The information registered in MAC address table

All entries which will become port members that configure aggregation are cleared.

 "spanning-tree port-path-cost"

Will be adjusted to match the number of ports that configures aggregation.

When changing the settings for aggregation group that has already been created, the aggregation group changes to a linkdown state, and then to a linkup state if one of the following conditions satisfied.

 A master port has been removed  A master port has been changed  The "protocol" or "lacp-mode" parameter has been changed

4.5 Uplink Filter

When an uplink domain is defined, the domain's uplink domain port filters (drops) multicast, broadcast and unlearned (flooding) unicast frames from non-membership downlink ports. However it does not filter learned unicast frames that are forwarded based on MAC table.

The uplink filter is useful in configuring large networks with multiple paths, such as a fat tree network, by cascading multiple XG series switches.

To configure an uplink filter, specify an uplink domain whose membership consists of one or more downlink ports and one or more uplink ports. For example, in the fat tree network, an uplink domain is configured such that ports connected to switches are designated as uplink ports, and leaf nodes as downlink ports. The uplink domain will then block multicast, broadcast and flooding unicast frames to other uplink domains configured within the switch and only distribute traffic from the downlink to the uplink ports within that domain.

If an uplink filter is specified to have multiple uplink ports, link aggregation and redundancy are provisioned within that domain. The uplink filter differs from link aggregation in that the uplink ports within the uplink domain can be connected to different switches or equipment to ensure redundancy within the various uplink ports.

XG700 User's Guide

36/266

ll Rights Reserved, Copyright (C) PFU LIMITED 2005-2006

When specifying multiple uplink ports within an uplink domain, frame distribution among the uplink ports is performed as equally from port to port and not by type of frame. Frame distribution changes automatically when a fail-over or fail-back occurs, providing uplink redundancy.

4.6 Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)

The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a function that prevents loops from occurring on a network. It is also possible to provide network redundancy by intentionally creating a loop. STP exclusively uses only one active path between network devices, and shuts out other paths, to avoid network loops. An active path is selected by comparing path costs defined on each path. After the comparison, the lowest cost path will be selected. If the selected path becomes disabled, STP will activate the lowest cost path among the paths remaining. The XG700 supports IEEE802.1w RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol). The RSTP is upward compatible with IEEE802.1D STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) and serves as an STP if the destination device supports the STP only.

4.6.1 Port Roles Based on Spanning Tree

The RSTP assigns one of these port roles to individual ports:

 Root port

Provides the best path (lowest cost) when the switch forwards packets to the root switch.

 Designated port

Connects to the designated switch toward the leaves of the spanning tree. The port of the specified switch to connect the designated port serves as a root port.

 Alternate Port

Provides an alternative port with the second lowest path cost. In the event that the root port becomes a linkdown state, alternative port serves as a root port. It does not always send or receive any frames while it is in the blocking state.

 Backup Port

Provides an alternative path of the path specified by the specific path. In the event that the specified port becomes a linkdown state, backup port serves as a designated port. It does not always send or receive any frames while it is in the blocking state.

 Disabled Port

Disabled port, it does not send or receive any frames.

4.6.2 Spanning Tree Protocol Port States

The port states defined by the STP are:

 Discard

Shows the port is in "discarding state. BPDUs only are received.

 Learn

Shows the port is in "learning" state. A port in the learning state learns the destination MAC address of the receive frames but does not participate in frame forwarding.

 Forward

Shows the port is ready to transmit data traffic.

The STP states "blocking" and "listening" have been merged into a unique RSTP "discarding" state. The correspondence between STP port states and RTSTP port states is shown below.

4.7.2 Tag-Based (IEEE802.1Q) VLAN

Tag-based VLAN is a method to configure VLANs so that the frame forwarding decision is based on the extra tag in the MAC header which identifies the VLAN membership. It adds 4 bytes of information called a VLAN tag to a frame, and identifies the VLAN to which the frame belongs. Using VLAN tag enables a configuration that allows a single physical link to be shared by multiple VLANs. XG700's tag-based VLAN function is based on the IEEE 802.1Q standard.

4.7.3 Multiple VLAN

Identifier or TPID: Tag Protocol Identifier is 0x8100 in IEEE 802.1Q. With the user-defined VLAN tag protocol identifier, the IEEE 802.1Q standard tag can be replaced with a user-defined VPID, allowing for encapsulation in a multiple-tag VLAN.

For the frame format, refer to TPID (Tag Protocol Identifier) in "Tag VLAN Frame Format

Using Multiple VLAN (also known as double tagging or Q in Q) allows a service provider to transparently forward customers' VLAN traffic even if the service provider assigns customers traffic to different VLANs.

To configure multiple VLAN using user-defined VLAN tag protocol identifier, carry out the following procedures in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# vlan <1-4094> [ name VLAN_NAME ]

4.8 Quality of Service (QoS)

The XG700 provides Quality of Service (QoS) that is based on the IEEE802.1p standard. The XG700 QoS determines the priority of frames at the ingress side using DiffServ, VLAN tag (including priority tag) or port's default priority. Their priorities are mapped to 4 output queues. These queues are processed in the precedence order. The QoS transmits frames in order of their priority. With the XG700, you can set:

 DiffServ

Select the QoS using the IPv4 header or DiffServ Code Point included in the IPv6 header.

 Default priority

Set default priority of 0 to 7 for each port. For frames whose priority has not been set (VLAN-untagged frames). the default priority is assigned as the priority value of the frame.

 Mapping to output queues

The XG700 is equipped with four output queues with different levels (0 to 3). Frames are transmitted in order of output queue priority.

Each priorities are mapped to specified output queue.

To set the default priority and output queue mapping, carry out the following procedure in the administrator EXEC mode.

Command Task

xg# configure terminal

Switch to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# interface port 1 2 3

xg(config)# interface port range 1 3

Switch to interface edit mode for the port for which you want to set the default QoS priority. In this example, the global interface configuration mode is selected for ports 1 though 3.

xg(config-if)# qos default-priority <0-7>

Set the frame's default priority when a frame whose priority has not been set (VLAN-untagged frame) arrives.

xg(config-if)# exit

Exit to global configuration mode.

xg(config)# bridge diffserv-tos {ipv4 | ipv6}

(Optional) Used to enable QoS based on DiffServ Code Point.

xg(config)# qos-map priority <0-7> output-priority <0-3>

Set the level of output queue you want to map to each frame that has its own priority value when forwarding them.

xg(config)# exit

Exit to administrator EXEC mode.

xg# show qos [ { default-priority | qos-map } ]

Show the QoS setting status.

4.9 IGMP Snooping

IP multicast is often used to distribute multimedia data, including video and voice, over a network. A general layer 2 switch floods multicast frames, causing absorption of unnecessary network bandwidth. A layer 3 switch that supports Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) manages multicast groups using IGMP packets. The XG700 controls to forward IP multi packets to required ports only by snooping IGMP packets between these layer 3 switches, preventing unnecessary flooding. This function is called "IGMP Snooping". The XG700 supports IGMP snooping for IGMP v1/v2/v3.

 IGMP v3 does not support source IP addressing and filtering.  IGMP snooping and uplink filter function cannot be used at the same time.

4.9.1 Registering Group Members

Upon reception of an IGMP Report message, the XG700 registers a multicast MAC address with the MAC address table for the port that received the IGMP Report message and the port to which a multicast router is connected.

The following figure shows the relationship between the registered IP multicast address and the multicast MAC address. MAC addresses that are registered with IGMP snooping are between 0100.5E00.0000 and 0100.5E7F.FFFF. An IP multicast address is 32 bits, of which the first 4 bits are always 1110, which are followed by 28 bits to represent its own address information. Of these 28 bits, the lower order 23 bits are mapped to a MAC address and the data in the higher order 5 bits is not used. Therefore 32 IP multicast addresses are mapped to the same single MAC address.

4.9.2 Removing Group Members

The group members registered by IGMP snooping are removed under the following status.

 If after receiving an IGMP Report message for group registration, the group member interval expires before the XG700

receives another IGMP Report message, it removes that group member. The default setting for the group member interval is 260 seconds.

 If an IGMP Leave message is sent from a host, the multicast router sends out an IGMP Specific Query (GSQ)

message to determine that the host has left the group. If after receiving the IGMP Leave message, the last member interval expires before the XG700 receives another IGMP Report message, it removes that group member. The default setting for the last member interval is 2 seconds.

XG700 User's Guide

4.9.3 Managing Group Members

When network congestion causes Leave message loss or there is a terminal that uses IGMPv1, the multicast router does not receive Leave messages. The multicast router sends out an IGMP General Query message to all terminals (IP address:

224.0.0.1) at intervals (query interval) to determine membership information. Upon reception of an IGMP General Query message, a terminal, a member of the group, returns an IGMP Report message to maintain membership to the group.

In consideration of General Query or Report message loss caused by network congestion, it is recommended that the value that satisfies the following equation be taken as the group member interval for the XG700.

 Group member interval = (query interval for multicast router) × 2 + 10 (seconds)

Since RFC defines the default query interval for multicast router as 125 seconds, the XG700 uses 260 seconds for the default group member interval.

4.9.4 IGMP Querier

In a general network configuration, the multicast router periodically sends out an IGMP General Query message to determine if the hosts on the network are members of any multicast groups by receiving a response from the hosts. IGMP Querier is a function that acts as a proxy for a multicast router when it is not included in a network segment to send an IGMP General Query message to all terminals. The number of Query messages issued is configured using the "ip snooping vlan send-query-count" command. The frequency at which the General Query messages are sent (query interval) is automatically calculated by the following equation based the frequency at which the Query messages are sent and the group member interval.

 Query interval = (Group membership interval - 10)/send query count (seconds)

The default setting for the Query interval is 125 seconds.

Upon reception of an IGMP Leave message, the XG700 sends an IGMP Specific Query (GSQ) message to determine that the host is interested in leaving the group. If an IGMP Specific Query message is sent as many times as specified by the send query count and a terminal does not respond with an IGMP Report message, that group is removed.

 Generally, IGMP Querier uses "0.0.0.0" for the source IP address when sending a Query message.

Since some client software does not return a response for a Query message with the source IP address being set to "0.0.0.0", it is recommended that an address other than "0.0.0.0" be used.

 If multicast router exists, XG700 does not send Query message even if IGMP Querier is valid.

5.6.4 bridge forward-mode

Function

For the switching method of frame forwarding, the XG700 supports two types of Store-and-forward and Cut-through.

 Store-and-forward

After a full frame is received, an error check is performed before forwarding.

 Cut-through

After reading the data up to the beginning 64 bytes of a received frame, forwarding is immediately performed. Basically, FSC errors are not checked, which allows low latency forwarding. Use the no form return to the default setup.

Prompt

xg(config)#

Command syntax

bridge forward-mode { cut-through | store-and-forward } no bridge forward-mode

Parameter

 forward-mode { cut-through | store-and-forward }

Specifies the switching method.

− cut-through

Sets to Cut-through forwarding.

− store-and-forward

Sets to Store-and-forward forwarding.

Command type

Configuration command

Default

store-and-forward

Example

Set the switching method to Cut-through.

5.6.5 bridge jumbo-frame

Function

Sets the maximum frame size of the jumbo frame. The maximum frame size that can be forwarded is 15360 byte. Use the no form to return to the default setup.

Prompt

xg(config)#

Command syntax

bridge jumbo-frame [ { 9216 | 12288 | 15360 } ] no bridge jumbo-frame

Parameter

 jumbo-frame [ { 9216 | 12288 | 15360 } ]

Specifies the maximum frame size of the jumbo frame.

− 9216

Sets the permitted jumbo frame size to 9216 byte.

− 12288

Sets the permitted jumbo frame size to 12288 byte.

− 15360

Sets the permitted jumbo frame size to 15360 byte.

When this parameter is omitted, 9216 is specified.

Command type

Configuration command

Default

None

Message

% Flowcontrol was changed to only-receive.

Explanation

When 15360 bytes is specified to the maximum frame size of the jumbo frame, Flow Control of every switch port has been changed to "only-receive" (Flow Control is valid only in receiving).

Solution

When the setting of Flow Control is used in "send-receive," set the jumbo frame to other than 15360.

Note

 On forwardable frame size

The forwardable frame size when Jumbo Frame Forwarding is disabled is as follows:

Frame status Forwardable frame size

VLAN-untagged 1518 bytes VLAN-tagged 1522 bytes User VLAN + VLAN-tagged 1526 bytes

When Jumbo Frame Forwarding is permitted, the forwardable frame size will include the sizes of VLAN tag and user VLAN tag.

 When the settings of Jumbo Frame Forwarding is changed, link down will occur at every port. Therefore, if the

spanning tree is active, STP State will be in the state of Discard. And as Rx signals are optimized, it takes about 15 seconds to become link up again.

 When the settings of Jumbo Frame Forwarding is changed, statistical values will be cleared. Therefore, if this

command is executed while the monitor command is being executed, the statistics of the monitor command will temporarily show unusual values. In that case, either wait for the next automatic update time of the statistics, or execute the monitor command again.

 When the jumbo frame size is set to 15360 bytes, Flow Control setting of every port will be "only-receive" (only

receiving is enabled).

 Violation due to port security, loop back alert, and storm control will be cleared.

Example

Set Jumbo Frame to permit up to 9216 bytes.

xg(config)# bridge jumbo-frame 9216

5.6.6 bridge learn-mode

Function

Sets the MAC address table learning mode. The XG700 supports two types of SVL (Shared Vlan Learning) and IVL (Independent VLAN Learning).

 SVL(Shared VLAN Learning)

Regardless of VLAN to which a frame belongs, it is learned as a MAC address entry (mapping of MAC address for port) common to every VLAN.

 IVL(Independent VLAN Learning)

It is learned as a MAC address entry (mapping of MAC address for port) different in every VLAN.

Use the no form to return to the default setup.

Prompt

xg(config)#

Command syntax

bridge learn-mode { ivl | svl } no bridge learn-mode

Parameter

 learn-mode { ivl | svl }

Specifies the MAC address table learning mode.

− ivl

Sets to IVL (Independent Vlan Learning).

− svl

Sets to SVL(Shared Vlan Learning).

Command type

Configuration command

Default

svl

Message

% Setting becomes effective by rebooting.

Explanation

The changed setting becomes enabled after the XG700 is restarted.

Solution

In order to enable the setting, after executing "copy running-config startup-config," restart the XG700 using the "reset" command.

Note

 When the learning mode is changed, the setting is not changed immediately, and will be enabled after the system is

restarted. In order to enable the setting, after reflecting the setting to startup-config using the "copy running-config startup-config" command, restart the XG700 using the "reset" command.

 When changing from SVL to IVL, MAC addresses registered statically in SVL will be registered in VLAN ID 1. Also,

when changing from IVL to SVL, MAC addresses registered statically in IVL will be all cleared, except for the ones registered in VLAN ID 1.

Example

This is used to set the MAC address table learning mode to IVL (Independent VLAN Learning). Then, move to the administrator exec mode, reflect the setting in startup-config, and restart the system.

xg(config)# bridge learn-mode ivl xg(config)# exit xg# copy running-config startup-config xg# reset

5.6.7 bridge mac-address-table

Function

By registering static MAC addresses to the MAC address table, frames with specific destination MAC addresses can be forwarded to a specified port. When a unicast static MAC address is registered, dynamic MAC addresses will not be learned, even when frames sent from the same MAC address are received from a different port. Also, by registering multicast static MAC addresses, frames to be sent to specific multicast can be assigned so that they will be forwarded only to the port this switch specifies. In this case, set the multicast forwarding mode to "forward-unregistered-mac" or "filter-unregistered-mac" using the "multicast-forwarding" command. Use the no form to delete registered static MAC addresses.

Prompt

xg(config)#

Command syntax

bridge mac-address-table static MAC [ vlan <1-4094> ] [ port <1-12> [ <1-12>    ] ] [ agg-port <1-6> [ <1-6>    ] ] no bridge mac-address-table static MAC [ vlan <1-4094> ]

Parameter

 static MAC

Specifies static MAC addresses. When a frame with this destination address is received, it will be forwarded to the port of the specified switch. The MAC address format is "HHHH.HHHH.HHHH," which is a 12-digit hexadecimal number with a period (.) inserted between every four digits.

 A unicast MAC address can register the information on only one port in the MAC address table. (As

for IVL, a port per VLAN) Therefore, if the same unicast MAC address is already set to a different port, it will be replaced with the setting of a newly executed command.

 A multicast MAC address can register the information on multiple ports in the MAC address table. If

the same multicast MAC address is already set to a different port, the setting of a newly executed command will be added to it.

 As for a broadcast address (FFFF.FFFF.FFFF), although it can register the information on multiple

ports, it will be replaced with the setting of the last executed command.

 The following reserved multicast addresses, prescribed under the IEEE802.1D, cannot be registered.

− In the range of 0180.C200.0000 - 0180.C200.0010

− In the range of 0180.C200.0020 - 0180.C200.002F

 vlan <1-4094>

Specifies VLAN to register the MAC address. Specifies VLAN in the range of 1 to 4094. This parameter is valid only when the learning mode of the MAC address table is IVL (Independent Vlan Learning). For SVL (Shared Vlan Learning), this parameter is not necessary.

 port <1-12> [ <1-12>   ]

Specifies the port number to which a frame is forwarded. This parameter is specified in the range of 1 to the maximum port number (=12). Additionally, only when MAC addresses to register are static multicast addresses (including broadcast addresses), multiple addresses can be specified by separating the port numbers with " " (space).

 agg-port <1-6> [ <1-6>  ]

Specifies the aggregation group number to which a frame is forwarded. This parameter is specified in the range of 1 to

6. Additionally, only when MAC addresses to register are static multicast addresses (including broadcast addresses), multiple addresses can be specified by separating the aggregation group numbers with " " (space).

Command type

Configuration command

Default

Only broadcast address (FFFF.FFFF.FFFF) is registered.

Message
