Ethernet Port Configuration Ethernet Port Configuration Combo Port Configuration Introduction to Combo port A Combo port can operate as either an optical port or an electrical port. Inside the device there is only one forwarding port. For a Combo port, the electrical port and the corresponding optical port are TX-SFP multiplexed.
Page 39: Configuring An Auto-Negotiation Transmission Rate
Similarly, if you configure the transmission rate for an Ethernet port by using the speed command with the auto keyword specified, the transmission rate is determined through auto-negotiation too. For a Gigabit Ethernet port, you can specify the transmission rate by its auto-negotiation capacity. For details, refer to Configuring an Auto-negotiation Transmission Rate.
Page 40: Configuring Flow Control On An Ethernet Port
Figure 1-1 An application diagram of auto-negotiation transmission rate As shown in Figure 1-1, the network card transmission rate of the server group (Server 1, Server 2, and Server 3) is 1000 Mbps, and the transmission rate of GigabitEthernet 1/0/4, which provides access to the external network for the server group, is 1000 Mbps too.

3 and pin 6 are used for transmitting signals. To enable normal communication, you should connect the local transmit pins to the remote receive pins. Therefore, you should configure the MDI mode depending on the cable types. Normally, the auto mode is recommended. The other two modes are useful only when the device cannot determine the cable type.

Ethernet Link Aggregation Configuration When configuring Ethernet link aggregation, go to these sections for information you are interested in: Overview Ethernet Link Aggregation Configuration Task List Configuring an Aggregation Group Configuring an Aggregate Interface Configuring Load Sharing for Link Aggregation Groups Displaying and Maintaining Ethernet Link Aggregation Ethernet Link Aggregation Configuration Examples The extended LACP function is added in V05.02.00P19 on the 3Com Switch 4500G.
Page 52: Basic Concepts
Basic Concepts Aggregation group, member port, aggregate interface Link aggregation is implemented through link aggregation groups. An aggregation group is a group of Ethernet interfaces aggregated together. For each aggregation group, a logical interface, called an aggregate interface is created. To an upper layer entity that uses the link aggregation service, a link aggregation group looks like a single logical link and data traffic is transmitted through the aggregate interface.

Page 54 Table 1-2 Basic and extended LACP functions Category Description Implemented through the basic LACPDU fields including the system LACP priority, system MAC address, port LACP priority, port number, and operational key. Each member port in a LACP-enabled aggregation group exchanges the Basic LACP functions above information with its peer.
Page 55: Aggregating Links In Static Mode
Currently, the 3Com Switch 4500G family support returning Marker Response PDUs only after dynamic link aggregation member ports receive Marker PDUs. Link aggregation modes There are two link aggregation modes: dynamic and static.
Page 56 Selecting a reference port The system selects a reference port from the member ports that are in the up state and have the same class-two configurations as the aggregate interface. The candidate ports are sorted by duplex and speed in this order: full duplex/high speed, full duplex/low speed, half duplex/high speed, and half duplex/low speed.
Page 57: Aggregating Links In Dynamic Mode
Because any port attribute or class-two configuration change on a member port may cause the aggregation state of the port and other member ports to change and thus affect services, you are recommended to do that with caution. A port that joins the static aggregation group after the selected port limit has been reached will not be placed in the selected state even if it should be in normal cases.

Page 62: Enabling Link State Trapping For An Aggregate Interface
Enabling Link State Trapping for an Aggregate Interface With the link state trapping function enabled, an aggregate interface generates linkUp trap messages when its link goes up and linkDown trap messages when its link goes down. For more information, refer to SNMP Configuration in the System Volume.
Page 63 You can configure global or group-specific load sharing criteria. A link aggregation group preferentially uses the group-specific load sharing criteria. If no group-specific load sharing criteria is available, it uses the global load sharing criteria. Configuring the global link-aggregation load sharing criteria Follow these steps to configure the global link-aggregation load sharing criteria: To do...
Page 64: Displaying And Maintaining Ethernet Link Aggregation
Currently, when you configure the load sharing criterion or criteria for a link aggregation group, the switch supports the following criteria: Use a source IP address alone. Use a destination IP address alone. Use a source MAC address alone. Use or a destination MAC address alone. Combine a source IP address and a destination IP address.

Page 78: Protocol Packets Of Stp
Protocol Packets of STP STP uses bridge protocol data units (BPDUs), also known as configuration messages, as its protocol packets. STP-enabled network devices exchange BPDUs to establish a spanning tree. BPDUs contain sufficient information for the network devices to complete spanning tree calculation. In STP, BPDUs come in two types: Configuration BPDUs, used for calculating a spanning tree and maintaining the spanning tree topology.
Page 79: How Stp Works
Figure 1-1 A schematic diagram of designated bridges and designated ports All the ports on the root bridge are designated ports. Path cost Path cost is a reference value used for link selection in STP. By calculating path costs, STP selects relatively robust links and blocks redundant links, and finally prunes the network into a loop-free tree.
Page 80 For simplicity, the descriptions and examples below involve only four fields of configuration BPDUs: Root bridge ID (represented by device priority) Root path cost (related to the rate of the link connecting the port) Designated bridge ID (represented by device priority) Designated port ID (represented by port name) Calculation process of the STP algorithm Initial state...
Page 81 Initially, each STP-enabled device on the network assumes itself to be the root bridge, with the root bridge ID being its own device ID. By exchanging configuration BPDUs, the devices compare their root bridge IDs to elect the device with the smallest root bridge ID as the root bridge. Selection of the root port and designated ports on a non-root device Table 1-3 describes the process of selecting the root port and designated ports.
Page 82 Figure 1-2 Network diagram for the STP algorithm Device A With priority 0 Device B With priority 1 Device C With priority 2 Initial state of each device Table 1-4 shows the initial state of each device. Table 1-4 Initial state of each device Device Port name BPDU of port...
Page 83 BPDU of port Device Comparison process after comparison Port BP1 receives the configuration BPDU of Device A {0, 0, 0, AP1}. Device B finds that the received configuration BPDU is superior to the configuration BPDU of the local port {1, 0, 1, BP1}, and updates the configuration BPDU of BP1.
Page 84 BPDU of port Device Comparison process after comparison After comparison: Because the root path cost of CP2 (9) (root path cost of the BPDU (5) plus path cost corresponding to CP2 (4)) is smaller than the root path cost of CP1 (10) (root path cost of the BPDU (0) + path cost corresponding to CP2 (10)), the BPDU Blocked port CP2: of CP2 is elected as the optimum BPDU, and CP2 is elected...
Page 85: Introduction To Rstp
If a path becomes faulty, the root port on this path will no longer receive new configuration BPDUs and the old configuration BPDUs will be discarded due to timeout. In this case, the device will generate a configuration BPDU with itself as the root and send out the BPDUs and TCN BPDUs. This triggers a new spanning tree calculation process to establish a new path to restore the network connectivity.
Page 86: Introduction To Mstp
Introduction to MSTP Why MSTP Weaknesses of STP and RSTP STP does not support rapid state transition of ports. A newly elected root port or designated port must wait twice the forward delay time before transiting to the forwarding state, even if it is a port on a point-to-point link or an edge port, which directly connects to a user terminal rather than to another device or a shared LAN segment.

Page 88 VLAN-to-instance mapping table As an attribute of an MST region, the VLAN-to-instance mapping table describes the mapping relationships between VLANs and MSTIs. In Figure 1-4, for example, the VLAN-to-instance mapping table of region A0 is as follows: VLAN 1 is mapped to MSTI 1, VLAN 2 to MSTI 2, and the rest to CIST. MSTP achieves load balancing by means of the VLAN-to-instance mapping table.
Page 89 During MSTP calculation, a boundary port’s role on an MSTI is consistent with its role on the CIST. But that is not true with master ports. A master port on MSTIs is a root port on the CIST. Roles of ports MSTP calculation involves these port roles: root port, designated port, master port, alternate port, backup port, and so on.
Page 90: How Mstp Works
Port states In MSTP, port states fall into the following three: Forwarding: the port learns MAC addresses and forwards user traffic; Learning: the port learns MAC addresses but does not forward user traffic; Discarding: the port neither learns MAC addresses nor forwards user traffic. When in different MSTIs, a port can be in different states.
Page 91: Implementation Of Mstp On Devices
Within an MST region, the packet is forwarded along the corresponding MSTI. Between two MST regions, the packet is forwarded along the CST. Implementation of MSTP on Devices MSTP is compatible with STP and RSTP. STP and RSTP protocol packets can be recognized by devices running MSTP and used for spanning tree calculation.

Page 94: Configuring The Root Bridge Or A Secondary Root Bridge
Configuring the Root Bridge or a Secondary Root Bridge MSTP can determine the root bridge of a spanning tree through MSTP calculation. Alternatively, you can specify the current device as the root bridge or a secondary root bridge using the commands provided by the system.
Page 95: Configuring The Work Mode Of An Mstp Device
After specifying the current device as the root bridge or a secondary root bridge, you cannot change the priority of the device. Alternatively, you can also configure the current device as the root bridge by setting the priority of the device to 0. For the device priority configuration, refer to Configuring the Priority of a Device.
Page 96: Configuring The Maximum Hops Of An Mst Region
After configuring a device as the root bridge or a secondary root bridge, you cannot change the priority of the device. During root bridge selection, if all devices in a spanning tree have the same priority, the one with the lowest MAC address will be selected as the root bridge of the spanning tree. Configuring the Maximum Hops of an MST Region By setting the maximum hops of an MST region, you can restrict the region size.
Page 97: Configuring Timers Of Mstp
Based on the network diameter you configured, MSTP automatically sets an optimal hello time, forward delay, and max age for the device. The configured network diameter is effective for the CIST only, and not for MSTIs. Each MST region is considered as a device. The network diameter must be configured on the root bridge.

Page 102: Configuring Port Priority
If you change the standard that the device uses in calculating the default path cost, the port path cost value set through the stp cost command will be invalid. When the path cost of a port is changed, MSTP will re-calculate the role of the port and initiate a state transition.
Page 103: Configuring The Link Type Of Ports
When the priority of a port is changed, MSTP will re-calculate the role of the port and initiate a state transition. Generally, a lower priority value indicates a higher priority. If you configure the same priority value for all the ports on a device, the specific priority of a port depends on the index number of the port. Changing the priority of a port triggers a new spanning tree calculation process.
Page 104: Enabling The Output Of Port State Transition Information
dot1s: 802.1s-compliant standard format, and legacy: Compatible format By default, the packet format recognition mode of a port is auto, namely the port automatically distinguishes the two MSTP packet formats, and determines the format of packets it will send based on the recognized format.

The Ethernet II encapsulation format is used here. Besides the Ethernet II encapsulation format, other encapsulation formats, including 802.2 LLC, 802.2 SNAP, and 802.3 raw, are also supported by Ethernet. The VLAN tag fields are also added to frames encapsulated in these formats for VLAN identification.
Page 141: Configuring Basic Settings Of A Vlan Interface
As the default VLAN, VLAN 1 cannot be created or removed. You cannot manually create or remove VLANs reserved for special purposes. Dynamic VLANs cannot be removed with the undo vlan command. A VLAN with a QoS policy applied cannot be removed. For isolate-user-VLANs or secondary VLANs, if you have used the isolate-user-vlan command to create mappings between them, you cannot remove them until you remove the mappings between them first.

Page 148: Mac-Based Vlan Configuration
MAC-Based VLAN Configuration Introduction to MAC-Based VLAN MAC-based VLANs group VLAN members by MAC address. They are mostly used in conjunction with security technologies such as 802.1X to provide secure, flexible network access for terminal devices. MAC-based VLAN implementation With MAC-based VLAN configured, the device processes received packets as follows: When receiving an untagged frame, the device looks up the list of MAC-to-VLAN mappings based on the source MAC address of the frame for a match.
Page 149: Protocol-Based Vlan Configuration
MAC-based VLANs are available only on hybrid ports. Because MAC-based dynamic port assignment is mainly configured on the downlink ports of the user access devices, do not enable this function together with link aggregation. With MSTP enabled, if the MST instance for the corresponding VLAN is blocked, the packet with the unknown source MAC address will fail to be sent to the CPU.
Page 150: Configuring A Protocol-Based Vlan
Protocol-based VLANs are only applicable on hybrid ports. In this approach, inbound packets are assigned to different VLANs based on their protocol types and encapsulation formats. The protocols that can be used for VLAN assignment include IP, IPX, and AppleTalk (AT). The encapsulation formats include Ethernet II, 802.3 raw, 802.2 LLC, and 802.2 SNAP. A protocol-based VLAN is defined by a protocol template comprised of encapsulation format and protocol type.

Page 152: Ip Subnet-Based Vlan Configuration
IP Subnet-Based VLAN Configuration Introduction In this approach, packets are assigned to VLANs based on their source IP addresses and subnet masks. A port configured with IP subnet-based VLANs assigns a received untagged packet to a VLAN based on the source address of the packet. This feature is used to assign packets from the specified network segment or IP address to a specific VLAN.
Page 153: Displaying And Maintaining Vlan
After you configure a command on a Layer-2 aggregate interface, the system starts applying the configuration to the aggregate interface and its aggregation member ports. If the system fails to do that on the aggregate interface, it stops applying the configuration to the aggregation member ports. If it fails to do that on an aggregation member port, it simply skips the port and moves to the next port.

How QinQ Works The devices in the public network forward a frame only according to its outer VLAN tag and learn its source MAC address into the MAC address table of the outer VLAN. The inner VLAN tag of the frame is transmitted as the payload.
Page 186: Implementations Of Qinq
Figure 1-2 Single-tagged frame structure vs. double-tagged Ethernet frame structure The default maximum transmission unit (MTU) of an interface is 1500 bytes. The size of an outer VLAN tag is 4 bytes. Therefore, you are recommended to increase the MTU of each interface on the service provider network.
Page 187: Protocols And Standards
Figure 1-3 VLAN tag structure of an Ethernet frame The device determines whether a received frame carries a SVLAN tag or a CVLAN tag by checking the corresponding TPID value. Upon receiving a frame, the device compares the configured TPID value with the value of the TPID field in the frame.

Page 197: Bpdu Tunneling Implementation
After receiving a Layer 2 protocol packet from User A network 1, PE 1 in the service provider network encapsulates the packet, replaces its destination MAC address with a specific multicast MAC address, and then forwards the packet in the service provider network; The encapsulated Layer 2 protocol packet (called bridge protocol data unit, BPDU) is forwarded to PE 2 at the other end of the service provider network, which decapsulates the packet, restores the original destination MAC address of the packet, and then sends the packet to User A network 2.
Page 198 To allow each network to calculate an independent spanning tree with STP, BPDU tunneling was introduced. BPDU tunneling delivers the following benefits: BPDUs can be transparently transmitted. BPDUs of the same customer network can be broadcast in a specific VLAN across the service provider network, so that the geographically dispersed networks of the same customer can implement consistent spanning tree calculation across the service provider network.
Page 199: Configuring Bpdu Tunneling
Configuring BPDU Tunneling Configuration Prerequisites Before configuring BPDU tunneling for a protocol, enable the protocol in the customer network first. Assign the port on which you want to enable BPDU tunneling on the PE device and the connected port on the CE device to the same VLAN. Configure ports connecting network devices in the service provider network as trunk ports allowing packets of any VLAN to pass through.

Port Mirroring Configuration When configuring port mirroring, go to these sections for information you are interested in: Introduction to Port Mirroring Configuring Local Port Mirroring Configuring Remote Port Mirroring Displaying and Maintaining Port Mirroring Port Mirroring Configuration Examples Introduction to Port Mirroring Port mirroring is to copy the packets passing through a port (called a mirroring port) to another port (called the monitor port) connected with a monitoring device for packet analysis.
Page 205 Figure 1-1 Local port mirroring implementation How the device processes packets Traffic mirrored to Mirroring port Monitor port Monitor port Mirroring port Data monitoring device Remote port mirroring Remote port mirroring can mirror all packets but protocol packets. Remote port mirroring is implemented through the cooperation of a remote source mirroring group and a remote destination mirroring group as shown Figure 1-2.
Page 206: Configuring Local Port Mirroring
Destination device The destination device is the device where the monitor port is located. On it, you must create the remote destination mirroring group. When receiving a packet, the destination device compares the VLAN ID carried in the packet with the ID of the probe VLAN configured in the remote destination mirroring group.
Page 207: Configuring Remote Port Mirroring
A local port mirroring group takes effect only after its mirroring and monitor ports are configured. To ensure operation of your device, do not enable STP, MSTP, or RSTP on the monitor port. A port mirroring group can have multiple mirroring ports, but only one monitor port. A mirroring or monitor port to be configured cannot belong to an existing port mirroring group.

Page 209: Configuring A Remote Destination Mirroring Group (On The Destination Device)
To remove the VLAN configured as a remote probe VLAN, you must remove the remote probe VLAN with undo mirroring-group remote-probe vlan command first. Removing the probe VLAN can invalidate the remote source mirroring group. You are recommended to use a remote probe VLAN exclusively for the mirroring purpose. A port can belong to only one mirroring group.
Page 210: Displaying And Maintaining Port Mirroring
When configuring the monitor port, use the following guidelines: The port can belong to only the current mirroring group. Disable these functions on the port: STP, MSTP, and RSTP. You are recommended to use a monitor port only for port mirroring. This is to ensure that the data monitoring device receives and analyzes only the mirrored traffic rather than a mix of mirrored traffic and normally forwarded traffic.

Page 223: Special Ip Addresses
Table 1-1 IP address classes and ranges Class Address range Remarks The IP address 0.0.0.0 is used by a host at bootstrap for temporary communication. This address is never a valid destination address. 0.0.0.0 to 127.255.255.255 Addresses starting with 127 are reserved for loopback test. Packets destined to these addresses are processed locally as input packets rather than sent to the link.
Page 224: Configuring Ip Addresses
In the absence of subnetting, some special addresses such as the addresses with the net ID of all zeros and the addresses with the host ID of all ones, are not assignable to hosts. The same is true for subnetting. When designing your network, you should note that subnetting is somewhat a tradeoff between subnets and accommodated hosts.
Page 225: Ip Addressing Configuration Example
The primary IP address you assigned to the interface can overwrite the old one if there is any. You cannot assign secondary IP addresses to an interface that has BOOTP or DHCP configured. The primary and secondary IP addresses you assign to the interface can be located on the same network segment.

After receiving the ARP reply, Host A adds the MAC address of Host B to its ARP table. Meanwhile, Host A encapsulates the IP packet and sends it out. Figure 1-2 ARP address resolution process If Host A is not on the same subnet with Host B, Host A first sends an ARP request to the gateway. The target IP address in the ARP request is the IP address of the gateway.

in the non-permanent static ARP entry, the device adds the interface receiving the ARP reply to the non-permanent static ARP entry. Then the entry can be used for forwarding IP packets. Usually ARP dynamically resolves IP addresses to MAC addresses, without manual intervention. To allow communication with a device using a fixed IP-to-MAC mapping, configure a short static ARP entry for it.

You can solve the problem by enabling proxy ARP on Switch. After that, Switch can reply to the ARP request from Host A with the MAC address of VLAN-interface 1, and forward packets sent from Host A to Host B. In this case, Switch seems to be a proxy of Host B. A main advantage of proxy ARP is that it is added on a single router without disturbing routing tables of other routers in the network.

Page 302: Introduction To Ipv6 Address
Enhanced neighbor discovery mechanism The IPv6 neighbor discovery protocol is implemented through a group of Internet Control Message Protocol Version 6 (ICMPv6) messages that manage the information exchange between neighbor nodes on the same link. The group of ICMPv6 messages takes the place of Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) messages, Internet Control Message Protocol version 4 (ICMPv4) router discovery messages, and ICMPv4 redirection messages and provides a series of other functions.
Page 303 Anycast address: An identifier for a set of interfaces (typically belonging to different nodes). A packet sent to an anycast address is delivered to one of the interfaces identified by that address (the target interface is nearest to the source, according to a routing protocol’s measure of distance).

Page 306 After receiving the NS message, node B judges whether the destination address of the packet is its solicited-node multicast address. If yes, node B learns the link-layer address of node A, and then unicasts an NA message containing its link-layer address. Node A acquires the link-layer address of node B from the NA message.
Page 307: Ipv6 Pmtu Discovery
The router returns an RA message containing information such as prefix information option. (The router also regularly sends an RA message.) The node automatically generates an IPv6 address and other information for its interface according to the address prefix and other configuration parameters in the RA message. In addition to an address prefix, the prefix information option also contains the preferred lifetime and valid lifetime of the address prefix.
Page 308: Introduction To Ipv6 Dns
The source host uses its MTU to send packets to the destination host. If the MTU supported by a forwarding interface is smaller than the packet size, the forwarding device will discard the packet and return an ICMPv6 error packet containing the interface MTU to the source host.

RIP Configuration The term “router” in this document refers to a router in a generic sense or a Layer 3 switch. When configuring RIP, go to these sections for information you are interested in: RIP Overview Configuring RIP Basic Functions Configuring RIP Route Control Configuring RIP Network Optimization Displaying and Maintaining RIP...
Page 350: Rip Version
Egress interface: Packet outgoing interface. Metric: Cost from the local router to the destination. Route time: Time elapsed since the routing entry was last updated. The time is reset to 0 every time the routing entry is updated. Route tag: Identifies a route, used in a routing policy to flexibly control routes. For information about routing policy, refer to Routing Policy Configuration in the IP Routing Volume.
Page 351: Rip Message Format
RIPv1, a classful routing protocol, supports message advertisement via broadcast only. RIPv1 protocol messages do not carry mask information, which means it can only recognize routing information of natural networks such as Class A, B, C. That is why RIPv1 does not support discontiguous subnets. RIPv2 is a classless routing protocol.
Page 352 RIPv2 message format The format of RIPv2 message is similar to RIPv1. Figure 1-2 shows it. Figure 1-2 RIPv2 Message Format The differences from RIPv1 are stated as following. Version: Version of RIP. For RIPv2 the value is 0x02. Route Tag: Route Tag. IP Address: Destination IP address.
Page 353: Protocols And Standards
RFC 1723 only defines plain text authentication. For information about MD5 authentication, refer to RFC 2453 “RIP Version 2”. With RIPv1, you can configure the authentication mode in interface view. However, the configuration will not take effect because RIPv1 does not support authentication. Supported RIP Features The current implementation supports the following RIP features.
Page 354 If you make some RIP configurations in interface view before enabling RIP, those configurations will take effect after RIP is enabled. RIP runs only on the interfaces residing on the specified networks. Therefore, you need to specify the network after enabling RIP to validate RIP on a specific interface. You can enable RIP on all interfaces using the command network 0.0.0.0.
Page 355: Configuring Rip Route Control
Follow these steps to configure a RIP version: To do… Use the command… Remarks Enter system view system-view –– Enter RIP view rip [ process-id ] –– Optional By default, if an interface has a RIP version specified, the version takes precedence over the global one.
Page 356: Configuring Ripv2 Route Summarization
The outbound additional metric is added to the metric of a sent route, and the route’s metric in the routing table is not changed. The inbound additional metric is added to the metric of a received route before the route is added into the routing table, and the route’s metric is changed.
Page 357: Disabling Host Route Reception
To do… Use the command… Remarks rip summary-address ip-address Advertise a summary route Required { mask | mask-length } You need to disable RIPv2 route automatic summarization before advertising a summary route on an interface. Disabling Host Route Reception Sometimes a router may receive from the same network many host routes, which are not helpful for routing and consume a large amount of network resources.

Page 402: Multicast Overview
Multicast Overview This manual chiefly focuses on the IP multicast technology and device operations. Unless otherwise stated, the term “multicast” in this document refers to IP multicast. Introduction to Multicast As a technique coexisting with unicast and broadcast, the multicast technique effectively addresses the issue of point-to-multipoint data transmission.
Page 403 Figure 1-1 Unicast transmission Host A Receiver Host B Source Host C Receiver Host D IP network Receiver Packets for Host B Host E Packets for Host D Packets for Host E Assume that Host B, Host D and Host E need the information. A separate transmission channel needs to be established from the information source to each of these hosts.
Page 404 Figure 1-2 Broadcast transmission Assume that only Host B, Host D, and Host E need the information. If the information is broadcast to the subnet, Host A and Host C also receive it. In addition to information security issues, this also causes traffic flooding on the same subnet.
Page 405: Features Of Multicast
Figure 1-3 Multicast transmission The multicast source (Source in the figure) sends only one copy of the information to a multicast group. Host B, Host D and Host E, which are receivers of the information, need to join the multicast group. The routers on the network duplicate and forward the information based on the distribution of the group members.
Page 406: Common Notations In Multicast
For a better understanding of the multicast concept, you can assimilate multicast transmission to the transmission of TV programs, as shown in Table 1-1. Table 1-1 An analogy between TV transmission and multicast transmission TV transmission Multicast transmission A TV station transmits a TV program through A multicast source sends multicast data to a a channel.

ASM model In the ASM model, any sender can send information to a multicast group as a multicast source, and numbers of receivers can join a multicast group identified by a group address and obtain multicast information addressed to that multicast group. In this model, receivers are not aware of the position of multicast sources in advance.
Page 408: Multicast Addresses
Multicast Addresses To allow communication between multicast sources and multicast group members, network-layer multicast addresses, namely, multicast IP addresses must be provided. In addition, a technique must be available to map multicast IP addresses to link-layer multicast MAC addresses. IP multicast addresses IPv4 multicast addresses Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) assigned the Class D address space (224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255) for IPv4 multicast.

Page 410 Description When set to 0, it indicates that this address is an IPv6 multicast address permanently-assigned by IANA When set to 1, it indicates that this address is a transient, or dynamically assigned IPv6 multicast address Scope: 4 bits, indicating the scope of the IPv6 internetwork for which the multicast traffic is intended. Possible values of this field are given in Table 1-5.
Page 411 Figure 1-6 IPv4-to-MAC address mapping The high-order four bits of a multicast IPv4 address are 1110, indicating that this address is a multicast address, and only 23 bits of the remaining 28 bits are mapped to a MAC address, so five bits of the multicast IPv4 address are lost.
Page 412: Multicast Protocols
Multicast Protocols Generally, we refer to IP multicast working at the network layer as Layer 3 multicast and the corresponding multicast protocols as Layer 3 multicast protocols, which include IGMP/MLD, PIM/IPv6 PIM, MSDP, and MBGP/IPv6 MBGP; we refer to IP multicast working at the data link layer as Layer 2 multicast and the corresponding multicast protocols as Layer 2 multicast protocols, which include IGMP Snooping/MLD Snooping, and multicast VLAN/IPv6 multicast VLAN.
Page 413 In the ASM model, multicast routes come in intra-domain routes and inter-domain routes. An intra-domain multicast routing protocol is used to discover multicast sources and build multicast distribution trees within an AS so as to deliver multicast data to receivers. Among a variety of mature intra-domain multicast routing protocols, protocol independent multicast (PIM) is a popular one.
Page 414: Multicast Packet Forwarding Mechanism
Multicast Packet Forwarding Mechanism In a multicast model, a multicast source sends information to the host group identified by the multicast group address in the destination address field of IP multicast packets. Therefore, to deliver multicast packets to receivers located in different parts of the network, multicast routers on the forwarding path usually need to forward multicast packets received on one incoming interface to multiple outgoing interfaces.

Page 419 When receiving a membership report A host sends an IGMP report to the IGMP querier in the following circumstances: Upon receiving an IGMP query, a multicast group member host responds with an IGMP report. When intended to join a multicast group, a host sends an IGMP report to the IGMP querier to announce that it is interested in the multicast information addressed to that group.
Page 420: Protocols And Standards
Upon receiving the IGMP leave message from a host, the IGMP querier resolves the multicast group address in the message and sends an IGMP group-specific query to that multicast group through the port that received the leave message. Upon receiving the IGMP group-specific query, the switch forwards it through all its router ports in the VLAN and all member ports for that multicast group, and performs the following to the port on which it received the IGMP leave message: If any IGMP report in response to the group-specific query is received on the port (suppose it is a...
Page 421: Configuring Basic Functions Of Igmp Snooping
Configurations made in IGMP Snooping view are effective for all VLANs, while configurations made in VLAN view are effective only for ports belonging to the current VLAN. For a given VLAN, a configuration made in IGMP Snooping view is effective only if the same configuration is not made in VLAN view.
Page 422: Configuring The Version Of Igmp Snooping
IGMP Snooping must be enabled globally before it can be enabled in a VLAN. When you enable IGMP Snooping in a specified VLAN, this function takes effect for the ports in this VLAN only. Configuring the Version of IGMP Snooping By configuring an IGMP Snooping version, you actually configure the version of IGMP messages that IGMP Snooping can process.
Page 423: Configuring Aging Timers For Dynamic Ports
Configuring Aging Timers for Dynamic Ports If the switch receives no IGMP general queries or PIM hello messages on a dynamic router port, the switch removes the port from the router port list when the aging timer of the port expires. If the switch receives no IGMP reports for a multicast group on a dynamic member port, the switch removes the port from the outgoing port list of the forwarding table entry for that multicast group when the aging timer of the port for that group expires.

It is meaningless to configure an IGMP Snooping querier in a multicast network running IGMP. Although an IGMP Snooping querier does not take part in IGMP querier elections, it may affect IGMP querier elections because it sends IGMP general queries with a low source IP address.

Reducing Layer 2 broadcast packets, thus saving network bandwidth. Enhancing the security of multicast traffic. Facilitating the implementation of per-host accounting. Basic Concepts in MLD Snooping MLD Snooping related ports As shown in Figure 1-2, Router A connects to the multicast source, MLD Snooping runs on Switch A and Switch B, Host A and Host C are receiver hosts (namely, IPv6 multicast group members).
Page 459: How Mld Snooping Works
Whenever mentioned in this document, a router port is a router-connecting port on the switch, rather than a port on a router. Unless otherwise specified, router/member ports mentioned in this document include static and dynamic ports. On an MLD Snooping-enabled switch, the ports that received MLD general queries with the source address other than 0::0 or IPv6 PIM hello messages are dynamic router ports.
Page 460 General queries The MLD querier periodically sends MLD general queries to all hosts and routers (FF02::1) on the local subnet to find out whether IPv6 multicast group members exist on the subnet. Upon receiving an MLD general query, the switch forwards it through all ports in the VLAN except the port on which it received the MLD query and performs the following: If the port on which it the switch received the MLD query is a dynamic router port in its router port list, the switch resets the aging timer for this dynamic router port.
Page 461: Protocols And Standards
If the forwarding table entry does not exist or if the outgoing port list does not contain the port, the switch discards the MLD done message instead of forwarding it to any port. If the forwarding table entry exists and the outgoing port list contains the port, the switch forwards the MLD done message to all router ports in the native VLAN.

Configuring MLD Report Suppression When a Layer 2 device receives an MLD report from an IPv6 multicast group member, the Layer 2 device forwards the message to the Layer 3 device directly connected with it. Thus, when multiple members belonging to an IPv6 multicast group exist on the Layer 2 device, the Layer 3 device directly connected with it will receive duplicate MLD reports from these members.
Page 473: Configuring Ipv6 Multicast Group Replacement
When the number of IPv6 multicast groups that can be joined on a port reaches the maximum number configured, the system deletes all the forwarding entries persistent to that port from the MLD Snooping forwarding table, and the hosts on this port need to join IPv6 multicast groups again.

In a network, you can improve the QoS by guaranteeing the bandwidth, and reducing the delay, jitter, and packet loss rate.
Page 501: Diffserv Service Model
However, the Inter-Serv model imposes extremely high requirements on devices. In a network with heavy data traffic, the Inter-Serv model imposes very great pressure on the storage and processing capabilities of devices. On the other hand, the Inter-Serv model is poor in scalability, and therefore, it is hard to be deployed in the core Internet network.
Page 502 Congestion avoidance monitors the usage status of network resources and is usually applied to the outgoing traffic of a port. As congestion becomes worse, it actively reduces the amount of traffic by dropping packets.

Page 520: Traffic Policing
Complicated evaluation You can set two token buckets, the C bucket and the E bucket, to evaluate traffic in a more complicated environment and achieve more policing flexibility. For example, traffic policing uses four parameters: CIR: Rate at which tokens are put into the C bucket, that is, the average packet transmission or forwarding rate allowed by the C bucket.
Page 521: Line Rate
Line Rate The line rate of a physical interface specifies the maximum rate for forwarding packets (including critical packets). Line rate also uses token buckets for traffic control. With line rate configured on an interface, all packets to be sent through the interface are firstly handled by the token bucket at line rate. If there are enough tokens in the token bucket, packets can be forwarded;...

Page 525 queuing algorithm addresses a particular network traffic problem and which algorithm is used affects bandwidth resource assignment, delay, and jitter significantly. The Switch 4500G series support the following four queue scheduling methods: Scheduling all queues with the strict priority (SP) algorithm. Scheduling all queues with the weighted round robin (WRR) algorithm.
Page 526 Figure 5-3 Schematic diagram for WRR queuing Assume there are eight output queues on a port. WRR assigns each queue a weight value (represented by w7, w6, w5, w4, w3, w2, w1, or w0) to decide the proportion of resources assigned to the queue. On a 100 Mbps port, you can configure the weight values of WRR queuing to 5, 3, 1, 1, 5, 3, 1, and 10 (corresponding to w7, w6, w5, w4, w3, w2, w1, and w0 respectively).
Page 527: Congestion Management Configuration Approaches
Short packets and long packets are fairly scheduled: if there are both long packets and short packets in queues, statistically the short packets should be scheduled preferentially to reduce the jitter between packets as a whole. Compared with FQ, WFQ takes weights into account when determining the queue scheduling order. Statistically, WFQ gives high priority traffic more scheduling opportunities than low priority traffic.

Based on different application scenarios, you can configure different items for a user profile, such as Committed Access Rate (CAR), Quality of Service (QoS), and so on.
Page 552: Creating A User Profile
Creating a User Profile Configuration Prerequisites Before creating a user profile, you need to configure authentication parameters. User profile supports 802.1X authentications. You need to perform the related configurations (for example, username, password, authentication scheme, domain and binding between a user profile and user) on the client, the device and authentication server.
Page 553: Enabling A User Profile
When a user profile is active, you cannot configure or remove the QoS policy applied to it. The QoS policies applied in user profile view support only the remark, car, and filter actions. Do not apply an empty QoS policy in user profile view, because even if you can do that, the user profile cannot be activated.

When a user tries to establish a connection to the NAS and to obtain the rights to access other networks or some network resources, the NAS authenticates the user or the corresponding connection. The NAS can transparently pass the user’s AAA information to the server (RADIUS server or HWTACACS server). The RADIUS/HWTACACS protocol defines how a NAS and a server exchange user information between them.
Page 560: Security And Authentication Mechanisms
connection requests, authenticates users, and returns the processing results (for example, rejecting or accepting the user access request) to the clients. In general, the RADIUS server maintains three databases, namely, Users, Clients, and Dictionary, as shown in Figure 1-2: Figure 1-2 RADIUS server components Users: Stores user information such as the usernames, passwords, applied protocols, and IP addresses.

Figure 1-5 shows its encapsulation format.
Page 607: Authentication Process
Authentication Process of 802.1X An 802.1X device communicates with a remotely located RADIUS server in two modes: EAP relay and EAP termination. The following description takes the EAP relay as an example to show the 802.1X authentication process. EAP relay EAP relay is an IEEE 802.1X standard mode.
Page 608 Upon receiving the EAP-Response/Identity packet, the device relays the packet in a RADIUS Access-Request packet to the authentication server. When receiving the RADIUS Access-Request packet, the RADIUS server compares the identify information against its user information table to obtain the corresponding password information. Then, it encrypts the password information using a randomly generated challenge, and sends the challenge information through a RADIUS Access-Challenge packet to the device.

Handshake timer (handshake-period): After a client passes authentication, the device sends to the client handshake requests at this interval to check whether the client is online. If the device receives no response after sending the allowed maximum number of handshake requests, it considers that the client is offline.
Page 611 The assigned VLAN neither changes nor affects the configuration of a port. However, as the assigned VLAN has higher priority than the initial VLAN of the port, it is the assigned VLAN that takes effect after a user passes authentication. After the user goes offline, the port returns to the initial VLAN of the port. For details about VLAN configuration, refer to VLAN Configuration in the Access Volume.
Page 612: Configuring 802.1X
The online user handshake security function helps prevent online users from using illegal client software to exchange handshake messages with the device. Using illegal client software for handshake message exchange may result in escape from some security inspection functions, such as proxy detection and dual network interface card (NIC) detection.

The iNode client software and iMC server are recommended to ensure the normal operation of the online user handshake security function. Once enabled with the 802.1X multicast trigger function, a port sends multicast trigger messages to the client periodically to initiate authentication.

Page 635: Local Mac Authentication
Local MAC Authentication In local MAC authentication, the device performs authentication of users locally and different items need to be manually configured for users on the device according to the specified type of username: If the type of username is MAC address, a local user must be configured for each user on the device, using the MAC address of the accessing user as both the username and password.
Page 636: Acl Assigning
MAC authentication supports MAC-based guest VLAN (MGV). With MGV configured on a port, users failing the authentication on the port are authorized to access the resources in the guest VLAN. If a user in the guest VLAN initiates another authentication process but fails the authentication, the device will keep the user in the guest VLAN.

Port Security Configuration When configuring port security, go to these sections for information you are interested in: Introduction to Port Security Port Security Configuration Task List Displaying and Maintaining Port Security Port Security Configuration Examples Troubleshooting Port Security Introduction to Port Security Port Security Overview Port security is a MAC address-based security mechanism for network access controlling.
Page 646: Port Security Modes
Intrusion protection The intrusion protection feature checks the source MAC addresses in inbound frames and takes a pre-defined action accordingly upon detecting illegal frames. The action may be disabling the port temporarily, disabling the port permanently, or blocking frames from the MAC address for three minutes (unmodifiable).
Page 647 Feature that On the port, if you want to… Use the security mode… can be triggered These security mode naming rules may help you remember the modes: userLogin specifies 802.1X authentication and port-based access control. macAddress specifies MAC address authentication. Else specifies that the authentication method before Else is applied first.
Page 648 wireless users, the port performs OUI check at first. If the OUI check fails, the port performs 802.1X authentication. Perform MAC authentication macAddressWithRadius: A port in this mode performs MAC authentication for users and services multiple users. Perform a combination of MAC authentication and 802.1X authentication macAddressOrUserLoginSecure This mode is the combination of macAddressWithRadius and userLoginSecure modes.
Page 649: Support For Guest Vlan
userLogin specifies port-based 802.1X authentication. macAddress specifies MAC address authentication. Else specifies that the authentication method before Else is applied first. If the authentication fails, the protocol type of the authentication request determines whether to turn to the authentication method following the Else. In a security mode with Or, the protocol type of the authentication request determines which authentication method is to be used.
Page 650: Setting The Maximum Number Of Secure Mac Addresses
To do… Use the command… Remarks Required Enable port security port-security enable Disabled by default Note that: Enabling port security resets the following configurations on a port to the bracketed defaults. Then, values of these configurations cannot be changed manually; the system will adjust them based on the port security mode automatically: 802.1X (disabled), port access control method (macbased), and port access control mode (auto) MAC authentication (disabled)
Page 651: Setting The Port Security Mode
Setting the Port Security Mode Configuration Prerequisites Before setting the port security mode, ensure that: 802.1X is disabled, the port access control method is macbased, and the port access control mode is auto. MAC authentication is disabled. The port does not belong to any aggregation group. The above requirements must be all met.
Page 652: Configuring Port Security Features
You cannot change the maximum number of secure MAC addresses allowed on a port that operates in autoLearn mode. OUI, defined by IEEE, is the first 24 bits of the MAC address and uniquely identifies a device vendor. You can configure multiple OUI values. However, a port in userLoginWithOUI mode allows only one 802.1X user and one user whose MAC address contains a specified OUI.
Page 653: Configuring Intrusion Protection
Configuring Intrusion Protection The intrusion protection enables a device to perform either of the following security policies when it detects illegal frames: blockmac: Adds the source MAC addresses of illegal frames to the blocked MAC addresses list and discards frames with blocked source MAC addresses. A blocked MAC address is restored to normal after being blocked for three minutes, which is fixed and cannot be changed.
Page 654: Configuring Secure Mac Addresses
Configuring Secure MAC Addresses Secure MAC addresses are special MAC addresses. They never age out or get lost if saved before the device restarts. One secure MAC address can be added to only one port in the same VLAN. Thus, you can bind a MAC address to one port in the same VLAN.

Page 674 Stages Description After the server grants the request, the client and server start to Interaction communicate with each other. Version negotiation The server opens port 22 to listen to connection requests from clients. The client sends a TCP connection request to the server. After the TCP connection is established, the server sends the first packet to the client, which includes a version identification string in the format “SSH-<primary...
Page 675 Before the negotiation, the server must have already generated a DSA or RSA key pair, which is not only used for generating the session key, but also used by the client to authenticate the identity of the server. For details about DSA and RSA key pairs, refer to Public Key Configuration in the Security Volume.
Page 676: Configuring The Device As An Ssh Server
back to the client an SSH_SMSG_SUCCESS packet and goes on to the interactive session stage with the client. Otherwise, the server sends back to the client an SSH_SMSG_FAILURE packet, indicating that the processing fails or it cannot resolve the request. Interaction In this stage, the server and the client exchanges data in the following way: The client encrypts and sends the command to be executed to the server.
Page 677: Enabling Ssh Server
For details about the public-key local create command, refer to Public Key Commands in the Security Volume. To ensure that all SSH clients can log into the SSH server successfully, you are recommended to generate both DSA and RSA key pairs on the SSH server. This is because different SSH clients may use different publickey algorithms, though a single client usually uses only one type of publickey algorithm.

A user without an SSH account can still pass password authentication and log into the server through Stelnet or SFTP, as long as the user can pass AAA authentication and the service type is SSH. An SSH server supports up to 1024 SSH users. The service type of an SSH user can be Stelnet (Secure Telnet) or SFTP (Secure FTP).

Configuring Whether First-time Authentication is Supported When the device connects to the SSH server as an SSH client, you can configure whether the device supports first-time authentication. With first-time authentication, when an SSH client not configured with the server host public key accesses the server for the first time, the user can continue accessing the server, and save the host public key on the client.

Page 696: Configuring The Sftp Connection Idle Timeout Period
When the device functions as the SFTP server, only one client can access the SFTP server at a time. If the SFTP client uses WinSCP, a file on the server cannot be modified directly; it can only be downloaded to a local place, modified, and then uploaded to the server. Configuring the SFTP Connection Idle Timeout Period Once the idle period of an SFTP connection exceeds the specified threshold, the system automatically tears the connection down, so that a user cannot occupy a connection for nothing.

An existing certificate may need to be revoked when, for example, the user name changes, the private key leaks, or the user stops the business. Revoking a certificate is to remove the binding of the public key with the user identity information. In PKI, the revocation is made through certificate revocation lists (CRLs).
Page 707: Applications Of Pki
PKI repository A PKI repository can be a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server or a common database. It stores and manages information like certificate requests, certificates, keys, CRLs and logs while providing a simple query function. LDAP is a protocol for accessing and managing PKI information. An LDAP server stores user information and digital certificates from the RA server and provides directory navigation service.

Page 730: Ssl Server Policy Configuration Example
If you enable client authentication here, you must request a local certificate for the client. Currently, SSL mainly comes in these versions: SSL 2.0, SSL 3.0, and TLS 1.0, where TLS 1.0 corresponds to SSL 3.1. When the device acts as an SSL server, it can communicate with clients running SSL 3.0 or TLS 1.0, and can identify Hello packets from clients running SSL 2.0.

Configuration of the public-key local create command can survive a reboot. The public-key local create rsa command generates two key pairs: one server key pair and one host key pair. Each key pair consists of a public key and a private key. The length of an RSA key modulus is in the range 512 to 2048 bits.
Page 738: Displaying And Maintaining Public Keys
Import it from the public key file: The system automatically converts the public key to a string coded using the PKCS (Public Key Cryptography Standards). Before importing the public key, you must upload the peer's public key file (in binary) to the local host through FTP or TFTP. If you choose to input the public key, the public key must be in a correct format.

ACL Overview The following functions are added in V05.02.00 of the Switch 4500G series: Applying an ACL for packet filtering and outputting packet filtering logs. For details, refer to Application for Packet Filtering. The established keyword that is used to specify the TCP flags ACK and RST in advanced IPv4/IPv6 ACL rules.
Page 746: Introduction To Ipv4 Acl
Hardware-based application: An ACL is assigned to a piece of hardware. For example, an ACL is applied to an Ethernet interface or VLAN interface for packet filtering or is referenced by a QoS policy for traffic classification. Note that when an ACL is referenced to implement QoS, the actions defined in the ACL rules, deny or permit, do not take effect;...
Page 747: Ipv4 Acl Naming
IPv4 ACL Naming When creating an IPv4 ACL, you can specify a unique name for it. Afterwards, you can identify the ACL by its name. An IPv4 ACL can have only one name. Whether to specify a name for an ACL is up to you. After creating an ACL, you cannot specify a name for it, nor can you change or remove its name.
Page 748: Ipv4 Acl Step
Depth-first match for an Ethernet frame header ACL The following shows how your device performs depth-first match in an Ethernet frame header ACL: Sort rules by source MAC address mask first and compare packets against the rule configured with more ones in the source MAC address mask. If two rules are present with the same number of ones in their source MAC address masks, look at the destination MAC address masks.

For more information about STP and RRPP, refer to MSTP Configuration in the Access Volume and RRPP Configuration in the High Availability Volume. Smart Link is a feature developed to address the slow convergence issue with STP. It provides link redundancy as well as fast convergence in a dual uplink network, allowing the backup link to take over quickly when the primary link fails.
Page 789: How Smart Link Works
Receive control VLAN The receive control VLAN is used for receiving and processing flush messages. When link switchover occurs, the devices (such as Device A, Device B, and Device E in Figure 1-1) receive and process flush messages in the receive control VLAN and refresh their MAC address forwarding entries and ARP/ND entries.
Page 790: Smart Link Configuration Task List
configured with role preemption, GE1/0/1 takes over to forward traffic as soon as the former master link recovers, while GE1/0/2 is automatically blocked and placed in the standby state. Load sharing mechanism A ring network may carry traffic of multiple VLANs. Smart link can forward traffic of different VLANs in different smart link groups, thus implementing load sharing.

Page 813: Basic Concepts In Rrpp
Basic Concepts in RRPP Figure 1-1 RRPP networking diagram RRPP domain The interconnected devices with the same domain ID and control VLANs constitute an RRPP domain. An RRPP domain contains the following elements: primary ring, subring, control VLAN, master node, transit node, primary port, secondary port, common port, and edge port.
Page 814 IP address configuration is prohibited on the control VLAN interfaces. Data VLAN A data VLAN is a VLAN dedicated to transferring data packets. Both RRPP ports and non-RRPP ports can be assigned to a data VLAN. Node Each device on an RRPP ring is referred to as a node. The role of a node is configurable. There are the following node roles: Master node: Each ring has one and only one master node.
Page 815: Rrppdus
Common port and edge port The ports connecting the edge node and assistant-edge node to the primary ring are common ports. The ports connecting the edge node and assistant-edge node only to the subrings are edge ports. As shown in Figure 1-1, Device B and Device C lie on Ring 1 and Ring 2.
Page 816: Rrpp Timers
RRPPDUs of subrings are transmitted as data packets in the primary ring, while RRPPDUs of the primary ring can only be transmitted within the primary ring. RRPP Timers When RRPP checks the link state of an Ethernet ring, the master node sends Hello packets out the primary port according to the Hello timer and determines whether its secondary port receives the Hello packets based on the Fail timer.
Page 817 while sending Common-Flush-FDB packet to instruct all the transit nodes, the edge nodes and the assistant-edge nodes to update their own MAC entries and ARP/ND entries. After each node updates its own entries, traffic is switched to the normal link. Ring recovery The master node may find the ring is restored after a period of time after the ports belonging to the RRPP domain on the transit nodes, the edge nodes, or the assistant-edge nodes are brought up again.
Page 818: Typical Rrpp Networking
Typical RRPP Networking Here are several typical networking applications. Single ring As shown in Figure 1-2, there is only a single ring in the network topology. In this case, you only need to define an RRPP domain. Figure 1-2 Schematic diagram for a single-ring network Tangent rings As shown in Figure...
Page 819 Figure 1-4 Schematic diagram for an intersecting-ring network Dual homed rings As shown in Figure 1-5, there are two or more rings in the network topology and two similar common nodes between rings. In this case, you only need to define an RRPP domain, and configure one ring as the primary ring and the other rings as subrings.

Page 823: Configuring Rrpp Rings
Configuring RRPP Rings When configuring an RRPP ring, you must make some configurations on the ports connecting each node to the RRPP ring before configuring the nodes. RRPP ports, that is, ports connecting devices to an RRPP ring, must be Layer-2 GE ports, Layer-2 XGE ports, or Layer-2 aggregate interfaces and cannot be member ports of any aggregation group, service loopback group, or smart link group.

The Fail timer value must be equal to or greater than three times the Hello timer value. To avoid temporary loops when the primary ring fails in a dual-homed-ring network, ensure that the difference between the Fail timer value on the master node of the subring and that on the master node of the primary ring is greater than twice the Hello timer value of the master node of the subring.

Page 848 State Indicates… All neighbors are bi-directionally reachable or DLDP has been in Advertisement active state for more than five seconds. This is a relatively stable state where no unidirectional link has been detected. DLDP enters this state if it receives a packet from an unknown neighbor.
Page 849 DLDP timer Description In the enhanced mode, this timer is triggered if no packet is received from a neighbor when the entry aging timer expires. Enhanced timer is set to 1 second. Enhanced timer After the Enhanced timer is triggered, the device sends up to eight probe packets to the neighbor at a frequency of one packet per second.

Page 852 Packet type Processing procedure If the corresponding neighbor entry does not exist, creates the neighbor entry, triggers the Entry timer, and transits to Probe state. If the neighbor information it carries conflicts with the corresponding locally Retrieves the maintained neighbor entry, drops the Echo packet neighbor packet.
Page 853: Dldp Configuration Task List
The DLDP down port sends out a RecoverProbe packet, which carries only information about the local port, every two seconds. Upon receiving the RecoverProbe packet, the remote end returns a RecoverEcho packet. Upon receiving the RecoverEcho packet, the local port checks whether neighbor information in the RecoverEcho packet is the same as the local port information.
Page 854: Enabling Dldp
For DLDP to work properly, enable DLDP on both sides and make sure these settings are consistent: the interval for sending Advertisement packets, DLDP authentication mode, and password. DLDP does not process any link aggregation control protocol (LACP) events. The links in an aggregation are treated as individual links in DLDP.
Page 855: Setting The Interval For Sending Advertisement Packets

Page 866 OAM connections can be initiated only by OAM entities operating in active OAM mode, while those operating in passive mode wait and respond to the connection requests sent by their peers. No OAM connection can be established between OAM entities operating in passive OAM mode. After an Ethernet OAM connection is established, the Ethernet OAM entities on both sides exchange Information OAMPDUs periodically to keep the Ethernet OAM connection valid.

Remote loopback enables you to check the link status and locate link failures. Performing remote loopback periodically helps to detect network faults in time. Furthermore, performing remote loopback by network segments helps to locate network faults. Standards and Protocols Ethernet OAM is defined in IEEE 802.3h (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) Access Method and Physical Layer Specifications).
Page 869: Configuring Link Monitoring
Configuring Link Monitoring After Ethernet OAM connections are established, the link monitoring periods and thresholds configured in this section take effect on all Ethernet ports automatically. Configuring Errored Symbol Event Detection An errored symbol event occurs when the number of detected symbol errors over a specific detection interval exceeds the predefined threshold.

Because enabling Ethernet OAM remote loopback impacts other services, use this function with caution. Ethernet OAM remote loopback is available only after the Ethernet OAM connection is established and can be performed only by the Ethernet OAM entities operating in active Ethernet OAM mode. Remote loopback is available only on full-duplex links that support remote loopback at both ends.

Page 876 Figure 1-1 Two nested MDs CFD exchanges messages and performs operations on a per-domain basis. By planning MDs properly in a network, you can use CFD to rapidly locate failure points. Maintenance association A maintenance association (MA) is a set of maintenance points (MPs) in an MD. An MA is identified by the “MD name + MA name”.
Page 877 As shown in Figure 1-2, an outward-facing MEP sends packets to its host port. Figure 1-3 Inward-facing MEP As shown in Figure 1-3, an inward-facing MEP does not send packets to its host port. Rather, it sends packets to other ports on the device. A MIP is internal to an MD.
Page 878: Cfd Functions
CFD Functions CFD works effectively only in properly-configured networks. Its functions, which are implemented through the MPs, include: Continuity check (CC) Loopback (LB) Linktrace (LT) Continuity check Continuity check is responsible for checking the connectivity between MEPs. Connectivity faults are usually caused by device faults or configuration errors.
