Default

This command has no default setting.

Command Type

Switch command.

Command Mode

Privileged.

Usage Guidelines

This command is not supported by the Catalyst 4000 and 2948G series switches.

If you enter any of the clear mls commands on a Catalyst 5000, 2926G, or 2926 series switch without MLS, this warning message is displayed:

MLS not supported on feature card.

When you remove an RSM from the Catalyst 5000, 2926G, or 2926 series switch, it is removed immediately from the inclusion list and all the NFLS entries for the RSM are removed.

Up to 16 routers can be included explicitly as MLS-RPs.

To use a router as an NFLS, you must meet these conditions:

•The router must be included (either explicitly or automatically) in the MLS-SE.

•The MLS feature must be enabled in the Catalyst 5000, 2926G, and 2926 series switches.

•The Catalyst 5000, 2926G, and 2926 series switches must know the router's MAC-VLAN pairs.

Use the following syntax to specify an IP subnet address:

•ip_subnet_addr—This is the short subnet address format. The trailing decimal number 00 in an IP address YY.YY.YY.00 specifies the boundary for an IP subnet address. For example, 172.22.36.00 indicates a 24-bit subnet address (subnet mask 172.22.36.00/255.255.255.0), and 173.24.00.00 indicates a 16-bit subnet address (subnet mask 173.24.00.00/255.255.0.0). However, this format can identify only a subnet address of 8, 16, or 24 bits.

•ip_addr/subnet_mask—This is the long subnet address format, for example, 172.22.252.00/255.255.252.00 indicates a 22-bit subnet address. This format can specify a subnet address of any bit number. To provide more flexibility, the ip_addr is a full host address, such as 172.22.253.1/255.255.252.00.

•ip_addr/maskbits—This is the simplified long subnet address format. The mask bits specify the number of bits of the network masks. For example, 172.22.252.00/22 indicates a 22-bit subnet address. The ip_addr is a full host address, such as 193.22.253.1/22, which has the same subnet address as the ip_subnet_addr.

If you do not use the all argument in the clear mls entry command, you must specify at least one of the other three keywords (source, destination, or flow) and its arguments.

A 0 value for source_port and destination_port clears all entries. Unspecified options are treated as wildcards, and all entries are cleared.

Examples

This example shows how to disable MLS for the Stargate router (IP address 172.20.15.1):

Console> (enable) clear mls include Stargate

vlans	(Optional) One or more VLANs to remove from the allowed VLAN list for the trunk port; valid values are 2 to 1005.

Default

If you do not specify any VLANs, the mode is set to auto for ISL trunk ports and off for other trunk ports (except ATM LANE trunks, which are always on). For more information about auto and off modes, see the set trunk command.

Command Type

Switch command.

Command Mode

Privileged.

Usage Guidelines

Follow these guidelines for deleting VLANs:

•When you delete an Ethernet VLAN in VTP server mode, the VLAN is removed from all switches in the same VTP domain.

•When you delete a VLAN in VTP transparent mode, the VLAN is deleted only on the current switch.

•To delete a Token Ring TrBRF VLAN, you must first reassign its child TrCRFs to another parent TrBRF, or delete the child TrCRFs.

---

Caution   

When you clear a VLAN, all ports assigned to that VLAN become inactive. However, the VLAN port assignments are retained until you move the ports to another VLAN. If the cleared VLAN is reactivated, all ports still configured on that VLAN are also reactivated. A warning is displayed if you clear a VLAN that exists in the mapping table.

---

Default VLANs cannot be cleared on the trunk.

The Catalyst 2948G is a fixed configuration switch. All ports are located on "module 2;" for this reason, if you enter 1/N for the module/port number, an error message is displayed.

Examples

This example shows how to clear VLANs 200 to 500 from the  trunk port on port 2 of module 1:

Console> (enable) clear trunk 1/2 200-500

clear vlan

Use the clear vlan command to delete an existing VLAN from a management domain.

clear vlan vlan_num

Syntax Description

vlan_num

Number of the VLAN; valid value is 2 to 1000.

Default

This command has no default setting.

Command Type

Switch command.

Command Mode

Privileged.

Usage Guidelines

---

Caution   

When you clear a VLAN, depending on the VTP configuration in the network, it might delete the VLAN from the entire VTP domain, which means every switch in the domain could delete that VLAN.

If the configured switch is a VTP server and all or some of the other switches in the network are VTP clients, the change propagates to all the clients. For example, those clients will remove the VLAN from their configuration. Servers and transparent switches are unaffected; they keep the VLAN even if the VLAN is deleted by another server.

---

When you clear a VLAN, all ports assigned to that VLAN become inactive. However, the VLAN port assignments are retained until you move the ports to another VLAN. If the cleared VLAN is reactivated, all ports still configured on that VLAN are also reactivated.

Example

This example shows how to clear an existing VLAN (VLAN 4) from a management domain:

Console> (enable) clear vlan 4 
This command will de-activate all ports on vlan 4 
in the entire management domain 
Do you want to continue(y/n) [n]? y 
VTP: VLAN 4 deletion successful

Console> (enable)

client-atm-address name

Use the client-atm-address name command to add a LANE address entry to the configuration server's database. The no form of this command removes a client address entry from the table.

client-atm-address atm-address-template name elan-name
no client-atm-address atm-address-template

Syntax Description

atm-address-template	Template that specifies an ATM address explicitly or a specific part of an ATM address and uses wildcard characters for other parts of the ATM address. Wildcard characters can replace any nibble or group of nibbles in the prefix, the ESI, or the selector fields of the ATM address.
name	Keyword to specify the name of the ELAN.
elan-name	Name of the ELAN. The maximum length of elan-name is 32 characters.

Default

By default, no address and no ELAN name are configured.

Command Type

Cisco IOS ATM command.

Command Mode

Database configuration.

Usage Guidelines

This command is not supported by the Catalyst 4000 and 2948G series switches.

This command binds to the specified ELAN any client whose address matches the specified template. When a client comes up, it consults the LANE configuration server, which responds with the ATM address of the LANE server for the ELAN. The client then initiates join procedures with the LANE server.

You must create the ELAN specified by the elan-name argument using the name server-atm-address command before you use the client-atm-address command.

If an existing entry in the configuration server's database binds the LANE client ATM address to a different ELAN, the new command is rejected.

This command affects only the bindings in the named configuration server database. It has no effect on the LANE components themselves.

A LANE ATM address has the same syntax as an NSAP but is not a network-level address:

•A 13-byte prefix that includes the following fields defined by the ATM Forum: AFI field (1 byte), DCC or ICD field (2 bytes), DFI field (1 byte), Administrative Authority field (3 bytes), Reserved field (2 bytes), Routing Domain field (2 bytes), and Area field (2 bytes).

•A 6-byte system identifier (ESI).

•A 1-byte selector field.

LANE ATM address templates can use two types of wildcards: an asterisk (*) to match any single character and an ellipsis (...) to match any number of leading or trailing characters.

In LANE, a prefix template matches the prefix explicitly but uses wildcards for the ESI and selector fields. An ESI template matches the ESI field explicitly but uses wildcards for the prefix and selector.

In our implementation of LANE, the prefix corresponds to the specific subinterface of the interface.

Examples

This example uses an ESI template to specify the part of the ATM address corresponding to an interface. This template allows any client on any subinterface of the interface that corresponds to the displayed ESI value, no matter which switch the router is connected to, to join the engineering ELAN:

ATM(lane-config-database)#client-atm-address ...0800.200c.1001.** name engineering

This example uses a prefix template to specify the part of the ATM address corresponding to the switch. This template allows any client on the subinterface of any interface connected to the switch that corresponds to the displayed prefix to join the marketing ELAN:

ATM(lane-config-database)#client-atm-address 47.000014155551212f.00.00... name 
marketing

configure

Use the configure command to download a configuration file from a host and execute each command in that file.

configure {host} {file}

Syntax Description

host	IP address or IP alias of the host.
file	Name of the file.

Default

This command has no default setting.

Command Type

Switch command.

Command Mode

Privileged.

Usage Guideline

Refer to the Software Configuration Guide for your switch on how to construct a configuration file to download using the configure command.

Examples

Following is a sample file called system5.cfg in the /tftpboot directory:

begin

show time

set ip alias conc7 198.133.219.207

set ip alias montreux 198.133.119.42

set ip alias cres 192.122.174.42

set prompt system5>

set password

# empty string old password

pingpong

pingpong

end

#

Each line contains a command, except lines that begin with ! or #.

This example shows how to download the system5.cfg configuration file from the 192.122.174.42 host:

Console> (enable) configure 192.122.174.42 system5.cfg

Configure using system5.cfg from 192.122.174.42 (y/n) [n]? y

/

Done.  Finished Network Download.  (446 bytes)

confreg

Use the confreg command to configure the configuration register utility.

confreg [num]

Syntax Description

num	(Optional) Valid values are 0 = ROM monitor, 1 = the boot helper image, and 2-15 = boot system.

Default

This command has no defaults.

Command Type

ROM monitor command.

Command Mode

Normal.

Usage Guidelines

Executed with the argument num, confreg changes the VCR to match the number specified.

Without the argument, confreg dumps the contents of the VCR and allows you to alter the contents.

You are prompted to change or keep the information held in each bit of the VCR. In either case, the new VCR value is written into NVRAM and does not take effect until you reset or power cycle the platform.

You must issue a sync command. Otherwise, the change is not saved and a reset removes your change.

Example

This example shows how to use the confreg command:

rommon 7 > confreg
