Chapter 1 Features Overview The Enterasys Networks XP-2000 provides non-blocking, high-speed Layer-2 (switching), Layer-3 (routing), and Layer-4 (application) switching. This chapter provides a basic overview of the XP-2000 software and hardware feature set. • If you want to skip this information and install the XP-2000 now, see Chapter 2, Hardware Installation. • If you want to boot the XP-2000 software and perform basic configuration tasks now, see Chapter 3, Software Installation and Setup.
Specifications The following table lists the basic hardware and software specifications for the XP-2000. Table 1. Basic hardware and software specifications Feature Throughput Specification • 8.0-Gbps non-blocking switching fabric • 6.
Features 2000 operates within the layers that are not shaded. Notice that Layer-2 is divided into an LLC layer and a MAC layer. The XP-2000 operates at the MAC layer but not the LLC layer. Layer 7 Application Layer 6 Presentation Layer 5 Session Layer 4 TCP/UDP - application Layer 3 IP/IPX - routing Layer 2 LLC Layer 2 MAC -bridging Layer 1 Physical Interfaces TCP/UDP Services The following table lists some well known TCP/UDP services provided by the XP-2000. Table 2.
Features • Statistics • Management Bridging The XP-2000 provides the following types of high-speed bridging: • Address-based bridging – The XP-2000 performs this type of bridging by looking up the destination address in an L2 lookup table on the expansion module that receives the bridge packet from the network. The L2 lookup table indicates the exit port(s) for the bridged packet. If the packet is addressed to the XP-2000’s own MAC address, the packet is routed rather than bridged.
Features Routing The XP-2000 provides high-speed routing for the following protocols: • Internet Protocol (IP) – the protocol switching and routing devices use for moving traffic within the Internet and within many corporate intranets. • Internet Packet Exchange (IPX) – a protocol by Novell used in Netware products. Note: All other protocols that require routing must be tunneled using IP. By default, the XP-2000 uses one MAC address for all interfaces.
Features IPX Routing The XP-2000 supports the following IPX routing protocols: • IPX RIP – a version of the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) tailored for IPX • IPX SAP – the Service Advertisement Protocol, which allows hosts attached to an IPX network to reach printers, file servers, and other services By default, IPX routing is enabled on the XP-2000 when an IPX interface is created. Layer-4 Switching In addition to Layer-2 bridging and Layer-3 routing, the XP-2000 performs Layer-4 switching.
Features • Layer-3 flow filters (block IP or IPX traffic based on specific source-destination pairs) • Layer-4 application filters (block traffic based on UDP or TCP source and destination ports for IP or source and destination sockets for IPX) Quality of Service Although the XP-2000 supplies non-blocking high-speed throughput, you can configure the XP-2000 to apply Quality of Service (QoS) policies during peak periods to guarantee service to specific hosts, applications, and flows (source-destination
Hardware Overview • SNMP MIBs and traps – The XP-2000 supports SNMP v1 and many standard networking MIBs. You can access the XP-2000’s SNMP agent using Enterasys integration software for HP OpenView 5.x on Windows NT or Solaris 2.x, or Enterasys Spectrum on Solaris 2.x. Chapter 3, Software Installation and Setup, in this guide explains how to set up SNMP on the XP-2000. Hardware Overview This section describes the XP-2000’s hardware specifications.
Hardware Overview External Controls The XP-2000 has the following external controls.

Starting the Command Line Interface While the software is booting, the HBT (heartbeat) LED on the chassis flashes. When the software finishes booting, the HBT LED goes dark and the OK LED lights up, indicating that the XP-2000 software is online. As the software boots, the management console attached to the XP-2000’s DB-9 DCE port displays messages related to the phases of the boot sequence.
Starting the Command Line Interface When you are in Configure or Enable mode, use the exit command or press Ctrl+Z to exit to the previous access mode. Note: When you exit Configure mode, the CLI will ask you whether you want to activate the configuration commands you have issued. If you enter yes or y, the configuration commands you issued are placed into effect and the XP-2000’s configuration is changed accordingly.
Setting Basic System Information Setting Basic System Information Use the procedure in this section to set the following system information: • System time and date • System name • System location • Contact name (the person to contact regarding this XP-2000) Note: Some of the commands in this procedure accept a string value. String values can be up a maximum of 255 characters in length, including blank spaces.
Setting Basic System Information Here is an example: ssr(config)# system set name “xp-1” ssr(config)# system set location “Sunnyvale, CA” ssr(config)# system set contact “John Smith” 5. Use the interface add ip command to set the IP address and netmask for the en0 Ethernet interface, as shown in the following example: ssr(config)# interface add ip en0 address-netmask 10.50.11.22/16 Note: 6. The en0 interface is automatically created by the system and is reserved for the XP-2000’s management port.
Setting Up SNMP Community Strings 8. Enter yes or y to activate the changes. 9.
Setting Up SNMP Community Strings 2. Ensure that you are in Configure mode by entering the configure command in the CLI. 3. Use the following commands to add an SNMP community string and set a target for the traps. snmp set community privilege read snmp set target community Note: The target IP address must be locally attached to the XP-2000. You cannot specify a target that is connected to the XP-2000 by another router.
Setting Up SNMP Community Strings Here is an example of the commands and output for configuring SNMP and saving the changes. ssr-1# config ssr-1(config)# snmp set community public privilege read-only ssr-1(config)# snmp set target 10.50.11.12 community public ssr-1(config)# save active ssr-1(config)# exit ssr-1# snmp show all SNMP Agent status: enabled mode SNMP Last 2 Clients: 10.50.100.53 Mon May 14 10:31:27 2001 10.50.100.43 Mon May 14 10:31:22 2001 SNMP Chassis Identity: not configured.
Setting Up Passwords Remember to enter yes or y when the CLI asks you whether you want to overwrite the Startup configuration. Setting Up Passwords You can password protect CLI access to the XP-2000 by setting up passwords for login access and Enable access. Users who have a login password but not an Enable password can use only the commands available in User mode. Users with an Enable password can use the commands available in Enable and Configure modes as well as the commands in User mode.
Setting the DNS Domain Name and Address Here is an example of the commands in the previous steps: ssr-1(config)# system set password login demo ssr-1(config)# system set password enable demo ssr-1(config)# save active ssr-1# exit ssr-1# system show active-config Running system configuration: ! ! Last modified from Console on Mon May 14 12:12:19 2001 ! 1 : system set name “xp-1” 2 : system set location “Sunnyvale, CA” 3 : system set contact “John Smith” 4 : system set hashed-password login jNIssH c976b667e6
Setting the DNS Domain Name and Address 2. Use the following command to verify that the XP-2000 can reach the DNS server by pinging the server, as shown in the following example: ssr-1# ping 10.50.11.12 PING 10.50.11.12 (10.50.11.12): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 10.50.11.12: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0 ms --- 10.50.11.12 ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 0/0/0 ms 3.
Setting SYSLOG Parameters Here is an example of the commands above featuring the addition of two DNS server IP addresses: ssr-1# config ssr-1(config)# system set dns domain “mktg.company.com” ssr-1(config)# system set dns server “10.50.11.12 10.50.12.11" ssr-1(config)# save active 8. Enter the system show dns command to verify the new DNS settings, as shown in the following example: ssr-1# system show dns DNS domain: mktg.company.com, DNS server(s): 10.50.11.12 10.50.12.11 9.
Setting SYSLOG Parameters Use the following procedure to specify the SYSLOG server and the types of messages you want the CLI to log on the server. 1. Ensure that you are in Enable mode by entering the enable command in the CLI. 2. Use the following command to verify that the XP-2000 can reach the SYSLOG server by pinging the server: ping 3. Ensure that you are in Configure mode by entering the configure command in the CLI. 4.
Loading System Image Software 6. Enter the show command to show the commands you just entered. Because you have not activated these configuration changes yet, they are listed in the scratchpad section of the output. Here is an example: ssr-1(config)# show Running system configuration: ! ! Last modified from Console on Mon May 14 12:37:21 2001 ! 1 : interface add ip en0 address-netmask 10.50.11.22/16 ! 2 : system set dns server 10.50.11.12 3 : system set dns domain mktg.company.
Loading System Image Software 2. Copy the software upgrade you want to install onto a TFTP server that the XP-2000 can access. (Use the ping command to verify that the XP can reach the TFTP server.) 3. Use the following command to copy the software upgrade onto the internal flash chip in the XP-2000: system image add Here is an example: ssr-1# system image add 10.50.11.12 xp2000 Downloading image ’xp2000’ from host ’10.50.11.
Loading Boot PROM Software Loading Boot PROM Software The XP boots using the boot PROM software installed in the XP-2000’s internal memory. To upgrade the boot PROM software and boot using the upgraded image, use the following procedure. 1.
