1 Overview

Introduction

MSR 30 Series Routers were self-developed by our company. for use on enterprise-level networks. Depending on the network size, MSR 30 Series Routers can be either core routers on small and medium enterprise networks, or access routers for network branches on some large-sized enterprise networks. Therefore, MSR 30 Series Routers are suitable for the application on the carrier-level networks, such as telecom management networks and billing networks. MSR 30 Series Routers adopt modular design and support a wide range of optional smart interface cards (SICs) and multi-function interface modules (MIMs). The MSR 30-16 can adopt AC and PoE, and the MSR 30-20, 30-40 and 30-60 can adopt AC, DC, and PoE.
Except the MSR 30-11 and the AC-powered MSR 30-16, the MSR 30 series routers each provide a redundancy power system (RPS) interface to enhance the routers’ reliability. The PoE-powered routers can remotely supply power to its powered devices (PDs).
MSR 30 series include these models:
z MSR 30-11 z MSR 30-16 z MSR 30-20 z MSR 30-40 z MSR 30-60

Generic Modules

The MSR 30 Series Routers support generic modules SIC and MIM. For details about the interface cards, refer to MSR Series Routers Interface Card and Interface Module Manual.
SIC/DSIC Cards
MSR 30 series routers adopt modular design and sup port a wide range of option al SIC/DSIC cards that provide various interfaces, such as synchronous/asynchronous serial interface, Ethernet interface, E1/T1, ISDN BRI/PRI, ADSL, audio interface, and Layer 2 switching interface.
SIC cards mainly differ from DSIC cards in that a SIC card occupies one o rdinary SIC slot while a DSIC card occupies two (horizontal) SIC slots. You need to remove the slide rails from the router before installing a DSIC card.
A PoE-capable interface card can supply power remotely only when it is installed in a PoE router. If it is installed in a non-PoE router, it serves as an ordinary switching module only.
For the MSR 30-16, SIC/DSIC cards are subject to the following limitations:
1-12
z SIC-4FSW/1FEA/1GEC/1ADSL/1ADSL-I can be installed only in slot 2 or slot 4. z SIC-2BS/2BU/2BSV can be installed only in slot 1 or slot 3.
For the MSR 30-20/40/60, SIC/DSIC cards are subject to the following limitations:
z SIC-4FSW/1FEA/1GEC/1ADSL/1ADSL-I can be installed only in slot 2 or slot 4.
MIM/DMIM Cards
MSR 30 series routers adopt modular design and support a wide range of optional MIM/DMIM cards that provide various interfaces, such as synchronous/asynchronous serial interf ace, Ethernet interface, E1/T1 interface, ISDN BRI/PRI interface, ADSL interface, audio interface, and Layer 2 switching interface.
MIM cards, DMIM cards, mainly differ in the following aspects: A MIM card occupie s one ordinary MIM slot, a DMIM card occupies two ordinary (horizont al) MIM slots,
You need to remove the slide rails from the router before installing a DMIM card.
ESM
z High-performance network data encryption ESM module (ESM-ANDE) z Standard network data encryption ESM module (ESM-SNDE)
ESM module supports IPSec and by using hardware encryption expedites IP packet encryption. The use of hardware encryption/decryption and hashing operation allows the router to encrypt p a ckets with high performance and reliability.
The encryption card is optional. On a router installed with an encryption card, the main control board functions to route IP packets and implement encryption-enabled VPN, while the encryption card functions to encrypt packets.

2 Installation Preparations

Requirements on Environment

MSR 30 Series must be used indoors. To ensure the normal operation and prolong their service life, the following requirements for inst allation site must be met.
Requirements on Temperature/Humidity
To ensure the normal operation and prolong their service life, certain requirement s on temp erature and humidity in the equipment room shall be met. If the relative humidity is too high, the insulation m aterials in it will deteriorate easily or even lead to electric leakage. Sometimes this will result in change to the mechanical performance of the materials and rusting of the metal compon ents. If the relative humidity is too low, the fastening screw will become loosen due to shrinkage of the isolation spacer. In an environment with dry climate, static electricity may be produced, putting the CMOS of the route r to risk. High temperature is of the greatest risk: for it will significantly degrade the router’s reliability, speed up aging process of the insulating materials, and shorten the service life of the router.
The requirements on the temperature and humidity for MSR 30 Series are shown in the following table:
Table 2-1 Temperature/humidity requirements in the equipment room
Temperature Relative humidity
0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)
Requirements on Cleanness
Dust is harmful to the safe operation of the Router. Dust on the chassis may result in static absorption, thus causing poor contact of the metal connection compon ents or points. Espe cially under the condition of low indoor humidity, dust is easier to be absorbed.
The requirements on the dust concentration and diameter of MSR 30 Series Routers are shown in the following table:
Table 2-2 Limitation on dust content in equipment room
Diameter (μm) 0.5 1 3 5
Concentration (particle/m³)

Requirements on Electrostatic Discharge Prevention
Although many antistatic considerations have been given to MSR 30 Series Routers, damage to the router’s circuit or even the whole equipment may still happen when the static electric ity exceeds the tolerance threshold.
In the communication network to which the routers are connected, static induction mainly comes from two aspects: external electric fields such as outdoor high voltage power line or thunder and internal environment like flooring materials or the whole equipment structure. Thus, the following should be considered to safeguard the equipment against the ESD:
z Make sure that the equipment and the floor are well grounded. z The equipment room is dust-proof. z Maintain an appropriate humidity and temperature. z Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap and uniform when contacting the circuit board. z Place the uninstalled circuit board on the antistatic workbench, with its face upward, or put it into
the static shielding bag.
z When observing or removing the uninstalled circuit board, please touch the edge of the circuit
board, and avoid contacting the devices on it.
Requirements on Electromagnetic Environments
The interference sources, no matter where they come from, af fect the routers with cap acitance couplin g, inductance coupling, radiation of electromagnetic wave, common impedance (including the grounding system) or conducting line (power line, signal line and transmission line etc.). So the following should be considered:
z Take effective measures to prevent the power system from being interfered with by the power grid
system.
z Use an earthing system or lightning protection grounding different from that for the power supply
equipment and keep them as far as possible.
z Keep the router far away from the radio launcher, radar launcher, and high-frequency devices
working in high current.
z Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary.
Requirements on Preventing Lightning
Although many measures have been taken to protect MSR 30 Series from lightning, if the lightning intensity exceeds a certain range, damage to the router may still happen. To protect the router from lightning better, the following should be considered:
z Ensure the PGND wire of the chassis is well grounded.
2-2
z Ensure the ground point of the socket of AC power supply is well grounded. z To enhance the lightning protection capability of the power supply, a lightning arrester could be
installed at the input end of the power supply.
z As for the signal line outdoors to which the interface modules of MSR 30 series routers are
connected, such as ISDN line, telephone line, E1/T1 line, etc, a special lightning arrester should be installed at the input end of the signal line to enhance the lightning protection capability.
Requirements on Workbench
When installing MSR 30 Series Routers, observe the following:
z There is spacing reserved at the air inlet and outlet in the router so as to facilitate the radiation of
the router cabinet.
z Make sure that the rack has a good ventilation system. z Make sure that the rack is sturdy enough to support the weight of the device and the installation
accessories.
z Make sure that the rack is well-grounded.

Safety Precautions

When reading this manual, pay attention to the following:
It indicates that this operation is incorrect and may seriously damage the router or
endanger the operator . Please follow the correct operation procedures for sake of safety.
It indicates that during the installation and usage of the router, the operation needs

Installing Cabinets

For cabinet installation methods, refer to the part discussing cabinet installation. Skip this section if you want to mount your router on the tabletop or the rack of another vendor.

Installing the Router

Install the router after you have completed the installation preparations. The installation of the router will be respectively described below according to the positions that it will be
placed:
z Installing the router on a workbench z Installing the router on a chassis
Installing the Router on a Workbench
In many circumstances, you may not own a 19-inch st andard rack. Usually, the router will be installed on a clean workbench. The operations are very simple, but still, you should be aware of the following items:
z Ensure the stability and well-grounding of the workbench. z Leave a space of 10 cm (3.9 in.) around the router for heat dissipation. z Do not place heavy objects on the router.
Installing the Router in a Rack
Dimensions
The MSR 30 Series Routers are designed to fit standard 19-inch racks. The following table describes their dimensions.

Connecting the PGND

The normal connection of the protection ground (PGND) on the router chassis is an essential safegua rd against the lightning shocks and interference. You must correctly connect the PGND when installing o r using the router.
As shown in the following figure, the router provides a protection ground (PGND) screw at the top right-rear of the chassis. You must securely connect it to the earth ground to safely channel faradic current and leakage electricity to the ground and have the device less susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI).This PGND wire can also protect the router against the lightning caused by the connection with the external network lines, such as E1/T1 line, ISDN/PSTN line.
The grounding screw of MSR 30 Series Router, which is marked with grounding label, is located near the AC power socket and its switch on the rear panel of the chassis, as shown in the following figure:
Figure 3-4 Grounding terminal of the router
Use a PGND wire to connect the screw to the earth ground, and the grounding resistance shou ld not be greater than 5-ohm. Likewise, if the router is installed in a 19-inch st andard rack, this ra ck is required to be grounded too.
When the router is in normal operation, it is required to be well gro unded. Otherwise, the rout er cann ot reliably avoid lightning, which may damage the router itself and even the peer device.

Connecting the Power Cord

Base on power supply mode, the MSR 30 Series Routers have three models: DC, AC and PoE. You can choose suitable ones as needed.

AC power socket (recommended)
You are recommended to use a three-terminal single-phase power socket with ground contact, which must be grounded reliably. Normally, the ground contact of the power supply system in a building was buried during construction and cabling. Still, before connecting the AC-input power cord, you must make sure that the power supply of the building is well grounded.
Connecting the AC-input power cord
Step 1: Make sure that the PGND is securely conn ected to the earth ground. Step 2: Insert one end of the power cord accomp anying the router into the power so cket on the chassis
rear panel, and fix the cable onto the cable-retention clip with a cable strap. Connect the other end of the cable to an AC po wer source at your installation site.
Step 3: Place the power switch of the router to the ON position. Step 4: Check that the PWR LED on the front panel of the router is on for correct connection.

Ethernet cable
1) Connecting electrical Ethernet interface cable. Ethernet interfaces usually use category 5 twisted pair cables, as shown in the following figure:
3-9
Figure 3-13 Ethernet cable
Ethernet cables fit into the following two categories:
z Standard cable, also called straight-through cable, at both ends of which, wires are crimped in the
RJ-45 connectors in the same sequence. The cable conne cts different cate gories of devices, such as a terminal device (PC for example) or router to a Hub or LAN switch. The cable accompanying the router is straight-through cable.
z Crossover cable, at both ends of which, wires are crimped in the RJ-45 connectors in different
sequences. The cable connects the same category of devices, such as PC to PC or PC to router. You can make crossover cables yourself as needed.
In making network cables, shielded cables are preferred for electromagnetic compatibility sake.
2) Connecting electrical Ethernet interface cable. For the 10/100/1000 Mbps fiber-optic Ethernet interfaces, select single mode or multi-mode optical
fibers depending on the type of the installed 1000Base-X SFP modules. As the interfaces that these SFP modules provide use LC-type fiber-optic connectors, you must use fibers with LC-type conne ctors for them. All these SFP modules are hot swappable.
SFP modules are optional. They are provided only when ordered.
Connecting the Ethernet cable
For 10/100/1000 Mbps fiber and electrical interface, the system consid ers the electrical interf ace as the operating interface by default. Users can use the combo enable command to switch between them in interface view.
1) Connecting electrical Ethernet interface cable. Follow the steps below to connect an Ethernet cable: Step 1: Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to an Ethernet port on the router and the other end to
another device.
3-10
z For a 10/100 Mbps port provided by the RPU, connect it to a PC or another router using a
crossover cable or to a Hub or LAN switch using a straight-through cable.
z For a 10/100/1000 Mbps port provided by the RPU, connect it to a PC or another router using a
crossover cable or to a Hub or LAN switch using a straight-through cable.
Step 2: V iew the LINK LED of the Ethernet interface: ON means a link is present and OFF means no link is present. Check the line for the cause.
2) Connecting fiber-optic Ethernet interface cable.
In connecting optical fibers, observe the following:
z Do not over-bend the fiber. Its curvature radius must be greater than 10 cm (3.9 in.). z Ensure that the Tx and Rx ends are correctly connected. z Ensure that the fiber ends are clean.
Laser danger: Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the fiber-optic ports which are connected with lasers. To protect your eyes against radiation harm, never stare into an open fiber-optic port.
Follow these steps to connect a 10/100/1000 Mbps fiber-opti c interface: Step 1: Use two fibers to conne ct the Rx and Tx ends of the interface to another device: Rx to Tx, and Tx
to Rx. Step 2: View the LINK LED of the 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet interface: ON means a link is present.
OFF means no Rx link is present; check the line for the cause.
Connecting AUX to a Modem
AUX port
AUX is an RS232 asynchronous serial interface, which can back up a WAN interface and provide dial connection. In case of console failure, AUX can function as a console interface.
AUX cable
AUX cable is an eight-wire shielded cable. At one end of the cable is an RJ-45 connector for connecting the console port on the router . At the other end are DB-9 (male) con nector and DB-25 (male) connector. You can plug either of them into the serial port on a modem as needed.
3-11
Figure 3-14 AUX cable
Connecting the AUX cable
Follow these steps to connect the AUX cable. Step 1: Plug the RJ-45 connector of the cable into the AUX port on the main bo ard. Step 2: Plug the DB-25 or DB-9 connector into the serial port on the analog modem. When using the AUX interface for remote configuration or dial backup, you need to connect the local
modem to the remote modem through PSTN and then to the remote device. For the configuration procedures, refer to MSR Series Routers User Manual.

Interface Card Module

The MSR 30 Series Routers support various types of interface card modules. For detailed information, refer to MSR Series Routers Interface Card and Interface Module Manual.

z The design of demountable slide rail greatly facilitates users to extend their servi ces. The slid e rail
is fixed on chassis through special structure. When you need to install a DMIM, you only need to uninstall the rail and install the module. The rail may deviate out of external force when you install a DMIM, thus the DMIM on the other side cannot be installed normally. You can right the rail manually and then install the DMIM normally.
z When installing a DMIM, it is recommended that you fasten the release screw first and then in stall
the DMIM on the other side of the rail.

Verifying Installation

During router installation, you must verify installation each time you power on the router, making sure that:
z Whether there is enough space around the router for heat-dissipation, and whether the workbench
is stable enough.
z Whether the power supply that the power cord connects to is compliant with that required by the
router.
z Whether the PGND wire of the router is correctly connected. z Whether the router is correctly connected to other devices, such as the console terminal.
The check after installation is very important. The stability, grounding of the router and powe r supply will directly affect the operation of the router.

Powering on the Router
Checking before power-on
Check according to the following items before powering on the router.
z Whether the power cord and PGND wire are correctly connected. z Whether the voltage of the power supply complies with the requirement of the router. z Whether the console cable is correctly connected, whether the PC or terminal for configuration is
open, and whether the settings are done.
z Whether the CF card is loosed.
Before powering on the router, the user should be aware where the switch of the power supply to the router is located, so that the power supply can be disconnected in time once accidents oc cur.
Powering on the router
z Turn on the site power. z Turn on the power switch on the router.
Checking/operating after power-on
After powering on the router, check that:
4-3
1) The LEDs on the front panel show that the router is operating normally.
2) The console terminal displays normally.
For local configuration, after you power on the router, you can see the startup banner. See section 257260720 “Startup Process”.
3) After completing the power-on self-test (POST), the system asks you to press <Enter>. When the prompt appears, you may proceed to configure the router.
Startup Process
During the power-on or reboot process, the router first initializes its memory:
InitDDR
Then the router runs BootROM, and the console terminal displays the following information:

Configuration Fundamentals

In general, the configuration steps are as follows: Step 1: Before configuring the router, the networking requirements should be made specific, which
include networking purpose, the role of the router in the network, the division of subnets, WAN type and transmission medium, the network security policy and reliability.
Step 2: Based on the above requirements, draw a clear and integrated networking diagram. Step 3: Configure the WAN interface of the router. First, configure the physical operating parameters
(e.g., the operating mode of the serial interface, baud rate and synchronous clock) of the interface according to the transmission medium of the WAN. For the dial-up interface, the user also needs to configure DCC parameters. Then, configure the link layer protocol encapsulated on the interface and the related operating parameters according to the WAN type.
Step 4: Configure the IP addresses or IPX network n umbers of all the interfaces on the router according to the division of the subnets.
Step 5: Configure the routes. If it is necessary to enable a dynamic routing protocol, the user should configure the related operating parameters of the protocol.
Step 6: If special security is required, perform the security config ur ation for the router. Step 7: If special reliability is required, perform the reliability configuration for the router. Please see MSR Series Routers User Manual for the configuration detail s of the protocols o r functions
of the router.
Basic Configuration Procedures Command Line Interface
Characteristics of the command line interface
The command line interface of MSR 30 Series Routers provide s a number of configuration commands, which can be used to configure and manage the router. The command line interface has the following characteristics:
z Local configuration through Console port z Performs the local or remote configuration through the telnet command, which can be used to
directly log on and manage other routers.
z Users can enter ? anytime to get online help. z Provides network diagnostic tools, such as Tracert and Ping, to quickly diagnose the availability of
the network.
z Provides all kinds of detailed debugging information to diagnose network faults. z The command line interpreter adopts fuzzy search for the keywords of the command. If the user
enters the conflict-free keyword for a command, the command will be interpreted accordingly. For example, for a display command, the user can just enter dis.
Command line interface
The command line interface of MSR 30 Series routers provides plenty of configuration commands. Hierarchical user protection is adopted to prevent unauthorized users from illegal invading. Each group corresponds to a view. The user can use these commands to switch between different configuration views. In general, only certain commands can be executed under a particular view. But some common commands (such as ping and display current-configuration) can be executed in any view.

Arranging Slots and Numbering Interfaces
Slot arrangement
The MSR 30 series provide many types of interfaces, such as console, AUX, Ethernet, serial (synchronous/asynchronous), and asynchronous port. The following figures describe how these interfaces are numbered.

Interface numbering
The MSR 30 Series Router interface adopts “two dimension” numbering rules, sh own in the following:
z The interfaces are represented by interface-type X/Y, where interface-type can be serial,
asynchronous, ethernet or ATM, and so on; X specifies the slot number; Y specifies the interface number.
z Different interfaces on an interface module share the same slot number X. z For every interface, Y starts from 0 and indicates the interface sequence on the interface module,
from left to right.
If you install a MIM-1FE and an MIM-2FE respectively in slot 5 and slot 6 on the MSR 30-20, the Ethernet interfaces are numbered as follows:
z Fixed Gigabit Ethernet interfaces are Gigabit Ethernet 0/0 and Gigabit Ethernet 0/1; z The Ethernet interface on the FIC-1FE is Ethernet 5/0; z The Ethernet interfaces on FIC-2FE are Ethernet 6/0 and Ethernet 6/1.

5 Software Maintenance

The storage medium can be a compact Flash (CF) card or a Flash card. In this chapter, only CF cards are involved.

Introduction

Files
BootROM program file
The file is used for booting application at boot. A complete BootROM file includes two segments: basic and extended.
Application program file
The router is available with Dual Image function. By default, the system defines and attempts to boot in order with three boot files: main, backup, and secure, provided they are available with CF card. If the router fails to boot with the secure boot file, it prompts the boot failure. For more information about the boot files, refer to section “
The following table gives default names and types of boot files.
Table 5-1 Default names and types of the boot files
Boot file File name File type
Main boot file main.bin M Backup boot file backup.bin B Secure boot file secure.bin S
Maintaining Application Program and Configuration File”.
5-1
z The application programs for system boot can be type M, B and S, but not type N. z You can modify the file name of an application file in CF card using the command after it boots. You
cannot modify the file type of a type S application image file, but you can modify the file type of type M/B and N application program files in the BootROM menu or using commands after the application program boots.
z Secure boot file is the last resort for system boot. You can download it in the BootROM menu and
must name it secure.bin. However, you cannot modify this file or change the type of another file to S. If you change the name of the secure boot file with the rename command after the system boots, the file is removed from CF card. To use the secure boot file after that, you need to download it again.
z You can store all these types of application programs in a CF card, but only one for each due to the
limited space. For example, if an M+B file exists, it is impossible to have a type M or type B file. If you change the file type of another file to B, the M+B file becomes a type M file.
Configuration file
The file stores configuration information of the router. By default, the system defines and attempts to boot in order with three configuration files: main, backup,
and default, provided they are available with CF card. If the router fails to boot with the secure boot file, it prompts the boot failure. For more information about the boot files, refer to section “
Maintaining
Application Program and Configuration File”. The following table describes the three configuration files.
Table 5-2 Description on the three configuration files
Configuration file File type Description
Main configuration file M Used by the system for booting by default.
Backup configuration file B
Used by the system for booting when it fails to boot with the main configuration file.
Used by the system for booting when it fails to boot with the backup configuration file. If the system fails to boot with the default configuration file, it boots
Default configuration file M/B/N
with null configuration. The name of the default configuration file has something to do with the router brand. The main and backup configuration operations on the default configuration file is the same with common configuration files.
5-2
z The configuration files for system boot can be type M, B and default configuration file of type N, but
not non-default configuration file of type N (that is, neither M nor B).
z You can modify the file name of a configuration file in CF card using the command after it boots.
You cannot modify the type of the default configuration file, but you can modify the file type of type M/B and N configuration files in the BootROM menu or using commands after the application program boots.
You can store them in Flash memory, but only one for each. For example, if an M+B file exists, it is impossible to have another M or B file. If you change the file type of another file to B, the M+B file becomes a type M file.
z The file name cannot be longer than 64 characters (including drive letter and a string terminator. If
the drive letter is “CF: /”, the file name can be at most [ 64-1-4 ] = 59 characters in length; or, errors will occur in file operation. Typically, the file name is recommended to be not more than 16 characters.
z The extension ASCII characters (ASCII>=128) and invisible characters (ASCII<33) cannot be
included in the file name.
z The following characters cannot be included in the file name: ”, ‘, ?, \, space, *, |, <, /, :, >, ~. z The character “.” can be included in the file name, but cannot be the first or last character of the file
name. Two consecutive “.”s are not allowed.
Software Maintenance Methods
1) Upgrade BootROM and application program using XModem protocol through serial port.
2) Upgrade application program from TFTP/FTP server through Ethernet interface in BootROM.
3) Upload/download application program and configuration file from TFTP/FTP server via command lines.
z BootROM program is upgraded through binding with the Comware version. You do not need to
upgrade it separately. The system automatically upgrades BootROM to be the latest version while upgrading Comware.
z Check the current version of BootROM and application program before upgrading. For the
association between Comware version and BootROM program, see the corresponding Release Notes.

Upgrading Application Program Through Ethernet Interface
TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) is a protocol of the TCP/IP suit that is used to transfer trivial files between clients and the server. It provides not-so-complex and low-cost file transfer services. Carried over UDP, TFTP provides unreliable data transfer services and does not provide access authorization and authentication mechanism. It employs timeout retransmission to guarantee the successful transferring of data. TFTP takes much smaller size than FTP.
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is an application layer protocol in the TCP/IP suit. It mainly transfers files among remote hosts. Carried over TCP, it provides reliable and connection-oriented data transfer service but does not provide access authorization and authentication mechanism.
Step 1: Set up an upgrade environment. Figure 5-7 Set up TFTP/FTP upgrade environment
Connect Ethernet port 0/0 to a PC by using a crossover cable. Start TFTP/FTP program on the PC as the server, and set the path of TFTP/FTP server to point to the address of application program. You need to set user name and password if FTP server is used.
5-14
No TFTP/FTP Server is available with the MSR 30 series. You must install one yourself.
Step 2: Modify Ethernet pa rameters. Refer to section “

Maintaining Application Program and Configurations Through Command Lines

After booting the router normally, you can upgrade and backup application program and backup and recover configurations in command line mode.
Maintaining the Router with TFTP Server
The TFTP service provided by the router is TFTP Client — the router serves as TFTP Client, and the file server serves as TFTP Server . You can input commands to upload the configuration file and applicatio n program of the router to the file server, or downl oad configuration file or application program to the router from the file server.
5-16
Configuring environment
Step 1: Set up hardware environment (refer to section “Upgrading Application Program Through Ethernet Interface” for details), and point the server path to the folder where the file is put.
Figure 5-8 Networking diagram for maintenance under command line mode
Configure the IP addresses of the two sides to be in the same network. In this section, the TFTP server is set to 192.168.0.1, and the Ethernet interface connected to it (Ethernet interface 0/0 in this example; so, any interface is OK) is set to 192.168.0.2. Both can use the ping command to check if the connection is successful.
Backing up and recovering application program and configure file
After finishing environment building, perform the following operations: View the files included in current file system with the dir command:
<DEVICE>dir Directory of cf:/
0 -rw- 14323376 Apr 03 2006 15:36:48 main.bin 1 drw- - Mar 20 2006 09:55:28 logfile 2 -rw- 909 Apr 04 2006 10:54:38 ar-router.cfg 3 -rw- 1045 Apr 04 2006 11:31:36 configbak.cfg 4 -rw- 14323376 Mar 31 2006 17:50:22 backup.bin
63340 KB total (20928 KB free)
File system type of cf: FAT32
<DEVICE>
Use the command as follows to backup the config.cfg file on the router to TFTP server and save as config.bak:
<DEVICE>tftp 192.168.0.1 put config.cfg config.bak File will be transferred in binary mode
5-17
Sending file to remote tftp server. Please wait... \ TFTP: 1045 bytes sent in 0 second(s). File uploaded successfully.
Use this command to download the config.cfg file on the server to the router:
<DEVICE>tftp 192.168.0.1 get config.cfg config.cfg The file config.cfg exists. Overwrite it?[Y/N]:y Verifying server file... Deleting the old file, please wait... File will be transferred in binary mode Downloading file from remote tftp server, please wait...\ TFTP: 1045 bytes received in 0 second(s) File downloaded successfully.
If a config.cfg file already exists in the router, select <Y/y> to overwrite it.
z If a config.cfg file already exists on the server, it will be overwritten. z The above operations are performed under user view. z The backup configuration file can be modified by text editor. The configuration file modified during
download process can modify the configuration, and the modification takes effect after rebooting. Similarly, you can also download application program to the router to overwrite the old main program to upgrade the application program.
Maintaining the Router with FTP Server
Maintaining the router when it serves as the server
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is an application layer protocol in the TCP/IP suit. It mainly transfers files among remote hosts. Born over TCP, it provides reliable and connection-oriented data transfer service but does not provide access authorization and authentication mechanism.
The FTP service provided by the router is FTP Server , that is to say, the router serves as the FTP Server . You can run FTP Client to log onto the router and access files on the router.
Install FTP Client before using FTP. No FTP Server is available with the MSR 30 series. You must inst all one yourself. Take the FTP Client with Windows XP for example.
Step 1: Build hardware maintenan ce environment as follows:
5-18
Figure 5-9 Router maintenance when it serves as the server
Ethernet cable
Router
TFTP/FTP Server
Console cable
PC
TFTP/FTP Client
Configure the IP addresses of the two sides to be in the same network. In this section, the PC server is set to 192.168.0.1, and the router Ethernet interface connected to it (Ethernet interface 0/0 in this example; so, any interface is OK) is set to 192.168.0.2. Both can use the ping command to check if the connection is successful.
Step 2: Boot FTP service. You can boot FTP service after configuring FTP server authentication and authorization. FTP server
supports multi-user access. The remote FTP user sends request to the FTP server, which then executes accordingly and returns the result of the execution to user . Use the following command to boot the FTP service:
[DEVICE]ftp server enable % Start FTP server
Add FTP authorized user name and password:
[DEVICE]local-user guest [DEVICE-luser- guest]service-type ftp [DEVICE-luser- guest]password simple 123456
Step 3: Maintain the router. After booting FTP service of the router and configuring user name and password, you can boot FTP
Client on your PC. Take the FTP Client with Windows XP for example: Enter <ftp> in the DOS window, and the system prompts:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ftp ftp> ftp> open 192.168.0.2 Connected to 192.168.0.2. 220 FTP service ready. User (192.168.0.2:(none)): guest 331 Password required for guest Password: 230 User logged in.
5-19
After you correctly enter the username and password, the system prompts login success, and you can complete maintenance of the router, for example, modifying transmission mode and local path, and backing up files. In this example, the main.bin file on the router is backed up to the PC.
ftp> binary 200 Type set to I. ftp> lcd c:\temp Local directory now C:\temp. ftp> get main.bin main.bin 200 Port command okay. 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for main.bin. 226 Transfer complete. ftp: 14323376 bytes received in 16.81Seconds 851.87Kbytes/sec.
Recover the backup file to the router command:
ftp> put main.bin main.bin 200 Port command okay. 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for main.bin. 226 Transfer complete. ftp: 14323376 bytes sent in 8.29Seconds 1727.37Kbytes/sec. ftp> quit 221 Server closing.
Maintaining the router when it serves as the client
You can also maintain the router file system by building FTP server and making the router serve as the client.
Step 1: Build maintenance environment as follows: Figure 5-10 Router maintenance when it serves as the client
When the router serves as the client, you can run FTP server program on your PC as the FTP server, and set the server path. Then, add user name and p assword for the router.
Configure the IP addresses of the two sides to be in the same network. In this section, the FTP server is set to 192.168.0.1, and the Ethernet interface connected to it (Ethernet interface 0/0 in this example; so,
5-20
any interface is OK) is set to 192.168.0.2. Both can use the ping command to check if the connection is successful.
Step 2: Maintain the router through the terminal connected to the console port as follow:
<DEVICE>ftp 192.168.0.1 Trying 192.168.0.1 ... Press CTRL+K to abort Connected to 192.168.0.1. 220 3Com 3CDaemon FTP Server Version 2.0 User(192.168.0.1:(none)): guest 331 User name ok, need password Password: 230 User logged in
[ftp]
Use the command as follows to maintain the router. Here, get and put commands are used to backup and recover files.
[ftp]get main.bin main.bin cf:/main.bin has been existing. Overwrite it?[Y/N]:y 200 PORT command successful. 150 File status OK ; about to open data connection 226 Closing data connection; File transfer successful. FTP: 14323376 byte(s) received in 69.256 second(s) 206.00K byte(s)/sec. [ftp]put main.bin main.bin 200 PORT command successful. 150 File status OK ; about to open data connection 226 Closing data connection; File transfer successful. FTP: 14323376 byte(s) sent in 15.974 second(s) 896.00Kbyte(s)/sec. [ftp]quit 221 Service closing control connection

Dealing with Router Password Loss

Do as follows when your BootROM password, user password or Super Passwo rd is lost.
User Password Loss
You cannot enter the system if you lose your user password. You can boot the system by neglecting system configuration. Perform the following operations:
Step 1: Enter the main BootROM menu, and sele ct <6 > to boot by ignoring system configuration: The system prompts:
........
Flag Set Successfully.
The system prompts set success. Step 2: When the main BootROM menu appears again, enter <a> to reboot the system.
........
system start booting......Version 2.11
Step 3: Set new password under the system view after rebooting.
[DEVICE]user-interface console 0 [DEVICE-ui-console0]authentication-mode password [DEVICE-ui-console0]set authentication password simple 123456
This indicates that the password authentication is adopted at the Console port and the password is set to 123456 and stored in plain text.
z After rebooting, the system runs with the initial default configuration. The original configuration files
are stored in memory. To restore the original configurations, you can use the display saved-configuration command to display them, and then copy and execute them.
z When storing the password in plain text, you can use the display current-configuration
command to see the password in the current configuration. If you use the set authentication password cipher 123456 command when setting the password, the password is encrypted and stored.
Step 4: Save the new configuration.
[DEVICE] save
Execute the save command after modifying the user password to save the new password.

7 Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting the Power System

Symptom:
The PWR LED RUN is OFF or blinking. Solution: Check that:
z The power switch on the router is turned on. z The switch of the power source is turned on. z The power cord is correctly connected. z The power source meets the requirement of the router. If the PSU is DC-input, check the AC/DC
OK LED: steady ON means the input voltage is normal. OFF means the input voltage is abnormal.

Troubleshooting the Configuration System

If the router passes POST after powered up, the console screen displays the startup banner; if faults occur to the configuration system, the console screen displays nothing or only illegible characters.
Troubleshooting the console terminal
Symptom:
After the router is powered on, the console screen displays nothing.
Solution:
Step 1: Check that:
z The power system is normal. z The console cable is correctly connected.
Step 2: Check the console cable and the terminal (HyperTerminal for example) settings.
Troubleshooting the console terminal
Symptom:
After the router is powered on, the console screen displays illegible characters.
Solution:
Verify that the terminal settings are as follows: Baud: 9600 Data bits: 8 Stop bit: 1 Parity: None Flow control: None Terminal emulation: VT100
