Use the commands in this chapter to configure the Switched Multimegabit Data Service (SMDS), a wide-area networking service offered by some Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOCs) and MCI.
For SMDS configuration information and examples, refer to the chapter "Configuring SMDS" in the Access and Communication Servers Configuration Guide.
Use the following variation of the arp interface configuration command to enable ARP entries for static routing over the SMDS network. Use the no arp command to disable this capability.
arp ip-address smds-address smds
ip-address | IP address. |
smds-address | SMDS address. |
smds | Enables ARP for SMDS. |
Disabled
Interface configuration
The following example sets a static ARP entry for routing from IP network 131.108.173.28 to SMDS address C141.5797.1313 on serial interface 0:
interface serial 0
arp 131.108.173.28 C141.5797.1313.FFFF smds
smds enable-arp
Use the encapsulation smds interface configuration command to enable SMDS service on the desired interface.
encapsulation smdsThis command has no arguments or keywords.
Disabled
Interface configuration
The interface to which this command applies must be a serial interface. All subsequent SMDS configuration commands apply only to an interface with encapsulation SMDS.
The following example shows how to configure the SMDS service on serial interface 0:
interface serial 0
encapsulation smds
A dagger (†) indicates that the command is documented in another chapter.
mtu †
To define a logical subinterface on a serial interface to support multiple logical IP subnetworks (Multi-LIS) over SMDS, use the interface serial multipoint interface configuration command.
interface serial interface.subinterface multipoint
interface | Interface number. |
subinterface | Number for this subinterface; values in the range 0 through 255. |
This command has no default values.
Use this command only for communication servers that need knowledge of multiple IP networks. Other communication servers can be configured with information only about their own networks.
The following example configures serial interface 2 with multipoint logical subinterface 1.
interface serial 2.1 multipoint

Use the smds address interface configuration command to specify the SMDS individual address for a particular interface. Use the no smds address command to remove the address from the configuration file.
smds address smds-address
smds-address | Individual address provided by the SMDS service provider. This address is protocol independent. For more information, see the "Usage Guidelines" section. |
No address is specified.
Interface configuration
All addresses for SMDS service are assigned by the service provider and can be assigned to individuals and groups.
Addresses are entered in the Cisco SMDS configuration software using an E prefix for Multicast addresses and a C prefix for Unicast addresses. Our software expects the addresses to be entered in E.164 format, which is 64 bits. The first 4 bits are the address type and the remaining 60 bits are the address. If the first 4 bits are 1100 (0xC), the address is a unicast SMDS address, which is the address of an individual SMDS host. If the first 4 bits are 1110 (0xE), the address is a multicast SMDS address, which is used when broadcasting a packet to multiple end points. The 60 bits of the address are in binary-coded decimal (BCD) format. Each 4 bits of the address field presents a single telephone number digit, allowing for up to 15 digits. At a minimum, you must specify at least
11 digits (44 bits). Unused bits at the end of this field are filled with ones.
The following example specifies an individual address in Ethernet-style notation:
interface serial 0
smds address c141.5797.1313.FFFF
Use the smds dxi interface configuration command to enable the DXI 3.2 support. Use the no smds dxi command to disable the DXI 3.2 support.
smds dxiThis command has no arguments or keywords.
Enabled
Interface configuration
Adding this command to the configuration enables the Data Exchange Interface (DXI) version 3.2 mechanism and encapsulates SMDS packets in a DXI frame before they are transmitted. DXI 3.2 adds an additional four bytes to the SMDS packet header to communicate with the SDSU. These bytes specify the frame type. The interface will expect all packets to arrive with DXI encapsulation.
Fast switching of DXI frames is also supported as of this software release.
The following example enables DXI 3.2 on HSSI interface 0:
interface hssi 0
encapsulation smds
smds dxi
smds address C120.1111.2222.FFFF
ip address 131.108.1.30 255.255.255.0
smds multicast ip E180.0999.9999
smds enable-arp
A dagger (†) indicates that the command is documented in another chapter.
keepalive †
Use the smds enable-arp interface configuration command to enable the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP). The multicast address for ARP must be set before this command is issued. Once ARP has been enabled, use the no smds enable-arp command to disable the interface.
smds enable-arpThis command has no arguments or keywords.
Disabled
Interface configuration
The following example enables the dynamic ARP routing table:
interface serial 0
ip address 131.108.1.30 255.255.255.0
smds multicast IP E180.0999.9999.2222
smds enable-arp
arp
protocol-type | Protocol type. See Table 10-5 in the "Usage Guidelines" section for a list of supported protocols and their keywords. |
smds-address | SMDS address. Because SMDS does not incorporate broadcast addressing, a group address for a particular protocol must be defined to serve the broadcast function. |
No mapping is defined.
Interface configuration
Table 10-5 lists the high-level protocols supported by the smds multicast command.
| Keyword | Protocol |

The following example maps the IP broadcast address to the SMDS group address E180.0999.9999:
interface serial 0
smds multicast IP E180.0999.9999.FFFF
Use the smds multicast arp interface configuration command to map the SMDS address to a multicast address. Use the no smds multicast arp command to disable this feature.
smds multicast arp smds-address [ip-address mask]
smds-address | SMDS address in E.164 format |
ip-address | (Optional) IP address |
mask | (Optional) Subnet mask for the IP address |
Disabled
Interface configuration
This command is only used when an ARP server is present on a network. When broadcast ARPs are sent, SMDS first attempts to send the packet to all multicast ARP SMDS addresses. If none exist in the configuration, they are sent to all multicast IP SMDS multicast addresses. If the optional ARP multicast address is missing, each entered IP multicast command will be used for broadcasting.
The following example configures broadcast ARP messages:
interface serial 0
smds multicast arp E180.0999.9999.2222
smds multicast ip
Use the smds multicast ip interface configuration command to map an SMDS group address to a secondary IP address. Use the no smds multicast ip command to remove the address map.
smds multicast ip smds-address [ip-address mask]
smds-address | SMDS address in E.164 format |
ip-address | (Optional) IP address |
mask | (Optional) Subnet mask for the IP address |
The IP address and mask will default to the primary address of the interface if they are left out of the configuration.
Interface configuration
This command allows a single SMDS interface to be treated as multiple logical IP subnets (MultiLIS). If taking advantage of the MultiLIS support in SMDS, you can use more than one multicast address on the SMDS interface, that is, multiple commands can be entered. However, each smds multicast ip command entry must be associated with a different IP address on the SMDS interface.
Broadcasts can be sent on the SMDS interface using the multicast address. By sending broadcasts in this manner, the communication server is not required to replicate broadcast messages to every remote host.
In addition, the higher-level protocols such as OSPF and IS-IS can use the multicast capability by sending one update packet or routing packet to the multicast address.
If the optional IP address and mask arguments are not present, the SMDS address and multicast address are associated with the primary IP address of the interface. This allows the command to be backward compatible with earlier versions of the software.
If an ARP multicast address is missing, each entered IP multicast command will be used for broadcasting. The ARP multicast command has the same format as the IP multicast command and is typically used only when an ARP server is present in the network.
The following example configures an interface that supports two different subnets with different multicast addresses to each network. The first multicast configuration command associates the multicast address with the primary IP address and mask of the interface.
interface hssi 0
encapsulation smds
smds address C120.1111.2222.FFFF
ip address 131.108.1.30 255.255.255.0

smds multicast ip E180.0999.9999.FFFF
smds multicast ip E180.0333.3333.FFFF 131.108.5.0 255.255.255.0
smds enable-arp
smds multicast arp
Use the smds static-map interface configuration command to configure a static map between an individual SMDS address and a higher-level protocol address. Use the no smds static-map command with the appropriate arguments to remove the map.
smds static-map protocol-type protocol-address smds-address [broadcast]
protocol-type | Protocol type. It can be one of the following values: ip or ipx. |
protocol-address | Address of the higher-level protocol. |
smds-address | SMDS address, to complete the mapping. |
broadcast | (Optional) Marks the specified protocol address as a candidate for broadcast packets. All broadcast requests will be sent to the unicast SMDS address. |
No mapping is defined.
Interface configuration
The smds static-map command provides pseudo-broadcasting by allowing the use of broadcasts on those hosts that cannot support SMDS multicast addresses.
The following example illustrates how to enable pseudo-broadcasting. In addition to broadcasting IP and ARP requests to E180.0999.9999, the device at address C120.4444.9999 will also receive a copy of the broadcast request. The host at address 131.108.1.15 is incapable of receiving multicast packets. Multicasting is simulated with this feature.
