Chapter 1 8 Introduction Avaya M770 ATM Switch User’s Guide
Chapter 2 Getting Started This chapter describes how to get started with an Avaya M770 ATM Switch. This includes an overview of the management and configuration tasks that you should perform soon after installation. Powering up the Avaya M770 ATM Switch During the system startup of an Avaya M770 ATM Switch, the switch automatically performs a number of self-tests on its internal hardware.
Chapter 2 Getting Started Management from a network management station You can manage the M770 ATM Switch using SNMP management running over UDP/IP over an Emulated LAN (ELAN). • Connect the management station to the ELAN that the management LEC is connected to, or make sure it can communicate with that ELAN. • Set the IP address of the M770 ATM Switch management LEC, and make sure the management station is either on the same subnet or can communicate with that subnet.
Chapter 2 Getting Started Setting the IP address To access and manage an M770 ATM Switch remotely, for example using Telnet or SNMP, an IP address must be set for the switch. You will need to decide whether the M770 ATM Switch will use BOOTP to acquire its IP address or whether you wish to set it manually. If you plan to use BOOTP, make sure a BOOTP server is on the same ELAN as the M770 ATM Switch management LEC, or there is a route from a BOOTP server to the ELAN.
Chapter 2 Getting Started ATM Port Configuration Setting the virtual port to its default configuration If you are attaching an end-station or an edge device that supports ILMI to an Avaya M770 then you must ensure that the virtual port on the M770 ATM Switch is using its default configuration. For a list of the default port settings, see Appendix A, “Default Settings on a New Avaya M770 ATM Switch”. For example, to set vport 8.4.0 to its default settings type: M15-155s8:/>vport disable 8.4.
Chapter 2 Getting Started For example, if you are connecting an Avaya M400 Gate Switch LSA+ module which does not support ILMI, to port 8.4.0 on the M770 ATM Switch, you should configure port 8.4.0 on the M770 ATM Switch by performing the following steps: M15-155s8:/>vport disable 8.4.0 M15-155s8:/>vport disable 8.4.0 ILMI M15-155s8:/>vport set stacktype 8.4.0 UNI 3.0 M15-155s8:/>vport set vpirange 8.4.0 [0..0] M15-155s8:/>vport set vcirange 8.4.0 [32..1023] M15-155s8:/>vport enable 8.4.
Chapter 2 Getting Started Connecting to another ATM switch which doesn’t support PNNI If you are attaching another ATM switch that doesn’t support PNNI, you must configure a route to that switch. For example, if you are connecting a Collage 740 to port 8.5.0 on the M770 ATM Switch, you should configure the static routing table by performing the following steps: (assume that the partial ATM prefix of the Collage 740 is 39.04) M15-155s8:/>route add 39.04. 8.5.
Chapter 2 • Getting Started For the switches that are capable of becoming PGLs (as determine in step 4) do the following: 1 Configure the level scope as determine in step 6 for all levels (1-5) using the command: M15-155s8:/>/route pnni config level set 2 Configure the leadership priority of the node in the lower level to a value greater than 0.
Chapter 2 Getting Started Setting up LAN Emulation Each module in the Avaya M770 ATM Switch can host one LECS and multiple combined LES and BUS. This means that on one switch, there can be several resilient LECS, and for one ELAN, several distributed LES. The Avaya M770 ATM Switch LES does not have to reside in the same device as the LECS. The module that is elected as the Master will host the Management LEC.
Chapter 2 Getting Started Note: Ensure that the number of modules hosting a specific LES/BUS (e.g. default) does not exceed the maximum number of LESes per ELAN as defined in: lan elan maxles (default 5, maximum 10). 5 Determine if secure “Closed” ELANs are required. If required then you will need to set-up an ELAN client database in the Avaya M770. For information about setting up ELAN clients, see Chapter 16 Managing ELAN Clients. — By default when ELANs are created they are set-up as “Open” ELANs.
Chapter 2 Getting Started Following is a simple configuration example, which will enable you to start working with the LANE services and to connect a network management station which uses SNMP and CajunView Management. 1 You need to decide where you want the LECS.
Chapter 2 4 Getting Started In order to manage the M770 ATM Switch, the Management LEC must register with the same ELAN as the NMS or there should be a router between the ELANs. By default the Management LEC is configured to join the Ethernet ELAN default.

Chapter 3 How to Use the Command-line Interface This chapter explains how to get management access to the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface and how to use the command-line interface to manage the switch. Getting Connected You can access the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface by one of the following methods: • Direct connection to an ATM module using a serial interface, using a VT100 terminal or a PC running a terminal emulation program.
Chapter 3 How to Use the Command-line Interface How the Command-line Interface Works The command-line interface provides a set of commands that you can use to configure the M770 ATM Switch. The commands are arranged in a hierarchy such that related commands are grouped together in a single functional group. A functional group can also contain one or more functional groups, and so forth. When you login to the command-line interface, you will be placed at the root of the hierarchy.
Chapter 3 How to Use the Command-line Interface Note: If you press the RETURN key immediately after the prompt, it has the same effect as entering the up command. If you are at a particular point in the hierarchy and you need to perform a command elsewhere in the hierarchy, you must enter the slash symbol (/) followed by the full hierarchical path followed by the command.
Chapter 3 How to Use the Command-line Interface For example, the output of the tree command from the pport functional group prompt is: Command: M15-155s8:/pport>tree pport Output: +-disable -- Disable a physical port +-enable -- Enable a physical port +-reset -- Reset all settable parameters on a physical port to their defaults +-set -- Set a physical port parameter | +-framing -- Specify the framing | +-payloadscrambling -- Specify whether payload scrambling is on or off | `-txrate -- Specify port trans
Chapter 3 How to Use the Command-line Interface Using the on-line help On-line help is always available and can be obtained at any time by typing help. The following information will be displayed: • All commands and functional groups available at the current position in the hierarchy, in alphabetical order. • The universal commands. These are commands that are independent of the hierarchy. They can be executed irrespective of where you are in the hierarchy. The help output from the root is shown below.
Chapter 3 How to Use the Command-line Interface Help is also available for individual commands. To obtain help on a command, type help followed immediately by the full command. As an example, the help output for the address esi command is: Command: Output: M15-155s8:/>help address esi esi -- Display the module ESI address Syntax: address esi ...
Chapter 4 Managing Miscellaneous Commands This chapter describes how to use the command-line interface to set passwords, address information, and CAC information. For information about how to access and use the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface, see Chapter 3, “How to Use the Command-line Interface”.
Chapter 4 Managing Miscellaneous Commands Managing the Sub Agents The access command displays or accesses other modules in the switch. It opens a telnet session to the module located in slot .

Chapter 4 Managing Miscellaneous Commands Configuring the Avaya M770 ATM Switch Address Information Setting the Avaya M770 ATM Switch IP address, subnet mask, and gateway An M770 ATM Switch will need an IP address so that it can be managed remotely. You must decide whether the M770 ATM Switch will use BOOTP to acquire its IP address or whether the address must be set manually.
Chapter 4 Managing Miscellaneous Commands Viewing Avaya M770 ATM Switch IP address information You can display IP address information for the M770 ATM Switch. For information about changing the IP address information, see “Setting the Avaya M770 ATM Switch IP address, subnet mask, and gateway” on page 31. To view the IP address information, use the ip show command. The message “initializing” indicates that the LEC has not yet joined the ELAN. Command: Output: M15-155s8:/>ip show IP address: 192.32.220.
Chapter 4 Managing Miscellaneous Commands Viewing or changing the switch prefix When a M770 ATM Switch with a blank EEROM is powered up, a default prefix is generated and stored in the EEROM. The default prefix is 39.00.00.00.00.00.00.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx where x is the MAC address of the switch. Note that the first byte of all switch prefixes must start with one of the following: • 39. An ATM Forum Identifier (AFI) for the Data Country Code (DCC).
Chapter 4 Managing Miscellaneous Commands Resetting the saved switch prefix You can reset the saved switch prefix to current address. This prevents the current address from changing even after a reset. To reset the saved switch prefix, use the address reset command. Command: M15-155s8:/>address reset Setting the switch prefix to its default value The default prefix is 39.00.00.00.00.00.00.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx where x is the MAC address of the switch master agent module.
Chapter 4 Managing Miscellaneous Commands Using PING The M770 ATM Switch allows you to PING an IP address. The M770 ATM Switch will send one Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo request to the address each second until you press CTRL-C. Whenever the remote device responds, the time taken to respond is displayed in milliseconds. To PING an IP address, use the ip ping command. Command: Example: Parameters: Output: M15-155s8:/>ip ping
M15-155s8:/>ip ping 192.32.220.Chapter 4 Managing Miscellaneous Commands Managing the IP Cache This section explains how to view the IP and route ARP cache of the M770 ATM Switch and how to delete entries in the ARP cache. Listing the contents of the Avaya M770 ATM Switch’s IP ARP cache When listing the contents of the M770 ATM Switch’s IP ARP cache, the destination IP and MAC addresses are shown. Also displayed is whether or not the ARP process has completed for each destination IP address in the IP ARP cache.
Chapter 4 Managing Miscellaneous Commands Listing the contents of the Avaya M770 ATM Switch’s IP route cache The destination IP address, the router address, and the network mask are displayed for each entry in the IP route cache. The default router address is also displayed. This uses the M770 ATM Switch’s IP gateway address. To display the contents of the M770 ATM Switch’s IP route cache, use the ip routecache command.

Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Table 6.2 Output from the vport show config command Field Description Poll Mode ILMI polling is used to verify that the same end-station remains attached at a given port. There are two methods that can be used: • check the ESI has not changed. This is referred to as “Port + ESI”. • check that the system up-time has not changed by a significant amount. This is referred to as “SysUpTime”.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports The vport show status command displays the information described in Table 6.3. Table 6.3 Output from the vport show status command Field Description Virtual Port Id The virtual port. This is displayed in the format ... Admin State The administrative state of the virtual port. If the state is UP then this virtual port is enabled. If the state is DOWN then this virtual port is disabled.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Listing the VPI and VCI range information for all virtual ports You can view the VPI and signalling VCI range information for all virtual ports on a module or for a specific virtual port. Any virtual port information that is marked with an asterisk (*) has been learned by the M770 ATM Switch during the ILMI dialogue with the remote device. Information that is not marked with an asterisk has either been configured by the user or is the default setting for the virtual port.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Listing bandwidth information for all virtual ports To view bandwidth information for all virtual ports on a module, use the vport show bandwidth command. DS3 modules use traffic shaping on virtual ports. Traffic is shaped based on the total bandwidth assigned to each virtual port. The bandwidth assigned can be seen as Total BW. For more information see “Traffic shaping for DS3 virtual ports“ on page 64. On non-DS3 modules there is no rate limit shaping.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Configuring Virtual Ports Creating a virtual port Note: Before you can create a new virtual port you must assign a VPI range. To do this you must first reduce the VPI range of the root virtual port. For more information about setting the VPI range for a virtual port, see Setting Virtual Port Parameters later in this chapter on page 69. To control shaping use the vport create command.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports bandwidth assigned for a vport is 104268 CPS divided by 8. However, if we were using PLCP, the default bandwidth would be 95990 CPS divided by 8. Deleting a virtual port To delete a virtual port, use the vport delete command. Command: Example: Parameter: M15-155s8:/>vport delete M15-155s8:/>vport delete 8.1.4 The virtual port in the form ...
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Managing ILMI Disabling ILMI on a virtual port If an attached device does not support ILMI, you will need to disable ILMI on the virtual port. Note that if the remote device is an end-station then address registration will not take place automatically and a static route will need to be added for the attached device. To disable ILMI on a virtual port, use the vport disable command.
Chapter 6 Parameters: Managing Virtual Ports The virtual port in the form ... ilmimultireg ILMImultireg is an enhancement to ILMI, when ILMI is disabled, ILMImultireg is also disabled. By default ilmimultireg is enabled on a M770 ATM Switch. Enabling ILMI on a virtual port To enable ILMI on a virtual port, use the vport enable command. Command: Example: Parameters: M15-155s8:/>vport enable ilmi M15-155s8:/>vport enable 8.1.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Setting the ILMI version on a virtual port This parameter changes the ILMI version used on this vport. By default, this parameter is ILMI 4.0 which is backwards compatible with devices using ILMI 3.1. To set the ILMI version on the virtual port use the vport set ilmiver command. Command: Example: Parameters: M15-155s8:/>vport set ilmiver [31 | 40] M15-155s8:/>vport set ilmiver 8.1.0 31 The virtual port in the form ..
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Setting Virtual Port Parameters You can set individual parameters for a virtual port. Once a virtual port parameter has been set, ILMI will not override the parameter when the virtual port is reenabled. If you want ILMI to override a set parameter, you must disable the virtual port and clear the parameter. You must then re-enable the virtual port.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Example: M15-155s8:/>vport set profile 8.1.0 user Parameters: The virtual port in the form ... user During signalling the virtual port will act as the user side of the connection. network During signalling the virtual port will act as the network side of the connection. The default signalling profile is “network”. However, on an inter-switch link, using IISP, one side of the link will have to be configured to “user” side.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Setting the signalling VPCI range You can set a signalling VPCI range for a virtual port. This range can only be changed on the root virtual port. Note: You must disable the virtual port before you can change or reset any virtual port parameters. For more information about how to disable a virtual port, see “Disabling a virtual port” on page 65. To set a signalling VPCI range for a virtual port, use the vport set sigvpcirange command.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Setting the signalling VPC VPI range On a root virtual port (which may have several VPIs associated with it) there is an option of signalling virtual paths connections. Therefore, the user should identify the range of VPIs that are associated with Signaled Virtual Paths (SVPs) and the rest are associated with Permanent Virtual Paths (PVPs).
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Setting the signalling VCI range You can set the signalling VCI range used for SVCs on a virtual port. Usually the VCI range is reduced in order to create PVCs on these VCs. To increase the VPI range or vice versa, please see the command hardware vpivcibits on page 98. Note: You must disable the virtual port before you can change or reset any virtual port parameters. For more information about how to disable a virtual port, see “Disabling a virtual port” on page 65.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Note: You must disable the virtual port before you can change or reset any virtual port parameters. For more information about how to disable a virtual port, see “Disabling a virtual port” on page 65. Setting the QSAAL wait parameter on a virtual port This parameter changes this vport to wait indefinitely for an incoming QSAAL connection. By default, this parameter is disabled. To set the waitqsaal parameter on the virtual port use the vport set waitqsaal command.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Resetting Virtual Port Parameters You can reset a virtual port parameter so that the value returns to the default value. When the virtual port is re-enabled ILMI will, where possible, attempt to learn a value for the parameter through its dialogue with the remote device. If ILMI cannot discover a value for the parameter, the parameter remains at the default setting.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports To reset the profile parameter for a virtual port, use the vport reset profile command. Command: Example: Parameter: M15-155s8:/>vport reset profile M15-155s8:/>vport reset profile 8.1.0 The virtual port in the form ... Resetting the stack type parameter If you reset the virtual port’s stack type parameter, the port will re-learn the stack type when it is enabled and a remote device is connected.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Resetting the signalling VPCI range For more information about this parameter, see ”Setting the signalling VPCI range” on page 71. Note: You must disable the virtual port before you can change or reset any virtual port parameters. For more information about how to disable a virtual port, see “Disabling a virtual port” on page 65. To reset the signalling VPCI range for a virtual port, use the vport reset sigvpcirange command.
Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports Resetting the VPI range If you reset the virtual port’s VPI range and the remote device is an end-station, the port will re-learn the VPI range supported by the end-station when it is enabled and a remote device is connected. For more information about this parameter, see Setting the VPI range on a root virtual port earlier in this chapter. Note: You must disable the virtual port before you can change or reset any virtual port parameters.

Chapter 6 94 Managing Virtual Ports Avaya M770 ATM Switch User’s Guide
Chapter 7 Managing Module Hardware This chapter describes how to use the command-line interface to manage modules installed in an Avaya M770 ATM Switch. For information about how to access and use the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface, see Chapter 3 How to Use the Command-line Interface. Managing Modules This section describes the commands that allow you to manage the modules installed in the Avaya M770 ATM Switch.
Chapter 7 Managing Module Hardware Note: • • • • OC-3 Modules (M15-155F/SF/MS): In order to provide DEFINITY support, all the OC-3 modules in the chassis must be C/S 2.0 or higher. The C/S of the module can be located on the unit’s box or on the module itself. If the module is already inserted in the M770 switch, type the command summary info from the ATM module’s Command Line Interface to see the C/S version. Only ports 1 and 2 can be used by the M-SPS to synchronize its clock.
Chapter 7 Managing Module Hardware Note: Under normal circumstances, the early packet discard threshold should not be changed. Before attempting to change the thresholds, contact Avaya Technical Support. The Cell Loss Priority (CLP) mechanism allows low priority cells (with CLP set to 1) to be discarded first. The CLP threshold cannot be set by the user.
Chapter 7 Managing Module Hardware Managing the speed for the serial port To display the current speed for the serial interface port, use the hardware serial speed command.
Chapter 7 Managing Module Hardware Managing Trunk ID range for P2MP PVCs When the you wish to set a P2MP PVC, you need to assign trunk ID to the P2MP call manually. The trunk ID is used as a unique identifier for the P2MP call, on both the ingress module (on which the root of the call is connected), and on the egress modules (on which the leaves of the call are connected). Trunk IDs are defined on a module basis using the following commands.
Chapter 7 Managing Module Hardware Note: T least one VPI has to be reserved for the signalling VPC. After the next reboot, the VPC VPI configuration would look like this:: Command: Output: M15-155s8:/>hardware vpcvpirange Configured VPC VPI range 6..7 Current VPC VPI range 6..7 At this point, the user can configure Permanent Virtual Paths (PVPs). For more details about PVPs, please refer to Chapter 8, “Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs)”.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) This chapter describes how to use the command-line interface to manage PVC connections in an Avaya M770 ATM Switch. For information about how to access and use the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface, see Chapter 3, “How to Use the Command-line Interface”. Managing Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Managing PVC connections Not all ATM equipment currently supports UNI signalling.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Note: Before you attempt to set up a PVC you will need to reduce the signalling VCI range, for a virtual port, that is used for SVCs. Do not use a VCI in the range [0...31] as these are reserved by the ATM Forum. To reduce the VCI range, see Setting Virtual Port Parameters in Chapter 6 Managing Virtual Ports. Since a VCL is bi-directional, a traffic descriptor needs to be defined for the transmit and receive data paths belonging to the VCL.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) To create a PVC connection, use the pvc setup pp command: Command: Example1: M15-155s8:/>pvc setup pp [ []] Setting up a PP PVC between 2 ports on the same module: M15-155s8:/>pvc setup pp 8.1.0.1001 8.2.0.1002 6 2 Example2: Setting up a PP PVC between 2 ports on different modules but on the same switch: M15-155s8:/>On module 8: M15-155s8:/>pvc setup pp 8.1.0.1001 9.1.0.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Traffic descriptor does not have to be specified. If they are not, UBR traffic will be assumed and an existing UBR traffic descriptor will be used. If no such traffic descriptor exists, one will be automatically set up for UBR traffic. If any other type of traffic is required, you must first set up the traffic descriptors in the usual way (using the command td setup) on all required modules.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Index is one of the VCLs of the PVC connection Note: If PP PVC - the PVC and associated VCLs are free. If P2MP PVC if = Root VCL, the all PMP tree PVCs and their associated VCLs are free. If = Branch VCL, the designated PVC and it'sassociated Branch is free, If last Branch PVC then Root VCL is free too. Or M15-155s8:/>pvc free all to free all PVC connections and associated VCLs.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Table 8.1 Output from the pvc connection show command Field Description Oper The operational state of the PVC connection. • If the state is “UP” then this PVC is functional. • If the state is “DOWN” then this PVC is not functional. This may be because either the PVC is disabled or a port (on this switch) used by the PVC is down. Type Indicates whether this is a Point-to-Point PVC (PP) or a Point-toMultipoint (P2MP) PVC.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Enabling a PVC connection To enable a disabled PVC connection, use the pvc enable command. Command: Example: Output Parameter: M15-155s8:/>pvc enable M15-155s8:/>pvc enable 9.2.0.805 PMP PVC 270000002 (Branch VCL 9.2.0.805): admin up Note: If PP PVC - the PVC is enabled. If P2MP PVC If the VCL is Root VCL, the entire PMP tree and associated VCLs are enabled.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Table 8.2 108 Output from the pvc vcl show command Field Description Oper The operational state of the corresponding PVC connection. If the state is “UP” then the PVC is functional. If the state is “DOWN” then the PVC is not functional. This may be because either the PVC is disabled or a port (on this switch) used by the PVC is down. If the state is “NULL” then the VCL in question has no PVC associated with it.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Managing PVP Connections Managing PVP Connections In some network configurations there may be a need to configure a Permanent Virtual Path (PVP) which is sometimes called Tunneling. The PVP or the Tunnel is created to cross as many ATM switches as needed, so the remote ends would see each other as if they are adjacent.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Creating a PVP connection A PVP is created by constructing two VPLs. The VPLs describe the edges of the PVP, see Figure 8.2. Refer also to “Creating PVPs” on page 293. Figure 8.2 A PVP Connection PVP Connection VPL A VPL B PVP connections will be re-established automatically when the M770 ATM Switch powers up. You can have up to 64 PVP connections on a module.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Freeing a PVP connection To free a PVP connection, use the pvp free command: Command: M15-155s8:/>pvp free |all Parameters: all The index of the PVP connection All configured PVPs. In order to free a PVP connection between 2 modules, you must type the command in the CLI of each module. Listing the current PVP connections To list all current PVP connections which are set up on the M770 ATM Switch use the pvp show command.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Disabling a PVP connection To temporarily disable an established PVP connection, use the pvp disable command. Command: M15-155s8:/>pvp disable Example: M15-155s8:/>pvp disable enable 270047153 Parameters: PVP connection index Enabling a PVP connection To enable an established PVP connection, use the pvp enable command.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Managing Traffic Descriptors A Traffic Descriptor defines the service category that will be used to transport traffic and the bandwidth that is required. Each service category has its own set of parameters. The M770 ATM Switch can support up to 32 different user configured traffic descriptors for the creation of PVCs. The M770 ATM Switch supports three service categories: • Constant Bit Rate (CBR) traffic, such as uncompressed voice or video.
Chapter 8 Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) Creating a UBR traffic descriptor To create a UBR traffic descriptor, use the td setup UBR command. Command: M15-155s8:/>td setup UBR Example: M15-155s8:/>td setup UBR 1 Parameter: An unique identifier for this traffic descriptor. Creating a VBR traffic descriptor There are three types of VBR traffic descriptors that can be created.
Chapter 8 Parameters: Permanent Virtual Connections (PVCs and PVPs) An unique identifier for this traffic descriptor. The combined PCR for all cells regardless of whether the CLP bit is set in the ATM cell header. The SCR for cells where the CLP bit is not set. The MBS for cells where the CLP bit is not set.

The scope value indicates up to which hierarchical level the address will be advertised. The lower the value is, the wider the domain that gets the address. Value of 0 indicates that the address will be advertised through out the entire PNNI domain. The advertisement scope is mapped from the UNI scope. For more details refer to the Static Routing chapter.
Chapter 10 Managing PNNI Routing PNNI Local Topology Information Local PNNI Links The PNNI Local Links command gives information about the links on which the Hello protocol, and possibly the Database Synchronization (DBS) take place. On the physical level, these links would be local to the module. On a logical level, these links would be local to the LGN, i.e. the PDC slot (MA) on the switch that acts as PGL/LGN.
Chapter 10 Managing PNNI Routing The output in a tabular format includes the following information: 132 Field Description Port The local port number. Hello State The state of the Hello protocol on this link. “twoWayInside” An inside link (within the peer group). The node on the other side was discovered correctly. “commonOutside” An outside link (to a node on a different peer group).
Chapter 10 Managing PNNI Routing Field Description Svc State This field is applicable only for logical links, in which the Hello protocol runs over an SVC-RCC. It indicate the SVC-RCC state. If the state is 'open' it means that the PNNI control channel between LGNs was opened correctly, and now the PNNI protocols should get to their final states.

Chapter 13 LANE Services This chapter describes the features of the LANE Services in an Avaya M770 ATM Switch. LANE Components in an Avaya M770 ATM Switch Each module in the Avaya M770 ATM Switch can host one LECS and multiple combined LES and BUS. This means that on one switch, there can be several resilient LECS, and for one ELAN, several distributed LES. The LES does not have to reside in the same device as the LECS. The elected master module in each switch hosts the management LEC.
Chapter 13 LANE Services LANE 2 Capability LANE servers in M770 ATM switch are capable of supporting LUNI 2.0. By default, each ELAN supported by the M770 LECS is configured in 'auto' mode, meaning, that the first LES that registered at the LECS for this ELAN, determines whether the ELAN would use a LUNI 1.0 or LUNI 2.0 protocol. This ELAN capability is configurable. For more details, refer to Chapter 16, “Managing an ELAN“. If the ELAN is determined to use LUNI 1.0 and a LUNI 2.
Chapter 13 LANE Services Proprietary resilient LECS The proprietary resilient LECS provides automatic redundancy for the active LECS, by continuously monitoring the status of all resilient LECS. From the list of available resilient LECSes on the network, the selection of the “active LECS” is done by a process of election. To carry out this election, all ATM switches must be M770s, and ILMI between them must be enabled.
Chapter 13 LANE Services Figure 13.
Chapter 13 LANE Services The LES and BUS in an Avaya M770 ATM Switch Each module can provide up to 16 combined LES/BUS pairs. By default, all modules have one Ethernet LES/BUS named “default,” that will try to register with the LECS. The M770 ATM Switch LESes support a proprietary automatic LES address determination method. Therefore, all the M770 ATM Switch LESes can automatically register with an M770 ATM Switch LECS.
Chapter 13 LANE Services Proprietary Distributed LANE Services The M770 ATM Switch LECS supports a proprietary system for a distributed LES/ BUS in advance of implementing LANE version 2. This will enable not only resiliency of the ELAN but will also increase the number of clients (LECs) that can be supported per ELAN on multiple modules (up to 2,500 LECs per ELAN). This is achieved by allowing a single ELAN to be distributed over multiple LES/BUS pairs in several modules (up to 10 LES/BUS’s per ELAN).
Chapter 13 LANE Services Round-robin. This is the default method set when creating a new ELAN. No user configuration is required. The LEC is assigned to the next distributed LES address in sequence (each distributed LES is used in turn). LECs assignment to the most suitable LES is left to chance. Group address User configuration is required. Every distributed LES on the ELAN is assigned a group address. Note, the same group address is used by all the distributed LESes.

Chapter 14 Managing the LECS This chapter describes how to use the command-line interface to manage the LECS in the Avaya M770 ATM Switch. For information about how to access and use the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface, see Chapter 3, “How to Use the Command-line Interface”. LECS Location Any ATM network using LANE must have one active LECS that acts as a central coordinator, making sure that all LECs join the correct ELANs, even though there may be a number of resilient (standby) LECS.
Chapter 14 Managing the LECS If the M770 ATM Switch is looking for a remote LECS then it can be configured to use a LECS that is advertising one of the following addresses: • The WKA • A specific ATM address on the network. • The address of an elected M770 ATM Switch resilient LECS. Viewing the Location of the LECS You can view the current location of the active LECS on the network. Note: The output display from the following command will depend on the current location of the active LECS.
Chapter 14 Managing the LECS Changing the location of the LECS You can configure the LECS in a M770 ATM Switch to be either local or remote. If you configure a local LECS then you can specify it to be advertised as either a simple LECS or a resilient LECS. If you do not specify the type of local LECS, then by default a resilient LECS is created. Local simple LECS When creating or changing to a local LECS: • If a local LECS does not already exist on the switch then a local LECS is created.
Chapter 14 Managing the LECS To change the location and type of the local LECS, use the lane lecs location local command: Command: M15-155s8:/>lane lecs location local {wka | }[{simple | resilient}] Parameters wka : simple An active local simple LECS is created, using the WKA. Remote clients that make requests for the WKA will be routed to this LECS via PNNI. simple An active simple LECS is created, using the modules address with the specified selector.
Chapter 14 Managing the LECS Setting priority level for a resilient LECS You can rig the election of a resilient LECS, by placing it on a higher priority level than other LECSes. The higher the priority assigned to a resilient LECS, the better the chances of it winning the election. By default all resilient LECSes when created are assigned a priority of 128. Avaya recommends that you set the priority of one of the resilient LECS to have a higher priority than the others.
Chapter 14 Managing the LECS Managing Resilient LECS Candidates Note: If you are not planning to use PNNI routing or want the M770 ATM Switch switches in the third party environments to host a resilient LECS, contact Avaya Technical Support. They can provide you with further information on what configuration is required, depending on your third party switch, to get LECS redundancy on your M770 ATM Switch switches.
Chapter 14 Managing the LECS The lane lecs resilient show command displays the information described in Table 14.1. Table 14.1 Output from the lane lec resilient show command Field Description Index A unique number assigned for each resilient LECS known to this switch. Index 0 is assigned to the local LECS. Election Protocol Endpoint Address The full 20-byte ATM address that the resilient LECS uses to communicate with other resilient LECSes.
Chapter 14 Managing the LECS To create communication connection to a remote candidate, use the lane lecs resilient create command: Command: M15-155s8:/>lane lecs resilient create
Parameters: This is the address the candidate uses in order to communicate with other candidates on the network. To construct the address, you must append a selector of “7F” to the modules address.Chapter 14 Managing the LECS Specified ELAN Defaults in the LECS Viewing default ELANs When a LEC contacts the LECS, it usually specifies the ELAN name or the ELAN type that it wants to join. You can define up to 64 different ELAN names in an M770 ATM Switch LECS. You can define default ELANs for switches hosting a local LECS. These are the ELANs that a LEC should join if it only specifies the ELAN type and not the name of an ELAN.
Chapter 14 Managing the LECS Specifying default ELANs For information on default ELANs, see Viewing default ELANs earlier in this chapter. To specify a default ELAN, use the lane lecs default command: Command: M15-155s8:/>lane lecs default Example: M15-155s8:/>lane lecs default ethernet default Parameters: The type of ELAN that a LEC or LES asks to join or host. You can select one of the following types: “ethernet” - an Ethernet ELAN type.
Chapter 15 Managing the LES/BUS This chapter describes how to use the command-line interface to manage the LES/ BUS in an Avaya M770 ATM Switch. For information about how to access and use the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface, see Chapter 3, “How to Use the Command-line Interface“. Creating a new LES Each Avaya M770 module can provide up to 16 combined LES/BUS.
Chapter 15 Managing the LES/BUS To create a new LES in the switch, use the lane les create command. For definitions of the various LES modes, see “changing the LES registration mode” later in this chapter. Command: M15-155s8:/>lane les create Example: M15-155s8:/>lane les create marketing_eth distributed ethernet 82 83 Parameters: Enter the name of the ELAN that the new LES will host.
Chapter 15 Managing the LES/BUS Deleting a LES To delete a LES, use the lane les delete command. Command: M15-155s8:/>lane les delete Example: M15-155s8:/>lane les delete marketing_eth This will force all attached LECs off the ELAN - do you want to continue (Y/N)? y Done! Note: The above command will take immediate effect. The command must be used with care as all LECs will be thrown off the ELAN hosted by the LES.
Chapter 15 Managing the LES/BUS The lane les show command displays the information described in Table 15.1. Table 15.1 202 Output from the lane les show command Field Description Information The name of the ELAN the LES is hosting. Type The type of ELAN. This can be either Token-Ring or Ethernet.

Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN This chapter describes how to use the command-line interface to manage an ELAN in an Avaya M770 ATM Switch. For information about how to access and use the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface, see Chapter 3, “How to Use the Command-line Interface”. ELAN Database Maintenance You can create and maintain an ELAN database on any switch that is hosting a resilient LECS. Switches that are hosting resilient LECSes, do not carry out any checking of database consistency.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN To list or change the ELAN names for the default ELAN names, see Specified ELAN Defaults in the LECS in Chapter 14, “Managing the LECS”. Listing all ELANs known to the local LECS In an M770 ATM Switch LECS, the LECS will support 64 ELANs including the predefined ELAN. The name “default” supports Ethernet ELANs. If the ELAN mode has been determined by the first LES to register with the ELAN, then an asterisk (*) will be displayed.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN To create a new ELAN, enter the lane elan create command: Command: Example: Parameters: M15-155s8:/>lane elan create ethernet M15-155s8:/>lane elan create elan1 auto ethernet The name of the new ELAN. auto If the LES is located in an Avaya M770 then you should use “auto”. ATM address If the LES is located in a device other than the M770 then you must specify its ATM address.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN Renaming an ELAN You can rename an existing ELAN. The rename command will change the name known to the LECS. If you are renaming a default ELAN, then the M770 ATM Switch will update the default ELAN name with the new name, therefore no user configuration is required. You must be aware of the following changes that will be required, when you rename an ELAN: • Any LECs that specified the old ELAN name, must be configured to use the new ELAN name.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN To change the operating mode of LESes for a specific ELAN, use the lane elan les command: Command: Example: Parameters: M15-155s8:/>lane elan les [auto | ] M15-155s8:/>lane elan les elan1 auto The name of the ELAN. auto Select only if an M770 LES will host the ELAN. Enter the full ATM address of the LES that will host the ELAN. Note: You can set a specific automatic registering mode for an ELAN.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN Changing the Security of an ELAN You can change the security of an ELAN. By default, all ELANs are open ELANs when they are created. This means that any LEC can request to join the open ELAN. If an ELAN is closed then only LECs that have client mappings to the ELAN will be able to access the secure ELAN. For more information about setting up client mappings, see Managing ELAN Clients later in this chapter.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN Managing ELAN Clients A client is a LEC on an ELAN. You can set up ELAN client mappings: • To enable you to map a LEC from one ELAN to another. • To allow only the LECs that match the ELAN client mappings to join a specific secure ELAN. For more information about setting up a secure ELAN, see Changing the Security of an ELAN earlier in this chapter. ELAN client mappings are stored in the local LECS database.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN Figure 16.1 Flowchart showing how client mapping is used When a LEC contacts the LECS, the LECS will search its mappings database. If more than one mapping matches the LEC, the first of each mapping type is considered.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN Creating an ELAN client mapping When you create a new ELAN client mapping to a specific ELAN, first you must decide whether it is a single LEC or a group of LECs that is to be mapped. You must then decide what type of ELAN mapping to use. Possible mapping types are: • An ATM address: the mappings refer to a specific LEC or a group of LECs. • An alias ELAN name: the mappings refer to a specific LEC or a group of LECs. • A MAC address: the mappings always refer to a specific LEC.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN To create a new client mapping for a LEC MAC address, use the lane elan client create mac command: Command: M15-155s8:/>lane elan client create mac Example: M15-155s8:/>lane elan client create mac 00.00.F6.11.2A.3 sales_trn Parameters: The MAC address of the LEC that needs to be mapped to the specified ELAN. The name of the ELAN known to the LECS.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN Displaying ELAN Client Mappings To display all ELAN client mappings, use the lane elan client show command: Command: M15-155s8:/>lane elan client show [atm | mac | alias] Parameters: If no parameter is supplied, all mappings will be listed. atm Lists only LEC ATM address to ELAN mappings. mac Lists only LEC MAC address to ELAN mappings. alias Lists only LEC alias ELAN name to ELAN mappings.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN Deleting ELAN client mappings To delete an ELAN client mapping, use the lane elan client delete command: Command: M15-155s8:/>lane elan client delete Example: Parameters: M15-155s8:/>lane elan client delete mac 2 Select which type of client mapping is to be deleted. This is the identifier for the mapping you wish to delete. Use the lane elan client show command to display the identifiers for the mappings.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN To change the formula for LES address that a LEC will call, enter the lane elan lesaddress command: Command: M15-155s8:/>lane elan lesaddress [] Example: M15-155s8:/>lane elan lesaddress accounts_elan longest_match Parameters: The name of the ELAN. The name must be 32 characters or less.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN To change the maximum number of LESes in an ELAN, enter the lane elan maxles command: Command: M15-155s8:/>lane elan maxles Example: M15-155s8:/>lane elan maxles accounts_elan 5 Parameters: The name of the ELAN that supports distributed LANE Services. The name must be 32 characters or less. The maximum number of LESes supported in this ELAN. The largest value allowed is 10. The default value is 5.
Chapter 16 Managing an ELAN MAX Frame Size LANE 2.0 capable servers can work with maximum frame size of 1516 and 1580 bytes. The default configuration is 1516 bytes. Use the lane elan maxframesize command to display or change the current configuration. Command: M15-155s8:/>lane elan maxframesize [1516|1580] Parameters: Example: The name of the ELAN. It must be 32 characters or less.

Chapter 17 Managing System Commands This chapter describes how to use the command-line interface to manage the system, and terminal commands. For information about how to access and use the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface, see Chapter 3, “How to Use the Command-line Interface”. Using System Commands This section describes system commands that are used to monitor or perform operations on the Avaya M770 ATM Switch.
Chapter 17 Managing System Commands To download a software image over TFTP, use the system download tftp command. Command: Example: Parameters: M15-155s8:/>system download tftp [] M15-155s8:/>system download tftp 194.31.222.23 m770ATM The IP address of the remote TFTP server. The full name of the file on the TFTP server. If the file is contained in a sub-directory, the complete path and filename must be supplied.
Chapter 17 Managing System Commands Viewing a list of fatal system exceptions A fatal system exception occurs when the CPU detects an error such as a division by zero, or accesses to non-existent memory. A fatal exception causes the M770 ATM Switch to reboot. A breakpoint is a special type of exception which is invoked by the M770 ATM Switch software when it detects an internal inconsistency. To dump a list of fatal system exceptions, use the system breaklog command.
Chapter 17 Managing System Commands Taking a snapshot of the current system configuration You can take a snapshot of the current system configuration of your module to produce a backup configuration file or before you carry out a system upgrade. This file is saved into the flash directory of the switch. To take a snapshot of the current system configuration of the switch, use the system snapshot command. To re-activate the configuration file later, use the flash config command.
Chapter 17 Managing System Commands Rebooting the module or switch It is highly recommended that you use the system reboot command to reboot a module in the M770 ATM Switch or the entire switch, instead of using the reset button. This is because the system reboot command first flushes any outstanding configuration updates to the non-volatile memory, whereas pressing the reset button may cause configuration information to be lost.
Chapter 17 Managing System Commands Manually changing the date or time on an Avaya M770 ATM Switch You can manually change the date or time on the switch. You do not have to enter both the date and time, only the parameter that you wish to change. Note that the date and time will be reset, when you reboot the switch. To change the date or time on a switch, use the system time set command.
Chapter 17 Managing System Commands Using Terminal Commands These commands allow you to configure how the Avaya M770 ATM Switch displays output on the terminal. Viewing the pager status The pager is a facility that enables you to view the information that the M770 ATM Switch outputs to the screen, a number of lines at a time. By default, the pager is enabled. To display the pager status, use the terminal pager command.
Chapter 17 Managing System Commands Setting the number of lines To set the number of lines, use the terminal lines command. Command: Example: Parameter: M15-155s8:/>terminal lines M15-155s8:/>terminal lines 48 The number of lines to be displayed on the terminal. Viewing the terminal width By default, the terminal width is set to 79. To display the current terminal width, use the terminal width command.
Chapter 17 Managing System Commands Setting the linewrap To set the linewrap, use the terminal linewrap command. Command: M15-155s8:/>terminal linewrap {none | pager | terminal} Example: M15-155s8:/>terminal linewrap pager Parameter: none The line wrapping is carried out by the terminal. The M770 ATM Switch will not try to calculate how many lines have actually been used on the terminal. In fact, it will assume that no wrapping has occurred when performing pager functions.

Chapter 18 Managing Events This chapter describes how to use the command-line interface to set and display event priority levels that occur on an Avaya M770 ATM Switch. For information about how to access and use the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface, see Chapter 3, “How to Use the Command-line Interface”. Assigning an Event Priority Level All events in the Avaya M770 ATM Switch are assigned a priority level between 1 and 16, in order of severity.
Chapter 18 Managing Events To set the event logging priority level, use the event log command. Command: Parameters: M15-155s8:/>event log [ | all | none ] An event priority level is assigned, where events with the same priority or higher will be logged. all All events will be logged. This can cause the event log to fill up quickly. none No events will be logged.
Chapter 18 Managing Events Displaying logged events You can list the 100 most recent event messages that have been logged on the Avaya M770. The most recent event is displayed first. Note: This event log will not be saved when the M770 ATM Switch is restarted. To display any logged events, use the event show command. Command: Output: M15-155s8:/>event show 09:13:53 04 Jun 09:13:53 04 Jun 194.32.220.154 17:16:03 03 Jun closed 09:09:25 03 Jun 09:09:25 03 Jun 194.32.220.

Chapter 19 Upgrading Avaya M770 ATM Switch Software This chapter describes how to use the command-line interface to upgrade the software on a module. For information about how to access and use the Avaya M770 ATM Switch command-line interface, see Chapter 3, “How to Use the Command-line Interface”. Managing Switch Software The M770 ATM Switch is designed as a software-upgradable product. Therefore, you can expand the functionality of the switch by downloading new microcode.
Chapter 19 Upgrading Avaya M770 ATM Switch Software Upgrading Software via TFTP from the Command Line Interface (CLI) To download files to the ATM Module via TFTP use the procedure outlined below. This example explains how to download version 2.0 software. 1 2 Before downloading a new software version, it is recommended to take a snapshot of your current module configuration. If it is needed to revert to a previous version, it is best to use the configuration that was used with that version.
Chapter 19 3 4 Upgrading Avaya M770 ATM Switch Software In order to download via TFTP, the remote file server must be accessible from the ELAN to which the management LEC belongs or from the M-SPV/ M-SPX/ M-SPS Ethernet Sideband port. To verify this connectivity you should ping from the file server to the IP of the LEC or to the IP of the M-SPV/ M-SPX/ MSPS. To download a software image over TFTP, use the system download tftp command.
Chapter 19 Upgrading Avaya M770 ATM Switch Software Downgrading the Main Software Version via TFTP from the CLI When returning to a previous Main S/W version, it is recommended to use the configuration file that was created using the previous version. If a snapshot was not taken with the previous version, a configuration file was automatically taken for you and stored in flash after downloading and rebooting the module with the latest Main S/W version. This file is called "oldconfiguration.X.Y.Z where X.
Chapter 19 Upgrading Avaya M770 ATM Switch Software Managing the Flash Filing system The following commands enable you to manage the flash memory. Viewing the contents of the flash memory You can view all files that are held in flash memory. A maximum of 15 files can be saved in flash memory. For each file in the directory the following information is displayed: • The type of file. • The size of each file in bytes. • The name of the file.
Chapter 19 Upgrading Avaya M770 ATM Switch Software Changing the main image To change the main image that the M770 ATM Switch will next run, use the flash default command. Command: M15-155s8:/>flash default Example M15-155s8:/>flash default m770ATM.1.2.0 Parameter: The name of the image that the M770 ATM Switch will next run. Note: This command checks the integrity of the selected image therefore it may take a few seconds for the cursor to return.
Chapter 19 Upgrading Avaya M770 ATM Switch Software Activating a configuration file You can restore an old configuration file stored in the flash directory that was generated with the system snapshot command. To activate a configuration file, use the flash config command.
Chapter 19 Upgrading Avaya M770 ATM Switch Software Deleting a file from the flash memory bank To delete a file from the flash memory bank, use the flash delete command. You will be asked to confirm the deletion. Command: M15-155s8:/>flash delete Example M15-155s8:/>flash delete m770ATM Parameter: The name of the file you wish to delete from the flash directory. Note: Once a file is deleted it cannot be recovered. The file must be downloaded again.
Chapter 20 Signaling Security (Access Control) Commands This part lists and describes the CLI commands of the Avaya M770 ATM switch's Signaling Security (Access Control) feature. The purpose of the Signaling Security feature is to filter out calls during the setup phase at the signaling level. The filtering is based on the source/destination ATM addresses present in the call setup.
Chapter 20 Signaling Security (Access Control) Commands Note: Once signaling security is enabled, the default behavior is to reject calls. Note: Any Signaling Security configuration also has an effect on existing calls, i.e. when setting up a security configuration, you should be aware that any existing call that would not have been accepted once the configuration is set up will be torn down. All Signaling Security related commands are located under /vport/sig/ sigsecurity> CLI directory.
Chapter 20 Signaling Security (Access Control) Commands Signaling Security State Managing Signaling Security State The entire switch's signaling security can be set to Enabled or Disabled mode. When the switch is in the Disabled mode all configured security parameters have no effect and calls are never rejected by the Signaling Security application. The commands for managing the switch's security state are available only in the Master Agent (MA) module.
Chapter 20 Signaling Security (Access Control) Commands Signaling Security Templates Creating a template Signaling Security templates define rules for calls screening based on the call's source/destination addresses. A template holds the following information: 1 Name of template - up to 20 characters template name. 2 Source NSAP/Mask - A specific NSAP address or an address mask. 3 Destination NSAP/Mask - A specific NSAP address or an address mask. 4 The rule - deny or permit.
Chapter 20 Signaling Security (Access Control) Commands Displaying configured templates Command: Output: M15-155s8:/>vport sig sigsecurity template show Template name: Action: Source NSAP/MASK: Destination NSAP/MASK: accept-all permit * * ----------------------------Template name: Action: Source NSAP/MASK: Destination NSAP/MASK: block-r&d deny 39.03.00.00.00/* * ----------------------------Template name: Action: Source NSAP/MASK: Destination NSAP/MASK: reject-1 deny 39.30.
Chapter 20 Signaling Security (Access Control) Commands Signaling Security Filters A signaling security filter is the assignment of a template to a vport for specific direction (incoming/outgoing) with a specific priority. Up to 16 filters can be created for a vport-direction coupling. Filter priority – a number in the range 1..16 where 1 represents the highest priority and 16 the lowest. The filters priority defines the order of the filters, i.e.
Chapter 20 Signaling Security (Access Control) Commands Filter’s state A filter may be in one of two states: ON or OFF. When a filter is in the OFF state it is ignored when testing a call setup and has no effect.: Command: M15-155s8:/> vport sig sigsecurity filter disable or: M15-155s8:/> vport sig sigsecurity filter enable Example: M15-155s8:/> vport sig sigsecurity filter disable 9.1.
Chapter 20 Signaling Security (Access Control) Commands Virtual Port’s Security Mode Virtual port’s security mode A vport can be either in a secured mode or unsecured mode. When a vport is in an unsecured mode no access control is applied to call setups passing through it. When a vport is secured every call setup passing through it is tested in terms of access control.
Chapter 20 Signaling Security (Access Control) Commands Signaling Security Event Log and Traps The Signaling Security feature keeps track of access control violation attempts. Every time a call setup is being rejected due to access control violation an event is logged. Up to 100 most recent events are logged (i.e. if the log is full and a call is being rejected an event will be logged and the oldest event will be removed). Note: Access control violation events are not saved in a non-volatile memory.
Chapter 20 Signaling Security (Access Control) Commands Clearing the event log Command: 258 M15-155s8:/> vport sig sigsecurity event clear Avaya M770 ATM Switch User’s Guide
Chapter 21 Command Line Interface Scripts This chapter describes how to create and to run Command Line Interface (CLI) scripts. For common information related to the CLI see Chapter 3, “How to Use the Command-line Interface”. What CLI Scripts Are Until version 2.1 of the Avaya M770 ATM Switch, there were several ways to access the Command-line interface of the M770 ATM Switch.
Chapter 21 Command Line Interface Scripts Structure of the CLI Script File A CLI script consists of two parts: the Script File Header and the Command List. The Script File Header must be located at the beginning of the file. It consists of a set of strings of pre-defined format and contents. The purpose of the Script File Header is to identify the file as a CLI Script file and to specify the Script File name in the Flash File System at the file download.
Chapter 21 Command Line Interface Scripts CLI Script File Downloading and Maintenance. A CLI Script File may be downloaded in the same manner as any other type of file, like executable or configuration file, using system download tftp command (please refer to “Downloading over TFTP” on page 227). Note that during download the Script File Header is converted into internal representation.
Chapter 21 Command Line Interface Scripts The destination of the output of the executed commands contained in the script file. If “log” specified, the output will be stored in the script log. The script log may be viewed later using “script log show” command (see below). Otherwise, if “console” specified, the script output will be redirected to that terminal, from which the script was started, i.e. serial terminal or Telnet window. If neither specified, “log” is used by default.
Chapter 21 Command Line Interface Scripts Script Execution Log When script output was directed into a log, use the script log show command to observe results of the script's commands running. Command: Output: M15-155s8:/> script log show If the script file execution finished, this command will print results of each command executed If no output was produced or the log was cleared (see below), the following message will appear: Log is empty.
Chapter 21 Command Line Interface Scripts On the Master Agent module the script run command has an additional optional parameter, which specifies the set of modules that are required to run the same script. Command: M15-155s8:/> script run [log|console] [delay=] [|all] Parameters:
