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 "Configuring SMDS" chapter in the Wide-Area Networking Configuration Guide.
Use the following variation of the arp global configuration command to enable Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) entries for static routing over the SMDS network. Use the no form of this command to disable this capability.
arp ip-address smds-address smds| ip-address | IP address of the remote router. |
| smds-address | 12-digit SMDS address in the dotted notation nnnn.nnnn.nnnn (48 bits long). |
| smds | Enables ARP for SMDS. |
Disabled
Global configuration
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.3.
This command requires a 12-digit (48-bit) dotted-format SMDS address. It does not support 15-digit SMDS addresses.
The following example creates a static ARP entry that maps the IP address 172.20.173.28 to the SMDS address C141.5797.1313 on interface serial 0:
interface serial 0
arp 172.20.173.28 C141.5797.1313 smds

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
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.
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.
 | Caution The Cisco MCI card has buffer limitations that prevent setting the MTU size higher than 2048, and the HSSI card has buffer limitations that prevent setting the MTU size higher than 4500. Configuring higher settings can cause inconsistencies and performance problems. |
The following example shows how to configure the SMDS service on serial interface 0:

To define a logical subinterface on a serial interface to support multiple logical IP subnetworks 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 to 255. |
This command has no default values.
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.
Use this command only for routers that need knowledge of multiple IP networks. Other routers can be configured with information only about their own networks.
The following example configures serial interface 2 with multipoint logical subinterface 1:

To specify the SMDS individual address for a particular interface, use the smds address interface configuration command. To remove the address from the configuration file, use the no form of this command.
smds address smds-address| smds-address | Individual address provided by the SMDS service provider. This address is protocol independent. |
No address is specified.
Interface configuration
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.
Addresses are entered in the Cisco SMDS configuration software using an E prefix for multicast addresses and a C prefix for unicast addresses. Cisco IOS 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 to broadcast 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
To enable the Data Exchange Interface (DXI) version 3.2 support, use the smds dxi interface configuration command. To disable the DXI 3.2 support, use the no form of this command.
smds dxiThis command has no arguments or keywords.
Enabled
Interface configuration
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.
Adding this command to the configuration enables the DXI version 3.2 mechanism and encapsulates SMDS packets in a DXI frame before they are transmitted. DXI 3.2 adds an additional 4 bytes to the SMDS packet header to communicate with the SMDS data service unit (SDSU). These bytes specify the frame type. The interface expects all packets to arrive with DXI encapsulation.
The DXI 3.2 support also includes the heartbeat process as specified in the SIG-TS-001/1991 standard, revision 3.2. The heartbeat (active process) is enabled when both DXI and keepalives are enabled on the interface. The echo (passive process) is enabled when DXI is enabled on the interface. The heartbeat mechanism automatically generates a heartbeat poll frame every 10 seconds. This default value can be changed with the keepalive command.
The Interim Local Management Interface (ILMI) is not supported.
Fast switching of DXI frames is also supported.
The following example enables DXI 3.2 on interface HSSI 0:
interface hssi 0

You can use the master indexes or search online to find documentation of related commands.
To enable dynamic address mapping for IPX over SMDS, use the smds glean interface configuration command. To disable dynamic address mapping for IPX over SMDS, use the no form of this command.
smds glean protocol [timeout-value] [broadcast]| protocol | Protocol type. Only IPX is supported. |
| timeout-value | (Optional) Time to live (TTL) value. Value can be from 1 to 65535 minutes. The default is 5 minutes. This value indicates how long a gleaned dynamic map is stored in the SMDS map table. |
| broadcast | (Optional) Marks the gleaned protocol address as a candidate for broadcast packets. All broadcast requests are sent to the unicast SMDS address. |
Disabled
Interface configuration
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 11.1.
The smds glean command uses incoming packets to dynamically map SMDS addresses to higher-level protocol addresses. Therefore the need for static map configuration for the IPX protocol is optional rather than mandatory. However, any static map configuration overrides the dynamic maps.
If a map is gleaned and it already exists as a dynamic map, the timer for the dynamic map is reset to the default value or the user-specified value.
The following example enables dynamic address mapping for IPX on interface serial 0 and sets the time to live (TTL) to 14 minutes:
interface serial 0
encapsulation smds
smds address c141.5797.1313.FFFF
smds multicast ipx e1800.0999.9999.FFFF
smds glean ipx 14
| protocol | Protocol type. See Table 24 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
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.
When configuring DECnet, you must enter all four DEC keywords (decnet, decnet_router-L1, decnet_router-L2, and decnet_node) in the configuration.
Table 24 lists the high-level protocols supported by the smds multicast command.
| Keyword | Protocol |
|---|---|
| aarp | AppleTalk Address Resolution Protocol |
| appletalk | AppleTalk |
| arp | Address Resolution Protocol |
| bridge | Transparent bridging |
| clns | International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Connectionless Network Service (CLNS) |
| clns_es | Multicast address for all CLNS end systems |
| clns_is | Multicast address for all CLNS intermediate systems |
| decnet | DECnet |
| decnet_node | DECnet multicast address for all end systems |
| decnet_router-L1 | DECnet multicast address for all Level 1 (intra-area) routers |
| decnet_router-L2 | DECnet multicast address for all Level 2 (interarea) routers |
| ip | Internet Protocol (IP) |
| ipx | Novell IPX |
| vines | Banyan VINES |
| xns | Xerox Network Systems (XNS) |
For IP, the IP NETwork and MASK fields are no longer required. The Cisco IOS software accepts these arguments, but ignores the values. These were required commands for the previous multiple logical IP subnetworks configuration. The software continues to accept the arguments to allow for backward compatibility, but ignores the contents.
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
To map the SMDS address to a multicast address, use the smds multicast arp interface configuration command. Use the no form of this 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. |
No mapping is defined.
Interface configuration
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.
This command is used only when an Address Resolution Protocol (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, broadcast ARPs are sent to all multicast IP SMDS multicast addresses. If the optional ARP multicast address is missing, each entered IP multicast command is used for broadcasting.
The following example configures broadcast ARP messages:
interface serial 0
smds multicast arp E180.0999.9999.2222
You can use the master indexes or search online to find documentation of related commands.
To enable spanning tree updates, use the smds multicast bridge interface configuration command. Use the no form of this command to disable this function.
smds multicast bridge smds-address| smds-address | SMDS multicast address in E.164 format. |
No multicast SMDS address is defined. Spanning tree updates are disabled for transparent bridging across SMDS networks.
Interface configuration
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.
To allow transparent bridging of packets across serial and HSSI interfaces in an SMDS network, the SMDS interface must be added to an active bridge group. Also, standard bridging commands are necessary to enable bridging on an SMDS interface.
When the smds multicast bridge command is added to the configuration, broadcast packets are encapsulated with the specified SMDS multicast address configured for bridging. Two broadcast ARP packets are sent to the multicast address. One is sent with a standard (SMDS) ARP encapsulation, while the other is sent with the ARP packet encapsulated in an 802.3 MAC header. The native ARP is sent as a regular ARP broadcast.
Cisco's implementation of IEEE 802.6i transparent bridging for SMDS supports 802.3, 802.5, and FDDI frame formats. The router can accept frames with or without frame check sequence (FCS). Fast-switched transparent bridging is the default and is not configurable. If a packet cannot be fast switched, it is process switched.
In Cisco IOS Release 10.2 software (or earlier), bridging over multiple logical IP subnetworks is not supported. Bridging of IP packets in a multiple logical IP subnetworks environment is unpredictable.
In the following example, all broadcast bridge packets are sent to the configured SMDS multicast address:
interface hssi 0
encapsulation smds
smds address C120.1111.2222.FFFF
ip address 172.16.0.0 255.255.255.0
smds multicast bridge E180.0999.9999.FFFF
bridge-group 5
You can use the master indexes or search online to find documentation of related commands.
bridge-group
To map an SMDS group address to a secondary IP address, use the smds multicast ip interface configuration command. Use the no form of this 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 default to the primary address of the interface if they are left out of the configuration.
Interface configuration
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.
This command allows a single SMDS interface to be treated as multiple logical IP subnetworks. If taking advantage of the multiple logical IP subnetworks support in SMDS, you can use more than one multicast address on the SMDS interface (by entering multiple commands). 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 by means of the multicast address. By sending broadcasts in this manner, the router is not required to replicate broadcasts messages to every remote host.
In addition, the higher-level protocols such as Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (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 association allows the command to be backward compatible with earlier versions of the software.
If an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) multicast address is missing, each entered IP multicast command is 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 with two subinterfaces to support two different IP subnets with different multicast addresses to each network:
interface serial 2/0
encapsulation smds
smds address C120.1111.2222.4444
interface serial 2/0.1 multipoint
smds addr c111.3333.3333.3333
ip address 2.2.2.1 255.0.0.0
smds multicast ip e222.2222.2222.2222
smds enable-arp
interface serial 2/0.2 multipoint
smds addr c111.2222.3333.3333.3333
ip address 2.3.3.3 255.0.0.0
smds multicast ip E180.0999.9999.FFFF
smds enable-arp
You can use the master indexes or search online to find documentation of related commands.
To configure a static map between an individual SMDS address and a higher-level protocol address, use the smds static-map interface configuration command. Use the no form of this command with the appropriate arguments to remove the map.
smds static-map protocol protocol-address smds-address [broadcast]| protocol | Higher-level protocol. It can be one of the following values: appletalk, clns, decnet, ip, ipx, vines, or xns. |
| 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 are sent to the unicast SMDS address. |
No mapping is defined.
Interface configuration
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.
The smds static-map command provides pseudobroadcasting by allowing the use of broadcasts on those hosts that cannot support SMDS multicast addresses.
The following example illustrates how to enable pseudobroadcasting. The router at address C120.4444.9999 will receive a copy of the broadcast request because the broadcast keyword is specified with the smds static-map command. The host at address 172.16.1.15 is incapable of receiving multicast packets. The multicasting is simulated with this feature.
interface hssi 0
encapsulation smds
smds address C120.1111.2222.FFFF

smds enable-arp
The following example illustrates how to enable multicasting. In addition to IP and ARP requests to E100.0999.9999, the router at address C120.4444.9999 will also receive a copy of the multicast request. The host at address 172.16.1.15 is incapable of receiving broadcast packets.
