aaa accounting dot1x
Use the aaa accounting dot1x global configuration command to enable authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) accounting and to create method lists defining specific accounting methods on a per-line or per-interface basis for 802.1x sessions. Use the no form of this command to disable 802.1x accounting.
aaa accounting dot1x {name | default} start-stop {broadcast group {name | radius | tacacs+}
[group {name | radius | tacacs+} ... ] | group {name | radius | tacacs+} [group {name | radius
| tacacs+} ... ]}
no aaa accounting dot1x {name | default}
Syntax Description
name
|
Name of a server group. This is optional when you enter it after the broadcast group and group keywords.
|
default
|
Use the accounting methods that follow as the default list for accounting services.
|
start-stop
|
Send a start accounting notice at the beginning of a process and a stop accounting notice at the end of a process. The start accounting record is sent in the background. The requested-user process begins regardless of whether or not the start accounting notice was received by the accounting server.
|
broadcast
|
Enable accounting records to be sent to multiple AAA servers and send accounting records to the first server in each group. If the first server is unavailable, the switch uses the list of backup servers to identify the first server.
|
group
|
Specify the server group to be used for accounting services. These are valid server group names:
• name—Name of a server group.
• radius—List of all RADIUS hosts.
• tacacs+—List of all TACACS+ hosts.
The group keyword is optional when you enter it after the broadcast group and group keywords. You can enter more than optional group keyword.
|
radius
|
(Optional) Enable RADIUS authorization.
|
tacacs+
|
(Optional) Enable TACACS+ accounting.
|
Defaults
AAA accounting is disabled.

Usage Guidelines
This command requires access to a RADIUS server.
Note
We recommend that you enter the dot1x reauthentication interface configuration command before configuring 802.1x RADIUS accounting on an interface.
Examples
This example shows how to configure 802.1x accounting:
Switch(config)# aaa accounting dot1x default start-stop group radius
Note
The RADIUS authentication server must be properly configured to accept and log update or watchdog packets from the AAA client.
Related Commands
aaa authentication dot1x
Use the aaa authentication dot1x global configuration command to specify one or more authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) methods for use on ports running IEEE 802.1x. Use the no form of this command to disable authentication.
aaa authentication dot1x {default} method1 [method2...]
no aaa authentication dot1x {default}
Syntax Description
default
|
Use the listed authentication methods that follow this argument as the default list of methods when a user logs in.
|
method1 [method2...]
|
At least one of the these keywords:
• enable—Use the enable password for authentication.
• group radius—Use the list of all RADIUS servers for authentication.
• line—Use the line password for authentication.
• local—Use the local username database for authentication.
• local-case—Use the case-sensitive local username database for authentication.
• none—Use no authentication. The client is automatically authenticated by the switch without using the information supplied by the client.
|
Note
Though visible in the command-line help strings, the group tacacs+ keyword is not supported.
Defaults
No authentication is performed.

Usage Guidelines
The method argument identifies the list of methods that the authentication algorithm tries in the given sequence to validate the password provided by the client. The only method that is truly 802.1x-compliant is the group radius method, in which the client data is validated against a RADIUS authentication server. The remaining methods enable AAA to authenticate the client by using locally configured data. For example, the local and local-case methods use the username and password that are saved in the configuration file. The enable and line methods use the enable and line passwords for authentication.
If you specify group radius, you must configure the RADIUS server by entering the radius-server host global configuration command.
If you are not using a RADIUS server, you can use the local or local-case methods, which access the local username database to perform authentication. By specifying the enable or line methods, you can supply the clients with a password to provide access to the switch.
Use the show running-config privileged EXEC command to display the configured lists of authentication methods.
Examples
This example shows how to enable AAA and how to create an authentication list for 802.1x. This authentication first tries to contact a RADIUS server. If this action returns an error, the user is allowed access with no authentication.
Switch(config)# aaa new-model
Switch(config)# aaa authentication dot1x default group radius none
You can verify your settings by entering the show running-config privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
You enter access-map configuration mode by using the vlan access-map global configuration command.
If the action is drop, you should define the access map, including configuring any access control list (ACL) names in match clauses, before applying the map to a VLAN, or all packets could be dropped.
In access map configuration mode, use the match access map configuration command to define the match conditions for a VLAN map. Use the action command to set the action that occurs when a packet matches the conditions.
The drop and forward parameters are not used in the no form of the command.
Examples
This example shows how to identify and apply a VLAN access map vmap4 to VLANs 5 and 6 that causes the VLAN to forward an IP packet if the packet matches the conditions defined in access list al2:
Switch(config)# vlan access-map vmap4
Switch(config-access-map)# match ip address al2
Switch(config-access-map)# action forward
Switch(config-access-map)# exit
Switch(config)# vlan filter vmap4 vlan-list 5-6
You can verify your settings by entering the show vlan access-map privileged EXEC command.

|
/reload
|
Reload the system after successfully downloading the image unless the configuration has been changed and not been saved.
|
/safe
|
Keep the current software image; do not delete it to make room for the new software image before the new image is downloaded. The current image is deleted after the download.
|
source-url
|
The source URL alias for a local or network file system. These options are supported:
• The syntax for the local flash file system: flash:
• The syntax for the FTP: ftp:[[//username[:password]@location]/directory]/image-name.tar
• The syntax for the Remote Copy Protocol (RCP): rcp:[[//username@location]/directory]/image-name.tar

12.1(14)AX
|
This command was introduced.
|
Usage Guidelines
Using the /safe or /leave-old-sw option can cause the new image download to fail if there is insufficient flash memory. If leaving the software in place prevents the new image from fitting in flash memory due to space constraints, an error results.
If you used the /leave-old-sw option and did not overwrite the old image when you downloaded the new one, you can remove the old image by using the delete privileged EXEC command. For more information, see the "delete" section.
Use the /overwrite option to overwrite the image on the flash device with the downloaded one.
If you specify the command without the /overwrite option, the download algorithm verifies that the new image is not the same as the one on the switch flash device. If the images are the same, the download does not occur. If the images are different, the old image is deleted, and the new one is downloaded.
After downloading a new image, enter the reload privileged EXEC command to begin using the new image, or specify the /reload or /force-reload option in the archive download-sw command.
Examples
This example shows how to download a new image from a TFTP server at 172.20.129.10 and overwrite the image on the switch:
Switch# archive download-sw /overwrite tftp://172.20.129.10/test-image.tar
This example shows how to download only the software image from a TFTP server at 172.20.129.10 to the switch:
Switch# archive download-sw /imageonly tftp://172.20.129.10/test-image.tar
This example shows how to keep the old software version after a successful download:
Switch# archive download-sw /leave-old-sw tftp://172.20.129.10/test-image.tar

This command was introduced.
|
Usage Guidelines
After entering the arp access-list command, you enter ARP access-list configuration mode, and these configuration commands are available:
•
default: returns a command to its default setting.
•
deny: specifies packets to reject. For more information, see the "deny (ARP access-list configuration)" section.
•
exit: exits ARP access-list configuration mode.
•
no: negates a command or returns to default settings.
•
permit: specifies packets to forward. For more information, see the "permit (ARP access-list configuration)" section.
Use the permit and deny access-list configuration commands to forward and to drop ARP packets based on the specified matching criteria.
When the ARP ACL is defined, you can apply it to a VLAN by using the ip arp inspection filter vlan global configuration command. ARP packets containing only IP-to-MAC address bindings are compared to the ACL. All other types of packets are bridged in the ingress VLAN without validation. If the ACL permits a packet, the switch forwards it. If the ACL denies a packet because of an explicit deny statement, the switch drops the packet. If the ACL denies a packet because of an implicit deny statement, the switch compares the packet to the list of DHCP bindings (unless the ACL is static, which means that packets are not compared to the bindings).
Examples
This example shows how to define an ARP access list and to permit both ARP requests and ARP responses from a host with an IP address of 1.1.1.1 and a MAC address of 0000.0000.abcd:
Switch(config)# arp access-list static-hosts
Switch(config-arp-nacl)# permit ip host 1.1.1.1 mac host 00001.0000.abcd
Switch(config-arp-nacl)# end
You can verify your settings by entering the show arp access-list privileged EXEC command.

12.2(25)EY
|
The cisco-softphone keyword was added, and the generated auto-QoS configuration changed.
|
Usage Guidelines
Use this command to configure the QoS appropriate for VoIP traffic within the QoS domain. The QoS domain includes the switch, the interior of the network, and edge devices that can classify inbound traffic for QoS.
In releases earlier than Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)EY, auto-QoS configures the switch only for VoIP with Cisco IP Phones on switch ports.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)EY or later, auto-QoS configures the switch for VoIP with Cisco IP Phones on switch and routed ports and for VoIP with devices running the Cisco SoftPhone application. These releases support only Cisco IP SoftPhone Version 1.3(3) or later. Connected devices must use Cisco Call Manager Version 4 or later.
To take advantage of the auto-QoS defaults, you should enable auto-QoS before you configure other QoS commands. You can fine-tune the auto-QoS configuration after you enable auto-QoS.
Note
The switch applies the auto-QoS-generated commands as if the commands were entered from the command-line interface (CLI). An existing user configuration can cause the application of the generated commands to fail, or the user configuration might be overridden by the generated commands. These actions occur without warning. If all the generated commands are successfully applied, any user-entered configuration that was not overridden remains in the running configuration. Any user-entered configuration that was overridden can be retrieved by reloading the switch without saving the current configuration to memory. If the generated commands are not applied, the previous running configuration is restored.
If this is the first port on which you have enabled auto-QoS, the auto-QoS-generated global configuration commands are executed, followed by the interface configuration commands. If you enable auto-QoS on another port, only the auto-QoS-generated interface configuration commands for that port are executed.
When you enable the auto-QoS feature on the first port, these automatic actions occur:
•
QoS is globally enabled (mls qos global configuration command), and other global configuration commands are added.
•
When you enter the auto qos voip cisco-phone interface configuration command on a port at the edge of the network that is connected to a Cisco IP phone, the switch enables the trusted boundary feature. The switch uses the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) to detect the presence or absence of a Cisco IP phone. When a Cisco IP phone is detected, the ingress classification on the port is set to trust the QoS label received in the packet. When a Cisco IP phone is absent, the ingress classification is set to not trust the QoS label in the packet. The switch configures ingress queues and the egress queue-set on the port according to the settings in Table 2-2 and Table 2-3.
•
When you enter the auto qos voip cisco-softphone interface configuration command on a port at the edge of the network that is connected to a device running the Cisco SoftPhone, the switch uses policing to decide whether a packet is in or out of profile and to specify the action on the packet. If the packet does not have a DSCP value of 24, 26, or 46 or is out of profile, the switch changes the DSCP value to 0. The switch configures ingress and egress queues on the port according to the settings in Table 2-2 and Table 2-3.
•
When you enter the auto qos voip trust interface configuration command on a port connected to the interior of the network, the switch trusts the CoS value for nonrouted ports or the DSCP value for routed ports in ingress packets (the assumption is that traffic has already been classified by other edge devices). The switch configures the ingress queues and the egress queue-set on the port according to the settings in Table 2-2 and Table 2-3.
You can enable auto-QoS on static, dynamic-access, voice VLAN access, and trunk ports. When enabling auto-QoS with a Cisco IP Phone on a routed port, you must assign a static IP address to the IP phone.
To display the QoS commands that are automatically generated when auto-QoS is enabled or disabled, enable debugging before you enable auto-QoS. Use the debug auto qos privileged EXEC command to enable auto-QoS debugging. For more information, see the debug auto qos command.
Note
When a device running Cisco SoftPhone is connected to a switch or routed port, the switch supports only one Cisco SoftPhone application per port.
After auto-QoS is enabled, do not modify a policy map or aggregate policer that includes AutoQoS in its name. If you need to modify the policy map or aggregate policer, make a copy of it, and change the copied policy map or policer. To use the new policy map instead of the generated one, remove the generated policy map from the interface, and apply the new policy map.
To disable auto-QoS on a port, use the no auto qos voip interface configuration command. Only the auto-QoS-generated interface configuration commands for this port are removed. If this is the last port on which auto-QoS is enabled and you enter the no auto qos voip command, auto-QoS is considered disabled even though the auto-QoS-generated global configuration commands remain (to avoid disrupting traffic on other ports affected by the global configuration). You can use the no mls qos global configuration command to disable the auto-QoS-generated global configuration commands. With QoS disabled, there is no concept of trusted or untrusted ports because the packets are not modified (the CoS, DSCP, and IP precedence values in the packet are not changed). Traffic is switched in pass-through mode (packets are switched without any rewrites and classified as best effort without any policing).
On a port on which the auto qos voip command is enabled, the queue-set ID that is generated depends on the interface:
•
For a Fast Ethernet interface, auto-QoS generates queue-set 1 (which is the default).
•
For a Gigabit Ethernet interface, auto-QoS generates queue-set 2.
Examples
This example shows how to enable auto-QoS on a port and to trust the QoS labels received in inbound packets when the switch or router connected to a port is a trusted device:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# auto qos voip trust
You can verify your settings by entering the show auto qos interface interface-id privileged EXEC command.

12.1(14)AX

This command was introduced.
|
12.2(25)EY
|
Hierarchical service policies can be applied to inbound traffic received on an ES port.
|
Usage Guidelines
Use the bandwidth command only in a hierarchical policy map attached to an ES port. This command is not valid for the class-default class in a physical-level policy map.
Use the bandwidth command when you configure a policy map for a class defined by the class-map global configuration command. The bandwidth command specifies the minimum bandwidth for traffic in that class when there is traffic congestion in the switch. If the switch is not congested, the class receives more bandwidth than you specify with this command. Class-based weighted fair queueing (CBWFQ) derives the weight for packets belonging to the class from the bandwidth allocated to the class. CBWFQ then uses the weight to ensure that the queue for the class is serviced fairly.
Note
It is important to remember that hard bandwidth guarantees might not be provided and that only relative bandwidths are assured. That is, class bandwidths are always proportional to the specified percentages of the port bandwidth. When the link bandwidth is fixed, class bandwidth guarantees are in proportion to the configured percentages.
These restrictions apply to the bandwidth command:
•
If the percent keyword is used, the sum of the class bandwidth percentages within a single policy map cannot exceed 99 percent. Percentage calculations are based on the bandwidth available at the parent class (or the port if it is the parent).
•
The amount of bandwidth available to a class is dependent on the amount of bandwidth reserved by the parent class.
•
The amount of bandwidth configured should be large enough to accommodate Layer 2 overhead.
•
A policy map can have all the class bandwidths specified in either kbps or in percentages, but not a mix of both. You cannot specify bandwidth in kbps in a child policy (configured through the service-policy policy-map class configuration command) and then specify bandwidth as a percentage in the parent policy.
•
You cannot use the bandwidth command for the class-default class map in a physical-level policy map.
•
Though visible in the command-line interface, the max-reserved-bandwidth interface configuration command and the bandwidth interface configuration command are not supported on the ES ports.
When you configure the bandwidth command in a class policy, you must also configure the bandwidth or shape policy-map class configuration command in the parent VLAN-level policy.
You must configure the bandwidth or the shape policy-map class configuration command before you configure either the queue-limit or the random-detect policy-map class configuration command in a class policy.
You cannot use the bandwidth, queue-limit, random-detect, and the shape policy-map class configuration commands with the priority policy-map class configuration command in the same class within the same policy map. However, you can use these commands in the same policy map.
When you use the service-policy interface configuration command to attach the policy map containing class configurations to an ES port, the switch determines the available bandwidth.
Examples
This example shows how to set the minimum bandwidth to 2000 kbps for a class called silver-class. The class already exists in the switch configuration.
Switch(config)# policy-map polmap6
Switch(config-pmap)# class silver-class
Switch(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth 2000
This example shows how to guarantee 30 percent of the bandwidth for class1 and 25 percent of the bandwidth for class2 when CBWFQ is configured. A policy map with two classes is created and is then attached to an ES port.
Switch(config)# policy-map policy1
Switch(config-pmap)# class class1
Switch(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 50
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# class class2
Switch(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 25
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/1/1
Switch(config-if)# service-policy input policy1
This example shows how bandwidth is guaranteed if low-latency queueing (LLQ) and CBWFQ are configured. In this example, LLQ is enabled in a class called voice1.
Switch(config)# policy-map policy1
Switch(config-pmap)# class class1
Switch(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 50
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# class class2
Switch(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 25
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# class voice1
Switch(config-pmap-c)# priority
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/1/1
Switch(config-if)# service-policy output policy1
You can verify your settings by entering the show policy-map privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
For Layer 2 EtherChannels, you do not have to create a port-channel first by using the interface port-channel global configuration command before assigning a physical port to a channel group. Instead, you can use the channel-group interface configuration command. It automatically creates the port-channel when the channel group gets its first physical port if the logical interface is not already created. If you create the port-channel first, the channel-group-number can be the same as the port-channel-number, or you can use a new number. If you use a new number, the channel-group command dynamically creates a new port channel.
You do not have to disable the IP address that is assigned to a physical port that is part of a channel group, but we strongly recommend that you do so.
You create Layer 3 port channels by using the interface port-channel command followed by the no switchport interface configuration command. You should manually configure the port-channel logical interface before putting the interface into the channel group.
After you configure an EtherChannel, configuration changes that you make on the port-channel apply to all the physical ports assigned to the port-channel. Configuration changes applied to the physical port affect only the port where you apply the configuration. To change the parameters of all ports in an EtherChannel, apply configuration commands to the port-channel, for example, spanning-tree commands or commands to configure a Layer 2 EtherChannel as a trunk.
If you do not specify non-silent with the auto or desirable mode, silent is assumed. The silent mode is used when the switch is connected to a device that is not PAgP-capable and seldom, if ever, sends packets. A example of a silent partner is a file server or a packet analyzer that is not generating traffic. In this case, running PAgP on a physical port prevents that port from ever becoming operational. However, it allows PAgP to operate, to attach the port to a channel group, and to use the port for transmission. Both ends of the link cannot be set to silent.
With the on mode, a usable EtherChannel exists only when a port group in the on mode is connected to another port group in the on mode.
Caution 
You should use care when using the
on mode. This is a manual configuration, and ports on both ends of the EtherChannel must have the same configuration. If the group is misconfigured, packet loss or spanning-tree loops can occur.
Note
Enhanced-services (ES) port cannot be bundled with non ES ports.
Do not configure an EtherChannel in both the PAgP and LACP modes. EtherChannel groups running PAgP and LACP can coexist on the same switch. Individual EtherChannel groups can run either PAgP or LACP, but they cannot interoperate.
If you set the protocol by using the channel-protocol interface configuration command, the setting is not overridden by the channel-group interface configuration command
Do not configure a port that is an active member of an EtherChannel as an 802.1x port. If 802.1x is enabled on a not-yet active port of an EtherChannel, the port does not join the EtherChannel.
Note
If 802.1x is enabled on a not-yet active port of an EtherChannel in software releases earlier than Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)EY, the port does not join the EtherChannel.
Do not configure a secure port as part of an EtherChannel or an EtherChannel port as a secure port.
For a complete list of configuration guidelines, see the "Configuring EtherChannels" chapter in the software guide for this release.
Caution 
Do not enable Layer 3 addresses on the physical EtherChannel ports. Do not assign bridge groups on the physical EtherChannel ports because it creates loops.
Examples
This example shows how to configure EtherChannel. It assigns ports as static-access ports in VLAN 10 to channel 5 with the PAgP mode desirable.
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface range fastethernet1/0/4 -5
Switch(config-if-range)# switchport mode access
Switch(config-if-range)# switchport access vlan 10
Switch(config-if-range)# channel-group 5 mode desirable
Switch(config-if-range)# end
This example shows how to configure EtherChannel. It assigns ports as static-access ports in VLAN 10 to channel 5 with the LACP mode active.

|
Usage Guidelines
Before using the class command, you must create a class map for matching packets to the class by using the class-map global configuration command. You also must use the policy-map global configuration command to identify the policy map and to enter policy-map configuration mode. After specifying a policy map, you can configure a traffic policy for new classes or modify a traffic policy for any existing classes in that policy map. The class name that you specify with the class command in the policy map ties the characteristics for that class—that is, its policy—to the class map and its match criteria, as configured through the class-map global configuration command. You attach the policy map to a port by using the service-policy interface configuration command.
After you enter the class command, the switch enters policy-map class configuration mode, and these configuration commands are available:
•
bandwidth: specifies or modifies the minimum bandwidth provided to a class belonging to a policy map. For more information, see the bandwidth command. This command is effective only in a hierarchical policy map attached to an enhanced-services (ES) port.
•
exit: exits policy-map class configuration mode and returns to policy-map configuration mode.
•
no: returns a command to its default setting.
•
police: configures a single-rate policer, an aggregate policer, or a two-rate traffic policer that uses the committed information rate (CIR) and the peak information rate (PIR) for a class of traffic. The policer specifies the bandwidth limitations and the action to take when the limits are exceeded. For more information, see the police and police aggregate commands. For more information about the two-rate policer, see the police cir and the police cir percent command. The two-rate traffic policer commands are effective only in a hierarchical policy map attached to an ES port.
•
priority: enables the priority queue (low-latency queueing [LLQ]) for a class of traffic. For more information, see the priority command. This command is effective only in a hierarchical policy map attached to an ES port.
•
queue-limit: configures the maximum packet threshold for tail drop for a class configured in a policy map attached to an ES port. For more information, see the queue-limit command. This command is effective only in a hierarchical policy map attached to an ES port.
•
random-detect: configures Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED) as a drop policy. For more information, see the random-detect command. This command is effective only in a hierarchical policy map attached to an ES port.
•
service-policy: creates a service policy as a quality of service (QoS) policy within a policy map (called a hierarchical service policy). For more information, see the service-policy (policy-map class) command. This command is effective only in a hierarchical policy map attached to an ES port.
•
set: classifies IP traffic by setting a class of service (CoS), a Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), an IP-precedence, or the multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) experimental (EXP) bits in the packet. For more information, see the set command. Some keywords are effective only in a hierarchical policy map attached to an ES port.
•
shape: sets the token bucket committed information rate (CIR) in a policy map. For more information, see the shape command. This command is effective only in a hierarchical policy map attached to an ES port.
•
trust: defines a trust state for a traffic class. For more information, see the trust command.
The switch supports up to eight classes, including the default class, in a policy map. Packets that fail to meet any of the matching criteria are classified as members of the default traffic class. You configure the default traffic class by specifying class-default as the class name in the class policy-map class configuration command. You can manipulate the default traffic class (for example, set policies to police or to shape it) just like any other traffic class, but you cannot delete it.
Within a policy map, the class-default applies to all traffic that is not explicitly matched within the policy map but that does match the parent policy. If no parent policy is configured, the parent policy represents the physical port. In the physical-level policy map, class-default is the only class that can be configured.
In a hierarchical policy map attached to an ES port, you define a class policy to use either tail drop or WRED packet drop by using either the queue-limit policy-map class configuration command or the random-detect policy-map class configuration command, respectively. You cannot use the queue-limit and random-detect commands in the same class policy, but they can be used in two class policies in the same policy map.
In a hierarchical policy map attached to an ES port, you must configure the bandwidth or the shape policy-map class configuration command before you configure either the queue-limit or the random-detect policy-map class configuration command in a class policy.
When you configure a policy for a class, specify its bandwidth, and attach the policy map to an ES port, class-based weighted fair queueing (CBWFQ) determines if the bandwidth requirement of the class can be satisfied. If so, CBWFQ creates the necessary internal data structures to maintain the state for the class and allocates a queue for it. If CBWFQ decides that the bandwidth requirement for the class cannot be satisfied, an error message appears, and the policy is not attached. When a class is removed, available bandwidth for the port is incremented by the amount previously allocated to the class.
To return to policy-map configuration mode, use the exit command. To return to privileged EXEC mode, use the end command.
You can configure a default class by using the class class-default policy-map configuration command. Unclassified traffic (traffic that does not meet the match criteria specified in the traffic classes) is treated as default traffic.
Examples
This example shows how to create a policy map called policy1. When attached to an ingress port, the policy matches all the inbound traffic defined in class1, sets the IP DSCP to 10, and polices the traffic at an average rate of 1 Mbps and bursts of 20 KB. Traffic exceeding the profile is marked down to a Traffic exceeding the profile is marked down to a DSCP value obtained from the policed-DSCP map and then sent.
Switch(config)# class-map class1
Switch(config-cmap)# exit
Switch(config)# policy-map policy1
Switch(config-pmap)# class class1
Switch(config-pmap-c)# set ip dscp 10
Switch(config-pmap-c)# police 1000000 20000 exceed-action policed-dscp-transmit
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# exit
Switch(config)# interface fastethernet1/0/4
Switch(config-if)# service-policy input policy1
This example configures two class policies included in the egress policy map called policy1. Class1 specifies a policy for 802.1Q tunneling traffic that matches packets based on the outer VLAN ID (VLAN 2) and the inner VLAN IDs (3 to 8).
Switch(config)# class-map match-all class1
Switch(config-cmap)# match vlan 2
Switch(config-cmap)# match vlan inner 3 - 8
Switch(config-cmap)# exit
Switch(config)# policy-map policy1
Switch(config-pmap)# class class1
Switch(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth 2000
Switch(config-pmap-c)# queue-limit 40
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# exit
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/1/1
Switch(config-if)# service-policy output policy1
For class1, a minimum of 2000 kbps of bandwidth is expected to be delivered to this class in the event of congestion. The queue reserved for this class can contain 40 packets before tail drop occurs.
This example shows how to shape the default class. This configuration associates a class-level policy map with a VLAN-level policy map and then associates the VLAN-level policy map with a physical-level policy map.
Switch(config)# class-map my-class
Switch(config-cmap)# match ip precedence 1
Switch(config-cmap)# exit
Switch(config)# class-map my-logical-class
Switch(config-cmap)# match vlan 5
Switch(config-cmap)# exit
Switch(config)# policy-map my-class-policy
Switch(config-pmap)# class my-class
Switch(config-pmap-c)# set ip precedence 2
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# exit
Switch(config)# policy-map my-logical-policy
Switch(config-pmap)# class my-logical-class
Switch(config-pmap-c)# shape average 400000000
Switch(config-pmap-c)# service-policy my-class-policy
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# exit
Switch(config)# policy-map my-physical-policy
Switch(config-pmap)# class class-default
Switch(config-pmap-c)# shape average 500000000
Switch(config-pmap-c)# service-policy my-logical-policy
This example shows how to create a hierarchical class-level policy map with two traffic classes. One of the classes has a class-level classification and a two-rate policer, and the other is the default traffic class. Packets that fail to meet the matching criteria are classified as members of the default traffic class, and the IP precedence in this traffic is reset to 0.
Switch(config)# class-map match-all classprece1
Switch(config-cmap)# match ip precedence 1
Switch(config-cmap)# exit
Switch-config)# policy-map precedencepolice
Switch(config-pmap)# class classprece1
Switch(config-pmap-c)# police cir 100000000 pir 200000000 conform-action set-prec-transmit
2 exceed-action set-prec-transmit 3 violate-action set-prec-transmit 4
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# class class-default
Switch(config-pmap-c)# set ip precedence 0
In the previous hierarchical QoS example, the first traffic class has only one match statement. However, hierarchical policy maps can support multiple match statements.
This example shows how to configure a default traffic class to a policy map:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# class-map cm-3
Switch(config-cmap)# match ip dscp 30
Switch(config-cmap)# match protocol ipv6
Switch(config-cmap)# exit
Switch(config)# class-map cm-4
Switch(config-cmap)# match ip dscp 40
Switch(config-cmap)# match protocol ip
Switch(config-cmap)# exit
Switch(config)# policy-map pm3
Switch(config-pmap)# class class-default
Switch(config-pmap-c)# set dscp 10
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# class cm-3
Switch(config-pmap-c) set dscp 4
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# class cm-4
Switch(config-pmap-c)# trust cos
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# exit
You can verify your settings by entering the show policy-map privileged EXEC command.
This example shows how the default traffic class is automatically placed at the end of policy-map pm3 even though class-default was configured first:
Switch# show policy-map pm3

|
Usage Guidelines
Use this command to specify the name of the class for which you want to create or modify class-map match criteria and to enter class-map configuration mode. Packets are checked against the match criteria configured for a class map to decide if the packet belongs to that class. If a packet matches the specified criteria, the packet is considered a member of the class and is forwarded according to the quality of service (QoS) specifications set in the traffic policy.
You can create up to 4093 class maps.
After you enter the class-map command, the switch enters class-map configuration mode, and these configuration commands are available:
•
description: describes the class map (up to 200 characters). The show class-map privileged EXEC command displays the description and the name of the class map.
•
exit: exits from QoS class-map configuration mode.
•
match: configures classification criteria. For more information, see the match (class-map configuration) command.
•
no: removes a match statement from a class map.
•
rename: renames the current class map. If you rename a class map with a name that is already used, the message A class-map with this name already exists appears.
Only one access control list (ACL) can be configured in a class map. The ACL can have multiple access control entries (ACEs). Class maps that contain ACLs are not supported in an egress policy attached to an enhanced-services (ES) port or in a hierarchical ingress policy attached to an ES port.
Examples
This example shows how to configure the class map called class1 with one match criterion, which is an access list called 103:
Switch(config)# access-list 103 permit ip any any dscp 10
Switch(config)# class-map class1
Switch(config-cmap)# match access-group 103
Switch(config-cmap)# exit
This example shows how to delete the class1 class map:
Switch(config)# no class-map class1
You can verify your settings by entering the show class-map privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
A switch running the rapid per-VLAN spanning-tree plus (rapid-PVST+) protocol or the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) supports a built-in protocol migration mechanism that enables it to interoperate with legacy 802.1D switches. If a rapid-PVST+ switch or an MSTP switch receives a legacy 802.1D configuration bridge protocol data unit (BPDU) with the protocol version set to 0, it sends only 802.1D BPDUs on that interface. A multiple spanning-tree (MST) switch can also detect that an interface is at the boundary of a region when it receives a legacy BPDU, an MST BPDU (version 3) associated with a different region, or a rapid spanning-tree (RST) BPDU (version 2).
However, the switch does not automatically revert to the rapid-PVST+ or the MSTP mode if it no longer receives 802.1D BPDUs. It cannot detect whether the legacy switch has been removed from the link unless the legacy switch is the designated switch. Use the clear spanning-tree detected-protocols command in this situation.

Switch# clear spanning-tree detected-protocols interface gigabitethernet1/0/1

Use the cpu traffic qos cos command in global configuration mode to mark the class of service (CoS) value of CPU traffic. To return to the default value, use the no form of this command.
cpu traffic qos cos {cos-value | trust}
no cpu traffic qos cos {cos-value | trust}
Syntax Description
cos-value
|
Specify a CoS value. The range is from 0 to 7. If no CoS value is configured, the protocol specific value for each packet applies.
|
trust
|
Configure the switch to trust the CoS value of the incoming packet.
|
Command Default
Control plane (CPU) traffic is not marked for QoS.

Usage Guidelines
This feature must be configured globally for a switch; it cannot be configured per-port or per-protocol.
Enter each cpu traffic qos marking action on a separate line.
The trust keyword configures the switch to trust the incoming CoS, DSCP, or precedence value and mark the packet according to the global map configuration.
When you configure the switch to trust CoS, the configuration applies to both IP and non-IP traffic.
When you configure the switch to trust or change DSCP or precedence, but not CoS, the configuration applies only to IP traffic.
When you configure the switch to trust CoS and trust or change DSCP or precedence, then trust CoS applies to non-IP traffic and trust or change DSCP or precedence applies to IP traffic.
The cpu traffic qos cos global configuration command configures CoS marking for CPU-generated traffic by either trusting CoS or specifying a CoS value, but not both. A new configuration overwrites the existing configuration.
Examples
This example shows how to specify a CoS value for CPU-generated IP traffic (including IP-SLA and TWAMP):
Switch(config)# cpu traffic qos cos 2
This example shows how to configure the switch to trust the CoS value of the incoming packet:
Switch(config)# cpu traffic qos cos trust

|
Usage Guidelines
The macro name is a 32-character maximum character string.
A macro can contain up to five ranges.
All interfaces in a range must be the same type; that is, all Fast Ethernet ports, all Gigabit Ethernet ports, all EtherChannel ports, or all VLANs, but you can combine multiple interface types in a macro.
When entering the interface-range, use this format:
•
type {first-interface} - {last-interface}
•
You must add a space between the first interface number and the hyphen when entering an interface-range. For example, fastethernet1/0/1 -5 is a valid range; fastethernet1/0/1-5 is not a valid range.
Valid values for type and interface:
•
vlan vlan-id, where vlan-id is from 1 to 4094
VLAN interfaces must have been configured with the interface vlan command. The show running-config privileged EXEC command displays the configured VLAN interfaces. VLAN interfaces not displayed by the show running-config command cannot be used in interface-ranges.
•
port-channel port-channel-number, where port-channel-number is from 1 to 12
•
fastethernet switch number (always 1)/module/{first port} - {last port}
•
gigabitethernet switch number (always 1)/module/{first port} - {last port}
For physical interfaces:
•
switch number is always 1.
•
module number is 0 for 10/100 ports and standard SFP module slots; 1 for enhanced-services (ES) ports.
•
the range is type 1/module-number/number - number (for example, gigabitethernet 1/0/1 - 2)
When you define a range, you must enter a space before the hyphen (-), for example:
gigabitethernet1/0/1 - 2
You can also enter multiple ranges. When you define multiple ranges, you must enter a space after the first entry before the comma (,). The space after the comma is optional, for example:
fastethernet1/0/3 , gigabitethernet1/0/1 - 2
fastethernet1/0/3 -4, gigabitethernet1/0/1 - 2
Examples
This example shows how to create a multiple-interface macro:
Switch(config)# define interface-range macro1 fastethernet1/0/1 -2, fastethernet1/0/5

Usage Guidelines
If you use the /force keyword, you are prompted once at the beginning of the deletion process to confirm the deletion.
If you use the /recursive keyword without the /force keyword, you are prompted to confirm the deletion of every file.
The prompting behavior depends on the setting of the file prompt global configuration command. By default, the switch prompts for confirmation on destructive file operations. For more information about this command, see the Cisco IOS Command Reference for Release 12.2.
Examples
This example shows how to remove the directory that contains the old software image after a successful download of a new image:
Switch# delete /force /recursive flash:/old-image
You can verify that the directory was removed by entering the dir filesystem: privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
The deny (IPv6 access-list configuration mode) command is similar to the deny (IPv4 access-list configuration mode) command, but it is IPv6-specific.
Use the deny (IPv6) command after the ipv6 access-list command to enter IPv6 access list configuration mode and to define the conditions under which a packet passes the access list.
Specifying IPv6 for the protocol argument matches the IPv6 header of the packet.
By default, the first statement in an access list is number 10, and the subsequent statements are numbered in increments of 10.
You can add permit, deny, or remark statements to an existing access list without re-entering the entire list. To add a new statement somewhere other than at the end of the list, create a new statement with an appropriate entry number between two existing entry numbers to show where it belongs.

Note
Every IPv6 ACL has implicit permit icmp any any nd-na, permit icmp any any nd-ns, and deny ipv6 any any statements as its last match conditions. The two permit conditions allow ICMPv6 neighbor discovery. To disallow ICMPv6 neighbor discovery and to deny icmp any any nd-na or icmp any any nd-ns, there must be an explicit deny entry in the ACL. For the three implicit statements to take effect, an IPv6 ACL must contain at least one entry.
The IPv6 neighbor discovery process uses the IPv6 network layer service. Therefore, by default, IPv6 ACLs implicitly allow IPv6 neighbor discovery packets to be sent and received on an interface. In IPv4, the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), which is equivalent to the IPv6 neighbor discovery process, uses a separate data-link layer protocol. Therefore, by default, IPv4 ACLs implicitly allow ARP packets to be sent and received on an interface.
Both the source-ipv6-prefix/prefix-length and destination-ipv6-prefix/prefix-length arguments are used for traffic filtering. (The source prefix filters traffic based upon its source; the destination prefix filters traffic based upon its destination.)
The switch supports IPv6 address matching for a full range of prefix lengths.
The fragments keyword is an option only if the protocol is ipv6 and the operator [port-number] arguments are not specified.

Examples
This example configures the IPv6 access list named CISCO and applies the access list to outbound traffic on a Layer 3 interface. The first deny entry prevents all packets that have a destination TCP port number greater than 5000 from leaving the interface. The second deny entry prevents all packets that have a source UDP port number less than 5000 from leaving the interface. The second deny also logs all matches to the console. The first permit entry permits all ICMP packets to leave the interface. The second permit entry permits all other traffic to leave the interface. The second permit entry is necessary because an implicit deny-all condition is at the end of each IPv6 access list.

Usage Guidelines
You enter MAC-access list configuration mode by using the mac access-list extended global configuration command.
If you use the host keyword, you cannot enter an address mask; if you do not use the host keyword, you must enter an address mask.
When an access control entry (ACE) is added to an access control list, an implied deny-any-any condition exists at the end of the list. That is, if there are no matches, the packets are denied. However, before the first ACE is added, the list permits all packets.
Note
For more information about named MAC extended access lists, see the software configuration guide for this release.
Examples
This example shows how to define the named MAC extended access list to deny NETBIOS traffic from any source to MAC address 00c0.00a0.03fa. Traffic matching this list is denied.
Switch(config-ext-macl)# deny any host 00c0.00a0.03fa netbios.
This example shows how to remove the deny condition from the named MAC extended access list:
Switch(config-ext-macl)# no deny any 00c0.00a0.03fa 0000.0000.0000 netbios.
This example denies all packets with Ethertype 0x4321:
Switch(config-ext-macl)# deny any any 0x4321 0
You can verify your settings by entering the show access-lists privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
You can configure a restricted VLAN on ports configured as follows:
•
single-host (default) mode
•
auto mode for authorization
You should enable re-authentication. The ports in restricted VLANs do not receive re-authentication requests if it is disabled. To start the re-authentication process, the restricted VLAN must receive a link-down event or an Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) logoff event from the port. If a host is connected through a hub, the port might never receive a link-down event when that host is disconnected, and, as a result, might not detect any new hosts until the next re-authentication attempt occurs.
If the supplicant fails authentication, the port is moved to a restricted VLAN, and an EAP success message is sent to the supplicant. Because the supplicant is not notified of the actual authentication failure, there might be confusion about this restricted network access. An EAP success message is sent for these reasons:
•
If the EAP success message is not sent, the supplicant tries to authenticate every 60 seconds (the default) by sending an EAP-start message.
•
Some hosts (for example, devices running Windows XP) cannot implement DHCP until they receive an EAP success message.
A supplicant might cache an incorrect username and password combination after receiving an EAP success message from the authenticator and re-use that information in every re-authentication. Until the supplicant sends the correct username and password combination, the port remains in the restricted VLAN.
Internal VLANs used for Layer 3 ports cannot be configured as restricted VLANs.
You cannot configure a VLAN to be both a restricted VLAN and a voice VLAN. If you do this, a syslog message is generated.
When a restricted VLAN port is moved to an unauthorized state, the authentication process restarts. If the supplicant fails the authentication process again, the authenticator waits in the held state. After the supplicant has correctly re-authenticated, all IEEE 802.1x ports are reinitialized and treated as normal IEEE 802.1x ports.
When you reconfigure a restricted VLAN as a different VLAN, any ports in the restricted VLAN are also moved, and the ports stay in their currently authorized state.
When you shut down or remove a restricted VLAN from the VLAN database, any ports in the restricted VLAN are immediately moved to an unauthorized state, and the authentication process restarts. The authenticator does not wait in a held state because the restricted VLAN configuration still exists. While the restricted VLAN is inactive, all authentication attempts are counted so that when the restricted VLAN becomes active, the port is immediately placed in the restricted VLAN.
The restricted VLAN is supported only in single host mode (the default port mode). For this reason, when a port is placed in a restricted VLAN, the supplicant's MAC address is added to the MAC address table, and any other MAC address that appears on the port is treated as a security violation.
Examples
This example shows how to configure a restricted VLAN on port 1:
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# dot1x auth-fail vlan 40
You can verify your configuration by entering the show dot1x [interface interface-id] privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
When you configure a guest VLAN, clients that are not 802.1x-capable are put into the guest VLAN when the server does not receive a response to its Extensible Authentication Protocol over LAN (EAPOL) request/identity frame. Clients that are 802.1x-capable but fail authentication are not granted access to the network.
Guest VLANs are supported on 802.1x ports in single-host mode and multiple-hosts mode.
The switch maintains the EAPOL packet history. If another EAPOL packet is detected on the interface during the lifetime of the link, the guest VLAN feature is disabled. If the port is already in the guest VLAN state, the port is returned to the unauthorized state, and authentication is restarted. The EAPOL history is reset upon loss of link.
Entering the dot1x guest-vlan supplicant global configuration command disables this behavior.
Any number of non-IEEE 802.1x-capable clients are allowed access when the switch port is moved to the guest VLAN. If an IEEE 802.1x-capable client joins the same port on which the guest VLAN is configured, the port is put into the unauthorized state in the user-configured access VLAN, and authentication is restarted.
Guest VLANs are supported on IEEE 802.1x ports in single-host or multiple-hosts mode.
You can configure any active VLAN except an RSPAN VLAN or a voice VLAN as an 802.1x guest VLAN. The guest VLAN feature is not supported on internal VLANs (routed ports) or trunk ports; it is supported only on access ports.
Examples
This example shows how to specify VLAN 5 as an 802.1x guest VLAN:
Switch(config-if)# dot1x guest-vlan 5
You can verify your settings by entering the show dot1x [interface interface-id] privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to limit an 802.1x-enabled port to a single client or to attach multiple clients to an 802.1x-enabled port. In multiple-hosts mode, only one of the attached hosts must be successfully authorized for all hosts to be granted network access. If the port becomes unauthorized (re-authentication fails or an Extensible Authentication Protocol over LAN [EAPOL]-logoff message is received), all attached clients are denied access to the network.
Before entering this command, make sure that the dot1x port-control interface configuration command is set to auto for the specified port.
The dot1x host-mode multi-domain interface configuration command is not supported on the switch. Configuring this command on an interface causes the interface to go into the error-disabled state.

Usage Guidelines
You must globally enable 802.1x on the switch by using the dot1x system-auth-control global configuration command before enabling 802.1x on a specific port.
The 802.1x protocol is supported on Layer 2 static-access ports, voice VLAN ports, and Layer 3 routed ports.
You can use the auto keyword only if the port is not configured as one of these:
•
Trunk port—If you try to enable 802.1x on a trunk port, an error message appears, and 802.1x is not enabled. If you try to change the mode of an 802.1x-enabled port to trunk, an error message appears, and the port mode is not changed.
•
Dynamic ports—A port in dynamic mode can negotiate with its neighbor to become a trunk port. If you try to enable 802.1x on a dynamic port, an error message appears, and 802.1x is not enabled. If you try to change the mode of an 802.1x-enabled port to dynamic, an error message appears, and the port mode is not changed.
•
Dynamic-access ports—If you try to enable 802.1x on a dynamic-access (VLAN Query Protocol [VQP]) port, an error message appears, and 802.1x is not enabled. If you try to change an 802.1x-enabled port to dynamic VLAN assignment, an error message appears, and the VLAN configuration is not changed.
•
EtherChannel port—Before enabling 802.1x on the port, you must first remove it from the EtherChannel. If you try to enable 802.1x on an EtherChannel or on an active port in an EtherChannel, an error message appears, and 802.1x is not enabled. If you enable 802.1x on a not-yet active port of an EtherChannel, the port does not join the EtherChannel.
•
Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) and Remote SPAN (RSPAN) destination ports—You can enable 802.1x on a port that is a SPAN or RSPAN destination port. However, 802.1x is disabled until the port is removed as a SPAN or RSPAN destination. You can enable 802.1x on a SPAN or RSPAN source port.
To globally disable 802.1x on the switch, use the no dot1x system-auth-control global configuration command. To disable 802.1x on a specific port, use the no dot1x port-control interface configuration command.
Examples
This example shows how to enable 802.1x on a port:

Usage Guidelines
You should change the default value of this command only to adjust for unusual circumstances such as unreliable links or specific behavioral problems with certain clients and authentication servers.
The dot1x timeout reauth-period interface configuration command affects the behavior of the switch only if you have enabled periodic re-authentication by using the dot1x reauthentication interface configuration command.
During the quiet period, the switch does not accept or initiate any authentication requests. If you want to provide a faster response time to the user, enter a smaller number than the default.
Examples
This example shows how to enable periodic re-authentication and to set 4000 as the number of seconds between re-authentication attempts:
Switch(config-if)# dot1x reauthentication
Switch(config-if)# dot1x timeout reauth-period 4000
This example shows how to set 30 seconds as the quiet time on the switch:
Switch(config-if)# dot1x timeout quiet-period 30
This example shows how to set 25 seconds as the switch-to-authentication server retransmission time:
Switch(config)# dot1x timeout server-timeout 25
This example shows how to set 25 seconds as the switch-to-client retransmission time for the EAP request frame:
Switch(config-if)# dot1x timeout supp-timeout 25
This example shows how to set 60 as the number of seconds to wait for a response to an EAP-request/identity frame from the client before resending the request:

|
half
|
Enable half-duplex mode (for Fast Ethernet ports only).

12.1(14)AX
|
This command was introduced.
|
12.2(25)EY
|
Support for the half keyword was added for the 100BASE-FX SFP module.
|
Usage Guidelines
For Fast Ethernet ports, setting the port to auto has the same effect as specifying half if the attached device does not autonegotiate the duplex parameter.
For Gigabit Ethernet ports, setting the port to auto has the same effect as specifying full if the attached device does not autonegotiate the duplex parameter.
Certain ports can be configured to be either full duplex or half duplex. Applicability of this command depends on the device to which the switch is attached.
If both ends of the line support autonegotiation, we highly recommend using the default autonegotiation settings. If one interface supports autonegotiation and the other end does not, configure duplex and speed on both interfaces; do use the auto setting on the supported side.
If the speed is set to auto, the switch negotiates with the device at the other end of the link for the speed setting and then forces the speed setting to the negotiated value. The duplex setting remains as configured on each end of the link, which could result in a duplex setting mismatch.
For 10/100 Mbps ports, if both speed and duplex are set to specific values, the link operates at the negotiated speed and duplex value.
For 10/100/1000 Mbps ports, if both the speed and duplex are set to specific values, autonegotiation is disabled.
Beginning with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)EY, you can configure the duplex setting when the speed is set to auto.
This command is not available on SFP module ports unless a 1000BASE-T SFP module or a 100BASE-FX MMF SFP module is in the port. All other SFP modules operate only in full-duplex mode.
•
When a 1000BASE-T SFP module is in the SFP module port, you can configure duplex mode to auto or full.
•
When a 100BASE-FX SFP module is in the SFP module port, you can configure duplex mode to half or full. Although the auto keyword is available, it puts the interface in half-duplex mode (the default) because the 100BASE-FX SFP module does not support autonegotiation.
Note
The 100BASE-FX SFP modules are not supported on the ES ports.
Caution 
Changing the interface speed and duplex mode configuration might shut down and reenable the interface during the reconfiguration.
For guidelines on setting the switch speed and duplex parameters, see the "Configuring Interface Characteristics" chapter in the software configuration guide for this release.
Examples
This example shows how to configure a port for full duplex operation:
Switch(config)# interface fastethernet1/0/11
Switch(config-if)# duplex full
You can verify your setting by entering the show interfaces privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
A cause (dtp-flap, gbic-invalid, l2ptguard, link-flap, loopback, and pagp-flap) is the reason why the error-disabled state occurred. When a cause is detected on an interface, the interface is placed in an error-disabled state, an operational state that is similar to link-down state.
When a port is error-disabled, it is effectively shut down, and no traffic is sent or received on the port.
If you set a recovery mechanism for the cause by entering the errdisable recovery global configuration command for the cause, the interface is brought out of the error-disabled state and allowed to retry the operation when all causes have timed out. If you do not set a recovery mechanism, you must enter the shutdown and then the no shutdown commands to manually recover an interface from the error-disabled state.
Examples
This example shows how to enable error-disabled detection for the link-flap error-disabled cause:
Switch(config)# errdisable detect cause link-flap
You can verify your setting by entering the show errdisable detect privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
A cause (bpduguard, dtp-flap, gbic-invalid, l2ptguard, link-flap, loopback, pagp-flap, psecure-violation, security-violation, udld, vmps) is defined as the reason why the error-disabled state occurred. When a cause is detected on an interface, the interface is placed in error-disabled state, an operational state similar to link-down state. If you do not enable errdisable recovery for the cause, the interface stays in error-disabled state until you enter a shutdown and no shutdown interface configuration command. If you enable the recovery for a cause, the interface is brought out of the error-disabled state and allowed to retry the operation again when all the causes have timed out.
Otherwise, you must enter the shutdown then no shutdown commands to manually recover an interface from the error-disabled state.
Examples
This example shows how to enable the recovery timer for the BPDU guard error-disable cause:
Switch(config)# errdisable recovery cause bpduguard
This example shows how to set the timer to 500 seconds:

Usage Guidelines
Use ethernet lmi global command to enable E-LMI globally. Use ethernet lmi ce command to enable the switch as E-LMI CE device.
Ethernet LMI is disabled by default on an interface and must be explicitly enabled by entering the ethernet lmi interface interface configuration command. The ethernet lmi global command enables Ethernet LMI in PE mode on all interfaces for an entire device. The benefit of this command is that you can enable Ethernet LMI on all interfaces with one command instead of enabling Ethernet LMI separately on each interface. To enable the interface in CE mode, you must also enter the ethernet lmi ce global configuration command.
To disable Ethernet LMI on a specific interface after you have entered the ethernet lmi global command, enter the no ethernet lmi interface interface configuration command.
The sequence in which you enter the ethernet lmi interface interface configuration and ethernet lmi global global configuration commands is important. The latest command entered overrides the prior command entered.
Note
For information about the ethernet lmi interface configuration command, see the Cisco IOS Carrier Ethernet Command Reference at this URL:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/cether/command/reference/ce_book.html
To enable the switch as an Ethernet LMI CE device, you must enter both the ethernet lmi global and ethernet lmi ce commands. By default Ethernet LMI is disabled, and, when enabled the switch is in provider-edge mode unless you also enter the ethernet lmi ce command.
When the switch is configured as an Ethernet LMI CE device, these interface configuration commands and keywords are visible, but not supported:
•
service instance

Usage Guidelines
You can apply this command to an Ethernet OAM template and to an interface. The interface configuration takes precedence over template configuration. To enter OAM template configuration mode, use the template template-name global configuration command.
You can configure an error-disable action to occur if the remote link goes down, if the remote device is disabled, or if the remote device disables Ethernet OAM on the interface.
The Catalyst 3750 Metro switch does not generate Link Fault or Critical Event OAM PDUs. However, if these PDUs are received from a link partner, they are processed. The switch supports generating and receiving Dying Gasp OAM PDUs when Ethernet OAM is disabled, the interface is shut down, the interface enters the error-disabled state, or the switch is reloading. It can respond to, but not generate, Dying Gasp PDUs based on loss of power.
For complete command and configuration information for the Ethernet OAM protocol, see the Cisco IOS Carrier Ethernet Configuration Guide at this URL:

Examples
This example shows how to configure an Ethernet OAM template for remote-failure indication when an unrecoverable error has occurred and how to apply it to an interface:
Switch(config)# template oam1
Switch(config-template)# ethernet oam remote-failure dying-gasp action error-disable
interface
Switch(config-template)# exit
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/1
Switch(config-if)# source template oam1
This example shows how to configure an Ethernet OAM remote-failure indication on one interface for unrecoverable errors:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/1
Switch(config-if)# ethernet oam remote-failure dying-gasp action error-disable interface

ethernet uni
Use the ethernet uni interface configuration command to set UNI bundling attributes. Use the no form of this command to return to the default bundling configuration.
ethernet uni {bundle [all-to-one] | multiplex}
no ethernet uni {bundle | multiplex}
Syntax Description
bundle
|
Configure the UNI to support bundling without multiplexing. This service supports only one Ethernet virtual connection (EVC) at the UNI with one or multiple customer edge (CE)-VLAN IDs mapped to the EVC.
|
all-to-one
|
(Optional) Configure the UNI to support bundling with a single EVC at the UNI and all CE VLANs mapped to that EVC.
|
multiplex
|
Configure the UNI to support multiplexing without bundling. The UNI can have one or more EVCs with a single CE-VLAN ID mapped to each EVC.
|
Defaults
If bundling or multiplexing attributes are not configured, the default is bundling with multiplexing. The UNI then has one or more EVCs with one or more CE VLANs mapped to each EVC.

Usage Guidelines
The UNI attributes determine the functionality that the interface has regarding bundling VLANs, multiplexing EVCs, and the combination of these.
If you want both bundling and multiplexing services for a UNI, you do not need to configure bundling or multiplexing. If you want only bundling, or only multiplexing, you need to configure it appropriately.
When you configure, change, or remove a UNI service type, the EVC and CE-VLAN ID configurations are checked to ensure that the configurations and the UNI service types match. If the configurations do not match, the command is rejected.
If you intend to use the ethernet lmi ce-vlan map any service configuration command, you must first configure all-to-one bundling on the interface. See the ethernet lmi ce-vlan map section for more information.
Examples
This example shows how to configure bundling without multiplexing:
Switch(config-if)# ethernet uni bundle
To verify UNI service type, enter the show ethernet service interface detail privileged EXEC command.

This example shows how to identify a unique UNI:
Switch(config-if)# ethernet uni id test2
Related Commands
flowcontrol
Use the flowcontrol interface configuration command to set the receive flow-control state for an interface. When flow control send is operable and on for a device and it detects any congestion at its end, it notifies the link partner or the remote device of the congestion by sending a pause frame. When flow control receive is on for a device and it receives a pause frame, it stops sending any data packets. This prevents any loss of data packets during the congestion period.
Use the receive off keywords to disable flow control.
flowcontrol receive {desired | off | on}
Note
The switch can only receive pause frames.
Syntax Description
receive
|
Sets whether the interface can receive flow-control packets from a remote device.
|
desired
|
Allows an interface to operate with an attached device that is required to send flow-control packets or with an attached device that is not required to but can send flow-control packets.
|
off
|
Turns off an attached device's ability to send flow-control packets to an interface.
|
on
|
Allows an interface to operate with an attached device that is required to send flow-control packets or with an attached device that is not required to but can send flow-control packets.

Usage Guidelines
The switch does not support sending flow-control pause frames.
Note that the on and desired keywords have the same result.
When you use the flowcontrol command to set a port to control traffic rates during congestion, you are setting flow control on a port to one of these conditions:
•
receive on or desired: The port cannot send out pause frames, but can operate with an attached device that is required to or is able to send pause frames; the port is able to receive pause frames.
•
receive off: Flow control does not operate in either direction. In case of congestion, no indication is given to the link partner and no pause frames are sent or received by either device.
Table 2-5 shows the flow control results on local and remote ports for a combination of settings. The table assumes that receive desired has the same results as using the receive on keywords.

Usage Guidelines
For Layer 2 EtherChannels, you do not have to create a port-channel first before assigning a physical port to a channel group. Instead, you can use the channel-group interface configuration command. It automatically creates the port-channel when the channel group gets its first physical port. If you create the port-channel first, the channel-group-number can be the same as the port-channel-number, or you can use a new number. If you use a new number, the channel-group command dynamically creates a new port channel.
You create Layer 3 port channels by using the interface port-channel command followed by the no switchport interface configuration command. You should manually configure the port-channel logical interface before putting the interface into the channel group.
Only one port channel in a channel group is allowed.
Caution 
When using a port-channel interface as a routed port, do not assign Layer 3 addresses on the physical ports that are assigned to the channel group.
Caution 
Do not assign bridge groups on the physical ports in a channel group used as a Layer 3 port-channel interface because it creates loops. You must also disable spanning tree.
Follow these guidelines when you use the interface port-channel command:
•
If you want to use the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), you must configure it only on the physical port and not on the port-channel.
•
Do not configure a port that is an active member of an EtherChannel as an 802.1x port. If 802.1x is enabled on a not-yet active port of an EtherChannel, the port does not join the EtherChannel.
For a complete list of configuration guidelines, see the "Configuring EtherChannels" chapter in the software guide for this release.
Examples
This example shows how to create port-channel 5:
Switch(config)# interface port-channel 5
You can verify your setting by entering the show running-config privileged EXEC or show etherchannel channel-group-number detail privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
When you enter interface range configuration mode, all interface parameters you enter are attributed to all interfaces within the range.
For VLANs, you can use the interface range command only on existing VLAN switch virtual interfaces (SVIs). To display VLAN SVIs, enter the show running-config privileged EXEC command. VLANs not displayed cannot be used in the interface range command. The commands entered under interface range command are applied to all existing VLAN SVIs in the range.
All configuration changes made to an interface range are saved to NVRAM, but the interface range itself is not saved to NVRAM.
You can enter the interface range in two ways:
•
Specifying up to five interface ranges
•
Specifying a previously defined interface-range macro
All interfaces in a range must be the same type; that is, all Fast Ethernet ports, all Gigabit Ethernet ports, all EtherChannel ports, or all VLANs. However, you can define up to five interface ranges with a single command, with each range separated by a comma.
Valid values for port-range type and interface:
•
vlan vlan-ID - vlan-ID, where VLAN ID is from 1 to 4094
•
port-channel port-channel-number - port-channel-number, where port-channel-number is from 1 to 12
Note
When you use the interface range command with port channels, the first and last port channel number in the range must be active port channels.
•
fastethernet switch number (always 1)/module/{first port} - {last port}
•
gigabitethernet switch number (always 1)/module/{first port} - {last port}
For physical interfaces:
•
The switch number is always 1.
•
The module number is 0 for 10/100 ports and standard SFP module slots and 1 for enhanced-services (ES) ports.
•
The range is type 1/module-number/number - number (for example, gigabitethernet 1/0/1 - 2).
When you define a range, you must enter a space between the first entry and the hyphen (-):
interface range gigabitethernet1/0/1 -2
When you define multiple ranges, you must still enter a space after the first entry, before the comma (,):
interface range fastethernet1/0/3 , gigabitethernet1/0/1 - 2
interface range fastethernet1/0/3 -5, fastethernet1/0/7 -8
You cannot specify both a macro and an interface range in the same command.
A single interface can also be specified in port-range (this would make the command similar to the interface interface-id global configuration command).
Note
For more information about configuring interface ranges, see the software configuration guide for this release.
Examples
This example shows how to use the interface range command to enter interface range configuration mode to apply commands to two ports:
Switch(config)# interface range gigabitethernet1/0/1 - 2
This example shows how to use a port-range macro macro1 for the same function. The advantage is that you can reuse macro1 until you delete it.
Switch(config)# define interface-range macro1 gigabitethernet1/0/1 - 2
Switch(config)# interface range macro macro1

Usage Guidelines
You cannot delete the VLAN 1 interface.
SVIs are created the first time that you enter the interface vlan vlan-id command for a particular VLAN. The vlan-id corresponds to the VLAN-tag associated with data frames on an ISL or 802.1Q encapsulated trunk or the VLAN ID configured for an access port.
Note
When you create an SVI, it does not become active until it is associated with a physical port.
If you delete an SVI by entering the no interface vlan vlan-id command, the deleted interface is no longer visible in the output from the show interfaces privileged EXEC 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.
The interrelationship between the number of SVIs configured on a switch and the number of other features being configured might have an impact on CPU utilization due to hardware limitations. You can use the sdm prefer global configuration command to reallocate system hardware resources based on templates and feature tables. For more information, see the sdm prefer command.
Examples
This example shows how to create a new SVI with VLAN ID 23 and enter interface configuration mode:
Switch(config)# interface vlan 23
You can verify your setting by entering the show interfaces and show interfaces vlan vlan-id privileged EXEC commands.

Usage Guidelines
You can apply named or numbered standard or extended IP access lists to an interface. To define an access list by name, use the ip access-list global configuration command. To define a numbered access list, use the access list global configuration command. You can used numbered standard access lists ranging from 1 to 99 and 1300 to 1999 or extended access lists ranging from 100 to 199 and 2000 to 2699.
You can use this command to apply an access list to a Layer 2 or Layer 3 interface. However, note these limitations for Layer 2 interfaces (port ACLs):
•
You can only apply ACLs in the inbound direction; the out keyword is not supported for Layer 2 interfaces.
•
You can only apply one IP ACL and one MAC ACL per interface.
•
Layer 2 interfaces do not support logging; if the log keyword is specified in the IP ACL, it is ignored.
•
An IP ACL applied to a Layer 2 interface only filters IP packets. To filter non-IP packets, use the mac access-group interface configuration command with MAC extended ACLs.
You can use router ACLs, input port ACLs, and VLAN maps on the same switch. However, a port ACL takes precedence over a router ACL or VLAN map.
•
When an input port ACL is applied to an interface and a VLAN map is applied to a VLAN that the interface is a member of, incoming packets received on ports with the ACL applied are filtered by the port ACL. Other packets are filtered by the VLAN map
•
When an input router ACL and input port ACLs exist in an switch virtual interface (SVI), incoming packets received on ports to which a port ACL is applied are filtered by the port ACL. Incoming routed IP packets received on other ports are filtered by the router ACL. Other packets are not filtered.
•
When an output router ACL and input port ACLs exist in an SVI, incoming packets received on the ports to which a port ACL is applied are filtered by the port ACL. Outgoing routed IP packets are filtered by the router ACL. Other packets are not filtered.
•
When a VLAN map, input router ACLs, and input port ACLs exist in an SVI, incoming packets received on the ports to which a port ACL is applied are only filtered by the port ACL. Incoming routed IP packets received on other ports are filtered by both the VLAN map and the router ACL. Other packets are filtered only by the VLAN map.
•
When a VLAN map, output router ACLs, and input port ACLs exist in an SVI, incoming packets received on the ports to which a port ACL is applied are only filtered by the port ACL. Outgoing routed IP packets are filtered by both the VLAN map and the router ACL. Other packets are filtered only by the VLAN map.
You can apply IP ACLs to both outbound or inbound Layer 3 interfaces.
A Layer 3 interface can have one IP ACL applied in each direction.
You can configure only one VLAN map and one router ACL in each direction (input/output) on a VLAN interface.
For standard inbound access lists, after the switch receives a packet, it checks the source address of the packet against the access list. IP extended access lists can optionally check other fields in the packet, such as the destination IP address, protocol type, or port numbers. If the access list permits the packet, the switch continues to process the packet. If the access list denies the packet, the switch discards the packet. If the access list has been applied to a Layer 3 interface, discarding a packet (by default) causes the generation of an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) Host Unreachable message. ICMP Host Unreachable messages are not generated for packets discarded on a Layer 2 interface.
For standard outbound access lists, after receiving a packet and sending it to a controlled interface, the switch checks the packet against the access list. If the access list permits the packet, the switch sends the packet. If the access list denies the packet, the switch discards the packet and, by default, generates an ICMP Host Unreachable message.
If the specified access list does not exist, all packets are passed.
Examples
This example shows how to apply IP access list 101 to inbound packets on a port:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip access-group 101 in
You can verify your settings by entering the show ip interface, show access-lists, or show ip access-lists privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
If you remove the switch IP address through a Telnet session, your connection to the switch will be lost.
Hosts can determine subnet masks using the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) Mask Request message. Routers respond to this request with an ICMP Mask Reply message.
You can disable IP processing on a particular interface by removing its IP address with the no ip address command. If the switch detects another host using one of its IP addresses, it will send an error message to the console.
You can use the optional keyword secondary to specify an unlimited number of secondary addresses. Secondary addresses are treated like primary addresses, except the system never generates datagrams other than routing updates with secondary source addresses. IP broadcasts and ARP requests are handled properly, as are interface routes in the IP routing table.
Note
If any router on a network segment uses a secondary address, all other devices on that same segment must also use a secondary address from the same network or subnet. Inconsistent use of secondary addresses on a network segment can very quickly cause routing loops.
When you are routing Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), ensure that all secondary addresses of an interface fall into the same OSPF area as the primary addresses.
If your switch receives its IP address from a Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) or DHCP server and you remove the switch IP address by using the no ip address command, IP processing is disabled, and the BOOTP or DHCP server cannot reassign the address.
A Layer 3 switch can have an IP address assigned to each routed port and SVI. The number of routed ports and SVIs that you can configure is not limited by software; however, the interrelationship between this number and the number of other features being configured might have an impact on CPU utilization due to hardware limitations. You can use the sdm prefer global configuration command to reallocate system hardware resources based on templates and feature tables. For more information, see the sdm prefer command.
Examples
This example shows how to configure the IP address for the Layer 2 switch on a subnetted network:
Switch(config)# interface vlan 1
Switch(config-if)# ip address 172.20.128.2 255.255.255.0
This example shows how to configure the IP address for a port on the Layer 3 switch:
Switch(config)# ip multicast-routing
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# no switchport
Switch(config-if)# ip address 172.20.128.2 255.255.255.0
You can verify your settings by entering the show running-config privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
When an ARP ACL is applied to a VLAN for dynamic ARP inspection, only the ARP packets with IP-to-MAC address bindings are compared against the ACL. If the ACL permits a packet, the switch forwards it. All other packet types are bridged in the ingress VLAN without validation.
If the switch denies a packet because of an explicit deny statement in the ACL, the packet is dropped. If the switch denies a packet because of an implicit deny statement, the packet is then compared against the list of DHCP bindings (unless the ACL is static, which means that packets are not compared against the bindings).
Use the arp access-list acl-name global configuration command to define the ARP ACL or to add clauses to the end of a predefined list.
Examples
This example shows how to apply the ARP ACL static-hosts to VLAN 1 for dynamic ARP inspection:
Switch(config)# ip arp inspection filter static-hosts vlan 1
You can verify your settings by entering the show ip arp inspection vlan 1 privileged EXEC command.

|
none
|
Specify no upper limit for the rate of incoming ARP packets that can be processed.
|
Defaults
The rate is 15 pps on 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 applies to both trusted and untrusted interfaces. Configure appropriate rates on trunks to process packets across multiple dynamic ARP inspection-enabled VLANs, or use the none keyword to make the rate unlimited.
After a switch receives more than the configured rate of packets every second consecutively over a number of burst seconds, the interface is placed into an error-disabled state.
Unless you explicitly configure a rate limit on an interface, changing the trust state of the interface also changes its rate limit to the default value for that trust state. After you configure the rate limit, the interface retains the rate limit even when its trust state is changed. If you enter the no ip arp inspection limit interface configuration command, the interface reverts to its default rate limit.
You should configure trunk ports with higher rates to reflect their aggregation. When the rate of incoming packets exceeds the user-configured rate, the switch places the interface into an error-disabled state. The error-disable recovery feature automatically removes the port from the error-disabled state according to the recovery setting.
The rate of incoming ARP packets on EtherChannel ports equals the sum of the incoming rate of ARP packets from all channel members. Configure the rate limit for EtherChannel ports only after examining the rate of incoming ARP packets on all the channel members.
Examples
This example shows how to limit the rate of incoming ARP requests on a port to 25 pps and to set the interface monitoring interval to 5 consecutive seconds:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip arp inspection limit rate 25 burst interval 5
You can verify your settings by entering the show ip arp inspection interfaces interface-id privileged EXEC command.

ip arp inspection log-buffer
Use the ip arp inspection log-buffer global configuration command on the switch stack or on a standalone switch to configure the dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) inspection logging buffer. Use the no form of this command to return to the default settings.
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 to be logged in the buffer. The range is 0 to 1024.
|
logs number interval seconds
|
Number of entries needed in the specified interval to generate system messages.
For logs number, the range is 0 to 1024. A 0 value means that the entry is placed in the log buffer, but a system message is not generated.
For interval seconds, the range is 0 to 86400 seconds (1 day). A 0 value means that a system message is immediately generated (and the log buffer is always empty).
|
Defaults
When dynamic ARP inspection is enabled, denied or dropped ARP packets are logged.
The number of log entries is 32.
The number of system messages is limited to 5 per second.
The logging-rate interval is 1 second.

Usage Guidelines
A value of 0 is not allowed for both the logs and the interval keywords.
The logs and interval settings interact. If the logs number X is greater than interval seconds Y, X divided by Y (X/Y) system messages are sent every second. Otherwise, one system message is sent every Y divided by X (Y/X) seconds. For example, if the logs number is 20 and the interval seconds is 4, the switch generates system messages for five entries every second while there are entries in the log buffer.
A log buffer entry can represent more than one packet. For example, if an interface receives many packets on the same VLAN with the same ARP parameters, the switch combines the packets as one entry in the log buffer and generates a system message as a single entry.
If the log buffer overflows, it means that a log event does not fit into the log buffer, and the output display for the show ip arp inspection log privileged EXEC command is affected. A -- in the display appears in place of all data except the packet count and the time. No other statistics are provided for the entry. If you see this entry in the display, increase the number of entries in the log buffer, or increase the logging rate.
Examples
This example shows how to configure the logging buffer to hold up to 45 entries:
Switch(config)# ip arp inspection log-buffer entries 45
This example shows how to configure the logging rate to 20 log entries per 4 seconds. With this configuration, the switch generates system messages for five entries every second while there are entries in the log buffer.
Switch(config)# ip arp inspection log-buffer logs 20 interval 4
You can verify your settings by entering the show ip arp inspection log privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
The switch does not check ARP packets that it receives on the trusted interface; it simply forwards the packets.
For untrusted interfaces, the switch intercepts all ARP requests and responses. It verifies that the intercepted packets have valid IP-to-MAC address bindings before updating the local cache and before forwarding the packet to the appropriate destination. The switch drops invalid packets and logs them in the log buffer according to the logging configuration specified with the ip arp inspection vlan logging global configuration command.
Examples
This example shows how to configure a port to be trusted:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
Switch(config-if)# ip arp inspection trust
You can verify your setting by entering the show ip arp inspection interfaces interface-id privileged EXEC command.

ip arp inspection validate {[src-mac] [dst-mac] [ip [allow zeros]]}
no ip arp inspection validate [src-mac] [dst-mac] [ip [allow zeros]]
Syntax Description
src-mac
|
Compare the source MAC address in the Ethernet header against the sender MAC address in the ARP body. This check is performed on both ARP requests and responses.
When enabled, packets with different MAC addresses are classified as invalid and are dropped.
|
dst-mac
|
Compare the destination MAC address in the Ethernet header against the target MAC address in ARP body. This check is performed for ARP responses.
When enabled, packets with different MAC addresses are classified as invalid and are dropped.
|
ip
|
Compare the ARP body for invalid and unexpected IP addresses. Addresses include 0.0.0.0, 255.255.255.255, and all IP multicast addresses.
Sender IP addresses are compared in all ARP requests and responses. Target IP addresses are compared only in ARP responses.
|

|
Usage Guidelines
You must specify at least one of the keywords. Each command overrides the configuration of the previous command; that is, if a command enables src-mac and dst-mac validations, and a second command enables IP validation only, the src-mac and dst-mac validations are disabled as a result of the second command.
The allow-zeros keyword interacts with ARP access control lists (ACLs) in this way:
•
If you configure an ARP ACL to deny ARP probes, they are dropped even if the allow-zero keyword is specified.
•
If you configure an ARP ACL that specifically permits ARP probes and configure the ip arp inspection validate ip command, ARP probes are dropped unless you enter the allow-zeros keyword.
The no form of the command disables only the specified checks. If none of the options are enabled, all checks are disabled.
Examples

Switch(config)# ip arp inspection validate src-mac
You can verify your setting by entering the show ip arp inspection vlan vlan-range privileged EXEC command.

|
acl-match {matchlog | none}
|
Specify that the logging of packets is based on access control list (ACL) matches.
The keywords have these meanings:
• matchlog—Log packets based on the logging configuration specified in the access control entry (ACE). If you specify the matchlog keyword in this command and the log keyword in the permit or deny Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) access-list configuration command, ARP packets permitted or denied by the ACL are logged.
• none—Do not log packets that match ACLs.
|
dhcp-bindings {permit | all | none}
|

|
Usage Guidelines
The term logged means that the entry is placed into the log buffer and that a system message is generated.
The acl-match and dhcp-bindings keywords merge with each other; that is, when you configure an ACL match, the DHCP bindings configuration is not disabled. Use the no form of the command to reset the logging criteria to their defaults. If neither option is specified, all types of logging are reset to log when ARP packets are denied. These are the options:
•
acl-match—Logging on ACL matches is reset to log on deny.
•
dhcp-bindings—Logging on DHCP binding matches is reset to log on deny.
If neither the acl-match or the dhcp-bindings keywords are specified, all denied packets are logged.
The implicit deny at the end of an ACL does not include the log keyword. This means that when you use the static keyword in the ip arp inspection filter vlan global configuration command, the ACL overrides the DHCP bindings. Some denied packets might not be logged unless you explicitly specify the deny ip any mac any log ACE at the end of the ARP ACL.
Examples
This example shows how to configure ARP inspection on VLAN 1 to log packets that match the permit commands in the ACL:
Switch(config)# arp access-list test1
Switch(config-arp-nacl)# permit request ip any mac any log
Switch(config-arp-nacl)# permit response ip any any mac any any log
Switch(config-arp-nacl)# exit
Switch(config)# ip arp inspection vlan 1 logging acl-match matchlog

Usage Guidelines
The DHCP snooping binding database can have up to 512 bindings.
To ensure that the lease time in the database is accurate, we recommend that Network Time Protocol (NTP) is enabled and configured for these features:
•
NTP authentication
•
NTP peer and server associations
•
NTP broadcast service
•
NTP access restrictions
•
NTP packet source IP address
If NTP is configured, the switch writes binding changes to the binding file only when the switch system clock is synchronized with NTP.
Because both NVRAM and the flash memory have limited storage capacity, we recommend that you store a binding file on a TFTP server. You must create an empty file at the configured URL on network-based URLs (such as TFTP and FTP) before the switch can write bindings to the binding file at that URL for the first time.
Use the ip dhcp snooping database flash:/filename command to save the DHCP snooping binding database in the stack master NVRAM. The database is not saved in a stack member NVRAM.
Use the no ip dhcp snooping database command to disable the agent.
Use the no ip dhcp snooping database timeout command to reset the timeout value.
Use the no ip dhcp snooping database write-delay command to reset the write-delay value.
Examples
This example shows how to store a binding file at an IP address of 10.1.1.1 that is in a directory called directory. A file named file must be present on the TFTP server.
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping database tftp://10.1.1.1/directory/file
This example shows how to store a binding file called file01.txt in the stack master NVRAM.
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping database flash:file01.txt

Usage Guidelines
You must globally enable DHCP snooping by using the ip dhcp snooping global configuration command for any DHCP snooping configuration to take effect.
When the option-82 feature is enabled and a switch receives a DHCP request from a host, it adds the option-82 information in the packet. The option-82 information contains the switch MAC address (the remote ID suboption) and the port identifier, vlan-mod-port, from which the packet is received (circuit ID suboption). The switch forwards the DHCP request that includes the option-82 field to the DHCP server.
When the DHCP server receives the packet, it can use the remote ID, the circuit ID, or both to assign IP addresses and implement policies, such as restricting the number of IP addresses that can be assigned to a single remote ID or a circuit ID. Then the DHCP server echoes the option-82 field in the DHCP reply.
The DHCP server unicasts the reply to the switch if the request was relayed to the server by the switch. When the client and server are on the same subnet, the server broadcasts the reply. The switch inspects the remote ID and possibly the circuit ID fields to verify that it originally inserted the option-82 data. The switch removes the option-82 field and forwards the packet to the switch port that connects to the DHCP host that sent the DHCP request.
Examples
This example shows how to enable DHCP option-82 data insertion:
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping information option
You can verify your settings by entering the show ip dhcp snooping privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
You might want an edge switch to which a host is connected to insert DHCP option-82 information at the edge of your network. You might also want to enable DHCP security features, such as DHCP snooping, IP source guard, or dynamic Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) inspection, on an aggregation switch. However, if DHCP snooping is enabled on the aggregation switch, the switch drops packets with option-82 information that are received on an untrusted port and does not learn DHCP snooping bindings for connected devices on a trusted interface.
If the edge switch to which a host is connected inserts option-82 information and you want to use DHCP snooping on an aggregation switch, enter the ip dhcp snooping information option allowed-untrusted command on the aggregation switch. The aggregation switch can learn the bindings for a host even though the aggregation switch receives DHCP snooping packets on an untrusted port. You can also enable DHCP security features on the aggregation switch. The port on the edge switch to which the aggregation switch is connected must be configured as a trusted port.
Note
Do not enter the ip dhcp snooping information option allowed-untrusted command on an aggregation switch to which an untrusted device is connected. If you enter this command, an untrusted device might spoof the option-82 information.
Examples
This example shows how to configure an access switch to not check the option-82 information in untrusted packets from an edge switch and to accept the packets:
Switch(config)# ip dhcp snooping information option allowed-untrusted
You can verify your settings by entering the show ip dhcp snooping privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
Normally, the rate limit applies to untrusted interfaces. If you want to configure rate limiting for trusted interfaces, keep in mind that trusted interfaces might aggregate DHCP traffic on multiple VLANs (some of which might not be snooped) in the switch, and you will need to adjust the interface rate limits to a higher value.
If the rate limit is exceeded, the interface is error-disabled. If you enabled error recovery by entering the errdisable recovery dhcp-rate-limit global configuration command, the interface retries the operation again when all the causes have timed out. If the error-recovery mechanism is not enabled, the interface stays in the error-disabled state until you enter the shutdown and no shutdown interface configuration commands.
Examples
This example shows how to set a message rate limit of 150 messages per second on an interface:
Switch(config-if)# ip dhcp snooping limit rate 150
You can verify your settings by entering the show ip dhcp snooping privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
In a service-provider network, when a switch receives a packet from a DHCP client on an untrusted port, it automatically verifies that the source MAC address and the DHCP client hardware address match. If the addresses match, the switch forwards the packet. If the addresses do not match, the switch drops the packet.
Examples
This example shows how to disable the MAC address verification:
Switch(config)# no ip dhcp snooping verify mac-address
You can verify your settings by entering the show ip dhcp snooping privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines
You must globally enable DHCP snooping by using the ip dhcp snooping global configuration command for any DHCP snooping configuration to take effect.
When the option-82 feature is enabled, the default circuit-ID suboption is the switch VLAN and port identifier, in the format vlan-mod-port. This command allows you to configure a string of ASCII characters to be the circuit ID. When you want to override the vlan-mod-port format type and instead use the circuit-ID to define subscriber information, use the override keyword.
Note
When configuring a large number of circuit IDs on a switch, consider the impact of lengthy character strings on the NVRAM or flash memory. If the circuit-ID configurations, combined with other data, exceed the capacity of the NVRAM or flash memory, an error message appears.
Examples
This example shows how to configure the option-82 circuit-ID suboption:
Switch(config-if)# ip dhcp snooping vlan 250 information option format-type circuit-id
string customerABC-250-0-0
This example shows how to configure the option-82 circuit-ID override suboption:
Switch(config-if)# ip dhcp snooping vlan 250 information option format-type circuit-id
override string testcustomer
You can verify your settings by entering the show ip dhcp snooping user EXEC command.
Note
The show ip dhcp snooping command only displays the global command output, including a remote-ID configuration. It does not display any per-interface, per-VLAN string that you have configured for the circuit ID.

Usage Guidelines
You can use this command only on Layer 2 physical interfaces and on logical EtherChannel interfaces. You cannot set IGMP maximum groups for routed ports, switch virtual interfaces (SVIs), or ports that belong to an EtherChannel group.
Follow these guidelines when configuring the IGMP throttling action:
•
If you configure the throttling action as deny and set the maximum group limitation, the entries that were previously in the forwarding table are not removed but are aged out. After these entries are aged out, when the maximum number of entries is in the forwarding table, the switch drops the next IGMP report received on the interface.
•
If you configure the throttling action as replace and set the maximum group limitation, the entries that were previously in the forwarding table are removed. When the maximum number of entries is in the forwarding table, the switch replaces a randomly selected multicast entry with the received IGMP report.
•
When the maximum group limitation is set to the default (no maximum), entering the ip igmp max-groups {deny | replace} command has no effect.
Examples
This example shows how to limit to 25 the number of IGMP groups that a port can join.
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/2
Switch(config-if)# ip igmp max-groups 25
This example shows how to configure the switch to replace the existing group with the new group for which the IGMP report was received when the maximum number of entries is in the forwarding table:

Usage Guidelines
Use this command to enable IGMP snooping to detect the IGMP version and IP address of a device that sends IGMP query messages, which is also called a querier.
By default, the IGMP snooping querier is configured to detect devices that use IGMP Version 2 (IGMPv2) but does not detect clients that are using IGMP Version 1 (IGMPv1). You can manually configure the max-response-time value when devices use IGMPv2. You cannot configure the max-response-time when devices use IGMPv1. (The value cannot be configured and is set to zero).
Non-RFC compliant devices running IGMPv1 might reject IGMP general query messages that have a non-zero value as the max-response-time value. If you want the devices to accept the IGMP general query messages, configure the IGMP snooping querier to run IGMPv1.
VLAN IDs 1002 to 1005 are reserved for Token Ring and FDDI VLANs and cannot be used in IGMP snooping.

Usage Guidelines
IGMP report suppression is supported only when the multicast query has IGMPv1 and IGMPv2 reports. This feature is not supported when the query includes IGMPv3 reports.
The switch uses IGMP report suppression to forward only one IGMP report per multicast router query to multicast devices. When IGMP router suppression is enabled (the default), the switch sends the first IGMP report from all hosts for a group to all the multicast routers. The switch does not send the remaining IGMP reports for the group to the multicast routers. This feature prevents duplicate reports from being sent to the multicast devices.
If the multicast router query includes requests only for IGMPv1 and IGMPv2 reports, the switch forwards only the first IGMPv1 or IGMPv2 report from all hosts for a group to all the multicast routers. If the mulitcast router query also includes requests for IGMPv3 reports, the switch forwards all IGMPv1, IGMPv2, and IGMPv3 reports for a group to the multicast devices.
If you disable IGMP report suppression by entering the no ip igmp snooping report-suppression command, all IGMP reports are forwarded to all the multicast routers.
Examples
This example shows how to disable report suppression:
Switch(config)# no ip igmp snooping report-suppression
You can verify your settings by entering the show ip igmp snooping privileged EXEC command.

ip vrf (global configuration)
Use the ip-vrf global configuration command to configure a virtual private network (VPN) routing/forwarding (VRF) routing table and to enter VRF configuration mode. Use the no form of this command to remove a VRF routing table and to return to global configuration mode.
ip vrf vrf-name
no ip vrf vrf-name
Note
The switch supports multiple VPN routing/forwarding instances in customer edge devices (multi-VRF CE).
Syntax Description
vrf-name
|
Name assigned to a VRF.
|
Defaults
No VRFs are defined.
No import or export lists are associated with a VRF.
No route maps are associated with a VRF.
Command Modes

|
This command was introduced.
|
Usage Guidelines
Entering the ip vrf command enables the VRF configuration mode. These configuration commands are available:
•
default: sets a command (description, export, import, maximum, route-target) to its default.
•
description: describes the VRF (up to 80 characters).
•
exit: exits VRF configuration mode and returns you to global configuration mode.
•
export map route-map: sets a route map to be used as an export route map for the VRF.
•
import map route-map: sets a route map to be used as an import route map for the VRF.
•
maximum routes limit {warn threshold | warn-only}: limits the maximum number of routes in a VRF to prevent a provider edge (PE) router from importing too many routes. The range is from 1 to 4294967295; the threshold is a percentage of the limit, from 1 to 100.
•
no: negates a command or sets its defaults.
•
rd: specifies a Route Distinguisher (RD) as either ASN-relative, containing an autonomous system number and an arbitrary number, or IP-address-relative, containing an IP address and an arbitrary number.
–
16-bit AS number: your arbitrary 32-bit number (for example, 101:3)
–
32-bit IP address: your arbitrary 16-bit number (for example, 192.168.122.15:1.)
•
route-target {import | export | both} route-target-ext-community: specifies target VPN extended communities. You can specify the target for export, import, or both.
To return to global configuration mode, use the exit command. To return to privileged EXEC mode, use the end command.
The switch supports a total of 26 VRFs and VPNs.
Use an import route map when an application requires finer control over the routes imported into a VRF than provided by the import and export extended communities configured for the importing and exporting VRF. The import map command associates a route map with the specified VRF. By using a route map, you can filter routes that are eligible for import into a VRF, based on the route target extended community attributes of the route. The route map might deny access to selected routes from a community that is on the import list.
If you set a maximum routes threshold, the switch rejects routes when the threshold limit is reached. If you enter warn-only, the switch issues a syslog error message when the maximum number of VRF routes exceeds the allowed limit, but still allows additional routes.
An RD creates routing and forwarding tables and specifies the default route distinguisher for a VPN. You must configure a route distinguisher for a VRF to be functional. The RD is added to the beginning of the customer's IPv4 prefixes to change them into globally unique VPN-IPv4 prefixes.
The route target specifies a target VPN extended community. Like a route-distinguisher, an extended community is composed of either an autonomous system number and an arbitrary number or an IP address and an arbitrary number.
The ip vrf vrf-name command creates a VRF routing table and a Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) forwarding table, both named vrf-name. Associated with these tables is the default route distinguisher value route-distinguisher.
Examples
This example shows how to create the VRF named vpn1, enter VRF configuration mode, and import a route map to the VRF:
Switch(config)# ip vrf vpn1
Switch(config-vrf)# rd 100:2
Switch(config-vrf)# route-target both 100:2
Switch(config-vrf)# route-target import 100:1

Usage Guidelines
To configure the dual IPv4 and IPv6 template, enter the sdm prefer dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 {default | routing | vlan) global configuration command, and reload the switch.
The ipv6 access-list command is similar to the ip access-list command, but it is IPv6-specific.
IPv6 ACLs are defined by a unique name (IPv6 does not support numbered ACLs). An IPv4 ACL and an IPv6 ACL cannot share the same name.
See the deny (IPv6 access-list configuration) and permit (IPv6 access-list configuration) commands for more information on filtering IPv6 traffic based on IPv6 option headers and optional, upper-layer protocol-type information. See the "Examples" section for an example of a translated IPv6 ACL configuration.
Every IPv6 ACL has implicit permit icmp any any nd-na, permit icmp any any nd-ns, and deny ipv6 any any statements as its last match conditions. The two permit conditions allow ICMPv6 neighbor discovery. To disallow ICMPv6 neighbor discovery and to deny icmp any any nd-na or icmp any any nd-ns, there must be an explicit deny entry in the ACL. For the implicit deny ipv6 any any statement to take effect, an IPv6 ACL must contain at least one entry.
The IPv6 neighbor discovery process uses the IPv6 network layer service; therefore, by default, IPv6 ACLs implicitly allow IPv6 neighbor discovery packets to be sent and received on an interface. In IPv4, the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), which is equivalent to the IPv6 neighbor discovery process, uses a separate data-link layer protocol; therefore, by default, IPv4 ACLs implicitly allow ARP packets to be sent and received on an interface.
Use the ipv6 traffic-filter interface configuration command with the access-list-name argument to apply an IPv6 ACL to an IPv6 interface. You can apply inbound and outbound IPv6 ACLs to Layer 3 physical interfaces or to switch virtual interfaces for routed ACLs, but only inbound IPv6 ACLs to Layer 2 interfaces for port ACLs.
Note
An IPv6 ACL applied to an interface with the ipv6 traffic-filter command filters traffic that is forwarded by the switch and does not filter traffic generated by the switch.
Examples
This example puts the switch in IPv6 access list configuration mode, configures the IPv6 ACL named list2, and applies the ACL to outbound traffic on an interface. The first ACL entry prevents all packets from the network FE80:0:0:2::/64 (packets that have the link-local prefix FE80:0:0:2 as the first 64 bits of their source IPv6 address) from leaving the interface. The second entry in the ACL permits all other traffic to leave the interface. The second entry is necessary because an implicit deny-all condition is at the end of each IPv6 ACL.
Switch(config)# ipv6 access-list list2
Switch(config-ipv6-acl)# deny FE80:0:0:2::/64 any
Switch(config-ipv6-acl)# permit any any
Switch(config-ipv6-acl)# exit
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet0/3
Switch(config-if)# no switchport
Switch(config-if)# ipv6 address 2001::/64 eui-64
Switch(config-if)# ipv6 traffic-filter list2 out
Note
IPv6 ACLs that rely on the implicit deny condition or specify a deny any any statement to filter traffic should contain permit statements for link-local addresses to avoid the filtering of protocol packets. Additionally IPv6 ACLs that use deny statements to filter traffic should also use a permit any any statement as the last statement in the list.

Usage Guidelines
To configure the dual IPv4 and IPv6 template, enter the sdm prefer dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 {default | vlan} global configuration command, and reload the switch.
DHCPv6 pool configuration mode commands:
•
address prefix IPv6-prefix: sets an address prefix for address assignment. This address must be in hexadecimal, using 16-bit values between colons.
•
lifetime t1 t2: sets a valid and a preferred time interval (in seconds) for the IPv6 address. The range is 5 to 4294967295 seconds. The valid default is 2 days. The preferred default is 1 day. The valid lifetime must be greater than or equal to the preferred lifetime. Specify infinite for no time interval.
•
link-address IPv6-prefix: sets a link-address IPv6 prefix. When an address on the incoming interface or a link-address in the packet matches the specified IPv6-prefix, the server uses the configuration information pool. This address must be in hexadecimal, using 16-bit values between colons.
•
vendor-specific: enables the DHCPv6 vendor-specific configuration mode with these configuration commands:
–
vendor-id: enter a vendor-specific identification number. This number is the vendor IANA Private Enterprise Number. The range is 1 to 4294967295.
–
suboption number: sets vendor-specific suboption number. The range is 1 to 65535. Enter an IPv6 address, ASCII text, or a hexadecimal string as defined by the suboption parameters.
After you create the DHCPv6 configuration information pool, use the ipv6 dhcp server interface configuration command to associate the pool with a server on an interface. However, if you do not configure an information pool, you still need to use the ipv6 dhcp server interface configuration command to enable the DHCPv6 server function on an interface.
When you associate a DHCPv6 pool with an interface, only that pool services requests on the associated interface. The pool also services other interfaces. If you do not associate a DHCPv6 pool with an interface, it can service requests on any interface.
Not using any IPv6 address prefix means that the pool only returns configured options.
The link-address keyword allows matching of a link-address without necessarily allocating an address. You can match the pool from multiple relays by using multiple link-address configuration commands inside a pool.
Because a longest match is performed on either the address pool information or the link information, you can configure one pool to allocate addresses and another pool on a subprefix that only returns configured options.
Examples
This example shows how to configure a pool called engineering with an IPv6 address prefix:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# ipv6 dhcp pool engineering
Switch(config-dhcpv6)# address prefix 2001:1000::0/64
Switch(config-dhcpv6)# end
This example shows how to configure a pool called testgroup with three link-address prefixes and an IPv6 address prefix:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# ipv6 dhcp pool testgroup
Switch(config-dhcpv6)# link-address 2001:1001::0/64
Switch(config-dhcpv6)# link-address 2001:1002::0/64
Switch(config-dhcpv6)# link-address 2001:2000::0/48
Switch(config-dhcpv6)# address prefix 2001:1003::0/64
Switch(config-dhcpv6)# end
This example shows how to configure a pool called 350 with vendor-specific options:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# ipv6 dhcp pool 350
Switch(config-dhcpv6)# vendor-specific 9
Switch(config-dhcpv6-vs)# suboption 1 address 1000:235D::1
Switch(config-dhcpv6-vs)# suboption 2 ascii "IP-Phone"
Switch(config-dhcpv6-vs)# end

Usage Guidelines
The ipv6 dhcp server interface configuration command enables DHCPv6 service on a specified interface.
If you enter the automatic keyword, the system automatically determine which pool to use when allocating addresses for a client. When the server receives an IPv6 DHCP packet, the server determines if it was received from a DHCP relay or if it was directly received from the client. If the packet was received from a relay, the server verifies the link-address field inside the packet associated with the first relay that is closest to the client. The server matches this link-address against all address prefix and link-address configurations in IPv6 DHCP pools to find the longest prefix match. The server selects the pool associated with the longest match.
If the packet was received directly from the client, the server performs this same matching, but it uses all the IPv6 addresses configured on the incoming interface when performing the match. Once again, the server selects the longest prefix match.
If you enter the allow-hint keyword, the server allocates a valid client-suggested address in the solicit and request messages. The prefix address is valid if it is in the associated local prefix address pool and it is not assigned to a device. If the allow-hint keyword is not specified, the server ignores the client hint, and an address is allocated from the free list in the pool.
If you configure the preference keyword with a value other than 0, the server adds a preference option to carry the preference value for the advertise messages. This action affects the selection of a server by the client. Any advertise message that does not include a preference option is considered to have a preference value of 0. If the client receives an advertise message with a preference value of 255, the client immediately sends a request message to the server from which the message was received.
Entering the rapid-commit keyword enables the use of the two-message exchange.
The DHCPv6 client, server, and relay functions are mutually exclusive on an interface. When one of these functions is already enabled and you try to configure a different function on the same interface, the switch returns one of these messages:
Interface is in DHCP client mode
Interface is in DHCP server mode
Interface is in DHCP relay mode
Examples
This example enables DHCPv6 for the pool named testgroup:
Switch(config-if)# ipv6 dhcp server testgroup
