Access Device Commands on a Node

This chapter describes the commands that apply specifically to the Cisco access devices (such as the Cisco 3801). The commands in this chapter apply to the trunk between the FTC or FTM card set in an IPX or IGX node and an access device.

The contents in this chapter are as follows:

Introduction
Descriptions of access device procedures
Descriptions of access device commands

In addition to commands that are unique to the Cisco access devices, a larger number of commands are common to the Cisco access devices and the FastPAD series of access devices. The descriptions for these common commands appear in the chapter titled "FastPAD Connections."

The commands you enter at the terminal attached to the access device itself are IOS commands. Refer to the documentation for the access device for descriptions of the IOS commands.

Introduction

This chapter describes the commands that apply to an access device. When you use other, common commands such as addcon, dspcon, cnfchutl, and so on, use the following syntax to, for example, specify the access device when adding a connection:

addcon slot.port.connection_ID,

where slot.port.connection_ID is the slot and port number of the FTC or FTM and connection_ID is the connection identifier.

Parameter Description

IP address

The IP address of the access device is optional. If you enter an IP address, it overrides the IP address that currently exists on the access device.

number of mask bits

The number of bits in the IP subnet mask.

addcon

Adds a connection between an access device and another endpoint. You add connections between the following endpoints:

UVM and FTM/FTC
FTM/FTC and FTM/FTC
FTM/FTC and FRM/FRP
CVM/CDP and FTM/FTC

Note that, if one end of the connection is a CVM or CDP, you must add the connection at the CVM/CDP.

Three connection types are possible for an access device. After you have specified the local and remote connection identifiers, the interface prompts you for a connection type. The type depends on the endpoint cards, as follows:

For UVM and FTM/FTC endpoints, the connection type is "voice."
For FTM/FTC and FTM/FTC endpoints, the connection type is "session."
For FTM/FTC and FRM/FRP endpoints, you specify the type as a frame relay class.
For CVM/CDP and FTM/FTC endpoints, the connection type is "voice."

cnfadcmtmr

Configures the congestion management timer. The timer is applicable only if ForeSight is active.

The configuration management timer specifies how often rate-adjustment messages are passed between the FTC or FTM and the access device. This timer mechanism lets the congestion management provided by ForeSight extend to access devices. If you enter a 0 for the value, the interface card and device do not exchange rate adjustment messages.

Cong. Mgmt. Timer

The setting for the timer. The number you enter is actually a multiplier for the base of 10 milliseconds, so the granularity is automatically 10 milliseconds. The range for the multiplier is 4-350, so the range for the timer is 40-3500 milliseconds.

The default (no user-input) is 100 ms.

To disable the timer, enter a 0.

cnfadcon

Configures bandwidth parameters for the trunk connection between an access device and the FTC or FTM. The parameters for cnfadcon are bi-directional. (Type a slash between the parameter for each direction.) The first parameter is from the node to the access device. The second parameter is from the access device to the node. An asterisk (*) indicates that the value is to remain unchanged for that direction. The only parameter that is not bi-directional is FST (ForeSight enable = "y" or "n").

The command line interface does not prompt for individual bandwidth parameters. Therefore, refer to the cnfadcon options table to see the order in which you type the parameters.

Parameter	Description
slot.port	Specifies the slot and port on an FTC/ FTM for an access device connection.
bw_parameters	The bandwidth parameters are as follows: MIR/MIR is defined as fr_MIR_Tx /fr_MIR_Rx, where fr_MIR is the minimum information rate for a connection. The range is 2.4 Kbps-2048 Kbps. CIR/CIR is defined as fr_CIR_Tx and fr_CIR_Rx, where fr_CIR is defined as the committed information rate guaranteed to the user. The CIR range is 2.4 Kbps-2048 Kbps. VC_Q/VC_Q is defined as fr_vc_q_Tx/fr_vc_q_Rx, where fr_vc_q Tx is the maximum transmit VC queue depth. The VC_Q range is 1-65535 bytes. (An alternative to this parameter is possible, as the description of Bc shows.) or Bc/Bc is defined as fr_Bc_Tx /fr_Bc_Rx. Bc has meaning for only ForeSight connections. If you have selected Frame Relay Forum standard parameters (through the cnfsysparm command), the Committed Burst (Bc) parameter appears instead of VC_Q. Bc is the amount of data the network can accept over a variable time interval (Tc) for committed delivery on a specific PVC. The range for Bc is 1-65535 bytes. The relationship between Bc and VC_Q is: Bc = VC_Q / ((1 - (CIR/port speed)) PIR/PIR is defined as fr_PIR_Tx /fr_PIR_Rx, where fr_PIR_Tx is the peak transmit rate for the PVC. The PIR range is 2.4-2048 Kbps. You can also specify the value 0 to cause PIR to default to the port speed. Thus, you can modify PIR, leave it the same, or set it to the port speed. (An alternative specification for this parameter is possible, as the description of Be shows.) or Be/Be is defined as fr_Be_Tx /fr_Be_Rx. If you have selected Frame Relay Forum standard parameters (through the cnfsysparm command), the PVC uses Excess Burst (Be) instead of PIR. Be is the amount of transmit/receive data above the number of bytes set by Bc if enough bandwidth is available. Specify Be in bytes within the range 1-65535. Delivery of Be-data is not guaranteed. Be has meaning to only ForeSight. The relationship between Be and PIR is: Be = Bc * ((PIR/CIR) - 1) Cmax/Cmax is defined as fr_cmax_Tx /fr_cmax_Rx, where cmax is the maximum credits the connection can accrue. The Cmax range is 1-255 packets per second (pps). ECNQ_thresh/ECNQ_thresh are the transmit and receive threshold settings for the explicit congestion notification control queues. The range for ECNQ_thresh is 1-65535 bytes. QIR/QIR is defined as fr_QIR_Tx /fr_QIR_Rx, where fr_QIR is the quiescent information rate for a connection, which is the initial transmit rate after a period of inactivity on the channel. If you do not specify the quiescent receive rate fr_QIR_Rx, the system sets it to the transmit value. The values are specified in Kbps and must be in the range MIR-PIR. In addition, you can specify the value 0 to default to the MIR. QIR has meaning for only ForeSight connections. FST enables or disables (purchased) ForeSight option for a connection. Valid entries are "y" (use ForeSight) or "n" (do not use ForeSight). If the ForeSight status changes, the network reroutes the connection.

Table 15-7: cnfadcon-Parameters

Parameter Description

slot.port

Specifies the slot and port on an FTC/ FTM for an access device connection.

bw_parameters

The bandwidth parameters are as follows:

MIR/MIR is defined as fr_MIR_Tx /fr_MIR_Rx, where fr_MIR is the minimum information rate for a connection. The range is 2.4 Kbps-2048 Kbps.

CIR/CIR is defined as fr_CIR_Tx and fr_CIR_Rx, where fr_CIR is defined as the committed information rate guaranteed to the user. The CIR range is
2.4 Kbps-2048 Kbps.

VC_Q/VC_Q is defined as fr_vc_q_Tx/fr_vc_q_Rx, where fr_vc_q Tx is the maximum transmit VC queue depth. The VC_Q range is 1-65535 bytes. (An alternative to this parameter is possible, as the description of Bc shows.)

or

Bc/Bc is defined as fr_Bc_Tx /fr_Bc_Rx. Bc has meaning for only ForeSight connections. If you have selected Frame Relay Forum standard parameters (through the cnfsysparm command), the Committed Burst (Bc) parameter appears instead of VC_Q. Bc is the amount of data the network can accept over a variable time interval (Tc) for committed delivery on a specific PVC. The range for Bc is 1-65535 bytes. The relationship between Bc and VC_Q is:

Bc = VC_Q / ((1 - (CIR/port speed))

PIR/PIR is defined as fr_PIR_Tx /fr_PIR_Rx, where fr_PIR_Tx is the peak transmit rate for the PVC. The PIR range is 2.4-2048 Kbps. You can also specify the value 0 to cause PIR to default to the port speed. Thus, you can modify PIR, leave it the same, or set it to the port speed. (An alternative specification for this parameter is possible, as the description of Be shows.)

or

Be/Be is defined as fr_Be_Tx /fr_Be_Rx. If you have selected Frame Relay Forum standard parameters (through the cnfsysparm command), the PVC uses Excess Burst (Be) instead of PIR. Be is the amount of transmit/receive data above the number of bytes set by Bc if enough bandwidth is available. Specify Be in bytes within the range 1-65535. Delivery of Be-data is not guaranteed. Be has meaning to only ForeSight. The relationship between Be and PIR is:

Be = Bc * ((PIR/CIR) - 1)

Cmax/Cmax is defined as fr_cmax_Tx /fr_cmax_Rx, where cmax is the maximum credits the connection can accrue. The Cmax range is 1-255 packets per second (pps).

ECNQ_thresh/ECNQ_thresh are the transmit and receive threshold settings for the explicit congestion notification control queues. The range for ECNQ_thresh is 1-65535 bytes.

QIR/QIR is defined as fr_QIR_Tx /fr_QIR_Rx, where fr_QIR is the quiescent information rate for a connection, which is the initial transmit rate after a period of inactivity on the channel. If you do not specify the quiescent receive rate fr_QIR_Rx, the system sets it to the transmit value. The values are specified in Kbps and must be in the range MIR-PIR. In addition, you can specify the value 0 to default to the MIR. QIR has meaning for only ForeSight connections.

FST enables or disables (purchased) ForeSight option for a connection. Valid entries are "y" (use ForeSight) or "n" (do not use ForeSight). If the ForeSight status changes, the network reroutes the connection.

Next Command:

Parameter	Description
start channel	Specifies the channel to begin the display. The start channel on a CDP or CVM is specified as slot.channel.The start channel on a UVM is slot.line.channel.
node name	Specifies that only connections to this remote node from the local note be displayed. If no "nodename" is designated, connections from the local node to all other nodes are displayed.
connection type	Specifies that only connections of a certain type be displayed. If you do not add at least one argument to specify a particular connection type, all connections appear. When you enter the connection type on the command line, precede it with a hyphen (-). In some cases, you can add more than one connection type (with a space between), but not all compound arguments are compatible, so you may not always see the expected combination of types. The connection types are: -v displays only voice connections. -d displays only data connections. -f displays only frame relay connections. -abit shows A-bit (nni) status. -fabit shows connections with failed A-bit (nni) status. -fail shows only failed connections -g shows only grouped connections -siw shows service interworking connections. -atfr shows only network interworking connections.
+d	Causes the display to show the user-configured descriptor for the connection instead of the compression and ownership fields.

resetad

Directs an access device to reset itself from a node terminal. The reset initiated by resetad is a cold-boot start of the access device. (The restartad command re-initiates the control session between the node and the access device.)

Full Name

Reset access device

Syntax

resetad <slot.port>.<Access Device ID>

restartad, dspads

Attributes

Privilege	1-3
Jobs	Yes
Log	Yes
Node	IPX, IGX
Lock	Yes

Parameter	Description
slot.port	Specifies the slot and port number that connects to the access device.
access device_ID	Specifies the access device ID number. The range for the access device_ID is 1-255. Access devices on the same trunk are assigned in increasing order.

Table 15-12: resetad-Parameters

Parameter Description

slot.port

Specifies the slot and port number that connects to the access device.

access device_ID

Specifies the access device ID number. The range for the access device_ID is 1-255. Access devices on the same trunk are assigned in increasing order.

restartad

Restarts an access device session from a node's command terminal. The restartad command restarts the control session of an access device on an IPX or IGX node. A control session is first established when the following conditions are true:

1. You add an access device to the node with addad.

2. The port speed and other parameters on the device and the port match.

Once a control session is established, you can configure and manage the access device by commands you issue at the node. These commands are the access device commands in this chapter and the other, common commands in this manual.

The restartad command does not perform a hard reset of the access device itself. See resetad regarding a hard reset of the access device.
