interface port-channel

To access or create a port-channel interface, use the interface port-channel command.

interface port-channel channel-group

Syntax Description

channel-group

Port-channel group number; valid values are from 1 to 64.


Defaults

This command has no default settings.

Command Modes

Global configuration mode

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(8a)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

You do not have to create a port-channel interface before assigning a physical interface to a channel group. A port-channel interface is created automatically when the channel group gets its first physical interface, if it is not already created.

You can also create the port channels by entering the interface port-channel command. This will create a Layer 3 port channel. To change the Layer 3 port channel into a Layer 2 port channel, use the switchport command before you assign the physical interfaces to the channel group. A port channel cannot be changed from Layer 3 to Layer 2 or vice versa when it contains member ports.

Only one port channel in a channel group is allowed.


Caution The Layer 3 port-channel interface is the routed interface. Do not enable Layer 3 addresses on the physical Fast Ethernet interfaces.

If you want to use CDP, you must configure it only on the physical Fast Ethernet interface and not on the port-channel interface.

Examples

This example creates a port-channel interface with a channel-group number of 64:

Switch(config)# interface port-channel 64
Switch(config)#

interface range

To run a command on multiple ports at the same time, use the interface range command.

interface range {vlan vlan_id - vlan_id} {port-range | macro name}

Syntax Description

vlan vlan_id - vlan_id

Specifies a VLAN range; valid values are from 1 to 4094.

port-range

Port range; for a list of valid values for port-range, see the "Usage Guidelines" section.

macro name

Specifies the name of a macro.


Defaults

This command has no default settings.

Command Modes

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(8a)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.

12.1(12c)EW

Support for extended VLAN addresses added.


Usage Guidelines

You can use the interface range command on the existing VLAN SVIs only. To display the VLAN SVIs, enter the show running config command. The VLANs that are not displayed cannot be used in the interface range command.

The values that are entered with the interface range command are applied to all the existing VLAN SVIs.

Before you can use a macro, you must define a range using the define interface-range command.

All configuration changes that are made to a port range are saved to NVRAM, but the port ranges that are created with the interface range command do not get saved to NVRAM.

You can enter the port range in two ways:

Specifying up to five port ranges

Specifying a previously defined macro

You can either specify the ports or the name of a port-range macro. A port range must consist of the same port type, and the ports within a range cannot span the modules.

You can define up to five port ranges on a single command; separate each range with a comma.

When you define a range, you must enter a space between the first port and the hyphen (-):

interface range gigabitethernet 5/1 -20, gigabitethernet4/5 -20.

Use these formats when entering the port-range:

interface-type {mod}/{first-port} - {last-port}

interface-type {mod}/{first-port} - {last-port}

Valid values for interface-type are as follows:

FastEthernet

GigabitEthernet

Vlan vlan_id

You cannot specify both a macro and an interface range in the same command. After creating a macro, you can enter additional ranges. If you have already entered an interface range, the CLI does not allow you to enter a macro.

You can specify a single interface in the port-range value. This makes the command similar to the interface interface-number command.

Examples

This example shows how to use the interface range command to interface to FE 5/18 - 20:

Switch(config)# interface range fastethernet 5/18 - 20
Switch(config-if)# 

This command shows how to run a port-range macro:

Switch(config)# interface range macro macro1
Switch(config-if)# 

Related Commands

interface vlan

To create or access a Layer 3 switch virtual interface (SVI), use the interface vlan command. To delete an SVI, use the no form of this command.

interface vlan vlan_id

no interface vlan vlan_id

Syntax Description

vlan_id

Number of the VLAN; valid values are from 1 to 4094.


Defaults

Fast EtherChannel is not specified.

Command Modes

Global configuration mode

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(8a)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.

12.1(12c)EW

Support for extended addressing was added.


Usage Guidelines

The SVIs are created the first time that you enter the interface vlan vlan_id command for a particular VLAN. The vlan_id value corresponds to the VLAN tag that is associated with the data frames on an ISL or 802.1Q-encapsulated trunk or the VLAN ID that is configured for an access port. A message is displayed whenever a VLAN interface is newly created, so you can check that you entered the correct VLAN number.

If you delete an SVI by entering the no interface vlan vlan_id command, the associated interface is forced into an administrative down state and marked as deleted. The deleted interface will no longer be visible in a show interface command.

You can reinstate a deleted SVI by entering the interface vlan vlan_id command for the deleted interface. The interface comes back up, but much of the previous configuration will be gone.

Examples

This example shows the output when you enter the interface vlan vlan_id command for a new VLAN number:

Switch(config)# interface vlan 23
% Creating new VLAN interface.
Switch(config)# 

ip arp inspection filter vlan

To permit ARPs from hosts that are configured for static IP when DAI is enabled and to define an ARP access list and apply it to a VLAN, use the ip arp inspection filter vlan command. To disable this application, use the no form of this command.

ip arp inspection filter arp-acl-name vlan vlan-range [static]

no ip arp inspection filter arp-acl-name vlan vlan-range [static]

Syntax Description

arp-acl-name

Access control list name.

vlan-range

VLAN number or range; valid values are from 1 to 4094.

static

(Optional) Specifies that the access control list should be applied statically.


Defaults

No defined ARP ACLs are applied to any VLAN.

Command Modes

Configuration

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(19)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

When an ARP access control list is applied to a VLAN for dynamic ARP inspection, the ARP packets containing only the IP-to-Ethernet MAC bindings are compared against the ACLs. All other packet types are bridged in the incoming VLAN without validation.

This command specifies that the incoming ARP packets are compared against the ARP access control list, and the packets are permitted only if the access control list permits them.

If the access control lists deny the packets because of explicit denies, the packets are dropped. If the packets are denied because of an implicit deny, they are then matched against the list of DHCP bindings if the ACL is not applied statically.

Examples

This example shows how to apply the ARP ACL "static-hosts" to VLAN 1 for DAI:

Switch# config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# ip arp inspection filter static-hosts vlan 1
Switch(config)# end
Switch#
Switch# show ip arp inspection vlan 1

ip arp inspection limit (interface)

To limit the rate of incoming ARP requests and responses on an interface and prevent DAI from consuming all of the system's resources in the event of a DoS attack, use the ip arp inspection limit command. To release the limit, use the no form of this command.

ip arp inspection limit {rate pps | none} [burst interval seconds]

no ip arp inspection limit

Syntax Description

rate pps

Specifies an upper limit on the number of incoming packets processed per second. The rate can range from 1 to 10000.

none

Specifies no upper limit on the rate of the incoming ARP packets that can be processed.

burst interval seconds

(Optional) Specifies the consecutive interval in seconds over which the interface is monitored for the high rate of the ARP packets. The interval is configurable from 1 to 15 seconds.


Defaults

The rate is set to 15 packets per second on the untrusted interfaces, assuming that the network is a switched network with a host connecting to as many as 15 new hosts per second.

The rate is unlimited on all the trusted interfaces.

The burst interval is set to 1 second by default.

Command Modes

Interface

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(19)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.

12.1(20)EW

Added support for interface monitoring.


Usage Guidelines

The trunk ports should be configured with higher rates to reflect their aggregation. When the rate of the incoming packets exceeds the user-configured rate, the interface is placed into an error-disabled state. The error-disable timeout feature can be used to remove the port from the error-disabled state. The rate applies to both the trusted and nontrusted interfaces. Configure appropriate rates on trunks to handle the packets across multiple DAI-enabled VLANs or use the none keyword to make the rate unlimited.

The rate of the incoming ARP packets onthe channel ports is equal to the sum of the incoming rate of packets from all the channel members. Configure the rate limit for the channel ports only after examining the rate of the incoming ARP packets on the channel members.

After a switch receives more than the configured rate of packets every second consecutively over a period of burst seconds, the interface is placed into an error-disabled state.

Examples

This example shows how to limit the rate of the incoming ARP requests to 25 packets per second:

Switch# config terminal
Switch(config)# interface fa6/3
Switch(config-if)# ip arp inspection limit rate 25
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch# show ip arp inspection interfaces fastEthernet 6/3
Interface        Trust State     Rate (pps)
 ---------------  -----------     ----------
 Fa6/3            Trusted                 25
Switch#

This example shows how to limit the rate of the incoming ARP requests to 20 packets per second and to set the interface monitoring interval to 5 consecutive seconds:

Switch# config terminal
Switch(config)# interface fa6/1
Switch(config-if)# ip arp inspection limit rate 20 burst interval 5
Switch(config-if)# end

ip arp inspection log-buffer

To configure the parameters that are associated with the logging buffer, use the ip arp inspection log-buffer command. To disable the parameters, use the no form of this command.

ip arp inspection log-buffer {entries number | logs number interval seconds}

no ip arp inspection log-buffer {entries | logs}

Syntax Description

entries number

Number of entries from the logging buffer; the range is from 0 to 1024.

logs number

Number of entries to be logged in an interval; the range is from 0 to 1024. A 0 value indicates that entries should not be logged out of this buffer.

interval seconds

Logging rate; the range is from 0 to 86400 (1 day). A 0 value indicates an immediate log.


Defaults

When dynamic ARP inspection is enabled, denied, or dropped, the ARP packets are logged.

The number of entries is set to 32.

The number of logging entries is limited to 5 per second.

The interval is set to 1.

Command Modes

Modification

12.1(19)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

The first dropped packet of a given flow is logged immediately. The subsequent packets for the same flow are registered but are not logged immediately. Registering these packets is done in a log buffer that is shared by all the VLANs. Entries from this buffer are logged on a rate-controlled basis.

Examples

This example shows how to configure the logging buffer to hold up to 45 entries:

Switch# config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# ip arp inspection log-buffer entries 45
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show ip arp inspection log 
Total Log Buffer Size : 45
Syslog rate : 5 entries per 1 seconds.
No entries in log buffer.
Switch#

This example shows how to configure the logging rate to 10 logs per 3 seconds:

Switch(config)# ip arp inspection log-buffer logs 10 interval 3
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show ip arp inspection log
Total Log Buffer Size : 45
Syslog rate : 10 entries per 3 seconds.
No entries in log buffer.

ip arp inspection validate

To perform specific checks for ARP inspection, use the ip arp inspection validate command. To disable checks, use the no form of this command.

ip arp inspection validate [src-mac] [dst-mac] [ip]

no ip arp inspection validate [src-mac] [dst-mac] [ip]

Syntax Description

src-mac

(Optional) Checks the source MAC address in the Ethernet header against the sender's MAC address in the ARP body. This checking is done against both ARP requests and responses.

Note When enabled, packets with different MAC addresses are classified as invalid and are dropped.

dst-mac

(Optional) Checks the destination MAC address in the Ethernet header against the target MAC address in ARP body. This checking is done for ARP responses.

Note When enabled, the packets with different MAC addresses are classified as invalid and are dropped.

ip

(Optional) Checks the ARP body for invalid and unexpected IP addresses. Addresses include 0.0.0.0, 255.255.255.255, and all IP multicast addresses.

The sender IP addresses are checked in all ARP requests and responses and target IP addresses are checked only in ARP responses.


Defaults

Checks are disabled.

Command Modes

Configuration

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(19)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

When enabling the checks, specify at least one of the keywords (src-mac, dst-mac, and ip) on the command line. Each command overrides the configuration of the previous command. If a command enables src and dst mac validations, and a second command enables IP validation only, the src and dst mac validations are disabled as a result of the second command.

The no form of this command disables only the specified checks. If none of the check options are enabled, all the checks are disabled.

Examples

This example show how to enable the source MAC validation:

Switch(config)# ip arp inspection validate src-mac

ip arp inspection vlan logging

To control the type of packets that are logged, use the ip arp inspection vlan logging command. To disable this logging control, use the no form of this command.

ip arp inspection vlan vlan-range logging {acl-match {matchlog | none} | dhcp-bindings {permit | all | none}}

no ip arp inspection vlan vlan-range logging {acl-match | dhcp-bindings}

Syntax Description

vlan-range

Number of the VLANs to be mapped to the specified instance. The number is entered as a single value or a range; valid values are from 1 to 4094.

acl-match

Specifies the logging criteria for packets that are dropped or permitted based on ACL matches.

matchlog

Specifies that logging of packets matched against ACLs is controlled by the matchlog keyword in the permit and deny access control entries of the ACL.

Note By default, the matchlog keyword is not available on the ACEs. When the keyword is used, denied packets are not logged. Packets are logged only when they match against an ACE that has the matchlog keyword.

none

Specifies that ACL-matched packets are not logged.

dhcp-bindings

Specifies the logging criteria for packets dropped or permitted based on matches against the DHCP bindings.

permit

Specifies logging when permitted by DHCP bindings.

all

Specifies logging when permitted or denied by DHCP bindings.

none

Prevents all logging of packets permitted or denied by DHCP bindings.


Defaults

All denied or dropped packets are logged.

Command Modes

Configuration

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(19)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

The acl-match and dhcp-bindings keywords merge with each other. When you set an ACL match configuration, the DHCP bindings configuration is not disabled. You can use the no form of this command to reset some of the logging criteria to their defaults. If you do not specify either option, all the logging types are reset to log on when the ARP packets are denied. The two options that are available to you are as follows:

acl-match—Logging on ACL matches is reset to log on deny

dhcp-bindings—Logging on DHCP binding compared is reset to log on deny

Examples

This example shows how to configure an ARP inspection on VLAN 1 to add packets to a log on matching against the ACLs with the logging keyword:

Switch# config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.

Defaults

The timeout value is set to 300 seconds (5 minutes).

The write-delay value is set to 300 seconds.

Command Modes

Interface configuration mode

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(19)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

You need to create an empty file at the configured URL on network-based URLs (such as TFTP and FTP) before the switch can write the set of bindings for the first time at the URL.


Note Because both NVRAM and bootflash have limited storage capacity, using TFTP or network-based files is recommended . If you use flash to store the database file, new updates (by the agent) result in the creation of new files (flash fills quickly). In addition, due to the nature of the filesystem used on the flash, a large number of files cause access to be considerably slowed. When a file is stored in a remote location accessible through TFTP, an RPR/SSO standby supervisor engine can take over the binding list when a switchover occurs.


Examples

This example shows how to store a database file with the IP address 10.1.1.1 within a directory called directory. A file named file must be present on the TFTP server.

Switch# config terminal
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping database tftp://10.1.1.1/directory/file
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show ip dhcp snooping database 
Agent URL : tftp://10.1.1.1/directory/file

Modification

12.1(8a)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

If you use the default IGMP snooping configuration, the valid query interval values are from 1 to 65535 seconds. If you have changed the default configuration to support CGMP as the IGMP snooping learning method, the valid query interval values are from 1 to 300 seconds.

The designated switch for a LAN is the only switch that sends the IGMP host-query messages. For IGMP version 1, the designated switch is elected according to the multicast routing protocol that runs on the LAN. For IGMP version 2, the designated querier is the lowest IP-addressed multicast switch on the subnet.

If no queries are heard for the timeout period (controlled by the ip igmp query-timeout command), the switch becomes the querier.


Note Changing the timeout period may severely impact multicast forwarding.

Modification

12.1(13)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switches.

12.1(19)EW

Command enhanced to support infer fields.


Usage Guidelines

To use these commands, you need to install the Supervisor Engine IV and the NetFlow Service Card.

The NetFlow statistics feature captures a set of traffic statistics. These traffic statistics include the source IP address, destination IP address, Layer 4 port information, protocol, input and output identifiers, and other routing information that can be used for network analysis, planning, accounting, billing and identifying DoS attacks.

NetFlow switching is supported on IP and IP-encapsulated traffic over all interface types.

If you enter the ip route-cache flow infer-fields command after the ip route-cache flow command, you will purge the existing cache, and vice versa. This action is done to avoid having flows with and without inferred fields in the cache simultaneously.

For additional information on NetFlow switching, refer to the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide.


Note NetFlow consumes additional memory and CPU resources compared to other switching modes. You need to know the resources required on your switch before enabling NetFlow.


Examples

This example shows how to enable NetFlow switching on the switch:

Switch# config terminal
Switch(config)# ip route-cache flow
Switch(config)# exit
Switch# 

Note This command does not work on individual interfaces.


ip source binding

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(19)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

The ip source binding command is used to add a static IP source binding entry only.

The no form of this command deletes the corresponding IP source binding entry. For the deletion to succeed, all required parameters must match.

Each static IP binding entry is keyed by a MAC address and VLAN number. If the CLI contains an existing MAC and VLAN, the existing binding entry will be updated with the new parameters; a separate binding entry will not be created.

Examples

This example shows how to configure the static IP source binding:

Switch# config terminal
Switch(config)# ip source binding 11.0.0.1 0000.000A.000B vlan 10 interface 
fastethernet6/10

ip sticky-arp

To enable sticky ARP, use the ip sticky-arp command. Use the no form of this command to disable sticky ARP.

ip sticky-arp

no ip sticky-arp

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

Enabled

Command Modes

Global configuration mode

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(12c)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

This command is supported on PVLANs only.

ARP entries that are learned on Layer3 PVLAN interfaces are sticky ARP entries. (You should display and verify ARP entries on the PVLAN interface using the show arp command).

For security reasons, sticky ARP entries on the PVLAN interface do not age out. Connecting new equipment with the same IP address generates a message and the ARP entry is not created.

Because the ARP entries on the PVLAN interface do not age out, you must manually remove ARP entries on the PVLAN interface if a MAC address changes.

Unlike static entries, sticky-ARP entries are not stored and restored when you enter the reboot and restart commands.

Examples

This example shows how to enable sticky ARP:

Switch# configure terminal 
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config) ip sticky-arp
Switch(config)# end
Switch#

This example shows how to disable sticky ARP:

Switch# configure terminal

ip verify header vlan all

To enable IP header validation for Layer 2-switched IPv4 packets, use the ip verify header vlan all command. To disable the IP header validation, use the no form of this command.

ip verify header vlan all

no ip verify header vlan all

Syntax Description

This command has no default settings.

Defaults

The IP header is validated for bridged and routed IPv4 packets.

Command Modes

Configuration

Command History

Release
Modification

12.1(20)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

This command does not apply to Layer 3-switched (routed) packets.

The Catalyst 4500 series switch checks the validity of the following fields in the IPv4 header for all switched IPv4 packets:

The version must be 4.

The header length must be greater than or equal to 20 bytes.

The total length must be greater than or equal to four times the header length and greater than the Layer 2 packet size minus the Layer 2 encapsulation size.

If an IPv4 packet fails the IP header validation, the packet is dropped. If you disable the header validation, the packets with the invalid IP headers are bridged but are not routed even if routing was intended. The IPv4 access lists also are not applied to the IP headers.

Examples

This example shows how to disable the IP header validation for the Layer 2-switched IPv4 packets:

Switch# config terminal
Switch(config)# no ip verify header vlan all
Switch(config)# end
Switch#

ip verify source

Command History

Release
Modification

12.2(40)SG

This command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500.


Usage Guidelines

When MLD snooping is globally disabled, it is disabled on all the existing VLAN interfaces. When you globally enable MLD snooping, it is enabled on all VLAN interfaces that are in the default state (enabled). VLAN configuration overrides global configuration on interfaces on which MLD snooping has been disabled.

If MLD snooping is globally disabled, you cannot enable it on a VLAN. If MLD snooping is globally enabled, you can disable it on individual VLANs.

VLAN numbers 1002 through 1005 are reserved for Token Ring and FDDI VLANs and cannot be used in MLD snooping.

Examples

This example shows how to globally enable MLD snooping:

Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#ipv6 mld snooping
Switch(config)#end

Command Default

The default global count is 2.

The default VLAN count is 0 (the global count is used).

Command Modes

Global configuration mode

Command History

Release
Modification

12.2(40)SG

This command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500.


Usage Guidelines

In MLD snooping, the IPv6 multicast switch periodically sends out queries to hosts belonging to the multicast group. If a host wants to leave a multicast group, it can silently leave or it can respond to the query with a Multicast Listener Done message (equivalent to an IGMP Leave message). When Immediate Leave is not configured (it should not be configured if multiple clients for a group exist on the same port), the configured last-listener query count determines the number of MASQs that are sent before an MLD client is aged out.

When the last-listener query count is set for a VLAN, this count overrides the value configured globally. When the VLAN count is not configured (set to the default of 0), the global count is used.

VLAN numbers 1002 through 1005 are reserved for Token Ring and FDDI VLANs and cannot be used in MLD snooping.

Examples

This example shows how to globally set the last-listener query count:

Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#ipv6 mld snooping last-listener-query-count 1
Switch(config)#end
Switch#

This example shows how to set the last-listener query count for VLAN 10:

integer_value

Set the time period (in thousandths of a second) that a multicast switch must wait after issuing a MASQ before deleting a port from the multicast group. The range is 100 to 32,768. The default is 1000 (1 second),


Command Default

The default global query interval (maximum response time) is 1000 (1 second).

The default VLAN query interval (maximum response time) is 0 (the global count is used).

Command Modes

Command History

Release
Modification

12.2(40)SG

This command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500.


Usage Guidelines

The last-listener-query-interval time is the maximum time that a multicast switch waits after issuing a Mulitcast Address Specific Query (MASQ) before deleting a port from the multicast group.

In MLD snooping, when the IPv6 multicast switch receives an MLD leave message, it sends out queries to hosts belonging to the multicast group. If there are no responses from a port to a MASQ for a length of time, the switch deletes the port from the membership database of the multicast address. The last listener query interval is the maximum time that the switch waits before deleting a nonresponsive port from the multicast group.

When a VLAN query interval is set, the global query interval is overridden. When the VLAN interval is set at 0, the global value is used.

VLAN numbers 1002 through 1005 are reserved for Token Ring and FDDI VLANs and cannot be used in MLD snooping.

Examples

This example shows how to globally set the last-listener query interval to 2 seconds:

Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#ipv6 mld snooping last-listener-query-interval 2000
Switch(config)#end

This command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500.


Usage Guidelines

MLD snooping listener message suppression is equivalent to IGMP snooping report suppression. When it is enabled, received MLDv1 reports to a group are forwarded to IPv6 multicast switchs only once in every report-forward time. This prevents the forwarding of duplicate reports.

Examples

This example shows how to enable MLD snooping listener message suppression:

Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#ipv6 mld snooping listener-message-suppression

ipv6 mld snooping robustness-variable

To configure the number of IP version 6 (IPv6) Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) queries that the switch sends before deleting a listener that does not respond, or to enter a VLAN ID to configure the number of queries per VLAN, use the ipv6 mld snooping robustness-variable command. To reset the variable to the default settings, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 mld snooping [vlan vlan-id] robustness-variable integer_value

no ipv6 mld snooping [vlan vlan-id] robustness-variable

Syntax Description

vlan vlan-id

(Optional) Configure the robustness variable on the specified VLAN. The VLAN ID range is 1 to 1001 and 1006 to 4094.

integer_value

The range is 1 to 3.


Command Default

The default global robustness variable (number of queries before deleting a listener) is 2.

The default VLAN robustness variable (number of queries before aging out a multicast address) is 0, which means that the system uses the global robustness variable for aging out the listener.

Command Modes

Global configuration mode

Command History

Release
Modification

12.2(40)SG

This command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500.


Usage Guidelines

Robustness is measured by the number of MLDv1 queries sent with no response before a port is removed from a multicast group. A port is deleted when there are no MLDv1 reports received for the configured number of MLDv1 queries. The global value determines the number of queries that the switch waits before deleting a listener that does not respond, and it applies to all VLANs that do not have a VLAN value set.

The robustness value configured for a VLAN overrides the global value. If the VLAN robustness value is 0 (the default), the global value is used.

VLAN numbers 1002 through 1005 are reserved for Token Ring and FDDI VLANs and cannot be used in MLD snooping.

Examples

This example shows how to configure the global robustness variable so that the switch sends out three queries before it deletes a listener port that does not respond:

Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#ipv6 mld snooping robustness-variable 3
Switch(config)#end
Switch#

issu abortversion

To cancel the ISSU upgrade or the downgrade process in progress and to restore the Catalyst 4500 series switch to its state before the start of the process, use the issue abortversion command.

issu abortversion active-slot [active-image-new]

Syntax Description

active-slot

Specifies the slot number for the current standby supervisor engine.

active-image-new

(Optional) Name of the new image present in the current standby supervisor engine.


Defaults

There are no default settings.

Command Modes

Privileged EXEC mode

Command History

Release
Modification

12.2(31)SGA

This command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

You can use the issu abortversion command at any time to stop the ISSU process to complete the process by entering the issu commitversion command. Before any action is taken, a check ensures that both supervisor engines are either in the run version (RV) or load version (LV) state.

When the issu abortversion command is entered before the issu runversion command, the standby supervisor engine is reset and reloaded with the old image. When the issu abortversion command is entered after the issu runversion command, a change takes place and the new standby supervisor engine is reset and reloaded with the old image.

Examples

This example shows how you can reset and reload the standby supervisor engine:

Switch# issu abortversion 2
Switch# 

Related Commands

issu acceptversion
issu commitversion
issu loadversion

issu acceptversion

To halt the rollback timer and to ensure that the new Cisco IOS software image is not automatically stopped during the ISSU process, use the issu acceptversion command.

issu acceptversion active-slot [active-image-new]

Syntax Description

active-slot

Specifies the slot number for the currently active supervisor engine.

active-image-new

(Optional) Name of the new image on the current lyactive supervisor engine.


Defaults

Rollback timer resets automatically 45 minutes after you issue the issu runversion command.

Command Modes

Modification

12.2(31)SGA

This command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

After you are satisfied with the new image and have confirmed the new supervisor engine is reachable by both the console and the network, enter the issu acceptversion command to halt the rollback timer. If the issu acceptversion command is not entered within 45 minutes from the time the issu runversion command is entered, the entire ISSU process is automatically rolled back to the previous version of the software. The rollback timer starts immediately after you issue the issu runversion command.

If the rollback timer expires before the standby supervisor engine goes to a hot standby state, the timer is automatically extended by up to 15 minutes. If the standby state goes to a hot-standby state within this extension time or the 15 minute extension expires, the switch aborts the ISSU process. A warning message that requires your intervention is displayed every 1 minute of the timer extension.

If the rollback timer is set to a long period of time, such as the default of 45 minutes, and the standby supervisor engine goes into the hot standby state in 7 minutes, you have 38 minutes (45 minus 7) to roll back if necessary.

Use the issu set rollback-timer to configure the rollback timer.

Examples

This example shows how to halt the rollback timer and allow the ISSU process to continue:

Switch# issu acceptversion 2 
Switch#

12.2(31)SGA

This command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

The issu commitversion command checks that the standby supervisor engine has the new Cisco IOS software image in its file system and that both supervisor engines are in the run version (RV) state. If these conditions are met, the following actions take place:

The standby supervisor engine is reset and booted with the new version of Cisco IOS software.

The standby supervisor engine moves into the Stateful Switchover (SSO) mode and is fully stateful for all clients and applications with which the standby supervisor engine is compatible.

The supervisor engines are moved into final state, which is the same as initial state.

Entering the issu commitversion command completes the In Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) process. This process cannot be stopped or reverted to its original state without starting a new ISSU process.

Entering the issu commitversion command without entering the issu acceptversion command is equivalent to entering both the issu acceptversion and the issu commitversion commands. Use the
issu commitversion command if you do not intend to run in the current state for an extended period of time and are satisfied with the new software version.

Examples

This example shows how you can configure the standby supervisor engine to be reset and reloaded with the new Cisco IOS software version:

Switch# issu commitversion 1
Switch#

issu config-sync mismatched-commands

If the IOS version differs on your active and standby supervisors, some CLIs will not be compatible between them. If such commands are already present in the running configuration of the active supervisor engine and the syntax-check for the command fails at the standby supervisor engine while it is booting, the issu config-sync mismatched-commands command moves the active supervisor engine into the Mismatched Command List (MCL) and resets the standby supervisor engine.

issu config-sync {ignore | validate} mismatched-commands

Syntax Description

ignore

Ignore the mismatched command list.

validate

Revalidate the mismatched command list with the modified running-configuration.


Defaults

This command has no default settings.

Command Modes

Modification

12.2(31)SGA

This command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

The following is an example log entry for Mismatched Commands:

00:06:31: Config Sync: Bulk-sync failure due to Servicing Incompatibility. Please check 
full list of mismatched commands via:
  show issu config-sync failures mcl
00:06:31: Config Sync: Starting lines from MCL file:
interface GigabitEthernet7/7
 ! <submode> "interface"
- ip address 11.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
 ! </submode> "interface"

To display all Mismatched Commands, use the show issu config-sync failures mcl command.

To clean the MCL, use the following steps:


Step 1 Remove all mismatched commands from the active supervisor engines running-configuration.

Step 2 Revalidate the MCL with a modified running-configuration using the
issu config-sync validate mismatched-commands command.

Step 3 Reload the standby supervisor engine.


You could also ignore the MCL by doing the following:


Step 1 Issue the issu config-sync ignore mismatched-commands command.

Step 2 Reload the standby supervisor engine; the system changes to SSO mode.


Note If you ignore the mismatched commands, the out-of-sync configuration at the active supervisor engine and the standby supervisor engine still exists.


Step 3 You can verify the ignored MCL with the show issu config-sync ignored mcl command.

12.2(18)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

The l2protocol-tunnel drop-threshold command controls the number of protocol packets per second that are received on an interface before it drops packets. When no protocol option is specified with a keyword, the threshold is applied to each of the tunneled Layer 2 protocol types. If you also set a shutdown threshold on the interface, the drop-threshold value must be less than or equal to the shutdown-threshold value.

When the drop threshold is reached, the interface drops the Layer 2 protocol packets until the rate at which they are received is below the drop threshold.

Examples

This example shows how to configure the drop threshold rate:

Switch(config-if)# l2protocol-tunnel drop-threshold cdp 50
Switch(config-if)#

Related Commands

Modification

12.2(18)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

The l2-protocol-tunnel shutdown-threshold command controls the number of protocol packets per second that are received on an interface before it shuts down. When no protocol option is specified with the keyword, the threshold is applied to each of the tunneled Layer 2 protocol types. If you also set a drop threshold on the interface, the shutdown-threshold value must be greater than or equal to the drop-threshold value.

When the shutdown threshold is reached, the interface is error disabled. If you enable error recovery by entering the errdisable recovery cause l2ptguard command, the interface is brought out of the error-disabled state and allowed to retry the operation again when all the causes have timed out. If the error recovery feature generation is not enabled for l2ptguard, the interface stays in the error-disabled state until you enter the shutdown and no shutdown commands.

Examples

This example shows how to configure the maximum rate:

Switch(config-if)# l2protocol-tunnel shutdown-threshold cdp 50

This example shows how to enable logging event state-change events on interface gi11/1:

Switch# config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# interface gi11/1
Switch(config-if)# logging event trunk-status
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch#

This example shows how to turn off logging event trunk status regardless of the global setting:

Switch# config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# interface gi11/1
Switch(config-if)# no logging event trunk-status
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch#

This example shows how to enable the global event trunk-status setting on interface gi11/1:

Switch# config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# interface gi11/1
Switch(config-if)# logging event trunk-status use-global
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch#

Modification

12.1(12c)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

When you enter the ACL name, follow these naming conventions:

Maximum of 31 characters long and can include a-z, A-Z, 0-9, the dash character (-), the underscore character (_), and the period character (.)

Must start with an alpha character and must be unique across all ACLs of all types

Case sensitive

Cannot be a number

Must not be a keyword; keywords to avoid are all, default-action, map, help, and editbuffer

When you enter the mac access-list extended name command, you use the [no] {permit | deny} {{src-mac mask | any} [dest-mac mask]} [protocol-family {appletalk | arp-non-ipv4 | decnet | ipx | ipv6 | rarp-ipv4 | rarp-non-ipv4 | vines | xns}] subset to create or delete entries in a MAC layer access list.

Table 2-7 describes the syntax of the mac access-list extended subcommands.

Table 2-7 mac access-list extended Subcommands 

Subcommand
Description

deny

Prevents access if the conditions are matched.

no

(Optional) Deletes a statement from an access list.

permit

Allows access if the conditions are matched.

src-mac mask

Source MAC address in the form: source-mac-address source-mac-address-mask.

any

Specifies any protocol type.

dest-mac mask

(Optional) Destination MAC address in the form: dest-mac-address dest-mac-address-mask.

protocol-family

(Optional) Name of the protocol family. Table 2-8 lists which packets are mapped to a particular protocol family.


Table 2-8 describes mapping an Ethernet packet to a protocol family.

Table 2-8 Mapping an Ethernet Packet to a Protocol Family

Vines

0x0BAD, 0x0BAE, 0x0BAF

Xns

0x0600, 0x0807


When you enter the src-mac mask or dest-mac mask value, follow these guidelines:

Enter the MAC addresses as three 4-byte values in dotted hexadecimal format such as 0030.9629.9f84.

Enter the MAC address masks as three 4-byte values in dotted hexadecimal format. Use 1 bit as a wildcard. For example, to match an address exactly, use 0000.0000.0000 (can be entered as 0.0.0).

For the optional protocol parameter, you can enter either the EtherType or the keyword.

Entries without a protocol parameter match any protocol.

The access list entries are scanned in the order that you enter them. The first matching entry is used. To improve performance, place the most commonly used entries near the beginning of the access list.

An implicit deny any any entry exists at the end of an access list unless you include an explicit permit any any entry at the end of the list.

All new entries to an existing list are placed at the end of the list. You cannot add entries to the middle of a list.

Examples

This example shows how to create a MAC layer access list named mac_layer that denies traffic from 0000.4700.0001, which is going to 0000.4700.0009, and permits all other traffic:

Switch(config)# mac access-list extended mac_layer 
Switch(config-ext-macl)# deny 0000.4700.0001 0.0.0 0000.4700.0009 0.0.0 protocol-family appletalk
Switch(config-ext-macl)# permit any any 
Switch(config-ext-macl)# end

mac-address-table dynamic group protocols

To enable the learning of MAC addresses in both the "ip" and "other" protocol buckets, even though the incoming packet may belong to only one of the protocol buckets, use the
mac-address-table dynamic group protocols command. To disable grouped learning, use the no form of this command.

mac-address-table dynamic group protocols {ip | other} {ip | other}

[no] mac-address-table dynamic group protocols {ip | other} {ip | other}

Syntax Description

ip

Specifies the "ip" protocol bucket.

other

Specifies the "other" protocol bucket.


Defaults

The group learning feature is disabled.

Command Modes

Global configuration mode

Command History

Release
Modification

12.2(18)EW

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

The entries within the "ip" and "other" protocol buckets are created according to the protocol of the incoming traffic.

When you use the mac-address-table dynamic group protocols command, an incoming MAC address that might belong to either the "ip" or the "other" protocol bucket, is learned on both protocol buckets. Therefore, any traffic destined to this MAC address and belonging to any of the protocol buckets is unicasted to that MAC address, rather than flooded. This reduces the unicast Layer 2 flooding that might be caused if the incoming traffic from a host belongs to a different protocol bucket than the traffic that is destined to the sending host.

Examples

This example shows that the MAC addresses are initially assigned to either the "ip" or the "other" protocol bucket:

12.2(31)SG

Support for this command was introduced on the Catalyst 4500 series switch.


Usage Guidelines

We can enable the MAC change notification feature by using the
mac address-table notification change command. We must also enable MAC notification traps on an interface by using the snmp trap mac-notification change interface configuration command and configure the switch to send MAC change traps to the NMS by using the snmp-server enable traps mac-notification global configuration command.

When the history-size option is configured, the existing MAC change history table is deleted, and a new table is created.

Examples

This example shows how to set the MAC address notification history table size to 300 entries:

Switch(config)# mac-address-table notification change history-size 300
Switch(config)#

This example shows how to set the MAC address notification interval time to 1250 seconds:

Switch(config)# mac-address-table notification change interval 1250

If you do not enter a protocol type, an entry is automatically created for each of the four protocol types.

Entering the no form of this command does not remove the system MAC addresses.

When removing a MAC address, entering interface int is optional. For unicast entries, the entry is removed automatically. For multicast entries, if you do not specify an interface, the entire entry is removed. You can specify the selected ports to be removed by specifying the interface.

Examples

This example shows how to add the static entries to the MAC address table:

Switch(config)# mac-address-table static 0050.3e8d.6400 vlan 100 interface fastethernet5/7 
Switch(config)#
