[<context-name>]asr5000(config-bulkstats)#

Usage Guidelines

The Bulk Statistics Configuration mode consists of commands for configuring bulk statistic properties, such as the periodicity of collection. Detailed command descriptions appear in the Bulk Statistics Configuration Mode Commands chapter.

The collected bulk statistics are sent to a collection server (called a receiver). Bulk statistics are statistics that are collected in a group or schema, for example, system statistics, port statistics, RADIUS statistics.

Once the receiver, schema, and collection properties are configured, the bulkstats collection command enables or disables the collection of the data.

To collect a sample that will provide an average, for example, an average of CPU counters, the "historical" features must be enabled with the bulkstats historical collection command.

Since bulk statistics are collected at regular, user-defined intervals, the Exec mode bulkstats force command can be used to manually initiate the immediate collection of statistics.

default

Resets the keywords to their default values.

access { monitor-protocol | monitor-subscriber | show-configuration } { operator | administrator }

Sets access privileges on the monitor protocol and monitor subscriber commands:

monitor-protocol: Selects privileges for the monitor protocol command.

monitor-subscriber: Selects privileges for the monitor subscriber command.

show-configuration: Selects privileges for the show-configurationcommand. However the default access level for this command is the user with operator privileges.

operator: Sets the privileges for the selected command to allow use by users with operator privileges.

administrator: Restricts use of the selected command to administrators only.

configuration-monitor

When this keyword is enabled, the system executes a show configuration checksum command every 15-minutes. The resulting checksum is compared with the previous checksum.

When a configuration change is detected, a log message and SNMP notification are generated. The SNMP notification only indicates that a change has occurred without identifying what change had been made.

The 15-minute interval is fixed and cannot be configured. By default configuration monitoring is disabled.

hidden

Allows a Security Administrator to enable access to hidden cli test-commands command.

The no cli hidden command disables access to the cli test-commands command. This is the default mode. Refer to the description of the test-commands keyword below for additional information.

login-failure-delay number

Specifies the time to wait before a login failure is returned and another login may be attempted. Default is five seconds.

max-sessions number

Sets the number of allowed simultaneous CLI sessions on the system. If this value is set to a number below the current number of open CLI sessions, the open sessions will continue until closed. number must be an integer from 2 through 100.

Caution

Use caution when setting this command. Limiting simultaneous CLI sessions prevents authorized users from accessing the system if the maximum number allowed has been reached. The system already limits CLI sessions based on available resources. Additional limitation could have adverse effects.

operator clear-subscriber-one-only

Restricts Operator to clearing only one subscriber session at a time.

test-commands [encrypted] password password_string

Enables access to the CLI test-commands. The commands and keywords made available under this mode are for internal testing and debugging.

Caution

CLI test-commands are intended for diagnostic use only. Access to these commands is not required during normal system operation. These command are intended for use only by Cisco TAC personnel. Some of these commands can slow system performance, drop subscribers, and/or render the system inoperable

encrypted: Specifies that the system will save the password in an encrypted format in the configuration file. The system displays the encrypted keyword in the configuration file as a flag indicating that the variable following the password keyword is the encrypted version of the plain text password. Only the encrypted password is saved as part of the configuration file.

password password_string: Prompts for the password required to access CLI test-commands. This password must have been previously configured by a Security Administrator via the tech-suport test-commands password command. The password is an alphanumeric string of 1 through 64 characters (plain text password) or 1 through 524 characters (encrypted password).

If the password keyword is not entered, the user is prompted (no-echo) to enter the password. If tech-support test-commands password has not been enabled, you will be unable to execute cli test-commands.

Once this test mode is entered under Global Configuration mode, CLI test-commands become part of the current configuration. Therefore, any generated configuration file will contain the cli test-commands command as the first configuration command.

Caution

Use of CLI test-commands may cause significant service interruption. Contact Cisco TAC before executing any commands while in this mode.

The no cli test-commands command disables access to the CLI test-commands mode.

trap config-mode

Enables sending an SNMP trap (starCLIConfigMode) when a CLI user enters the configuration mode.

Usage Guidelines

This command sets access parameters and enables several operational parameters for the system's command line interface.

Syntax Description

[ default | no ] congestion-control

default

Sets the congestion control to its default value.

no

Disables the congestion control functionality. This is the default behavior.

Usage Guidelines

Congestion control on the system is used to monitor the system for conditions that could potentially degrade performance when the system is under heavy load. Typically, these conditions are temporary (i.e high CPU or memory utilization) and are quickly resolved. However, continuous or large numbers of these conditions within a specific time interval may impact the system's ability to service subscriber sessions. The purpose of congestion control is to aid in the identification of such conditions and invoke policies for addressing the situation.

Since the congestion control functionality on the system is disabled by default, this command should be executed once congestion-control thresholds and policies have been configured. (Refer to the other congestion-control related commands for more information.)

This command enables and disables the policy for disconnecting passive calls (chassis-wide) during an overload situation. It also configures and fine-tunes the overload-disconnect congestion control policy for an entire chassis.

Thresholds dictate the conditions for which congestion control is to be enabled and establish limits for defining the state of the system (congested or clear). These thresholds function in a similar fashion to the operation thresholds that can be configured for the system (as described in later in this chapter). The primary difference is that when these thresholds are reached, not only is an SNMP trap generated (starCongestion), but a service congestion policy is invoked as well.

The tolerance parameter establishes the threshold at which the condition is cleared. An SNMP trap (starCongestionClear) is generated for the clear condition, as well.

When the service-control-cpu-utilization critical threshold setting is exceeded, ipsecmgrs running in the congested CPU are notified of the congestion. The ipsecmgrs raise traps for service-congestion exceeded and update the NPU so that no new calls are sent to those ipsecmgrs. The NPU does not send any new calls to the congested ipsecmgrs. However, if all ipsecmgrs are congested the action is always drop regardless of the setting for congestion policy action. The packet drops are silently done by the NPU.

When ipsecmgrs are congested and an NPU receives a packet whose Security Parameter Index, Initiator (SPIi) in IKE_SA_INIT matches that of a currently established session, the packet is classified as belonging to the existing session. Since congestion action is applied only on new sessions, such IKE_SA_INIT packets are allowed to create sessions. If the IKE_SA_INIT uses an SPIi which does not match any of the existing sessions, it is processed according to the congestion policy action.

Disables the specified crypto peer list.

peer_list_name

Specifies the name of the peer list as an alphanumeric string of one through 32 characters.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to enable an SecGW to initiate an IKEv2 session setup request when the peer does not initiate a setup request within a specified time interval. Executing this command moves you to the Peer List Configuration mode. This functionality is only applicable for site-to-site (S2S) based tunnels within a WSG service. For remote access tunnels the peer is always the initiator. (VPC-VSM only)

When a peer list has been configured in the WSG service, the initiator and responder mode timer intervals each default to 10 seconds. The SecGW will wait for 10 seconds in the responder mode for a peer session initiation request before switching to the initiator mode and waiting 10 seconds for a peer response.

You can change the default settings for the initiator and/or responder mode intervals using the WSG Service Configuration mode initiator-mode-duration and responder-mode-duration commands.

For additional information, refer to the Peer List Configuration Mode Commands and WSG Service Configuration Mode Commands chapters of this guide. Also see the Security Gateway as Initiator chapter in the IPSec Reference.

Specifies the remote secret list for storing remote secrets based on the ID type. This command sends you to the Remote Secret List Configuration mode. Only one active remote-secret-list is supported per system.

listname

Specifies the name of the remote secret list as an alphanumeric string from 1 to 127 characters.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to specify the remote secret list for storing remote secrets based on the ID type. Only one remote-secret-list can be configured per system. Executing this command places you in the Remote Secret List Configuration mode.

This list of remote pre-shared keys is based on the remote ID type. The remote secret list can contain up to 1000 entries.

pathname

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to configure the location of the white file to be used by a WSG.

A whitelist is a list or register of entities that are being provided a particular privilege, service, mobility, access or recognition. With whitelisting, no peer is allowed to connect unless it appears in the list.

Each entry in the whitelist file should contain the ID type so that the validation is performed for that ID type. In every entry, the ID type and ID value should be separated by a space. Only DOS and UNIX file formatting are supported. For additional information, refer to the System Administration Guide.

This command creates/removes an HNB-CS network configuration instance for Famed UMTS access over Iu-CS/Iu-Flex interface between Home NodeB Gateway (HNB-GW) service and CS networks elements; i.e. MSC/VLR. This command also configures an existing HNB-CS network instance and enters the HNB-CS Network Configuration mode on a system.

Syntax

Syntax Description

cs-network cs_instance [ -noconfirm ]
no cs-network cs_instance

no

Removes the specified HNB-CS network instance from the system.

Caution

Removing the HNB-CS network instance is a disruptive operation and it will affect all UEs accessing MSC(s) configured in specific CS core network through the HNB-GW service.

Caution

If any HNB-CS Network instance is removed from system all parameters configured in that mode will be deleted and Iu-CS/Iu-Flex interface will be disabled.

cs_instance

Specifies the name of the Circuit Switched Core Networks instance which needs to be associated with the HNB Radio Network PLMN via the HNB RN-PLMN Configuration mode. If cs_instance does not refer to an existing HNB-PS network instance, the new HNB-CS network instance is created.

cs_instance must be an alphanumeric string of 1 through 63 characters.

-noconfirm

Indicates that the command is to execute without any additional prompt and confirmation from the user.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to enter the HNB-CS Network Configuration mode for an existing CS network instance or for a newly defined HNB-CS network instance. This command is also used to remove an existing HNB-CS network instance.

This configuration enables/disables the Iu-CS/Iu-Flex interface on HNB-GW service with CS core network elements; i.e. MSC/VLR.

A maximum of one HNB-CS network instance per HNB-GW service instance which is further limited to a maximum of 256 services (regardless of type) can be configured per system.

Caution

This is a critical configuration. The HNBs cannot access MSC(s) in CS core network without this configuration. Any change to this configuration would lead to disruption in HNB access to CS core network.
