Command line interface

Introduction
The HP 10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch is ready to perform basic switching functions right out of the box. Some of the more advanced features, however, require some administrative configuration before they can be used effectively. This guide provides a command reference for the HP 10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch.
The extensive switching software included in the switch provides a variety of options for accessing and configuring the switch:
Built-in, text-based command line interfaces (AOS CLI and ISCLI) for access via a local terminal or
remote Telnet/Secure Shell (SSH) session
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support for access through network management
software such as HP Systems Insight Manager
A browser-based management interface for interactive network access through the Web browser
The command line interface provides a direct method for collecting switch information and performing switch configuration. Using a basic terminal, you can view information and statistics about the switch, and perform any necessary configuration.
This chapter explains how to access the AOS CLI to the switch.
Additional references
Additional information about installing and configuring the switch is available in the following guides, which are available at http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation

HP 10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch Application Guide
HP 10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch Browser-based Interface Reference
HP 10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch Quick Setup Instructions
Connecting to the switch
You can access the command line interface in one of the following ways:
Using a console connection via the console port
Using a Telnet connection over the network
Using a Secure Shell (SSH) connection to securely log in over a network
.
9
Command line interface

Establishing a console connection

To establish a console connection with the switch, you need:
A null modem cable with a female DB-9 connector (See the HP 10Gb Ethernet BL-c Switch User
Guide for more information.)
An ASCII terminal or a computer running terminal emulation software set to the parameters shown in
the table below
Table 1 Console configuration parameters
Parameter Value
Baud Rate 9600
Data Bits 8
Parity None
Stop Bits 1
Flow Control None
To establish a console connection with the switch:
1. Connect the terminal to the console port using the null modem cable.
2. Power on the terminal.
3. Press the Enter key a few times on the terminal to establish the connection.
4. You will be required to enter a password for access to the switch. (For more information, see the
“Setting passwords” section in the “First-time configuration” chapter.)
10
Command line interface

Setting an IP address

To access the switch via a Telnet or an SSH connection, you need to have an Internet Protocol (IP) address set for the switch. The switch can get its IP address in one of the following ways:
Management port access:
Using a Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) server—When the /cfg/sys/dhcp command
is enabled, the management interface (interface 250) requests its IP address from a DHCP server. The default value for the /cfg/sys/dhcp command is enabled.
Configuring manually—If the network does not support DHCP, you must configure the
management interface (interface 250) with an IP address. If you want to access the switch from a remote network, you also must configure the management gateway (gateway 254).
Uplink port access:
Using a Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) server—By default, the management interface is set up to
request its IP address from a BOOTP server. If you have a BOOTP server on the network, add the Media Access Control (MAC) address of the switch to the BOOTP configuration file located on the BOOTP server. The MAC address can be found in the System Information menu. (See the “System information” section in the “Information Menu” chapter.) If you are using a DHCP server that also does BOOTP, you do not have to configure the MAC address.
Configuring manually—If the network does not support BOOTP, you must configure the
management port with an IP address.

Establishing a Telnet connection

A Telnet connection offers the convenience of accessing the switch from any workstation connected to the network. Telnet provides the same options for user, operator, and administrator access as those available through the console port. By default, Telnet is enabled on the switch. The switch supports four concurrent Telnet connections.
Once the IP parameters are configured, you can access the CLI using a Telnet connection. To establish a Telnet connection with the switch, run the Telnet program on the workstation and enter the telnet command, followed by the switch IP address:
telnet <10GbE switch IP address>
You will then be prompted to enter a password. The password entered determines the access level: administrator, operator, or user. See the “Accessing the switch” section later in this chapter for description of default passwords.
11
Command line interface

Establishing an SSH connection

Although a remote network administrator can manage the configuration of a switch via Telnet, this method does not provide a secure connection. The Secure Shell (SSH) protocol enables you to securely log into the switch over the network.
As a secure alternative to using Telnet to manage switch configuration, SSH ensures that all data sent over the network is encrypted and secure. In order to use SSH, you must first configure it on the switch. See the “Secure Shell Server configuration” section in the “Configuration Menu” chapter for information on how to configure SSH.
The switch can perform only one session of key/cipher generation at a time. Therefore, an SSH/Secure Copy (SCP) client will not be able to log in if the switch is performing key generation at that time or if another client has just logged in before this client. Similarly, the system will fail to perform the key generation if an SSH/SCP client is logging in at that time.
The supported SSH encryption and authentication methods are listed below.
Server Host Authentication—Client RSA authenticates the switch in the beginning of every connection
Key Exchange—RSA
Encryption:
AES256-CBC AES192-CBC AES128-CBC 3DES-CBC 3DES ARCFOUR
User Authentication—Local password authentication; Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service
(RADIUS)
The following SSH clients are supported:
SSH 3.0.1 for Linux (freeware)
SecureCRT® 4.1.8 (VanDyke Technologies, Inc.)
OpenSSH_3.9 for Linux (FC 3)
FedoraCore 3 for SCP commands
PuTTY Release 0.58 (Simon Tatham) for Windows
NOTE: The switch implementation of SSH is based on versions 1.5 and 2.0, and supports SSH
clients from version 1.0 through version 2.0. SSH clients of other versions are not supported. You may configure the client software to use protocol SSH version 1 or version 2.
By default, SSH service is not enabled on the switch. Once the IP parameters are configured, you can access the command line interface to enable SSH.
To establish an SSH connection with the switch, run the SSH program on the workstation by issuing the
ssh command, followed by the user account name and the switch IP address:
>> # ssh <user>@<10Gb switch IP address>
You will then be prompted to enter your password.
NOTE: The first time you run SSH from the workstation, a warning message might appear. At the
prompt, enter yes to continue.
12
Command line interface
Accessing the switch
To enable better switch management and user accountability, the switch provides different levels or classes of user access. Levels of access to the CLI and Web management functions and screens increase as needed to perform various switch management tasks. The three levels of access are:
User—User interaction with the switch is completely passive; nothing can be changed on the switch.
Users may display information that has no security or privacy implications, such as switch statistics and current operational state information.
Operator—Operators can only effect temporary changes on the switch. These changes will be lost
when the switch is rebooted/reset. Operators have access to the switch management features used for daily switch operations. Because any changes an operator makes are undone by a reset of the switch, operators cannot severely impact switch operation, but do have access to the Maintenance menu.
Administrator—Only administrators can make permanent changes to the switch configuration,
changes that are persistent across a reboot/reset of the switch. Administrators can access switch functions to configure and troubleshoot problems on the switch. Because administrators can also make temporary (operator-level) changes as well, they must be aware of the interactions between temporary and permanent changes.
Access to switch functions is controlled through the use of unique usernames and passwords. Once you are connected to the switch via the local console, Telnet, or SSH, you are prompted to enter a password. The password entered determines the access level. The default user names/password for each access level is listed in the following table.
NOTE: It is recommended that you change default switch passwords after initial configuration and
as regularly as required under your network security policies. For more information, see the “Setting passwords” section in the “First-time configuration” chapter.
Table 2 User access levels
User account Description and tasks performed
User The user has no direct responsibility for switch management. He or she can view all switch status
information and statistics, but cannot make any configuration changes to the switch. The user account is enabled by default, and the default password is user.
Oper The operator manages all functions of the switch. The operator can reset ports or the entire
switch. By default, the operator account is disabled and has no password.
Admin The super user administrator has complete access to all menus, information, and configuration
commands on the switch, including the ability to change both the user and administrator passwords. The admin account is enabled by default, and the default password is admin.
NOTE: With the exception of the admin user, setting the password to an empty value can disable
access to each user level. Once you enter the administrator password and it is verified, you are given complete access to the switch.

Menu basics

Menu basics

Introduction
The AOS CLI is used for viewing switch information and statistics. In addition, the administrator can use the CLI for performing all levels of switch configuration.
To make the CLI easy to use, the various commands have been logically grouped into a series of menus and submenus. Each menu displays a list of commands and/or submenus that are available, along with a summary of what each command will do. Below each menu is a prompt where you can enter any command appropriate to the current menu.
This chapter describes the Main Menu commands, and provides a list of commands and shortcuts that commonly are available from all the menus within the CLI.
Main Menu
The Main Menu displays after a successful connection and login. The following table shows the Main Menu for the administrator login. Some features are not available under the user login.
[Main Menu] info - Information Menu stats - Statistics Menu cfg - Configuration Menu oper - Operations Command Menu boot - Boot Options Menu maint - Maintenance Menu diff - Show pending config changes [global command] apply - Apply pending config changes [global command] save - Save updated config to FLASH [global command] revert - Revert pending or applied changes [global command] exit - Exit [global command, always available]
Menu summary
The Main Menu displays the following submenus:
Information Menu
The Information Menu provides submenus for displaying information about the current status of the switch: from basic system settings to VLANs, and more.
Statistics Menu
This menu provides submenus for displaying switch performance statistics. Included are port, IP, ICMP, TCP, UDP, SNMP, routing, ARP, and DNS.
Configuration Menu
This menu is available only from an administrator login. It includes submenus for configuring every aspect of the switch. Changes to configuration are not active until explicitly applied. Changes can be saved to non-volatile memory (NVRAM).

Menu basics
Operations Command Menu
Operations-level commands are used for making immediate and temporary changes to switch configuration. This menu is used for bringing ports temporarily in and out of service. This menu is available only from an administrator and operator login.
Boot Options Menu
The Boot Options Menu is available only from an administrator login. This menu is used for upgrading switch software, selecting configuration blocks, and for resetting the switch when necessary. This menu is also used to set the switch back to factory settings.
Maintenance Menu
This menu is used for debugging purposes, enabling you to generate a technical support dump of the critical state information in the switch, and to clear entries in the Forwarding Database and the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and routing tables. This menu is available only from an administrator and operator login.
Global commands
Some basic commands are recognized throughout the menu hierarchy. These commands are useful for obtaining online Help, navigating through menus, and for applying and saving configuration changes.
For help on a specific command, enter help. The following screen displays:
Global Commands: [can be issued from any menu] help up print pwd lines verbose exit quit diff apply save revert ping traceroute telnet history pushd popd who

Menu basics
Command line interface shortcuts
The following shortcuts allow you to enter commands quickly and easily.

Command stacking

As a shortcut, you can type multiple commands on a single line, separated by forward slashes (/). You can connect as many commands as required to access the menu option that you want.
For example, the keyboard shortcut to access the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Configuration Menu from the Main# prompt is:
Main# cfg/sys/ssnmp/name

Command abbreviation

Most commands can be abbreviated by entering the first characters that distinguish the command from the others in the same menu or submenu.
For example, the command shown above could also be entered as:
Main# c/sys/ssn/n

Tab completion

By entering the first letter of a command at any menu prompt and pressing the Tab key, the CLI will display all commands or options in that menu that begin with that letter. Entering additional letters will further refine the list of commands or options displayed.
If only one command fits the input text when the Tab key is pressed, that command will be supplied on the command line, waiting to be entered. If the Tab key is pressed without any input on the command line, the currently active menu displays.

Setting passwords
HP recommends that you change all passwords after initial configuration and as regularly as required under the network security policies. See the “Accessing the switch” section in the “Command line interface” chapter for a description of the user access levels.
To change the user, operator, or administrator password, you must log in using the administrator password. Passwords cannot be modified from the user or operator command mode.
NOTE: If you forget your administrator password, call HP technical support for help using the
password fix-up mode.

Changing the default administrator password

The administrator has complete access to all menus, information, and configuration commands, including the ability to change the user, operator, and administrator passwords.
The default password for the administrator account is admin. To change the default password:
1. Connect to the switch and log in using the admin password.
2. From the Main Menu, use the following command to access the Configuration Menu:

Changing the default operator password

The operator manages all functions of the switch. The operator can reset ports or the entire switch. Operators can only effect temporary changes on the switch. These changes will be lost when the switch is rebooted/reset. Operators have access to the switch management features used for daily switch operations. Because any changes an operator makes are undone by a reset of the switch, operators cannot severely impact switch operation.
By default, the operator account is disabled and has no password. This password cannot be changed from the operator account. Only the administrator has the ability to change passwords, as shown in the following procedure.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using the admin password.

The access control sub system provides authorization services. The vacmAccessTable maps a group name, security information, a context, and a message type, which
could be the read or write type of operation or notification into a MIB view. The View-based Access Control Model defines a set of services that an application can use for checking
access rights of a group. This group’s access rights are determined by a read-view, a write-view, and a notify-view. The read-view represents the set of object instances authorized for the group while reading the objects. The write-view represents the set of object instances authorized for the group when writing objects. The notify-view represents the set of object instances authorized for the group when sending a notification.

Shows information about the root bridge for the Spanning Tree. Information includes the priority (hex) and MAC address of the root.
Path-cost is the total path cost to the root bridge. It is the summation of the path cost between bridges (up to the root bridge).
The current root port refers to the port on the switch that receives data from the current root. Zero (0) indicates the root bridge of the STP.
The bridge priority parameter controls which bridge on the network will become the STP root bridge.
The hello time parameter specifies, in seconds, how often the root bridge transmits a configuration bridge protocol data unit (BPDU). Any bridge that is not the root bridge uses the root bridge hello value.
The maximum age parameter specifies, in seconds, the maximum time the bridge waits without receiving a configuration bridge protocol data unit before it reconfigures the STP network. If the bridge is not the root bridge, it uses the MaxAge value of the root bridge.
The forward delay parameter specifies, in seconds, the amount of time that a bridge port has to wait before it changes from learning state to forwarding state. If the bridge is not the root bridge, it uses the FwdDel value of the root bridge.
Aging
The aging time parameter specifies, in seconds, the amount of time the bridge waits without receiving a packet from a station before removing the station from the Forwarding Database.

The port priority parameter helps determine which bridge port becomes the designated port. In a network topology that has multiple bridge ports connected to a single segment, the port with the lowest port priority becomes the designated port for the segment.
The port path cost parameter is used to help determine the designated port for a segment. Generally speaking, the faster the port, the lower the path cost.
The State field shows the current state of the port. The State field can be one of the following: BLOCKING, LISTENING, LEARNING, FORWARDING, or DISABLED.
Shows information about the bridge connected to each port, if applicable. Information includes the priority (hex) and MAC address of the Designated Bridge.
The port ID of the port on the Designated Bridge to which this port is connected. This information includes the port priority (hex) and the port number (hex).

VRRP information

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) support on the HP 10GbE switch provides redundancy between routers in a LAN. This is accomplished by configuring the same virtual router IP address and ID number on each participating VRRP-capable routing device. One of the virtual routers is then elected as the master, based on a number of priority criteria, and assumes control of the shared virtual router IP address. If the master fails, one of the backup virtual routers will assume routing authority and take control of the virtual router IP address.
Command: /info/l3/vrrp
VRRP information: 1: vrid 2, 205.178.18.210, if 1, renter, prio 100, master, server 2: vrid 1, 205.178.18.202, if 1, renter, prio 100, backup 3: vrid 3, 205.178.18.204, if 1, renter, prio 100, master, proxy

Displays information for all multicast groups learned by the switch.
64
Information Menu
When virtual routers are configured, you can view the status of each virtual router using this command. VRRP information includes:
Virtual router number
Virtual router ID and IP address
Interface number
Ownership status
owner identifies the preferred master virtual router. A virtual router is the owner when the IP
address of the virtual router and its IP interface are the same.
renter identifies virtual routers which are not owned by this device
Priority value. During the election process, the virtual router with the highest priority becomes master.
Activity status
master identifies the elected master virtual router. backup identifies that the virtual router is in backup mode. init identifies that the virtual router is waiting for a startup event. Once it receives a startup
event, it transitions to master if its priority is 255, (the IP address owner), or transitions to backup if it is not the IP address owner.
Server status. The server state identifies virtual routers.
Proxy status. The proxy state identifies virtual proxy routers, where the virtual router shares the same
IP address as a proxy IP address. The use of virtual proxy routers enables redundant switches to share the same IP address, minimizing the number of unique IP addresses that must be configured.

The count represented by an instance of this object is incremented when the AlignmentError status is returned by the MAC service to the Logical Link Control (LLC) (or other MAC user).
Received frames for which multiple error conditions obtained are, according to the conventions of IEEE 802.3 Layer Management, counted exclusively according to the error status presented to the LLC.
A count of frames received on a particular interface that are an integral number of octets in length but do not pass the Frame Check Sequence (FCS) check.
The count represented by an instance of this object is incremented when the frameCheckError status is returned by the MAC service to the LLC (or other MAC user).
Received frames for which multiple error conditions obtained are, according to the conventions of IEEE 802.3 Layer Management, counted exclusively according to the error status presented to the LLC.
A count of successfully transmitted frames on a particular interface for which transmission is inhibited by exactly one collision.
A frame that is counted by an instance of this object is also counted by the corresponding instance of the
ifOutUcastPkts, ifOutMulticastPkts, or ifOutBroadcastPkts, and is not counted by the
corresponding instance of the dot3StatsMultipleCollisionFrame object.

Statistics Description
dot3StatsMultipleCollisionFrames
dot3StatsLateCollisions
dot3StatsExcessiveCollisions
dot3StatsInternalMacTransmitErrors
A count of successfully transmitted frames on a particular interface for which transmission is inhibited by more than one collision.
A frame that is counted by an instance of this object is also counted by the corresponding instance of either the
ifOutUcastPkts, ifOutMulticastPkts, or ifOutBroadcastPkts, and is not counted by the corresponding instance of the dot3StatsSingleCollisionFrames object.
The number of times that a collision is detected on a particular interface later than 512 bit-times into the transmission of a packet.
Five hundred and twelve bit-times corresponds to 51.2 microseconds on a 10 Mbps system. A (late) collision included in a count represented by an instance of this object is also considered as a (generic) collision for purposes of other collision­related statistics.
A count of frames for which transmission on a particular interface fails due to excessive collisions.
A count of frames for which transmission on a particular interface fails due to an internal MAC sublayer transmit error.
A frame is only counted by an instance of this object if it is not counted by the corresponding instance of either the
dot3StatsLateCollisions object, the dot3StatsExcessiveCollisions object, or the dot3StatsCarrierSenseErrors object.
The precise meaning of the count represented by an instance of this object is implementation specific. In particular, an instance of this object may represent a count of transmission errors on a particular interface that are not otherwise counted.
dot3StatsFrameTooLongs
A count of frames received on a particular interface that exceeds the maximum permitted frame size.
The count represented by an instance of this object is incremented when the frameTooLong status is returned by the MAC service to the LLC (or other MAC user).

The total number of input datagrams received from interfaces, including those received in error.
The number of input datagrams discarded due to errors in their IP headers, including bad checksums, version number mismatch, other format errors, time-to-live exceeded, errors discovered in processing their IP options, and so on.
The number of input datagrams discarded because the IP address in their IP header destination field was not a valid address to be received at this switch. This count includes invalid addresses (for example, 0.0.0.0) and addresses of unsupported classes (for example, Class E).
For entities which are not IP gateways and therefore do not forward datagrams, this counter includes datagrams discarded because the destination address was not a local address.
The number of locally addressed datagrams received successfully but discarded because of an unknown or unsupported protocol.
The number of input IP datagrams for which no problems were encountered to prevent their continued processing, but which were discarded (for example, for lack of buffer space).
This counter does not include any datagrams discarded while awaiting re-assembly.
The total number of input datagrams successfully delivered to IP user-protocols (including ICMP).
The total number of IP datagrams that local IP user-protocols (including ICMP) supplied to IP in requests for transmission.
This counter does not include any datagrams counted in ipForwDatagrams.
ipOutDiscards
ipDefaultTTL
The number of output IP datagrams for which no problem was encountered to prevent their transmission to their destination, but which were discarded (for example, for lack of buffer space).
This counter would include datagrams counted in ipForwDatagrams if any such packets met this (discretionary) discard criterion.
The default value inserted into the Time-To-Live (TTL) field of the IP header of datagrams originated at this switch, whenever a TTL value is not supplied by the transport layer protocol.

VRRP statistics

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) support on the HP 10GbE switch provides redundancy between routers in a LAN. This is accomplished by configuring the same virtual router IP address and ID number on each participating VRRP-capable routing device.
One of the virtual routers is then elected as the master, based on a number of priority criteria, and assumes control of the shared virtual router IP address. If the master fails, one of the backup virtual routers will assume routing authority and take control of the virtual router IP address.
When virtual routers are configured, you can display protocol statistics for VRRP.
