This guide describes the protocols and features the Dell Networking Operating System (OS) supports and provides configuration instructions and examples for implementing them. For complete information about all the CLI commands, see the Dell Command Line Reference Guide for your system.
In the Dell Networking OS, after you enter a command, the command is added to the running configuration file. You can view the current configuration for the whole system or for a particular CLI mode. To save the current configuration, copy the running configuration to another location.
Page 34
You can set user access rights to commands and command modes using privilege levels. The Dell Networking OS CLI is divided into three major mode levels: • EXEC mode is the default mode and has a privilege level of 1, which is the most restricted level. Only a limited selection of commands is available, notably the show commands, which allow you to view system information.
GRUB Navigating CLI Modes The Dell Networking OS prompt changes to indicate the CLI mode. The following table lists the CLI mode, its prompt, and information about how to access and exit the CLI mode. Move linearly through the command modes, except for the end command which takes you directly to EXEC Privilege mode and the exit command which moves you up one command mode level.
You can enter an EXEC mode command from any CONFIGURATION mode (CONFIGURATION, INTERFACE, SPANNING TREE, and so on.) without having to return to EXEC mode by preceding the EXEC mode command with the do command. The following example shows the output of the do command. Dell(conf)#do show system brief Stack MAC : 4c:76:25:f5:06:80...
Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1/1)#show config interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1/1/1 no ip address no shutdown Layer 2 protocols are disabled by default. To enable Layer 2 protocols, use the no disable command. For example, in PROTOCOL SPANNING TREE mode, enter no disable to enable Spanning Tree.
The variable specified_text is the text for which you are filtering and it IS case sensitive unless you use the ignore-case sub- option. Starting with Dell Networking OS version 7.8.1.0, the grep command accepts an ignore-case sub-option that forces the search to case-insensitive. For example, the commands: •...
Dell# NOTE: Dell Networking OS accepts a space or no space before and after the pipe. To filter a phrase with spaces, underscores, or ranges, enclose the phrase with double quotation marks. The except keyword displays text that does not match the specified text. The following example shows this command used in combination with the show system brief command.

This chapter describes how you start configuring your system. When you power up the chassis, the system performs a power-on self test (POST) and system then loads the Dell Networking Operating System. Boot messages scroll up the terminal window during this process. No user interaction is required if the boot process proceeds without interruption.
Accessing the RJ-45 Console Port with a DB-9 Adapter. Install an RJ-45 copper cable into the console port.Use a rollover (crossover) cable to connect the S6100–ON console port to a terminal server. Connect the other end of the cable to the DTE terminal server.
Connect the micro USB-B end of cable into the micro USB-B console port on the system. Power on the system. Install the necessary USB device drivers. (To download the drivers, go to http://www.dell.com/support.) For assistance, contact Dell Networking Technical Support.
Default Configuration Although a version of Dell Networking OS is pre-loaded onto the system, the system is not configured when you power up the system first time (except for the default hostname, which is Dell). You must configure the system using the CLI.

Dell Networking recommends coping your running-configuration to the startup-configuration. The commands in this section follow the same format as those commands in the Copy Files to and from the System section but use the filenames startup-configuration and running-configuration.
For information about setting the router overload bit for a specific period of time after a switch reload is implemented, see the Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) section in the Dell Command Line Reference Guide for your system. Viewing Files You can only view file information and content on local file systems.
10.16.200.254 Managing the File System The Dell Networking system can use the internal Flash, external Flash, or remote devices to store files. The system stores files on the internal Flash by default but can be configured to store files elsewhere.
To copy a file on the USB device, enter usbflash:// followed by the filename. In the Dell Networking OS release 9.8(0.0), HTTP services support the VRF-aware functionality. If you want the HTTP server to use a VRF table that is attached to an interface, configure that HTTP server to use a specific routing table. You can use the ip http vrf command to inform the HTTP server to use a specific routing table.
To validate a software image: Download Dell Networking OS software image file from the iSupport page to the local (FTP or TFTP) server. The published hash for that file displays next to the software image file on the iSupport page.
Management This chapter describes the different protocols or services used to manage the Dell Networking system. Topics: • Configuring Privilege Levels • Configuring Logging • Log Messages in the Internal Buffer • Disabling System Logging • Sending System Messages to a Syslog Server •...
• restricting access to an EXEC mode command • moving commands from EXEC Privilege to EXEC mode • restricting access A user can access all commands at his privilege level and below. Removing a Command from EXEC Mode To remove a command from the list of available commands in EXEC mode for a specific privilege level, use the privilege exec command from CONFIGURATION mode.
When you assign a privilege level between 2 and 15, access to the system begins at EXEC mode, but the prompt is hostname#, rather than hostname>. Configuring Logging The Dell Networking OS tracks changes in the system using event and error messages. By default, Dell Networking OS logs these messages on: •...
• The network administrator and network operator user roles can view system events. NOTE: If extended logging is disabled, you can only view system events, regardless of RBAC user role. Example of Enabling Audit and Security Logs Dell(conf)#logging extended Management...

On the switch, enable the SSH server Dell(conf)#ip ssh server enable On the syslog server, create a reverse SSH tunnel from the syslog server to the Dell OS switch, using following syntax: ssh -R <remote port>:<syslog server>:<syslog server listen port> user@remote_host -nNf In the following example the syslog server IP address is 10.156.166.48 and the listening port is 5141.
Log Messages in the Internal Buffer All error messages, except those beginning with %BOOTUP (Message), are log in the internal buffer. For example, %BOOTUP:RPM0:CP %PORTPIPE-INIT-SUCCESS: Portpipe 0 enabled Configuration Task List for System Log Management There are two configuration tasks for system log management: •...
Track Login Activity Dell Networking OS enables you to track the login activity of users and view the successful and unsuccessful login events. When you log in using the console or VTY line, the system displays the last successful login details of the current user and the number of unsuccessful login attempts since your last successful login to the system, and whether the current user’s permissions have changed since...
Example of the show login statistics all command The show login statistics all command displays the successful and failed login details of all users in the last 30 days or the custom defined time period. Dell#show login statistics all ------------------------------------------------------------------ User: admin Last login time: 08:54:28 UTC Wed Mar 23 2016 Last login location: Line vty0 ( 10.16.127.145 )
Limit Concurrent Login Sessions Dell Networking OS enables you to limit the number of concurrent login sessions of users on VTY, auxiliary, and console lines. You can also clear any of your existing sessions when you reach the maximum permitted number of concurrent sessions.
Example of Configuring Concurrent Session Limit The following example limits the permitted number of concurrent login sessions to 4. Dell(config)#login concurrent-session limit 4 Enabling the System to Clear Existing Sessions To enable the system to clear existing login sessions, follow this procedure: •...
CONFIGURATION mode logging buffered size NOTE: When you decrease the buffer size, Dell Networking OS deletes all messages stored in the buffer. Increasing the buffer size does not affect messages in the buffer. • Specify the number of messages that Dell Networking OS saves to its logging history table.
When RBAC is enabled, the security logs are filtered based on the user roles. Only the security administrator and system administrator can view the security logs. Example of the show logging Command Dell#show logging Syslog logging: enabled Console logging: level debugging...
Dell# Synchronizing Log Messages You can configure Dell Networking OS to filter and consolidate the system messages for a specific line by synchronizing the message output. Only the messages with a severity at or below the set level appear. This feature works on the terminal and console connections available on the system.
File Transfer Services With Dell Networking OS, you can configure the system to transfer files over the network using the file transfer protocol (FTP). One FTP application is copying the system image files over an interface on to the system; however, FTP is not supported on virtual local area network (VLAN) interfaces.
• Enable FTP on the system. CONFIGURATION mode ftp-server enable Example of Viewing FTP Configuration Dell#show running ftp ftp-server enable ftp-server username nairobi password 0 zanzibar Dell# Configuring FTP Server Parameters After you enable the FTP server on the system, you can configure different parameters.
(aux) connects secondary devices such as modems. Denying and Permitting Access to a Terminal Line Dell Networking recommends applying only standard access control lists (ACLs) to deny and permit access to VTY lines. • Layer 3 ACLs deny all traffic that is not explicitly permitted, but in the case of VTY lines, an ACL with no rules does not deny traffic.
You can use any combination of up to six authentication methods to authenticate a user on a terminal line. A combination of authentication methods is called a method list. If the user fails the first authentication method, Dell Networking OS prompts the next method until all methods are exhausted, at which point the connection is terminated.
Dell(config-line-vty)# Setting Timeout for EXEC Privilege Mode EXEC timeout is a basic security feature that returns Dell Networking OS to EXEC mode after a period of inactivity on the terminal lines. To set timeout, use the following commands. •...
Dell# Lock CONFIGURATION Mode Dell Networking OS allows multiple users to make configurations at the same time. You can lock CONFIGURATION mode so that only one user can be in CONFIGURATION mode at any time (Message 2). You can set two types of lockst: auto and manual.
• After the restore is complete, the units power cycle immediately. The following example illustrates the restore factory-defaults command to restore the factory default settings.

802.1X employs Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) to transfer a device’s credentials to an authentication server (typically RADIUS) using a mandatory intermediary network access device, in this case, a Dell Networking switch. The network access device mediates all communication between the end-user device and the authentication server so that the network remains secure. The network access device uses EAP-over-Ethernet (EAPOL) to communicate with the end-user device and EAP-over-RADIUS to communicate with the server.
Page 81
The device with which the supplicant communicates is the authenticator. The authenticator is the gate keeper of the network. It translates and forwards requests and responses between the authentication server and the supplicant. The authenticator also changes the status of the port based on the results of the authentication process. The Dell Networking switch is the authenticator. •...
• Re-Authenticating a Port • Configuring Dynamic VLAN Assignment with Port Authentication • Guest and Authentication-Fail VLANs • Multi-Host Authentication • Multi-Supplicant Authentication • MAC Authentication Bypass • Dynamic CoS with 802.1X Port-Authentication Process The authentication process begins when the authenticator senses that a link status has changed from down to up: When the authenticator senses a link state change, it requests that the supplicant identify itself using an EAP Identity Request frame.
79. Figure 6. EAP Over RADIUS RADIUS Attributes for 802.1X Support Dell Networking systems include the following RADIUS attributes in all 802.1X-triggered Access-Request messages: Attribute 31 Calling-station-id: relays the supplicant MAC address to the authentication server. Attribute 41 NAS-Port-Type: NAS-port physical port type.
Important Points to Remember • Dell Networking OS supports 802.1X with EAP-MD5, EAP-OTP, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, PEAPv0, PEAPv1, and MS-CHAPv2 with PEAP. • All platforms support only RADIUS as the authentication server. • If the primary RADIUS server becomes unresponsive, the authenticator begins using a secondary RADIUS server, if configured.
Verify that 802.1X is enabled globally and at the interface level using the show running-config | find dot1x command from EXEC Privilege mode. In the following example, the bold lines show that 802.1X is enabled. Dell#show running-config | find dot1x dot1x authentication [output omitted]...

Private-Group-ID The illustration shows the configuration on the Dell Networking system before connecting the end user device in black and blue text, and after connecting the device in red text. The blue text corresponds to the preceding numbered steps on dynamic VLAN assignment with 802.1X.
Guest and Authentication-Fail VLANs Typically, the authenticator (the Dell system) denies the supplicant access to the network until the supplicant is authenticated. If the supplicant is authenticated, the authenticator enables the port and places it in either the VLAN for which the port is configured or the VLAN that the authentication server indicates in the authentication data.
The example shows configuration information for a port for which the authenticator terminates the authentication process for an unresponsive supplicant or server after 15 seconds. The bold lines show the new supplicant and server timeouts.

When multiple end users are connected to a single authenticator port, single-host mode authentication does not authenticate all end users, and all but one are denied access to the network. For these cases, the Dell Networking OS supports multi-host mode authentication.
To verify the currently configured authentication mode, enter the show dot1x interface command. Dell(conf-if-te-2/1)# dot1x host-mode multi-host Dell(conf-if-te-2/1)# do show dot1x interface tengigabitethernet 2/1 802.1x information on Te 2/1: -----------------------------...
To verify the currently configured authentication mode, enter the show dot1x interface command. Dell(conf-if-te-1/3)# dot1x host-mode multi-auth Dell(conf-if-te-1/3)# do show dot1x interface tengigabitethernet 1/3 802.1x information on Te 1/3: -----------------------------...
To restrict the number of devices that 802.1X can authenticate on a port in multi-supplicant (multi-auth) mode, enter the dot1x max- supplicants number command in Interface mode. By default, the maximum number of multi-supplicant devices is 128. Dell(conf-if-te-2/1)# dot1x max-supplicants 4 MAC Authentication Bypass MAC authentication bypass (MAB) enables you to provide MAC-based security by allowing only known MAC addresses within the network using a RADIUS server.
If MAB times out or MAC authentication fails, the port is placed into the guest VLAN. If both MAB and re-authentication are enabled, when the re-auth period finishes and whether the previous authentication was through MAB or 802.1X, 802.1X authentication is tried first.

ACL, and DSCP). Once traffic is classified, you can use Quality of Service (QoS) traffic management to control the level of service for a class in terms of bandwidth and delivery time. For incoming traffic, the Dell Networking OS allows you to set a static priority value on a per-port basis or dynamically set a priority on a per-port basis by leveraging 802.1X.
Page 102
If multi-supplicant authentication mode is enabled on a port, you can configure a CoS mapping table for specified MAC addresses in the RADIUS server. Dell Networking OS then maintains a per-MAC CoS table for each port, and marks the priority of all traffic originating from a configured MAC address with the corresponding table value.
Access Control Lists (ACLs) This chapter describes access control lists (ACLs), prefix lists, and route-maps. At their simplest, access control lists (ACLs), prefix lists, and route-maps permit or deny traffic based on MAC and/or IP addresses. This chapter describes implementing IP ACLs, IP prefix lists and route-maps. For MAC ACLS, refer to Layer An ACL is essentially a filter containing some criteria to match (examine IP, transmission control protocol [TCP], or user datagram protocol [UDP] packets) and an action to take (permit or deny).
When creating an access list, the sequence of the filters is important. You have a choice of assigning sequence numbers to the filters as you enter them, or the Dell Networking Operating System (OS) assigns numbers in the order the filters are created. The sequence numbers are listed in the display output of the show config and show ip accounting access-list commands.
The status column indicates whether you can enable the policy. Example of the Command test cam-usage Dell#test cam-usage service-policy input asd stack-unit 1 port-set 0 Stack-unit|Portpipe|CAM Partition|Available CAM|Estimated CAM per Port|Status -------------------------------------------------------------------------- IPv4Flow|...

In cases where class-maps with overlapping ACL rules are applied to different queues, use the order keyword to specify the order in which you want to apply ACL rules. The order can range from 0 to 254. Dell Networking OS writes to the CAM ACL rules with lower-order numbers (order numbers closer to 0) before rules with higher-order numbers so that packets are matched as you intended.
You can create multiple instances of this route map by using the sequence number option to place the route maps in the correct order. Dell Networking OS processes the route maps with the lowest sequence number first. When a configured route map is applied to a...
Page 108
When there are multiple match commands with the same parameter under one instance of route-map, Dell Networking OS does a match between all of those match commands. If there are multiple match commands with different parameters, Dell Networking OS does a match ONLY if there is a match among ALL the match commands.
In the following example, instance 10 permits the route having a tag value of 1000 and instances 20 and 30 deny the route having a tag value of 1000. In this scenario, Dell Networking OS scans all the instances of the route-map for any permit statement. If there is a match anywhere, the route is permitted.

Route maps on their own cannot affect traffic and must be included in different commands to affect routing traffic. Route redistribution occurs when Dell Networking OS learns the advertising routes from static or directly connected routes or another routing protocol. Different protocols assign different values to redistributed routes to identify either the routes and their origins. The metric value is the most common attribute that is changed to properly redistribute other routes into a routing protocol.
In the following example, the redistribute command calls the route map static ospf to redistribute only certain static routes into OSPF. According to the route map static ospf, only routes that have a next hop of Tengigabitethernet interface 1/1/1/1 and that have a metric of 255 are redistributed into the OSPF backbone area.
For IP ACL, Dell Networking OS always applies implicit deny. You do not have to configure it. • For IP ACL, Dell Networking OS applies implicit permit for second and subsequent fragment just prior to the implicit deny. • If you configure an explicit deny, the second and subsequent fragments do not hit the implicit permit rule for fragments.
To configure an ACL, use commands in IP ACCESS LIST mode and INTERFACE mode. For a complete list of all the commands related to IP ACLs, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Line Interface Reference Guide. To set up extended ACLs, refer to Configure an Extended IP ACL.
Configuring a Standard IP ACL Filter If you are creating a standard ACL with only one or two filters, you can let Dell Networking OS assign a sequence number based on the order in which the filters are configured. The software assigns filters in multiples of five.
To view all configured IP ACLs, use the show ip accounting access-list command in EXEC Privilege mode. The following examples shows how to view a standard ACL filter sequence for an interface. Dell#show ip accounting access example interface gig 4/12 Extended IP access list example...
Configuring Filters Without a Sequence Number If you are creating an extended ACL with only one or two filters, you can let Dell Networking OS assign a sequence number based on the order in which the filters are configured. Dell Networking OS assigns filters in multiples of five.
If both L2 and L3 ACLs are applied to an interface, the following rules apply: • When Dell Networking OS routes the packets, only the L3 ACL governs them because they are not filtered against an L2 ACL. • When Dell Networking OS switches the packets, first the L3 ACL filters them, then the L2 ACL filters them.
To view which IP ACL is applied to an interface, use the show config command in INTERFACE mode, or use the show running- config command in EXEC mode. Example of Viewing ACLs Applied to an Interface Dell(conf-if)#show conf interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1/1/1 ip address 10.2.1.100 255.255.255.0...
To specify ingress, use the in keyword. Begin applying rules to the ACL with the ip access-list extended abcd command. To view the access-list, use the show command.

Dell Networking OS Behavior: Virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP) hellos and internet group management protocol (IGMP) packets are not affected when you enable egress ACL filtering for CPU traffic. Packets sent by the CPU with the source address as the VRRP virtual IP address have the interface MAC address instead of VRRP virtual MAC address.
(permit or deny) to process routes. The filters are processed in sequence so that if a route prefix does not match the criterion in the first filter, the second filter (if configured) is applied. When the route prefix matches a filter, Dell Networking OS drops or forwards the packet based on the filter’s designated action.
Page 123
To delete a filter, use the no seq sequence-number command in PREFIX LIST mode.If you are creating a standard prefix list with only one or two filters, you can let Dell Networking OS assign a sequence number based on the order in which the filters are configured. The Dell Networking OS assigns filters in multiples of five.
Page 124
Example of Creating a Filter with Dell Networking OS-Assigned Sequence Numbers The example shows a prefix list in which the sequence numbers were assigned by the software. The filters were assigned sequence numbers based on the order in which they were configured (for example, the first filter was given the lowest sequence number). The show config command in PREFIX LIST mode displays two filters with the sequence numbers 5 and 10.

Prerequisites Before configuring BFD for BGP, you must first configure the following settings: Configure BGP on the routers that you want to interconnect, as described in Border Gateway Protocol IPv4 (BGPv4). Enable fast fall-over for BGP neighbors to reduce convergence time (the neighbor fall-over command), as described in Fast Fall-Over.
Page 153
BFD notifies BGP of any failure conditions that it detects on the link. Recovery actions are initiated by BGP. BFD for BGP is supported only on directly-connected BGP neighbors and only in BGP IPv4 networks. Up to 128 simultaneous BFD sessions are supported As long as each BFD for BGP neighbor receives a BFD control packet within the configured BFD interval for failure detection, the BFD session remains up and BGP maintains its adjacencies.

Border Gateway Protocol IPv4 (BGPv4) This chapter provides a general description of BGPv4 as it is supported in the Dell Networking Operating System (OS). BGP protocol standards are listed in the Standards Compliance chapter. BGP is an external gateway protocol that transmits interdomain routing information within and between autonomous systems (AS). The primary function of the BGP is to exchange network reachability information with other BGP systems.
Page 164
IBGP provides routers inside the AS with the knowledge to reach routers external to the AS. EBGP routers exchange information with other EBGP routers as well as IBGP routers to maintain connectivity and accessibility. Figure 20. Internal BGP BGP version 4 (BGPv4) supports classless interdomain routing and aggregate routes and AS paths. BGP is a path vector protocol — a computer network in which BGP maintains the path that updated information takes as it diffuses through the network.
Figure 21. BGP Routers in Full Mesh The number of BGP speakers each BGP peer must maintain increases exponentially. Network management quickly becomes impossible. Sessions and Peers When two routers communicate using the BGP protocol, a BGP session is started. The two end-points of that session are Peers. A Peer is also called a Neighbor.
State Description Idle BGP initializes all resources, refuses all inbound BGP connection attempts, and initiates a TCP connection to the peer. Connect In this state the router waits for the TCP connection to complete, transitioning to the OpenSent state if successful. If that transition is not successful, BGP resets the ConnectRetry timer and transitions to the Active state when the timer expires.
Figure 22. BGP Router Rules Router B receives an advertisement from Router A through eBGP. Because the route is learned through eBGP, Router B advertises it to all its iBGP peers: Routers C and D. Router C receives the advertisement but does not advertise it to any peer because its only other peer is Router D, an iBGP peer, and Router D has already learned it through iBGP from Router B.

In non-deterministic mode (the bgp non-deterministic-med command is applied), paths are compared in the order in which they arrive. This method can lead to Dell Networking OS choosing different best paths from a set of paths, depending on the order in which they were received from the neighbors because MED may or may not get compared between the adjacent paths.

This method can lead to Dell Networking OS choosing different best paths from a set of paths, depending on the order in which they were received from the neighbors because MED may or may not get compared between the adjacent paths.
Figure 24. BGP Local Preference Multi-Exit Discriminators (MEDs) If two ASs connect in more than one place, a multi-exit discriminator (MED) can be used to assign a preference to a preferred path. MED is one of the criteria used to determine the best path, so keep in mind that other criteria may impact selection, as shown in the illustration in Best Path Selection Criteria.

BGP. Implement BGP with Dell Networking OS The following sections describe how to implement BGP on Dell Networking OS. Additional Path (Add-Path) Support The add-path feature reduces convergence times by advertising multiple paths to its peers for the same address prefix without replacing existing paths with new ones.
Configure 4-byte AS numbers with the four-octet-support command. AS4 Number Representation Dell Networking OS supports multiple representations of 4-byte AS numbers: asplain, asdot+, and asdot. NOTE: The ASDOT and ASDOT+ representations are supported only with the 4-Byte AS numbers feature. If 4-Byte AS numbers are not implemented, only ASPLAIN representation is supported.
Page 175
65526 and the AS number 65546 appears as 1.10. Dynamic AS Number Notation Application Dell Networking OS applies the ASN notation type change dynamically to the running-config statements. When you apply or change an notation, the type selected is reflected immediately in the running-configuration and the show commands (refer to the following two examples).
Dell(conf-router_bgp)#sho conf router bgp 100 neighbor 172.30.1.250 local-as 65057 Dell(conf-router_bgp)#do show ip bgp BGP table version is 28093, local router ID is 172.30.1.57 AS Number Migration With this feature you can transparently change the AS number of an entire BGP network and ensure that the routes are propagated throughout the network while the migration is in progress.
• To avoid SNMP timeouts with a large-scale configuration (large number of BGP neighbors and a large BGP Loc-RIB), Dell Networking recommends setting the timeout and retry count values to a relatively higher number. For example, t = 60 or r = 5.
To enable the BGP process and begin exchanging information, assign an AS number and use commands in ROUTER BGP mode to configure a BGP neighbor. By default, BGP is disabled. By default, Dell Networking OS compares the MED attribute on different paths from within the same AS (the bgp always-compare- med command is not enabled). NOTE: In Dell Networking OS, all newly configured neighbors and peer groups are disabled.
Disabled Enabling BGP By default, BGP is not enabled on the system. Dell Networking OS supports one autonomous system (AS) and assigns the AS number (ASN). To establish BGP sessions and route traffic, configure at least one BGP neighbor or peer.
Page 180
Disable 4-Byte support and return to the default 2-Byte format by using the no bgp four-octet-as-support command. You cannot disable 4-Byte support if you currently have a 4-Byte ASN configured. Disabling 4-Byte AS numbers also disables ASDOT and ASDOT+ number representation. All AS numbers are displayed in ASPLAIN format.
Page 181
Active For the router’s identifier, Dell Networking OS uses the highest IP address of the Loopback interfaces configured. Because Loopback interfaces are virtual, they cannot go down, thus preventing changes in the router ID. If you do not configure Loopback interfaces, the highest IP address of any interface is used as the router ID.

If you enable passive peering for the peer group, the software does not send an OPEN message, but it responds to an OPEN message. When a BGP neighbor connection with authentication configured is rejected by a passive peer-group, Dell Networking OS does not allow another passive peer-group on the same subnet to connect with the BGP neighbor.

By default, Dell Networking OS does not send the COMMUNITY attribute. To send the COMMUNITY attribute to BGP neighbors, use the following command.

By default, the software allows one path to a destination. You can enable multipath to allow up to 64 parallel paths to a destination. not using multipath and add path simultaneously in a route reflector. NOTE: Dell Networking recommends To allow more than one path, use the following command. The show ip bgp network command includes multipath information for that network.

You can create inbound and outbound policies. Each of the commands used for filtering has in and out parameters that you must apply. In Dell Networking OS, the order of preference varies depending on whether the attributes are applied for inbound updates or outbound updates.
• If none of the routes match any of the filters in the prefix list, the route is denied. This action is called an implicit deny. (If you want to forward all routes that do not match the prefix list criteria, you must configure a prefix list filter to permit all routes. For example, you could have the following filter as the last filter in your prefix list permit 0.0.0.0/0 le 32).
{ip-address | peer-group-name} route-reflector-client When you enable a route reflector, Dell Networking OS automatically enables route reflection to all clients. To disable route reflection between all clients in this reflector, use the no bgp client-to-client reflection command in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode.
EXEC Privilege mode. Aggregating Routes Dell Networking OS provides multiple ways to aggregate routes in the BGP routing table. At least one specific route of the aggregate must be in the routing table for the configured aggregate to become active.
(a numeric value) for routes that flap. When that penalty value reaches a configured limit, the route is not advertised, even if the route is up. In Dell Networking OS, that penalty value is 1024. As time passes and the route does not flap, the penalty value decrements or is decayed.
Page 207
By default, the path selection in Dell Networking OS is deterministic, that is, paths are compared irrespective of the order of their arrival. You can change the path selection method to non-deterministic, that is, paths are compared in the order in which they arrived (starting with the most recent).

Content Addressable Memory (CAM) CAM is a type of memory that stores information in the form of a lookup table. On Dell Networking systems, CAM stores Layer 2 (L2) and Layer 3 (L3) forwarding information, access-lists (ACLs), flows, and routing policies.
Page 222
To allocate the space for egress L2, IPV4, and IPV6 ACL, use the cam-acl-egress command. The total number of available FP blocks is 4. Allocate at least one group of L2ACL and IPV4 ACL. Dell(conf)#do show cam-acl-egress -- Chassis Egress Cam ACL --...

Control Plane Policing (CoPP) Control plane policing (CoPP) uses access control list (ACL) rules and quality of service (QoS) policies to create filters for a system’s control plane. That filter prevents traffic not specifically identified as legitimate from reaching the system control plane, rate-limits, traffic to an acceptable level.
Figure 29. CoPP Implemented Versus CoPP Not Implemented Configure Control Plane Policing The system can process a maximum of 8500 packets per second (PPS). Protocols that share a single queue may experience flaps if one of the protocols receives a high rate of control traffic even though per protocol CoPP is applied. This happens because queue-based rate limiting is applied first.
CoPP policies are configured by creating extended ACL rules and specifying rate-limits through QoS policies. The ACLs and QoS policies are assigned as service-policies. Configuring CoPP for Protocols This section lists the commands necessary to create and enable the service-policies for CoPP. For complete information about creating ACLs and QoS rules, refer to Access Control Lists (ACLs) Quality of Service...

Data Center Bridging (DCB) Data center bridging (DCB) refers to a set of enhancements to Ethernet local area networks used in data center environments, particularly with clustering and storage area networks. Topics: • Ethernet Enhancements in Data Center Bridging • Enabling Data Center Bridging •...
DCB-enabled network is required in a data center. The Dell Networking switches that support a unified fabric and consolidate multiple network infrastructures use a single input/output (I/O) device called a converged network adapter (CNA). A CNA is a computer input/output device that combines the functionality of a host bus adapter (HBA) with a network interface controller (NIC).
• iSCSI storage traffic with priority 4. In the Dell Networking OS, PFC is implemented as follows: • PFC is supported on specified 802.1p priority traffic (dot1p 0 to 7) and is configured per interface. However, only lossless queues are supported on an interface: one for Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) converged traffic and one for Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) storage traffic.
Percentage of available bandwidth allocated to a priority group. Group transmission selection algorithm (TSA) Type of queue scheduling a priority group uses. In Dell Networking OS, ETS is implemented as follows: • ETS supports groups of 802.1p priorities that have: •...
To enable DCB, enable either the iSCSI optimization configuration or the FCoE configuration. NOTE: Dell Networking OS Behavior: DCB is not supported if you enable link-level flow control on one or more interfaces. For more information, refer to Ethernet Pause Frames.
DCB Maps and its Attributes This topic contains the following sections that describe how to configure a DCB map, apply the configured DCB map to a port, configure PFC without a DCB map, and configure lossless queues. DCB Map: Configuration Procedure A DCB map consists of PFC and ETS parameters.
5, 6, and 7. Dell Networking OS Behavior: As soon as you apply a DCB policy with PFC enabled on an interface, DCBx starts exchanging information with PFC-enabled peers. The IEEE802.1Qbb, CEE, and CIN versions of PFC Type, Length, Value (TLV) are supported. DCBx also validates PFC configurations that are received in TLVs from peer devices.
NOTE: You cannot enable PFC and link-level flow control at the same time on an interface. Configuring Lossless Queues DCB also supports the manual configuration of lossless queues on an interface when PFC mode is turned off. Prerequisite: A DCB with PFC configuration is applied to the interface with the following conditions: •...
NOTE: Dell Networking OS Behavior: By default, no lossless queues are configured on a port. A limit of two lossless queues is supported on a port. If the amount of priority traffic that you configure to be paused exceeds the two lossless queues, an error message displays.
In a switch stack, configure all stacked ports with the same PFC configuration. • Dell Networking OS allows you to change the default dot1p priority-queue assignments only if the change satisfies the following requirements in DCB maps already applied to the interfaces: •...
Step Task Command Command Mode Dell# interface tengigabitEthernet 1/1/1 Dell(config-if-te-1/1/1)# dcb-map SAN_A_dcb_map1 Repeat Steps 1 and 2 to apply a DCB map to more than one port. You cannot apply a DCB map on an interface that has been already configured for PFC using thepfc priority command or which is already configured for lossless queues (pfc no-drop queues command).
When a device sends a pause frame to another device, the time for which the sending of packets from the other device must be stopped is contained in the pause frame. The device that sent the pause frame empties the buffer to be less than the threshold value and restarts the acceptance of data packets.
Bits Priority based Flow Control (PFC) is currently supported on Dell Networking OS for tagged packets based on the packet Dot1p. In certain data center deployments, VLAN configuration is avoided on the servers and all packets from the servers are untagged. These packets will carry IP header and can be differentiated based on the DSCP fields they carry on the server facing switch ports.
Dell Networking OS Releases 9.3(0.0) and earlier provide CLI support to specify the priorities for which PFC is enabled on each port. This feature is applicable only for the tagged packets based on the incoming packet Dot1p and Dot1p based queue classification. This document will discuss the configurations required to support PFC for untagged packets based on incoming packet DSCP.
Apply PFC Priority configuration. Configure priorities on which PFC is enabled. Using PFC to Manage Converged Ethernet Traffic To use PFC for managing converged Ethernet traffic, use the following command: dcb-map stack-unit all dcb-map-name Generation of PFC for a Priority for Untagged Packets In order to generate PFC for a particular priority for untagged packets, and configuring PFC for that priority, you should find the queue number associated with priority from TABLE 1 and Associate a DCB map to forward the matched DSCP packet to that queue.
5, 6, and 7. Dell Networking OS Behavior: A priority group consists of 802.1p priority values that are grouped for similar bandwidth allocation and scheduling, and that share latency and loss requirements. All 802.1p priorities mapped to the same queue must be in the same priority group.
• Dell Networking OS supports hierarchical scheduling on an interface. The control traffic on Dell Networking OS is redirected to control queues as higher priority traffic with strict priority scheduling. After the control queues drain out, the remaining data traffic is scheduled to queues according to the bandwidth and scheduler configuration in the DCB map.
you can apply a QoS output policy with WRED and/or rate shaping on a DCBx CIN-enabled interface. In this case, the WRED or rate shaping configuration in the QoS output policy must take into account the bandwidth allocation or queue scheduler configured in the DCB map.
Applying DCB Policies in a Switch Stack You can apply DCB policies with PFC and ETS configurations to all stacked ports in a switch stack or on a stacked switch. To apply DCB policies in a switch stack, follow this step. •...
Page 254
On a DCBx port in a manual role, all PFC, application priority, ETS recommend, and ETS configuration TLVs are enabled. When making a configuration change to a DCBx port in a Manual role, Dell Networking recommends shutting down the interface using the shutdown command, change the configuration, then re-activate the interface using the no shutdown command.
NOTE: On a DCBx port, application priority TLV advertisements are handled as follows: • The application priority TLV is transmitted only if the priorities in the advertisement match the configured PFC priorities on the port. • On auto-upstream and auto-downstream ports: •...
Propagation of DCB Information When an auto-upstream or auto-downstream port receives a DCB configuration from a peer, the port acts as a DCBx client and checks if a DCBx configuration source exists on the switch. • If a configuration source is found, the received configuration is checked against the currently configured values that are internally propagated by the configuration source.
Figure 33. DCBx Sample Topology DCBx Prerequisites and Restrictions The following prerequisites and restrictions apply when you configure DCBx operation on a port: • For DCBx, on a port interface, enable LLDP in both Send (TX) and Receive (RX) mode (the protocol lldp mode command; refer to the example in in the chapter).

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) DHCP is an application layer protocol that dynamically assigns IP addresses and other configuration parameters to network end-stations (hosts) based on configuration policies determined by network administrators. DHCP relieves network administrators of manually configuring hosts, which can be a tedious and error-prone process when hosts often join, leave, and change locations on the network and it reclaims IP addresses that are no longer in use to prevent address exhaustion.
Page 273
The following table lists common DHCP options. Option Number and Description Subnet Mask Option 1 Specifies the client’s subnet mask. Router Option 3 Specifies the router IP addresses that may serve as the client’s default gateway. Domain Name Option 6 Server Specifies the domain name servers (DNSs) that are available to the client.
Option Number and Description User Port Stacking Option 230 Set the stacking option variable to provide DHCP server stack-port detail when the DHCP offer is set. Option 255 Signals the last option in the DHCP packet. Assign an IP Address using DHCP The following section describes DHCP and the client in a network.
ACLs to an interface which has IP source address validation. If you configure IP source address validation on a member port of a virtual local area network (VLAN) and then to apply an access list to the VLAN, Dell Networking OS displays the first line in the following message.
After an IP address is leased to a client, only that client may release the address. Dell Networking OS performs a IP + MAC source address validation to ensure that no client can release another clients address. This validation is a default behavior and is separate from IP+MAC source address validation.
DHCP <POOL> default-router address Configure a Method of Hostname Resolution Dell systems are capable of providing DHCP clients with parameters for two methods of hostname resolution—using DNS or NetBIOS WINS. Using DNS for Address Resolution A domain is a group of networks. DHCP clients query DNS IP servers when they need to correlate host names to IP addresses.

Use the no ip address dhcp command to: • Release the IP address dynamically acquired from a DHCP server from the interface. • Disable the DHCP client on the interface so it cannot acquire a dynamic IP address from a DHCP server. •...
DHCP Client Operation with Other Features The DHCP client operates with other Dell Networking OS features, as the following describes. Stacking The DHCP client daemon runs only on the master unit and handles all DHCP packet transactions. It periodically synchronizes the lease file with the standby unit.
DHCP Snooping A DHCP client can run on a switch simultaneously with the DHCP snooping feature as follows: • If you enable DHCP snooping globally on a switch and you enable a DHCP client on an interface, the trust port, source MAC address, and snooping table validations are not performed on the interface by DHCP snooping for packets destined to the DHCP client daemon.
• Source Address Validation Option 82 RFC 3046 (the relay agent information option, or Option 82) is used for class-based IP address assignment. The code for the relay agent information option is 82, and is comprised of two sub-options, circuit ID and remote ID. Circuit ID This is the interface on which the client-originated message is received.
DHCP snooping is supported on Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic. DHCP snooping on Layer 2 interfaces does require a relay agent. Binding table entries are deleted when a lease expires or when the relay agent encounters a DHCPRELEASE. Line cards maintain a list of snooped VLANs.

Dell Networking OS releases earlier than Release 9.3(0.1) stores IPv6 /128 entries in Host table since it cannot be written in LPM table, and IPv4 0/32 route entries are written in LPM table itself to support the ECMP since ECMP was not supported in Host table.

Polarization Multipath routing is a method that is often used to address data forwarding issues during network failures so that the network traffic reaches its desired destination. Multipath routing in IP networks is typically implemented using Equal-Cost Multipath (ECMP) routing, which employs load balancing algorithms to distribute the traffic over multiple paths towards its destination.

FIP Snooping The Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) Transit feature is supported on Ethernet interfaces. When you enable the switch for FCoE transit, the switch functions as a FIP snooping bridge. NOTE: FIP snooping is not supported on Fibre Channel interfaces or in a switch stack. Topics: •...

FIP provides functionality for discovering and logging into an FCF. After discovering and logging in, FIP allows FCoE traffic to be sent and received between FCoE end-devices (ENodes) and the FCF. FIP uses its own EtherType and frame format. The following illustration shows the communication that occurs between an ENode server and an FCoE switch (FCF).
FIP Snooping on Ethernet Bridges In a converged Ethernet network, intermediate Ethernet bridges can snoop on FIP packets during the login process on an FCF. Then, using ACLs, a transit bridge can permit only authorized FCoE traffic to be transmitted between an FCoE end-device and an FCF. An Ethernet bridge that provides these functions is called a FIP snooping bridge (FSB).
Page 303
Figure 40. FIP Snooping on a Dell Networking Switch The following sections describe how to configure the FIP snooping feature on a switch: • Allocate CAM resources for FCoE. • Perform FIP snooping (allowing and parsing FIP frames) globally on all VLANs or on a per-VLAN basis.
Example. Statistical information is available for FIP Snooping-related information. For available commands, refer to the FCoE Transit chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide. FIP Snooping Prerequisites Before you enable FCoE transit and configure FIP snooping on a switch, ensure that certain conditions are met.
You must apply the CAM-ACL space for the FCoE region before enabling the FIP-Snooping feature. If you do not apply CAM-ACL space, the following error message is displayed: Dell(conf)#feature fip-snooping % Error: Cannot enable fip snooping. CAM Region not allocated for Fcoe.
configurations are synchronized. By default, all FCoE and FIP frames are dropped unless specifically permitted by existing FIP snooping- generated ACLs. You can reconfigure any of the FIP snooping settings. If you disable FCoE transit, FIP and FCoE traffic are handled as normal Ethernet frames and no FIP snooping ACLs are generated. The VLAN-specific and FIP snooping configuration is disabled and stored until you re-enable FCoE transit and the configurations are re-applied.
Impact on Other Software Features When you enable FIP snooping on a switch, other software features are impacted. The following table lists the impact of FIP snooping. Table 25.

Delayed Installation of ECMP Routes Into BGP The current FIB component of Dell Networking OS has some inherent inefficiencies when handling a large number of ECMP routes (i.e., routes with multiple equal-cost next hops). To circumvent this for the configuration of fast boot, changes are made in BGP to delay the installation of ECMP routes.
enabled, the packets comprise TCP and UDP packets and they can be marked with DSCP code points. Multicast is not supported in that network. RRoCE packets are received and transmitted on specific interfaces called lite-subinterfaces. These interfaces are similar to the normal Layer 3 physical interfaces except for the extra provisioning that they offer to enable the VLAN ID for encapsulation.
Force10 Resilient Ring Protocol (FRRP) FRRP provides fast network convergence to Layer 2 switches interconnected in a ring topology, such as a metropolitan area network (MAN) or large campuses. FRRP is similar to what can be achieved with the spanning tree protocol (STP), though even with optimizations, STP can take up to 50 seconds to converge (depending on the size of network and node of failure) and may require 4 to 5 seconds to reconverge.
Ring Status The ring failure notification and the ring status checks provide two ways to ensure the ring remains up and active in the event of a switch or port failure. Ring Checking At specified intervals, the Master node sends a ring health frame (RHF) through the ring. If the ring is complete, the frame is received on its secondary port and the Master node resets its fail-period timer and continues normal operation.
In the following example, FRRP 101 is a ring with its own Control VLAN, and FRRP 202 has its own Control VLAN running on another ring. A Member VLAN that spans both rings is added as a Member VLAN to both FRRP groups. Switch R3 has two instances of FRRP running on it: one for each ring.

Configure GVRP To begin, enable GVRP. To facilitate GVRP communications, enable GVRP globally on each switch. Then, GVRP configuration is per interface on a switch-by-switch basis. Enable GVRP on each port that connects to a switch where you want GVRP information exchanged. In the following example, GVRP is configured on VLAN trunk ports.
To configure GVRP globally, use the following command. • Enable GVRP for the entire switch.

GARP devices can re-register all relevant attribute information. The device then restarts the LeaveAll timer to begin a new cycle. The LeaveAll timer must be greater than or equal to 5x of the Leave timer. The Dell Networking OS default is 10000ms.
IGMP Implementation Information • Dell Networking Operating System (OS) supports IGMP versions 1, 2, and 3 based on RFCs 1112, 2236, and 3376, respectively. • Dell Networking OS does not support IGMP version 3 and versions 1 or 2 on the same subnet.
leaves a multicast group by sending an IGMP message to its IGMP Querier. The querier is the router that surveys a subnet for multicast receivers and processes survey responses to populate the multicast routing table. IGMP messages are encapsulated in IP packets, as shown in the following illustration. Figure 44.
Any remaining hosts respond to the query according to the delay timer mechanism (refer to Adjusting Query and Response Timers). If no hosts respond (because there are none remaining in the group), the querier waits a specified period and sends another query. If it still receives no response, the querier removes the group from the list associated with forwarding port and stops forwarding traffic for that group to the subnet.

Figure 46. IGMP Version 3–Capable Multicast Routers Address Structure Joining and Filtering Groups and Sources The following illustration shows how multicast routers maintain the group and source information from unsolicited reports. The first unsolicited report from the host indicates that it wants to receive traffic for group 224.1.1.1. The host’s second report indicates that it is only interested in traffic from group 224.1.1.1, source 10.11.1.1.

Fast Convergence after MSTP Topology Changes When a port transitions to the Forwarding state as a result of an STP or MSTP topology change, Dell Networking OS sends a general query out of all ports except the multicast router ports. The host sends a response to the general query and the forwarding database is updated without having to wait for the query interval to expire.
Egress Interface Selection (EIS) for HTTP and IGMP Applications You can use the Egress Interface Selection (EIS) feature to isolate the management and front-end port domains for HTTP and IGMP traffic. Also, EIS enables you to configure the responses to switch-destined traffic by using the management port IP address as the source IP address.

• For management applications, route lookup is preferentially done in the management EIS routing table for all traffic. management port is the preferred egress port. For example, if SSH is a management application, an SSH session to a front-panel port IP on the peer box is initiated via management port only, if the management port is UP and management route is available.
• To ensure that protocol separation is done only for switch initiated traffic where the application acts as client, only the destination TCP/UDP port is compared and not the source TCP/UDP port. The source TCP/UDP port becomes a known port number when the box acts as server.
EIS routing table fails, ip2 is the source IP and the front-panel port is used to reach the destination. The fallback route between the management and data networks is used in such a case. At any given time, end users can access Dell Networking OS applications using either ip1 or ip2.
This phenomenon occurs where traffic is transiting the switch. Traffic has not originated from the switch and is not terminating on the switch. • Drop the packets that are received on the front-end data port with destination on the management port. •...

You cannot simultaneously use egress rate shaping and ingress rate policing on the same VLAN. Dell Networking OS supports Inter-VLAN routing (Layer 3 routing in VLANs). You can add IP addresses to VLANs and use them in routing protocols in the same manner that physical interfaces are used. For more information about configuring different routing protocols, refer to the chapters on the specific protocol.
Loopback Interfaces A Loopback interface is a virtual interface in which the software emulates an interface. Packets routed to it are processed locally. Because this interface is not a physical interface, you can configure routing protocols on this interface to provide protocol stability. You can place Loopback interfaces in default Layer 3 mode.
(LAG) or port channel. A LAG is “a group of links that appear to a MAC client as if they were a single link” according to IEEE 802.3ad. In Dell Networking OS, a LAG is referred to as a port channel interface.
Port channels can contain a mix of 1G/10G/25G/40G/50G/100G. The interface speed that the port channel uses is determined by the first port channel member that is physically up. Dell Networking OS disables the interfaces that do not match the interface speed that the first channel member sets.
The physical interfaces in a port channel can be on any line card in the chassis, but must be the same physical type. NOTE: Port channels can contain a mix of Ethernet interfaces, but Dell Networking OS disables the interfaces that are not the same speed of the first channel member in the port channel (refer to 10/100/1000 Mbps Interfaces in Port Channels).
Dell> When more than one interface is added to a Layer 2-port channel, Dell Networking OS selects one of the active interfaces in the port channel to be the primary port. The primary port replies to flooding and sends protocol data units (PDUs). An asterisk in the show interfaces port-channel brief command indicates the primary port.

The link MTU is the frame size of a packet, and the IP MTU size is used for IP fragmentation. If the system determines that the IP packet must be fragmented as it leaves the interface, Dell Networking OS divides the packet into fragments no bigger than the size set in the ip mtu command.
Using Ethernet Pause Frames for Flow Control Ethernet pause frames and threshold settings are supported on the Dell Networking OS. Ethernet Pause Frames allow for a temporary stop in data transmission. A situation may arise where a sending device may transmit data faster than a destination device can accept it.

NOTE: Even though Dell Networking OS listens to all ports, you can only use the ports starting from 35001 for IPv4 traffic. Ports starting from 0 to 35000 are reserved for internal use and you cannot use them for IPv4 traffic.
Example the show config Command To view the configuration, use the show config command in INTERFACE mode or use the show ip interface command in EXEC privilege mode, as shown in the second example. Dell(conf-if)#show conf interface TenGigabitEthernet 1/1/1/1 ip address 10.11.1.1/24...
Dell Networking OS installs a next hop that is on the directly connected subnet of current IP address on the interface. Dell Networking OS also installs a next hop that is not on the directly connected subnet but which recursively resolves to a next hop on the interface's configured subnet.
Define the wait duration in seconds for the TCP connection to be established. CONFIGURATION mode Dell(conf)#ip tcp reduced-syn-ack-wait <9-75> You can use the no ip tcp reduced-syn-ack-wait command to restore the default behavior, which causes the wait period to be set as 8 seconds.
Dell>show ip tcp reduced-syn-ack-wait Enabling Directed Broadcast By default, Dell Networking OS drops directed broadcast packets destined for an interface. This default setting provides some protection against denial of service (DoS) attacks. To enable Dell Networking OS to receive directed broadcasts, use the following command.
If you enter a partial domain, Dell Networking OS can search different domains to finish or fully qualify that partial domain. A fully qualified domain name (FQDN) is any name that is terminated with a period/dot. Dell Networking OS searches the host table first to resolve the partial domain.
For more information about ARP, refer to RFC 826, An Ethernet Address Resolution Protocol. In Dell Networking OS, Proxy ARP enables hosts with knowledge of the network to accept and forward packets from hosts that contain no knowledge of the network. Proxy ARP makes it possible for hosts to be ignorant of the network, including subnetting.
Gratuitous ARP can mean an ARP request or reply. In the context of ARP learning via gratuitous ARP on Dell Networking OS, the gratuitous ARP is a request. A gratuitous ARP request is an ARP request that is not needed according to the ARP specification, but one that hosts may send to: •...
ARP Learning via ARP Request In Dell Networking OS versions prior to 8.3.1.0, Dell Networking OS learns via ARP requests only if the target IP specified in the packet matches the IP address of the receiving router interface. This is the case when a host is attempting to resolve the gateway address.
The following lists the configuration tasks for ICMP. • Enabling ICMP Unreachable Messages For a complete listing of all commands related to ICMP, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide. Enabling ICMP Unreachable Messages By default, ICMP unreachable messages are disabled.
IP address of packets to match those addresses. Configure UDP Helper To configure Dell Networking OS to direct UDP broadcast, enable UDP helper and specify the UDP ports for which traffic is forwarded. See Enabling UDP Helper Important Points to Remember •...
UDP Helper with No Configured Broadcast Addresses UDP Helper with Broadcast-All Addresses When the destination IP address of an incoming packet is the IP broadcast address, Dell Networking OS rewrites the address to match the configured broadcast address. In the following illustration: Packet 1 is dropped at ingress if you did not configure UDP helper address.
Figure 51. UDP Helper with Broadcast-All Addresses UDP Helper with Subnet Broadcast Addresses When the destination IP address of an incoming packet matches the subnet broadcast address of any interface, the system changes the address to the configured broadcast address and sends it to matching interface. In the following illustration, Packet 1 has the destination IP address 1.1.1.255, which matches the subnet broadcast address of VLAN 101.
To display debugging information for troubleshooting, use the debug ip udp-helper command. Example of the debug ip udp-helper Command Dell(conf)# debug ip udp-helper 01:20:22: Pkt rcvd on Te 5/1/1 with IP DA (0xffffffff) will be sent on Te 5/1/2 Te 5/1/3 Vlan 3 01:44:54: Pkt rcvd on Te 7/1/1 is handed over for DHCP processing.
IPv6 will eventually replace IPv4 usage to allow for the constant expansion. This chapter provides a brief description of the differences between IPv4 and IPv6, and the Dell Networking support of IPv6. This chapter is not intended to be a comprehensive description of IPv6.
Router Solicitations (RS). By default, RA response messages are sent when an RS message is received. Dell Networking OS manipulation of IPv6 stateless autoconfiguration supports the router side only. Neighbor discovery (ND) messages are advertised so the neighbor can use this information to auto-configure its address. However, received ND messages are not used to create an IPv6 address.
A command has been introduced to partition the LPM to support provisioning of IPv6 /65 to /128 route prefixes. To support /65 – /128 IPv6 route prefix entries, Dell Networking OS needs to be programmed with /65 - /128 bit IPv6 support. The number of entries as well needs to be explicitly programmed.
The platforms uses only IPv6 /0 – 0/64 prefix route entries. Support for /0 – /128 IPv6 prefix route entries is available, although they are not utilized. A total of eight pools or regions are present with each region containing 1024 210-bit entries (supports up to 0/64 prefix). To support up to /128 prefixes, you must use 2 banks (410-bit entries).
Page 415
Next Header (8 bits) The Next Header field identifies the next header’s type. If an Extension header is used, this field contains the type of Extension header (as shown in the following table). If the next header is a transmission control protocol (TCP) or user datagram protocol (UDP) header, the value in this field is the same as for IPv4.
Source Address (128 bits) The Source Address field contains the IPv6 address for the packet originator. Destination Address (128 bits) The Destination Address field contains the intended recipient’s IPv6 address. This can be either the ultimate destination or the address of the next hop router.
Discard the packet and send an ICMP Parameter Problem Code 2 message to the packet’s Source IP Address identifying the unknown option type. Discard the packet and send an ICMP Parameter Problem, Code 2 message to the packet’s Source IP Address only if the Destination IP Address is not a multicast address.
ICMP for IPv6 combines the roles of ICMP, IGMP and ARP in IPv4. Like IPv4, it provides functions for reporting delivery and forwarding errors, and provides a simple echo service for troubleshooting. The Dell Networking OS implementation of ICMPv6 is based on RFC 4443.
NOTE: To avoid problems with network discovery, Dell Networking recommends configuring the static route last or assigning an IPv6 address to the interface and assigning an address to the peer (the forwarding router’s address) less than 10 seconds apart.

Configuration Tasks for IPv6 The following are configuration tasks for the IPv6 protocol. • Adjusting Your CAM-Profile • Assigning an IPv6 Address to an Interface • Assigning a Static IPv6 Route • Configuring Telnet with IPv6 • SNMP over IPv6 •...
Assigning an IPv6 Address to an Interface Essentially, IPv6 is enabled in Dell Networking OS simply by assigning IPv6 addresses to individual router interfaces. You can use IPv6 and IPv4 together on a system, but be sure to differentiate that usage carefully. To assign an IPv6 address to an interface, use the ipv6 address command.
Configuring Telnet with IPv6 The Telnet client and server in Dell Networking OS supports IPv6 connections. You can establish a Telnet session directly to the router using an IPv6 Telnet client, or you can initiate an IPv6 Telnet connection from the router.

In a data center network, Dell EqualLogic and Compellent iSCSI storage arrays are connected to a converged Ethernet network using the data center bridging exchange protocol (DCBx) through stacked and/or non-stacked Ethernet switches.
Page 432
• iSCSI QoS — A user-configured iSCSI class of service (CoS) profile is applied to all iSCSI traffic. Classifier rules are used to direct the iSCSI data traffic to queues that can be given preferential QoS treatment over other data passing through the switch. Preferential treatment helps to avoid session interruptions during times of congestion that would otherwise cause dropped iSCSI packets.
QoS dot1p-priority command (refer to QoS dot1p Traffic Classification and Queue Assignment). Dell Networking recommends setting the CoS dot1p priority-queue to 0 (zero). You can configure whether iSCSI frames are re-marked to contain the configured VLAN priority tag or IP DSCP when forwarded through the switch.
The switch uses the link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) to discover Dell EqualLogic devices on the network. LLDP is enabled by default. For more information about LLDP, refer to Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP).
• Unicast storm control is disabled on the interface. Enter the iscsi profile-compellent command in INTERFACE Configuration mode; for example: Dell(conf-if-te-o/50# iscsi profile-compellent Synchronizing iSCSI Sessions Learned on VLT-Lags with VLT- Peer The following behavior occurs during synchronization of iSCSI sessions.

Intermediate System to Intermediate System The intermediate system to intermediate system (IS-IS) protocol that uses a shortest-path-first algorithm. Dell Networking supports both IPv4 and IPv6 versions of IS-IS. Topics: • IS-IS Protocol Overview • IS-IS Addressing • Multi-Topology IS-IS •...
• area address — within your routing domain or area, each area must have a unique area value. The first byte is called the authority and format indicator (AFI). • system address — the router’s MAC address. • N-selector — this is always 0. The following illustration is an example of the ISO-style address to show the address format IS-IS uses.
Interface Support MT IS-IS is supported on physical Ethernet interfaces, physical synchronous optical network technologies (SONET) interfaces, port- channel interfaces (static and dynamic using LACP), and virtual local area network (VLAN) interfaces. Adjacencies Adjacencies on point-to-point interfaces are formed as usual, where IS-IS routers do not implement MT extensions. If a local router does not participate in certain MTs, it does not advertise those MT IDs in its IS-IS hellos (IIHs) and so does not include that neighbor within its LSPs.
By default, Dell Networking OS supports dynamic host name exchange to assist with troubleshooting and configuration. By assigning a name to an IS-IS NET address, you can track IS-IS information on that address easier. Dell Networking OS does not support ISO CLNS routing;...
Configuration Tasks for IS-IS The following describes the configuration tasks for IS-IS. • Enabling IS-IS • Configure Multi-Topology IS-IS (MT IS-IS) • Configuring IS-IS Graceful Restart • Changing LSP Attributes • Configuring the IS-IS Metric Style • Configuring IS-IS Cost •...

Use this command for IPv6 route computation only when you enable multi-topology. If using single-topology mode, to apply to both IPv4 and IPv6 route computations, use the spf-interval command in CONFIG ROUTER ISIS mode. Implement a wide metric-style globally. ROUTER ISIS AF IPV6 mode isis ipv6 metric metric-value [level-1 | level-2 | level-1-2] To configure wide or wide transition metric style, the cost can be between 0 and 16,777,215.

If you configure narrow, transition, or narrow transition metric style, the cost can be a number between 0 and 63. If you configure wide or wide transition metric style, the cost can be a number between 0 and 16,777,215. Dell Networking OS supports five different metric styles: narrow, wide, transition, narrow transition, and wide transition.
Accept wide metrics: none Dell# Configuring the IS-IS Cost When you change from one IS-IS metric style to another, the IS-IS metric value could be affected. For each interface with IS-IS enabled, you can assign a cost or metric that is used in the link state calculation.
The default is Level 1-2 router. When the IS-type is Level 1-2, the software maintains two Link State databases, one for each level. To view the Link State databases, use the show isis database command. Dell#show isis database IS-IS Level-1 Link State Database...
Page 453
Another method of controlling routing information is to filter the information through a prefix list. Prefix lists are applied to incoming or outgoing routes and routes must meet the conditions of the prefix lists or Dell Networking OS does not install the route in the routing table. The prefix lists are globally applied on all interfaces running IS-IS.
Applying IPv6 Routes To apply prefix lists to incoming or outgoing IPv6 routes, use the following commands. NOTE: These commands apply to IPv6 IS-IS only. To apply prefix lists to IPv4 routes, use ROUTER ISIS mode, previously shown. • Apply a configured prefix list to all incoming IPv6 IS-IS routes. ROUTER ISIS-AF IPV6 mode distribute-list prefix-list-name in [interface] Enter the type of interface and the interface information:...
Another use for the overload bit is to prevent other routers from using this router as an intermediate hop in their shortest path first (SPF) calculations. For example, if the IS-IS routing database is out of memory and cannot accept new LSPs, Dell Networking OS sets the overload bit and IS-IS traffic continues to transit the system.
When the bit is set, a 1 is placed in the OL column in the show isis database command output. The overload bit is set in both the Level-1 and Level-2 database because the IS type for the router is Level-1-2. Dell#show isis database IS-IS Level-1 Link State Database...
Enter the type of interface and slot/port information to view IS-IS information on that interface only. Dell Networking OS displays debug messages on the console. To view which debugging commands are enabled, use the show debugging command in EXEC Privilege mode.
Maximum Values in the Routing Table IS-IS metric styles support different cost ranges for the route. The cost range for the narrow metric style is 0 to 1023, while all other metric styles support a range of 0 to 0xFE000000. Change the IS-IS Metric Style in One Level Only By default, the IS-IS metric style is narrow.

Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) A link aggregation group (LAG), referred to as a port channel by the Dell Networking OS, can provide both load-sharing and port redundancy across line cards. You can enable LAGs as static or dynamic. Introduction to Dynamic LAGs and LACP A link aggregation group (LAG), referred to as a port channel by Dell Networking OS, can provide both load-sharing and port redundancy across line cards.
LACP Modes Dell Networking OS provides three modes for configuration of LACP — Off, Active, and Passive. • Off — In this state, an interface is not capable of being part of a dynamic LAG. LACP does not run on any port that is configured to be in this state.
Configure the dynamic LAG interfaces.

Figure 60. Shared LAG State Tracking To avoid packet loss, redirect traffic through the next lowest-cost link (R3 to R4). Dell Networking OS has the ability to bring LAG 2 down if LAG 1 fails, so that traffic can be redirected. This redirection is what is meant by shared LAG state tracking. To achieve this functionality, you must group LAG 1 and LAG 2 into a single entity, called a failover group.
Page 469
Example of LAGs in the Same Failover Group Dell#config Dell(conf)#port-channel failover-group Dell(conf-po-failover-grp)#group 1 port-channel 1 port-channel 2 To view the failover group configuration, use the show running-configuration po-failover-group command.

Setting Station Move Violation Actions no-station-move is the default behavior. You can configure the system to take an action if a station move occurs using one the following options with the mac learning-limit command. To display a list of interfaces configured with MAC learning limit or station move violation actions, use the following commands. •...

Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) This chapter describes how to configure and use the link layer discovery protocol (LLDP). 802.1AB (LLDP) Overview LLDP — defined by IEEE 802.1AB — is a protocol that enables a local area network (LAN) device to advertise its configuration and receive configuration information from adjacent LLDP-enabled LAN infrastructure devices.
Organizationally Specific TLVs. Figure 74. LLDPDU Frame Optional TLVs The Dell Networking OS supports these optional TLVs: management TLVs, IEEE 802.1 and 802.3 organizationally specific TLVs, and TIA-1057 organizationally specific TLVs. Management TLVs A management TLV is an optional TLVs sub-type. This kind of TLV contains essential management information about the sender.
Page 495
Eight TLV types have been defined by the IEEE 802.1 and 802.3 working groups as a basic part of LLDP; the IEEE OUI is 00-80-C2. You can configure the Dell Networking system to advertise any or all of these TLVs.
• LLDP-MED Network Connectivity Device — any device that provides access to an IEEE 802 LAN to an LLDP-MED endpoint device and supports IEEE 802.1AB (LLDP) and TIA-1057 (LLDP-MED). The Dell Networking system is an LLDP-MED network connectivity device. Regarding connected endpoint devices, LLDP-MED provides network connectivity devices with the ability to: •...
Page 497
The value of the LLDP-MED capabilities field in the TLV is a 2–octet bitmap, each bit represents an LLDP-MED capability (as shown in the following table). • The possible values of the LLDP-MED device type are shown in the following. The Dell Networking system is a network connectivity device, which is Type 4. Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)

Advertise the extended power via MDI on all ports that are connected to an 802.3af powered, LLDP-MED endpoint device. • Power Type — there are two possible power types: power source entity (PSE) or power device (PD). The Dell Networking system is a PSE, which corresponds to a value of 0, based on the TIA-1057 specification.
• Power Value — Dell Networking advertises the maximum amount of power that can be supplied on the port. By default the power is 15.4W, which corresponds to a power value of 130, based on the TIA-1057 specification. You can advertise a different power value using the max-milliwatts option with the power inline auto | static command.

Microsoft Network Load Balancing Network load balancing (NLB) is a clustering functionality that is implemented by Microsoft on Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003 operating systems (OSs). NLB uses a distributed methodology or pattern to equally split and balance the network traffic load across a set of servers that are part of the cluster or group.
ARP request is sent to a server cluster, either the active server or all the servers send a reply, depending on the cluster configuration. If the active server sends a reply, the Dell switch learns the active server’s MAC address. If all servers reply, the switch registers only the last received ARP reply and the switch learns one server’s actual MAC address;...

Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP) Multicast source discovery protocol (MSDP) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Protocol Overview MSDP is a Layer 3 protocol that connects IPv4 protocol-independent multicast-sparse mode (PIM-SM) domains. A domain in the context of MSDP is a contiguous set of routers operating PIM within a common boundary defined by an exterior gateway protocol, such as border gateway protocol (BGP).
RPs advertise each (S,G) in its domain in type, length, value (TLV) format. The total number of TLVs contained in the SA is indicated in the “Entry Count” field. SA messages are transmitted every 60 seconds, and immediately when a new source is detected. Figure 82.
New sources register with the backup RP. Receivers join toward the new RP and connectivity is maintained. Implementation Information The Dell Networking OS implementation of MSDP is in accordance with RFC 3618 and Anycast RP is in accordance with RFC 3446. Configure Multicast Source Discovery Protocol Configuring MSDP is a four-step process.
Limiting the Source-Active Cache Set the upper limit of the number of active sources that the Dell Networking OS caches. The default active source limit is 500K messages. When the total number of active sources reaches the specified limit, subsequent active sources are dropped even if they pass the reverse path forwarding (RPF) and policy check.
If the total number of active sources is already larger than the limit when limiting is applied, the sources that are already in Dell Networking OS are not discarded. To enforce the limit in such a situation, use the clear ip msdp sa-cache command to clear all existing entries.
If you do not specify an access list, the peer accepts all sources that peer advertises. All sources from RPs that the ACL denies are subject to the normal RPF check.

Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) Multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP) — specified in IEEE 802.1Q-2003 — is a rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP)-based spanning tree variation that improves per-VLAN spanning tree plus (PVST+). MSTP allows multiple spanning tree instances and allows you to map many VLANs to one spanning tree instance to reduce the total number of required instances.
Implementation Information MSTP is implemented as follows in Dell Networking OS: • The Dell Networking OS MSTP implementation is based on IEEE 802.1Q-2003 and interoperates only with bridges that also use this standard implementation. • MSTP is compatible with STP and RSTP.
• Creating Multiple Spanning Tree Instances • Adding and Removing Interfaces • Influencing MSTP Root Selection • Interoperate with Non-Dell Networking OS Bridges • Changing the Region Name or Revision • Modifying Global Parameters • Modifying the Interface Parameters •...
All bridges in the MSTP region must have the same VLAN-to-instance mapping. To view which instance a VLAN is mapped to, use the show spanning-tree mst vlan command from EXEC Privilege mode. Dell(conf-mstp)#name my-mstp-region Dell(conf-mstp)#exit Dell(conf)#do show spanning-tree mst config MST region name: my-mstp-region Revision: 0 MSTI VID...
For a bridge to be in the same MSTP region as another, all three of these qualities must match exactly. The default values for the name and revision number must match on all Dell Networking OS devices. If there are non-Dell devices that participate in MSTP, ensure these values match on all devices.
Max-hops — the maximum number of hops a BPDU can travel before a receiving switch discards it. NOTE: Dell Networking recommends that only experienced network administrators change MSTP parameters. Poorly planned modification of MSTP parameters can negatively affect network performance.
Example of the forward-delay Parameter To view the current values for MSTP parameters, use the show running-config spanning-tree mstp command from EXEC privilege mode. Dell(conf-mstp)#forward-delay 16 Dell(conf-mstp)#exit Dell(conf)#do show running-config spanning-tree mstp protocol spanning-tree mstp no disable name my-mstp-region MSTI 1 VLAN 100...

Flush MAC Addresses after a Topology Change Dell Networking OS has an optimized MAC address flush mechanism for RSTP, MSTP, and PVST+ that flushes addresses only when necessary, which allows for faster convergence during topology changes. However, you may activate the flushing mechanism defined by 802.1Q-2003 using the tc-flush-standard command, which flushes MAC addresses after every topology change notification.

Because protocol control traffic in the Dell Networking OS is redirected using the MAC address, and multicast control traffic and multicast data traffic might map to the same MAC address, the Dell Networking OS might forward data traffic with certain MAC addresses to the CPU in addition to control traffic.
IGMP and MLD to resume. • If you decrease the limit after it is reached, the Dell Networking OS does not clear the existing sessions. Entries are cleared after a timeout (you may also clear entries using the clear ip mroute command).
Page 553
Dell Networking OS Behavior: Do not enter the ip igmp access-group command before creating the access-list. If you do, after entering your first deny rule, the Dell Networking OS clears the multicast routing table and re-learns all groups, even those not covered by the rules in the access-list, because there is an implicit deny all rule at the end of all access-lists.

To permit or deny PIM Join/Prune messages on an interface using an extended IP access list, use the following command. NOTE: Dell Networking recommends not using the ip pim join-filter command on an interface between a source and the RP router. Using this command in this scenario could cause problems with the PIM-SM source registration process resulting in excessive traffic being sent to the CPU of both the RP and PIM DR of the source.
IPv4 or IPv6 object tracking is available on Dell Networking OS. Object tracking allows the Dell Networking OS client processes, such as virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP), to monitor tracked objects (for example, interface or link status) and take appropriate action when the state of an object changes.
Figure 95. Object Tracking Example When you configure a tracked object, such as an IPv4/IPv6 a route or interface, you specify an object number to identify the object. Optionally, you can also specify: • UP and DOWN thresholds used to report changes in a route metric. •...
For OSPF, you can set the resolution in the range from 1 to 1592, where the default is 1. • The resolution value used to map static routes is not configurable. By default, Dell Networking OS assigns a metric of 0 to static routes. •...

Open shortest path first (OSPFv2 for IPv4) and OSPF version 3 (OSPF for IPv6) are supported on Dell Networking OS. This chapter provides a general description of OSPFv2 (OSPF for IPv4) and OSPFv3 (OSPF for IPv6) as supported in the Dell Networking Operating System (OS).
Areas allow you to further organize your routers within in the AS. One or more areas are required within the AS. Areas are valuable in that they allow sub-networks to "hide" within the AS, thus minimizing the size of the routing tables on all routers. An area within the AS may not see the details of another area’s topology.
Each router has a unique ID, written in decimal format (A.B.C.D). You do not have to associate the router ID with a valid IP address. However, to make troubleshooting easier, Dell Networking recommends that the router ID and the router’s IP address reflect each other.
Page 574
Figure 97. OSPF Routing Examples Backbone Router (BR) A backbone router (BR) is part of the OSPF Backbone, Area 0. This includes all ABRs. It can also include any routers that connect only to the backbone and another ABR, but are only part of Area 0, such as Router I in the previous example.
OSPF routers on the network segment are listening on. These router designations are not the same ad the router IDs described earlier. The DRs and BDRs are configurable in Dell Networking OS. If you do not define DR or BDR, the system assigns them. OSPF looks at the priority of the routers on the segment to determine which routers are the DR and BDR.
• Type 7: External LSA — Routers in an NSSA do not receive external LSAs from ABRs, but are allowed to send external routing information for redistribution. They use Type 7 LSAs to tell the ABRs about these external routes, which the ABR then translates to Type 5 external LSAs and floods as normal to the rest of the OSPF network.
OSPFv3 in VRF. Also, on OSPFv3, Dell Networking OS supports only one OSPFv3 process per VRF. OSPFv2 and OSPFv3 can co-exist but you must configure them individually. Dell Networking OS supports stub areas, totally stub (no summary) and not so stubby areas (NSSAs) and supports the following LSAs, as described earlier.
When the restarting router completes its restart, it flushes the Type 9 and 11 LSAs, notifying its neighbors that the restart is complete. This notification happens before the grace period expires. Dell Networking routers support the following OSPF graceful restart functionality: •...
Fast convergence allows you to define the speeds at which LSAs are originated and accepted, and reduce OSPFv2 end-to-end convergence time. Dell Networking OS allows you to accept and originate LSAs as soon as they are available to speed up route information propagation. NOTE: The faster the convergence, the more frequent the route calculations and updates.
In Dell Networking OS, the OSPF dead interval value is, by default, set to 40 seconds, and is independent of the OSPF hello interval. Configuring a hello interval does not change the dead interval in Dell Networking OS. In contrast, the OSPF dead interval on a Cisco router is, by default, four times as long as the hello interval.
In the following example, the dead interval is set at 4x the hello interval (shown in bold).

In CONFIGURATION ROUTER OSPF mode, assign the router ID. The router ID is not required to be the router’s IP address. However, Dell Networking recommends using the IP address as the router ID for easier management and troubleshooting. Optional process-id commands are also described.
Page 584
Dell(conf-router_ospf-1)# Dell# Dell Networking recommends using the interface IP addresses for the OSPFv2 router ID for easier management and troubleshooting. To view the configuration, use the show config command in CONFIGURATION ROUTER OSPF mode. OSPF, by default, sends hello packets out to all physical interfaces assigned an IP address that is a subset of a network on which OSPF is enabled.

Dell# Changing OSPFv2 Parameters on Interfaces In Dell Networking OS, you can modify the OSPF settings on the interfaces. Some interface parameter values must be consistent across all interfaces to avoid routing errors. For example, set the same time interval for the hello packets on all routers in the OSPF network to prevent misconfiguration of OSPF neighbors.

Enabling OSPFv2 Graceful Restart Graceful restart is enabled for the global OSPF process. The Dell Networking implementation of OSPFv2 graceful restart enables you to specify: • grace period — the length of time the graceful restart process can last before OSPF terminates it.
Page 591
After you enable restart mode the router advertises the neighbor as fully adjacent during a restart. For more information about OSPF graceful restart, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide. Example of the show run ospf Command When you configure a graceful restart on an OSPFv2 router, the show run ospf command displays information similar to the following.

Assigning Area ID on an Interface To assign the OSPFv3 process to an interface, use the following command. The ipv6 ospf area command enables OSPFv3 on an interface and places the interface in the specified area. Additionally, the command creates the OSPFv3 process with ID on the router. OSPFv2 requires two commands to accomplish the same tasks — the router ospf command to create the OSPF process, then the network area command to enable OSPFv2 on an interface.
Assigning OSPFv3 Process ID and Router ID to a VRF To assign, disable, or reset OSPFv3 on a non-default VRF, use the following commands. • Enable the OSPFv3 process on a non-default VRF and enter OSPFv3 mode. CONFIGURATION mode ipv6 router ospf {process ID}} The process ID range is from 0 to 65535.

Policy-based Routing (PBR) Policy-based routing (PBR) allows a switch to make routing decisions based on policies applied to an interface. Overview When a router receives a packet, the router decides where to forward the packet based on the destination address in the packet, which is used to look up an entry in a routing table.
• If the specified next-hops are not reachable, the normal routing table is used to forward the traffic. • Dell Networking OS supports multiple next-hop entries in the redirect lists. • Redirect-lists are applied at Ingress. PBR with Redirect-to-Tunnel Option: You can provide a tunnel ID for a redirect rule.
The Dell Networking OS assigns the first available sequence number to a rule configured without a sequence number and inserts the rule into the PBR CAM region next to the existing entries. Because the order of rules is important, ensure that you configure any necessary sequence numbers.

For more information about spanning tree, refer to the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) chapter. Figure 104. Per-VLAN Spanning Tree The Dell Networking OS supports three other variations of spanning tree, as shown in the following table. Per-VLAN Spanning Tree Plus (PVST+)
• The Dell Networking OS implementation of PVST+ uses IEEE 802.1s costs as the default costs (as shown in the following table). Other implementations use IEEE 802.1w costs as the default costs. If you are using Dell Networking systems in a multivendor network, verify that the costs are values you intended.
no disable Disabling PVST+ To disable PVST+ globally or on an interface, use the following commands. • Disable PVST+ globally. PROTOCOL PVST mode disable • Disable PVST+ on an interface, or remove a PVST+ parameter configuration. INTERFACE mode no spanning-tree pvst Example of Viewing PVST+ Configuration To display your PVST+ configuration, use the show config command from PROTOCOL PVST mode.
Page 658
Figure 105. Load Balancing with PVST+ The bridge with the bridge value for bridge priority is elected root. Because all bridges use the default priority (until configured otherwise), the lowest MAC address is used as a tie-breaker. To increase the likelihood that a bridge is selected as the STP root, assign bridges a low non-default value for bridge priority.
• Change the hello-time parameter. PROTOCOL PVST mode vlan hello-time NOTE: With large configurations (especially those configurations with more ports), Dell Networking recommends increasing the hello-time. The range is from 1 to 10. The default is 2 seconds. • Change the max-age parameter.
The Dell Networking OS implementation of PVST+ uses IEEE 802.1s costs as the default costs. Other implementations use IEEE 802.1w costs as the default costs. If you are using Dell Networking systems in a multi-vendor network, verify that the costs are values you intended.
There is no data loop in this scenario; however, you can employ PVST+ to avoid potential misconfigurations. If you enable PVST+ on the Dell Networking switch in this network, P1 and P2 receive BPDUs from each other. Ordinarily, the Bridge ID in the frame matches the Root ID, a loop is detected, and the rules of convergence require that P2 move to blocking state because it has the lowest port ID.

Dell Networking QoS Architecture Topics: Quality of Service (QoS)
Setting dot1p Priorities for Incoming Traffic Dell Networking OS places traffic marked with a priority in a queue based on the following table. If you set a dot1p priority for a port-channel, all port-channel members are configured with the same value. You cannot assign a dot1p value to an individual interface in a port-channel.
Honoring dot1p Priorities on Ingress Traffic By default, Dell Networking OS does not honor dot1p priorities on ingress traffic. You can configure this feature on physical interfaces and port-channels, but you cannot configure it on individual interfaces in a port channel.
Dell Networking OS Behavior: Rate shaping is effectively rate limiting because of its smaller buffer size. Rate shaping on tagged ports is slightly greater than the configured rate and rate shaping on untagged ports is slightly less than configured rate.
Class maps differentiate traffic so that you can apply separate quality of service policies to different types of traffic. For both class maps, Layer 2 and Layer 3, Dell Networking OS matches packets against match criteria in the order that you configure them.
Page 671
CLASS MAP mode match {ip | ipv6 | ip-any} After you create a class-map, Dell Networking OS places you in CLASS MAP mode. Match-any class maps allow up to five ACLs. Match-all class-maps allow only one ACL. Link the class-map to a queue.

To display all class-maps or a specific class map, use the following command. Dell Networking OS Behavior: An explicit “deny any" rule in a Layer 3 ACL used in a (match any or match all) class-map creates a "default to Queue 0" entry in the CAM, which causes unintended traffic classification. In the following example, traffic is classified in two Queues, 1 and 2.
(as in TABLE 1). If a custom dot1p to queue mapping is present it should be reconfigured to the default dot1p to queue mapping. • Currently Dell Networking OS supports matching only the following TCP flags: • •...
In the existing software, ECE/CWR TCP flag qualifiers are not supported. • Because this functionality forcibly marks all the packets matching the specific match criteria as ‘yellow’, Dell Networking OS does not support Policer based coloring and this feature concurrently.

Dell Networking OS provides the ability to honor DSCP values on ingress packets using Trust DSCP feature. The following table lists the standard DSCP definitions and indicates to which queues Dell Networking OS maps DSCP values. When you configure trust DSCP, the matched packets and matched bytes counters are not incremented in the show qos statistics.

• If you apply a service policy that contains an ACL to more than one interface, Dell Networking OS uses ACL optimization to conserve CAM space. The ACL optimization behavior detects when an ACL exists in the CAM rather than writing it to the CAM multiple times.
Enabling QoS Rate Adjustment By default while rate limiting, policing, and shaping, Dell Networking OS does not include the Preamble, SFD, or the IFG fields. These fields are overhead; only the fields from MAC destination address to the CRC are used for forwarding and are included in these rate metering calculations.
2 which will be honored in switch A. You will not get the below CLI errors after adding this support: Dell(conf)#qos-policy-input qos-input Dell(conf-qos-policy-in)#set mac-dot1p 5 % Error: Dot1p marking is not allowed on L3 Input Qos Policy. Quality of Service (QoS)
Dell(conf-qos-policy-in)# You will also be able to mark both DSCP and Dot1p in the L3 Input Qos Policy: Dell(conf)#qos-policy-input qos-input Dell(conf-qos-policy-in)#set mac-dot1p 2 Dell(conf-qos-policy-in)#set ip-dscp 5 Dell Dell(conf-qos-policy-in)# Weighted Random Early Detection Weighted random early detection (WRED) is a congestion avoidance mechanism that drops packets to prevent buffering resources from being consumed.
After you create a WRED profile, you must specify to which traffic Dell Networking OS should apply the profile. Dell Networking OS assigns a color (also called drop precedence) — red, yellow, or green — to each packet based on it DSCP value before queuing it.
Pre-Calculating Available QoS CAM Space Before Dell Networking OS version 7.3.1, there was no way to measure the number of CAM entries a policy-map would consume (the number of CAM entries that a rule uses is not predictable; from 1 to 16 entries might be used per rule depending upon its complexity).
In releases of Dell Networking OS earlier than Release 9.3(0.0), you can configure only the maximum shaping attributes, such as the peak rate and the peak burst settings. You can now specify the committed or minimum burst and committed rate attributes. The committed burst and committed rate values can be defined either in bytes or pps.
The weight factor is set to zero by default, which causes the same behavior as dropping of packets by WRED during network loads or also called instantaneous ECN marking. In a topology in which congestion of the network varies over time, you can specify a weight to enable a smooth, seamless averaging of packets to handle the sudden overload of packets based on the previous time sampling performed.
Color-Marking Packets Keep the following points in mind while configuring the marking and mapping of incoming packets using ECN fields in IPv4 headers: • Currently Dell Networking OS supports matching only the following TCP flags: • Quality of Service (QoS)
In the existing software, ECE/CWR TCP flag qualifiers are not supported. • Because this functionality forcibly marks all the packets matching the specific match criteria as ‘yellow’, Dell Networking OS does not support Policer based coloring and this feature concurrently.
Page 692
• You can now use the ‘ecn’ match qualifier along with the above TCP flag for classification. The following combination of match qualifiers is acceptable to be configured for the Dell Networking OS software through L3 ACL command: Quality of Service (QoS)
By default, all packets are considered as ‘green’ (without the rate-policer and trust-diffserve configuration) and hence support would be provided to mark the packets as ‘yellow’ alone will be provided. By default Dell Networking OS drops all the ‘RED’ or ‘violate’ packets. The following combination of marking actions to be specified match sequence of the class-map command: •...

The trigger can either be software-based or based on a predetermined threshold event. Software- based triggers are supported, which are the values derived from the show command output in the Max Use count mode. In Dell Networking OS Release 9.3(0.0), only the Max Use count mode of operation is supported for the computation of maximum counter values.

Routing Information Protocol (RIP) The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) tracks distances or hop counts to nearby routers when establishing network connections and is based on a distance-vector algorithm. RIP is based on a distance-vector algorithm; it tracks distances or hop counts to nearby routers when establishing network connections. RIP protocol standards are listed in the Standards Compliance chapter.
Implementation Information Dell Networking OS supports both versions of RIP and allows you to configure one version globally and the other version on interfaces or both versions on the interfaces. The following table lists the defaults for RIP in Dell Networking OS.
Page 699
After designating networks with which the system is to exchange RIP information, ensure that all devices on that network are configured to exchange RIP information. The Dell Networking OS default is to send RIPv1 and to receive RIPv1 and RIPv2. To change the RIP version globally, use the version command in ROUTER RIP mode.
Page 700
RIP updates from other sources. To control the source of RIP route information, use the following commands. • Define a specific router to exchange RIP information between it and the Dell Networking system. ROUTER RIP mode Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
Page 701
Those routes must meet the conditions of the prefix list; if not, Dell Networking OS drops the route. Prefix lists are globally applied on all interfaces running RIP. Configure the prefix list in PREFIX LIST mode prior to assigning it to the RIP process.
Page 702
Default routes are not enabled in RIP unless specified. Use the default-information originate command in ROUTER RIP mode to generate a default route into RIP. In Dell Networking OS, default routes received in RIP updates from other routes are advertised if you configure the default-information originate command.
Page 703
• always: Enter the keyword always to always generate a default route. • value The range is from 1 to 16. • route-map-name: The name of a configured route map. To confirm that the default route configuration is completed, use the show config command in ROUTER RIP mode. Summarize Routes Routes in the RIPv2 routing table are summarized by default, thus reducing the size of the routing table and improving routing efficiency in large networks.
Enable debugging of RIP. Example of the debug ip rip Command The following example shows the confirmation when you enable the debug function. Dell#debug ip rip RIP protocol debug is ON Dell# To disable RIP, use the no debug ip rip command.

RMON is an industry-standard implementation that monitors network traffic by sharing network monitoring information. RMON provides both 32-bit and 64-bit monitoring facility and long-term statistics collection on Dell Networking Ethernet interfaces. RMON operates with the simple network management protocol (SNMP) and monitors all nodes on a local area network (LAN) segment.

Page 725
Currently, Dell Networking OS supports only TACACS+. Suppressing AAA Accounting for Null Username Sessions When you activate AAA accounting, the Dell Networking OS software issues accounting records for all users on the system, including users whose username string is NULL because of protocol translation.
Dell Networking uses local usernames/passwords (stored on the Dell Networking system) or AAA for login authentication. With AAA, you can specify the security protocol or mechanism for different login methods and different users. In Dell Networking OS, AAA uses a list of authentication methods, called method lists, to define the types of authentication and the sequence in which they are applied.
If the first method list does not respond or returns an error, Dell Networking OS applies the next method list until the user either passes or fails the authentication. If the user fails a method list, Dell Networking OS does not apply the next method list.
Page 728
To view the configuration, use the show config command in LINE mode or the show running-config in EXEC Privilege mode. NOTE: Dell Networking recommends using the none method only as a backup. This method does not authenticate users. The none and enable methods do not work with secure shell (SSH).
Using AAA authentication, the switch acts as a RADIUS or TACACS+ client to send authentication requests to a TACACS+ or RADIUS server. • TACACS+ — When using TACACS+, Dell Networking sends an initial packet with service type SVC_ENABLE, and then sends a second packet with just the password. The TACACS server must have an entry for username $enable$. •...
Limiting access to the system is one method of protecting the system and your network. However, at times, you might need to allow others access to the router and you can limit that access to a subset of commands. In Dell Networking OS, you can configure a privilege level for users who need limited access to the system.
Page 731
To view username, use the show users command in EXEC Privilege mode. Configuring the Enable Password Command To configure Dell Networking OS, use the enable command to enter EXEC Privilege level 15. After entering the command, Dell Networking OS requests that you enter a password.
Page 732
0 to 15. Levels 0, 1, and 15 are pre-configured. Levels 2 to 14 are available for custom configuration. • command: an Dell Networking OS CLI keyword (up to five keywords allowed). • reset: return the command to its default privilege mode.

The show privilege command output confirms that john is in privilege level 8.
For more information about RADIUS, refer to RFC 2865, Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service. RADIUS Authentication Dell Networking OS supports RADIUS for user authentication (text password) at login and can be specified as one of the login authentication methods in the aaa authentication login command.
Page 735
• ACL Configuration Information • Auto-Command • Privilege Levels After gaining authorization for the first time, you may configure these attributes. NOTE: RADIUS authentication/authorization is done for every login. There is no difference between first-time login and subsequent logins. Idle Time Every session line has its own idle-time.
• Monitoring RADIUS (optional) For a complete listing of all Dell Networking OS commands related to RADIUS, refer to the Security chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Guide. NOTE: RADIUS authentication and authorization are done in a single step. Hence, authorization cannot be used independent of authentication.
Page 737
To specify multiple RADIUS server hosts, configure the radius-server host command multiple times. If you configure multiple RADIUS server hosts, Dell Networking OS attempts to connect with them in the order in which they were configured. When Dell Networking OS attempts to authenticate a user, the software connects with the RADIUS server hosts one at a time, until a RADIUS server host responds with an accept or reject response.
TACACS+ Remote Authentication • Specifying a TACACS+ Server Host For a complete listing of all commands related to TACACS+, refer to the Security chapter in the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Guide. Choosing TACACS+ as the Authentication Method One of the login authentication methods available is TACACS+ and the user’s name and password are sent for authentication to the TACACS hosts specified.
Page 739
If authentication fails using the primary method, Dell Networking OS employs the second method (or third method, if necessary) automatically. For example, if the TACACS+ server is reachable, but the server key is invalid, Dell Networking OS proceeds to the next authentication method.
Dell(conf)#username angeline password angeline Dell(conf)#%RPM0-P:CP %SEC-5-LOGIN_SUCCESS: Login successful for user angeline on vty0 (10.11.9.209) %RPM0-P:CP %SEC-3-AUTHENTICATION_ENABLE_SUCCESS: Enable password authentication success on vty0 ( 10.11.9.209 ) Monitoring TACACS+ To view information on TACACS+ transactions, use the following command. • View TACACS+ transactions to troubleshoot problems.
Enabling SCP and SSH Secure shell (SSH) is a protocol for secure remote login and other secure network services over an insecure network. Dell Networking OS is compatible with SSH versions 1.5 and 2, in both the client and server modes. SSH sessions are encrypted and use authentication. SSH is enabled by default.
Specifying an SSH Version The following example uses the ip ssh server version 2 command to enable SSH version 2 and the show ip ssh command to confirm the setting. Dell(conf)#ip ssh server version 2 Dell(conf)#do show ip ssh SSH server : enabled.
To remove the generated RSA host keys and zeroize the key storage location, use the crypto key zeroize rsa command in CONFIGURATION mode. Dell(conf)#crypto key zeroize rsa Configuring When to Re-generate an SSH Key You can configure the time-based or volume-based rekey threshold for an SSH session. If both threshold types are configured, the session rekeys when either one of the thresholds is reached.
Examples The following example configures the time-based rekey threshold for an SSH session to 30 minutes. Dell(conf)#ip ssh rekey time 30 The following example configures the volume-based rekey threshold for an SSH session to 4096 megabytes. Dell(conf)#ip ssh rekey volume 4096...
Secure Shell (SSH) is enabled by default using the SSH Password Authentication method. Enabling SSH Authentication by Password Authenticate an SSH client by prompting for a password when attempting to connect to the Dell Networking system. This setup is the simplest method of authentication and uses SSH version 1.
Page 746
The following procedure authenticates an SSH client based on an RSA key using RSA authentication. This method uses SSH version 2. On the SSH client (Unix machine), generate an RSA key, as shown in the following example. Copy the public key id_rsa.pub to the Dell Networking system. Disable password authentication if enabled.

Dell(conf)#ip telnet server enable Dell(conf)#no ip telnet server enable VTY Line and Access-Class Configuration Various methods are available to restrict VTY access in Dell Networking OS. These depend on which authentication scheme you use — line, local, or remote. Table 74. VTY Access...
Dell Networking OS retrieves the access class from the VTY line. The Dell Networking OS takes the access class from the VTY line and applies it to ALL users. Dell Networking OS does not need to know the identity of the incoming user and can immediately apply the access class. If the authentication method is RADIUS, TACACS+, or line, and you have configured an access class for the VTY line, Dell Networking OS immediately applies it.
(same applies for radius and line authentication) VTY MAC-SA Filter Support Dell Networking OS supports MAC access lists which permit or deny users based on their source MAC address. With this approach, you can implement a security policy based on the source MAC address.
When you enable role-based only AAA authorization using the aaa authorization role-only command in Configuration mode, the Dell Networking OS checks to ensure that you do not lock yourself out and that the user authentication is available for all terminal lines.
Page 752
To enable role-based only AAA authorization: Dell(conf)#aaa authorization role-only System-Defined RBAC User Roles By default, the Dell Networking OS provides 4 system defined user roles. You can create up to 8 additional user roles. NOTE: You cannot delete any system defined roles.

Service Provider Bridging Service provider bridging provides the ability to add a second VLAN ID tag in an Ethernet frame and is referred to as VLAN stacking in the Dell Networking OS. VLAN Stacking VLAN stacking, also called Q-in-Q, is defined in IEEE 802.1ad — Provider Bridges, which is an amendment to IEEE 802.1Q — Virtual Bridged Local Area Networks.
To switch traffic, add these interfaces to a non-default VLAN-Stack-enabled VLAN. • Dell Networking cautions against using the same MAC address on different customer VLANs, on the same VLAN-Stack VLAN. • This limitation becomes relevant if you enable the port as a multi-purpose port (carrying single-tagged and double-tagged traffic).
Enabling VLAN-Stacking for a VLAN. Related Configuration Tasks • Configuring the Protocol Type Value for the Outer VLAN Tag • Configuring Dell Networking OS Options for Trunk Ports • Debugging VLAN Stacking • VLAN Stacking in Multi-Vendor Networks Creating Access and Trunk Ports To create access and trunk ports, use the following commands.
The default is 9100. To display the S-Tag TPID for a VLAN, use the show running-config command from EXEC privilege mode. Dell Networking OS displays the S-Tag TPID only if it is a non-default value. Configuring Dell Networking OS Options for Trunk Ports 802.1ad trunk ports may also be tagged members of a VLAN so that it can carry single and double-tagged traffic.
While 802.1Q requires that the inner tag TPID is 0x8100, it does not require a specific value for the outer tag TPID. Systems may use any 2- byte value; Dell Networking OS uses 0x9100 (shown in the following) while non-Dell Networking systems might use a different value.
Page 767
R4. The TPID on the outer tag is 0x9100. R2’s TPID must also be 0x9100, and it is, so R2 forwards the frame. Given the matching-TPID requirement, there are limitations when you employ Dell Networking systems at network edges, at which, frames are either double tagged on ingress (R4) or the outer tag is removed on egress (R3).

In Dell Networking OS version 8.2.1.0 and later, the L2PT MAC address is user-configurable, so you can specify an address that non-Dell Networking systems can recognize and rewrite the address at egress edge.
Figure 118. VLAN Stacking with L2PT Implementation Information • L2PT is available for STP, RSTP, MSTP, and PVST+ BPDUs. • No protocol packets are tunneled when you enable VLAN stacking. • L2PT requires the default CAM profile. Enabling Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling To enable Layer 2 protocol tunneling, use the following command.
Specifying a Destination MAC Address for BPDUs By default, Dell Networking OS uses a Dell Networking-unique MAC address for tunneling BPDUs. You can configure another value. To specify a destination MAC address for BPDUs, use the following command.
Debugging Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling To debug Layer 2 protocol tunneling, use the following command. • Display debugging information for L2PT. EXEC Privilege mode debug protocol-tunnel Provider Backbone Bridging IEEE 802.1ad—Provider Bridges amends 802.1Q—Virtual Bridged Local Area Networks so that service providers can use 802.1Q architecture to offer separate VLANs to customers with no coordination between customers, and minimal coordination between customers and the provider.
Implementation Information Dell Networking sFlow is designed so that the hardware sampling rate is per line card port-pipe and is decided based on all the ports in that port-pipe.
• Dell Networking OS exports all sFlow packets to the collector. A small sampling rate can equate to many exported packets. A backoff mechanism is automatically applied to reduce this amount. Some sampled packets may be dropped when the exported packet rate is high and the backoff mechanism is about to or is starting to take effect.

Topics: •...
The following describes SNMP implementation information. • Dell Networking OS supports SNMP version 1 as defined by RFC 1155, 1157, and 1212, SNMP version 2c as defined by RFC 1901, and SNMP version 3 as defined by RFC 2571. •...
The configurations in this chapter use a UNIX environment with net-snmp version 5.4. This environment is only one of many RFC-compliant SNMP utilities you can use to manage your Dell Networking system using SNMP. Also, these configurations use SNMP version 2c.
Dell Networking OS enables SNMP automatically when you create an SNMP community and displays the following message. You must specify whether members of the community may only retrieve values (read), or retrieve and alter values (read-write).
You may only retrieve (read) managed object values if your management station is a member of the same community as the SNMP agent. Dell Networking supports RFC 4001, Textual Conventions for Internet Work Addresses that defines values representing a type of internet address.
You may use up to 55 characters. The default is None. • (From a Dell Networking system) Identify the physical location of the system (for example, San Jose, 350 Holger Way, 1st floor lab, rack A1-1). CONFIGURATION mode snmp-server location text You may use up to 55 characters.
Subscribing to Managed Object Value Updates using SNMP By default, the Dell Networking system displays some unsolicited SNMP messages (traps) upon certain events and conditions. You can also configure the system to send the traps to a management station. Traps cannot be saved on the system.

System time and date settings and the network time protocol (NTP) are supported on Dell Networking OS. You can set system times and dates and maintained through the NTP. They are also set through the Dell Networking Operating System (OS) command line interfaces (CLIs) and hardware settings.
Dell Networking OS synchronizes with a time-serving host to get the correct time. You can set Dell Networking OS to poll specific NTP time-serving hosts for the current time. From those time-serving hosts, the system chooses one NTP host with which to synchronize and serve as a client to the NTP host.
NTP is disabled by default. To enable NTP, specify an NTP server to which the Dell Networking system synchronizes. To specify multiple servers, enter the command multiple times. You may specify an unlimited number of servers at the expense of CPU resources.
Disabling NTP on an Interface By default, NTP is enabled on all active interfaces. If you disable NTP on an interface, Dell Networking OS drops any NTP packets sent to that interface. To disable NTP on an interface, use the following command.

Uplink Failure Detection (UFD) Uplink failure detection (UFD) provides detection of the loss of upstream connectivity and, if used with network interface controller (NIC) teaming, automatic recovery from a failed link. Feature Description A switch provides upstream connectivity for devices, such as servers. If a switch loses its upstream connectivity, downstream devices also lose their connectivity.
Figure 126. Uplink Failure Detection How Uplink Failure Detection Works UFD creates an association between upstream and downstream interfaces. The association of uplink and downlink interfaces is called an uplink-state group. An interface in an uplink-state group can be a physical interface or a port-channel (LAG) aggregation of physical interfaces. An enabled uplink-state group tracks the state of all assigned upstream interfaces.
Figure 127. Uplink Failure Detection Example If only one of the upstream interfaces in an uplink-state group goes down, a specified number of downstream ports associated with the upstream interface are put into a Link-Down state. You can configure this number and is calculated by the ratio of the upstream port bandwidth to the downstream port bandwidth in the same uplink-state group.
• If one of the upstream interfaces in an uplink-state group goes down, either a user-configurable set of downstream ports or all the downstream ports in the group are put in an Operationally Down state with an UFD Disabled error. The order in which downstream ports are disabled is from the lowest numbered port to the highest.
NOTE: Downstream interfaces in an uplink-state group are put into a Link-Down state with an UFD-Disabled error message only when all upstream interfaces in the group go down. To revert to the default setting, use the no downstream disable links command. (Optional) Enable auto-recovery so that UFD-disabled downstream ports in the uplink-state group come up when a disabled upstream port in the group comes back up.
Example of Syslog Messages Before and After Entering the clear ufd-disable uplink-state-group Command (S50) The following example message shows the Syslog messages that display when you clear the UFD-Disabled state from all disabled downstream interfaces in an uplink-state group by using the clear ufd-disable uplink-state-group group-id command. All downstream interfaces return to an operationally up state.

T Te 1/1/1/1 Port-Based VLANs Port-based VLANs are a broadcast domain defined by different ports or interfaces. In Dell Networking OS, a port-based VLAN can contain interfaces from different line cards within the chassis. Dell Networking OS supports 4094 port-based VLANs.
Default VLAN. Dell Networking OS supports IEEE 802.1Q tagging at the interface level to filter traffic. When you enable tagging, a tag header is added to the frame after the destination and source MAC addresses. That information is preserved as the frame moves through the network. The following example shows the structure of a frame with a tag header.
(T) or untagged (U). For more information about this command, refer to the Layer 2 chapter of the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Guide. To tag frames leaving an interface in Layer 2 mode, assign that interface to a port-based VLAN to tag it with that VLAN ID. To tag interfaces, use the following commands.
You cannot assign an IP address to the Default VLAN (VLAN 1). To assign another VLAN ID to the Default VLAN, use the default vlan-id vlan-id command. In Dell Networking OS, you can place VLANs and other logical interfaces in Layer 3 mode to receive and send routed traffic. For more information, refer to Bulk Configuration.
This presents a vulnerability because both interfaces are initially placed in the native VLAN, VLAN 1, and for that period customers are able to access each other's networks. Dell Networking OS has a Null VLAN to eliminate this vulnerability. When you enable the Null VLAN, all ports are placed into it by default, so even if you activate the physical ports of multiple customers, no traffic is allowed to traverse the links until each port is place in another VLAN.
The virtual link trucking (VLT) proxy gateway feature allows a VLT domain to locally terminate and route L3 packets that are destined to a Layer 3 (L3) end point in another VLT domain. Enable the VLT proxy gateway using the link layer discover protocol (LLDP) method or the static configuration. For more information, see the Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide. Topics: •...
Figure 129. Sample Configuration for a VLT Proxy Gateway Guidelines for Enabling the VLT Proxy Gateway Keep the following points in mind when you enable a VLT proxy gateway: • Proxy gateway is supported only for VLT; for example, across a VLT domain. •...
TLV. • Dell Networking devices not configured with VLT proxy gateway process standard TLVs and ignore TLVs configured with VLT proxy gateway. The LLDP organizational TLV passes local destination MAC address information to peer VLT domain devices so they can act as a proxy gateway.
Page 869
• You must configure the interface proxy gateway LLDP to enable or disable a proxy-gateway LLDP TLV on specific interfaces. • The interface is typically a VLT port-channel that connects to a remote VLT domain. • The new proxy gateway TLV is carried on the physical links under the port channel only. •...
C and D (VLT domain 1) and C1 and D1 (VLT domain 2). This behavior is applicable only in the LLDP configuration and not required in the static configuration. Sample Configuration Dell(conf-vlt-domain)#proxy-gateway lldp Dell(conf-vlt-domain-pxy-gw-lldp)#vlt-peer-mac transmit • Assume the inter-chassis link (ICL) between C1 and D1 is shutdown and if D1 is the secondary VLT, one half of the inter DC link goes down.
Virtual Link Trunking (VLT) Virtual link trunking (VLT) allows physical links between two Dell switches to appear as a single virtual link to the network core or other switches such as Edge, Access, or top-of-rack (ToR). As a result, the two physical switches appear as a single switch to the connected devices.
Page 873
Figure 132. VLT providing multipath VLT reduces the role of spanning tree protocols (STPs) by allowing link aggregation group (LAG) terminations on two separate distribution or core switches and supporting a loop-free topology. To prevent the initial loop that may occur prior to VLT being established, use a spanning tree protocol. After VLT is established, you may use rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP) to prevent loops from forming with new links that are incorrectly connected and outside the VLT domain.
Page 874
Agility in VM Migration under VLT domain. CAUTION: Dell Networking does not recommend enabling Stacking and VLT simultaneously. If you enable both features at the same time, unexpected behavior may occur. As shown in the following example, VLT presents a single logical Layer 2 domain from the perspective of attached devices that have a virtual link trunk terminating on separate chassis in the VLT domain.
Figure 134. VLT on Core Switches The aggregation layer is mostly in the L2/L3 switching/routing layer. For better resiliency in the aggregation, Dell Networking recommends running the internal gateway protocol (IGP) on the VLTi VLAN to synchronize the L3 routing table across the two nodes on a VLT system.
End devices (such as switches, servers, and so on) connected to a VLT domain consider the two VLT peers as a single logical switch. • Although VLT does not require spanning tree protocols, Dell Networking recommends enabling RSTP before configuring VLT to avoid possible loops from forming due to incorrect configuration.
PVST Configuration. • Dell Networking strongly recommends that the VLTi (VLT interconnect) be a static LAG and that you disable LACP on the VLTi. • Ensure that the spanning tree root bridge is at the Aggregation layer. Refer to RSTP and VLT for guidelines to avoid traffic loss, if you enable RSTP on the VLT device.
VLT peer switches operate as separate chassis with independent control and data planes for devices attached to non-VLT ports. • Port-channel link aggregation (LAG) across the ports in the VLT interconnect is required; individual ports are not supported. Dell Networking strongly recommends configuring a static LAG for VLTi.
Page 879
• If the size of the MTU for VLTi members is less than 1496 bytes, MAC addresses may not synchronize between VLT peers. Dell Networking does not recommend using an MTU size lower than the default of 1554 bytes for VLTi members.
Page 880
Enable Layer 3 VLAN connectivity VLT peers by configuring a VLAN network interface for the same VLAN on both switches. • Dell Networking does not recommend enabling peer-routing if the CAM is full. To enable peer-routing, a minimum of two local DA spaces for wild-card functionality are required.
• If the primary chassis fails, the secondary chassis takes on the operational role of the primary. • The SNMP MIB reports VLT statistics. Primary and Secondary VLT Peers To prevent issues when connectivity between peers is lost, you can designate Primary and Secondary roles for VLT peers . You can elect or configure the Primary Peer.
VLT and IGMP Snooping When configuring IGMP Snooping with VLT, ensure the configurations on both sides of the VLT trunk are identical to get the same behavior on both sides of the trunk. When you configure IGMP snooping on a VLT node, the dynamically learned groups and multicast router ports are automatically learned on the VLT peer node.
Page 883
Figure 136. PIM-Sparse Mode Support on VLT On each VLAN where the VLT peer nodes act as the first hop or last hop routers, one of the VLT peer nodes is elected as the PIM designated router. If you configured IGMP snooping along with PIM on the VLT VLANs, you must configure VLTi as the static multicast router port on both VLT peer switches.
Each VLT peer runs its own PIM protocol independently of other VLT peers. To ensure the PIM protocol states or multicast routing information base (MRIB) on the VLT peers are synced, if the incoming interface (IIF) and outgoing interface (OIF) are Spanned, the multicast route table is synced between the VLT peers.
Page 885
NOTE: The peer routing and peer-routing-timeout is applicable for both IPv6/ IPv4. Configuring VLT Unicast To enable and configure VLT unicast, follow these steps. Enable VLT on a switch, then configure a VLT domain and enter VLT-domain configuration mode. CONFIGURATION mode vlt domain domain-id Enable peer-routing.
Run RSTP on both VLT peer switches. The primary VLT peer controls the RSTP states, such as forwarding and blocking, on both the primary and secondary peers. Dell Networking recommends configuring the primary VLT peer as the RSTP primary root device and configuring the secondary VLT peer as the RSTP secondary root device.
Preventing Forwarding Loops in a VLT Domain During the bootup of VLT peer switches, a forwarding loop may occur until the VLT configurations are applied on each switch and the primary/secondary roles are determined. To prevent the interfaces in the VLT interconnect trunk and RSTP-enabled VLT ports from entering a Forwarding state and creating a traffic loop in a VLT domain, take the following steps.
Page 888
Before you begin, make sure that both VLT peer switches are running the same Dell Networking OS version and are configured for RSTP as described in the RSTP Configuration section. For VRRP operation, ensure that you configure VRRP groups and L3 routing on each VLT...

Enabling VLT and Creating a VLT Domain To enable VLT and create a VLT domain, use the following steps. Enable VLT on a switch, then configure a VLT domain and enter VLT-domain configuration mode. CONFIGURATION mode vlt domain domain-id The domain ID range is from 1 to 1000. Configure the same domain ID on the peer switch to allow for common peering.
Page 890
LACP on VLT ports (on a VLT switch or access device), which are members of the virtual link trunk, is not brought up until the VLT domain is recognized on the access device. Repeat Steps 1 to 5 on the VLT peer switch to configure the IP address of this switch as the endpoint of the VLT backup link and to configure the same port channel for the VLT interconnect.
Page 891
Use this command to minimize the time required for the VLT system to synchronize the default MAC address of the VLT domain on both peer switches when one peer switch reboots. (Optional) When you create a VLT domain on a switch, Dell Networking OS automatically assigns a unique unit ID (0 or 1) to each peer switch.

When you create a VLT domain on a switch, Dell Networking OS automatically assigns a unique unit ID (0 or 1) to each peer switch. To explicitly configure the default values on each peer switch, use the following command. VLT DOMAIN CONFIGURATION mode unit-id {0 | 1} The unit IDs are used for internal system operations.
Page 895
NOTE: To benefit from the protocol negotiations, Dell Networking recommends configuring VLTs used as facing hosts/ switches with LACP. Ensure both peers use the same port channel ID. Configure the peer-link port-channel in the VLT domains of each peer unit.
Page 896
Example of Configuring VLT In the following sample VLT configuration steps, VLT peer 1 is Dell-2, VLT peer 2 is Dell-4, and the ToR is S60-1. NOTE: If you use a third-party ToR unit, Dell Networking recommends using static LAGs with VLT peers to avoid potential problems if you reboot the VLT peers.

Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) is supported on Dell Networking OS. Overview The switch acts as the VXLAN gateway and performs the VXLAN Tunnel End Point (VTEP) functionality. VXLAN is a technology where in the data traffic from the virtualized servers is transparently transported over an existing legacy network.
Provide an interface for cloud orchestration in cloud data center management. In VXLAN with NSX, Dell Networking OS supports physical interface or Port channel as access port. Dell supports only physical interface as network port and does not support Port channel/VLAN as network port.
VXLAN Hypervisor It is the VTEP that connects the Virtual Machines (VM) to the underlay legacy network to the physical infrastructure. Service Node(SN) It is also another VTEP, but it is fully managed by NSX. The purpose of SN is to be the central replication engine for flooded packets Legacy TOR It is a TOR switch, which performs routing or switching decisions.
Components of VXLAN Frame Format Some of the important fields of the VXLAN frame format are described below: Outer Ethernet The Outer Ethernet Header consists of the following components: Header: • Destination Address: Generally, it is a first hop router's MAC address when the VTEP is on a different address. •...

Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) allows a physical router to partition itself into multiple Virtual Routers (VRs). The control and data plane are isolated in each VR so that traffic does NOT flow across VRs.Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) allows multiple instances of a routing table to co-exist within the same router at the same time.
VRF supports route redistribution between routing protocols (including static routes) only when the routes are within the same VRF. Dell Networking OS uses both the VRF name and VRF ID to manage VRF instances. The VRF name and VRF ID number are assigned using the ip vrf command.
Page 931
If the next-hop IP in a static route VRF statement is VRRP IP of another VRF, this static route does not get installed on the VRRP master. VRF supports some routing protocols only on the default VRF (default-vrf) instance. Table 1 displays the software features supported in VRF and whether they are supported on all VRF instances or only the default VRF.

Assigning an Interface to a VRF You must enter the ip vrf forwarding command before you configure the IP address or any other setting on an interface. NOTE: You can configure an IP address or subnet on a physical or VLAN interface that overlaps the same IP address or subnet configured on another interface only if the interfaces are assigned to different VRFs.

See the Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv2) chapter for complete OSPF configuration information. Assign an OSPF process to a VRF instance . Return to CONFIGURATION mode to enable the OSPF process. The OSPF Process ID is the identifying number assigned to the OSPF process, and the Router ID is the IP address associated with the OSPF process.

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) Virtual router redundancy protocol (VRRP) is designed to eliminate a single point of failure in a statically routed network. VRRP Overview VRRP is designed to eliminate a single point of failure in a statically routed network. VRRP specifies a MASTER router that owns the next hop IP and MAC address for end stations on a local area network (LAN).
Figure 147. Basic VRRP Configuration VRRP Benefits With VRRP configured on a network, end-station connectivity to the network is not subject to a single point-of-failure. End-station connections to the network are redundant and are not dependent on internal gateway protocol (IGP) protocols to converge or update routing tables.
For a complete listing of all commands related to VRRP, refer to Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide. Creating a Virtual Router To enable VRRP, create a virtual router. In Dell Networking Operating System (OS), the virtual router identifier (VRID) identifies a VRRP group.

The virtual IP addresses must be in the same subnet as the primary or secondary IP addresses configured on the interface. Though a single VRRP group can contain virtual IP addresses belonging to multiple IP subnets configured on the interface, Dell Networking recommends configuring virtual IP addresses belonging to the same IP subnet for any one VRRP group.
Page 952
Examples of the Configuring and Verifying a Virtual IP Address The following example shows how to configure a virtual IP address. Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1/1-vrid-111)#virtual-address 10.10.10.1 Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1/1-vrid-111)#virtual-address 10.10.10.2 Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1/1-vrid-111)#virtual-address 10.10.10.3 The following example shows how to verify a virtual IP address configuration. NOTE: In the following example, the primary IP address and the virtual IP addresses are on the same subnet.
Configuring VRRP Authentication Simple authentication of VRRP packets ensures that only trusted routers participate in VRRP processes. When you enable authentication, Dell Networking OS includes the password in its VRRP transmission. The receiving router uses that password to verify the transmission.
Page 954
Examples of the authentication-type Command The bold section shows the encryption type (encrypted) and the password. Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1/1-vrid-111)#authentication-type ? Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1/1-vrid-111)#authentication-type simple 7 force10 The following example shows verifying the VRRP authentication configuration using the show conf command. The bold section shows the encrypted password.
Page 955
MASTER. NOTE: To avoid throttling VRRP advertisement packets, Dell Networking OS recommends increasing the VRRP advertisement interval to a value higher than the default value of one second. If you do change the time interval between VRRP advertisements on one router, change it on all participating routers.
Track an Interface or Object You can set Dell Networking OS to monitor the state of any interface according to the virtual group. Each VRRP group can track up to 12 interfaces and up to 20 additional objects, which may affect the priority of the VRRP group. If the tracked interface goes down, the VRRP group’s priority decreases by a default value of 10 (also known as cost).
Page 957
Examples of Configuring and Viewing the track Command The following example shows how to configure tracking using the track command.

15 minutes, after which VRRP enables normally. NOTE: When you reload a node that contains VRRP configuration and is enabled for VLT, Dell Networking recommends that you configure the reload timer by using the vrrp delay reload command to ensure that VRRP is functional. Otherwise, when you reload a VLT node configured for VRRP, the local destination address is not seen on the reloaded node causing suboptimal routing.
The default is 0. Sample Configurations Before you set up VRRP, review the following sample configurations. VRRP for an IPv4 Configuration The following configuration shows how to enable IPv4 VRRP. This example does not contain comprehensive directions and is intended to provide guidance for only a typical VRRP configuration.

Figure 149. VRRP for an IPv6 Configuration NOTE: In a VRRP or VRRPv3 group, if two routers come up with the same priority and another router already has MASTER status, the router with master status continues to be MASTER even if one of two routers has a higher IP or IPv6 address. The following example shows configuring VRRP for IPv6 Router 2 and Router 3.

VRRP in a VRF: Non-VLAN Scenario The following example shows how to enable VRRP in a non-VLAN. The following example shows a typical use case in which you create three virtualized overlay networks by configuring three VRFs in two switches. The default gateway to reach the Internet in each VRF is a static route with the next hop being the virtual IP address configured in VRRP.

You can copy and paste from the example to your CLI. Be sure you make the necessary changes to support your own IP addresses, interfaces, names, and so on.
Debugging and Diagnostics This chapter describes debugging and diagnostics for the device. Offline Diagnostics The offline diagnostics test suite is useful for isolating faults and debugging hardware. The diagnostics tests are grouped into three levels: • Level 0 — Level 0 diagnostics check for the presence of various components and perform essential path verifications. In addition, Level 0 diagnostics verify the identification registers of the components on the board.
Each trace message provides the date, time, and name of the Dell Networking OS process. All messages are stored in a ring buffer. You can save the messages to a file either manually or automatically after failover.
After the software has determined that the temperature levels are within normal limits, you can re-power the card safely. To bring back the line card online, use the power-on command in EXEC mode. In addition, to control airflow for adequate system cooling, Dell Networking requires that you install blanks in all slots without a line card. NOTE: Exercise care when removing a card;...
Dell Networking OS provides two pre-defined buffer profiles, one for single-queue (for example, non-quality-of-service [QoS]) applications, and one for four-queue (for example, QoS) applications. You must reload the system for the global buffer profile to take effect, a message...
Dell Networking OS Behavior: After you configure buffer-profile global 1Q, the message displays during every bootup. Only one reboot is required for the configuration to take effect; afterward you may ignore this bootup message.
Page 978
Examples of Viewing Buffer Information Dell Networking OS Behavior: If you attempt to apply a buffer profile to a non-existent port-pipe, Dell Networking OS displays the following message: %DIFFSERV-2-DSA_BUFF_CARVING_INVALID_PORT_SET: Invalid FP port-set 2 for linecard 2. Valid range of port-set is <0-1>. However, the configuration still appears in the running-config.
Dell Networking OS Behavior: After you configure buffer-profile global 1Q, the message displays during every bootup. Only one reboot is required for the configuration to take effect; afterward you may ignore this bootup message.
[1Q|4Q] If the default buffer profile dynamic is active, Dell Networking OS displays an error message instructing you to remove the default configuration using the no buffer-profile global command. Sample Buffer Profile Configuration The two general types of network environments are sustained data transfers and voice/data.

To undo this command, use the no logging coredump server command. Mini Core Dumps Dell Networking OS supports mini core dumps on the application and kernel crashes. Application and kernel mini core dumps are always enabled. The mini core dumps contain the stack space and some other minimal information that you can use to debug a crash.
