Configuring the Switch 2.4 Switch Installation and Setup CONFIGURING THE SWITCH Initial configuration of your SmartCell 6A000 switch consists of setting the name, Ethernet IP address, and subnet mask. Once these tasks are complete done, the switch can be reached through your Ethernet network for additional configuration and administration.
Switch Installation and Setup Configuring the Switch Plug the other end of the UTP cable into the SmartCell 6A000 female RJ-45 jack labeled Terminal, located on the front panel (see Figure 2-5). Connect the switch to your network by plugging a UTP cable into the SmartCell 6A000 female RJ-45 jack labeled Ethernet, located at the lower right of the switch's front panel (see Figure 2-5).
Using the Console Switch Installation and Setup Next, the switch prompts for the information necessary to make the switch accessible through your Ethernet network Switch name IP address Subnet mask After you enter these parameters and reboot the switch, log off the local console connection. Perform additional configuration steps over your network using a telnet connection. Only one console connection is allowed at any time.
Switch Installation and Setup Using the Console modify (alias = set): Change the values that currently define a switch-attribute. start: Start a process on the switch; for example, start the LAN Emulation Configuration Server. restart: flush: Restart a process on the switch; for example, restart a client. Remove assigned values; for example, flush a route table. Entering parameters at the command line is optional. If a command requires parameter values, it prompts you for them.
Using the Console Switch Installation and Setup As with the show command, each prompt provides you with a default. For example SmartCell ZX # add laneclient ClientNumber(3) : accept the default LanName(ELAN003) : My-elan call the ELAN something other than the default name ServerType(LECS) : ServerAddress() : 39:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:14:41:80:00:20:d4:14:41:80:01 IPAddress() : 122.44.212.17 NetMask(255.0.0.0) : 255.255.255.
3 IP OVER ATM AND LANE This chapter explains how to set up a VLAN using classical IP over ATM and how to create an emulated LAN. After reading this chapter, you will be able to use your SmartCell 6A000 switch to • • Create an IP over ATM VLAN Create an emulated Ethernet LAN using LAN emulation (LANE) 3.1 CREATING AN IP OVER ATM VLAN This section describes how to implement IP over ATM on your SmartCell 6A000 switch.
Note End nodes do not need to be physically attached to the switch that contains the ARP server. For example, an end station is connected to a SmartCell 6A000 switch that is connected through an IISP route to the switch containing the ARP server.
• • 5A:01:01:01 = IP address 90.1.1.1 in hexadecimal 00 = trailing zeros byte 3.2 CREATING AN EMULATED LAN This section describes the steps for implementing an Ethernet or Token Ring Emulated LAN (ELAN) on your SmartCell 6A000 switch. The following assumptions are made: • • The switch will contain a client on the ELAN. • All end nodes (computers, edge devices, and so on) support the Well Known LECS Address or can obtain the address of the LECS using ILMI.
2. Create an ELAN on your switch by executing the add elan command. The following is an example: SmartCell ZX # add elan ELANNumber(0) : 1 use 1 instead of the default, (0) ELANName(ELAN000) : Marketing ELAN is named Marketing instead of the default, (ELAN000) ConnectMethod(SVC): ELANType(802.3) < The default (Ethernet) is used Multipoint(YES) : MTU(1516) : Distribute(PROXY) : SmartCell ZX # 3. Create a client for the switch on the ELAN.
6. Configure the ATM interface or adapter for all end nodes and edge devices. Typically, configuration consists of specifying LAN Emulation as the protocol, assigning the device an IP address that corresponds to the subnet of the switch's client, and indicating that you want the device to use the Well Known LECS Address or the ILMI acquired LECS address as the address for the LECS. 7.
3.2.2 ELANs Across Multiple Switches ELANs can exist within a single switch or they can span multiple switches through IISP routes. When an ELAN spans multiple switches, it's important that all switches within the group use the same LECS. The general rule is "Within an administration domain (a group of switches with related ELANs), there should be exactly one LECS." To assure that there is only one LECS, you can take one of the following actions: 1.
4 SWITCH ADMINISTRATION This chapter contains software and hardware procedures that you might need to perform on your SmartCell 6A000 switch. These procedures include • • • • Backing up and restoring switch configuration Upgrading switch operating software Creating routes and connecting switches Using switch logs and alarms 4.
Upgrading Operating Software Switch Administration The switch stores the IP address of the TFTP server, the path, and the backup file name. The next time you enter the or restore commands, these values are presented as the default IP address and path. For example, when you enter the restore command, the following display appears: backup SmartCell ZX# restore switch ServerIP(90.1.1.100) : Path(/back_dir/config-1) : SmartCell ZX # Backup file is valid.
Switch Administration 4.2.1 Setting Up Routes Unsuccessful Update If the update firmware command fails, DO NOT turn off or attempt to reboot the SmartCell 6A000 switch. In its current state, the operating software normally stored in flash RAM is erased. The switch is still functioning only because it is running the image of the operating software that resides in volatile system memory. If possible, determine why the update • • • • firmware command failed.
Setting Up Routes 4.3.1 Switch Administration IISP Routing IISP routing connects two or more switches (or other devices). Through SVCs, IISP routes create user-transparent links over which IP over ATM and LANE members can operate with each other and their respective support servers (ARP server, LECS, LES, and so on). For example, if a VLAN spans two or more switches, all nodes in the VLAN can communicate with the ARP server and with each other if the switches are connected using IISP routes.
Switch Administration Setting Up Routes From SW2, enter SmartCell ZX # show iisproute Entry# Port# Metric Len Address ============================================================================ 0 A4 1 104 39:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:14:41:80 SmartCell ZX # 5. If clients on both switch SW1 and SW2 are within the same subnet, you can test connectivity by pinging between clients. IISP Routes Among Multiple Switches Multiple IISP routes can be set up over a single physical link.

Switch Administration Setting Up Routes For example, create a default IISP route from port B1.
Setting Up Routes Switch Administration IISP routes between A, B, and C can be defined by 11:22: + group identifier byte Collectively, groups A, B, and C represent the super-group "A-B-C." Any group from outside A-B-C can define a route to A-B-C by using just 11:22.
Switch Administration Setting Up Routes IISP Metrics and Load Sharing You can assign a metric value to each IISP route. The metric "weights" one route against another. The IISP metric specifies which of two or more routes is used the most for setting up calls. Counters are set up for each route that equal the route's metric. These counters are decremented as calls are set up through the routes.
Setting Up Routes Switch Administration To see whether the static uniroute has been added, list the routes using the show uniroute command. Note 4.3.3 Some devices require ILMI to be disabled for UNI routes to work. Use the set ilmiadminstatus command to disable ILMI on the SmartCell 6A000 switch on a per-port basis. IP Routing The SmartCell 6A000 switch provides limited IP routing.
Switch Administration Logs and Alarms To see the route, enter the show route command on SW2 SmartCell ZX # show route ROUTE NET TABLE destination gateway flags Refcnt Use Interface -----------------------------------------------------------------------0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 1 0 0 zn0 90.1.1.0 90.1.1.33 1 0 1688 zn1 128.205.99.0 90.1.1.
Logs and Alarms 4.4.1 Switch Administration Log Message System The software modules and submodules of the SmartCell 6A000 switch automatically generate log messages. These messages are stored in the log message buffer, residing in system memory. Messages are conditionally forwarded from the log message buffer to two other buffers: the log trace buffer and the alarm message buffer. You can view log messages directly from the log message buffer.

Setting Up PVC Connections 4.5.1 Switch Administration Point-to-Point PVCs The procedure for setting up a PVC between two end nodes through the SmartCell 6A000 consists of specifying the ports and the virtual path and virtual channel identifiers (VPI and VCI). 1. Use add pvc to create the PVC; specify the ports through which the connection is established and the VPI/VCI pair to use with each port.
Switch Administration 3. Use add ipatmpvc Setting Up PVC Connections to associate the end node's IP address with the PVC. SmartCell ZX # add ipatmpvc ClientNumber(0) DestinationIP() DestinationVPI(0) DestinationVCI(33) SmartCell ZX # : 2
Setting Up PVC Connections 3. Use add pvc Switch Administration to successively create point-to-multipoint PVCs for ports B2, B3, and C1.

Switch Administration Setting Up PVC Connections For example, change VCCMask indexed combination zero (0) from VPI = 0 bits and VCI = 12 bits to VPI = 3 bits and VCI = 9 bits. 1. Use set vccmask to change the VPI/VCI values to 3/9. SmartCell ZX # set vccmask MaskIndex(0) VPIShift(0) VCIShift(12) SmartCell ZX # 2. Use the show vccmask :
Traffic Management Note 4.6 Switch Administration Do not change the VCC Mask for the CPU port (B4). TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT This section describes how the SmartCell 6A000 ATM switch manages bandwidth and congestion. It briefly describes console commands that affect how the switch manages traffic. This section also provides guidelines for setting some traffic control parameters. For information on troubleshooting congestion problems, see Chapter 5, "Troubleshooting.
Switch Administration Traffic Management SmartCell 6A000 user data cells are classified according to the state of a cell loss priority (CLP) bit in the header of each cell. A CLP 1 cell has a lower priority than a CLP 0 cell, and is discarded first. Source traffic descriptors can specify CLP 0 cell traffic, CLP 1 cell traffic, or the aggregate CLP 0+1 traffic. Use the trafficdescriptor commands to view, create, and delete traffic descriptors.
Traffic Management Switch Administration Each traffic descriptor is identified by a unique index number. Use the index number to specify which traffic descriptor to use when setting up a PVC. For example, the add pvc command prompts you for the traffic descriptor index.
Switch Administration Traffic Management By default, all ports on the SmartCell 6A000 are set for liberal Call Admission Control. Use the command to view the current CAC policies used by each port.
Traffic Management For example, enter the Switch Administration show porttrafficcongestion command to view current buffer utilization.

5 TROUBLESHOOTING This chapter provides basic troubleshooting for diagnosing and fixing problems with VLANs, emulated LANs, and ATM traffic congestion. Note 5.1 To turn off most of the error message display on the console screen, enter the set logprint off command. TROUBLESHOOTING IP OVER ATM If you have configured an IP over ATM VLAN, but your network applications are not working. Use these questions and tests to help determine the cause of the problem. 1.
Troubleshooting LAN Emulation Troubleshooting 4. Check ILMI, UNI routes, and PVCs (if applicable). • If using SVCs, use show uniroute to check whether static UNI routes are correct and whether dynamic UNI routes are established and correct. If dynamic routes are incorrect or missing, try creating static routes instead. • If using PVCs, use show correct ports. pvc • If using PVCs, use show end node IP addresses. ipatmpvc 5.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Congestion 5. Check whether BUS is connected. • Use show busclient to check whether devices are registered with the BUS. If clients are registered, check end node configuration. If not registered, check MP signaling. • Use set • to turn off MP signaling on a per-ELAN basis. Do devices begin to register with the LES and BUS once MP signaling is turned off? Check IISP routes to the switch containing the LES and BUS. 6.
Troubleshooting Congestion Troubleshooting 4. Enter the show mostly UBR? cacstats command for each port. Is the allocated bandwidth small and is the traffic • • If no, go back to step 4 and check next port. 5. Enter the • • If no, go back to step 4. 6. Reduce the UBR queue Max threshold by a small amount, then wait a few minutes. 7. Enter the show portstats command, and take the default of all.
Troubleshooting 8. Is the number of cells received increasing? • • If no, go to step 6. 9. Convert Allocated Bandwidth (kb/s) to cells (48 bytes). Troubleshooting Congestion If yes, continue. Bandwidth in cells = (1024 X Allocated Bandwidth) / 384 where 384 = 48 cells X 8 10. Is the Allocated Bandwidth less than the Cell Reception Rate? • • If no, go to step 6. If yes, this VC is misbehaving. Take appropriate action, for example, terminate the VC.

The entire ZeitNet Cabletron SmartCell 6A000 MIB subtree looks like Figure B-3. Label from the ZeitNet root to this point is 1.3.6.1.4.1.1295 znManagedObjects 2 znIpATM (1295.2.200) znCommon (1295.2.
SmartCell 6A000 and SNMP B.3 A Client for SNMP Management A CLIENT FOR SNMP MANAGEMENT Your SmartCell 6A000 must have a connection to the NMS before it can be managed. The default connection between the SmartCell 6A000 and the NMS is the SmartCell 6A000 Ethernet interface. An NMS can also manage the SmartCell 6A000 through one of its ATM ports if the SmartCell 6A000 has a client connection into a VLAN or emulated LAN.
