Usage Guidelines
By default, the TCP servers for Echo, Discard, Chargen, and Daytime services are disabled.
When the minor TCP/IP servers are disabled, access to the Echo, Discard, Chargen, and Daytime ports cause the Cisco IOS software to send a TCP RESET packet to the sender and discard the original incoming packet.
Examples
The following example enables minor TCP/ IP services available from the network:
Router(config)# service tcp-small-servers
service telnet-zero-idle
To set the TCP window to zero (0) when the Telnet connection is idle, use the service telnet-zero-idle command in global configuration mode. To disable this service, use the no form of this command.

Usage Guidelines
Normally, data sent to noncurrent Telnet connections is accepted and discarded. When the service telnet-zero-idle command is enabled, if a session is suspended (that is, some other connection is made active or the EXEC is sitting in command mode), the TCP window is set to zero. This action prevents the remote host from sending any more data until the connection is resumed. Use this command when it is important that all messages sent by the host be seen by the users and the users are likely to use multiple sessions.
Do not use this command if your host will eventually time out and log out a TCP user whose window is zero.
Examples
The following example sets the TCP window to zero when the Telnet connection is idle:
Router(config)# service telnet-zero-idle

service timestamps
To configure the system to time-stamp debugging or system logging messages, use one of the service timestamps commands in global configuration mode. To disable this service, use the no form of this command.
service timestamps [debug | log] [ uptime | datetime [msec] [localtime] [show-timezone] [year] ]
no service timestamps [debug | log]
Syntax Description
debug
|
Indicates that the timestamp should be applied to debugging messages.
|
log
|
Indicates that the timestamp should be applied to system logging messages.
|
uptime
|
Time stamp with the time since the system was rebooted. The time stamp format for uptime is HHHH:MM:SS.
|
datetime
|
Time stamp with the date and time. The time stamp format for datetime is MMM DD HH:MM:SS.
|
msec
|
(Optional) Include milliseconds in the time stamp.
|
localtime
|
(Optional) Time stamp relative to the local time zone.
|
year
|
Include the year in the datetime format.
|
show-timezone
|
(Optional) Include the time zone name in the time stamp.
|
Defaults
No time-stamping.
If the service timestamps command is specified with no arguments or keywords, the default is service timestamps debug uptime.
The default for the service timestamps type datetime command is to format the time in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), with no milliseconds and no time zone name.
The no service timestamps command by itself disables time stamps for both debug and log messages.
To set the local timezone, use the clock timezone zone hours-offset command in global configuration mode.

12.2(15)T
|
The year keyword was added.
|
Usage Guidelines
Time stamps can be added to either debugging or logging messages independently. The uptime form of the command adds time stamps in the format HHHH:MM:SS, indicating the time since the system was rebooted. The datetime form of the command adds time stamps in the format MMM DD HH:MM:SS, indicating the date and time according to the system clock.
The timestamp will be preceeded by an asterisk or period if the time is potentially inaccurate. Table 43 describes the symbols that proceed the timestamp.

Usage Guidelines
Setup mode gives you the option of configuring your system without using the Cisco IOS Command Line Interface (CLI). For some tasks, you may find it easier to use Setup than to enter Cisco IOS commands individually. For example, you might want to use Setup to add a protocol suite, to make major addressing scheme changes, or to configure a newly installed interface. Although you can use the CLI to make these changes, Setup provides you with a high-level view of the configuration and guides you through the configuration process.
If you are not familiar with Cisco products and the CLI, Setup is a particularly valuable tool because it prompts you for the specific information required to configure your system.
Note
If you use the Setup mode to modify a configuration because you have added or modified the hardware, be sure to verify the physical connections using the show version EXEC command. Also, verify the logical port assignments using the show running-config EXEC command to ensure that you configure the correct port. Refer to the hardware documentation for your platform for more information on physical and logical port assignments.
Before using the Setup mode, you should have the following information so that you can configure the system properly:
•
Which interfaces you want to configure
•
Which routing protocols you wish to enable
•
Whether the router is to perform bridging
•
Network addresses for the protocols being configured
•
Password strategy for your environment
When you enter the setup EXEC command after first-time startup, an interactive dialog called the System Configuration Dialog appears on the system console screen. The System Configuration Dialog guides you through the configuration process. It prompts you first for global parameters and then for interface parameters. The values shown in brackets next to each prompt reflect either the default settings or the last configured setting.
The prompts and the order in which they appear on the screen vary depending on the platform and the interfaces installed in the device.
You must progress through the System Configuration Dialog until you come to the item that you intend to change. To accept default settings for items that you do not want to change, press the Return or Enter key. The default choice is indicated by square brackets (for example, [yes]) before the prompt colon (:).
To exit Setup mode and return to privileged EXEC mode without making changes and without progressing through the entire System Configuration Dialog, press Ctrl-C.
The facility also provides help text for each prompt. To access help text, press the question mark (?) key at a prompt.
When you complete your changes, the system will automatically display the configuration file that was created during the Setup session. It also asks you if you want to use this configuration. If you answer Yes, the configuration is saved to NVRAM as the startup configuration file. If you answer No, the configuration is not saved and the process begins again. There is no default for this prompt; you must answer either Yes or No.
Examples
The following example displays the setup command facility to configure serial interface 0 and to add ARAP and IP/IPX PPP support on the asynchronous interfaces:

Usage Guidelines
The show bootvar command replaces the show boot command.
The show bootvar command allows you to view the current settings for the following variables:
•
BOOT
•
CONFIG_FILE
•
BOOTLDR
The BOOT variable specifies a list of bootable images on various devices. The CONFIG_FILE variable specifies the configuration file used during system initialization. The BOOTLDR variable specifies the Flash device and filename containing the rxboot image that ROM uses for booting. You set these variables with the boot system, boot config, and boot bootldr global configuration commands, respectively.
When you use this command on a device with multiple RSP cards (Dual RSPs), this command also shows you the variable settings for both the master and slave RSP card.
Examples
The following is sample output from the show bootvar command:
CONFIG_FILE variable = nvram:
Current CONFIG_FILE variable = slot0:router-config
BOOTLDR variable not exist
Configuration register is 0x0
In the sample output, the BOOT variable contains a null string. That is, a list of bootable images is not specified.
The CONFIG_FILE variable points to the configuration file in NVRAM as the startup (initialization) configuration. The run-time value for the CONFIG_FILE variable points to the router-config file on the Flash memory card inserted in the first slot of the RSP card. That is, during the run-time configuration, you have modified the CONFIG_FILE variable using the boot config command, but you have not saved the run-time configuration to the startup configuration. To save your run-time configuration to the startup configuration, use the copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config command. If you do not save the run-time configuration to the startup configuration, then the system reverts to the saved CONFIG_FILE variable setting for initialization information upon reload. In this sample, the system reverts to NVRAM for the startup configuration file.
The BOOTLDR variable does not yet exist. That is, you have not created the BOOTLDR variable using the boot bootldr global configuration command.
The following example is output from the show bootvar command for a Cisco 7513 router configured for HSA:
Current CONFIG_FILE variable =
BOOTLDR variable does not exist
Configuration register is 0x0
current slave is in slot 7
BOOTLDR variable does not exist
Configuration register is 0x0

Description
|
Buffer elements
|
Small structures used as placeholders for buffers in internal operating system queues. Used when a buffer may need to be on more than one queue.
|
free list
|
Total number of the currently unallocated buffer elements.
|
max allowed
|
Maximum number of buffers that are available for allocation.
|
hits
|
Count of successful attempts to allocate a buffer when needed.
|
misses
|
Count of buffer allocation attempts that resulted in growing the buffer pool to allocate a buffer.
|
created
|
Count of new buffers created to satisfy buffer allocation attempts when the available buffers in the pool have already been allocated.
|
Public buffer pools:
|
Small buffers
|
Buffers that are 104 bytes long.
|
Middle buffers
|
Buffers that are 600 bytes long.
|
Big buffers
|
Buffers that are 1524 bytes long.
|
VeryBig buffers
|
Buffers that are 4520 bytes long.
|
Large buffers
|
Buffers that are 5024 bytes long.
|
Huge buffers
|
Buffers that are 18,024 bytes long.
|
total
|
Total number of this type of buffer.
|
permanent
|
Number of these buffers that are permanent.
|
peak
|
Maximum number of buffers created (highest total) and the time when that peak occurred. Formats include weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds. Not all systems report a peak value, which means this field may not display in output.
|
free list
|
Number of available or unallocated buffers in that pool.
|
min
|
Minimum number of free or unallocated buffers in the buffer pool.
|
max allowed
|
Maximum number of free or unallocated buffers in the buffer pool.
|
hits
|
Count of successful attempts to allocate a buffer when needed.
|
misses
|
Count of buffer allocation attempts that resulted in growing the buffer pool in order to allocate a buffer.
|
trims
|
Count of buffers released to the system because they were not being used. This field is displayed only for dynamic buffer pools, not interface buffer pools, which are static.
|
created
|
Count of new buffers created in response to misses. This field is displayed only for dynamic buffer pools, not interface buffer pools, which are static.
|
Interface buffer pools:
|
total
|
Total number of this type of buffer.
|
permanent
|
Number of these buffers that are permanent.
|
free list
|
Number of available or unallocated buffers in that pool.
|
min
|
Minimum number of free or unallocated buffers in the buffer pool.
|
max allowed
|
Maximum number of free or unallocated buffers in the buffer pool.
|
hits
|
Count of successful attempts to allocate a buffer when needed.
|
fallbacks
|
Count of buffer allocation attempts that resulted in falling back to the public buffer pool that is the smallest pool at least as big as the interface buffer pool.
|
max cache size
|
Maximum number of buffers from the pool of that interface that can be in the buffer pool cache of that interface. Each interface buffer pool has its own cache. These are not additional to the permanent buffers; they come from the buffer pools of the interface. Some interfaces place all of their buffers from the interface pool into the cache. In this case, it is normal for the free list to display 0.
|
failures
|
Total number of times a buffer creation failed. The failure may have occurred because of a number of different reasons, such as low processor memory, low IOMEM, or no buffers in the pool when called from interrupt context.
|
no memory
|
Number of times there has been low memory during buffer creation. Low or no memory during buffer creation may not necessarily mean that buffer creation failed; memory can be obtained from an alternate resource such as a fallback pool.

Usage Guidelines
The software clock keeps an "authoritative" flag that indicates whether the time is authoritative (believed to be accurate). If the software clock has been set by a timing source (for example, via NTP), the flag is set. If the time is not authoritative, it will be used only for display purposes. Until the clock is authoritative and the "authoritative" flag is set, the flag prevents peers from synchronizing to the software clock.
The symbol that precedes the show clock display indicates the following:
Symbol
|
Description
|
Example
|
*
|
Time is not authoritative: the software clock is not in sync or has never been set.
|
*15:29:03.158 UTC Tue Feb 25 2003:
|
(blank)
|
Time is authoritative: the software clock is in sync or has just been set manually
|
15:29:03.158 UTC Tue Feb 25 2003:
|
.
|
Time is authoritative, but NTP is not synchronized: the software clock was in sync, but has since lost contact with all configured NTP servers
|
.15:29:03.158 UTC Tue Feb 25 2003:
|
These symbols are also used in NTP-based timestamping, such as for syslog (SEM) messages.
Note
In general, NTP synchronization takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
Examples
The following sample output shows that the current clock is authoritative and that the time source is NTP:
Router> show clock detail
15:29:03.158 PST Tue Feb 25 2003
The following example shows the current clock is authoritative, but NTP is not yet synchronized:
.16:42:35.597 UTC Tue Feb 25 2003

11.0
|
This command was introduced in a release prior to Cisco IOS Release 11.0.
|
Usage Guidelines
The Cisco link service (CLS) is used as the interface between data link users (DLUs), such as DLSw, LAN Network Manager (LNM), downstream physical unit (DSPU), and SNASw, and their corresponding data link circuits (DLCs) such as Logic Link Control (LLC), VDLC, and Qualified Logic Link Control (QLLC). Each DLU registers a particular service access point (SAP) with CLS, and establishes circuits through CLS over the DLC.
The show cls command displays the SAP values associated with the DLU and the circuits established through CLS.
For further information about CLS, use the Cisco IOS Bridging and IBM Networking Configuration Guide.
Examples
The following is sample output from the show cls command:
DTE:1234.4000.0001 1234.4000.0002 04 04
T1 timer:0 T2 timer:0 Inact timer:0
max out:0 max in:0 retry count:10
XID retry:10 XID timer:5000 I-Frame:0
flow:0 DataIndQ:0 DataReqQ:0
The following is sample output from the show cls brief command:
IBD-4500B# show cls brief
DTE:1234.4000.0001 1234.4000.0002 04 04
Bridging VDLC VDLC650
The examples show two DLUs—SNASw and DLSw—active in the router. SNASw uses a SAP value of 0x04, and the associated DLC port is VDLC650. SNASw has a circuit established between MAC addresses 1234.4000.0001 and 1234.4000.0002 using source and destination SAPs 04 and 04. DLSw is a bridging protocol and uses VDLC1000 and VDLC650 ports. There are no circuits in place at this time.
In the output from the show cls command (without the brief argument), the values of timers and counters applicable to this circuit are displayed.

|
Usage Guidelines
The regular-expression argument is case sensitive and allows for complex matching requirements. Use parenthesis to indicate a literal use of spaces. For example, | begin u indicates that the show output should begin with any line that contains a u; | begin ( u) indicates that the show output should begin with any line that contains a space and a u together (line has a word that begins with a lowercase u).
To search the remaining output of the show command, use the following command at the --More-- prompt:
/regular-expression
You can specify a filtered search at any --More-- prompt. To filter the remaining output of the show command, use one of the following commands at the --More-- prompt:
-regular-expression
+regular-expression
When output volume is large, the search can produce long lists of output. To interrupt the output, press Ctrl-^ (Ctrl-Shift-6) or Ctrl-z.
Note
Once you specify a filter for a show command, you cannot specify another filter at the next --More-- prompt. The first specified filter remains until the more command output finishes or until you interrupt the output. The use of the keyword begin does not constitute a filter.
Because prior output is not saved, you cannot search or filter backward through prior output.
Note
A few show commands that have long output requirements do not require user input at the --More-- prompt to jump to the next table of output; these types of output require you to enter the same number of Ctrl-^ or Ctrl-Z combinations as there are --More-- prompts to completely abort output.
Examples
The following is partial sample output of the show interface | begin command that begins unfiltered output with the first line that contains the regular expression "Ethernet." At the --More-- prompt, the user specifies a filter to show only the lines in the remaining output that contain the regular expression "Serial."
Router# show interface | begin Ethernet
Ethernet0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is Lance, address is 0060.837c.6399 (bia 0060.837c.6399)

At the --More-- prompt, the user searches for the regular expression "Serial0," which continues the filtered output with the first line that contains "Serial0."
Router# show buffers | exclude 0 misses

show command | include regular-expression
Syntax Description
command
|
Any supported show command.

A vertical bar (the "pipe" symbol) indicates that an output processing specification follows.
|
regular-expression
|
Any regular expression found in show command output. Use parenthesis to include spaces in the expression.
|

Usage Guidelines
The regular-expression argument is case sensitive and allows for complex matching requirements.
You can specify a new search at every --More-- prompt. To search the remaining output of the show command, use the following syntax at the --More-- prompt:
/regular-expression
When output volume is large, the search can produce long lists of output. To interrupt the output, press Ctrl-^ (Ctrl-Shift-6) or Ctrl-Z.
Because prior output is not saved, you cannot search or filter backward through prior output.
Note
A few show commands that have long output requirements do not require user input at the --More-- prompt to jump to the next table of output; these types of output require you to enter the same number of Ctrl-^ or Ctrl-Z combinations as there are --More-- prompts to completely abort output.
Examples
The following is partial sample output of the show interface | include command. It displays only lines that contain the regular expression "( is )." The parentheses force the inclusion of the spaces before and after "is." Use of the parenthesis ensures that only lines containing "is" with a space both before and after it will be included in the output. Lines with words like "disconnect" will be excluded because there are not spaces around the instance of the string "is".

The addition of this syntax redirects the command output to the file location specified in the Universal Resource Locator (URL). The pipe (|) is required.
The Cisco IOS File System (IFS) uses URLs to specify the location of a file system, directory, and file. Typical URL elements include:
prefix:[directory/]filename
Prefixes can be local file locations, such as flash: or disk0:. Alternatively, you can specify network locations using the following syntax:
ftp:[[//[username[:password]@]location]/directory]/filename
tftp:[[//location]/directory]/filename
The rcp: prefix is not supported.

Usage Guidelines
To display all URL prefixes that are supported for this command, use the show command | tee ? command.
The tee keyword was chosen to reflect that output is redirected to two locations; the terminal and a file (as a tee plumbing junction redirects water to two different pipes).
Examples
In the following example, output from the show tech-support command is displayed on-screen while it is written to the file "showoutput.txt" at the host 172.16.101.101 using TFTP:
Router# show tech-support | tee tftp://172.16.101.101/docs/showoutput.txt
The following example performs the same function as above, but in this case the output is added at the end of any existing data in the file "showoutput.txt":
Router# show tech-support | tee /append tftp://172.16.101.101/docs/showoutput.txt
