Super User Commands

Introduction

This chapter contains detailed descriptions of the Cisco WAN Switching software Release 8.2.5 super user commands. The Cisco WAN Switching super user command descriptions appear in alphabetical order. Access to these commands requires user-privilege level 0 (zero).

Caution Use of these commands should be restricted to Cisco personnel and other qualified users, such as System Administrators. Do not distribute this information to casual users because improper use of some super user commands may lead to system malfunction or complete failure.

General Information


Note Access to the super user commands (privilege level 0) requires a different login and password than access to commands with privilege levels 1 through 6.

Because the privilege level for all super user commands is 0, the privilege level does not appear in the command definition.

Table 1-1 lists the Cisco WAN Switching level 0 (super user) commands in alphabetical order. The table also lists the nodes on which each command is available and whether you can include the command in a job. To access these commands, type in SuperUser at the login prompt. Enter the super user password and the password prompt. To exit a command at any point, press the Delete key.

The screen examples in this chapter are based on a network containing an IPX, IGX, or BPX or any combination of these nodes. For detailed descriptions of commands requiring a user-privilege level in the range 1-6, refer to the Cisco WAN Switching Command Reference.

Command Help

The StrataView Plus (SV+) workstation provides on-line help for all IPX/IGX/BPX commands. On-line help can be accessed through the StrataView Plus FrameViewer icon. On-line help provides an abbreviated version of the information in this document, including the command function, syntax, and attributes. Hypertext links allow you to navigate through the various commands.

Commands

The pages in the remainder of this chapter contain the description of the super user commands in alphabetical order. Whenever applicable, the command description includes a description of the options and at least one example of a typical screen display for the command.


Note Due to space considerations, some screens show "SV+" in place of StrataView Plus, the trademarked name of this Cisco product.

This manual is valid only for Release 8.2.5 or later system software. Commands that apply to older cards used with older software or that have been replaced by newer cards are not represented here. Refer to the Rel. 6.2 IPX SuperUser Commands User Guide for commands that operate on the older cards or their newer replacements.


Note Beginning with Release 7.0, you can substitute a trunk-related command for a corresponding packet line command. For example, you can use the dsptrkcon command in place of dspplncon.

All commands that work on an IPX also work on an IGX.

burnfwrev (Burn Firmware Image into Card(s)

The burnfwrev command burns a new firmware image into a specific card.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dspfwrev, getfwrev

Syntax
burnfwrev <image name> <slot number>

<image name>

specifies the name of the firmware image to burn. Image names are generally in all capital letters and are case-sensitive when being entered.

<slot number>

specifies the shelf slot where the card to burn is located. Specifying slot 0 will burn all cards of the appropriate type at the local node.



Function

This command is used to burn (load) a firmware image into the memory of a specific IPX/IGX/BPX card. Before using this command, the firmware image must have already been loaded into controller card's memory by the getfwrev command. A few seconds after issuing this command, the system displays a screen similar to Figure 1-1. A few moments later, the burn address column will start to indicate the addresses that are being "burned". When finished, the status will change to "Complete".

After all cards at a node have been updated with this command, issue a getfwrev 0.0 node name command. This command will clear the firmware image from the controller card's buffer area, allowing the buffer to be used for other purposes. Use the dspfwrev command to display the firmware image status on the controller card at any other time after the burn has been completed.

At the super user level (0), this command can only be used to change the revision level of a card's firmware. If the firmware revision results in a new model number for the card, only a user with the Cisco privilege level will be able to burn the firmware image.

clrcderrs (Clear Detailed Card Errors)

The clrcderrs command clears the history of card failures (errors) associated with the specified slot.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dspcderrs, prtcderrs

Syntax
clrcderrs <slot number | *>

<slot number | *>

specifies the slot number to clear. A "*" can be entered to clear all cards.



Function

This command clears the history of card failures associated with the specified slot. When you enter this command system responds with Slot Number or *. After you enter the command, the system asks you to confirm that it is OK to clear this data.

For example, to clear the data from the FRM card in slot 3, enter the command illustrated in Figure 1-3. This screen also illustrates the card's stored data.

clrcnf (Clear Configuration Memory)

The clrcnf command clears the configuration memory at the current node and resets the node.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: No Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

loadcnf, runcnf, savecnf

Syntax
clrcnf

Function

The clcnf command erases most network configuration data. This configuration data includes connections, trunks, circuit lines, and so on, for the local node. You may need to use the clcnf command when you upgrade the network with a new software release or when you move a node. Before the command executes, a warning and a confirmation prompt. Figure 1-4 illustrates a typical screen.

This command should be used only on a node that has not yet been placed in service or when the network configuration has been previously saved so it can be quickly reloaded. The configuration can be saved in one of several ways:

Caution Use the clrcnf command with great care. It is best not to use it unless specifically instructed to do so by Cisco TRT as it can make the node unreachable to the network.

Figure 1-4: Clrcnf—Clear Node Configuration *** Warning: *** This command clears the configuration memory and resets the Node. This Command: clrcnf Are you sure (y/n)?

clrfpevt (Clear FastPAD Event Reporting)

The clrfpevt command disables the reporting of FastPAD events.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Lock: Node Type: IPX, IGX

cnfbmpparm (Configure Priority Bumping Parameters)

The cnfbmpparm command configures the parameters for the optional priority bumping feature.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dspbmpst

Syntax
cnfbmpparm <index> <value>

<index>

specifies the index number of the parameter to change. Priority bumping parameters are listed in Table 1-2.

<value>

specifies the value for the parameter.



Function

This command enables the optional priority bumping feature and sets its various parameters. Network-wide values should only be changed when all nodes are reachable. This command should be used carefully as the resolution of conflicting values when networks are joined can cause difficulties. Table 1-2 lists the various parameters of the priority bumping feature. Figure 1-7 illustrates a typical screen.

CDP Card Parameters

cnfcftst (Configure Communication Fail Test Pattern)

The cnfcftst command changes the configuration of the test pattern used for communication failure testing.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dspcftst

Syntax
cnfcftst

Function

The communication fail test pattern is used to periodically test for failure of nodes to communicate with each other. This test pattern is also used to recover from communication fail conditions. A communication fail is defined as a loss of controller communication over one or more trunks to a particular node. A communication fail differs from a communication break condition in that the node may be reachable over other paths. The communication fail test is used to test the failed trunk for proper controller traffic.

This command allows the user to configure the communication fail test pattern byte by byte. It defaults to a pattern of four bytes of ones followed by four bytes of zeros. Varying the length of the test pattern makes the communications test more or less rigorous. Changing the characters determines the pattern sensitivity for strings of less than 14 bytes.

The dspcftst command displays the current communication test pattern. The parameters used for declaring and clearing communication fails are set by the cnfnodeparm command. Figure 1-8 illustrates a typical screen.

Channel Statistic Types

cnfchts (Configure Channel Timestamp)

The cnfchts command configures a pre-aging parameter for data channels. Applicable cards are the SDP, LPD, LDM, and HDM. Applicable traffic is time-stamped data.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

cnfcdpparm

Syntax
cnfchts <channel(s)> <pre-age>

<channel(s)>

Specifies the data channel.

<pre-age>

Specifies a value in 250-microsecond increments to go in the age field in the header of a time-stamped.



Function

This command configures the pre-age parameter for data channels. The pre-age parameter specifies the initial age of a time-stamped packet. With a non-zero pre-age, the packet has less time to wait at the destination before it reaches the Max Time Stamped Packet Age and is taken out of the ingress queue. (Data channels with the greater pre-age value are processed sooner.) However, if the pre-age value is too high because of queuing delays in the network, packets could be discarded because they appear too old at the destination.

Enter a value for Pre-Age that is a multiple of 250 microseconds. (If not a multiple of 250 microseconds, the system rounds the value down to the nearest multiple of 250 microseconds.) The default value is 0. Acceptable values are in the range 0 to the Max Time Stamped Packet Age (set by the cnfsysparm command). After you finish entering this command, the screen as in the example. After you change a timestamp, the connection should be rerouted or restarted for the new value to take effect.


Note You can see the value for Pre-Age in the screen display for the dspchcnf command. If dspchcnf is entered at a user-privilege level below super user level, the Pre-Age parameter does not appear in the dspchcnf output.

cnfmxbutil (Configure MUXBUS Utilization)

The cnfmxbutil command configures the IPX MUXBUS utilization factor for each FRP.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

none

Syntax
cnfmxbutil <slot number> <percentage>

<slot number>

specifies the slot number of the associated FRP card.

<percentage>

specifies the percent of MUXBUS bandwidth to allocate.



Function

This command configures the MUXBUS utilization factor. A certain amount of MUXBUS bandwidth is allocated by system software for each FRP in an IPX node. Since the maximum data rate for an FRP is 2 Mbps, this is also the maximum amount of MUXBUS bandwidth reserved for the FRP.

In many applications, each of the four FRP ports is configured for a large number of 56 or 64 Kbps connections. System software adds up the bandwidth required for all the connections, multiplies by 121% to reserve extra bandwidth for overhead, then subtracts this amount from the total available MUXBUS bandwidth.

However, statistical full utilization is not often required on ports with a large number of connections and the MUXBUS bandwidth reserved may be reduced further. In nodes equipped with a T3 or E3 ATMT card, much of the MUXBUS bandwidth may be assigned to the ATM trunk and the remaining MUXBUS bandwidth may need to be allocated carefully.

Prior to release 7.1, the MUXBUS utilization factor was configurable only on a per-node basis using the cnfnodeparm command. All FRPs had to be configured the same. This command permits assigning the utilization factor for each FRP in the node on a slot by slot basis.

See Figure 1-28 for a sample screen. N/A is displayed for all slots not equipped with an FRP. Once the slot is selected, the system displays the message "Enter Utilization Factor". The allowable range is from 1 to 250% with a default of 121%. The extra 21% for the default is used to cover the overhead involved in encapsulating the frame relay frame in the FastPacket or ATM cell.

Associated Commands

none

Syntax
cnfnwip <IPAddr> <IPSubnetMask>

<IPAddr>

IP address of the node: the format is nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn, where nnn can be 1-255

<IPSubnetMask>

subnet mask: the format is nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn



An example of this command is:

  cnfnwip 199.35.96.217 255.255.255.0
  where 199.35.96.217 is the IP address, and 255.255.255.0 is the subnet mask.
Function

The network IP address and subnet mask support statistics collection for StrataView Plus. The cnfnwip command defines the IP address the system uses to pass messages between StrataView Plus and the node. The Statistics Master process in StrataView Plus collects statistics. The Statistics Manager requests and receives statistics using TFTP Get and Put messages. These TFTP messages pass between the node and the Statistics Master using IP Relay. (See the cnfstatmast description for details on setting the Statistics Master address.)

<trk number>

specifies the trunk to configure (can be a virtual trunk on a BNI).

<parm index>

specifies the parameter to change.

<parm value>

specifies the value of the parameter.



Function

Use cnftrkparm to optimize a network for particular traffic mixes. The cnftrkparm command configures any of the trunk-specific parameters associated with a trunk card. It applies to either a FastPacket trunk ("packet line") or an ATM trunk. For ATM trunks, cnftrkparm applies to both physical and virtual trunks. Spacer queues indicated for the CLP and EFCN thresholds pertain to AIT and BTM cards.

When the system receives this command and trunk number, it displays the configurable parameters with an index number for each. The parameters vary with the trunk type, as the subsequent figures and tables show. Table 1-18 , Table 1-19 , and Table 1-20 list the parameters for trunks carrying FastPackets and ATM cells, respectively. Figure 1-36, Figure 1-37, and Figure 1-38 show the response when you specify a FastPacket line or trunk.

This command is also used to reconfigure trunk queue depths to meet the CEPT requirement of a maximum end-to-end delay of 10 ms. To reconfigure a trunk queue depth, enter the following:

cnftrkparm <trk number> <parm index> <parm value>

Where: <trk number> specifies the trunk to be configured.
<parm index> is 2 (which corresponds to the NTS queue).
<parm value> is 7 (which is the maximum allowable queue depth).

Syntax
cnfvchparm <channel(s)> <parameters>

Specifies the voice channel number(s) to configure.

parameters

Specifies values for the voice parameters (Table 1-23 lists parameters).



Function

The cnfvchparm command specifies voice card parameters for:

Table 1-23 lists the voice parameters you can specify with cnfvchparm. Table 1-24 lists some calculated examples for a sample delay for VAD and non-VAD connections.

Different versions of firmware for the CDP and CVM present different ways of specifying the level of background noise you can select to cover awkward periods of silence at the ends of voice connections. For cards with Model A firmware, you specify the actual level in dBm (deciBels) or dBrnC0. For Model A cards, you can specify the noise levels with a granularity of 0.1 dBm or dBrnC0. For cards with Model B firmware, you enter a number that maps to a noise level. Table 1-25 lists the numbers that correspond to the levels of injected background noise for Model B firmware.

The screen displays in Example 1 and Example 2 illustrate cnfvchparm applied to a Model A CDP and a Model B CDP, respectively. The display for Model A cards shows the deciBel level of the injected noise. The display for the Model B shows the number that corresponds to a deciBel (or dBrnC0) level of background noise.

After you enter cnfvchparm, the system displays "Enter channel(s)." After you enter the parameters, the system requests confirmation by displaying "Reconfigure active CDP channels? (y/n)."

Without the cnfvchparm command, the other ways to re-configure channels are:


Table 1-23: VF Channel Parameters

A8 (H)

Sample delay for non-VAD connections

Same for non-VAD circuits.

01 (H)

Background Noise

Sets the level of background noise that the far-end voice card adds to the connection while it is receiving no voice packets. For Model A firmware, you specify the levels in actual decibels in 0.1 dB increments. For Model B firmware, see Table 1-25 for levels.

2 (H)

High Pass Filter mode

Enables/disables high-pass filter to assist in VAD and modem detect.

V.25 modem detect mode

Enables/disables V.25 modem-detect mode. The default is enabled with "detect-64K," which specifies that a 2100 Hz tone indicates the presence of V.25-type modem. The options with V.25 modem detect are "disable," "32" for 32K upgrade, and "64" for 64K upgrade. Enter "32" for fax transmission at 32 Kbps FAX Optimized ADPCM. Use the default "64" for fax transmission at 64 kbps PCM.

diagbus (Diagnose Failed Bus)

The diagbus command is used to diagnose a failed IPX MUXBUS.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock:Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

none

Syntax
diagbus

Function

This command runs detailed diagnostics to isolate Muxbus problems to a failed card or bus. It is used when a minor alarm is indicated and displaying the alarm (dspalms) screen indicates the message "bus needs diagnosis".

This command can only be run locally with a terminal connected directly to the CONTROL port or remotely from a modem connection. It can not be executed through a VT (virtual terminal) command or when the node's CONTROL port is configured for StrataView mode.

Caution This command may cause a major disruption in service on all lines and connections and should only be run at a time when this can be tolerated.

Performing this test can result in a major disruption in the operation of the node. It should not be performed except as a last resort. To fully isolate the failure may require manual removal of cards, including controller cards etc. For this reason, the command may not be executed over a Virtual Terminal connection.

If the test is successful, and no problems found, the system displays:

  Both buses are OK

Otherwise, the system displays various messages to the operator for additional steps to perform in isolating the problem. These messages depend on the results of the diagnostics testing.

Table 1-31: Display Reroute Statistics
Statistic Description

Number of Completed Routes

This is the total number of connections routed since the NPC rebuilt.

Number of Failed Routes

This is the number of attempted reroutes that failed for any reason.

Number of Collisions

When a reroute is in progress, the initiating node locks all nodes on the route until the rerouting process is complete. If another node attempts to reroute through one of the locked nodes, a collision is reported and the second node must retry after a delay.

Max. # of Consec. Collisions

Is the count of consecutive collisions as defined above.

Max/Avg Secs To Select Route

Time taken within the initiating node to select a new route.

Max/Avg Secs To Perform Route

Time taken to contact and lock the nodes on the new route and perform the rerouting process.

Avg Secs to Route a Conn:

Time to perform a reroute divided by the average number of connections in a bundle.

% of Collisions/Rrt Attempt

Another statistic derived from the number of collisions and the number of reroute attempts.

Max Secs To NOT find Route

Similar to "max secs to select a route" except that the algorithm finished and no route was found.

Number of Routes not found

Number of routes not found in the rerouting process. This parameter updates periodically as a heartbeat to check for activity.

# of Rrts with rrt req_bit set

A measure of the connections awaiting rerouting. When rrt_req bit is set, indicates a reroute is not totally successful or trunk deletions or loading additions mean connections must be rerouted. Cleared by rerouting the connection.

Address of Forced Rrt Counts

A NPC memory address for database information.

Max routes checked in search

Maximum no. of PLNs examined in any one search for a new route.

Max good rts checked in search

Maximum no. of possible routes found before the search was terminated. Should be 1.

# our lns rmvd from under us

Measure the number of changes to topology and loading that occurred while rerouting was in progress.

# lines rmvd out from under us

Function

This command displays the current signalling state received at the node from the specified voice channel. The status of the transmit and receive A and B signalling bits (for DS1 trunks) or A, B, C and D signalling bits (for E1 trunks) are displayed as a 0 or 1. The status of the bits (0 or 1) depends on the signalling type utilized on the connection displayed. The transmit direction of transmission is towards the remote node; the receive direction is towards the local circuit line.

The dspsig command can be used to verify the connection signalling type. Figure 1-77 illustrates a typical screen. If you compare the A/B bit states on-hook and off-hook with those shown in the dspchcnf command, you will note that the node passes signalling straight through. The signalling definition is only important for monitoring the on-hook/off-hook state and setting conditioning patterns.

The dsptrkstatcnf command displays the enabled statistics for a trunk.) Figure 1-85 displays a statistic history for virtual trunk 1.1.1. The statistic is TX ABR Overflow Dropped Cells. This is statistic number 169, which execution of dsptrkstatcnf shows as enabled for this trunk. (If a disabled statistic is selected, a message stating this appears above the command line prompt.) The entered bucket interval is 0 minutes, which means that only the preceding 60 seconds worth of gathered data for number 169 appears.


Note Enter the owner in all capital letters. You may have to enter owner "auto" in all capital letters.

dsputl (Display Utilization)

The dsputl command displays the utilization factor for all voice connections on a specified circuit line.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: No Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

dspdutl

Syntax
dsputl <bslot> [clear]

<bslot>

specifies the shelf back slot number of the circuit line.

[clear]

Directs the controller card to clear the utilization counters after being displayed.



Function

This command displays the actual percentage utilization for all voice connections on a single circuit line specified by the back slot (bslot) number. The percentage is calculated by dividing the number of packets transmitted over the total number of packets allocated to the specified channel. Only transmit packet rates are used. If percentage of actual utilization exceeds the configured utilization the channel appears in reverse video.

Figure 1-86 illustrates a typical display. In this example, the connections from 11.1 to 11.11 use VAD and the connections from 11.12 to 11.17 do not. The connections using VAD do not use any network bandwidth (0 utilization) until the connection is used. The other connections utilize the full bandwidth (100% utilization) even though they may be idle.

Use the dspdutl command to display utilization for data channels.

forcerev (Force Revision)

The forcerev command forces a software revision to be sent down a trunk to a remote node.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dsprevs, loadrev

Syntax
forcerev <line number> <primary/secondary> <revision>

<line number>

specifies the trunk number used to send the revision.

<primary/secondary>

specifies which revision is to be sent.

<revision>

specifies the software revision to be forced down the line.



Function

This command sends a change revision message blindly down the specified trunk from the local node to the remote node. This allows primary revisions to be changed regardless of communication breaks and unreachable nodes. Usage of this command should only be necessary if a problem results in inconsistent revisions throughout a network.

Figure 1-87 illustrates an example screen. If the local node does not have the SW revision specified, the system will display "Unavailable X.X" as indicated. Use the getfwrev command to load the desired software revision into the node. Use the dsprevs command to display the revisions available on each node in the network.

Caution Use this command only when requested by Cisco and under Cisco supervision.

getfwrev (Get Firmware Revision)

The getfwrev command gets and loads a firmware image from StrataView, StrataView Plus, or a remote node into the specified node(s).

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

burnfwrev, dspfwrev, dspdnld

Syntax
getfwrev <image name> <nodename>

<image name>

specifies the name assigned to the firmware revision. Image names are generally in all capital letters and are case-sensitive when being entered.

<nodename>

specifies the node on which to load the revision.



Function

This command gets and loads a firmware revision image into the specified node's NPC or NPM memory. This firmware image can then be downloaded to specific interface cards within the node with the burnfwrev command. The firmware image must be already loaded into the StrataView or StrataView + terminal before using this command.

When the command is first entered, the status is temporarily "Unavailable" while the node attempts to locate the source of the firmware image. Once the download begins, a list of all of the files that make up the image is displayed and as the downloading progresses, the address of the file is updated.

Caution This command is not to be confused with loadrev. It loads system software, not firmware.

loadcnf (Load Configuration)

The loadcnf command loads a configuration image from StrataView Plus to a node.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX, IPX/AF

Associated Commands

dspcnf, runcnf, savecnf

Syntax
loadcnf <backup_id | clear> <node_name> <source_SV_node>

<backup_id >

specifies the name of the backup configuration file to be loaded. Configuration names are case-sensitive.

<clear>

specifies that the control card buffer area used for loading a configuration be cleared.

<node name>

specifies the target node where the backup configuration file is to be loaded.

<source_SV_node>

specifies the node connected to the StrataView Plus where the configuration file backup_id resides.



Function

This command causes a saved network configuration file to be downloaded from StrataView Plus to one node or all nodes. (See savecnf.) The configuration image downloaded is temporarily stored in a buffer area in a node's controller card memory. The process runs in the background and may take several minutes if the configuration file is large. Although loaded, the configuration is not yet restored. The configuration is restored to the controller card's BRAM memory using the runcnf command.

After loading and restoring a network configuration, the control card buffer area used for this purpose should be cleared so it is available for other downloading processes, such as that of firmware. To clear the buffer area, execute loadcnf with the clear parameter specified instead of backup_id. Specify the buffer of an individual node with node_name or all nodes with *. For the purpose of clearing the buffer area, do not specify the source_SV_node parameter.

To execute this command on an IPX/AF interface shelf, telnet to the shelf or use a control terminal attached to the shelf.

loadrev (Load Revision)

The loadrev command loads a secondary system software revision image from StrataView or StrataView Plus into a node.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

runrev, dsprevs

Syntax
loadrev <revision> <nodename/*>

<revision >

specifies the revision level of the system software file to be loaded.

<nodename>

specifies the target node where the secondary revision is to be loaded.

<*>

is a shorthand notation used to specify all nodes in the network.



Function

This command loads the secondary revision system software for the specified nodes. The secondary revision system software is the code that is loaded onto a controller card but is not being run. Use the runrev command after loading of a revision is complete to make the secondary revision the primary revision. The previous primary revision then becomes the secondary.

Examples of this command:

After entering the command, system responds with: "Enter Rev Number:" The dsprevs command is used to observe the software revisions that are currently loaded into the controller memory. The dspdnld command is used to display a running picture of the status of the download procedure once it has commenced.

Caution This command is not to be confused with getfwrev. It loads firmware, not system software.

prtcderrs (Print Card Errors)

The prtcderrs command prints out detailed card failure information.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: No Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

clrcderrs, dspcderrs

Syntax
prtcderrs [<slot>]

<slot >

specifies the shelf slot where the selected card is installed.



Function

Prints a history of card failures associated with a specified slot on the network printer. If no argument is specified, a summary is printed, indicating the slots that have failures recorded against them. Refer to dspcderrs command for an example of a typical card error record that might be printed.

rrtcon (Reroute Connection)

The rrtcon command is used to manually reroute one or more connections.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

drtop

Syntax
rrtcon <group | channel(s) | *>

<group | channel(s) | *>

specifies a group, a channel, or a range of channels to be rerouted. A '*' specifies all locally owned groups and connections.



Function

This command forces a group, channel or range of channels to be rerouted. If a free-routing connection is rerouted by the system for whatever reason, it will not automatically return to its original route when the trouble clears. This may leave the connection on a path that is not the most direct or cost effective.

This command can be used to force a reroute that will likely put the connection back to its original route if available. Over time, many routes may need to be rerouted back to their original paths. In this case, use the "*" to reroute all connections.

To use this command you must first vt to the node that owns the connection (local node). If not at the local node, the system displays "This node is not owner of the connection(s)".

There is no provision for specifying a route. The node determines the connection route according to the same rules that are used when adding a new connection. If there is no network bandwidth available to reroute the connection, the connection will be marked as failed.

Caution Entering this command on a connection that is in service should be done with some discretion as the reroute will interrupt service for as long as it takes to reroute the connection.

rststats (Reset Statistics Collection TIme)

The rststats command resets the statistics collection time for the tststats command.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: No Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

tststats

Syntax
rststats

Function

This command resets the collection time for the tststats command. The tststats command displays a test statistics summary. Before there will be any meaningful statistics, the tstcon command must be performed on one or more network connections. Refer to the Cisco WAN Switching Command Reference for information on the tstcon command. Figure 1-88 illustrates the system response.

runcnf (Run Configuration)

The runcnf command restores a network configuration image at one or all nodes.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX, IPX/AF

Associated Commands

savecnf, loadcnf, clrcnf

Syntax
runcnf <backup_id> <node_name>

<backup_id>

specifies the name of the configuration image loaded from StrataView Plus. Configuration names are case-sensitive.

<node_name>

specifies the node name to receive the configuration. An asterisk (*) specifies all nodes.



Function

This command restores the specified configuration to the controller card's BRAM memory and overwrites the current configuration. Once restored, the specified node (or all nodes) rebuilds with the restored configuration image. To execute this command on an IPX/AF interface shelf, telnet to the shelf or use a control terminal attached to the shelf.

This command is usually run after a previous configuration has been lost. If doubts exist about the state of the configuration at other nodes in the network, load the configuration into all nodes by specifying "*" for the node name. The new configuration must have previously been loaded into the controller buffer area with the loadcnf command.

Caution All network nodes must be run with the same configuration.

The system may display two warnings in response to the runcnf command:

A. When single node specified:

B. When all nodes specified:

If a single node is not reachable, responding with a "Y" does not affect the operation of the network. If node(s) do not all have the specified configuration or all are unreachable, it is not recommended that you continue until after the problem is resolved.

runrev (Run Revision)

The runrev command runs a specific revision of the system software revision at a node.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dsprevs, loadrev

Syntax
runrev <revision> <nodename/*>

<backup_id>

specifies the name of configuration image loaded from StrataView Plus. Image names are generally in all capital letters and are case-sensitive when being entered.

<node_name>

specifies the node name to rebuild with a new configuration.

'*'

is a shorthand notation used to specify all nodes in the network.



Function

This command sets the primary revision for the specified nodes. The primary software revision is the one that is actively controlling node operation. A non-active secondary revision that does not match the primary revision may also be loaded in the controller. To set the primary software revision, enter:

After entering the command, system responds with "Enter Rev Number". Use the dsprevs command to determine which rev(s), primary and secondary, are available on the node. The runrev command will be ignored if the required revision is not present on the node.

You may need to load the new revision onto the StrataView Plus terminal and then use loadrev command to download the new software image into the standby controller before you issue the runrev command. If you enter a revision number that does not exist at the node, the system displays the message

  "Warning—the node does not have the specified revision. Continue? Y/N"
Caution All network nodes must be run with the same software revision or abnormal network operation will be experienced.

If you respond "no", the system takes you back to the main StrataView Plus prompt and you have an opportunity to change the rev. number and make a second attempt to run the corrected revision.

savecnf (Save Configuration)

The savecnf command saves a configuration image on a StrataView Plus workstation disk.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX, IPX/AF

Associated Commands

loadcnf, runcnf, clrcnf

Syntax
savecnf <backup_id | clear> <node_name> <dest_SV_node> [<dest_SV_ip>]

<backup_id>

specifies the name of a configuration to be saved on StrataView Plus. The Backup ID must be 1-8 alphanumeric characters with the first character being alphabetic. Configuration names are case-sensitive.

<clear>

specifies that the buffer area should be cleared.

<node_name>

specifies the node name to save configuration on. '*' may be specified to indicate all nodes.

<dest_SV_node>

specifies the node name where StrataView Plus is connected and that is to receive the specified backup_id.

<dest_SV_IP>

for IPX/AF interface shelves only, this optional specification is the IP address of the StrataView Plus that is to receive the configuration image.



Function

The savecnf command has two possible applications. It saves all the configurations for the nodes in a routing network, or it saves the configuration of one IPX/AF interface shelf to a specific StrataView Plus workstation. Once saved, the configuration may be restored to BRAM using the loadcnf and runcnf commands. The savecnf command should be executed in the following situations:

Execution on a Routing Node

In a routing network, savecnf saves a configuration image for one node or all routing nodes (node_name = *) on the StrataView Plus workstation specified by dest_SV_node.

Execution on an IPX/AF Interface Shelf

To execute savecnf on an IPX/AF, either telnet to the shelf or use a control terminal attached to it: savecnf saves a configuration image of only this IPX/AF. The image is stored on the workstation with the IP address in the parameter dest_SV_ip. (In a routing network, dest_SV_ip is not necessary.) Note that node_name and dest_SV_node must both be the name of the IPX/AF. The IP address of the destination StrataView Plus workstation uniquely identifies where to store the configuration image.
