Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover

First Published: December 4, 2006
Last Updated: November 20, 2009

The Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover feature provides the capability for dual Route Processor systems to support stateful switchover of Point-to-Point Protocol over X (PPPoX, where X designates a family of encapsulating communications protocols such as PPPoE, PPPoA, PPPoEoA, PPPoEoVLAN implementing PPP) sessions. Hence allows applications and features to maintain stateful state while system control and routing protocol execution is transferred between an active and a standby processor.

Information About Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover

To configure the Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover feature, you should understand the following concepts:

•Feature Design of Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover

•Benefits of Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover

Feature Design of Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover

Prior to the implementation of the Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover feature, unplanned control plane and dataplane failures resulted in service outages and network downtime for PPPoX sessions. Cisco High Availability features, including SSO, enable network protection by providing fast recovery from such failures. The Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover feature eliminates a source of outages by providing for stateful switchover to a standby processor while continuing to forward traffic. SSO protects from hardware or software faults on an active Route Processor by synchronizing protocol and state information for supported features with a standby Route Processor, helping to ensure no interruption of sessions or connections if a switchover occurs.

The SSO feature takes advantage of route-processor redundancy by establishing one of the Route Processors as the active processor, designating the other Route Processor as the standby processor, and then synchronizing critical state information between them. Following an initial (bulk) synchronization between the two processors, SSO dynamically maintains Route Processor state information between them. A switchover from the active to the standby processor occurs when the active Route Processor fails, when it is removed from the networking device, or when it is manually taken down for maintenance. The standby Route Processor then takes control and becomes the active Route Processor, preserving the sessions and connections for the supported features. At this time, packet forwarding continues while route convergence is completed on the newly active Route Processor. A critical component of SSO and Cisco HA technology is the cluster control manager (CCM) that manages session recreation on the standby processor. The Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover feature allows you to configure subscriber redundancy policies that tune the synchronization process. For more information see the "Configuring Subscriber Redundancy Policy for Broadband HA Stateful Switchover" section.

The Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover feature works with the Cisco IOS NSF and SSO HA features, to maintain PPPoX sessions. NSF continues forwarding network traffic and application state information so that user session information is maintained after a switchover.

Supported Broadband Aggregation Protocols

The Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover feature set supports the broadband aggregation protocols described in the following sections:

•SSO PPPoA

•SSO PPPoE

•SSO RA-MLPS VPN

SSO PPPoA

The Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover feature delivers stateful switchover capability for PPP over ATM (PPPoA) sessions during Route Processor switchover.

SSO PPPoE

The Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover feature delivers stateful switchover capability for PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) subscriber access sessions, including PPPoE, PPPoEoVLAN, and PPPoE802.1q-in-q sessions.

SSO RA-MLPS VPN

The Cisco IOS Broadband High Availability Stateful Switchover feature delivers stateful switchover capability for PPPoX terminated into remote access (RA)-MPLS VPN or PPPoX into MPLS VPN sessions during processor switchover.

Figure 1 shows a typical broadband aggregation HA deployment with SSO functionality.

This command is useful for obtaining statistics for PPPoA sessions. Use the show pppatm statistics command to display a total count of PPPoA events since the clear pppatm statistics command was last issued.

The following example displays PPPoA statistics: 

Router# show pppatm statistics


	4000 : Context Allocated events

	3999 : SSS Request events

	7998 : SSS Msg events

	3999 : PPP Msg events

	3998 : Up Pending events

	3998 : Up Dequeued events

	3998 : Processing Up events

	3999 : Vaccess Up events

	3999 : No AAA method list set events

	3999 : AAA gets nas port details events

	3999 : AAA gets retrived attrs events

	68202 : AAA gets dynamic attrs events

	3999 : Access IE allocated events

Step 5 show pppoe statistics

This command is useful for obtaining statistics and events for PPPoE sessions. Use the show pppoe statistics command to display a cumulative count of PPPoE events and statistics, and to display an incremental count since the last time the clear pppoe statistics command was issued.

Step 6 show ccm queues

Use the show ccm queues command to display queue statistics for CCM sessions on active and standby processors. This command is generally used only by Cisco engineers for internal debugging of CCM processes.

The following is sample output from the show ccm queues command: 

Router# show ccm queues

Step 7 show redundancy

Use the show redundancy command to display current or historical status and related information on planned or logged handovers. The following is sample output from the show redundancy clients command from a Cisco 10000 Series router active processor: 

Router# show redundancy clients


Active Location = slot A

        Current Software state = ACTIVE

       Uptime in current state = 2 hours, 4 minutes

                 Image Version = Cisco IOS Software, 10000 Software (C10K3-P11-M), 
Experimental Version 12.2(20090624:122305) [sinb-CSCta34118-v122_33_SB5 102]

        Configuration register = 0x2102

Step 8 show pppatm redundancy

Use the show pppatm redundancy command to display PPPoA HA sessions summary: 

Router# show pppatm redundancy



0 : Session recreate requests from CCM

     0 : Session up events invoked

            the number of incoming call attempts seen by pppoa

     0 : Sessions reaching PTA

            the number of sessions that reached a complete negotiation and were 
successfully terminated

     0 : Sessions closed by CCM

     0 : Session down events invoked

            the number of sessions that were brought down

     0 : Sessions queued for VC up notification so far

            the number of sessions that were pending completion

     0 : Sessions queued for VC encap change notification so far

            the number of sessions in a message queue that required a virtual-circuit 
encapsulation change

     0 : VC activation notifications received from ATM

            the number of create on demand VC up notifications caused by the reception of 
a FSOL for PPPoA

     0 : VC encap change notifications received from ATM

            the number of sessions that required an encap (aal5xxx) change

Step 9 debug pppatm redundancy

Use the debug pppatm redundancy command to display CCM events and messages for PPPoA sessions on HA systems. This command is generally used only by Cisco engineers for internal debugging of CCM processes. The following is sample output from the debug pppatm redundancy command from a Cisco 10000 Series router standby processor: 

Router# debug pppatm redundancy


*Dec  3 02:58:40.784: PPPATM HA: [14000001]: Received the first SHDB 

*Dec  3 02:58:40.784: PPPATM HA: [14000001]: Base hwidb not created yet, queuing SHDB 

*Dec  3 02:58:40.784: PPPATM HA: [14000001]: 

Requesting base vaccess creation

>

Step 10 debug pppoe redundancy

Use the debug pppoe redundancy command to display CCM events and messages for PPPoE sessions on HA systems. This command is generally used only by Cisco engineers for internal debugging of CCM processes. The following is sample output for the debug pppoe redundancy command from a Cisco 10000 series router active processor: 

Router# debug pppoe redundancy
