Chapter 2  
Switch Management Overview  
This chapter gives an overview of switch management, including the methods you can use to  
manage your NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch.  
Management Access Overview  
SNMP Access  
Protocols  
Scope  
The NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch software has two purposes:  
Assist attached hardware in switching frames, based on Layer 2 or 3 information contained in  
the frames.  
Provide a complete switch management portfolio for the network administrator.  
Switch Management Overview  
Fast Ethernet (FEN) and Gigabit Ethernet (GEN) switching continues to evolve from high-end  
backbone applications to desktop switching applications. The price of the technology continues to  
decline, while performance and feature sets continue to improve. Devices that are capable of  
switching Layers 2, 3, and 4 are increasingly in demand. The NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3  
Managed Switch provides a flexible solution to these ever-increasing needs.  
The NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch provides the network administrator with a  
set of comprehensive management functions for managing both the FSM7328S, FSM7352S and  
the network. The network administrator has a choice of three easy-to-use management methods:  
Web-based  
VT100 interface  
Note: The maximum number of configuration file command lines is 2000.

Simple Network Protocol Management (SNMP)  
Each management method enables the network administrator to configure, manage, and control  
the managed switch locally or remotely using in-band or out-of-band mechanisms. Management is  
standards-based, with configuration parameters and a private MIB providing control for functions  
not completely specified in the MIBs.

Administration Console Interface  
The administration console is an internal, character-oriented, VT-100/ANSI command-driven user  
interface for performing management activities. Using this method, you can view the  
administration console from a terminal, PC, Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation connected to  
the switch’s console port. Figure 3-1 shows an example of this management method.  
Figure 3-1: Administration Console Management Method  
Set Up Your Switch Using Direct Console Access  
The direct access management method is required when you initially set up your switch.  
Thereafter, the convenience and additional features of the Web management access method make  
more information.  
Direct access to the switch console is achieved by connecting the switch’s console port to a  
VT-100 or compatible terminal or to a PC, Apple Macintosh, or UNIX workstation equipped with  
a terminal-emulation program. This connection is made using the null-modem cable supplied with  
the switch.

Web-Based Management Interface  
Your NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch provides a built-in browser interface that  
lets you configure and manage it remotely using a standard Web browser such as Microsoft  
Internet Explorer 5.0 or later or Netscape Navigator 6.0 or later.  
This interface also allows for system monitoring and management of the switch. The ‘help’ page  
covers many of the basic functions and features of the switch and it’s web interface.  
Note: The details of the graphical user interface for the Netgear 7000 Series Managed  
Switch you are using may differ slightly from those depicted in the chapter.  
When you configure the switch for the first time from the console, you can assign an IP address  
and subnet mask to the switch. Thereafter, you can access the switch’s Web interface directly using  
your Web browser by entering the switch’s IP address into the address bar. In this way, you can use  
your Web browser to manage the switch from a central location, just as if you were directly  
connected to the switch’s console port. Figure 4-1 shows this management method.

Parameters  
Parameters are order dependent.  
The text in bold italics should be replaced with a name or number. To use spaces as part of a name  
parameter, enclose it in double quotes like this: "System Name with Spaces".  
Parameters may be mandatory values, optional values, choices, or a combination.  
<parameter>. The <> angle brackets indicate that a mandatory parameter must be entered  
in place of the brackets and text inside them.  
[parameter]. The [] square brackets indicate that an optional parameter may be entered in  
place of the brackets and text inside them.  
choice1 | choice2. The | indicates that only one of the parameters should be entered.  
The {} curly braces indicate that a parameter must be chosen from the list of choices.  
Values  
ipaddr  
This parameter is a valid IP address, made up of four decimal  
bytes ranging from 0 to 255. The default for all IP parameters  
consists of zeros (that is, 0.0.0.1). The interface IP address of  
0.0.0.0 is invalid. In some cases, the IP address can also be  
entered as a 32-bit number.  
macaddr  
areaid  
The MAC address format is six hexadecimal numbers separated  
by colons, for example 00:06:29:32:81:40.  
Area IDs may be entered in dotted-decimal notation (for example,  
0.0.0.1). An area ID of 0.0.0.0 is reserved for the backbone. Area  
IDs have the same form as IP addresses, but are distinct from IP  
addresses. The IP network number of the sub-netted network may  
be used for the area ID.  
routerid  
slot/port  
The value of <router id> must be entered in 4-digit dotted-deci-  
mal notation (for example, 0.0.0.1). A router ID of 0.0.0.0 is  
invalid.  
This parameter denotes a valid slot number and a valid port num-  
ber. For example, 0/1 represents slot number 0 and port number 1.  
The <slot/port> field is composed of a valid slot number and a  
valid port number separated by a forward slash (/).

logical slot/port  
This parameter denotes a logical slot number and logical port  
number assigned. This is applicable in the case of a port-channel  
(LAG). The operator can use the logical slot number and the logi-  
cal port number to configure the port-channel.  
Conventions  
Network addresses are used to define a link to a remote host, workstation or network. Network  
addresses are shown using the following syntax:  
Table 5-1.  
Address Type

Network Address Syntax  
Format  
Range  
A.B.C.D  
0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255  
(decimal)  
YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY  
hexidecimal digit pairs  
macaddr  
Double quotation marks such as "System Name with Spaces" set off user defined strings. If the  
operator wishes to use spaces as part of a name parameter then it must be enclosed in double  
quotation marks.  
Empty strings (““) are not valid user defined strings.  
Command completion finishes spelling the command when enough letters of a command are typed  
to uniquely identify the command word. The command may be executed by typing <enter>  
(command abbreviation) or the command word may be completed by typing the <tab> or <space  
bar> (command completion).  
The value 'Err' designates that the requested value was not internally accessible. This should never  
happen and indicates that there is a case in the software that is not handled correctly.  
The value of '-----' designates that the value is unknown.

Annotations  
The CLI allows the user to type single-line annotations at the command prompt for use when  
writing test or configuration scripts and for better readability. The exclamation point (‘!’) character  
flags the beginning of a comment. The comment flag character can begin a word anywhere on the  
command line and all input following this character is ignored. Any command line that begins  
with the character ‘!’ is recognized as a comment line and ignored by the parser.  
Some examples are provided below:  
! Script file for displaying the ip interface  
! Display information about interfaces  
show ip interface 0/1 !Displays the information about the first interface  
! Display information about the next interface  
show ip interface 0/2

Quick Start up  
The CLI Quick Start up details procedures to quickly become acquainted with the 7300S Series L3  
Switch.  
Quick Starting the Switch  
1. Read the device Installation Guide for the connectivity procedure. In-band connectivity allows  
access to the 7300S Series L3 Switch locally or from a remote workstation. The device must  
be configured with IP information (IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway).  
2. Turn the Power ON.  
3. Allow the device to load the software until the login prompt appears. The device initial state is  
called the default mode.  
4. When the prompt asks for operator login, execute the following steps:  
Type the word admin in the login area. Since a number of the Quick Setup commands  
require administrator account rights, NETGEAR suggests logging into an administrator  
account.  
Enter the password you have defined or simply press the enter key if it is the first time you  
are logging in.  
Press the enter key two times.  
The CLI User EXEC prompt will be displayed.  
Use “enable” to switch to the Privileged EXEC mode from User EXEC.  
Use “configure” to switch to the Global Config mode from Privileged EXEC.  
Use “exit” to return to the previous mode.

Access to all commands in the Privileged Exec mode and below are restricted through a password.  
Mode-based Command Hierarchy  
The CLI is divided into various modes. The Commands in one mode are not available until the  
operator switches to that particular mode, with the exception of the User Exec mode commands.  
The User Exec mode commands may also be executed in the Privileged Exec mode.  
The commands available to the operator at any point in time depend upon the mode. Entering a  
question mark (?) at the CLI prompt, displays a list of the available commands and descriptions of  
the commands.  
The CLI provides the following modes:  
User Exec Mode  
When the operator logs into the CLI, the User Exec mode is the  
initial mode. The User Exec mode contains a limited set of com-  
mands. The command prompt shown at this level is:  
Command Prompt: $(Exec)>  
Privileged Exec Mode  
To have access to the full suite of commands, the operator must  
enter the Privileged Exec mode. The Privileged Exec mode  
requires password authentication. From Privileged Exec mode,  
the operator can issue any Exec command or enter the Global  
Configuration mode. The command prompt shown at this level is:  
Command Prompt: $(Exec)#  
Global Config Mode  
This mode permits the operator to make modifications to the run-  
ning configuration. General setup commands are grouped in this  
mode. From the Global Configuration mode, the operator can  
enter the System Configuration mode, the Physical Port config,  
the Interface Configuration mode, or the Protocol Specific modes  
specified below. The command prompt at this level is:  
Command Prompt: $(Config)#  
From the Global Config mode, the operator may enter the following config modes:  
VLAN Mode  
This mode groups all the commands pertaining to VLANs. The  
command prompt shown at this level is:  
Command Prompt: $(VLAN)#  
Interface Config Mode  
Many features are enabled for a particular interface. The Interface  
commands enable or modify the operation of an interface.

In this mode, a physical port is set up for a specific logical con-  
nection operation. The Interface Config mode provides access to  
the router interface configuration commands. The command  
prompt at this level is:  
Command Prompt: $(Interface <slot/port>)#  
The resulting prompt for the interface configuration command  
entered in the Global Configuration mode is shown below:  
$(Config)# interface 2/1  
$(Interface 2/1)#  
Line Config Mode  
This mode allows the operator to configure the console interface.  
The operator may configure the interface from the directly con-  
nected console or the virtual terminal used with Telnet. The com-  
mand prompt at this level is:  
Command Prompt: $(Line)#  
Policy Map Mode  
Policy Class Mode  
Class Map Mode  
Use the policy-map command to access the QoS policy map con-  
figuration mode to configure the QoS policy map.  
$(Config)# policy-map  
Command Prompt: $(Config policy-map)#  
Use the "class" command to access the QoS policy- classmap  
mode to configure the QoS policy map.  
$(Config-policy-map)# class  
Command Prompt: $(Config - policy-classmap)#  
This mode consists of class creation/deletion and matching com-  
mands. The class match commands specify layer 2, layer 3 and  
general match criteria. Use the class-map commands to access the  
QoS class map configuration mode to configure QoS class maps.  
$(Config)# class map  
Command Prompt: $(Config - class)#  
Router Config RIP Mode  
In this mode, the operator is allowed to access the router RIP con-  
figuration commands. The command prompt at this level is:  
$(Config)# router rip  
Command Prompt: $(Config-router)#  
DHCP Pool Configuration Mode Use the ip dhcp pool <pool-name> command to access the  
DHCP Pool Config Mode.  
$(Config)# ip dhcp pool <pool-name>

Flow of Operation  
This section captures the flow of operation for the CLI:  
1. The operator logs into the CLI session and enters the User Exec mode. In the User Exec mode  
the $(exec)> prompt is displayed on the screen.  
The parsing process is initiated whenever the operator types a command and presses <ENTER>.  
The command tree is searched for the command of interest. If the command is not found, the  
output message indicates where the offending entry begins. For instance, command node A has the  
command "show arp brief"but the operator attempts to execute the command "show arpp  
brief"then the output message would be $(exec)> show arpp brief^. $%Invalid input detected at '^'  
marker. If the operator has given an invalid input parameter in the command, then the message  
conveys to the operator an invalid input was detected. The layout of the output is depicted below:  
(exec) #show arpp brief  
^
%Invalid input detected at ‘^’ marker.  
FIGURE 2. Syntax Error Message  
After all the mandatory parameters are entered, any additional parameters entered are treated as  
optional parameters. If any of the parameters are not recognized a syntax error message will be  
displayed.  
2. After the command is successfully parsed and validated, the control of execution goes to the  
corresponding CLI callback function.  
3. For mandatory parameters, the command tree extends till the mandatory parameters make the  
leaf of the branch. The callback function is only invoked when all the mandatory parameters  
are provided. For optional parameters, the command tree extends till the mandatory  
parameters and the optional parameters make the leaf of the branch. However, the call back  
function is associated with the node where the mandatory parameters are fetched. The call  
back function then takes care of the optional parameters.  
4. Once the control has reached the callback function, the callback function has complete  
information about the parameters entered by the operator.

User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software  
“No” Form of a Command  
"No" is a specific form of an existing command and does not represent a new or distinct command.  
Only the configuration commands are available in the "no"form. The behavior and the support  
details of the “no” form is captured as part of the mapping sheets. The mapping sheets are  
contained in the Appendix A, “IS CLI Mapping section.  
Support for “No” Form  
Almost every configuration command has a “no” form. In general, use the no form to reverse the  
action of a command or reset a value back to the default. For example, the “no shutdown interface’  
configuration command reverses the shutdown of an interface. Use the command without the  
keyword no to re-enable a disabled feature or to enable a feature that is disabled by default.  
Behavior of Command Help ("?")  
The "no"form is treated as a specific form of an existing command and does not represent a new or  
distinct command. This implies that the behavior of the "?" and help text is the same for the “no”  
form:  
The help message is the same for all forms of the command. The help string may be  
augmented with details about the "no" form behavior.  
For the (no config interface?) and (no config inte?) cases of the "?", the options displayed are  
identical to the case when the "no" token is not specified.

SNMP Community Commands  
show snmpcommunity  
This command displays SNMP community information. Six communities are supported. You can  
add, change, or delete communities. The switch does not have to be reset for changes to take  
effect.  
The SNMP agent of the switch complies with SNMP Version 1 (for more about the SNMP  
specification, see the SNMP RFCs). The SNMP agent sends traps through TCP/IP to an external  
SNMP manager based on the SNMP configuration (the trap receiver and other SNMP community  
parameters).

SNMP Community Name The community string to which this entry grants access. A valid  
entry is a case-sensitive alphanumeric string of up to 16 charac-  
ters. Each row of this table must contain a unique community  
name.  
Client IP Address -  
An IP address (or portion thereof) from which this device will  
accept SNMP packets with the associated community. The  
requesting entity's IP address is ANDed with the Subnet Mask  
before being compared to the IP Address. Note: that if the Subnet  
Mask is set to 0.0.0.0, an IP Address of 0.0.0.0 matches all IP  
addresses. The default value is 0.0.0.0  
Client IP Mask -  
A mask to be ANDed with the requesting entity's IP address  
before comparison with IP Address. If the result matches with IP  
Address then the address is an authenticated IP address. For  
example, if the IP Address = 9.47.128.0 and the corresponding  
Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0 a range of incoming IP addresses  
would match, i.e. the incoming IP Address could equal  
9.47.128.0 - 9.47.128.255. The default value is 0.0.0.0

set gmrp interfacemode  
This command enables GARP Multicast Registration Protocol on a selected interface. If an  
interface which has GARP enabled is enabled for routing or is enlisted as a member of a port-  
channel (LAG), GARP functionality will be disabled on that interface. GARP functionality will  
subsequently be re-enabled if routing is disabled and port-channel (LAG) membership is removed

Join Timer  
This displays the slot/port of the interface that this row in the table describes.  
Specifies the interval between the transmission of GARP PDUs registering (or  
re-registering) membership for an attribute. Current attributes are a VLAN or  
multicast group. There is an instance of this timer on a per-Port, per-GARP par-  
ticipant basis. Permissible values are 10 to 100 centiseconds (0.1 to 1.0 sec-  
onds). The factory default is 20 centiseconds (0.2 seconds). The finest  
granularity of specification is 1 centisecond (0.01 seconds).  
Leave Timer  
Specifies the period of time to wait after receiving an unregister request for an  
attribute before deleting the attribute. Current attributes are a VLAN or multi-  
cast group. This may be considered a buffer time for another station to assert  
registration for the same attribute in order to maintain uninterrupted service.  
There is an instance of this timer on a per-Port, per-GARP participant basis. Per-  
missible values are 20 to 600 centiseconds (0.2 to 6.0 seconds). The factory  
default is 60 centiseconds (0.6 seconds). The finest granularity of specification  
is 1 centisecond (0.01 seconds).  
LeaveAll Timer  
Port GMRP Mode  
This Leave All Time controls how frequently LeaveAll PDUs are generated. A  
LeaveAll PDU indicates that all registrations will shortly be deregistered. Par-  
ticipants will need to rejoin in order to maintain registration. There is an  
instance of this timer on a per-Port, per-GARP participant basis. The Leave All  
Period Timer is set to a random value in the range of LeaveAllTime to  
1.5*LeaveAllTime. Permissible values are 200 to 6000 centiseconds (2 to 60  
seconds). The factory default is 1000 centiseconds (10 seconds). The finest  
granularity of specification is 1 centisecond (0.01 seconds).  
Indicates the GMRP administrative mode for the port. It may be enabled or dis-  
abled. If this parameter is disabled, Join Time, Leave Time and Leave All Time  
have no effect. The factory default is disabled.

configuration command there is a show command that will display the configuration setting.  
Show commands are used to display switch settings, statistics and other information.  
authentication login  
This command creates an authentication login list. The <listname> is any character string and is  
not case sensitive. Up to 10 authentication login lists can be configured on the switch. When a list  
is created, the authentication method “local” is set as the first method.  
When the optional parameters “Option1”, “Option2” and/or “Option3” are used, an ordered list of  
methods are set in the authentication login list. If the authentication login list does not exist, a new  
authentication login list is first created and then the authentication methods are set in the  
authentication login list. The maximum number of authentication login methods is three. The  
possible method values are local, radius and reject.  
The value of localindicates that the user’s locally stored ID and password are used for  
authentication. The value of radiusindicates that the user’s ID and password will be authenticated  
using the RADIUS server. The value of reject indicates the user is never authenticated.  
To authenticate a user, the authentication methods in the user’s login will be attempted in order  
until an authentication attempt succeeds or fails.  
Note: The default login list included with the default configuration can not be changed.

If the 'auth' token is used, the command configures the IP address to use to connect to a RADIUS  
authentication server. Up to 3 servers can be configured per RADIUS client. If the maximum  
number of configured servers is reached, the command will fail until one of the servers is removed  
by executing the no form of the command. If the optional <port> parameter is used, the command  
will configure the UDP port number to use to connect to the configured RADIUS server. In order  
to configure the UDP port number, the IP address must match that of a previously configured  
RADIUS authentication server. The port number must lie between 1 - 65535, with 1812 being the  
default value.  
If the 'acct' token is used, the command configures the IP address to use for the RADIUS  
accounting server. Only a single accounting server can be configured. If an accounting server is  
currently configured, it must be removed from the configuration using the no form of the  
command before this command succeeds. If the optional <port> parameter is used, the command  
will configure the UDP port to use to connect to the RADIUS accounting server. The IP address  
specified must match that of a previously configured accounting server. If a port is already  
configured for the accounting server then the new port will replace the previously configured  
value. The port must be a value in the range 1 - 65535, with 1813 being the default value.

Routing Information Protocol (RIP) Commands  
This chapter provides a detailed explanation of the RIP commands. The commands are divided by  
functionality into the following different groups:  
Show commands are used to display switch settings, statistics and other information.  
Configuration Commands are used to configure features and options of the switch. For every  
configuration command there is a show command that will display the configuration setting.  
Copy commands are used to transfer configuration and informational files to and from the  
switch.

Quality of Service (QoS) Commands  
This chapter provides a detailed explanation of the Quality of Service (QOS) commands. The  
following QOS commands are available in the software QOS module.  
The commands are divided into these different groups:  
Show commands are used to display device settings, statistics and other information.  
Configuration Commands are used to configure features and options of the switch. For every  
configuration command there is a show command that will display the configuration setting.  
Access Control List (ACL) Commands  
Access Control Lists (ACLs) ensure that only authorized users have access to specific resources  
while blocking off any unwarranted attempts to reach network resources.  
Note:  


ACL configuration for IP packet fragments is not supported.  
The maximum number of rules per ACL translates into the number of hardware  
classifier entries used when an ACL is attached to an interface. Increasing these  
values in the software increases the RAM and NVSTORE usage.  

ACLs are configured separately for Layer 2 and Layer 3/Layer 4. Some types of  
hardware do not allow both types of ACLs to be applied to the same interface.  
mac access-list extended <name>  
This command creates a MAC Access Control List (ACL) identified by <name>, consisting of  
classification fields defined for the Layer 2 header of an Ethernet frame. The <name> parameter is  
a case-sensitive alphanumeric string from 1 to 31 characters uniquely identifying the MAC access  
list.  
If a MAC ACL by this name already exists, this command enters Mac-Access-List config mode to  
allow updating the existing ACL.

mac access-list extended rename <name> <newname>  
This command changes the name of a MAC Access Control List (ACL). The <name> parameter  
is the name of an existing MAC ACL. The <newname> parameter is a case-sensitive  
alphanumeric string from 1 to 31 characters uniquely identifying the MAC access list.  
This command fails if a MAC ACL by the name <newname> already exists.  
Format  
Mode  
mac access-list extended rename <name> <newname>  
Global Config  
{deny|permit} <srcmac> <srcmacmask> <dstmac>  
<dstmacmask>  
This command creates a new rule for the current MAC access list. Each rule is appended to the list  
of configured rules for the list. Note that an implicit 'deny all' MAC rule always terminates the  
access list.  
Note: The 'no' form of this command is not supported, as the rules within an ACL cannot be  
deleted individually. Rather, the entire ACL must be deleted and re-specified.  
A rule may either deny or permit traffic according to the specified classification fields. At a  
minimum, the source and destination MAC value and mask pairs must be specified, each of which  
may be substituted using the keyword any to indicate a match on any value in that field. The bpdu  
keyword may be specified for the destination MAC value/mask pair indicating a well-known  
BPDU MAC value of 01-80-c2-xx-xx-xx (hex), where 'xx' indicates a don't care. The remaining  
command parameters are all optional.

The Ethertype may be specified as either a keyword or a four-digit hexadecimal value from  
0x0600-0xFFFF. The currently supported <ethertypekey> values are: appletalk, arp, ibmsna,  
ipv4, ipv6, ipx, mplsmcast, mplsucast, netbios, novell, pppoe, rarp. Each of these translates into  
its equivalent Ethertype value(s).  
The assign-queue parameter allows specification of a particular hardware queue for handling  
traffic that matches this rule. The allowed <queue-id> value is 0-(n-1), where n is the number of  
user configurable queues available for the hardware platform. The redirect parameter allows the  
traffic matching this rule to be forwarded to the specified <slot/port>. The assign-queue and  
redirect parameters are only valid for a 'permit' rule.  
Format  
{deny|permit} {{<srcmac> <srcmacmask} | any} {{<dst-  
mac> <dstmacmask>} | any | bpdu} [<ethertypekey> |

<0-7>] [assign-queue <queue-id>] [redirect <slot/  
port>]  
Note that the special command form {deny|permit} any any is used to match all Ethernet layer 2  
packets, and is the equivalent of the IP access list "match every" rule.  
Mode  
Mac-Access-List Config  
mac access-group <name> {in|out} [sequence <1-4294967295>]  
This command attaches a specific MAC Access Control List (ACL) identified by <name> to an  
interface in a given direction. The <name> parameter must be the name of an exsiting MAC ACL.  
An optional sequence number may be specified to indicate the order of this access list relative to  
other access lists already assigned to this interface and direction. A lower number indicates higher  
precedence order. If a sequence number is already in use for this interface and direction, the  
specified access list replaces the currently attached access list using that sequence number. If the  
sequence number is not specified for this command, a sequence number that is one greater than the  
highest sequence number currently in use for this interface and direction will be used.  
This command specified in 'Interface Config' mode only affects a single interface, whereas the  
'Global Config' mode setting is applied to all interfaces. The 'Interface Config' mode command is  
only available on platforms that support independent per-port class of service queue configuration.

access-list  
This command creates an Access Control List (ACL) that is identified by the parameter  
<accesslistnumber>. The ACL number is an integer from 1 to 199. The range 1 to 99 is for  
normal ACL List and 100 to 199 is extended ACL List. The ACL rule is created with the option of  
permit or deny . The protocol to filter for an ACL rule is specified by giving the protocol to be  
used like cmp,igmp,ip,tcp,udp. The command specifies a source ipaddress and source mask for  
match condition of the ACL rule specified by the srcip and srcmask parameters.The source layer 4  
port match condition for the ACL rule are specified by the port value parameter.The <startport>  
and <endport> parameters identify the first and last ports that are part of the port range. They  
have values from 0 to 65535. The ending port must have a value equal or greater than the starting  
port. The starting port, ending port, and all ports in between will be part of the destination port  
range.The <portvalue> parameter uses a single keyword notation and currently has the values of  
domain, echo, ftp, ftpdata, http, smtp, snmp, telnet, tftp, and www. Each of these  
values translates into its equivalent port number, which is used as both the start and end of a port  
range. The command specifies a destination ipaddress and destination mask for match condition of  
the ACL rule specified by the dstip and dstmask parameters.The command specifies the TOS for  
an ACL rule depending on a match of precedence or DSCP values using the parameters tos,  
tosmask ,dscp.

This chapter contains the CLI commands used for the QOS Differentiated Services (DiffServ)  
package.  
The user configures DiffServ in several stages by specifying:  
1. Class  


creating and deleting classes  
defining match criteria for a class. Note: The only way to remove an individual  
match criterion from an existing class definition is to delete the class and re-cre-  
ate it.  
2. Policy  



creating and deleting policies  
associating classes with a policy  
defining policy statements for a policy/class combination  
3. Service  
adding and removing a policy to/from a directional (i.e., inbound, outbound)  
interface  

Packets are filtered and processed based on defined criteria. The filtering criteria is defined by a  
class. The processing is defined by a policy's attributes. Policy attributes may be defined on a per-  
class instance basis, and it is these attributes that are applied when a match occurs.  
Packet processing begins by testing the match criteria for a packet. A policy is applied to a packet  
when a class match within that policy is found.

User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software  
Note that the type of class - all, any, or acl - has a bearing on the validity of match criteria specified  
when defining the class. A class type of 'any' processes its match rules in an ordered sequence;  
additional rules specified for such a class simply extend this list. A class type of ‘acl’ obtains its  
rule list by interpreting each ACL rule definition at the time the Diffserv class is created.  
Differences arise when specifying match criteria for a class type 'all', since only one value for each  
non-excluded match field is allowed within a class definition. If a field is already specified for a  
class, all subsequent attempts to specify the same field fail, including the cases where a field can  
be specified multiple ways through alternative formats. The exception to this is when the 'exclude'  
option is specified, in which case this restriction does not apply to the excluded fields.  
The following class restrictions are imposed by the DiffServ design:  
nested class support limited to:  





'any' within 'any'  
'all' within 'all'  
no nested 'not' conditions  
no nested 'acl' class types  
each class contains at most one referenced class  
hierarchical service policies not supported in a class definition  
access list matched by reference only, and must be sole criterion in a class  

i.e., ACL rules copied as class match criteria at time of class creation, with class  
type 'any'  


implicit ACL 'deny all' rule also copied  
no nesting of class type 'acl'  
Regarding nested classes, referred to here as class references, a given class definition can contain  
at most one reference to another class, which can be combined with other match criteria. The  
referenced class is truly a reference and not a copy, since additions to a referenced class affect all  
classes that reference it. Changes to any class definition currently referenced by any other class  
must result in valid class definitions for all derived classes otherwise the change is rejected. A  
class reference may be removed from a class definition.  
The user can display summary and detailed information for classes, policies and services. All  
configuration information is accessible via the CLI, Web, and SNMP user interfaces.  
diffserv  
This command sets the DiffServ operational mode to active. While disabled, the DiffServ  
configuration is retained and can be changed, but it is not activated. When enabled, Diffserv

Class Commands  
The 'class' command set is used in DiffServ to define:  
Traffic Classification  
Specify Behavior Aggregate (BA), based on DSCP, and Multi-  
Field (MF) classes of traffic (name, match criteria)  
Service Levels  
Specify the BA forwarding classes / service levels. Conceptually,  
DiffServ is a two-level hierarchy of classes: 1. Service/PHB, 2.  
Traffic Class  
This set of commands consists of class creation/deletion and matching, with the class match  
commands specifying layer 3, layer 2, and general match criteria. The class match criteria are also  
known as class rules, with a class definition consisting of one or more rules to identify the traffic  
belonging to the class. Note that once a class match criterion is created for a class, it cannot be  
changed or deleted - the entire class must be deleted and re-created.  
The CLI command root is class-map.  
class-map  
This command defines a new DiffServ class of type match-all, match-any or match-access-group.  
The <classname> parameter is a case sensitive alphanumeric string from 1 to 31 characters  
uniquely identifying the class (Note: the class name 'default' is reserved and must not be used  
here).  
When used without any match condition, this command enters the class-map mode. The  
<classname> is the name of an existing DiffServ class (note: the class name 'default' is reserved  
and is not allowed here)

User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software  
The class type of match-all indicates all of the individual match conditions must be true for a  
packet to be considered a member of the class.  
The class type of match-any indicates only one of the match criteria must be true for a packet to  
belong to the class; multiple matching criteria are evaluated in a sequential order, with the highest  
precedence awarded to the first criterion defined for the class.  
The class type of match-access-group indicates the individual class match criteria are evaluated  
based on an access list (ACL). The <aclid> parameter is an integer specifying an existing ACL  
number (refer to the appropriate ACL documentation for the valid ACL number range). A match-  
access-group class type copies its set of match criteria from the current rule definition of the  
specified ACL number. All elements of a single ACL Rule are treated by DiffServ as a grouped  
set, similar to class type all. For any class, at least one class match condition must be specified for  
the class to be considered valid.  
Note: The class match conditions are obtained from the referenced access list at the time of class  
creation. Thus, any subsequent changes to the referenced ACL definition do not affect the  
DiffServ class. To pick up the latest ACL definition, the DiffServ class must be deleted and re-  
created.  
This command may be used without specifying a class type to enter the Class-Map Config mode  
for an existing DiffServ class.  
Note: The CLI mode is changed to Class-Map Config when this command is successfully  
executed.

To specify the match condition as a single keyword, the value for <portkey> is one of the supported  
port name keywords. The currently supported <portkey> values are: domain, echo, ftp, ftpdata, http,  
smtp, snmp, telnet, tftp, www. Each of these translates into its equivalent port number, which is used as  
both the start and end of a port range.  
To specify the match condition using a numeric notation, one layer 4 port number is required. The  
port number is an integer from 0 to 65535.  
To specify the match condition using a numeric range notation, two layer 4 port numbers are  
required and together they specify a contiguous port range. Each port number is an integer from 0

match ip dscp  
This command adds to the specified class definition a match condition based on the value of the IP  
DiffServ Code Point (DSCP) field in a packet, which is defined as the high-order six bits of the  
Service Type octet in the IP header (the low-order two bits are not checked). The optional [not]  
parameter has the effect of negating this match condition for the class (i.e., match all IP DSCP  
values except for what is specified here). The <dscpval> value is specified as either an integer from  
0 to 63, or symbolically through one of the following keywords: af11, af12, af13, af21, af22, af23, af31,

Note: The ip dscp, ip precedence, and ip tos match conditions are alternative ways to specify a  
match criterion for the same Service Type field in the IP header, but with a slightly different user  
notation.  
Note: To specify a match on all DSCP values, use the match [not] ip tos <tosbits> <tosmask>

match ip tos  
This command adds to the specified class definition a match condition based on the value of the IP  
TOS field in a packet, which is defined as all eight bits of the Service Type octet in the IP header.  
The value of <tosbits> is a two-digit hexadecimal number from 00 to ff. The value of <tosmask> is a  
two-digit hexadecimal number from 00 to ff. The optional [not] parameter has the effect of  
negating this match condition for the class (i.e., match all IP Precedence values except for what is  
specified here). The <tosmask> denotes the bit positions in <tosbits> that are used for comparison  
against the IP TOS field in a packet. For example, to check for an IP TOS value having bits 7 and  
5 set and bit 1 clear, where bit 7 is most significant, use a <tosbits> value of a0 (hex) and a  
<tosmask> of a2 (hex).  
Note: The ip dscp, ip precedence, and ip tos match conditions are alternative ways to specify a  
match criterion for the same Service Type field in the IP header, but with a slightly different user  
notation.  
Note: In essence, this the “free form” version of the IP DSCP/Precedence/TOS match specification  
in that the user has complete control of specifying which bits of the IP Service Type field are  
checked.

match protocol  
This command adds to the specified class definition a match condition based on the value of the IP  
Protocol field in a packet using a single keyword notation or a numeric value notation.  
To specify the match condition using a single keyword notation, the value for <protocol-name> is  
one of the supported protocol name keywords. The currently supported values are: icmp, igmp, ip,  
tcp, udp. Note that a value of ip is interpreted to match all protocol number values.  
To specify the match condition using a numeric value notation, the protocol number is a standard  
value assigned by IANA and is interpreted as an integer from 0 to 255. Note: This command does  
not validate the protocol number value against the current list defined by IANA.  
The optional [not] parameter has the effect of negating this match condition for the class (i.e.,  
match all IP Protocol numbers except for the one specified here).

User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software  
The DiffServ CLI does not necessarily require that users associate only one traffic class to one  
policy. In fact, multiple traffic classes can be associated with a single policy, each defining a  
particular treatment for packets that match the class definition. When a packet satisfies the  
conditions of more than one class, preference is based on the order in which the classes were added  
to the policy, with the foremost class taking highest precedence.  
This set of commands consists of policy creation/deletion, class addition/removal, and individual  
policy attributes. Note that the only way to remove an individual policy attribute from a class  
instance within a policy is to remove the class instance and re-add it to the policy. The values  
associated with an existing policy attribute can be changed without removing the class instance.  
The CLI command root is policy-map.

police-two-rate  
This command is used to establish the traffic policing style for the specified class. The two-rate  
form of the police command uses two data rates and two burst sizes, resulting in three outcomes:  
conform, exceed and violate. The first two data parameters are the conforming data rate and burst  
size. The conforming data rate is specified in kilobits-per-second (Kbps) and is an integer from 1  
to 4294967295, while the conforming burst size is specified in kilobytes (KB) as an integer from 1  
to 128. The next two data parameters are the peak data rate and burst size. The peak data rate is  
specified in kilobits-per-second (Kbps) as an integer from 1 to 4294967295, while the peak burst  
size is specified in kilobytes (KB) as an integer from 1 to 128. Note that the peak data rate must be  
equal to or greater than the conforming data rate.  
For each outcome, the only possible actions are drop, set-cos-transmit, set-sec-cos-transmit, set-

policy-map  
This command establishes a new DiffServ policy. The <policyname> parameter is a case-sensitive  
alphanumeric string from 1 to 31 characters uniquely identifying the policy. The type of policy is  
specific to either the inbound or outbound traffic direction as indicated by the {in | out} parameter.  
Note: The policy type dictates which of the individual policy attribute commands are valid within  
the policy definition.

randomdrop  
This command changes the active queue depth management scheme from the default tail drop to  
RED. The first two data parameters are the average queue depth minimum and maximum  
threshold values specified in bytes. The minimum threshold is an integer from 1 to 250000. The  
maximum threshold is an integer from 1 to 500000, but it must be equal to or greater than the  
minimum threshold. The third data parameter is the maximum drop probability and is an integer  
from 0 to 100. It indicates the percentage likelihood that a packet will be dropped when the  
average queue depth reaches the maximum threshold value.

The remaining parameters are all optional. The fourth data parameter is the sampling rate,  
indicating the period at which the queue is sampled for computing the average depth. Expressed in  
microseconds, the sampling rate is an integer from 0 to 1000000, with a default of 0 (meaning per-  
packet sampling). The last parameter is the decay exponent, which determines how quickly the  
average queue length calculation decays over time, with a higher number producing a faster rate of  
decay. This value is an integer from 0 to 16, with a default of 9.  
Note: The last two parameters, namely sampling rate and decay exponent, are hierarchically  
specified in this command. That is, in order to provide a value for the decay exponent <0-16>, the  
user is required to also specify a sampling rate <0-1000000>for proper command interpretation.

the understanding that it could be dropped by a downstream network element. Two rate parameters  
are used, a committed information rate and a peak information rate. Each of these rates is specified  
in kilobits-per-second (Kbps) and is an integer from 1 to 4294967295. The peak rate must be  
specified as equal to or greater than the committed rate.

Assign a DiffServ traffic conditioning policy (as specified by the  
policy commands) to an interface in the incoming direction  
Service Provisioning  
Assign a DiffServ service provisioning policy (as specified by the  
policy commands) to an interface in the outgoing direction  
The service commands attach a defined policy to a directional interface. Only one policy may be  
assigned at any one time to an interface in a particular direction. The policy type (in, out) must  
match the interface direction to which it is attached.  
This set of commands consists of service addition/removal.  
The CLI command root is service-policy  
service-policy  
This command attaches a policy to an interface in a particular direction. The command can be used  
in the Interface Config mode to attach a policy to a specific interface. Alternatively, the command  
can be used in the Global Config mode to attach this policy to all system interfaces. The direction  
value is either in or out. The <policyname>parameter is the name of an existing DiffServ policy,  
whose type must match the interface direction. Note that this command causes a service to create a  
reference to the policy.  
Note: This command effectively enables DiffServ on an interface (in a particular direction). There  
is no separate interface administrative 'mode' command for DiffServ.

Class of Service (CoS) Commands  
This chapter provides a detailed explanation of the software QoS CoS commands. The following  
commands are available in the software QOS module.  
The commands are divided into these different groups:  
Configuration Commands are used to configure features and options of the switch. For every  
configuration command there is a show command that will display the configuration setting.  
Show commands are used to display device settings, statistics and other information.  
Note: The 'Interface Config' mode only affects a single interface, whereas the 'Global Config'  
mode is applied to all interfaces.  
classofservice dot1p-mapping  
This command maps an 802.1p priority to an internal traffic class. The userpriority and  
trafficclass can both range from 0-7, although the actual number of available traffic classes  
depends on the platform. The 'no' form of this command is not supported.

Understanding Switch Stacks  
A switch stack is a set of up to eight Ethernet switches connected through their stacking ports. One  
of the switches controls the operation of the stack and is called the stack master. The stack master  
and the other switches in the stack are stack members. The stack members use stacking technology  
to behave and work together as a unified system. Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocols present the entire  
switch stack as a single entity to the network.  
The stack master is the single point of stack-wide management. From the stack master, you  
configure:  
System-level (global) features that apply to all stack members  
Interface-level features for all interfaces on any stack member

User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software  
A switch stack is identified in the network by its network IP address. The network IP address is  
assigned according to the MAC address of the stack master. Every stack member is uniquely  
identified by its own stack member number.  
All stack members are eligible stack masters. If the stack master becomes unavailable, the  
remaining stack members participate in electing a new stack master from among themselves. A set  
of factors determine which switch is elected the stack master. These factors are:  
1. The switch who is master always has priority to retain the role of master  
2. Assigned priority  
3. MAC address  
If the master cannot be selected by (1), then (2) is used. If (2) does not resolve which stack member  
becomes stack master, then (3) is used.  
The stack master contains the saved and running configuration files for the switch stack. The  
configuration files include the system-level settings for the switch stack and the interface-level  
settings for all stack members. Each stack member retains a copy of the saved file for backup  
purposes.  
If the master is removed from the stack, another member will be elected master, and will then run  
from that saved configuration.  
You can use these methods to manage switch stacks:  
Stack web interface  
Command line interface (CLI) over a serial connection to the console port of the master  
A network management application through the Simple Network Management Protocol  
(SNMP)  
Switch Stack Membership  
A switch stack has up to eight stack members connected through their stacking ports. A switch  
stack always has one stack master.  
A standalone switch is a switch stack with one stack member that also operates as the stack master.  
You can connect one standalone switch to another to create a switch stack containing two stack  
members, with one of them being the stack master. You can connect standalone switches to an  
existing switch stack to increase the stack membership.

User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software  
If you replace a stack member with an identical model, the new switch functions with exactly the  
same configuration as the replaced switch, assuming that the new switch is using the same member  
number as the replaced switch. For information about the benefits of preconfiguring a switch  
The operation of the switch stack continues uninterrupted during membership changes unless you  
remove the stack master or you add powered-on standalone switches or switch stacks.  
Adding powered-on switches (merging) causes the stack masters of the merging switch stacks  
to elect a stack master from among themselves. The re-elected stack master retains its role and  
configuration and so do its stack members. All remaining switches, including the former stack  
masters, reload and join the switch stack as stack members. They change their stack member  
numbers to the lowest available numbers and use the stack configuration of the re-elected  
stack master. Therefore, when you merge two powered stacks, you cannot control which unit  
becomes stack master and which configuration is used. For these reasons, it is recommended  
that powered switches be powered down before adding to an existing operating stack.  
Removing powered-on stack members can cause the switch stack to divide (partition) into two  
or more switch stacks, each with the same configuration. However, if cabled properly, the  
switch stack should not divide.  
If the switch stack divides, and you want the switch stacks to remain separate, change the  
IP address or addresses of the newly created switch stacks.  
If you did not intend to partition the switch stack:  
Power off the newly created switch stacks  
Reconnect them to the original switch stack through their stacking ports  
Power on the switches

User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software  
Stack Master Election and Re-Election  
The stack master is elected or re-elected based on one of these factors and in the order listed:  
1. The switch that is currently the stack master  
2. The switch with the highest stack member priority value  
Note: Netgear recommends assigning the highest priority value to the switch that you prefer to  
be the stack master. This ensures that the switch is re-electedas stack master if a re-election  
occurs.  
3. The switch with the higher MAC address  
A stack master retains its role unless one of these events occurs:  
The stack master is removed from the switch stack  
The stack master is reset or powered off  
The stack master has failed  
The switch stack membership is increased by adding powered-on standalone switches or  
switch stacks  
In the case of a master re-election, the new stack master becomes available after a few seconds. In  
the meantime, the switch stack uses the forwarding tables in memory to minimize network  
disruption. The physical interfaces on the other available stack members are not affected while a  
new stack master is elected.  
If a new stack master is elected and the previous stack master becomes available, the previous  
stack master does not resume its role as stack master.  
Stack Member Numbers  
A stack member number (1 to 8) identifies each member in the switch stack. The member number  
also determines the interface-level configuration that a stack member uses. You can display the  
stack member number by using the show switch user EXEC command.  
A new, out-of-the-box switch (one that has not joined a switch stack or has not been manually  
assigned a stack member number) ships with a default stack member number of 1. When it joins a  
switch stack, its default stack member number changes to the lowest available member number in  
the stack.

User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software  
Stack members in the same switch stack cannot have the same stack member number. Every stack  
member, including a standalone switch, retains its member number until you manually change the  
number or unless the number is already being used by another member in the stack.  
Stack Member Priority Values  
A stack member priority can be changed if the user would like change who is the master of the  
stack. Use the following command to change stack member's priority (this command is in the  
global config mode):  
switch unit priority value  
Switch Stack Offline Configuration  
You can use the offline configuration feature to preconfigure (supply a configuration to) a new  
switch before it joins the switch stack. You can configure in advance the stack member number,  
the switch type, and the interfaces associated with a switch that is not currently part of the stack.  
Effects of Adding a Preconfigured Switch to a Switched Stack  
When you add a preconfigured switch to the switch stack, the stack applies either the  
preconfigured configuration or the default configuration. Table 12-1 lists the events that occur  
when the switch stack compares the preconfigured configuration with the new switch:

Scenario  
Results of comparing the preconfiguration with the new switch  
Result  
The stack member numbers and the switch types  
match.  
The switch stack applies the configuration to the  
preconfigured new switch and adds it to the stack.  
• If the stack member number of the preconfigured  
switch matches the stack member number in the  
configuration on the stack, and  
• If the switch type of the preconfigured switch  
matches the switch type in the configuration on  
the stack.  
The stack member numbers match but the switch  
types do not match.  
• If the stack member number of the preconfigured  
switch matches the stack member number in the  
configuration on the stack, but  
• The switch stack applies the default configuration  
to the preconfigured switch and adds it to the  
stack.  
• The configuration in the preconfigured switch is  
changed to reflect the new information.  
• The switch type of the preconfigured switch does  
not match the switch type in the configuration on  
the stack.  
The stack member number is not found in the  
configuration.  
• The switch stack applies the default configuration  
to the new switch and adds it to the stack.  
• The preconfigured information is changed to  
reflect the new information.  
The stack member number of the preconfigured  
switch is not found in the configuration.  
The switch stack applies the default configuration to  
the preconfigured switch and adds it to the stack.  
Effects of Replacing a Preconfigured Switch in a Switch Stack  
When a preconfigured switch in a switch stack fails, is removed from the stack, and is replaced  
with another switch, the stack applies either the preconfiguration or the default configuration to it.  
The events that occur when the switch stack compares the configuration with the preconfigured  
switch are the same as those described in “Effects of Adding a Preconfigured Switch to a Switched  
Effects of Removing a Preconfigured Switch from a Switch Stack  
If you remove a preconfigured switch from the switch stack, the configuration associated with the  
removed stack member remains in the running configuration as configured information. To  
completely remove the configuration, use the no member unit_number (this is in the stacking  
configuration mode).

Switch Stack Software Compatibility Recommendations  
All stack members must run the same software version to ensure compatibility between stack  
members. The software versions on all stack members, including the stack master, must be the  
same. This helps ensure full compatibility in the stack protocol version among the stack members.  
If a stack member is running a software version that is not the same as the stack master, then the  
stack member is not allowed to join the stack. Use the show switch command to list the stack  
members and software versions. See “Code Mismatch” on page 12-16.  
Incompatible Software and Stack Member Image Upgrades  
You can upgrade a switch that has an incompatible software image by using the archive  
download-sw xmodem | ymodem | zmodem | tftp://ip/filepath/filename command (this is in the  
stacking configuration mode). It copies the software image from an existing stack member to the  
one with incompatible software. That switch automatically reloads and joins the stack as a fully  
functioning member.  
Switch Stack Configuration Files  
The configuration files record settings for all global and interface specific settings that define the  
operation of the stack and individual members. Once a save config command is issued, all stack  
members store a copy of the configuration settings. If a stack master becomes unavailable, any  
stack member assuming the role of stack master will operate from the saved configuration files.  
When a new, out-of-box switch joins a switch stack, it uses the system-level settings of that switch  
stack. However, if you want it to store this system level configuration, you must issue a save  
config command.  
You back up and restore the stack configuration in the same way as you would for standalone  
switch configuration by using the copy command.

Switch Stack Management Connectivity  
You manage the switch stack and the stack member interfaces through the stack master. You can  
use the web interface, the CLI, and SNMP. You cannot manage stack members on an individual  
switch basis.  
Connectivity to the Switch Stack Through Console Ports  
You can connect to the stack master through the console port of the stack master only.  
Connectivity to the Switch Stack Through Telnet  
You can connect to the stack master using telnet by telnetting to the ip address of the stack.

General Practices  
When issuing a command (such as move management, or renumber), it is recommended that  
the command has fully completed before issuing the next command. For example, if a reset is  
issued to a stack member, use the “show port” command to verify that the unit has remerged  
with the stack, and all ports are joined before issuing the next command.  
When physically removing or relocating a unit, always power down the unit before  
disconnecting stack cables.  
When reconnecting stack cables, connect them before powering up the unit, if possible, and  
insure a good connection by tightening all connector screws (where applicable).  
Initial installation and Power-up of a Stack  
1. Install units in rack.  
2. Install all stacking cables. Fully connect, including the redundant stack link. It is highly  
recommended that a redundant link be installed.  
3. Identify the unit to be the master. Power this unit up first.  
4. Monitor the console port. Allow this unit to come up to the login prompt. If unit has the default  
configuration, it should come up as unit #1, and will automatically become a master unit. If  
not, renumber as desired.  
5. If desired, preconfigure other units to be added to the stack. Preconfiguration is described in  
6. Power on a second unit, making sure it is adjacent (next physical unit in the stack) to the unit  
already powered up. This will insure the second unit comes up as a member of the stack, and  
not a “Master” of a separate stack.  
7. Monitor the master unit to see that the second unit joins the stack. Use the “show switch”  
command to determine when the unit joins the stack. It will be assigned a unit number (unit  
#2, if it has the default configuration).  
8. Renumber this stack unit, if desired. See section Renumbering Stack Members on  
recommendations for renumbering stack members.  
9. Repeat steps 6 through 8 to add additional members to the stack. Always power on a unit  
adjacent to the units already in the stack.

Removing a Unit from the Stack  
1. Make sure the redundant stack connection is in place and functional. All stack members  
should be connected in a logical ring.  
2. Power down the unit to be removed.  
3. Disconnect stack cables.  
4. If unit is not to be replaced, reconnect the stack cable from the stack member above to the  
stack member below the unit being removed.  
5. Remove unit from the rack.  
6. If desired, remove the unit from the configuration by issuing the command:  
no member <unit-id>  
Adding a Unit to an Operating Stack  
1. Make sure the redundant stack connection is in place and functional. All stack members  
should be connected in a logical ring.  
2. Preconfigure the new unit, if desired.  
3. Install new unit in the rack. (Assumes installation below the bottom-most unit, or above the  
top-most unit).  
4. Disconnect the redundant stack cable that connects the last unit in the stack back up to the first  
unit in the stack at the position in the ring where the new unit is to be inserted.  
5. Connect this cable to the new unit, following the established order of “stack up” to “stack  
down” connections  
6. Power up the new unit. Verify, by monitoring the master unit console port, that the new unit  
successfully joins the stack by issuing the show switch command. The new unit should always  
join as a “member” (never as master; the existing master of the stack should not change).  
7. If the code version of the newly added member is not the same as the existing stack, update the  
code as described in section Upgrading Firmware.  
Replacing a Stack Member with a New Unit  
There are two possible situations here. First, if you replace a stack member of a certain model  
number with another unit of the same model, follow the process below:

stack with the following exceptions:  
Insert the new member in the same position in the stack as the one removed.  
Preconfiguration described in step Preconfigure the new unit, if desired. of that procedure  
is not required.  
Second, if you replace a stack member with another unit of a different model number, use the  
following process:  
Follow the process in section Removing a Unit from the Stack to remove the desired stack  
member.  
Remove the now-absent stack member from the configuration by issuing the command no  
member command.  
Add the new stack unit to the stack using the process described in section Adding a Unit to an  
Operating Stack. The unit can be inserted into the same position as the unit just removed, or  
the unit can be inserted at the bottom of the stack. In either case, make sure all stack cables are  
connected with the exception of the cable at the position where the new unit is to be inserted to  
insure that the stack does not get divided into two separate stacks, causing the election of a  
new master.  
Renumbering Stack Members  
1. If particular numbering is required, it is recommended that stack members be assigned specific  
numbers when they are first installed and configured in the stack, if possible.  
2. If the desired stack unit number for a particular unit is unused, a unit can be renumbered  
simply by using the switch <oldunit-id> renumber <newunit-id> CLI command. This  
command is found in global config mode.  
3. If the newunit-id has been preconfigured, you may need to remove the newunit-id from the  
configuration before renumbering the unit.  
4. If reassignment of multiple existing stack unit numbers is necessary, there are a number of  
implications in terms of mismatching of configuration. In this case, it is recommended that all  
units except the master be powered down and added back one at a time using the procedure in

Moving a Master to a Different Unit in the Stack  
1. Using the “movemanagement” command, move the master to the desired unit number. The  
operation may take between 30 seconds and 3 minutes depending on the stack size and  
configuration. The command is movemanagement <fromunit-id> <tounit-id>  
2. Make sure that you can log in on the console attached to the new master. Use the show switch  
command to verify that all units rejoined the stack.  
3. It is recommended that the stack be reset with the reload command after moving the master.  
Removing a Master Unit from an Operating Stack  
1. First, move the designated master to a different unit in the stack using “Moving a Master to a  
2. Second, using “Removing a Unit from the Stack” on page 12-12, remove the unit from the  
stack.  
Merging Two Operational Stacks  
1. It is strongly recommended that two functioning stacks (each having an independent master)  
not be merged simply by the reconnection of stack cables. That process may result in a number  
of unpredictable results and should be avoided.  
2. Always power off all units in one stack before connecting into another stack.  
3. Add the units as a group by unplugging one stacking cable in the operational stack and  
physically connecting all unpowered units at that point.  
4. Completely cable the stacking connections, making sure the redundant link is also in place.  
5. Then, power up each unit, one at a time, by following “Adding a Unit to an Operating Stack”

Preconfiguration  
1. General Information: All configuration on the stack except unit numbers is stored on the  
management unit. This means that a stack unit may be replaced with another device of the  
same type without having to reconfigure the switch. Unit numbers are stored independently on  
each switch, so that after power cycling the stack the units always come back with the same  
unit numbers. The unit type associated with each unit number may be learned by the  
management unit automatically as the units are connected or preconfigured by the  
administrator.  
2. Issue the member <unit-id> <switchindex> command to preconfigure a unit. Supported unit  
types are shown by the show supported switchtype command.  
3. Next, configure the unit you just defined with configuration commands, just as if the unit were  
physically present.  
4. Ports for the preconfigured unit come up in “detached” state and can be seen with the show  
port all command. The detached ports may now be configured for VLAN membership and  
any other port-specific configuration.  
5. After a unit type is preconfigured for a specific unit number, attaching a unit with different unit  
type for this unit number causes the switch to report an error. The show switch command  
indicates “config mismatch” for the new unit and the ports on that unit don’t come up. To  
resolve this situation the customer may change the unit number of the mismatched unit or  
delete the preconfigured unit type using the no member <unit-id> command.  
Upgrading Firmware  
1. New code is downloaded via TFTP or xmodem to the management unit using the copy  
command. Once code is successfully loaded on the management unit, it automatically  
propagates the code to the other units in the stack. If some error occurs during code  
propagation to stack units then the archive command (in stack configuration mode) may be  
issued to make another attempt to copy the software to the unit(s) that did not get updated.  
Errors during code propagation to stack members could be caused by stack cable movement or  
unit reconfiguration during the propagation phase. An error could also occur in the presence of  
excessive network traffic (such as a broadcast event).

2. All units in the stack must run the same code version. Ports on stack units that don’t match the  
management unit code version don’t come up and the show switch command shows a “code  
mismatch” error. To resolve this situation the administrator may issue archive command. This  
command copies management unit’s software to the other units with mismatched code version.  
Before issuing this command, be sure the code running on the management unit is the desired  
code revision for all units in the stack. Once code is loaded to all members of the stack, the  
units must be reset in order for the new code to start running.  
Migration of Configuration With a Firmware Upgrade  
In some cases, a configuration may not be carried forward in a code update. For updates where this  
issue is to be expected, the following procedure should be followed:  
1. Save the current configuration by uploading it from the stack, using the copy command from  
the CLI.  
2. Load new code into the stack manager. Reboot the stack.  
3. Upon reboot, go into the boot menu and erase the configuration (“restore to factory defaults”)  
4. Continue with boot of operational code.  
5. Once the stack is up, download the saved configuration back to the master. This configuration  
should then be automatically propagated to all members of the stack  
Code Mismatch  
If a unit is added to a stack and it does not have the same version of code as that of the master, the  
following should happen:  
“New” unit will boot up and become a “member” of the stack  
Ports on the added unit should remain in the “detached” state  
A message should appear on the CLI indicating a code mismatch with the newly added unit.  
To have the newly added unit to merge normally with the stack, code should be loaded to the  
newly added unit from the master using the copy command. The newly added member should  
then be reset, and should reboot normally and join the stack.

Appendix B  
Cabling Guidelines  
This appendix provides specifications for cables used with a NETGEAR NETGEAR 7300S Series  
Layer 3 Managed Switch.  
Fast Ethernet Cable Guidelines  
Fast Ethernet uses UTP cable, as specified in the IEEE 802.3u standard for 100BASE-TX.The  
specification requires Category 5 UTP cable consisting of either two-pair or four-pair twisted  
insulated copper conductors bound in a single plastic sheath. Category 5 cable is certified up to  
100 MHz bandwidth. 100BASE-TX operation uses one pair of wires for transmission and the  
other pair for receiving and for collision detection.  
When installing Category 5 UTP cabling, use the following guidelines to ensure that your cables  
perform to the following specifications:  
Certification  
Make sure that your Category 5 UTP cable has completed the Underwriters’ Laboratories (UL) or  
Electronic Testing Laboratories (ETL) certification process.  
Termination method  
To minimize cross-talk noise, maintain the twist ratio of the cable up to the point of termination;  
untwist at any RJ-45 plug or patch panel should not exceed 0.5 inch (1.5 cm).

User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software  
Category 5 Cable  
Category 5 distributed cable that meets ANSI/EIA/TIA-568-A building wiring standards can be a  
maximum of 328 feet (ft.) or 100 meters (m) in length, divided as follows:  
20 ft. (6 m) between the hub and the patch panel (if used)  
295 ft. (90 m) from the wiring closet to the wall outlet  
10 ft. (3 m) from the wall outlet to the desktop device  
The patch panel and other connecting hardware must meet the requirements for 100 Mbps  
operation (Category 5). Only 0.5 inch (1.5 cm) of untwist in the wire pair is allowed at any  
termination point.  
Category 5 Cable Specifications  
Ensure that the fiber cable is crossed over to guarantee link.  
The Table below lists the electrical requirements of Category 5 UTP cable.

Twisted Pair Cables  
For two devices to communicate, the transmitter of each device must be connected to the receiver  
of the other device. The crossover function is usually implemented internally as part of the  
circuitry in the device. Computers and workstation adapter cards are usually media-dependent  
interface ports, called MDI or uplink ports. Most repeaters and switch ports are configured as  
media-dependent interfaces with built-in crossover ports, called MDI-X or normal ports. Auto  
Uplink technology automatically senses which connection, MDI or MDI-X, is needed and makes  
the right connection.

Patch Panels and Cables  
If you are using patch panels, make sure that they meet the 100BASE-TX requirements. Use  
Category 5 UTP cable for all patch cables and work area cables to ensure that your UTP patch  
cable rating meets or exceeds the distribution cable rating.  
To wire patch panels, you need two Category 5 UTP cables with an RJ-45 plug at each end, as  
shown here.

Note: Flat “silver satin” telephone cable may have the same RJ-45 plug. However, using telephone  
cable results in excessive collisions, causing the attached port to be partitioned or disconnected  
from the network.  
Using 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet over Category 5 Cable  
When using the new 1000BASE-T standard, the limitations of cable installations and the steps  
necessary to ensure optimum performance must be considered. The most important components in  
your cabling system are patch panel connections, twists of the pairs at connector transition points,  
the jacket around the twisted-pair cable, bundling of multiple pairs on horizontal runs and punch  
down blocks. All of these factors affect the performance of 1000BASE-T technology if not  
correctly implemented. The following sections are designed to act as a guide to correct cabling for  
1000BASE-T.  
Cabling  
The 1000BASE-T product is designed to operate over Category 5 cabling. To further enhance the  
operation, the cabling standards have been amended. The latest standard is Category 5e, which  
defines a higher level of link performance than is available with Category 5 cable.  
If installing new cable, we recommend using Category 5e cable, since it costs about the same as  
Category 5 cable. If using the existing cable, be sure to have the cable plant tested by a  
professional who can verify that it meets or exceeds either ANSI/EIA/TIA-568-A:1995 or ISO/  
IEC 11801:1995 Category 5 specifications.  
Length  
The maximum distance limitation between two pieces of equipment is 100 m, as per the original  
Ethernet specification. The end-to-end link is called the “channel.”  
TSB-67 defines the “Basic Link” which is the portion of the link that is part of the building  
infrastructure. This excludes patch and equipment cords. The maximum basic link length is 295  
feet (90 m).  
Return Loss  
Return loss measures the amount of reflected signal energy resulting from impedance changes in  
the cabling link. The nature of 1000BASE-T renders this measurement very important; if too much  
energy is reflected back on to the receiver, the device does not perform optimally.

User Manual for the NETGEAR 7300S Series Layer 3 Managed Switch Software  
Unlike 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX, which use only two of the four pairs of wires within the  
Category 5, 1000BASE-T uses all four pairs of the twisted pair. Make sure all wires are tested ⎯  
this is important.  
Factors that affect the return loss are:  
The number of transition points, as there is a connection via an RJ-45 to another connector, a patch  
panel, or device at each transition point.  
Removing the jacket that surrounds the four pairs of twisted cable. It is highly recommended that,  
when RJ-45 connections are made, this is minimized to 1-1/4 inch (32 mm).  
Untwisting any pair of the twisted-pair cabling. It is important that any untwisting be minimized to  
3/8 inch (10 mm) for RJ-45 connections.  
Cabling or bundling of multiple Category 5 cables. This is regulated by ANSI/EIA/TIA-568A-3. If  
not correctly implemented, this can adversely affect all cabling parameters.  
Near End Cross Talk (NEXT)  
This is a measure of the signal coupling from one wire to another, within a cable assembly, or  
among cables within a bundle. NEXT measures the amount of cross-talk disturbance energy that is  
detected at the near end of the link — the end where the transmitter is located. NEXT measures the  
amount of energy that is “returned” to the sender end. The factors that affect NEXT and cross talk  
are exactly the same as outlined in the Return Loss section. The cross-talk performance is directly  
related to the quality of the cable installation.  
Patch Cables  
When installing your equipment, replace old patch panel cables that do not meet Category 5e  
specifications. As pointed out in the NEXT section, this near end piece of cable is critical for  
successful operation.  
RJ-45 Plug and RJ-45 Connectors  
In a Fast Ethernet network, it is important that all 100BASE-T certified Category 5 cabling use  
RJ-45 plugs. The RJ-45 plug accepts 4-pair UTP or shielded twisted-pair (STP) 100-ohm cable  
and connects into the RJ-45 connector. The RJ-45 connector is used to connect stations, hubs, and  
switches through UTP cable; it supports 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps data transmission.

Conclusion  
For optimum performance of your 1000BASE-T product, it is important to fully qualify your cable  
installation and ensure it meets or exceeds ANSI/EIA/TIA-568-A:1995 or ISO/IEC 11801:1995  
Category 5 specifications. Install Category 5e cable where possible, including patch panel cables.  
Minimize transition points, jacket removal, and untwist lengths. Bundling of cables must be  
properly installed to meet the requirements in ANSI/EIA/TIA-568A-3.

Glossary  
Use the list below to find definitions for technical terms used in this manual.  
Numeric  
802.1D  
The IEEE designator for Spanning Tree Protocol (STP). STP, a link management protocol, is part of the  
802.1D standard for media access control bridges. Using the spanning tree algorithm, STP provides path  
redundancy while preventing endless loops in a network. An endless loop is created by multiple active paths  
between stations where there are alternate routes between hosts. To establish path redundancy, STP creates a  
logical tree that spans all of the switches in an extended network, forcing redundant paths into a standby, or  
blocked, state. STP allows only one active path at a time between any two network devices (this prevents the  
loops) but establishes the redundant links as a backup if the initial link should fail. If STP costs change, or if  
one network segment in the STP becomes unreachable, the spanning tree algorithm reconfigures the  
spanning tree topology and reestablishes the link by activating the standby path. Without spanning tree in  
place, it is possible that both connections may be simultaneously live, which could result in an endless loop  
of traffic on the LAN.  
802.1P  
The IEEE protocol designator for Local Area Network (LAN). This Layer 2 network standard improves  
support of time critical traffic, and limits the extent of high bandwidth multicast traffic within a bridged  
LAN. To do this, 802.1P defines a methodology for introducing traffic class priorities. The 802.1P standard  
allows priority to be defined in all 802 MAC protocols (Ethernet, Token Bus, Token Ring), as well as in  
FDDI. For protocols (such as Ethernet) that do not contain a priority field, 802.1P specifies a method for  
indicating frame priority based on the new fields defined in the 802.1Q (VLAN) standard.  
802.1Q VLAN  
The IEEE protocol designator for Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN). This standard provides VLAN  
identification and quality of service (QoS) levels. Four bytes are added to an Ethernet frame to allow eight  
priority levels (QoS) and to identify up to 4096 VLANs. See “VLAN” on page 21 for more information.  
10BASE-T  
The IEEE specification for 10 Mbps Ethernet over Category 3, 4, or 5 twisted-pair cable.  
100BASE-FX  
The IEEE specification for 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet over fiber-optic cable.

A
ABR  
Access Control List  
An ACL is a database that an Operating System uses to track each user’s access rights to system objects  
(such as file directories and/or files).  
ACL  
Address Resolution Protocol  
An Internet Protocol that dynamically maps Internet addresses to physical (hardware) addresses on a LAN.  
Advanced Network Device Layer/Software  
Term for the Device Driver level.  
Aging  
When an entry for a node is added to the lookup table of a switch, it is given a timestamp. Each time a packet  
is received from a node, the timestamp is updated. The switch has a user-configurable timer that erases the  
entry after a certain length of time with no activity from that node.  
Area Border Router  
A router located on the border of one or more OSPF areas that connects those areas to the backbone  
network. ABRs are considered members of both the OSPF backbone and the attached areas. They therefore  
maintain routing tables describing both the backbone topology and the topology of the other areas. (Cisco  
Systems Inc.)

ASBR  
Autonomous System Boundary Router  
ABR located between an OSPF autonomous system and a non-OSPF network. ASBRs run both OSPF and  
another routing protocol, such as RIP. ASBRs must reside in a non-stub OSPF area. See also ABR, non-stub  
area, and OSPF. (Cisco Systems Inc.)  
Auto-negotiation  
A feature that allows twisted-pair ports to advertise their capabilities for speed, duplex and flow control.  
When connected to a port that also supports auto-negotiation, the link can automatically configure itself to  
the optimum setup.  
Auto Uplink  
Auto UplinkTM technology (also called MDI/MDIX) eliminates the need to worry about crossover vs.  
straight-through Ethernet cables. Auto UplinkTM will accommodate either type of cable to make the right  
connection.  
AVL tree  
Binary tree having the property that for any node in the tree, the difference in height between the left and  
right subtrees of that node is no more than 1.  
B
BPDU  
Backbone  
The part of a network used as a primary path for transporting traffic between network segments.  
Bandwidth  
The information capacity, measured in bits per second, that a channel could transmit. Bandwidth examples  
include 10 Mbps for Ethernet, 100 Mbps for Fast Ethernet, and 1000 Mbps (I Gbps) for Gigabit Ethernet.

Bridge Protocol Data Unit  
BPDU is the IEEE 802.1D MAC Bridge Management protocol that is the standard implementation of STP  
(Spanning Tree Protocol). It uses the STP algorithm to insure that physical loops in the network topology do  
not result in logical looping of network traffic. Using one bridge configured as root for reference, the BPDU  
switches one of two bridges forming a network loop into standby mode, so that only one side of a potential  
loop passes traffic. By examining frequent 802.1d configuration updates, a bridge in the standby mode can  
switch automatically into the forward mode if the other bridge forming the loop fails.  
Broadcast  
A packet sent to all devices on a network.  
Broadcast storm  
Multiple simultaneous broadcasts that typically absorb all the available network bandwidth and can cause a  
network to fail. Broadcast storms can be due to faulty network devices or network loops.  
C
Cat 5  
Category 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cabling. An Ethernet network operating at 10 Mbits/second  
(10BASE-T) will often tolerate low quality cables, but at 100 Mbits/second (10BASE-Tx) the cable must be  
rated as Category 5, or Cat 5 or Cat V, by the Electronic Industry Association (EIA).  
This rating will be printed on the cable jacket. Cat 5 cable contains eight conductors, arranged in four  
twisted pairs, and terminated with an RJ45 type connector. In addition, there are restrictions on maximum  
cable length for both 10 and 100 Mbits/second networks.  
Capacity planning  
Determining whether current solutions can satisfy future demands. Capacity planning includes evaluating  
potential workload and infrastructure changes.  
Checksum  
A simple error-detection scheme in which each transmitted message is identified with a numerical value  
based on the number of set bits in the message. The receiving station then applies a formula to the message  
and checks to make sure the accompanying numerical value is the same. If not, the receiver can assume that  
the message has been corrupted.

Collision  
A term used to describe two colliding packets in an Ethernet network. Collisions are a part of normal  
Ethernet operation, but a sudden prolonged increase in the number of collisions can indicate a problem with

Common Open Policy Service Protocol  
A proposed standard protocol for exchanging network policy information between a Policy Decision Point  
(PDP) in a network and Policy Enforcement Points (PEPs) as part of overall Quality of Service (QoS) - the  
allocation of network traffic resources according to desired priorities of service. The policy decision point  
might be a network server controlled directly by the network administrator who enters policy statements  
about which kinds of traffic (voice, bulk data, video, teleconferencing, and so forth) should get the highest  
priority. The policy enforcement points might be router or layer 3 switches that implement the policy  
choices as traffic moves through the network. Currently, COPS is designed for use with the Resource  
Reservation Protocol (RSVP), which lets you allocate traffic priorities in advance for temporary  
high-bandwidth requirements (for example, video broadcasts or multicasts). It is possible that COPS will be  
extended to be a general policy communications protocol.

Differentiated Services  
Diffserv is a protocol for specifying and controlling network traffic by class so that certain types of traffic  
get precedence - for example, voice traffic, which requires a relatively uninterrupted flow of data, might get  
precedence over other kinds of traffic. Differentiated Services is the most advanced method for managing  
traffic in terms of what is called Class of Service (CoS). Unlike the earlier mechanisms of 802.1P tagging  
and Type of Service (ToS), Differentiated Services avoids simple priority tagging and depends on more

complex policy or rule statements to determine how to forward a given network packet. An analogy is made  
to travel services, in which a person can choose among different modes of travel - train, bus, airplane -  
degree of comfort, the number of stops on the route, standby status, the time of day or period of year for the  
trip, and so forth. For a given set of packet travel rules, a packet is given one of 64 possible forwarding  
behaviors - known as per hop behaviors (PHBs). A six-bit field, known as the Differentiated Services Code  
Point (DSCP), in the Internet Protocol (Internet Protocol) header specifies the per hop behavior for a given  
flow of packets. Differentiated Services and the Class of Service approach provide a way to control traffic  
that is both more flexible and more scalability than the Quality of Service approach.  
Diffserv  
DNS  
Short for Domain Name System (or Service), an Internet service that translates domain names into IP  
addresses.  
Because domain names are alphabetic, they're easier to remember. The Internet however, is really based on  
IP addresses. Every time you use a domain name, therefore, a DNS service must translate the name into the  
corresponding IP address. For example, the domain name www.example.com might translate to  
198.105.232.4. The DNS system is, in fact, its own network. If one DNS server doesn't know how to  
translate a particular domain name, it asks another one, and so on, until the correct IP address is returned.  
Domain Name  
A descriptive name for an address or group of addresses on the Internet. Domain names are of the form of a  
registered entity name plus one of a number of predefined top level suffixes such as .com, .edu, .uk, etc. For  
example, in the address mail.NETGEAR.com, mail is a server name and NETGEAR.com is the domain.  
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol  
DHCP is a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing,  
a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some systems, the device's  
IP address can even change while it is still connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP  
addresses. Dynamic addressing simplifies network administration because the software tracks IP addresses  
rather than requiring an administrator to manage the task. A new computer can be added to a network  
without the hassle of manually assigning it a unique IP address.

Filtering  
The process of screening a packet for certain characteristics, such as source address, destination address, or  
protocol. Filtering is used to determine whether traffic is to be forwarded, and can also prevent unauthorized  
access to a network or network devices.  
Flow Control  
The process of adjusting the flow of data from one network device to another to ensure that the receiving  
device can handle all of the incoming data. This is particularly important where the sending device is  
capable of sending data much faster than the receiving device can receive it. There are many flow control  
mechanisms. One of the most common flow control protocols for asynchronous communication is called  
xon-xoff. In this case, the receiving device sends a an “xoff” message to the sending device when its buffer  
is full. The sending device then stops sending data. When the receiving device is ready to receive more data,  
it sends an “xon” signal.  
Forwarding  
When a frame is received on an input port on a switch, the address is checked against the lookup table. If the  
lookup table has recorded the destination address, the frame is automatically forwarded on an output port.

Internet Control Message Protocol  
ICMP is an extension to the Internet Protocol (IP) that supports packets containing error, control, and  
informational messages. The PING command, for example, uses ICMP to test an Internet connection.  
Internet Group Management Protocol  
IGMP is the standard for IP Multicasting on the Internet. IGMP is used to establish host memberships in  
particular multicast groups on a single network. The mechanisms of the protocol allow a host to inform its  
local router, using Host Membership Reports, that it wants to receive messages addressed to a specific  
multicast group. All hosts conforming to Level 2 of the IP Multicasting specification require IGMP.  
IP  
IP Multicasting  
Sending out data to distributed servers on the MBone (Multicast Backbone). For large amounts of data, IP  
Multicast is more efficient than normal Internet transmissions because the server can broadcast a message to  
many recipients simultaneously. Unlike traditional Internet traffic that requires separate connections for each  
source-destination pair, IP Multicasting allows many recipients to share the same source. This means that  
just one set of packets is transmitted for all the destinations.  
Internet Protocol  
The method or protocol by which data is sent from one computer to another on the Internet. Each computer  
(known as a host) on the Internet has at least one IP address that uniquely identifies it among all other  
computers on the Internet. When you send or receive data (for example, an e-mail note or a Web page), the  
message gets divided into little chunks called packets. Each of these packets contains both the sender's  
Internet address and the receiver's address. Any packet is sent first to a gateway computer that understands a  
small part of the Internet. The gateway computer reads the destination address and forwards the packet to an  
adjacent gateway that in turn reads the destination address and so forth across the Internet until one gateway  
recognizes the packet as belonging to a computer within its immediate neighborhood or domain. That  
gateway then forwards the packet directly to the computer whose address is specified.  
Because a message is divided into a number of packets, each packet can, if necessary, be sent by a different  
route across the Internet. Packets can arrive in a different order than they were sent. The Internet Protocol  
just delivers them. It's up to another protocol, the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) to put them back in  
the right order. IP is a connectionless protocol, which means that there is no continuing connection between  
the end points that are communicating. Each packet that travels through the Internet is treated as an  
independent unit of data without any relation to any other unit of data. (The reason the packets do get put in  
the right order is because of TCP, the connection-oriented protocol that keeps track of the packet sequence in  
a message.) In the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) communication model, IP is in Layer 3, the  
Networking Layer. The most widely used version of IP today is IP version 4 (IPv4). However, IP version 6  
(IPv6) is also beginning to be supported. IPv6 provides for much longer addresses and therefore for the  
possibility of many more Internet users. IPv6 includes the capabilities of IPv4 and any server that can  
support IPv6 packets can also support IPv4 packets.

A set of protocols for accessing information directories. LDAP is based on the standards contained within  
the X.500 standard, but is significantly simpler. Unlike X.500, LDAP supports TCP/IP, which is necessary  
for any type of Internet access. Although not yet widely implemented, LDAP should eventually make it  
possible for almost any application running on virtually any computer platform to obtain directory

MPLS  
Multicast Backbone  
The MBONE is a virtual network. It is layered on top of portions of the physical Internet to support routing  
of IP multicast packets since that function has not yet been integrated into many production routers. The  
network is composed of islands that can directly support IP multicast, such as multicast LANs like Ethernet,  
linked by virtual point-to-point links called "tunnels". The tunnel endpoints are typically workstation-class  
machines having operating system support for IP multicast and running the "mrouted" multicast routing  
daemon.  
Multicasting  
To transmit a message to specific recipients across a network. A simple example of multicasting is sending  
an e-mail message to a mailing list. Teleconferencing and videoconferencing also use multicasting, but  
require more robust protocols and networks. Standards are being developed to support multicasting over a  
TCP/IP network such as the Internet. These standards, IP Multicast and Mbone, will allow users to easily  
join multicast groups. Note that multicasting refers to sending a message to a select group whereas  
broadcasting refers to sending a message to everyone connected to a network. The terms multicast and  
narrowcast are often used interchangeably, although narrowcast usually refers to the business model whereas  
multicast refers to the actual technology used to transmit the data.  
Multicast OSPF  
With a MOSPF specification, an IP Multicast packet is routed based both on the packet's source and its  
multicast destination (commonly referred to as source/destination routing). As it is routed, the multicast  
packet follows a shortest path to each multicast destination. During packet forwarding, any commonality of  
paths is exploited; when multiple hosts belong to a single multicast group, a multicast packet will be  
replicated only when the paths to the separate hosts diverge. See “OSPF” on page 15 for more information.  
Multiplexing  
A function within a layer that interleaves the information from multiple connections into one connection.  
Multi-Protocol Label Switching  
An initiative that integrates Layer 2 information about network links (bandwidth, latency, utilization) into  
Layer 3 (IP) within a particular autonomous system—or ISP—in order to simplify and improve IP-packet  
exchange. MPLS gives network operators a great deal of flexibility to divert and route traffic around link  
failures, congestion, and bottlenecks. From a QoS standpoint, ISPs will better be able to manage different  
kinds of data streams based on priority and service plan. For instance, those who subscribe to a premium  
service plan, or those who receive a lot of streaming media or high-bandwidth content can see minimal  
latency and packet loss. When packets enter into a MPLS-based network, Label Edge Routers (LERs) give  
them a label (identifier). These labels not only contain information based on the routing table entry (i.e.,  
destination, bandwidth, delay, and other metrics), but also refer to the IP header field (source IP address),  
Layer 4 socket number information, and differentiated service. Once this classification is complete and  
mapped, different packets are assigned to corresponding Labeled Switch Paths (LSPs), where Label Switch

if necessary. Port mirroring can be managed locally or remotely. An administrator configures port mirroring  
by assigning a port from which to copy all packets and another port where those packets will be sent. A  
packet bound for or heading away from the first port will be forwarded onto the second port as well. The  
administrator places a protocol analyzer on the port receiving the mirrored data to monitor each segment  
separately. The analyzer captures and evaluates the data without affecting the client on the original port. The  
monitor port may be a port on the same SwitchModule with an attached RMON probe, a port on a different

Simple Network Management Protocol  
SNMP is the protocol governing network management and the monitoring of network devices and their  
functions. It is not necessarily limited to TCP/IP networks. The versions have the following differences:  
SNMPv1 (full): Security is based on community strings.  
SNMPsec (historic): Security is based on parties. Few, if any, vendors implemented this version of the  
protocol, which is now largely forgotten.  
SNMPv2p (historic): For this version, much work was done to update the SNMPv1 protocol and the SMIv1,  
and not just security. The result was updated protocol operations, new protocol operations and data types,  
and party-based security from SNMPsec.  
SNMPv2c (experimental): This version of the protocol is called community string-based SNMPv2. It is an  
update of the protocol operations and data types of SNMPv2p, and uses community-based security from  
SNMPv1.  
SNMPv2u (experimental): This version of the protocol uses the protocol operations and data types of  
SNMPv2c and security based on users.  
SNMPv2* (experimental): This version combined the best features of SNMPv2p and SNMPv2u. (It is also  
called SNMPv2star.) The documents defining this version were never published as RFCs.  
SNMPv3 (proposed): This version of the protocol is a combination of user-based security and the protocol  
operations and data types from SNMPv2p and support for proxies. The security is based on that found in  
SNMPv2u and SNMPv2*, and updated after much review. The documents defining this protocol will soon  
be published as RFCs.  
SimpleX signaling  
SX is one of IEEE 802.3's designations for media. For example, 1000SX indicates 1000 gigabit Ethernet  
over "short haul" or "short wavelength" optical fiber.  
SMII  
Serial Media Independent Interface.

SNMP  
Spanning Tree  
A technique that detects loops in a network and logically blocks the redundant paths, ensuring that only one  
route exists between any two LANs.  
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)  
A protocol that finds the most efficient path between segments of a multi-looped, bridged network. STP  
allows redundant switches and bridges to be used for network resilience, without the broadcast storms  
associated with looping. If a switch or bridge falls, a new path to a redundant switch or bridge is opened.  
SRAM  
Static Random Access Memory.  
STP  
Spanning Tree Protocol. See “802.1D” on page 1 for more information.  
stub area  
OSPF area that carries a default route, intra-area routes, and interarea routes, but does not carry external  
routes. Virtual links cannot be configured across a stub area, and they cannot contain an ASBR. Compare  
with non-stub area. See also OSPF. (Cisco Systems Inc.)  
Subnet Mask  
Combined with the IP address, the IP Subnet Mask allows a device to know which other addresses are local  
to it, and which must be reached through a gateway or router.  
Switch  
A device that interconnects several LANs to form a single logical LAN that comprises of several LAN  
segments. Switches are similar to bridges, in that they connect LANs of a different type; however they  
connect more LANs than a bridge and are generally more sophisticated.  
SX  
T
Telnet  
A character-based UNIX application that enables users with a Telnet server account to log on to a UNIX  
computer and utilize its resources.

TFTP  
TLS  
Short for Transport Layer Security, TLS is a protocol that guarantees privacy and data integrity between  
client/server applications communicating over the Internet.  
The TLS protocol is made up of two layers. The TLS Record Protocol ensures that a connection is private by  
using symmetric data encryption and ensures that the connection is reliable. The second TLS layer is the  
TLS Handshake Protocol, which allows authentication between the server and client and the negotiation of  
an encryption algorithm and cryptographic keys before data is transmitted or received. Based on Netscape’s  
SSL 3.0, TLS supercedes and is an extension of SSL. TLS and SSL are not interoperable.  
Telnet  
A TCP/IP application protocol that provides a virtual terminal service, allowing a user to log into another  
computer system and access a device as if the user were connected directly to the device.  
Traffic prioritization  
Giving time-critical data traffic a higher quality of service over other, non-critical data traffic.  
Trivial File Transfer Protocol  
TFTP is a simple form of the File Transfer Protocol (FTP). TFTP uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP, a  
direct protocol used to communicate datagrams over a network with little error recovery) and provides no  
security features. It is often used by servers to boot diskless workstations, X-terminals, and routers.  
Trunking  
The process of combing a set of trunks that are traffic-engineered as a unit for the establishment of  
connections between switching systems in which all of the communications paths are interchangeable.  
U
UTP  
Unshielded twisted pair is the cable used by 10BASE-T and 100BASE-Tx Ethernet networks.  
V
Virtual Local Area Network  
Operating at the Data Link Layer (Layer 2 of the OSI model), the VLAN is a means of parsing a single  
network into logical user groups or organizations, as if they physically resided on a dedicated LAN segment  
of their own. In reality, this virtually defined community may have individual members peppered across a  
large, extended LAN. The VLAN identifier is part of the 802.1Q tag, which is added to an Ethernet frame by

an 802.1Q-compliant switch or router. Devices recognizing 802.1Q-tagged frames maintain appropriate  
tables to track VLANs. The first three bits of the 802.1Q tag are used by 802.1P to establish priority for the  
packet.  
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol  
VRRP specifies an election protocol that dynamically assigns responsibility for a virtual router to one of the  
VRRP routers on a LAN. The VRRP router controlling the IP address(es) associated with a virtual router is  
called the Master, and forwards packets sent to these IP addresses. The election process provides dynamic  
fail-over in the forwarding responsibility should the Master become unavailable. This allows any of the  
virtual router IP addresses on the LAN to be used as the default first hop router by end-hosts. The advantage  
gained from using VRRP is a higher availability default path without requiring configuration of dynamic  
routing or router discovery protocols on every end-host.  
VLAN  
VRRP  
W
WAN  
Web  
Also known as World-Wide Web (WWW) or W3. An Internet client-server system to distribute information,  
based upon the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP).  
Wide Area Network  
A WAN is a computer network that spans a relatively large geographical area. Typically, a WAN consists of  
two or more local-area networks (LANs).  
Windows Internet Naming Service  
WINS. Windows Internet Naming Service is a server process for resolving Windows-based computer names  
to IP addresses.  
If a remote network contains a WINS server, your Windows PCs can gather information from that WINS  
server about its local hosts. This allows your PCs to browse that remote network using the Windows  
Network Neighborhood feature.

X
XModem  
One of the most popular file transfer protocols (FTPs). Xmodem is fairly effective at detecting errors. It  
sends blocks of data together with a checksum and then waits for acknowledgment of the block's receipt.  
The waiting slows down the rate of data transmission considerably, but it ensures accurate transmission.  
Xmodem can be implemented either in software or in hardware. Many modems, and almost all  
communications software packages, support Xmodem. However, it is useful only at relatively slow data  
transmission speeds (less than 4,800 bps). Enhanced versions of Xmodem that work at higher transmission  
speeds are known as Ymodem and Zmodem.
