snasw cpname

To define a control point (CP) name for SNASw, use the snasw cpname command in global configuration mode. To deactivate SNASw and remove the CP definition, use the no form of this command.

snasw cpname {netid.cpname | netid [hostname | ip-address interface-name]} [hung-pu-awareness timer-value] [hung-session-awareness timer-value] [locate-timeout timeout-value] [max-pacing-window max-value] [remove-rscvs] [station-segmentation]

no snasw cpname

Syntax Description

netid.cpname

Fully qualified CP name for this node, consisting of both network ID and CP name.

netid

Partial CP name, which consists of only a network ID. If this option is selected, you must also configure the hostname or IP address operands to complete the fully qualified CP name.

hostname

(Optional) Indicates a CP name that is defined by using the hostname which is configured on the router. When configuring this operand, code a netid only. The last eight characters of the hostname are used to complete the CP name.

ip-address interface-name

(Optional) Indicates the CP name that is defined by deriving the CP name from the IP address on the interface that is indicated in the interface-name. When configured, this operand requires a netid operand. In addition, a portion of the CP name can be configured. The remaining characters of the CP name that are not configured are generated from the IP address that is indicated.

The generated characters are derived from a hexadecimal format of the IP address for the interface that is specified.

hung-pu-awareness timer-value

(Optional) Indicates the interval at which Dependent Logical Unit Requestor (DLUR) supported physical units (PUs) are checked to see if they are hung in a pending activate PU state. If a PU is in this state for two consecutive iterations of this timer, then the PU is considered hung. No attempt is made to recover the hung PU, but for diagnostic purposes message DLUR_LOG_23 (A REQACTPU RSP has not been received. Possible hung PU problem) is written to the problem determination log. If the PU later becomes activated, message DLUR_LOG_24 (A PU previously logged as possibly hung is no longer possibly hung) is issued. The valid range is from 5 to 65535 seconds. If this keyword is not specified, the default timer-value is 300 seconds.

hung-session-awareness timer-value

(Optional) Indicates the length of time when a new intermediate session that is still in a non-active state is considered hung. No attempt is made to clean up the hung session, but for diagnostic purposes message SCM_LOG_16 (Slow session activation detected) is issued. The valid range is from 5 to 65535 seconds. If this keyword is not specified, the default timer-value is 180 seconds.

locate-timeout timeout-value

(Optional) Indicates the time when an Advanced Peer to Peer Networking (APPN) Locate Search message is considered lost and is cleaned up. This will likely result in the failure of the session for which the Locate Search message was sent. When this condition occurs message DS_LOG_18 (Locate search timed out) is issued. The valid range is from 0 to 65535 seconds. A value of 0 indicates that no timeout occurs. A value from 1 to 29 seconds is rounded up to 30 seconds. If this keyword is not specified the default timeout-value is 540 seconds.

max-pacing-window max-value

(Optional) Indicates the upper limit of the Receive Pacing window size for intermediate sessions. When variable pacing is used, the Receive Pacing window size will not exceed this value. It may be necessary to configure a small Receive Pacing window size (such as 7) to improve performance when both batch and interactive traffic share the same network. The valid range is from 7 to 65535. If a value is not specified, the default is 64.

remove-rscvs

(Optional) Indicates that Route Selection Control Vectors (RSCVs) will be removed from incoming BINDs that are received from an upstream node before forwarding the BINDs downstream. Removing RSCVs from BINDs enables a downstream network node (NN) that is connected over a low entry networking (LEN) link to receive the BINDs and forward them to the destination node.

station-segmentation

(Optional) Sends all segments (for example, FIS, MIS, and LIS) to a particular LU before sending segments to another LU, which prevents PU 2.0 devices (that do not support segment interleaving) from generating sense code 80070000. Use this keyword for XID0 devices.

Usage Guidelines

You can also deactivate SNASw without removing the snasw cpname definition by using the snasw stop privileged EXEC command which enables you to stop and restart SNASw without losing the SNASw configuration. If you use no snasw cpname, all SNASw configuration commands that were entered will be lost.

Coding a CP name is required for SNASw. Only one snasw cpname command is allowed at a time. You cannot change the snasw cpname command without first deleting the previous definition by using the no form of the command. If SNASw is active, the no form deactivates it. If SNASw is inactive, using snasw cpname activates it.

Examples

Usage Guidelines

The snasw dlcfilter command is typically used to limit the output of the snasw dlctrace command to a manageable amount of trace data. Running the snasw dlctrace consumes CPU and memory. Using the snasw dlctrace command limits the CPU and memory consumption to only the frames that are targeted for tracing.

Up to four different types of filters can be in place at once. If multiple filters are coded for all filters except the type filter, the frame must to pass only a single filter to be included in the trace. If the type filter is coded, the frame must pass the type filter and at least one of the other filters that is coded to be included in the trace.

Examples

The following are examples of how to configure the snasw dlcfilter command:

snasw dlcfilter link cmc1link

snasw dlctrace

To trace frames arriving and leaving Switching Services (SNASw), use the snasw dlctrace command in global configuration mode. To deactivate the capture of frame data and free the storage buffer used to capture the data, use the no form of this command.

snasw dlctrace [buffer-size buffer-size-value] [file filename [timestamp]] [frame-size frame-size-value | auto-terse] [format [brief | detail | analyzer]] [nostart]

no snasw dlctrace

Syntax Description

buffer-size buffer-size-value

(Optional) Specifies the size (in kilobytes) of the data-link control (DLC) trace buffer requested. The minimum buffer size is 100, and the maximum is 64000.

file filename

(Optional) Specifies the filename for the DLC trace buffer file when this file is written to the file server. Use the following format: protocol://host/path/filename.

If the output file size exceeds 32MB, the first 32MB will be in the file with the name filename, the next 32MB will be in the file with the name filename.01, and so on. Note that with formatting, the output may be of different size than the buffer-size.

timestamp

(Optional) Appends the current date and time to the end of the file when it is dumped.

frame-size frame-size-value

(Optional) Indicates the size of the frame that is traced within the DLC trace. All data beyond the size value is truncated and is not included in the trace. The default is that the entire frame is traced.

auto-terse

(Optional) Indicates that logical unit (LU)-LU and system services control points (SSCP)-LU session data frames should be truncated after the Systems Network Architecture (SNA) request/response (RH). Also truncates NMVTs on the SSCP-physical unit (PU) session. Control frames (for example, exchange identification [XID], BIND, Activate Physical Unit [ACTPU]) are traced in their entirety.

format

(Optional) Indicates the format the DLC trace is written to when writing to a file server. Valid values are brief, detail, and analyzer:

brief

(Optional) Indicates that a text file is written with a one-line-per-frame summary for each frame.

detail

(Optional) Indicates that a text file is written with a frame summary line followed by a complete hexadecimal dump of the frame.

analyzer

(Optional) Indicates a binary file is generated that is readable by several popular network analyzer products. This format uses the Network Associates Sniffer file format.

nostart

(Optional) Indicates that the specified trace is not to be started when the subsystem is started.


Defaults

Tracing is off.
If a value for the buffer-size-value argument is not specified, then the default is 500, creating a 500-KB buffer.

The maximum allowed value of the buffer-size-value argument was increased to 6400.


Usage Guidelines

Use the snasw dlctrace command when directed by service personnel or when analysis of frame data entering and leaving SNASw is necessary.

The snasw dlctrace command copies frames into a memory buffer, which can degrade router performance. Therefore, care should be taken when using this command. When issued on a highly used system, the snasw dlcfilter command should be used in conjunction with the snasw dlctrace command to limit the output of the trace.

Use the snasw dump command to dump the trace data to a file server or the show snasw dlctrace command to display captured frames on the console.

When the analyzer format is used, portions of the frame are reconstructed from their actual representation on the data link. Because of this format, portions of the data in the header portion of the frame are modified. Specifically, if Routing Information Field (RIF) data was present on the actual data-link frame, that information is omitted in the dlctrace. In addition, information in the Logical Link Control (LLC) header (for example, Nr, Ns counts) is not reliably transferred to the traced frame. However, the remainder of the frame, including all Systems Network Architecture (SNA) content, is a reliable representation of the frame as it appeared on the actual upstream or downstream link.

Examples

The following are examples of how to configure the snasw dlctrace command:

snasw dlus

To specify parameters related to Dependent Logical Unit Requestor (DLUR) or Dependent Logical Unit Server (DLUS) functionality, use the snasw dlus command in global configuration mode. To remove the data specified in a previous snasw dlus command, use the no form of this command.

snasw dlus primary-dlus-name [backup backup-dlus-name] [prefer-active] [retry interval count] [once]

no snasw dlus

Syntax Description

primary-dlus-name

Specifies the fully qualified name of the primary DLUS (3 to 17 characters).

backup backup-dlus-name

(Optional) Indicates configuration of a backup DLUS. A backup DLUS is used when the primary DLUS is unreachable or cannot service a specific downstream device. The fully qualified name of the backup DLUS is 3 to 17 characters in length.

prefer-active

(Optional) Indicates that if an active DLUR or DLUS connection was established, an incoming physical unit (PU) will retry exclusively on the active DLUS connection and will not attempt to connect to a different DLUS.

retry interval count

(Optional) Indicates that the DLUR retry parameters follow this statement. The interval argument indicates the time period between attempts to connect a DLUS if one is not serving a specific PU. The count argument indicates the number of times the current or primary DLUS is retried before an attempt is made to connect to a backup or inactive DLUS.

once

(Optional) Instructs the DLUR to attempt only one retry cycle (with primary and backup (if configured) DLUS, according to either the default retry values or to the retry values specified by the retry keyword) to request DLUS services. If the service requests are not answered, the downstream link will be disconnected.

Usage Guidelines

Only one snasw dlus command is allowed at a time. The snasw dlus command cannot be changed without first deleting the previous definition using the no form of the command.

The prefer-active keyword supersedes the once keyword, which means that if the prefer-active keyword is configured and there is an active DLUS, then all DLUS services requests will be negotiated only with the active DLUS. The DLUR will not send DLUS service requests to other DLUSs. In this situation, the once keyword has no effect.

Syntax Description

all

Indicates that all configured trace and problem determination buffers should be transferred. The file keyword must be configured on the enabling configuration command for the buffers to be dumped. Traces that run but do not have the (See the "Usage Guidelines Section.) file keyword coded are not transferred.

dlctrace

Indicates that the data-link control (DLC) trace buffer is transferred to a file server. If file keyword is configured on the snasw dlctrace command, the URL specified is used for transferring the DLC trace file. If file keyword is not configured on the snasw dlctrace command, the transfer protocol defaults to TFTP, and the user is prompted for the remote host and filename for the transferred file.

ipstrace

Indicates that the InterProcess Signal (IPS) trace buffer is transferred to a file server. If the file is configured on the snasw ipstrace command, the URL specified is used for transferring the ipstrace file. If file keyword is not configured on the snasw ipstrace command, the transfer protocol defaults to TFTP, and the user is prompted for the remote host and filename for the transferred file.

summary-ipstrace

The snasw ipstrace command copies frames into a memory buffer, which can affect router performance. Therefore, care should be taken when using this command.

The ipstrace information is stored in a cyclic buffer allocated out of main processor memory. Use the snasw dump command to dump the binary trace information to a file server or the show snasw ipstrace command to display captured IPS trace information to the console. The IPS trace is a low-level internal trace.

Examples

The following is an example of how to configure the snasw ipstrace command:

snasw ipstrace buffer-size 1000 file tftp://myhost/path/file

snasw link

To configure upstream links, use the snasw link command in global configuration mode. To remove the configuration of upstream links, use the no form of this command.

snasw link linkname port portname rmac mac-address | ip-dest ip-address [rsap sap-value] [nns] [tgp [high | low | medium | secure]] [nostart]

no snasw link linkname

Syntax Description

linkname

Indicates the one-to-eight character local name for this link. This name is used to identify the link in show and privileged EXEC commands.

port portname

Specifies the Switching Services (SNASw) port from which this link will connect.

rmac mac-address

Specifies the 48-bit MAC address of the destination station. Either this keyword or the ip-dest keyword is required. remote MAC (RMAC) is required for all links associated with ports that are not High-Performance Routing (HPR) or IP ports.

ip-dest ip-address

Indicates the IP address or Domain Name System (DNS) name of the destination stations. Either this keyword or the rmac keyword is required. For all links associated with HPR or IP ports, the ip-dest keyword is required.

rsap sap-value

(Optional) Indicates the destination service access point (SAP) value, which defaults to 4.

nns

(Optional) Configures the adjacent Control Point (CP) as a preferred Network Node Server (NNS). You can specify the nns keyword on more than one link to identify multiple preferred NNSs.

tgp

(Optional) Configures a Transmission Group (TG) characteristic profile for route calculation. All SNASw TGs have the following characteristics in common:

Capacity = 16 megabits per second

Propagation delay = 384 microseconds

User parameter 1 = 128

User parameter 2 = 128

User parameter 3 = 128

However, you can adjust the connect cost, byte cost, and security TG characteristics. Valid values are high, low, medium, and secure.

high

(Optional) Prefers this link over links with a TG profile of medium or low. With this TG profile you can have the following TG characteristics:

Connect cost = 0

Byte cost = 0

Security = Nonsecure

low

(Optional) Prefers this link when links with a TG profile of high or medium are not available. With this TG profile you can have the following TG characteristics:

Connect cost = 255

Byte cost = 255

Security = Nonsecure

medium

(Optional) Prefers this link when links with a TG profile of high are not available. With this TG profile you can have the following TG characteristics:

Connect cost = 196

Byte cost = 196

Security = Nonsecure

secure

(Optional) Prefers this link when a secure TG is required by the APPN class-of-service in use. With this TG profile you can have the following TG characteristics:

Connect cost = 196

Byte cost = 196

Security = Secure public switched network

nostart

(Optional) Indicates that the link will not start automatically when defined.


Defaults

The destination SAP value defaults to 4.

The default TG characteristic profile is medium and nonsecure.

12.0(5)XN

This command was introduced.

12.0(7)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0 T.


Usage Guidelines

Use the snasw link command to configure upstream connections to SNA data hosts, services, and DLUS nodes. Do not use this command to establish downstream connections to client workstations and devices that are serviced by the SNA switch. Configure client workstations and devices to connect into the SNA switch by configuring an outbound connection on these devices that specifies the MAC address of a port that is active on SNASw. SNASw then creates the downstream link dynamically when the workstation or device connects to SNASw.

If using the ip-dest keyword and using a DNS name instead of an IP address, the DNS name is resolved to an IP address at the time the definition is entered (or the time SNASw is started) and will remain resolved to that same address for the duration that SNASw is active. The DNS name is not resolved to an IP address each time the link is restarted.

If the link fails and SNASw switches to a non-preferred NNS (one without the nns keyword configured), SNASw will return CP-CP sessions to the preferred NNS when the NNS link becomes active again. Also, when the nns keyword is configured on a link, that link can be automatically restarted, even after the snasw stop link command is issued. See the snasw stop link command for details.

Examples

The following are examples of how to configure the snasw link command:

snasw link LINKCMC1 port TOKENO rmac 4000.333.4444 rsap 8
snasw link HOSTIP port HPRIP ip-dest 172.18.3.44

12.0(7)T

12.2

Support was added for wildcards in the cpname argument.


Usage Guidelines

The snasw location command is typically used when a low-entry networking node (LEN) node link is established with a destination logical unit (LU). The snasw location command allows Switching Services (SNASw) to route session requests over the LEN node link to the resources named.

When a LEN node connects into an SNASw node, SNASw dynamically learns the CP name of the LEN and places it in its directory. In addition, SNASw dynamically learns the LU names of all LUs on the LEN that initiate independent sessions. Only define the location when an independent logical unit (ILU) on a LEN device is not sharing the node's CP name and does not initiate the first session. In all other cases the LU's location will be learned dynamically.

The directory entry is created the next time the LEN node connects. If there is already a link to the LEN node active and you add a new SNASw location statement, it will not take effect until the next time the LEN CP connects.

Do not use the snasw location command to predefine the location of any resource that can be found dynamically using Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking (APPN) searches (for example, resources on upstream APPN nodes or upstream or downstream ENs).

It is permissible to use the wildcard character "*" in location definitions to allow a definition to generate name associations for multiple devices. When the wildcard character is used for this purpose, the * symbol must be coded in both the resource-name and the cpname argument. If any real device attaches with a CP name that matches the nonwildcard portion of the owning-cp cpname keyword—argument pair specified, a location association will be made that replaces the wildcard characters of the CPname in the position of the resource-name argument. For example, if a definition snasw location NETA.LU*01 owning-cp NETA.CP* is coded and CP with the name NETA.CPABCD connects, then the resource name NETA.LUABCD01 will be defined to SNASw with owning-cp NETA.CPABCD.

You can also use the wildcard character "*" in location definitions to allow a specific device to connect under different CP names, but a single device cannot connect under multiple CP names at the same time. In this case, the * symbol must be used in only the cpname argument and not the resource-name argument. When the device connects with a CP name that matches the nonwildcard portion of the cpname argument, a corresponding location association will be made for the resource-name argument with that CP name.

Examples

The following is an example of how to configure the snasw location command:

snasw location NETA.INDEPLU owning-cp NETA.LENHOSTA

Usage Guidelines

The snasw msgdump command is only invoked the first time the target message is encountered. To trigger automatic dumping after this first instance of the target message, unconfigure and reconfigure the command by entering the no snasw msgdump command followed by the snasw msgdump command.

When the message dump is invoked, an SNA Alert is sent to the local node's Alert focal point. To verify the existance of an Alert focal point, use the show snasw node command and look at the value of the "Alert focal point" entry.

Usually, SNASw will have an Alert focal point when the router's has an active upstream link to a network node server.

If that link is active and there is still no focal point, enter the following command in the NetView mainframe application:

FOCALPT CHANGE,FPCAT=ALERT,TARGET=cpname

where cpname is either the CP name of the NN server for SNASw or the CP name of SNASw itself.

The Alert ID of the SNA Alert sent is x'DAED5B0B'.

no snasw port port-name

Syntax Description

port-name

The one- to eight-character name for the port. This argument is used to refer to this port in informational messages and the show snasw port command.

interface-name

The name of the interface over which the port will communicate. Allowable interfaces are Token Ring, Ethernet, VLAN, or loopback.

hpr-ip

Indicates that the port is High-Performance Routing (HPR)/IP.

hostname v4-or-v6-hostname

(Optional) Specifies a hostname that resolves to IPv4 or IPv6 address associated with the interface, over which the port will communicate. The v4-or-v6-hostname argument can be between 1 and 64 characters in length.

ldlc

(Optional) Overrides the default Logical Data Link Control (LDLC) parameters for all links which use the port. This keyword allows the LDLC parameters for SNASw links to be configured to match those at the other Rapid Transport Protocol (RTP) endpoint, which is often a host z/OS or CS/390.

liveness-time

(Optional) Number of seconds for the liveness timer. This parameter matches the z/OS or CS/390 LIVTIME keyword. The allowed range is from 5 to 25 seconds. Prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.3(8)T, the default was 2 seconds. For releases 12.3(8)T and later, the default is 10 seconds.

t1-retry-time

(Optional) Number of seconds between T1 retry attempts. This parameter matches the z/OS or CS/390 SRQTIME keyword. The allowed range is from 3 to 20 seconds. Prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.3(8)T, the default was 2 seconds. For releases 12.3(8)T and later, the default is 15 seconds.

t1-retry-count

(Optional) Number of times to retry before the HPR-IP TG becomes inoperative. This parameter matches the z/OS or CS/390 SRQRETRY keyword. The allowed range is from 3 to 9 retries. Prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.3(8)T, the default was 10 retries. For releases 12.3(8)T and later, the default is 3 retries.

maxbtu max-btu-size

(Optional) Indicates the maximum basic transmission unit (BTU) size for the remote end (both inbound and outbound). This value is used in XID3 negotiation. The valid range is from 1 to 17800.

vnname virtual-node-name

(Optional) Indicates the network qualified virtual node name 3 to 17 characters) of the connection network being defined.

no-limres

Optional) Indicates that sessions established on the links over this port will be presented as non-limited resources. Because the connection network is treated by default as limited resource, this option prevents the remote end from dropping the sessions prematurely (provided that appropriate definitions are also coded on the remote end, such as DISCNT=NO for Physical Unit (PU) or Model in VTAM).

nostart

(Optional) Indicates that the port will not open automatically when defined.

vdlc ring-group

Indicates that the port is virtual data-link control (VDLC). No interface-name argument is required. The ring-group argument indicates the source-bridge ring group of which this VDLC port is a member.

mac mac-address

Indicates the virtual source MAC address used for the VDLC port.

virtual-TokenRing-interface-name

Indicates the name of the virtual Token Ring interface.

conntype nohpr | len | dyncplen | dialoutlen

(Optional) The conntype keyword indicates the connection type for the port. The connection type can be set to one of four values: nohpr, len, dyncplen, or dialoutlen. If this keyword is not configured, HPR-capable links are established. The nohpr keyword indicates that the HPR is not supported but Advanced Peer-to-Peer Networking (APPN) connections with control point (CP)-CP sessions are permitted. The len keyword indicates that APPN connections are not allowed; only low-entry networking node (LEN) node-level connectivity is negotiated. The dyncplen keyword is specifically intended for users with XID3-capable devices that send CP names, but whose CP names configured on these devices have not been configured uniquely across the devices. Therefore, a unique cpname must be generated and used locally by SNASw to have a properly functioning APPN connection management and directory function. The dialoutlen keyword is used when link activation to a downstream device is driven by the mainframe dial command. The dialoutlen keyword is only needed when LU 6.2 communications are used on this link.

hpr-sap hpr-sap-value

(Optional) Indicates the local HPR-service access point (SAP) value.

max-links link-limit-value

(Optional) Indicates the number of links permitted on this port. When this link limit is reached, the port will not respond to inbound connection requests from stations attempting to connect to this port. Outbound connections are still permitted. The max-links can be coded only on VDLC and Virtual Token Ring port types.

maxbtu max-btu-size

(Optional) Indicates the maximum basic transmission unit (BTU) size for the remote end (both inbound and outbound). This value is used in XID3 negotiation. The valid range is from 1 to 17800.

nns-required

(Optional) Enables configurations with redundant downstream MAC addresses to only allow SNASw nodes that have appropriate upstream connectivity to accept and retain connections from downstream devices.

When a port is configured with the nns-required keyword, the port does not respond to downstream connection requests unless this SNASw node has active CP-CP sessions to an upstream network management system (NNS).

If a connection has already been made through this SNASw node and then upstream NNS CP-CP connectivity is lost, this SNASw node deactivates all non-HPR links using this port that do not have active logical unit (LU)-LU or Intermediate Session Routing (ISR) sessions.


Note This keyword is relevant only for ports that will be accepting downstream connections from devices. It is not relevant for upstream ports.


sap sap-value

(Optional) Indicates the local SAP (LSAP) value.

Usage Guidelines

More than one port can be configured (with different port names). A configured port cannot be redefined without first deleting the port using the no form of the port command.


Note Two ports cannot be defined on the same interface unless different values are configured for the sap and hrp-sap keywords on the ports.



Note SNASw ports do not dynamically adjust to interface configuration changes that are made when SNASw is active. For example, if you change an interface MAC address or maximum transmission unit (MTU), SNASw may not recognize the new value. If you want to make changes to an interface and want SNASw to adjust to the new interface changes, you may need to either delete and redefine the port that is using that interface or stop and restart SNASw.

The interface must be defined before the ports that use them are defined and activated.

SNASw does not support EtherChannel interfaces (neither port-channel interfaces nor Fast Ethernet interfaces configured with the channel-group command). Do not try to configure a SNASw port with either of these EtherChannel interface types.


The interface must be defined before the ports that use the interface are defined and activated. When using the hostname keyword, the hostname must be defined on the interface and be resolved locally by either ip host or ipv6 host commands or by a Domain Name Server before the SNASw port is configured.

Examples

The following are examples of how to configure the snasw port command:

snasw port SRBG Virtual-TokenRing0 conntype nohpr

Usage Guidelines

The arguments for this command should be tuned to match the values specified at the other end of the RTP connection. This endpoint could be another SNA switch router or any other High-Performance Routing (HPR)-capable control point, which will most often be an IBM z/OStm mainframe. In this case, you should match the settings of the HPRPST start option.

The value for each pathswitch timer value must be greater than or equal to the value for the next highest priority timer argument. In other words, the low-priority argument >= medium-priority argument >= high-priority argument >= network-priority argument.

Examples

The following example tunes the RTP pathswitch timers:

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to start the writing of ARB data debug messages (for the RTP specified by local-tcid) to the router log. ARB data is particularly useful for tracking down RTP performance problems, but it can generate a very large number of log entries. For this reason it should be started only when you have already configured the commands no logging console debug and logging buffered debug (with a buffer size large enough so that the required data is does not overflow). You can collect data for more than one RTP at the same time by issuing this command once for each desired RTP local tcid. You can stop the ARB debug data messages for a particular RTP connection by issuing the snasw stop arbdata command.

Usage Guidelines

Use the snasw start cp-cp command if CP-CP sessions fail permanently or temporarily, but beyond the time frame for automatic CP-CP session retry. If the current state of the node mandates that CP-CP sessions cannot be started to the partner (for example, CP-CP sessions already exist on a different upstream link) or no active adjacent CP matches the cpname named, the command fails.

Typically, Switching Services (SNASw) automatically activates CP-CP sessions as necessary and the snasw start cp-cp command is rarely needed. Frequent CP-CP session failure beyond the time frame for automatic session retry indicates a problem, and should be reported.

12.0(7)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0 T.


Usage Guidelines

If the primary National Number (NN) server (uplink) fails, CP-CP sessions are established with a backup, if one is available. When the link to the primary recovers, Switching Services (SNASw) retains the CP-CP sessions established with the backup and does not automatically switch back to the primary. To force SNASw to switch back to the primary, use the snasw stop cp-cp command. (If the link to the backup fails, SNASw does switch back to the primary automatically.)

You can also use the snasw stop cp-cp command to clear some fault scenarios, such as hung or nonresponsive CP sessions, allowing the Systems Network Architecture (SNA) switch to potentially restart sessions with the same or alternate destination logical unit (LU).

Examples

The following is an example of the snasw stop cp-cp command:

source-bridge largest-frame

To configure the largest frame size that is used to communicate with any peers in the ring group, use the source-bridge largest-frame command in global configuration mode. To cancel previous assignments, use the no form of this command.

source-bridge largest-frame ring-group size 

no source-bridge largest-frame ring-group

Syntax Description

ring-group

Ring group number. This ring group number must match the number you have specified with the source-bridge ring-group command. The valid range is from 1 to 4095.

size

Maximum frame size. The default is that no frame size is assigned. The legal values for this argument are 516, 1500, 2052, 4472, 8144, 11407, and 17800 bytes.


Defaults

No frame size is assigned.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History

Release
Modification

10.0

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

The Cisco IOS software negotiates all transit routes down to the specified size or lower. Use the size argument with this command to prevent timeouts in end hosts by reducing the amount of data they must send in a fixed interval. For example, in some networks containing slow links, it would be impossible to send an 8-KB frame and receive a response within a few seconds. These are standard defaults for an application on a 16-Mb Token Ring. If the frame size is lowered to 516 bytes, then only 516 bytes must be sent and a response received in 2 seconds. This feature is most effective in a network with slow links. The legal values for this argument are 516, 1500, 2052, 4472, 8144, 11407, and 17800 bytes.

Examples

The following example sets the largest frame that can be sent through a ring group to 1500 bytes:

source-bridge largest-frame 8 1500

source-bridge passthrough ring-group

no source-bridge passthrough ring-group

Syntax Description

ring-group

Ring group number. This ring is either the start ring or destination ring of the two IBM end machines for which the pass through feature is to be configured. This ring group number must match the number you specified with the source-bridge ring-group command. The valid range is from 1 to 4095.


Defaults

Disabled

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History

Release
Modification

10.0

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

Use this command in conjunction with the source-bridge remote-peer tcp command that has the local-ack keyword specified, which causes every new Logical Link Control, type 2 (LLC2) session to be locally terminated. If a machine on the Token Ring attempts to start an LLC2 session to an end host that exists on the ring-group value specified in the source-bridge passthrough command, the session will "pass through" and not use local acknowledgment for LLC2.

If you specify pass through for a ring, LLC2 sessions will never be locally acknowledged on that ring. This is true even if a remote peer accessing the ring has set the local-ack keyword in the source-bridge remote-peer tcp command. The source-bridge passthrough command overrides any setting in the source-bridge remote-peer tcp command.

You can define more than one source-bridge passthrough command in a configuration.

Examples

The following example configures the router to use local acknowledgment on remote peer at 10.1.1.2 but pass through on rings 9 and 4:

source-bridge ring-group 100
source-bridge remote-peer 100 tcp 10.1.1.1
source-bridge remote-peer 100 tcp 10.1.1.2 local-ack

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

QLLC local acknowledgment is disabled.

Command Modes

Command History

Release
Modification

10.3

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

In a remote source-route bridged topology, QLLC local acknowledgment is used to configure the QLLC conversion router (connecting the remote X.25 devices) to exchange local acknowledgment information with the Token Ring router (on the Token Ring side of the cloud). This Token Ring device has been configured for Logical Link Control, type 2 (LLC2) local acknowledgment using the source-bridge remote-peer tcp local-ack command.

You must issue the source-bridge qllc-local-ack command only on the QLLC conversion router. When this command is issued, all of the QLLC conversion sessions are locally acknowledged at the Token Ring interface of the Token Ring router with which it is communicating using QLLC conversion.

Examples

The following configuration indicates that the local router (10.108.2.2) QLLC conversion sessions will be locally acknowledged at the remote router:

source-bridge ring-group 100
source-bridge remote-peer 100 tcp 10.108.1.1 local-ack
source-bridge remote-peer 100 tcp 10.108.2.2

Modification

11.2

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

Use this command to identify the interface over which to send source-route bridged traffic to another router in the ring group. A serial interface does not require that you include a MAC-level address; all other types of interfaces do require MAC addresses.

You must specify one source-bridge remote-peer command for each peer router that is part of the virtual ring. You must also specify one source-bridge remote-peer command to identify the IP address of the local router.

It is possible to mix all types of transport methods within the same ring group.


Note The two peers using the serial-transport method will function correctly only if there are routers at the end of the serial line that have been configured to use the serial transport. The peers must also belong to the same ring group.


Examples

The following example sends source-route bridged traffic over serial interface 0 and Ethernet interface 0:

! send source-route bridged traffic over serial 0 
source-bridge remote-peer 5 frame-relay interface serial 0 
! specify MAC address for source-route bridged traffic on Ethernet 0

11.1

The tcp-receive-window keyword was added.


Usage Guidelines

If you change the default TCP receive window size on one peer, you must also change the receive window size on the other peer. Both sides of the connection should have the same window size.

If you configure one peer for LLC2 local acknowledgment, you need to configure both peers for LLC2 local acknowledgment. If only one peer is so configured, unpredictable results occur.

You must specify one source-bridge remote-peer command for each peer router that is part of the virtual ring. You must also specify one source-bridge remote-peer command to identify the IP address of the local router.

The two peers using the serial-transport method will function correctly only if there are routers at the end of the serial line that have been configured to use the serial transport. The peers must also belong to the same ring group.

Examples

In the following example, the remote peer with IP address 10.108.2.291 belongs to ring group 5. It also uses LLC2 local acknowledgment, priority, and remote source-route bridging (RSRB) protocol version 2:

! identify the ring group as 5
source-bridge ring-group 5 
! remote peer at IP address 10.108.2.291 belongs to ring group 5, uses
! tcp as the transport, is set up for local acknowledgment, and uses priority
source-bridge remote-peer 5 tcp 10.108.2.291 local-ack priority

The following example shows how to locally administer and acknowledge LLC2 sessions destined for a specific remote peer:

! identify the ring group as 100
source-bridge ring-group 100
! remote peer at IP address 10.1.1.1 does not use local acknowledgment
source-bridge remote-peer 100 tcp 10.1.1.1
! remote peer at IP address 10.1.1.2 uses local acknowledgment
source-bridge remote-peer 100 tcp 10.1.1.2 local-ack
!
interface tokenring 0
 source-bridge 1 1 100

Sessions between a device on Token Ring 0 that must go through remote peer 10.1.1.2 use local acknowledgment for LLC2, but sessions that go through remote peer 10.1.1.1 do not use local acknowledgment (that is, they "pass through").

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

This command must be issued only on a router with a serial interface. Once the command is issued, all SDLLC sessions between the two devices will be locally acknowledged. You cannot selectively choose which SDLLC sessions are to be locally acknowledged and which are not. Also, local acknowledgment is not supported when the Logical Link Control, type 2 (LLC2) station is attached to Ethernet rather than to Token Ring.


Note You must use the TCP encapsulation option if you use local acknowledgment for SDLLC.


Examples

The following example activates local acknowledgment for SDLLC sessions:

source-bridge ring-group 100
source-bridge remote-peer 100 tcp 10.108.1.1 local-ack
source-bridge remote-peer 100 tcp 10.108.2.2

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

The physical interface signal is not tracked.

Command Modes

Modification

12.0(4.1)

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

The state-tracks-signal command is useful in environments where you are using Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) or Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) alerts to monitor channel interface status.

The state-tracks-signal command is valid only on channel interfaces which combine the functions of both a physical and virtual interface. The ESCON Channel Port Adapter (ECPA) and Parallel Channel Port Adapter (PCPA) are examples of this type of channel interface. The command is not valid for the Channel Interface Processor (CIP), which has a separate channel interface for the virtual channel functions.

When the state-tracks-signal command is used on an interface that has been started by the no shutdown command, then the state of the channel interface is reported according to the status of the physical channel interface signal. If the physical channel interface signal is not present, then the channel interface status is DOWN/DOWN.

When the no state-tracks-signal command is enabled on the channel interface (the default), and the interface has been started by the no shutdown command, the channel interface status is always reported as UP/UP, even when there is no signal present on the physical connection. This configuration is useful for TN3270 server environments that are operating in a mode without any physical channel interface connections.

Examples

The following example specifies that the channel interface state tracks the physical channel interface signal and reports the channel interface state according to the presence or absence of the physical interface signal when the interface has been started by the no shutdown command:

interface channel 5/0
 state-tracks-signal

stun group

Usage Guidelines

Before using this command, perform the following steps:

Enable STUN on a global basis with the stun peer-name command.

Define the protocol group in which you want to place this interface using the stun protocol-group command.

Enable STUN on the interface using the encapsulation stun command.

Packets only travel between STUN-enabled interfaces that are in the same group. Once a given serial link is configured for the STUN function, it is no longer a shared multiprotocol link. All traffic that arrives on the link is transported to the corresponding peer as determined by the current STUN configuration.


Examples

The following example places serial interface 0 in STUN group 2, which is defined to run the Synchronous Data Link Control (SDLC) transport:

! sample stun peer-name global command
stun peer-name 10.108.254.6
! sample protocol-group command telling group 2 to use the SDLC protocol

Usage Guidelines

Use the sdlc keyword to specify an SDLC protocol. You must specify either the sdlc or the sdlc-tg keyword before you can enable SDLC local acknowledgment. SDLC local acknowledgment is established with the stun route address tcp command.

Use the basic keyword to specify a non-SDLC protocol, such as high-level data link control (HDLC).

Use the schema keyword to specify a custom protocol. The custom protocol must have been previously created with the stun schema command.

Use the optional sdlc-tg keyword, in conjunction with the sdlc keyword, to establish an SNA TG. A TG is a set of protocol groups providing parallel links to the same pair of IBM establishment controllers. This provides redundancy of paths. In case one or more links go down, an alternate path will be used. All serial tunnel (STUN) connections in a TG must connect to the same IP address. SDLC local acknowledgment must be enabled.


Note If you specify the sdlc keyword in the stun protocol group command string, you cannot specify the stun route all command on that interface.


Examples

The following example specifies that group 7 will use the Synchronous Data Link Control (SDLC) STUN protocol to route frames within that group:

stun protocol-group 7 sdlc

The following example specifies that group 5 use the basic protocol, wherein the serial addressing is unimportant and you have a point-to-point link:

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

STUN quick-response is disabled.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History

Release
Modification

10.3(5)

This command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

This command is used with local acknowledgment (local ack).

When STUN quick-response is enabled, the router responds to an exchange identification (XID) or a Set Normal Response Mode (SNRM) request with a Disconnect Mode (DM) response when the device is not in the CONNECT state. The request is then passed to the remote router and, if the device responds, the reply is cached. The next time the device is sent an XID or SNRM, the router replies with the cached DM response.


Note Using STUN quick-response avoids an AS/400 line reset problem by eliminating the Non-Productive Receive Timer (NPR) expiration in the AS/400. With quick-response enabled, the AS/400 receives a response from the polled device, even when the device is down. If the device does not respond to the forwarded request, the router continues to respond with the cached DM response.


Examples

The following example enables STUN quick-response:

stun route address address-number tcp ip-address [local-ack] [priority] [tcp-queue-max] [passive]

no stun route address address-number tcp ip-address [local-ack] [priority] [tcp-queue-max] [passive]

Syntax Description

address-number

Number that conforms to SDLC addressing conventions.

ip-address

IP address by which this STUN peer is known to other STUN peers that are using the TCP as the STUN encapsulation.

local-ack

(Optional) Enables local acknowledgment for STUN.

priority

(Optional) Establishes the four levels used in priority queueing: low, medium, normal, and high.

tcp-queue-max

(Optional) Sets the maximum size of the outbound TCP queue for the SDLC link. The default is 100.

passive

(Optional) Prevents the STUN peer from initiating a TCP connection. Normally, the STUN peer connects to the SDLC primary device and initiates a TCP connection to another STUN peer. If the STUN peers connect to non-SDLC devices, such as voice equipment, both STUN peers might try to start a TCP connection at the same time, which can delay the TCP connection setup.

The passive keyword, used in STUN basic mode, enables this STUN peer to wait for the other STUN peer to initiate the TCP connection.

Usage Guidelines

SDLC transport participates in SDLC windowing and resending through support of local acknowledgment. SDLC sessions require that end nodes send acknowledgments for a set amount of data frames received before allowing further data to be sent. Local acknowledgment provides local termination of the SDLC session, so that control frames no longer travel the WAN backbone networks. This means that end nodes do not time out, and a loss of sessions does not occur.

Examples

In the following example, a frame with a source-route address of 10 is propagated using TCP encapsulation to a device with an IP address of 10.108.8.1:

stun route address 10 tcp 10.108.8.1

Usage Guidelines

An appropriately configured router must exist on the other end of the designated serial line. The outgoing serial link still can be used for other kinds of traffic (the frame is not TCP encapsulated). This mode is used when TCP/IP encapsulation is not needed or when higher performance is required. Enter the serial line number connected to the router for the number argument.

Examples

In the following example, all traffic on serial interface 0 is propagated using STUN encapsulation:

Usage Guidelines

Use this command before defining the protocol group (stun protocol-group command). The serial protocol you define must meet the following criteria:

The protocol uses full-duplex conventions (Request To Send [RTS]/Clear To Send [CTS] always high).

The protocol uses standard high-level data link control (HDLC) checksum and framing (beginning and end of frames, data between frames).

Addresses are contained in a constant location (offset) within the frame.

Addresses are found on a byte boundary.

Examples

In the following example, a protocol named new-sdlc is created. In the protocol frame structure, the constant offset is 0, the address length is 1 byte, and the address format is hexadecimal.

Specifies the IP address of the channel-attached host using this TG. A host may have more than one IP stack, therefore this is the IP address of the host IP stack as indicated by the HOME statement in the host TCP/IP profile. For HSAS, this address is the host address as indicated by the source-IP-address argument of the oeifconfig command.

local-ip-addr

This address must match an IP address configured on the virtual interface. Specifies the IP address of the router to be used for this TG. This is the IP address of the router as indicated by the DEFAULTNET statement in the host TCP/IP profile. For HSAS, this address is the router IP address as indicated by the destination-IP-address argument of the oeifconfig command.

broadcast

(Optional) Enables the sending of routing updates to the host.

Usage Guidelines

The tg (CMPC+) command is valid only on the Channel Interface Processor (CIP)'s virtual channel interface and the Channel Port Adapter (CPA)'s physical channel interface. This command defines either an IP connection or an HSAS IP connection.

To change any parameter of the tg (CMPC+) command, first remove the existing TG must be removed first by using no tg name command. At a minimum, tg-name must be specified to avoid ambiguity.

The no tg command removes the CMPC+ TG from the configuration. All sessions using the TG are terminated immediately.

Examples

The following example configures a TG name for an HSAS stack configured with CMPC+:

interface Channel0/2
 ip address 10.12.165.1 255.255.255.0
 no ip redirects
 no ip directed-broadcast
 ip route-cache same-interface
 no ip mroute-cache
 no keepalive
 tg TG00 hsas-ip 10.12.165.2 10.12.165.1

The following example configures a TG name for an IP stack configured with CMPC+:

interface Channel0/2
 ip address 10.12.165.1 255.255.255.0
 no ip redirects
 no ip directed-broadcast
 ip route-cache same-interface
 no ip mroute-cache
 no keepalive
 tg TG00 ip 10.12.165.2 10.12.165.1

Description

cmpc

Configures a CMPC (or CMPC+) read subchannel and a CMPC (or CMPC+) write subchannel.


tg delay

To configure the duration of time the router is to wait before ending an Multi-Path Channel (MPC) block and sending it to the host, use the tg delay command in interface configuration mode. To restore the default duration of time, use the no form of this command.

tg tg-name delay delay

no tg tg-name delay

Syntax Description

tg-name

Name of the Cisco Multipath Channel (CMPC+) Transmission Group (TG). The maximum length of the name is eight characters. This name must match the name specified by the cmpc commands.

delay

Duration of delay in milliseconds. Allowed values are from 0 to 20. The default is 10 milliseconds.


Defaults

Usage Guidelines

By default, the tg delay command does not appear in the running configuration. It is displayed in the configuration only when configured for a nondefault value.

Examples

The following example configures a TG delay of 20 milliseconds:

router(config)# interface channel 0/2
router(config-if)# tg TG00 delay 20

The following example resets the TG delay to the default of 10 milliseconds:

router(config-if)# no tg TG00 delay
