Page 176: Enabling Or Disabling Ports
Chapter 9: Port Parameters Enabling or Disabling Ports Disabling ports turns off their receivers and transmitters so that they cannot forward traffic. You might disable unused ports on the switch to protect them from unauthorized use, or if there is a problem with a cable or a network device.
Page 177: Enabling Or Disabling Backpressure
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Enabling or Disabling Backpressure Ports use backpressure during periods of packet congestion, to prevent packet overruns. They use it to stop their link partners from sending any further packets to enable them to process the packets already in their buffers.
Page 178: Enabling Or Disabling Flow Control
Chapter 9: Port Parameters Enabling or Disabling Flow Control When a port that is operating in full-duplex mode needs to temporarily stop its local or remote counterpart from sending any further packets, it initiates flow control by sending what are known as pause packets. Pause packets instruct the link partner to stop sending packets to allow the sender of the packets time to process the packets already stored in its buffers.

Chapter 25: Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Snooping Overview IGMP snooping allows the switch to control the flow of multicast packets from its ports. It enables the switch to forward packets of multicast groups to only ports that have host nodes that want to join the multicast groups. IGMP is used by IPv4 routers to create lists of nodes that are members of multicast groups.
Page 469: Understanding Multicast Traffic Settings
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide improves switch performance and network security by restricting the flow of multicast packets to only those switch ports that are connected to host nodes. If the switch is not using IGMP snooping and receives multicast packets, it floods the packets out all its ports, except the port on which it received the packets.
Page 470: Host Node Topology
Chapter 25: Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Snooping Host Node Topology The switch has a host node topology setting. You use this setting to define whether there is more than one host node on each port on the switch. The switch refers to the topology to determine whether or not to continue transmitting multicast packets from ports that receive leave requests or where host nodes time out due to inactivity.
Page 471: Enabling Igmp Snooping
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Enabling IGMP Snooping The command to enable IGMP Snooping on the switch is the IP IGMP SNOOPING command in the Global Configuration mode. After you enter the command, the switch begins to build its multicast table as queries from the multicast router and reports from the host nodes arrive on its ports.

Page 608: Overview
For example, a conflict could occur in an aggregate trunk of six links if the other 802.3ad-compliant device supported just four active links at one time. The AT-9000 Series switch would activate all six links, while the other device would activate only four ports. But by giving the other device the higher priority, the conflict is avoided because the AT-9000 Series switch would use only four active links.
Page 609: Base Port
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Base Port The lowest numbered port in an aggregator is referred to as the base port. You cannot change the base port of an aggregator. You can neither delete it from an aggregator nor add any ports that are below it. For example, if an aggregator consists of ports 5 to 12, you cannot delete port 5 because it is the base port, and you are not allowed to add ports 1 to 4 to the aggregator.
Page 610 AT-9000 Series switch, you should assign the vendor’s device a higher system LACP priority than the switch. If it is more than eight, assign the AT-9000 Series switch the higher priority. This will avoid a possible conflict between the devices if some ports are placed in the standby mode when the devices create the trunk.
Page 611: Creating New Aggregators
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Creating New Aggregators To create a new aggregator, move to the Port Interface mode of the aggregator’s member ports and issue the CHANNEL-GROUP command, which has this format: id_number channel-group The ID_NUMBER parameter has a range of 1 to 32. Each aggregator must be assigned a unique ID number.
Page 612: Setting The Load Distribution Method
Chapter 40: Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) Setting the Load Distribution Method The load distribution method determines the manner in which the switch distributes the egress packets among the active ports of an aggregator. The packets can be distributed by source MAC or IP address, destination MAC or IP address, or by both source and destination addresses.

Page 636: Overview
Chapter 42: STP, RSTP and MSTP Protocols Overview The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) guard against the formation of loops in an Ethernet network topology. A topology has a loop when two or more nodes can transmit packets to each other over more than one data path.
Page 637: Bridge Priority And The Root Bridge
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Bridge Priority and the Root Bridge The first task that bridges perform when a spanning tree protocol is activated on a network is the selection of a root bridge. A root bridge distributes network topology information to the other network bridges and is used by the other bridges to determine if there are redundant paths in the network.
Page 638: Path Costs And Port Costs
Chapter 42: STP, RSTP and MSTP Protocols Path Costs and Port Costs After the root bridge has been selected, the bridges determine if the network contains redundant paths and, if one is found, select a preferred path while placing the redundant paths in a backup or blocking state. A bridge that has only one path between itself and the root bridge is referred to as the designated bridge.
Page 639: Port Priority
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Port Priority If two paths have the same port cost, the bridges must select a preferred path. In some instances this can involve the use of the port priority parameter. This parameter is used as a tie breaker when two paths have the same cost.
Page 640: Forwarding Delay And Topology Changes
Chapter 42: STP, RSTP and MSTP Protocols Forwarding Delay and Topology Changes If there is a change in the network topology due to a failure, removal, or addition of any active components, the active topology also changes. This may trigger a change in the state of some blocked ports. However, a change in a port state is not activated immediately.
Page 641: Hello Time And Bridge Protocol Data Units (Bpdu)
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Hello Time and Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDU) The bridges that are part of a spanning tree domain communicate with each other using a bridge broadcast frame that contains a special section devoted to carrying STP or RSTP information. This portion of the frame is referred to as the bridge protocol data unit (BPDU).
Page 642: Point-To-Point And Edge Ports
Chapter 42: STP, RSTP and MSTP Protocols Point-to-Point and Edge Ports Part of the task of configuring RSTP or MSTP is defining the port types on the switch. This relates to the devices connected to the ports. With the port types defined, RSTP or MSTP can reconfigure a network much quicker than STP when a change in network topology is detected.
Page 643: Figure 117: Edge Port
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Edge Port Figure 117. Edge Port A port can be both a point-to-point and an edge port at the same time. It operates in full-duplex and has no spanning tree devices connected to it. Figure 118 illustrates a port functioning as both a point-to-point and edge port.
Page 644: Mixed Stp And Rstp Networks
Chapter 42: STP, RSTP and MSTP Protocols Mixed STP and RSTP Networks RSTP IEEE 802.1w is fully compliant with STP IEEE 802.1d. A network can have both protocols. If both RSTP and STP are present in a network, they operate together to create a single spanning tree domain. Given this, if you decide to activate spanning tree on the switch, there is no reason not to use RSTP, even if the other switches are running STP.
Page 645: Spanning Tree And Vlans
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Spanning Tree and VLANs STP and RSTP support a single-instance spanning tree that encompasses all the ports on the switch. If the ports are divided into different VLANs, the spanning tree protocol crosses the VLAN boundaries. This point can pose a problem in networks that contain multiple VLANs that span different switches and that are connected with untagged ports.
Page 646: Rstp And Mstp Bpdu Guard
Chapter 42: STP, RSTP and MSTP Protocols RSTP and MSTP BPDU Guard This feature monitors the RSTP or MSTP edge ports on the switch for BPDU packets. Edge ports that receive BPDU packets are disabled by the switch. The benefit of this feature is that it prevents the use of edge ports by RSTP or MSTP devices.
Page 647 AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Here are the guidelines to this feature: BPDU guard is configured for each port and has only two possible  settings: enabled or disabled. The default setting is disabled. This feature is supported on the base ports of the switch and any ...
Page 648: Stp, Rstp, Mstp Loop Guard
Chapter 42: STP, RSTP and MSTP Protocols STP, RSTP, MSTP Loop Guard Although spanning tree is designed to detect and prevent the formation of loops in a network topology, it is possible in certain circumstances for the protocol to inadvertently create loops. This can happen in the unlikely situation where a link between two spanning tree devices remains active when there is an cessation of BPDUs because of a hardware or software problem.
Page 649: Figure 120: Loop Guard Example 1
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide If you configured the SNMP community strings on the switch, an SNMP trap is sent to your management workstations to notify you of the event. However, this event does not generate an entry in the switch’s log. This feature is supported on the base ports of the switch as well as on any fiber optic transceivers installed in the unit.

Chapter 42: STP, RSTP and MSTP Protocols Switch 2 Port 17 Switch 1 Stops transmitting BDPUs Root bridge Port 14 Transitions to the forwarding state from the blocking state Switch 3 Figure 121. Loop Guard Example 2 But if loop guard is enabled on port 14 on switch 3, the port, instead of changing to the forwarding state, stays in the blocking state, preventing the formation of the loop.
Page 651: Figure 123: Loop Guard Example 4
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide In the first example, the root bridge stops transmitting BPDUs. If switch 3 is not using loop guard, it continues to forward traffic on port 4. But since no BPDUs are received on the port, it assumes that the device connected to the port is not an RSTP device.

Page 717: Multiple Spanning Tree Instance (Msti)
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Multiple Spanning Tree Instance (MSTI) The individual spanning trees in MSTP are referred to as Multiple Spanning Tree Instances (MSTIs). An MSTI can span any number of AT- 9000 Switches. The switch can support up to 15 MSTIs at a time. To create an MSTI, you first assign it a number, referred to as the MSTI ID.

Page 720: Vlan And Msti Associations
Chapter 47: Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) VLAN and MSTI Associations Part of the task to configuring MSTP involves assigning VLANs to spanning tree instances. The mapping of VLANs to MSTIs is called associations. A VLAN, either port-based or tagged, can belong to only one instance at a time, but an instance can contain any number of VLANs.
Page 721: Ports In Multiple Mstis
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Ports in Multiple MSTIs A port can be a member of more than one MSTI at a time if it is a tagged member of one or more VLANs assigned to different MSTIs. In this circumstance, a port might be have to operate in different spanning tree states simultaneously, depending on the requirements of the MSTIs.

Internal Spanning Tree This instance has unique features and functions that make it different from (CIST) the MSTIs that you create yourself.
Page 726 Chapter 47: Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) An MSTP region can be considered as a virtual bridge. The implication is that other MSTP regions and STP and RSTP single-instance spanning trees cannot discern the topology or constitution of an MSTP region. The only bridge they are aware of is the regional root of the CIST instance.

Page 729: Associating Vlans To Mstis
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Associating VLANs to MSTIs Allied Telesis recommends that you assign all VLANs on a switch to an MSTI. You should not leave a VLAN assigned to just the CIST, including the Default_VLAN. This is to prevent the blocking of a port that should be in the forwarding state.
Page 730: Figure 133: Cist And Vlan Guideline - Example 2
Chapter 47: Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) Figure 133. CIST and VLAN Guideline - Example 2 When port 4 on switch B receives a BPDU, the switch notes the port sending the packet belongs only to CIST. Therefore, switch B uses CIST in determining whether a loop exists.
Page 731: Connecting Vlans Across Different Regions
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Connecting VLANs Across Different Regions Special consideration needs to be taken into account when you connect different MSTP regions or an MSTP region and a single-instance STP or RSTP region. Unless planned properly, VLAN fragmentation can occur between the VLANS of your network.
Page 732: Figure 135: Spanning Regions Without Blocking
Chapter 47: Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) There are several ways to address this issue. The first is to have only one MSTP region for each subnet in your network. Another approach is to group those VLANs that need to span regions into the same MSTI.
Page 733: Mstp Root Guard
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide MSTP Root Guard The Root Guard feature enforces the root bridge placement in a network. It ensures the port that you have configured with the Root Guard feature is a designated port.

Chapter 49: Port-based and Tagged VLANs Overview A VLAN is a group of ports that form a logical Ethernet segment on an Ethernet switch. The ports of a VLAN form an independent traffic domain in which the traffic generated by the nodes remains within the VLAN. VLANs let you segment your network through the switch’s management software so that you can group nodes with related functions into their own separate, logical LAN segments.
Page 763 AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Virtual LANs can also span more than one switch. This makes it possible to create VLANs of end nodes that are connected to switches located in different physical locations. The switch supports the following types of VLANs you can create yourself: Port-based VLANs ...
Page 764: Port-Based Vlan Overview
Chapter 49: Port-based and Tagged VLANs Port-based VLAN Overview As the “Overview” on page 762 explains, a VLAN consists of a group of ports that form an independent traffic domain on one or more Ethernet switches. Traffic generated by the end nodes remain within their respective VLANs and does not cross over to the end nodes of other VLANs unless there is an interconnection device, such as a router or Layer 3 switch.
Page 765: Port Vlan Identifier
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide For example, if you had a port-based VLAN named Marketing that spanned three switches, assign the Marketing VLAN on each switch the same VID. You can assign this number manually or allow the management software to do it automatically.

Page 770: Tagged Vlan Overview
Chapter 49: Port-based and Tagged VLANs Tagged VLAN Overview The second type of VLAN is the tagged VLAN. VLAN membership in a tagged VLAN is determined by information within the frames that are received on a port. This differs from a port-based VLAN, where the PVIDs assigned to the ports determine VLAN membership.

Page 776: Adding Untagged Ports To Vlans
Chapter 49: Port-based and Tagged VLANs Adding Untagged Ports to VLANs To add a port to a VLAN as an untagged port, it may be necessary to first set its mode with the SWITCHPORT MODE ACCESS command in the Port Interface mode. Once a port’s mode is set to access, it functions as an untagged port.
Page 777 AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide This example designates ports 11 to 18 as untagged ports of a VLAN with the VID 4. The SWITCHPORT MODE ACCESS command is omitted because the example assumes the ports are already designated as untagged ports: awplus>...
Page 778: Adding Tagged Ports To Vlans
Chapter 49: Port-based and Tagged VLANs Adding Tagged Ports to VLANs There are three steps to adding ports as tagged ports to VLANs: 1. Set the mode of the ports to trunk so that they function as tagged ports. This is performed with the SWITCHPORT MODE TRUNK command.

Page 806: Overview
Chapter 51: GARP VLAN Registration Protocol Overview The GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) allows network devices to share VLAN information and to use the information to modify existing VLANs or create new VLANs, automatically. This makes it easier to manage VLANs that span more than one switch. Without GVRP, you have to manually configure your switches to ensure that the various parts of the VLANs can communicate with each other across the different switches.
Page 807: Figure 144: Gvrp Example
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Figure 144 provides an example of how GVRP works. Port 1 Switch #1 Switch #3 Port 4 Static VLAN Static VLAN Sales VID 11 Sales VID 11 Port 3 Switch #2 Port 2 Figure 144. GVRP Example The example consists of three switches.
Page 808 Chapter 51: GARP VLAN Registration Protocol Without GVRP, you would have to manually add the Sales VLAN to switch #2. But with GVRP, the VLAN is added automatically. Here is how GVRP would resolve the problem in the example. 1. Port 1 on switch #1 sends to port 2 on switch #2 a PDU that contains the VIDs of all the VLANs on the switch, including VID 11 for the Sales VLAN.
Page 809: Guidelines
VLANs and static port assignments. The default port settings on the switch for GVRP are active,  meaning that the ports participate in GVRP. Allied Telesis recommends disabling GVRP on those ports that are connected to GVRP-inactive devices, meaning devices that do not feature GVRP.
Page 810: Gvrp And Network Security
Chapter 51: GARP VLAN Registration Protocol GVRP and Network Security GVRP should be used with caution because it can expose your network to unauthorized access. If a network intruder were to connect to a switch port running GVRP and transmit a bogus GVRP PDU containing VIDs of restricted VLANs, GVRP would make the port a member of the VLANs, giving the intruder access to restricted areas of your network.
Page 811: Gvrp-Inactive Intermediate Switches
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide GVRP-inactive Intermediate Switches If two GVRP-active devices are separated by a GVRP-inactive switch, the GVRP-active devices may not be able to share VLAN information. There are two issues involved. The first is whether the intermediate switch forwards the GVRP PDUs that it receives from the GVRP-active switches.
Page 812: Enabling Gvrp On The Switch
Chapter 51: GARP VLAN Registration Protocol Enabling GVRP on the Switch The command for enabling GVRP on the switch is found in the Global Configuration mode. It is the GVRP ENABLE command. After the command is entered, the switch immediately begins to transmit PDUs from those ports where GVRP is enabled and to learn dynamic GVRP VLANs.
Page 813: Enabling Gip On The Switch
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Enabling GIP on the Switch The GARP Information Propagation (GIP) component can be enabled separately from GVRP on the switch. GIP must be enabled if the switch is using GVRP. The command for activating GIP is the GVRP APPLICANT STATE ACTIVE command in the Global Configuration mode.
Page 814: Enabling Gvrp On The Ports
Chapter 51: GARP VLAN Registration Protocol Enabling GVRP on the Ports To activate GVRP on the ports so that they transmit GVRP PDUs, use the GVRP REGISTRATION NORMAL command in the Port Interface mode. Because the default setting for GVRP on the ports is enabled, you should only need to use this command if you want to enable GVRP after disabling it on a port.
Page 815: Setting The Gvrp Timers
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Setting the GVRP Timers The switch has a Join Timer, a Leave Timer, and a Leave All Timer. You should not change the timers unless you understand their functions. (Refer to the IEEE 802.1p standard for the definitions.) The timers have to be set the same on all GARP-active network devices, and the Join Timer and Leave Timer have to be set according to the following equation: Join Timer <= (2 x (Leave Timer))
Page 816: Disabling Gvrp Timers On The Switch
Chapter 51: GARP VLAN Registration Protocol Disabling GVRP Timers on the Switch To disable GVRP timer configurations, use the NO GVRP TIMER commands in the Global Configuration mode.

Page 896: Overview
Chapter 58: VLAN Stacking Overview VLAN stacking is a way to label tagged and untagged packets with new 802.1Q headers. In the case of tagged packets, which already contain 802.1Q headers, VLAN stacking adds the new headers so that they coexist with the native headers in the packets.
Page 897: Figure 151: Metro Provider 802.1Q Header In Tagged Packets
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide when they exit the network. The inner VID is native to the packets, but is ignored by the metro provider network. Figure 151. Metro Provider 802.1Q Header in Tagged Packets VLAN stacking may also be used with untagged ports, which do not contain 802.1Q headers.
Page 898: Components
Chapter 58: VLAN Stacking Components There are four components to VLAN stacking: VLAN  Customer ports  Provider port  EtherType/Length value  VLAN The boundary between the customer’s network and the metro provider’s network is marked by a VLAN. In cases where the switch is connected to more than one customer, there has to be a different VLAN for each customer.
Page 899: Vlan Stacking Process
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide VLAN Stacking Process Figure 153 illustrates the VLAN stacking process. Figure 153. VLAN Stacking Process The actions are described in Table 82. Table 82. VLAN Stacking Process Step Action A tagged or an untagged packet from the customer network is received by the customer port on switch A.
Page 900: Example Of Vlan Stacking
Chapter 58: VLAN Stacking Example of VLAN Stacking Here is an example of how to configure VLAN stacking. In the example, the customer’s network is connected to ports 5 and 6 on the switch, and the provider’s network is connected to port 7. Thus, ports 5 and 6 will be designated as customer ports and port 7 as the provider port.
Page 901 AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide The next steps add the customer ports to the VLAN. Enter the Global Configuration awplus# configure terminal mode. Enter the Port Interface mode for awplus(config)# interface port1.0.5-port1.0.6 ports 5 and 6. Use the SWITCHPORT MODE awplus(config-if)# switchport mode access ACCESS command to designate the ports as untagged ports.

Page 938: Overview
Chapter 62: 802.1x Port-based Network Access Control Overview This chapter explains 802.1x port-based network access control. This port security feature lets you control who can send traffic through and receive traffic from the individual switch ports. The switch does not allow an end node to send or receive traffic through a port until the user of the node has been authenticated by a RADIUS server.
Page 939: Authentication Process
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Authentication Process Below is a brief overview of the authentication process that occurs between a supplicant, authenticator, and authentication server. For further details, refer to the IEEE 802.1x standard. Either the authenticator (that is, a switch port) or the supplicant ...
Page 940: Port Roles
Note There is also a supplicant role in 802.1x port-based network access control. However, the AT-9000 Series switches do not support that role. You can assign the ports to the none or authenticator role, but not the supplicant role.
Page 941: Authentication Methods For Authenticator Ports
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Authentication Methods for Authenticator Ports Authenticator ports support two authentication methods: 802.1x username and password combination  This authentication mode requires that the supplicants be assigned unique username and password combinations or digital certificates on the RADIUS server.
Page 942: Operational Settings For Authenticator Ports
Chapter 62: 802.1x Port-based Network Access Control Operational Settings for Authenticator Ports An authenticator port can have one of three possible operational settings: Auto - Activates port-based authentication. The port begins in the  unauthorized state, forwarding only EAPOL frames and discarding all other traffic.
Page 943: Operating Modes For Authenticator Ports
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide Operating Modes for Authenticator Ports Authenticator ports have three modes: Single-host mode  Multi-host mode  Multi-supplicant mode  Single-Host Mode An authenticator port set to the single-host mode permits only one supplicant to log on and forwards only the traffic of that supplicant. After one supplicant has logged on, the port discards packets from any other supplicant.
Page 944: Figure 161: Multi-Host Operating Mode
Chapter 62: 802.1x Port-based Network Access Control Note, however, that should the supplicant who performed the initial logon fail to periodically reauthenticate or log out, the authenticator port reverts to the unauthenticated state. It bars all further traffic to and from all the supplicants until the initial supplicant or another supplicant logs on.
Page 945: Multi-Supplicant Mode
AT-9000 Switch Command Line User’s Guide As mentioned earlier, should the supplicant who performed the initial logon fail to reauthenticate when necessary or log out, the port reverts to the unauthenticated state, blocking all traffic to and from all supplicants. Another supplicant must be authenticated in order for all remaining supplicants to continue to forward traffic through the port.
