This manual contains the information you will need to conﬁgure bridging and routing functions on an Nways device . The manual describes all of the features and functions that are in the software. A speciﬁc Nways device might not support all of the features and functions described. If a feature or function is device-speciﬁc, a notice in the relevant chapter or section indicates that restriction.

This manual supports the IBM 2210 and refers to this product as either “the router” or “the device.” The examples in the manual represent the conﬁguration of an IBM 2210 but the actual output you see may vary. Use the examples as a guideline to what you might see while conﬁguring your device.

Who Should Read This Manual: This manual is intended for persons who install and operate computer networks. Although experience with computer networking hardware and software is helpful, you do not need programming experience to use the protocol software.

To get additional information: Changes may be made to the documentation after the books are printed. If additional information is available or if changes are required after the books have been printed, the changes will be in a ﬁle (named README) on diskette 1 of the conﬁguration program diskettes.

About the Software

IBM Nways Multiprotocol Routing Services is the software that supports the IBM 2210 (licensed program number 5801-ARR). This software has these components:

v The base code, which consists of:

– The code that provides the routing, bridging, data link switching, and SNMP

agent functions for the device.

– The router user interface, which allows you to conﬁgure, monitor, and use the

Multiprotocol Routing Services base code installed on the device. The router user interface is accessed locally through an ASCII terminal or emulator attached to the service port, or remotely through a Telnet session or modem-attached device.

The base code is installed at the factory on the 2210.

v The Conﬁguration Program for IBM Nways Multiprotocol Routing Services

(referred to in this book as the

Conﬁguration Program

) is a graphical user interface that enables you to conﬁgure the device from a stand-alone workstation. The Conﬁguration Program includes error checking and online help information.

The Conﬁguration Program is not pre-loaded at the factory; it is shipped separately from the device as part of the software order.

You can also obtain the Conﬁguration Program for IBM Nways Multiprotocol Routing Services from the IBM Networking Technical Support home page. See

Conﬁguration Program User’s Guide for Nways Multiprotocol and Access Services Products,

GC30-3830, for the server address and directories.

Conventions Used in This Manual

The following conventions are used in this manual to show command syntax and program responses:

1. The abbreviated form of a command is underlined as shown in the following example:

reload

In this example, you can enter either the whole command (reload) or its abbreviation (rel).

2. Keyword choices for a parameter are enclosed in brackets and separated by the word or. For example:

command [keyword1 or keyword2]

Choose one of the keywords as a value for the parameter.

3. Three periods following an option mean that you enter additional data (for example, a variable) after the option. For example:

time host ...

In this example, you enter the IP address of the host in place of the periods, as explained in the description of the command.

4. In information displayed in response to a command, defaults for an option are enclosed in brackets immediately following the option. For example:

Media (UTP/STP) [UTP]

In this example, the media defaults to UTP unless you specify STP.

5. Keyboard key combinations are indicated in text in the following ways:

v Ctrl-P v Ctrl -

The key combination Ctrl - indicates that you should press the Ctrl key and the hyphen simultaneously. In certain circumstances, this key combination changes the command line prompt.

6. Names of keyboard keys are indicated like this: Enter

7. Variables (that is, names used to represent data that you deﬁne) are denoted by italics. For example:

File Name: filename.ext

The following list applies to changes in the software that were made in Version 3.2. The changes consist of:

v New functions:

– IP Version 6

- TCP6, UDP6, Telnet, PING-6 and traceroute-6, ICMPv6, and IPsec

- Neighbor discovery protocol (NDP) for host auto-conﬁguration

- Static routes, RIPng, Protocol Independent Multicast-Dense Mode (PIM-DM), and Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD)

- Conﬁgured or automatic tunneling of IPv6 packets over IPv4 networks

- Support for Ethernet, Token Ring, and PPP interfaces

– Resource ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP)

- Signalling mechanisms that enable applications on IPv4 networks to reserve network resources to achieve a desired quality of service for packet delivery

- Supported on ATM point-to-point SVCs, PPP, Frame Relay, X.25, Token Ring, and Ethernet

– Binary Synchronous Relay (BRLY) support for BSC interfaces

Binary Synchronous Relay (BRLY) support for tunneling Bisync Synchronous (BSC) transmissions over a IPv4 network to a partner 2210 or 2212 router

v Enhanced functions:

– Base Services

- Event Logging System (ELS) enhancements to capture, format, and offload large volumes of ELS messages

- Packet trace support for PPP, Frame Relay, and V.34 interfaces.

– Bridging support for a multiaccess bridge port for source route bridging over

Frame Relay. The multiaccess port incorporates many DLCIs in a single bridge port for improved scalability.

Getting Help

| | | | | |

This edition continues a number of editorial changes to this book and the other software books that will:

v Reorganize the material v Remove any unnecessary and redundant information v Improve retrievability v Add additional clariﬁcation to some information

The ﬁrst step in reorganization has been completed as follows: v The part titled Understanding, Using and Conﬁguring Features has been

moved into the

Guide

Using and Conﬁguring Features

book from the

Software User’s

v The chapters on using, conﬁguring, and monitoring the DIALs feature have been

moved into the

Using and Conﬁguring Features

book.

This reorganization will take place over a number of editions. If you would like to comment on these changes, please mail or fax your comments on the form for readers’ comments at the back of this publication.

At the command prompts, you can obtain help in the form of a listing of the commands available at that level. To do this, type ? (the help command), and then press Enter. Use ? to list the commands that are available from the current level. You can usually enter a ? after a speciﬁc command name to list its options. For example, the following information appears if you enter ? at the * prompt:

Exiting a Lower Level Environment

The multiple-level nature of the software places you in secondary, tertiary, and even lower level environments as you conﬁgure or operate the 2210. To return to the next higher level, enter the exit command. To get to the secondary level, continue entering exit until you receive the secondary level prompt (either Config> or +).

For example, to exit the IP protocol conﬁguration process:

IP config> exit Config>

If you need to get to the primary level (OPCON), enter the intercept character (Ctrl P by default).
