AppleTalk Routing Commands


AppleTalk is a local-area network system that was designed and developed by Apple Computer, Inc. It can run over Ethernet, Token Ring, and FDDI networks, and over Apple's proprietary twisted-pair media access system (LocalTalk). AppleTalk specifies a protocol stack comprising several protocols that direct the flow of traffic over the network.

Apple Computer uses the name AppleTalk to refer to the Apple networking architecture. Apple refers to the actual transmission media used in an AppleTalk network as LocalTalk (Apple's proprietary twisted-pair transmission medium for AppleTalk), TokenTalk (AppleTalk over Token Ring), EtherTalk (AppleTalk over Ethernet), and FDDITalk (AppleTalk over Fiber Distributed Data Interface).

Use the commands in this chapter to configure and monitor AppleTalk networks. For AppleTalk configuration information and examples, refer to the "Configuring AppleTalk Routing" chapter in the Access and Communication Servers Configuration Guide .


Note   This chapter discusses routing functionality of your access server. For simplicity, we have used the term access server to indicate those servers which provide routing, and therefore act as routers.


access-list additional-zones

To define the default action to take for access checks that apply to zones, use the access-list additional-zones global configuration command.

access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} additional-zones

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.

deny

Denies access if the conditions are matched.

permit

Permits access if the conditions are matched.


Default

No access lists are predefined.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The access-list additional-zones command defines the action to take for access checks not explicitly defined with the access-list zone command. If you do not specify this command, the default action is to deny other access.

You apply access lists defined with the access-list additional-zones command to outgoing routing updates and GZL filters (using the appletalk distribute-list out, and appletalk getzonelist-filter commands). You cannot apply them to data-packet filters (using the appletalk access-group command) or to incoming routing update filters (using the appletalk distribute-list in command).

Example

The following example creates an access list based on AppleTalk zones:

access-list 610 deny zone Twilight
access-list 610 permit additional-zones

Related Commands

access-list includes
access-list network
access-list other-access
access-list within
access-list zone
appletalk access-group
appletalk distribute-list in
appletalk distribute-list out
appletalk getzonelist-filter
appletalk permit-partial-zones

access-list cable-range

To define an AppleTalk access list for a cable range (for extended networks only), use the access-list cable-range global configuration command. To remove an access list, use the no form of this command.

access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} cable-range cable-range
no access-list access-list-number [{deny | permit} cable-range cable-range]

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.

deny

Denies access if the conditions are matched.

permit

Permits access if the conditions are matched.

cable-range

Cable range value. The argument specifies the start and end of the cable range, separated by a hyphen. These values are decimal numbers from 1 to 65279. The starting network number must be less than or equal to the ending network number.


Default

No access lists are predefined.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

When used as a routing update filter, the access-list cable-range command affects matching on extended networks only. The conditions defined by this access list are used only when a cable range in a routing update exactly matches that specified in the access-list cable-range command. The conditions are never used to match a network number (for a nonextended network).

When used as a data-packet filter, the access-list cable-range command affects matching on any type of network number. The conditions defined by this access list are used only when the packet's source network lies in the range defined by the access list.

You apply access lists defined with the access-list cable-range command to data-packet and routing-update filters (using the appletalk access-group, appletalk distribute-list in, and appletalk distribute-list out). You cannot apply them to GetZoneList (GZL) filters (using the appletalk getzonelist-filter command).

To delete an access list, specify the minimum number of keywords and arguments needed to delete the proper access list. For example, to delete the entire access list, use the following command:

no access-list access-list-number

To delete the access list for a specific network, use the following command:

no access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} cable-range cable-range

Priority queuing for AppleTalk operates on the destination network number, not the source network number.

Example

The following access list forwards all packets except those destined to cable range 10 to 20:

access-list 600 deny cable-range 10-20
access-list 600 permit other-access

access-list includes

To define an AppleTalk access list that overlaps any part of a range of network numbers or cable ranges (for both extended and nonextended networks), use the access-list includes global configuration command. To remove an access list, use the no form of this command.

access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} includes cable-range
no access-list access-list-number [{deny | permit} includes cable-range]

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.

deny

Denies access if the conditions are matched.

permit

Permits access if the conditions are matched.

cable-range

Cable range or network number. The argument specifies the start and end of the cable range, separated by a hyphen. These values are decimal numbers from 1 to 65279. The starting network number must be less than or equal to the ending network number. To specify a network number, set the starting and ending network numbers to the same value.


Default

No access lists are predefined.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

When used as a routing update filter, the access-list includes command affects matching on extended and nonextended AppleTalk networks. The conditions defined by this access list are used when a cable range or network number overlaps, either partially or completely, one (or more) of those specified in the access-list includes command.

When used as a data-packet filter, the conditions defined by this access list are used when the packet's source network lies in the range defined in the access-list includes command.

You apply access lists defined with the access-list includes command to data-packet and routing-update filters (using the appletalk access-group, appletalk distribute-list in, and appletalk distribute-list out). You cannot apply them to GZL filters (using the appletalk getzonelist-filter command).

To delete an access list, specify the minimum number of keywords and arguments needed to delete the proper access list. For example, to delete the entire access list, use the following command:

no access-list access-list-number

To delete the access list for a specific network, use the following command:

no access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} includes cable-range

Priority queuing for AppleTalk operates on the destination network number, not the source network number.

Example

The following example defines an access list that permits access to any network or cable range that overlaps any part of the range 10 to 20. This means, for example, that cable ranges 13 to 16 and 17 to 25 will be permitted. This access list also permits all other ranges.

access-list 600 permit includes 10-20
access-list 600 permit other-access

access-list nbp

To define an AppleTalk access-list entry for a particular NBP named entity (object), class of NBP named entities (type), or NBP named entities belonging to a specific area (zone), use the access-list nbp global configuration command. To remove an NBP access-list entry from the access list, use the no form of this command.

access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} nbp seq {type | object | zone} string
no access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} nbp seq {type | object | zone} string

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.

deny

Denies access if conditions are matched.

permit

Permits access if conditions are matched.

seq

A number used to tie together two or three portions of an NBP name tuple and to keep track of the number of access-list nbp entries in an access list. Each command entry must have a sequence number.

type

Characterizes string as the portion of an NBP name that identifies a category or type of named entity.

object

Characterizes string as the portion of an NBP name that identifies a particular object or named entity.

zone

Characterizes string as the portion of an NBP name that identifies an AppleTalk zone.

string

A portion of an NBP name identifying the type, object, or zone of a named entity. The name string can be up to 32 characters long and it can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, type a colon followed by two hexadecimal characters. For an NBP name with a leading space, enter the first character as the special sequence :20.


Default

No particular access-list entry for an NBP named entity is defined and the default filtering specified by the access-list other-nbps command takes effect.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The access-list nbp command defines the action to take for filtering NBP packets from a particular type (class of named entities), object (particular named entity), or zone (AppleTalk zone in which named entities reside) superceding the default action for NBP packets from all named entities specified by the access-list other-nbps command. For each command that you enter, you must specify a sequence number. The sequence number serves two purposes. Its principal purpose is to allow you to associate two or three portions of an NBP three-part name, referred to as an NBP tuple. To do this, you enter two or three commands having the same sequence number but each specifying a different keyword and NBP name portion: type, object, or zone. The same sequence number binds them together. This provides you with the ability to restrict forwarding of NBP packets at any level, down to a single named entity.

The second purpose of the sequence number is to allow you to keep track of the number of access-list nbp entries you have made. You must enter a sequence number even if you do not use it to associate portions of an NBP name.

Examples

The following example adds entries to access-list number 607 to allow forwarding of NBP packets from specific sources and deny forwarding of NBP packets from all other sources. The first command adds an entry that allows NBP packets from all printers of type LaserWriter. The second command adds an entry that allows NBP packets from all AppleTalk file servers of type AFPServer. The third command adds an entry that allows NBP packets from all applications called HotShotPaint. For example, there might be an application with a zone name of Accounting and an application with a zone name of engineering, both having the object name of HotShotPaint. NBP packets forwarded from both applications will be allowed.

The final access-list other-nbps command denies forwarding of NBP packets from all other sources.

access-list 607 permit nbp 1 type LaserWriter
access-list 607 permit nbp 2 type AFPServer 
access-list 607 permit nbp 3 object HotShotPaint
access-list 607 deny other-nbps 

The following example adds entries to access-list number 608 to deny forwarding of NBP packets from two specific servers whose fully-qualified NBP names are specified. It permits forwarding of NBP packets from all other sources.

access-list 608 deny nbp 1 object ServerA
access-list 608 deny nbp 1 type AFPServer
access-list 608 deny nbp 1 zone Bld3
access-list 608 deny nbp 2 object ServerB
access-list 608 deny nbp 2 type AFPServer
access-list 608 deny nbp 2 zone Bld3
access-list 608 permit other-nbps 
access-list 608 permit other-access

access-list network

To define an AppleTalk access list for a single network number (that is, for a nonextended network), use the access-list network global configuration command. To remove an access list, use the no form of this command.

access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} network network
no access-list access-list-number [{deny | permit} network network]

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.

deny

Denies access if the conditions are matched.

permit

Permits access if the conditions are matched.

network

AppleTalk network number.


Default

No access lists are predefined.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

When used as a routing-update filter, the access-list network command affects matching on nonextended networks only. The conditions defined by this access list are used only when the a nonextended number in a routing update matches a network number specified in one of the access-list network commands. The conditions are never used to match a cable range (for an extended network) even if the cable range has the same starting and ending number.

When used as a data-packet filter, the conditions defined by this access list are used only when the packet's source network matches the network number specified in the access-list network command.

You apply access lists defined with the access-list network command to data-packet and routing-update filters (using the appletalk access-group, appletalk distribute-list in, and appletalk distribute-list out). You cannot apply them to GZL filters (using the appletalk getzonelist-filter command).

In software releases before 9.0, the syntax of this command was access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} network. The current version of the software is still able to interpret commands in this format if it finds them in a configuration or boot file. However, it is recommended that you update the commands in your configuration or boot files to match the current syntax.

Use the no access-list command with the access-list-number argument only to remove an entire access list from the configuration. Specify the optional arguments to remove a particular clause.

To delete an access list, specify the minimum number of keywords and arguments needed to delete the proper access list. For example, to delete the entire access list, use the following command:

no access-list access-list-number

To delete the access list for a specific network, use the following command:

no access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} network network

Priority queuing for AppleTalk operates on the destination network number, not the source network number.

Example

The following example defines an access list that forwards all packets except those destined for networks 1 and 2:

access-list 650 deny network 1
access-list 650 deny network 2
access-list 650 permit other-access

access-list other-access

To define the default action to take for access checks that apply to networks or cable ranges, use the access-list other-access global configuration command.

access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} other-access

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.

deny

Denies access if the conditions are matched.

permit

Permits access if the conditions are matched.


Default

No access lists are predefined.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The access-list other-access command defines the action to take for access checks not explicitly defined with an access-list network, access-list cable-range, access-list includes, or access-list within command. If you do not specify this command, the default action is to deny other access.

You apply access lists defined with the access-list other-access command to data-packet and routing-update filters (using the appletalk access-group, appletalk distribute-list in, and appletalk distribute-list out). You cannot apply them to GZL filters (using the appletalk getzonelist-filter command).

In software releases before 9.0, the syntax of this command was access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} -1. The current version of the software is still able to interpret commands in this format if it finds them in a configuration or boot file. However, it is recommended that you update the commands in your configuration or boot files to match the current syntax.

Priority queuing for AppleTalk operates on the destination network number, not the source network number.

Example

The following example defines an access list that forwards all packets except those destined for networks 1 and 2:

access-list 650 deny network 1
access-list 650 deny network 2
access-list 650 permit other-access

access-list other-nbps

To define the default action to take for access checks that apply to NBP packets from named entities not otherwise explicitly denied or permitted, use the access-list other-nbps global configuration command.

access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} other-nbps
no access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} other-nbps

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list for AppleTalk. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.

deny

Denies access if conditions are matched.

permit

Permits access if conditions are matched.


Default

Access is denied.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The access-list other-nbps command defines the action to take for filtering of NBP packets from named entities not explicitly defined by an access-list nbp command. It allows you to implement the default AppleTalk network security state at the named entity level. Any access-list nbp commands you enter affect a particular named entity object, class of named entities, or all named entities within a zone. This command sets the security state for all other NBP named entities. If you do not specify this command, the default action is to deny access.

You can use this command to create an entry in an access list before or after you issue access-list nbp commands. The order of the command in the access list is irrelevant.

Examples

The following example permits forwarding of all NBP packets from all sources except AppleTalk file servers of type AFPServer:

access-list 607 deny nbp 2 type AFPServer
access-list 607 permit other-nbps

access-list within

To define an AppleTalk access list for an extended or a nonextended network whose network number or cable range is included entirely within the specified cable range, use the access-list within global configuration command. To remove this access list, use the no form of this command.

access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} within cable-range
no access-list access-list-number [{deny | permit} within cable-range]

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.

deny

Denies access if the conditions are matched.

permit

Permits access if the conditions are matched.

cable-range

Cable range or network number. The argument specifies the start and end of the cable range, separated by a hyphen. These values are decimal numbers from 1 to 65279. The starting network number must be less than or equal to the ending network number. To specify a network number, set the starting and ending network numbers to the same value.


Default

No access lists are predefined.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

When used as a routing update filter, the access-list within command affects matching on extended and nonextended AppleTalk networks. The conditions defined by this access list are used when a cable range or network number overlaps, either partially or completely, one (or more) of those specified in the access-list within command.

When used as a data-packet filter, the conditions defined by this access list are used when the packet's source network lies in the range defined in the access-list within command.

You apply access lists defined with the access-list within command to data-packet and routing-update (using the appletalk access-group, appletalk distribute-list in, and appletalk distribute-list out). You cannot apply them to GZL filters (using the appletalk getzonelist-filter command).

To delete an access list, specify the minimum number of keywords and arguments needed to delete the proper access list. For example, to delete the entire access list, use the following command:

no access-list access-list-number

To delete the access list for a specific network, use the following command:

no access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} within cable-range

Priority queuing for AppleTalk operates on the destination network number, not the source network number.

Example

The following example defines an access list that permits access to any network or cable range that is completely included in the range 10 to 20. This means, for example, that cable range 13 to 16 will be permitted, but cable range 17 to 25 will not be. The second line of the access list permits all other packets.

access-list 600 permit within 10-20
access-list 600 permit other-access

To define an AppleTalk access list that applies to a zone, use the access-list zone global configuration command. To remove an access list, use the no form of this command.

access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} zone zone-name
no access-list access-list-number [{deny | permit} zone zone-name]

Syntax Description

access-list number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.

deny

Denies access if the conditions are matched.

permit

Permits access if the conditions are matched.

zone-name

Name of the zone. The name can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, type a colon followed by two hexadecimal characters. For zone names with a leading space character, enter the first character as the special sequence :20.


Default

No access lists are predefined.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

You apply access lists defined with the access-list zones command to outgoing routing update and GZL filters (using the appletalk distribute-list out, and appletalk getzonelist-filter commands). You cannot apply them to data-packet filters (using the appletalk access-group command) or to incoming routing update filters (using the appletalk distribute-list in command).

To delete an access list, specify the minimum number of keywords and arguments needed to delete the proper access list. For example, to delete the entire access list, use the following command:

no access-list access-list-number

To delete the access list for a specific network, use the following command:

no access-list access-list-number {deny | permit} zone zone-name

Use the access-list additional-zones command to define the action to take for access checks not explicitly defined with the access-list zone command.

Example

The following example creates an access list based on AppleTalk zones:

access-list 610 deny zone Twilight
access-list 610 permit additional-zones

appletalk access-group

To assign an access list to an interface, use the appletalk access-group interface configuration command. To remove the access list use the no form of this command.

appletalk access-group access-list-number
no appletalk access-group [access-list-number]

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.


Default

No access lists are predefined.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

The appletalk access-group command applies data-packets filter to an interface. These filters check data packets being sent out an interface. If the packets' source network has access denied, these packets are not transmitted but rather are discarded.

Data-packet filters use access lists that define conditions for networks and cable ranges only. They ignore any zone information that may be in the access list.

When you apply a data-packet filter to an interface, you should ensure that all networks or cable ranges within a zone are governed by the same filters.

Example

The following example applies access list 601 to Ethernet interface 0:

access-list 601 deny cable-range 1-10
access-list 601 permit other-access
interface ethernet 0
appletalk access-group 601

appletalk address

To enable nonextended AppleTalk routing on an interface, use the appletalk address interface configuration command. To disable nonextended AppleTalk routing, use the no form of this command.

appletalk address network.node
no appletalk address [network.node]

Syntax Description

network.node

AppleTalk network address assigned to the interface. The argument network is the 16-bit network number in the range 0 to 65279. The argument node is the 8-bit node number in the range 0 to 254. Both numbers are decimal.


Default

Disabled

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

You must enable routing on the interface before assigning zone names.

Specifying an address of 0.0, or 0.node places the interface into discovery mode. When in this mode, the access server attempts to determine network address information from another router or access server on the network. You also can enable discovery mode with the appletalk discovery command. Discovery mode does not run over serial lines.

Example

The following example enables nonextended AppleTalk routing on Ethernet interface 0:

appletalk routing
interface ethernet 0
appletalk address 1.129

Related Commands

access-list cable-range
appletalk discovery

appletalk alternate-addressing

To display network numbers in a two-octet format, use the appletalk alternate-addressing global configuration command. To return to displaying network numbers in the format network.node, use the no form of this command.

appletalk alternate-addressing
no appletalk alternate-addressing

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Addresses are displayed in network.node format.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The appletalk alternate-addressing command displays cable ranges in the alternate format wherever applicable. This format consists of printing the upper and lower bytes of a network number as 8-bit decimal values separated by a decimal point. For example, the cable range 511-512 would be printed as 1.255-2.0.

Example

The following example enables the display of network numbers in a two-octet format:

appletalk arp interval

To specify the time interval between the retransmission of Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) packets, use the appletalk arp interval global configuration command. To restore both default intervals, use the no form of this command.

appletalk arp [probe | request] interval interval
no appletalk arp [probe | request] interval interval

Syntax Description

probe

(Optional) Indicates that the interval specified is to be used with AppleTalk Address Resolution Protocol (AARP) requests that are trying to determined the address of the local router when the access server is being configured. If you omit probe and request, probe is the default.

request

(Optional) Indicates that the interval specified is to be used when AARP is attempting to determine the hardware address of another node so that AARP can deliver a packet.

interval

Interval, in milliseconds, between AARP transmissions. The minimum value is 33 milliseconds. When used with the probe keyword, the default interval is 200 milliseconds. When used with the request keyword, the default interval is 1000 milliseconds.


Default

If you omit all keywords, probe is the default.

probe—200 milliseconds
request—1000 milliseconds

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The time interval you specify takes effect immediately.

Lengthening the interval between AARP transmissions permits responses from devices that respond slowly, such as printers and overloaded file servers, to be received.

AARP uses the appletalk arp probe interval value when obtaining the address of the local access server. This is done when the access server is being configured. You should not change the default value of this interval unless absolutely necessary, because this value directly modifies the AppleTalk dynamic node assignment algorithm.

AARP uses the appletalk arp request interval value when attempting to determine the hardware address of another node so that it can deliver a packet. You can change this interval as desired, although the default value is optimal for most sites.

The no appletalk arp command restores both the probe and request intervals specified in the appletalk arp interval and appletalk arp retransmit-count commands to their default values.

Example

In the following example, the AppleTalk ARP retry interval is lengthened to 2000 milliseconds:

appletalk arp request interval 2000

appletalk arp retransmit-count

To specify the number of AARP probe or request transmissions, use the appletalk arp retransmit-count global configuration command. To restore both default values, use the no form of this command.

appletalk arp [probe | request] retransmit-count number
no appletalk arp [probe | request] retransmit-count number

Syntax Description

probe

(Optional) Indicates that the number specified is to be used with AARP requests that are trying to determined the address of the local router when the access server is being configured. If you omit probe and request, probe is the default.

request

(Optional) Indicates that the number specified is to be used when AARP is attempting to determine the hardware address of another node so that AARP can deliver a packet.

number

Number of AARP retransmissions that will occur. The minimum number is 1. When used with the probe keyword, the default value is 10 retransmissions. When used with the request keyword, the default value is 5 retransmissions. Specifying 0 selects the default value.


Default

If you omit the keyword, probe is the default.

probe—10
request—5

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The value you specify takes effect immediately.

Increasing the number of retransmissions permits responses from devices that respond slowly, such as printers and overloaded file servers, to be received.

AARP uses the appletalk arp probe retransmit-count value when obtaining the address of the local router. This is done when the access server is being configured. You should not change the default value unless absolutely necessary, because this value directly modifies the AppleTalk dynamic node assignment algorithm.

AARP uses the appletalk arp request retransmit-count value when attempting to determine the hardware address of another node so that it can deliver a packet. You can change this interval as desired, although the default value is optimal for most sites.

The no appletalk arp command restores both the probe and request intervals specified in the appletalk arp interval and appletalk arp retransmit-count commands to their default values.

Example

The following example specifies an AARP retransmission count of 10 for AARP packets that are requesting the hardware address of another node on the network:

appletalk arp request retransmit-count 10

appletalk arp-timeout

To specify the interval at which entries are aged out of the ARP table, use the appletalk arp-timeout interface configuration command. To return to the default timeout, use the no form of this command.

appletalk arp-timeout interval
no appletalk arp-timeout [interval]

Syntax Description

interval

Time, in minutes, after which an entry is removed from the AppleTalk ARP table. The default is 240 minutes, or 4 hours.


Default

240 minutes (4 hours)

appletalk aurp tickle-time

To set the AURP last-heard-from timer value, use the appletalk aurp tickle-time interface configuration command. To return to the default last-heard-from timer value, use the no form of this command.

appletalk aurp tickle-time seconds
no appletalk aurp tickle-time [seconds]

Syntax Description

seconds

Time-out value, in seconds. This value can be a number in the range 30 to infinity. The default is 90 seconds.


Default

90 seconds

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

If the tunnel peer has not been heard from with the time specified by the least-heard-from timer value, the access server sends tickle packets to check that the tunnel peer is still up.

You can use this command only on tunnel interfaces.

Example

The following example changes the AURP last-heard-from timer value on tunnel interface 0 to 120 seconds:

interface tunnel 0
appletalk aurp tickle-time 120

Related Command

appletalk aurp update-interval

To set the minimum interval between AURP routing updates, use the appletalk aurp update-interval global configuration command. To return to the default interval, use the no form of this command.

appletalk aurp update-interval seconds
no appletalk aurp update-interval [seconds]

Syntax Description

seconds

AURP routing update interval, in seconds. This interval must be a multiple of 10. The default is 30 seconds.


Default

30 seconds

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The AURP routing update interval applies only to tunnel interfaces.

Example

The following example changes the AURP routing update interval on tunnel interface 0 to 40 seconds:

interface tunnel 0
appletalk aurp update-interval 40

Related Command

appletalk cable-range

To enable an extended AppleTalk network, use the appletalk cable-range interface configuration command. To disable an extended AppleTalk network, use the no form of this command.

appletalk cable-range cable-range [network.node]
no appletalk cable-range cable-range [network.node]

Syntax Description

cable-range

Cable range value. The argument specifies the start and end of the cable range, separated by a hyphen. These values are decimal number from 0 to 65279. The starting network number must be less than or equal to the ending network number.

network.node

(Optional) Suggested AppleTalk address for the interface. The argument network is the 16-bit network number, and the argument node is the 8-bit node number. Both numbers are decimal. The suggested network number must fall within the specified range of network numbers.


Default

Disabled

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

You must enable routing on the interface before assigning zone names.

Specifying a cable range value of 0-0 places the interface into discovery mode. When in this mode, the access server attempts to determine cable range information from another router or access server on the network. You also can enable discovery mode with the appletalk discovery command. Discovery mode does not run over serial lines.

Example

The following example assigns a cable range of 3 to 3 to the interface:

interface ethernet 0
appletalk cable-range 3-3

Related Commands

appletalk address
appletalk discovery
appletalk zone

appletalk checksum

To enable the generation and verification of checksums for all AppleTalk packets (except routed packets), use the appletalk checksum global configuration command. To disable checksum generation and verification, use the no form of this command.

appletalk checksum
no appletalk checksum

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Enabled

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

When the appletalk checksum command is enabled, the access server discards incoming DDP packets when the checksum is nonzero and is incorrect, and when the access server is the final destination for the packet.

You might want to disable checksum generation and verification if you have very early devices, such as LaserWriter printers, that cannot receive packets that contain checksums.

Our routers and access servers do not check checksums on routed packets, thereby eliminating the need to disable checksum to allow operation of some networking applications.

Example

The following example disables the generation and verification of checksums:

no appletalk checksum

appletalk client-mode

To allow users to access an AppleTalk zone when dialing into an asychronous line on the access server, use the interface configuration async command appletalk client-mode. Use the no form of the command to disable this configuration.

appletalk client-mode
no appletalk client-mode

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Client mode is disabled.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

This command allows an asynchronous interface to be used by a remote client to access one or more AppleTalk zones, use networked peripherals, and share files with other Macintosh users.

Before a client can access an AppleTalk zone on the remote network, you must first define the interface as async, the encapsulation as PPP, and create an internal network for the Macintosh client by using the appletalk virtual-net command.

This configuration does not support routing.

Example

The following example allows a user to access AppleTalk functionality on an asynchronous line using PPP:

appletalk client-mode

appletalk discovery

To place an interface into discovery mode, use the appletalk discovery interface configuration command. To disable discovery mode, use the no form of this command.

appletalk discovery
no appletalk discovery

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Discovery mode is disabled.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

If an interface is connected to a network that has at least one other operational AppleTalk router, you can dynamically configure the interface using discovery mode. In discovery mode, an interface acquires network address information about the attached network from an operational router and then uses this information to configure itself.

If you enable discovery mode on an interface, then when the access server is starting up, that interface must acquire information to configure itself from another operational router on the attached network. If no operational router is present on the connected network, the interface will not start up.

If you do not enable discovery mode, then when the access server is starting up, the interface must acquire its configuration from memory. If the stored configuration is not complete, the interface will not start up. If there is another operational router on the connected network, the access server will verify the interface's stored configuration with that router. If there is any discrepancy, the interface will not start up. If there are no neighboring operational routers, the access server will assume the interface's stored configuration is correct and will start up.

Once an interface is operational, it can seed the configurations of other routers on the connected network regardless of whether you have enabled discovery mode on any of the routers.

If you enable appletalk discovery and the interface is restarted, another operational router must still be present on the directly connected network in order for the interface to start up.

It is not advisable to have all routers on a network configured with discovery mode enabled. If all routers were to restart simultaneously (for instance, after a power failure), the network would become inaccessible until at least one router were restarted with discovery mode disabled.

You also can enable discovery mode by specifying an address of 0.0. in the appletalk address command or a cable range of 0-0 in the appletalk cable-range command.

Discovery mode is useful when you are changing a network configuration or when you are adding an access server to an existing network.

Discovery mode does not run over serial lines.

Use the no appletalk discovery command to disable discovery mode. If the interface is not operational when you issue this command (that is, if you have not issued an appletalk zone command on the interface), you must configure the zone name next. If the interface is operational when you issue the no appletalk discovery command, you can save the current configuration (in running memory) in nonvolatile memory by issuing the copy running-config startup-config EXEC command.

Example

The following example enables discovery mode on Ethernet interface 0:

interface ethernet 0
appletalk discovery

appletalk distribute-list in

To filter routing updates received from other routers over a specified interface, use the appletalk distribute-list in interface configuration command. To remove the routing table update filter, use the no form of this command.

appletalk distribute-list access-list-number in
no appletalk distribute-list [access-list-number in]

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.


Default

No routing filters are preconfigured.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

The appletalk distribute-list in command controls which networks and cable ranges in routing updates will be entered into the local routing table.

Filters for incoming routing updates use access lists that define conditions for networks and cable ranges only. They cannot use access lists that define conditions for zones. All zone information in an access list assigned to the interface with the appletalk distribute-list in command is ignored.

An input distribution list filters network numbers received in an incoming routing update. When AppleTalk routing updates are received on the specified interface, each network number and cable range in the update is checked against the access list. Only network numbers and cable ranges that are permitted by the access list are inserted into the access server's AppleTalk routing table.

Example

The following example prevents the access server from accepting routing table updates received from network 10 and on Ethernet interface 3:

access-list 601 deny network 10
access-list 601 permit other-access
interface ethernet 3
appletalk distribute-list 601 in

Related Commands

appletalk distribute-list out

To filter routing updates transmitted to other routers, use the appletalk distribute-list out interface configuration command. To remove the routing table update filter, use the no form of this command.

appletalk distribute-list access-list-number out
no appletalk distribute-list [access-list-number out]

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.


Default

No routing filters are preconfigured.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

The appletalk distribute-list out command controls which network numbers and cable ranges are included in routing updates and which zones the local router includes in its GetZoneList replies.

When an AppleTalk routing update is generated on the specified interface, each network number and cable range in the routing table is checked against the access list. If an undefined access list is used, all network numbers and cable ranges are added to the routing update. Otherwise, if an access list is defined, only network numbers and cable ranges that satisfy the following conditions are added to the routing update:

The network number or cable range is not explicitly or implicitly denied.

The network number or cable range is not a member of a zone that is explicitly or implicitly denied.

If appletalk permit-partial-zones is disabled (the default), the network number or cable range is not a member of a zone that is partially obscured.

A zone is considered partially obscured when one or more network numbers or cable ranges that are members of the zone is explicitly or implicitly denied.

When a ZIP GetZoneList reply is generated, only zones that satisfy the following conditions are included:

If appletalk permit-partial-zones is enabled, at least one network number or cable range that is a member of the zone is explicitly or implicitly permitted.

If appletalk permit-partial-zones is disabled, all network numbers or cable ranges are explicitly or implicitly permitted.

The zone is explicitly or implicitly permitted.

Example

The following example prevents routing updates sent on Ethernet 0 from mentioning any networks in zone Admin:

access-list 601 deny zone Admin
access-list 601 permit other-access
interface ethernet 0
appletalk distribute-list 601 out

appletalk domain-group

To assign a predefined domain number to an interface, use the appletalk domain-group interface configuration command. To remove an interface from a domain, use the no form of this command.

appletalk domain-group domain-number
no appletalk domain-group [domain-number]

Syntax Description

domain-number

Number of an AppleTalk domain. It can be a decimal integer from 1 through 1000000.


Default

No domain number is assigned to the interface.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

Before you can assign a domain number to an interface, you must create a domain with that domain number using the appletalk domain name global configuration command.

One or more interfaces on a router can be members of the same domain. However, a given interface can be in only one domain.

After you assign AppleTalk interenterprise features to an AppleTalk domain, you can attribute those features to a tunnel interface configured for AURP by assigning the AppleTalk domain-group number to the tunnel interface.

Examples

The following example assigns domain group 1 to Ethernet interface 0:

interface ethernet 0
appletalk domain-group 1

The following example assigns domain group 1 to tunnel interface 2. Assuming that domain group 1 is configured for AppleTalk interenterprise and that tunnel interface 2 is configured for AURP, any features configured for domain group 1 are ascribed to AURP on tunnel interface 2.

interface tunnel 2

appletalk domain hop-reduction

To reduce the hop-count value in packets traveling between segments of a domains, use the appletalk domain hop-reduction global configuration command. To disable the reduction of hop-count values, use the no form of this command.

appletalk domain domain-number hop-reduction
no appletalk domain domain-number hop-reduction

Syntax Description

domain-number

Number of an AppleTalk domain. It can be a decimal integer from 1 through 1000000.


Default

The hop count is set to 1 each time a packet passes through the access server.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

Before you can specify the appletalk domain hop-reduction global configuration command, you must have created a domain with that domain number using the appletalk domain name global configuration command.

DDP and RTMP both impose a 15-hop limit when forwarding packets. A packet ages out and is no longer forwarded when its hop count reaches 16. To overcome RTMP's 15-hop limit, the domain access server represents all networks accessible to routers on its local network as one hop away. This allows access servers to maintain and send routing information about networks beyond the 15-hop limit and achieve full connectivity.

When you enable hop-count reduction, the hop count in a packet is set to 1 as it passes from one domain to another. For example, if the hop count was 8 when the packet left one domain, its hop count is 1 when it enters the next segment of the domain.

Hop reduction is performed only on packets traveling to and from interfaces that are configured for AppleTalk Enhanced IGRP.

Example

The following example enables hop-count reduction for domain number 1:

appletalk domain 1 name Delta
appletalk domain 1 hop-reduction

Related Command

no appletalk domain domain-number name domain-name

Syntax Description

domain-number

Number of an AppleTalk domain. It can be a decimal integer from 1 through 1000000.

domain-name

Name of an AppleTalk domain. The name must be unique across the AppleTalk internetwork. It can be up to 32 characters long and can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, type a colon followed by two hexadecimal characters. For zone names with a leading space character, enter the first character as the special sequence :20.


Default

No domain is created.

appletalk domain remap-range

To remap ranges of AppleTalk network numbers or cable ranges between two segments of a domain, use the appletalk domain remap-range global configuration command. To disable remapping, use the no form of this command.

appletalk domain domain-number remap-range {in | out} start-range-end-range
no appletalk domain domain-number remap-range {in | out} [start-range-end-range]

Syntax Description

domain-number

Number of an AppleTalk domain. It can be a decimal integer from 1 through 1000000.

in

Specifies that the remapping is performed on inbound packets, that is, on packets arriving at the domain router. All network numbers or cable ranges coming from the domain are remapped into the specified range.

out

Specifies that the remapping is performed on outbound packets, that is, on packets exiting from the domain router. All network numbers or cable ranges going to the domain are remapped into the specified range.

start-range

First AppleTalk network number or beginning of cable range to remap. The number must be immediately followed by a hyphen.

end-range

Last AppleTalk network number or end of cable range to remap. The number must be immediately preceded by a hyphen.


Default

No remapping is performed.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

Before you can specify the appletalk domain remap-range command, you must create a domain with that domain number using the appletalk domain name global configuration command.

Ensure that the domain range you specify does not overlap any network addresses or cable ranges that already exist in the internetwork.

Each domain can have two domain mapping ranges to which to remap all incoming or outgoing network numbers or cable ranges.

Example

The following example remaps all network addresses and cable ranges for packets inbound from domain 1 into the address range 1000 to 1999. It also remaps packets inbound from domain 2.

appletalk domain 1 name Delta
appletalk domain 2 name Echo
appletalk domain 1 remap-range in 10000-10999 
appletalk domain 2 remap-range in 20000-20999

appletalk eigrp-splithorizon

To configure split horizon, use the appletalk eigrp-splithorizon interface configuration command. To disable split horizon, use the no form of this command.

appletalk eigrp-splithorizon
no appletalk eigrp-splithorizon

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Enabled

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

If you enable split horizon on an interface, AppleTalk Enhanced IGRP update and query packets are not sent if this interface is the next hop to that destination. This reduces the number of Enhanced IGRP packets of the network.

Split horizon blocks information about routes from being advertised by a router or access server out any interface from which that information originated. This behavior usually optimizes communication among multiple access servers, particularly when links are broken. However, with nonbroadcast networks, such as Frame Relay and SMDS, situations can arise for which this behavior is less than ideal. For these situations, you may wish to disable split horizon.

Example

The following example disables split horizon on serial interface 0:

interface serial 0
no appletalk eigrp-splithorizon

appletalk eigrp-timers

To configure the AppleTalk Enhanced IGRP hello packet interval and the route hold time, use the appletalk eigrp-timers interface configuration command. To return to the default values for these timers, use the no form of this command.

appletalk eigrp-timers hello-interval hold-time
no appletalk eigrp-timers hello-interval hold-time

Syntax Description

hello-interval

Interval between hello packets, in seconds. The default interval is 5 seconds. It can be a maximum of 30 seconds.

hold-time

Hold time, in seconds. The hold time is advertised in hello packets and indicates to neighbors the length of time they should consider the sender valid. The hold time can be in the range of 15 to 90 seconds. The default is 45 seconds.


Default

hello-interval: 5 seconds
hold-time: 45 seconds

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

If the current value for the hold time is less than two times the hello interval, the hold time is reset to three time the hello interval.

If an access server does not receive a hello packet within the specified hold time, routes through the access server are considered available.

Increasing the hold time delays route convergence across the network.


Note   Do not adjust the hold time without advising technical support.


Example

The following example changes the hello interval to 10 seconds:

interface ethernet 0
appletalk eigrp-timers 10 45

appletalk free-trade-zone

To establish a free-trade zone, use the appletalk free-trade-zone interface configuration command. To disable a free-trade zone, use the no form of this command.

appletalk free-trade-zone
no appletalk free-trade-zone

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Free-trade zones are not preconfigured.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

A free-trade zone is a part of an AppleTalk internet that is accessible by two other parts of the internet, neither of which can access the other. You might want to create a free-trade zone to allow the exchange of information between two organizations that otherwise want to keep their internets isolated from each other or that do not have physical connectivity with one another.

You apply the appletalk free-trade-zone command to each interface attached to the common-access network. This command has the following effect on the interface:

All incoming RTMP updates are ignored.

All outgoing RTMP updates contain no information.

NBP conversion of BrRq packets to FwdReq packets is not performed.

The GZL for free-trade zone nodes will be empty.

Example

The following example establishes a free-trade zone on Ethernet interface 0:

interface ethernet 0
appletalk cable-range 5-5
appletalk zone FreeAccessZone
appletalk free-trade-zone

appletalk getzonelist-filter

To filter GetZoneList (GZL) replies, use the appletalk getzonelist-filter interface configuration command. To remove a filter, use the no form of this command.

appletalk getzonelist-filter access-list-number
no appletalk getzonelist-filter [access-list-number]

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.


Default

No filters are preconfigured.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

GZL filters define conditions for zones only. They cannot use access lists that define conditions for network numbers or cable ranges. All network number and cable range information in the access list assigned to an interface with the appletalk getzonelist-filter command is ignored.

Using a GZL filter is not a complete replacement for anonymous network numbers. In order to prevent users from seeing a zone, all routers must implement the GZL filter. If there are any routers from other vendors on the network, the GZL filter will not have a consistent effect.

The Macintosh Chooser uses ZIP GZL requests to compile a list of zones from which the user can select services. Any access server on the same network as the Macintosh can respond to these requests with a GZL reply. You can create a GZL filter on the access server to control which zones the access server mentions in its GZL replies. This has the effect of controlling the list of zones that are displayed by the Chooser.

When defining GZL filters, you should ensure that all routers on the same internetwork filter GZL reply identically. Otherwise, the Chooser will list different zone depending upon which router responded to the request. Also, inconsistent filters can result in zones appearing and disappearing every few seconds when the user remains in the Chooser. Because of these inconsistencies, you should normally use the appletalk getzonelist-filter command only when all routers in the internetwork are our routers or access servers, unless the other vendors' routers have a similar feature.

Replies to GZL requests are also filtered by any appletalk distribute-list out filter that has been applied to the same interface. You need to specify an appletalk getzonelist-filter command only if you want additional filtering to be applied to GZL replies. This filter is rarely needed except to eliminate zones that do not contain user services.

Example

The following example does not include the zone Engineering in GZL replies sent out Ethernet interface 0:

access-list 600 deny zone Engineering
interface Ethernet 0
appletalk getzonelist-filter 600

appletalk glean-packets

To derive AARP table entries from incoming packets, use the appletalk glean-packets interface configuration command. To disable this function, use the no form of this command.

appletalk glean-packets
no appletalk glean-packets

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Enabled

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

The access server automatically derives AARP table entries from incoming packets. This process is referred to as "gleaning." Gleaning speeds up the process of populating the AARP table.

Our implementation of AppleTalk does not forward packets with local source and destination network addresses. This does not conform with the definition of AppleTalk in Apple Computer's Inside AppleTalk publication. However, this is designed to prevent any possible corruption of the AARP table in any AppleTalk node that is performing MAC-address gleaning.

Example

The following example disables the building of the AARP table using information derived from incoming packets:

interface ethernet 0
appletalk address 33
no appletalk glean-packets

appletalk ignore-verify-errors

To allow an access server to start functioning even if the network is misconfigured, use the appletalk ignore-verify-errors global configuration command. To disable this function, use the no form of this command.

appletalk ignore-verify-errors
no appletalk ignore-verify-errors

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Disabled

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

Use this command only under the guidance of a customer engineer or other service representative. an access server that starts routing in a misconfigured network will serve only to make a bad situation worse; it will not correct other misconfigured routers.

Example

The following example allows an access server to start functioning without verifying network misconfiguration:

no appletalk ignore-verify-errors 0

appletalk iptalk

To enable IPTalk encapsulation on an interface that already has a configured IP address, use the appletalk iptalk interface configuration command. To disable IPTalk encapsulation, use the no form of this command.

Syntax Description

network.node

AppleTalk network address assigned to the interface. The argument network is the 16-bit network number, and the argument node is the 8-bit node number. Both numbers are decimal.

zone

Name of the zone for the connected AppleTalk network.


Default

Disabled

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

Use the appletalk iptalk interface subcommand to enable IPTalk encapsulation on an interface that already has a configured IP address. This command encapsulates AppleTalk in IP packets in a manner compatible with the Columbia AppleTalk Package (CAP) IPTalk and the Kinetics IPTalk (KIP) implementations.

This command allows AppleTalk communication with UNIX hosts running older versions of CAP that do not support native AppleTalk EtherTalk encapsulations. Typically, Apple Macintosh users wishing to communicate with these servers would have their connections routed through a Kinetics FastPath router running KIP (Kinetics IP) software.

This command is provided as a migration command; newer versions of CAP provide native AppleTalk EtherTalk encapsulations, and the IPTalk encapsulation is no longer required. Our implementation of IPTalk assumes that AppleTalk is already being routed on the backbone, because there is currently no LocalTalk hardware interface for our routers and access servers.

Our implementation of IPTalk does not support manually configured AppleTalk-to-IP address mapping (atab). The address mapping provided is the same as the Kinetics IPTalk implementation when the atab facility is not enabled. This address mapping functions as follows: The IP subnet mask used on the access server Ethernet interface on which IPTalk is enabled is inverted (ones complement). This result is then masked against 255 (0xFF hexadecimal). This is then masked against the low-order 8 bits of the IP address to obtain the AppleTalk node number.

Example

The following example configuration illustrates how to configure IPTalk:

interface ethernet 0
 ip address 172.16.1.118 255.255.255.0
 appletalk address 20.129
 appletalk zone Native AppleTalk
 appletalk iptalk 30.0 UDPZone

In this configuration, the IP subnet mask would be inverted:

255.255.255.0 inverted yields: 0.0.0.255

Masked with 255 it yields 255, and masked with the low-order 8 bits of the interface IP address it yields 118.

This means that the AppleTalk address of the Ethernet 0 interface seen in the UDPZone zone is 30.118. This caveat should be noted, however: Should the host field of an IP subnet mask for an interface be more than 8 bits wide, it will be possible to obtain conflicting AppleTalk node numbers. For instance, consider a situation where the subnet mask for the Ethernet 0 interface above is 255.255.240.0, meaning that the host field is 12 bits wide.

appletalk iptalk-baseport

To specify the UDP port number when configuring IPTalk, use the appletalk iptalk-baseport global configuration command. To return to the default UDP port number, use the no form of this command.

appletalk iptalk-baseport port-number
no appletalk iptalk-baseport [port-number]

Syntax Description

port-number

First UDP port number in the range of UDP ports used in mapping AppleTalk well-known DDP socket numbers to UDP ports.


Default

768

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

Implementations of IPTalk prior to April 1988 mapped well-known DDP socket numbers to privileged UDP ports starting at port number 768. In April 1988, the NIC assigned a range of UDP ports for the defined DDP well-known sockets starting at UDP port number 200 and assigned these ports the names at-nbp, at-rtmp, at-echo, and at-zis. Release 6 and later of the CAP program dynamically decides which port mapping to use. If there are no AppleTalk service entries in the UNIX system's /etc/services file, CAP uses the older mapping starting at UDP port number 768.

The default UDP port mapping supported by our implementation of IPTalk is 768. If there are AppleTalk service entries in the UNIX system's /etc/services file, you should specify the beginning of the UDP port mapping range with the appletalk iptalk-baseport command.

Example

The following example sets the base UDP port number to 200, which is the official NIC port number, and configures IPTalk on Ethernet interface 0:

appletalk routing
appletalk iptalk-baseport 200
!
interface ethernet 0
 ip address 172.16.1.118 255.255.255.0
 appletalk address 20.129
 appletalk zone Native AppleTalk
 appletalk iptalk 30.0 UDPZone

appletalk lookup-type

To specify which NBP service types are retained in the name cache, use the appletalk lookup-type global configuration command. To disable the caching of services, use the no form of this command.

appletalk lookup-type service-type
no appletalk lookup-type [service-type]

Syntax Description

service-type

AppleTalk service types. The name of a service type can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, type a colon followed by two hexadecimal numbers. For zone names with a leading space character, enter the first character as the special sequence :20. For a list of possible types, see in the "Usage Guidelines" section.


Default

The ciscoRouter entries are retained in the name cache.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

You can issue multiple appletalk lookup-type commands. The access server does not query the entire zone, but instead polls only the connected networks. This reduces network overhead and means that the name cache contains entries only for selected services that are in a directly connected network or zone, not for all the selected services in a network or zone.

lists some AppleTalk service types.

Table 17-1 AppleTalk Service Types

Service Type1
Description
Services for Cisco Routers
 

 ciscoRouter

Active adjacent Cisco routers; this service type is initially enabled by default.

 IPADDRESS

Addresses of active MacIP server.

 IPGATEWAY

Names of active MacIP server.

 SNMP Agent

Active SNMP agents in Cisco routers.

Services for Other Vendors' Routers
 

 AppleRouter

Apple internet router.

 FastPath

Shiva LocalTalk gateway.

 GatorBox

Cayman LocalTalk gateway.

 systemRouter

Cisco's OEM router name.

 Workstation

Macintosh running System 7; the machine type also is defined, so it is possible to easily identify all user nodes.

1 Type all entries exactly as shown. Spaces are valid. Do not use leading or trailing spaces when entering service names.


If you omit the service-type argument from the no appletalk lookup-type command, no service types except those relating to our routers and access servers are cached.

To display information that is stored in the name cache about the services being used by our routers and other vendors' routers, use the show appletalk name-cache command.

If a neighboring router is not our access server or is running our software that is earlier than Release 9.0, it is possible the router will be unable to determine the name of the neighbor. This is normal behavior, and there is no workaround.

If AppleTalk routing is enabled, enabling SNMP will automatically enable SNMP over DDP.

Name cache entries are deleted after several interval periods expire without being refreshed. (You set the interval with the appletalk name-lookup-interval command.) At each interval, a single request is sent via each interface that has valid addresses.

Example

The following example caches information about GatorBox services, Apple internet routers, MacIP services, and workstations. Information about our routers and access servers is automatically cached.

appletalk lookup GatorBox
appletalk lookup AppleRouter
appletalk lookup IPGATEWAY
appletalk lookup Workstation

appletalk macip dynamic

To allocate IP addresses to dynamic MacIP clients, use the appletalk macip dynamic global configuration command. To delete a MacIP dynamic address assignment, use the no form of this command.

appletalk macip dynamic ip-address [ip-address] zone server-zone
no appletalk macip [dynamic ip-address [ip-address] zone server-zone]

Syntax Description

ip-address

IP address, in four-part dotted decimal notation. To specify a range, enter two IP addresses, which represent the first and last addresses in the range.

zone server-zone

Zone in which the MacIP server resides. The argument server-zone can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, specify a colon followed by two hexadecimal characters. For zone names with a leading space character, enter the first character as the special sequence :20. For a list of Macintosh characters, refer to the Apple Computer, Inc. specification Inside AppleTalk.


Default

No IP addresses are allocated.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

Use the appletalk macip dynamic command when configuring MacIP.

Dynamic clients are those that accept any IP address assignment within the dynamic range specified.

In general, it is recommended that you do not use fragmented address ranges in configuring ranges for MacIP. However, if this is unavoidable, use the appletalk macip dynamic command to specify as many addresses or ranges as required and use the appletalk macip static command to assign a specific address or address range.

To shut down all running MacIP services, use the following command:

no appletalk macip

To delete a particular dynamic address assignment from the configuration, use the following command:

no appletalk macip dynamic ip-address [ip-address] zone server-zone

Example

The following example illustrates MacIP support for dynamically addressed MacIP clients with IP addresses in the range 172.16.1.28 to 172.16.1.44.

appletalk macip server ip-address zone server-zone
no appletalk macip [server ip-address zone server-zone]

Syntax Description

ip-address

IP address, in four-part dotted decimal notation. It is suggested that this address match the address of an existing IP interface.

zone server-zone

Zone in which the MacIP server resides. The argument server-zone can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, specify a colon followed by two hexadecimal characters. For zone names with a leading space character, enter the first character as the special sequence :20. For a list of Macintosh characters, refer to the Apple Computer, Inc. specification Inside AppleTalk.


Default

No MacIP server is established.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

Use the appletalk macip server command when configuring MacIP.

You can configure only one MacIP server per AppleTalk zone, and the server must reside in the default zone. A server is not registered via NBP until at least one MacIP resource is configured.

You can configure multiple MacIP servers for an access server, but you can assign only one MacIP server to a particular zone and only one IP interface to each MacIP server. In general, you must be able to establish an alias between the IP address you assign with the appletalk macip server command and an existing IP interface. For implementation simplicity, it is suggested that the address specified in this command match an existing IP interface address.

To shut down all active MacIP servers, use the following command:

no appletalk macip

To delete a specific MacIP server from the MacIP configuration, use the following command:

no appletalk macip server ip-address zone server-zone

Example

The following example establishes a MacIP server on Ethernet interface 0 in AppleTalk zone Engineering. It then assigns an IP address to the Ethernet interface and enables AppleTalk routing on the access server and the Ethernet interface.

zone server-zone

Zone in which the MacIP server resides. The argument server-zone can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, specify a colon followed by two hexadecimal characters. For zone names with a leading space character, enter the first character as the special sequence :20. For a list of Macintosh characters, refer to Apple Computer, Inc. specification Inside AppleTalk.


Default

No IP address is allocated.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

Use the appletalk macip static command when configuring MacIP.

Static addresses are for users who require fixed addresses for IP name domain name service and for administrators who do want addresses to change so they can always know who has what IP address.

In general, it is recommended that you do not use fragmented address ranges in configuring ranges for MacIP. However, if this is unavoidable, use the appletalk macip dynamic command to specify as many addresses or ranges as required, and then use the appletalk macip static command to assign a specific address or address range.

To shut down all running MacIP services, use the following command:

no appletalk macip

To delete a particular static address assignment from the configuration, use the following command:

no appletalk macip static ip-address [ip-address] zone server-zone

Example

The following example illustrates MacIP support for MacIP clients with statically allocated IP addresses. The IP addresses range is from 172.16.1.50 to 172.16.1.66. The three nodes that have the specific addresses are 172.16.1.81, 172.16.1.92, and 172.16.1.101.

appletalk name-lookup-interval

To set the interval between service pollings by the access server on its AppleTalk interfaces, use the appletalk name-lookup-interval global configuration command. To purge the name cache and return to the default polling interval, use the no form of this command.

appletalk name-lookup-interval seconds
no appletalk name-lookup-interval [seconds]

Syntax Description

seconds

Interval, in seconds, between NBP lookup pollings. This can be any positive integer; there is no upper limit. It is recommended that you use an interval between 300 seconds (5 minutes) and 1200 seconds (20 minutes). The smaller the interval, the more packets are generated to handle the names. Specifying an interval of 0 purges all entries from the name cache and disables the caching of service type information that is controlled by the appletalk lookup-type command, including the caching of information about our routers and access servers.


Default

0, which purges all entries from the name cache and disables the caching of service type information.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The access server collects name information only for entities on connected AppleTalk networks.This reduces overhead.

If you enter an interval of 0, all polling for services (except ciscoRouter) is disabled. If you reenter a nonzero value, the configuration specified by the appletalk lookup-type command is reinstated. You cannot disable the lookup of ciscoRouter.

Example

The following example sets the lookup interval to 20 minutes:

appletalk name-lookup-interval 1200

appletalk permit-partial-zones

To permit access to the other networks in a zone when access to one of those networks is denied, use the appletalk permit-partial-zones global command. To return to the default behavior, which is to deny access to all networks in a zone if access to one of those networks is denied, use the no form of this command.

appletalk permit-partial-zones
no appletalk permit-partial-zones

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Access to other networks is denied.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The permitting of partial zones provides IP-style access control.

When you enable the use of partial zones, the NBP protocol cannot ensure the consistency and uniqueness of name bindings.

If you enable the use of partial zones, access control behavior is compatible with that of software Release 8.3.

Example

The following example allows partial zones:

appletalk permit-partial-zones

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Pre-FDDITalk packets are not recognized.

Command Mode

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to have the access server recognize AppleTalk packets sent on the FDDI ring from routers running Cisco software releases prior to Release 9.0(3) or Release 9.1(2).

Example

The following example disables the recognition of pre-FDDITalk packets:

no appletalk pre-fdditalk 

appletalk protocol

To specify the routing protocol to use on an interface, use the appletalk protocol interface configuration command. To disable a routing protocol, use the no form of this command.

appletalk protocol {aurp | eigrp | rtmp}
no appletalk protocol {aurp | eigrp | rtmp}

Syntax Description

aurp

Specifies that the routing protocol to use is AURP. You can enable AURP only on tunnel interfaces.

eigrp

Specifies that the routing protocol to use is Enhanced IGRP.

rtmp

Specifies that the routing protocol to use is RTMP. RTMP is enabled by default.


Default

RTMP

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

You can configure an interface to use both RTMP and Enhanced IGRP. If you do so, route information learned from Enhanced IGRP will take precedence over information learned from RTMP. The access server will, however, continue to send out RTMP routing updates.

Enabling AURP automatically disables RTMP.

You can enable AURP only on tunnel interfaces.

Examples

The following example enables AppleTalk Enhanced IGRP on serial interface 0:

interface serial 0
 appletalk protocol eigrp

The following example disables RTMP on serial interface 0:

interface serial 0
 no appletalk protocol rtmp

The following example enables AURP on tunnel interface 1:

appletalk proxy-nbp

To assign a proxy network number for each zone in which there is a router that supports only nonextended AppleTalk, use the appletalk proxy-nbp global configuration command. To delete the proxy, use the no form of this command.

appletalk proxy-nbp network-number zone-name
no appletalk proxy-nbp [network-number zone-name]

Syntax Description

network-number

Network number of the proxy. It is a 16-bit decimal number and must be unique on the network. This is the network number that will be advertised by the access server as if it were a real network number.

zone-name

Name of the zone that contains the routers that support only nonextended AppleTalk. The name can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, type a colon followed by two hexadecimal characters. For zone names with a leading space character, enter the first character as the special sequence :20.


Default

No proxy network number is assigned.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The appletalk proxy-nbp command provides compatibility between AppleTalk Phase 1 and AppleTalk Phase 2 networks.

Proxy routes are included in outgoing RTMP updates as if they were directly connected routes, although they are not really directly connected, since they are not associated with any interface. Whenever an NBQ BrRq for the zone in question is generated by anyone anywhere in the Internet, an NBP FwdReq is directed to any router connected to the proxy route. The Phase 2 router which is the only router directly connected converts the FwdReq to LkUps, which are understood by Phase 1 routers, and sends them to every network in the zone.

In an environment in which there are Phase 1 and Phase 2 networks, you must specify at least one appletalk proxy-nbp command for each zone that has a nonextended-only AppleTalk access server.

The proxy network number you assign with the appletalk proxy-nbp command cannot also be assigned to an access server, nor can it also be associated with a physical network.

You need to assign only one proxy network number for each zone. However, you can define additional proxies with different network numbers to provide redundancy. Each proxy generates one or more packets for each forward request it receives. All other packets sent to the proxy network address are discarded. Defining redundant proxy network numbers increases the NBP traffic linearly.

Example

The following example defines network number 60 as an NBP proxy for the zone Twilight:

appletalk proxy-nbp 60 Twilight

Related Command
show appletalk route

appletalk require-route-zones

To prevent the advertisement of routes (network numbers or cable ranges) that have no assigned zone, use the appletalk require-route-zones global configuration command. To disable this option and allow the access server to advertise to its neighbors routes that have no network-zone association, use the no form of this command.

appletalk require-route-zones
no appletalk require-route-zones

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Enabled

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The appletalk require-route-zones command ensures that all networks have zone names prior to advertisement to neighbors.

The no appletalk require-route-zones command enables router behavior compatible with software Release 8.3.

Using this command helps prevent ZIP protocol storms. ZIP protocol storms can arise when corrupt routes are propagated and routers broadcast ZIP requests to determine the network/zone associations.

When the appletalk require-route-zones command is enabled, the access server will not advertise a route to its neighboring routers until it has obtained the network/zone associations. This effectively limits the storms to a single network rather than the entire internet.

As an alternative to disabling this option, use the appletalk getzonelist-filter interface configuration command to filter empty zones from the list presented to users.

You can configure different zone lists on different interfaces. However, you are discouraged from doing this because AppleTalk users expect to have the same user zone lists at any end node in the internet.

The filtering provided by the appletalk require-route-zones command does not prevent explicit access via programmatic methods, but should be considered a user optimization to suppress unused zones. You should use other forms of AppleTalk access control lists to actually secure a zone or network.

Example

The following example configures an access server to prevent the advertisement of routes that have no assigned zone:

appletalk require-route-zones

appletalk route-cache

To enable fast switching on all supported interfaces, use the appletalk route-cache interface configuration command. To disable fast switching, use the no form of this command.

appletalk route-cache
no appletalk route-cache

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Enabled on all interfaces that support fast switching

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

Fast switching allows higher throughput by switching a packet using a cache created by previous packets. Fast switching is enabled by default on all interfaces that support fast switching, including Token Ring, Frame Relay, and PPP. Note that fast switching is not supported over X.25 and LAPB encapsulations, or on the CSC-R16, CSC-1R, or CSC-2R STR Token Ring adapters.

Packet transfer performance is generally better when fast switching is enabled. However, you may want to disable fast switching in order to save memory space on interface cards and to help avoid congestion when high-bandwidth interfaces are writing large amounts of information to low-bandwidth interfaces.

For serial lines, fast switching is supported on extended serial lines with HDLC encapsulation only. It is not supported on nonextended serial lines.

Example

The following example disables fast switching on an interface:

interface ethernet 0
 appletalk cable-range 10-20
 appletalk zone Twilight
 no appletalk route-cache

appletalk route-redistribution

To redistribute RTMP routes into AppleTalk Enhanced IGRP and vice versa, use the appletalk route-redistribution global configuration command. To keep Enhanced IGRP and RTMP routes separate, use the no form of this command.

appletalk route-redistribution
no appletalk route-redistribution

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Enabled when Enhanced IGRP is enabled.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

Redistribution allows routing information generated by one protocol to be advertised in another.

In the automatic redistribution of routes between Enhanced IGRP and RTMP, an RTMP hop is treated as having a slightly worse metric than an equivalent Enhanced IGRP hop on a 9.6-kilobit link. This allows Enhanced IGRP to be preferred over RTMP except in the most extreme of circumstances. Typically, you will see this only when using tunnels. If you want an Enhanced IGRP path in a tunnel to be preferred over an alternate RTMP path, you should set the interface delay and bandwidth parameters on the tunnel to bring the metric of the tunnel down to being better than a 9.6-kilobit link.

Example

In the following example, RTMP routing information is not redistributed:

appletalk routing eigrp 23
no appletalk route-redistribution

appletalk routing

To enable AppleTalk routing, use the appletalk routing global configuration command. To disable AppleTalk routing, use the no form of this command.

appletalk routing [eigrp router-number]
no appletalk routing [eigrp router-number]

Syntax Description

eigrp router-number

(Optional) Specifies the Enhanced IGRP routing protocol. The argument router-number is the router ID. It can be a decimal integer from 1 to 65535. It must be unique in your AppleTalk Enhanced IGRP internetwork.


Default

AppleTalk routing is disabled.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

If you do not specify the optional keyword and argument, this command enables AppleTalk routing using the RTMP routing protocol.

You can configure multiple AppleTalk Enhanced IGRP processes on an access server. To do so, assign each a different router ID number. (Note that IP and IPX Enhanced IGRP use an autonomous system number to enable Enhanced IGRP, while AppleTalk Enhanced IGRP uses a router ID.)

If you configure an access server with a router number that is the same as that of a neighboring router, the access server will refuse to start AppleTalk Enhanced IGRP on interfaces that connect with that neighboring router.

Examples

The following example enables AppleTalk protocol processing on the access server:

appletalk routing

The following example enables AppleTalk Enhanced IGRP routing on access server number 22:

appletalk routing eigrp 22

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Routing updates are sent.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to ensure that a new internal network, created with the arap network command, is advertised.

If you block the sending of routing updates, an interface on the network that has AppleTalk enabled is not "visible" to other routers on the network.

appletalk static cable-range

To define a static route on an extended network, use the appletalk static cable-range global configuration command. To remove a static route, use the no form of this command.

appletalk static cable-range cable-range to network.node zone zone-name
no appletalk static cable-range cable-range to network.node [zone zone-name]

Syntax Description

cable-range

Cable range value. The argument specifies the start and end of the cable range, separated by a hyphen. These values are decimal number from 0 to 65279. The starting network number must be less than or equal to the ending network number.

network.node

AppleTalk network address of the remote access server. The argument network is the 16-bit network number in the range 0 to 65279. The argument node is the 8-bit node number in the range 0 to 254. Both numbers are decimal.

zone-name

Name of the zone on the remote network. The name can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, type a colon followed by two hexadecimal characters. For zone names with a leading space character, enter the first character as the special sequence :20.


Default

No static routes are defined.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

You cannot delete a particular zone from the zone list without first deleting the static route.

Example

The following example creates a static route to the remote router whose address is 1.2 on the remote network 100-110 that is in the remote zone Remote:

appletalk static cable 100-110 to 1.2 zone Remote

AppleTalk network address of the remote access server. The argument network is the 16-bit network number in the range 0 to 65279. The argument node is the 8-bit node number in the range 0 to 254. Both numbers are decimal.

zone-name

Name of the zone on the remote network. The name can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, type a colon followed by two hexadecimal characters. For zone names with a leading space character, enter the first character as the special sequence :20.


Default

No static routes are defined.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

You cannot delete a particular zone from the zone list without first deleting the static route.

Example

The following example creates a static route to the remote router whose address is 1.2 on the remote network 200 that is in the remote zone Remote:

appletalk static network 200 to 1.2 zone Remote

appletalk strict-rtmp-checking

To perform maximum checking of routing updates to ensure their validity, use the appletalk strict-rtmp-checking global configuration command. To disable the maximum checking, use the no form of this command.

appletalk strict-rtmp-checking
no appletalk strict-rtmp-checking

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Default

Maximum checking is performed.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

Strict RTMP checking discards any RTMP packets arriving from access servers that are not directly connected to the local router. This means that the local access server does not accept any routed RTMP packets. Note that RTMP packets that need to be forwarded by the access server are not discarded.

Example

The following example disables strict checking of RTMP routing updates:

no appletalk strict-rtmp-checking

Related Commands

appletalk require-route-zones
appletalk send-rtmps
appletalk timers

appletalk timers

To change the routing update timers, use the appletalk timers global configuration command. To return to the default routing update timers, use the no form of this command.

appletalk timers update-interval valid-interval invalid-interval
no appletalk timers [update-interval valid-interval invalid-interval]

Syntax Description

update-interval

Time, in seconds, between routing updates sent to other routers on the network. The default is 10 seconds.

valid-interval

Time, in seconds, that the access server will consider a route valid without having heard a routing update for that route. The default is 20 seconds (two times the update interval).

invalid-interval

Time, in seconds, that the route is retained after the last update. The default is 60 seconds (three times the valid interval).


Default

update-interval: 10 seconds
valid-interval: 20 seconds
invalid-interval: 60 seconds

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

Routes older than the time specified by update-interval are considered suspect. Once the period of time specified by valid-interval has elapsed without having heard a routing update for a route, the route becomes bad and is eligible for replacement by a path with a higher (less favorable) metric. During the invalid-interval period, routing updates include this route with a special "notify neighbor" metric. If this timer expires, the route is deleted from the routing table.

Note that you should not attempt to modify the routing timers without fully understanding the ramifications of doing so. Many other AppleTalk router vendors provide no facility for modifying their routing timers; should you adjust our access server's AppleTalk timers such that routing updates do not arrive at these other routers within the normal interval, it is possible to degrade or destroy AppleTalk network connectivity.

If you change the routing update interval, be sure to do so for all routers on the network.

In rare instances, you might want to change this interval, such as when a router is busy and cannot send routing updates every 10 seconds or when slower routers are incapable of processing received routing updates in a large network.

Example

The following example increases the update interval to 20 seconds and the valid interval to 40 seconds:

appletalk timers 20 40 60

appletalk virtual-net

To add AppleTalk users logging in on an asynchronous line and using PPP encapsulation to an internal network, use the appletalk virtual-net global configuration command. Use the no form of the command to remove an internal network.

appletalk virtual-net network-number zone-name
no appletalk virtual-net network-number zone-name

Syntax Description

network-number

AppleTalk network address assigned to the interface, a decimal 16-bit network number in the range 0 to 65279. The network address must be unique across your AppleTalk internetwork.

zone-name

Name of a new or existing zone to which the AppleTalk user will belong.


Default

No virtual networks are predefined.

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

A virtual network is a logical network that exists only within the access server. It enables you—and by extension anyone who dials into the server on this interface—to add an asynchronous interface to either a new or existing AppleTalk zone.

If you issue this command and use a new AppleTalk zone name, this network number will be the only one associated with this zone. If you issue this command and use an existing AppleTalk zone, this network number will be added to the existing zone.

The selected AppleTalk zone (either new or existing) is highlighted when you open the Macintosh Chooser window. From here, you can access any other available zones.

Example

The following example adds a user to the virtual network with the network number 3 and the name renegade:

appletalk virtual-net 3 renegade

appletalk zip-query-interval

To specify the interval at which the access server sends ZIP queries, use the appletalk zip-query-interval global configuration command. To return to the default interval, use the no form of this command.

appletalk zip-query-interval interval
no zip-query-interval [interval]

Syntax Description

interval

Interval, in seconds, at which the access server sends ZIP queries. It can be any positive integer. The default is 10 seconds.


Default

10 seconds

Command Mode

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The access server uses the information received in response to its ZIP queries to update its zone table.

Example

The following example changes the ZIP query interval to 40 seconds:

appletalk zip-query-interval 40

appletalk zip-reply-filter

To configure a ZIP reply filter, use the appletalk zip-reply-filter interface configuration command. To remove a filter, use the no form of this command.

appletalk zip-reply-filter access-list-number
no appletalk zip-reply-filter [access-list-number]

Syntax Description

access-list-number

Number of the access list. This is a decimal number from 600 to 699.


Default

No access lists are predefined.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

ZIP reply filters limit the visibility of zones from routers in unprivileged regions throughout the internetwork. These filters filter the zone list for each network provided by an access server to neighboring access servers to remove restricted zones.

ZIP reply filters apply to downstream access servers, not to end stations on networks attached to the local access server. With ZIP reply filters, when downstream routers request the names of zones in a network, the local router replies with the names of visible zones only. It does not reply with the names of zones that have been hidden with a ZIP reply filter. To filter zones from end stations, use GZL filters.

Example

The following example assigns a ZIP reply filter to Ethernet interface 0:

interface ethernet 0
 appletalk zip-reply-filter 600

Related Commands

appletalk zone

To set the zone name for the connected AppleTalk network, use the appletalk zone interface configuration command. To delete a zone, use the no form of this command.

appletalk zone zone-name
no appletalk zone [zone-name]

Syntax Description

zone-name

Name of the zone. The name can include special characters from the Apple Macintosh character set. To include a special character, type a colon followed by two hexadecimal characters. For zone names with a leading space character, enter the first character as the special sequence :20.


Default

No zone name is set.

Command Mode

Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

If discovery mode is not enabled, you can specify this command only after an appletalk address or appletalk cable-range command. You can issue it multiple times if it follows the appletalk cable-range command.

On interfaces that have discovery mode disabled, you must assign a zone name in order for AppleTalk routing to begin.

If an interface is using extended AppleTalk, the first zone specified in the list is the default zone. The access server always uses the default zone when registering NBP names for interfaces. Nodes in the network will select the zone in which they will operate from the list of zone names valid on the cable to which they are connected.

If an interface is using nonextended AppleTalk, repeated execution of the appletalk zone command will replace the interface's zone name with the newly specified zone name.

The no form of the command deletes a zone name from a zone list or deletes the entire zone list if you do not specify a zone name. For nonextended AppleTalk interfaces, the zone name argument is ignored. You should delete any existing zone-name list using the no appletalk zone interface subcommand before configuring a new zone list.

The zone list is cleared automatically when you issue an appletalk address or appletalk cable-range command. The list also is cleared if you issue the appletalk zone command on an existing network; this can occur when adding zones to a set of routers until all access servers are in agreement.

Examples

The following example assigns the zone name Twilight to an interface:

interface Ethernet 0
 appletalk cable-range 10-20
 appletalk zone Twilight

The following example uses AppleTalk special characters to set the zone name to Cisco·Zone.

appletalk zone Cisco:A5Zone

ping (user)

To check host reachability and network connectivity, use the ping user EXEC command.

ping appletalk network.node

Syntax Description

appletalk

Specifies the AppleTalk protocol.

network.node

AppleTalk address of the system to ping.


Command Mode

EXEC

Usage Guidelines

The user ping (packet internet groper function) command provides a basic ping facility for users who do not have system privileges. This command is equivalent to the nonverbose form of the privileged ping command. It sends five 100-byte ping packets. The ping command sends Apple Echo Protocol (AEP) datagrams to other AppleTalk nodes to verify connectivity and measure round-trip times.

Only an interface that supports HearSelf can respond to packets generated at a local console and directed to an interface on the same router. Our routers and access servers support only HearSelf on Ethernet.

If the system cannot map an address for a host name, it will return an "%Unrecognized host or address" error message.

To abort a ping session, type the escape sequence. By default, this is Ctrl-^ X. You enter this by simultaneously pressing the Ctrl, Shift, and 6 keys, letting go, and then pressing the X key.

Sample Display of NBP Ping and the Nbptest Facility

The AppleTalk ping command allows testing and informational lookup of NBP-registered entities. Use the NBP option when you find that AppleTalk zones are listed in the Chooser, but services in these zones are unavailable. When you enter nbp in response to the Target AppleTalk address prompt, ping starts the nbptest facility, which is an interactive, menu-driven facility. Type help or ? to see the command list. Type quit to return to the EXEC prompt.

The following display shows how to initialize the AppleTalk nbptest utility:

Router# ping
Protocol [ip]: appletalk
Target AppleTalk address: nbp
nbptest>

Type help to display the following list of available commands:

nbptest> help
Tests are:
lookup:	     lookup an NVE. prompt for name, type and zone
parms:	      display/change lookup parms (ntimes, ncecs, interval)
zones:	      display zones
poll: 	      for every zone, lookup all devices, using default
help|?:	     print command list
quit: 	      exit nbptest

The following paragraphs summarize the nbptest tests that you can perform:

lookup—Searches for NBP entities in a specific zone.

parms—Sets the parameters used in subsequent lookup and pool tests.

zones—Displays the access server's current zone list. It is equivalent to the show appletalk zone command.

poll—Searches for all devices in all zones.

help or ?—Displays the list of nbptest tests.

quit—exit from the nbptest facility.

The remainder of this section shows and explains the output of the various nbptest commands.

When running any of the nbptest tests, you specify a nonprinting character by entering a three-character string that is the hexadecimal equivalent of the character. For example, type :c5 to specify the NBP truncation wildcard.

The following display shows sample output of the nbptest lookup command:

Table 17-11 Show AppleTalk ARP Field Descriptions

Field
Description

Address

AppleTalk network address of the interface.

Age (min)

Time, in minutes, that this entry has been in the ARP table. Entries are purged after they have been in the table for 240 minutes (4 hours). A hyphen indicates that this is a new entry.

Type

Indicates how the ARP table entry was learned. It can be one of the following:

Dynamic—Entry was learned via AARP.

Hardware—Entry was learned from an adapter in the access server.

Pending—Entry for a destination for which the access server does not yet know the address. When a packet requests to be sent to an address for which the access server does not yet have the MAC-level address, the access server creates an AARP entry for that AppleTalk address, then sends an AARP Resolve packet to get the MAC-level address for that node. When the access server gets the response, the entry is marked "Dynamic." A pending AARP entry times out after 1 minute.

Hardware Addr

MAC address of this interface.

Encap

Encapsulation type. It can be one of the following:

ARPA—Ethernet-type encapsulation.

SNAP—IEEE 802.3 encapsulation.

Interface

Type and number of the interface.

Description

ck_resource

The server makes sure at least one client range is available. If not, it deregisters NBP names and returns to the resource_wait state.

del_server

State at which all servers end. In this state, the server deregisters all NBP names, purges all clients, and deallocates server resources.

initial

The state at which all servers start.

resource-wait

The server waits until a client range for the server has been configured.

send_confirms

The server tickles active clients every minute, deletes clients that have not responded within the last 5 minutes, and checks IP and AppleTalk interfaces used by MacIP server. If the interfaces are down or have been reconfigured, the server restarts.

server_start

The server registers configured IPADDRESS and registers as IPGATEWAY. It then opens an ATP socket to listen for IP address assignment requests, sends NBP lookup requests for existing IPADDRESSes, and automatically adds clients with addresses within one of the configured client ranges.

server_up

The server has registered. Being in this state enables routing to client ranges. The server now responds to IP address assignment requests.

zone_wait

The server waits until the configured AppleTalk zone name for the server is up. The server will remain in this state if no such zone has been configured or if AppleTalk routing is not enabled.

Related Command

show appletalk nbp

show appletalk nbp

To display the contents of the NBP name registration table, use the show appletalk nbp EXEC command.

show appletalk nbp

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Mode

EXEC

Usage Guidelines

The show appletalk nbp command lets you identify specific AppleTalk nodes. It displays services registered by the access server. In contrast, use the show appletalk name-cache command to display any AppleTalk services of interest in local zones.

Routers with active AppleTalk interfaces register each interface separately. The access server generates a unique interface NBP name by appending the interface type name and unit number to the router name. For example, for the router named "router" that has AppleTalk enabled on Ethernet interface 0 in the zone Marketing, the NBP registered name is as follows:

router.Ethernet0:ciscoRouter@Marketing

Registering each interface on the access server provides you with an indication that the access server is configured and operating properly.

One name is registered for each interface. Other service types are registered once for each zone.

The access server deregisters the NBP name if AppleTalk is disabled on the interface for any reason.

Depending on the configuration of the global configuration commands appletalk lookup-type and appletalk name-lookup-interval, a node name may appear in this display instead of a node address.

Table 17-33 Show AppleTalk Route Field Descriptions

Field
Description

Codes:

Codes defining how the route was learned.

 R

Route learned from an RTMP update.

 E

route learned from an EIGRP update.

 C

Directly connected network.

 S

Statically defined route.

 P

Proxy route. (Proxy routes are included in outgoing RTMP updates as if they were directly connected routes, [although they are not really directly connected], since they are not associated with any interface. Whenever an NBQ BrRq for the zone in question is generated by anyone anywhere in the Internet, an NBP FwdReq is directed to any router connected to the proxy route. The Phase 2 router [which is the only router directly connected] converts the FwdReq to LkUps which are understood by Phase 1 routers, and sends them to every network in the zone.)

3 routes

Number of routes in the table.

Net 258

Network to which the route goes.

Net 999-999

Cable range to which the route goes.

directly connected

Indicates that the network is directly connected to the access server.

1431 uses

Fair estimate of the number of times a route gets used. It actually indicates the number of times the route has been selected for use prior to operations such as access list filtering.

Ethernet0

Possible interface through which updates to the remote network will be sent.

zone Twilight

Name of zone of which the destination network is a member.

[1/G]

Number of hops to this network, followed by the state of the link to that network. The state can be one of the following letters:

G—Link is good.

S—Link is suspect.

B—Link is bad.

The state is determined from the routing updates that occur at 10-second intervals. A separate and nonsynchronized event occurs at 20-second intervals, checking and flushing the ratings for particular routes that have not been updated. For each 20-second period that passes with no new routing information, a rating changes from G to S and then from S to B. After 1 minute with no updates, that route is flushed. Every time the access server receives a useful update, the status of the route in question is reset to G. Useful updates are those advertising a route that is as good or better than the one currently in the table.

When an AppleTalk route is poisoned by another router, its metric gets changed to poisoned (that is, 31 hops). The access server then will age this route normally during a holddown period, during which the route will still be visible in the routing table.

via 258.179

Address of a router that is the next hop to the remote network.

via gatekeeper

Node name of a router that is the next hop to the remote network.

8 sec

Number of seconds that have elapsed since an RMTP update about this network was last received.


The following is sample output from the show appletalk route command when you specify a network number:

Router#  show appletalk route 69

Codes: R - RTMP derived, E - EIGRP derived, C - connected, P - proxy, S - static

The first zone listed for each entry is its default (primary) zone.

R Net 69-69 [2/G] via gatekeeper, 0 sec, Ethernet0, zone Empty Guf
Route installed 125:20:21, updated 0 secs ago
Next hop: gatekeeper, 2 hops away
Zone list provided by gatekeeper
Route has been updated since last RTMP was sent
Valid zones: "Empty Guf"

describes the fields shown in the display.

Description

Codes:

Codes defining how the route was learned.

 R

Route learned from an RTMP update.

 E

route learned from an EIGRP update.

 P

Proxy route.

67 routes in internet

Number of routes in the Apple Talk internet.

Net 69-69

Cable range to which the route goes. This is the number of the network you specified on the show appletalk route command line.

[2/G]

Number of hops to this network, followed by the state of the link to that network. The state can be one of the following letters:

G—Link is good.

S—Link is suspect.

B—Link is bad.

The state is determined from the routing updates that occur at 10-second intervals. A separate and nonsynchronized event occurs at 20-second intervals, checking and flushing the ratings for particular routes that have not been updated. For each 20-second period that passes with no new routing information, a rating changes from G to S and then from S to B. After 1 minute with no updates, that route is flushed.

When an AppleTalk route is poisoned by another router, its metric gets changed to poisoned (that is, 31 hops). The access server then will age this route normally during a holddown period, during which the route will still be visible in the routing table.

via gatekeeper

Address or node name of a router that is the next hop to the remote network.

0 sec

Number of seconds that have elapsed since an RMTP update about this network was last received.

Ethernet0

Possible interface through which updates to the remote network will be sent.

zone Empty Guf

Name of zone of which the destination network is a member.

Route installed 125:20:21

Length of time, in hours, minutes, and seconds, since this route was first learned about.

updated 0 secs ago

Time, in seconds, since the access server received an update for this route.

Next hop: gatekeeper

Address or node name of the router that is one hop away.

2 hops away

Number of hops to the network specified in the show appletalk route command line.

Zone list provided by gatekeeper

Address or node name of the router that provided the zone list included with the RTMP update.

Route has been updated since last RTMP was sent

Indicates whether the access server has received a routing update from a neighboring router since the last time the access server sent an RTMP update for this route.

Valid zones: "Empty Guf"

Zone names that are valid for this network.
