Configuring OAP modules The H3C Open Application Architecture (OAA) provides an open interface for third-party vendors to develop value-added applications (such as firewall and IPS) and integrate the applications into H3C products. H3C has developed some application-specific modules called "Open Application Platform (OAP) module."...
Assign an IP address to the management Ethernet port of the OAP module, and make sure the SSH client (the H3C device or a PC that has the SSH client software installed) and the management Ethernet port can reach each other.
Task Command • In standalone mode: oap connect slot slot-number Switch to the CLI of the OAP module from the device. • In IRF mode: oap connect chassis chassis-number slot slot-number Using the oap connect command is the same as logging in to the CLI of the OAP module through the AUX port.
Configuring ACFP The following matrix shows the ACFP feature and router compatibility: SR6604-X/SR6608-X/SR6 SR6602 SR6602-X SR6604/SR6608/SR6616 616-X Yes when RPE-X1 and RSE-X1 MPUs are used and no when MCP MPUs Yes. are used. Overview The Application Control Forwarding Protocol (ACFP) is designed based on the OAA architecture and operates in the server/client model (see Figure 1).
ACFP traffic management ACFP collaboration provides a mechanism that enables the ACFP client to manage the traffic on the ACFP server by implementing the following functions: • Mirroring and redirecting the traffic on the ACFP server to the ACFP client. Permitting/denying the traffic from the ACFP server.

FlowID-context (carrying the preamble Flow ID as the context ID) VLANID-context (carrying VLAN ID as the context ID) NOTE: SR6600 routers support only VLANID-context. ACFP server information indicates the collaboration capabilities of an ACFP server. ACFP clients can access this information through a collaboration protocol or collaboration MIB.

Trap message Level Expiration period of ACFP collaboration policy timed out Notifications The generated trap messages are sent to the information center of the device. With the parameters for the information center set, the output rules for traps (that is, whether the traps are allowed to be output and the output destinations) are decided.

Set the value of the node hh3cAcfpRuleRowStatus to 4 to create an ACFP rule, and assign index 1.2.2 to the rule. Set the value of the node hh3cAcfpRuleAction to 2 to specify the deny action. Set the value of the node hh3cAcfpRuleSrcIP to 192.168.1.2 and set the value of the node hh3cAcfpRuleSrcIPMask to 0.0.0.255 to match packets from 192.168.1.2/24.
Overview H3C ACFP Client and Server Exchange Information (ACSEI) provides a method for exchanging information between an ACFP server and its ACFP clients. As a supporting protocol for ACFP collaboration, ACSEI makes sure an ACFP server can cooperate with its ACFP clients to provide services.
ACSEI timers An ACSEI server uses two timers, which can be set at the CLI: • Clock synchronization timer—Used to periodically trigger the ACSEI server to send clock synchronization advertisements to the ACSEI clients. Client monitoring timer—Used to periodically trigger the ACSEI server to send monitoring requests •...
