Token Ring Inter-Switch Link Commands


Use the commands in this chapter to configure Token Ring Inter-Switch Link (TRISL) on Cisco routers. To locate related commands that are documented in other chapters, use the command reference master index or search online. For TRISL configuration task information and examples, refer to the "Configuring Token Ring Inter-Switch Link" chapter in the Cisco IOS Bridging and IBM Networking Configuration Guide.

For hardware technical descriptions and for information about installing the router interfaces, refer to the hardware installation and maintenance publication for your particular product.

clear drip counters

To clear duplicate ring protocol (DRiP) counters, use the clear drip counters privileged EXEC command.

clear drip counters

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

No default behavior or values.

Command Modes

Privileged EXEC

Command History

Release
Modification

11.3(4)T

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

Use the clear drip counters command if you want to check whether the router is receiving any packets. The counters will start at 0. If the counters are incrementing, DRiP is active on the router.

Examples

The following example clears DRiP counters:

router# clear drip counters

Command
Description

encapsulation tr-isl trbrf-vlan

Enables TRISL, a Cisco protocol for interconnecting multiple routers and switches and maintaining Token Ring VLAN information as traffic goes between switches.

show drip

Displays the status of the DRiP database.


encapsulation tr-isl trbrf-vlan

To enable TRISL, a Cisco protocol for interconnecting multiple routers and switches and maintaining Token Ring VLAN information as traffic goes between switches, use the encapsulation tr-isl trbrf-vlan subinterface configuration command. To disable the TRISL configuration, use the no form of this command.

encapsulation tr-isl trbrf-vlan vlanid bridge-num bridge-number

no encapsulation tr-isl trbrf-vlan vlanid bridge-num bridge-number

Syntax Description

vlanid

Number identifying the VLAN.

bridge-num bridge-number

Keyword and bridge number assigned to the ISL trunk. Possible values are 01 to 15.


Defaults

No default behavior or values.

Command Modes

Subinterface configuration

Examples

The following example enables TRISL is on a Fast Ethernet subinterface:

interface Fast Ethernet4/0.2 
encapsulation tr-isl trbrf-vlan 999 bridge-num 14

Related Commands

Command
Description

clear drip counters

Clears DRiP counters.

clear vlan statistics

Removes virtual LAN statistics from any statically or system configured entries.

multiring

Enables collection and use of RIF information.

multiring trcrf-vlan

Creates a pseudoring to terminate the RIF for source-routed traffic and assigns it to a VLAN.

show drip

Displays the status of the DRiP database.

show vlans

Displays virtual LAN subinterfaces.

source-bridge trcrf-vlan

Attaches a TrCRF VLAN to the virtual ring of the router.


multiring trcrf-vlan

To create a pseudoring to terminate the RIF for source-routed traffic and assign it to a VLAN, use the multiring trcrf-vlan interface configuration command. To disable the caching of RIFs on the subinterface, use the no form of this command.

multiring trcrf-vlan vlanid ring ring-number

no multiring trcrf-vlan vlanid ring ring-number

Syntax Description

vlanid

VLAN ID number.

ring ring-number

Keyword and the logical ring number for Token Ring VLANs. Possible values are 01 to 4095.


Defaults

Disabled

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Release
Modification

11.3(4)T

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

When you use this command, you must also use the multiring command to enable the collection and caching of RIFs with routed protocols. The multiring trcrf-vlan command must be issued before the multiring command.

Examples

In the following example, the multiring trcrf-vlan command is used to configure a pseudoring for the subinterface:

interface Fast Ethernet4/0.1
 ip address 5.5.5.1 255.255.255.0
 encapsulation tr-isl trbrf-vlan 999 bridge-num 14
 multiring trcrf-vlan 1000 ring 100
  multiring all
