Command line interface  
Introduction  
Your HP ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switch is ready to perform basic switching functions right out of the  
box. Some of the more advanced features, however, require some administrative configuration before they can be  
used effectively.  
The extensive switching software included in your GbE2 Interconnect Switch provides a variety of options for  
accessing and configuring the GbE2 Interconnect Switch:  
A built-in, text-based command line interface (CLI) and menu system for access via a local terminal or remote  
Telnet/Secure Shell (SSH) session  
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) support for access through network management software such  
as HP OpenView and HP Insight Manager 7  
A browser-based management interface for interactive network access through your Web browser  
The command line interface is the most direct method for collecting GbE2 Interconnect Switch information and  
performing switch configuration. Using a basic terminal, you are presented with a hierarchy of menus that enable you  
to view information and statistics about the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, and to perform any necessary configuration.  
This chapter explains how to access the CLI to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch.  
Additional references  
Additional information about installing and configuring the GbE2 Interconnect Switch is available in the following  
guides, which are available at http://www.hp.com/support.

Connecting to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch  
You can access the command line interface in one of the following ways:  
Using a console connection via the console port  
Using a Telnet connection over the network  
Using a Secure Shell (SSH) connection to securely log in over a network  
Establishing a console connection  
To establish a console connection with the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, you need:  
A null modem cable with a female DB-9 connector (See the HP ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switch  
User Guide for more information.)  
An ASCII terminal or a computer running terminal emulation software set to the parameters shown in the table  
below

To establish a console connection with the GbE2 Interconnect Switch:  
1.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
Connect the terminal to the console port using the null modem cable.  
Power on the terminal.  
Press the Enter key a few times on your terminal to establish the connection.  
You will be required to enter a password for access to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. (For more information, see  
the “Setting passwords” section in the “First-time configuration” chapter.)  
Setting an IP address  
To access the GbE2 Interconnect Switch via a Telnet or an SSH connection, you need to have an Internet Protocol (IP)  
address set for the switch. The GbE2 Interconnect Switch can get its IP address in one of two ways:  
Using a Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) server—By default, the management interface is set up to request its IP  
address from a BOOTP server. If you have a BOOTP server on your network, add the Media Access Control  
(MAC) address of the GbE2 Interconnect Switch to the BOOTP configuration file located on the BOOTP server.  
The MAC address can be found on a small white label on the back panel of the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. The  
MAC address can also be found in the System Information menu (See the “System information” section in the  
“Information Menu” chapter.) If you are using a DHCP server that also does BOOTP, you do not have to  
configure the MAC address.  
Configuring manually—If your network does not support BOOTP, you must configure the management port with  
an IP address.  
Establishing a Telnet connection  
A Telnet connection offers the convenience of accessing the GbE2 Interconnect Switch from any workstation  
connected to the network. Telnet provides the same options for user, operator, and administrator access as those  
available through the console port. By default, Telnet is enabled on the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. The GbE2  
Interconnect Switch supports four concurrent Telnet connections.  
Once the IP parameters are configured, you can access the CLI using a Telnet connection. To establish a Telnet  
connection with the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, run the Telnet program on your workstation and enter the telnet  
command, followed by the GbE2 Interconnect Switch IP address:  
telnet <GbE2 Interconnect Switch IP address>  
You will then be prompted to enter a password. The password entered determines the access level: administrator,  
operator, or user. See the “Accessing the GbE2 Interconnect Switch” section later in this chapter for description of  
default passwords.  
Establishing an SSH connection  
Although a remote network administrator can manage the configuration of a GbE2 Interconnect Switch via Telnet, this  
method does not provide a secure connection. The Secure Shell (SSH) protocol enables you to securely log into the  
GbE2 Interconnect Switch over the network.  
As a secure alternative to using Telnet to manage GbE2 Interconnect Switch configuration, SSH ensures that all data  
sent over the network is encrypted and secure. In order to use SSH, you must first configure it on the GbE2  
Interconnect Switch. See the “Secure Shell Server configuration” section in the “Configuration Menu” chapter for  
information on how to configure SSH.  
The GbE2 Interconnect Switch can perform only one session of key/cipher generation at a time. Therefore, an  
SSH/Secure Copy (SCP) client will not be able to log in if the GbE2 Interconnect Switch is performing key generation  
at that time or if another client has just logged in before this client. Similarly, the system will fail to perform the key  
generation if an SSH/SCP client is logging in at that time.  
The supported SSH encryption and authentication methods are listed below.  
Server Host Authentication—Client RSA authenticates the GbE2 Interconnect Switch in the beginning of every  
connection

ARCFOUR  
User Authentication—Local password authentication; Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS)  
The following SSH clients are supported:  
SSH 3.0.1 for Linux (freeware)  
SecureCRT® 4.1.8 (VanDyke Technologies, Inc.)  
OpenSSH_3.9 for Linux (FC 3)  
FedoraCore 3 for SCP commands  
PuTTY Release 0.58 (Simon Tatham) for Windows  
NOTE: The GbE2 Interconnect Switch implementation of SSH is based on versions 1.5 and 2.0, and supports  
SSH clients from version 1.0 through version 2.0. SSH clients of other versions are not supported. You may  
configure the client software to use protocol SSH version 1 or version 2.  
By default, SSH service is not enabled on the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. Once the IP parameters are configured, you  
can access the command line interface to enable SSH.  
To establish an SSH connection with the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, run the SSH program on your workstation by  
issuing the ssh command, followed by the user account name and the GbE2 Interconnect Switch IP address:  
>> # ssh <user><GbE2 Interconnect Switch IP address>  
You will then be prompted to enter your password.  
NOTE: The first time you run SSH from your workstation, a warning message might appear. At the prompt,  
enter yes to continue.  
Accessing the GbE2 Interconnect Switch  
To enable better switch management and user accountability, the GbE2 Interconnect Switch provides different levels  
or classes of user access. Levels of access to the CLI and Web management functions and screens increase as needed  
to perform various GbE2 Interconnect Switch management tasks. The three levels of access are:  
User—User interaction with the GbE2 Interconnect Switch is completely passive; nothing can be changed on the  
GbE2 Interconnect Switch. Users may display information that has no security or privacy implications, such as  
GbE2 Interconnect Switch statistics and current operational state information.  
Operator—Operators can only effect temporary changes on the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. These changes will  
be lost when the GbE2 Interconnect Switch is rebooted/reset. Operators have access to the GbE2 Interconnect  
Switch management features used for daily GbE2 Interconnect Switch operations. Because any changes an  
operator makes are undone by a reset of the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, operators cannot severely impact  
switch operation, but do have access to the Maintenance menu.  
Administrator—Only administrators can make permanent changes to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch  
configuration, changes that are persistent across a reboot/reset of the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. Administrators  
can access GbE2 Interconnect Switch functions to configure and troubleshoot problems on the switch. Because  
administrators can also make temporary (operator-level) changes as well, they must be aware of the interactions  
between temporary and permanent changes.  
Access to GbE2 Interconnect Switch functions is controlled through the use of unique usernames and passwords.  
Once you are connected to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch via the local console, Telnet, or SSH, you are prompted to  
enter a password. The password entered determines the access level. The default user names/password for each  
access level is listed in the following table.  
NOTE: It is recommended that you change default GbE2 Interconnect Switch passwords after initial  
configuration and as regularly as required under your network security policies. For more information, see the  
“Setting passwords” section in the “First-time configuration” chapter.

Table 2 User access levels  
User account  
Description and tasks performed  
User  
The user has no direct responsibility for GbE2 Interconnect Switch management. He or she can view  
all GbE2 Interconnect Switch status information and statistics, but cannot make any configuration  
changes to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. The user account is enabled by default.  
Operator  
The operator manages all functions of the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. The operator can reset ports or  
the entire GbE2 Interconnect Switch. By default, the operator account is disabled and has no  
password.  
Administrator  
The super user administrator has complete access to all menus, information, and configuration  
commands on the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, including the ability to change both the user and  
administrator passwords.  
NOTE: With the exception of the admin user, setting the password to an empty value can disable access to  
each user level. By default, user and admin are enabled.  
Once you enter the administrator password and it is verified, you are given complete access to the GbE2 Interconnect  
Switch.  
After logging in, the Main Menu of the CLI is displayed. See the “Menu basics” chapter for a summary of the Main  
Menu options.

Menu basics  
Introduction  
The HP ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switch CLI is used for viewing switch information and statistics. In  
addition, the administrator can use the CLI for performing all levels of GbE2 Interconnect Switch configuration.  
To make the CLI easy to use, the various commands have been logically grouped into a series of menus and  
submenus. Each menu displays a list of commands and/or submenus that are available, along with a summary of  
what each command will do. Below each menu is a prompt where you can enter any command appropriate to the  
current menu.  
This chapter describes the Main Menu commands, and provides a list of commands and shortcuts that are commonly  
available from all the menus within the CLI.  
Main Menu  
The Main Menu displays after a successful connection and login. The following table shows the Main Menu for the  
administrator login. Some features are not available under the user login.

Command line interface shortcuts  
The following shortcuts allow you to enter commands quickly and easily.  
Command stacking  
As a shortcut, you can type multiple commands on a single line, separated by forward slashes (/). You can connect  
as many commands as required to access the menu option that you want.  
For example, the keyboard shortcut to access the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Configuration Menu  
from the Main# prompt is:  
Main# cfg/sys/ssnmp/name  
Command abbreviation  
Most commands can be abbreviated by entering the first characters that distinguish the command from the others in  
the same menu or submenu.  
For example, the command shown above could also be entered as:  
Main# c/sn/n  
Tab completion  
By entering the first letter of a command at any menu prompt and pressing the Tab key, the CLI will display all  
commands or options in that menu that begin with that letter. Entering additional letters will further refine the list of  
commands or options displayed.  
If only one command fits the input text when the Tab key is pressed, that command will be supplied on the command  
line, waiting to be entered. If the Tab key is pressed without any input on the command line, the currently active menu  
displays.

Changing the default operator password  
The operator manages all functions of the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. The operator can reset ports or the entire GbE2  
Interconnect Switch. Operators can only effect temporary changes on the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. These changes  
will be lost when the GbE2 Interconnect Switch is rebooted/reset. Operators have access to the GbE2 Interconnect  
Switch management features used for daily GbE2 Interconnect Switch operations. Because any changes an operator  
makes are undone by a reset of the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, operators cannot severely impact GbE2 Interconnect  
Switch operation.  
By default, the operator account is disabled and has no password. This password cannot be changed from the  
operator account. Only the administrator has the ability to change passwords, as shown in the following procedure.

The User-based Security Model (USM) in SNMPv3 provides security services such as authentication and privacy of  
messages. This security model makes use of a defined set of user identities displayed in the USM user table. The USM  
user table contains information like:  
the user name  
a security name in the form of a string whose format is independent of the Security Model  
an authentication protocol, which is an indication that the messages sent on behalf of the user can be  
authenticated  
the privacy protocol.  
The following table describes the SNMPv3 User Table information.  
Table 9 User Table parameters  
Field  
Description  
User Name  
Protocol  
This is a string that represents the name of the user that you can use to access the switch.  
This indicates whether messages sent on behalf of this user are protected from disclosure using a  
privacy protocol. GbE2 software supports DES algorithm for privacy. The software also supports  
two authentication algorithms: MD5 and HMAC-SHA.

The access control sub system provides authorization services.  
The vacmAccessTable maps a group name, security information, a context, and a message type, which could be the  
read or write type of operation or notification into a MIB view.  
The View-based Access Control Model defines a set of services that an application can use for checking access rights  
of a group. This group’s access rights are determined by a read-view, a write-view, and a notify-view. The read-view  
represents the set of object instances authorized for the group while reading the objects. The write-view represents the  
set of object instances authorized for the group when writing objects. The notify-view represents the set of object  
instances authorized for the group when sending a notification.

The following table describes the STP parameters.  
Table 25 STP parameters  
Parameter  
Description  
Current Root  
Shows information about the root bridge for the Spanning Tree. Information includes the  
priority (hex) and MAC address of the root.  
Path-Cost  
Port  
Path-cost is the total path cost to the root bridge. It is the summation of the path cost  
between bridges (up to the root bridge).  
The current root port refers to the port on the GbE2 Interconnect Switch that receives data  
from the current root. Zero (0) indicates the root bridge of the STP.  
Priority (bridge)  
Hello  
The bridge priority parameter controls which bridge on the network will become the STP  
root bridge.  
The hello time parameter specifies, in seconds, how often the root bridge transmits a  
configuration bridge protocol data unit (BPDU). Any bridge that is not the root bridge  
uses the root bridge hello value.  
MaxAge  
The maximum age parameter specifies, in seconds, the maximum time the bridge waits  
without receiving a configuration bridge protocol data unit before it reconfigures the STP  
network.  
FwdDel  
Aging  
The forward delay parameter specifies, in seconds, the amount of time that a bridge port  
has to wait before it changes from learning state to forwarding state.  
The aging time parameter specifies, in seconds, the amount of time the bridge waits  
without receiving a packet from a station before removing the station from the Forwarding  
Database.  
Priority (port)  
The port priority parameter helps determine which bridge port becomes the designated  
port. In a network topology that has multiple bridge ports connected to a single segment,  
the port with the lowest port priority becomes the designated port for the segment.  
Cost  
The port path cost parameter is used to help determine the designated port for a segment.  
Generally speaking, the faster the port, the lower the path cost.  
State  
The State field shows the current state of the port. The State field can be one of the  
following: BLOCKING, LISTENING, LEARNING, FORWARDING, or DISABLED.  
Designated bridge  
Designated port  
Shows information about the bridge connected to each port, if applicable. Information  
includes the priority (hex) and MAC address of the Designated Bridge.  
The port ID of the port on the Designated Bridge to which this port is connected.

VRRP information  
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) support on GbE2 Interconnect Switch provides redundancy between  
routers in a LAN. This is accomplished by configuring the same virtual router IP address and ID number on each  
participating VRRP-capable routing device. One of the virtual routers is then elected as the master, based on a  
number of priority criteria, and assumes control of the shared virtual router IP address. If the master fails, one of the  
backup virtual routers will assume routing authority and take control of the virtual router IP address.  
Command: /info/l3/vrrp  
VRRP information:  
1: vrid 2, 205.178.18.210, if 1, renter, prio 100, master, server  
2: vrid 1, 205.178.18.202, if 1, renter, prio 100, backup  
3: vrid 3, 205.178.18.204, if 1, renter, prio 100, master, proxy  
When virtual routers are configured, you can view the status of each virtual router using this command. VRRP  
information includes:  
Virtual router number  
Virtual router ID and IP address  
Interface number  
Ownership status  
owner identifies the preferred master virtual router. A virtual router is the owner when the IP address of the  
virtual router and its IP interface are the same.  
renter identifies virtual routers which are not owned by this device  
Priority value. During the election process, the virtual router with the highest priority becomes master.  
Information Menu 53  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
     
Activity status  
master identifies the elected master virtual router.  
backup identifies that the virtual router is in backup mode.  
init identifies that the virtual router is waiting for a startup event. Once it receives a startup event, it  
transitions to master if its priority is 255, (the IP address owner), or transitions to backup if it is not the IP  
address owner.  
Server status. The server state identifies virtual routers.  
Proxy status. The proxy state identifies virtual proxy routers, where the virtual router shares the same IP address  
as a proxy IP address. The use of virtual proxy routers enables redundant switches to share the same IP address,  
minimizing the number of unique IP addresses that must be configured.

Table 47 Bridging statistics for port  
Statistics  
Description  
dot1PortInFrames  
The number of frames that have been received by this port from its segment.  
A frame received on the interface corresponding to this port is counted by this  
object, if and only if, it is for a protocol being processed by the local bridging  
function, including bridge management frames.  
dot1PortOutFrames  
The number of frames that have been transmitted by this port to its segment.  
A frame transmitted on the interface corresponding to this port is counted by  
this object, if and only if, it is for a protocol being processed by the local  
bridging function, including bridge management frames.  
dot1PortInDiscards  
Count of valid frames received which were discarded (that is, filtered) by the  
forwarding process.  
dot1TpLearnedEntryDiscards  
The total number of Forwarding Database entries, which have been or would  
have been learned, but have been discarded due to a lack of space to store  
them in the Forwarding Database.  
If this counter is increasing, it indicates that the Forwarding Database is  
regularly becoming full (a condition which has adverse performance effects  
on the sub network).  
If this counter has a significant value but is not presently increasing, it  
indicates that the problem has been occurring but is not persistent.  
dot1StpPortForwardTransitions The number of times this port has transitioned from the Learning state to the  
Forwarding state.

Table 48 Ethernet statistics for port  
Statistics  
Description  
dot3StatsFCSErrors  
A count of frames received on a particular interface that are an integral  
number of octets in length but do not pass the Frame Check Sequence  
(FCS) check.  
The count represented by an instance of this object is incremented when  
the frameCheckErrorstatus is returned by the MAC service to the  
LLC (or other MAC user).  
Received frames for which multiple error conditions obtained are,  
according to the conventions of IEEE 802.3 Layer Management,  
counted exclusively according to the error status presented to the LLC.  
dot3StatsSingleCollisionFrames  
dot3StatsMultipleCollisionFrames  
dot3StatsLateCollisions  
A count of successfully transmitted frames on a particular interface for  
which transmission is inhibited by exactly one collision.  
A frame that is counted by an instance of this object is also counted by  
the corresponding instance of the ifOutUcastPkts, ifOutMulticastPkts, or  
ifOutBroadcastPkts, and is not counted by the corresponding instance of  
the dot3StatsMultipleCollisionFrame object.  
A count of successfully transmitted frames on a particular interface for  
which transmission is inhibited by more than one collision.  
A frame that is counted by an instance of this object is also counted by  
the corresponding instance of the ifOutUcastPkts, ifOutMulticastPkts, or  
ifOutBroadcastPkts, and is not counted by the corresponding instance of  
the dot3StatsSingleCollisionFrames object.  
The number of times that a collision is detected on a particular interface  
later than 512 bit-times into the transmission of a packet.  
Five hundred and twelve bit-times corresponds to 51.2 microseconds on  
a 10 Mbit/s system. A (late) collision included in a count represented  
by an instance of this object is also considered as a (generic) collision  
for purposes of other  
collision-related statistics.  
dot3StatsExcessiveCollisions  
A count of frames for which transmission on a particular interface fails  
due to excessive collisions.  
dot3StatsInternalMacTransmitErrors A count of frames for which transmission on a particular interface fails  
due to an internal MAC sublayer transmit error.  
A frame is only counted by an instance of this object if it is not counted  
by the corresponding instance of the dot3StatsLateCollisions object, the  
dot3StatsExcessiveCollisions object, or the dot3StatsCarrierSenseErrors  
object.  
The precise meaning of the count represented by an instance of this  
object is implementation specific. In particular, an instance of this object  
may represent a count of transmission errors on a particular interface  
that are not otherwise counted.  
dot3StatsFrameTooLongs  
A count of frames received on a particular interface that exceeds the  
maximum permitted frame size.  
The count represented by an instance of this object is incremented when  
the frameTooLong status is returned by the MAC service to the LLC (or  
other MAC user).  
Received frames for which multiple error conditions obtained are,  
according to the conventions of IEEE 802.3 Layer Management,  
counted exclusively according to the error status presented to the LLC.  
dot3StatsInternalMacReceiveErrors  
A count of frames for which reception on a particular interface fails due  
to an internal MAC sublayer receive error.  
A frame is only counted by an instance of this object if it is not counted  
by the corresponding instance of the dot3StatsFrameTooLongs object,  
the dot3StatsAlignmentErrors object, or the dot3StatsFCSErrors object.  
The precise meaning of the count represented by an instance of this  
object is implementation specific. In particular, an instance of this object  
may represent a count of received errors on a particular interface that  
are not otherwise counted.

Table 49 Interface statistics for port  
Statistics  
Description  
Octets—IfHCIn  
UcastPkts—IfHCIn  
The total number of octets received on the interface, including framing characters.  
The number of packets, delivered by this sublayer to a higher sublayer, which  
were not addressed to a multicast or broadcast address at this sublayer.  
BroadcastPkts—IfHCIn  
MulticastPkts—IfHCIn  
The number of packets, delivered by this sublayer to a higher sublayer, which  
were addressed to a broadcast address at this sublayer.  
The total number of packets, delivered by this sublayer. These are the packets that  
higher-level protocols requested to be transmitted, and which were addressed to a  
multicast address at this sublayer, including those that were discarded or not sent.  
For a MAC layer protocol, this includes both group and functional addresses.  
Discards—IfHCIn  
Errors—IfHCIn  
The number of inbound packets which were chosen to be discarded even though  
no errors were detected to prevent their being delivered to a higher-layer  
protocol. One possible reason for discarding such a packet could be to free up  
buffer space.  
For packet-oriented interfaces, the number of inbound packets that contained  
errors preventing them from being delivered to a higher-layer protocol.  
For character-oriented or fixed-length interfaces, the number of inbound  
transmission units that contained errors preventing them from being deliverable to  
a higher-layer protocol.  
Octets—IfHCOut  
The total number of octets transmitted out of the interface, including framing

Discards—IfHCOut  
Errors—IfHCOut  
The number of outbound packets that were chosen to be discarded even though  
no errors had been detected to prevent their being transmitted. One possible  
reason for discarding such a packet could be to free up buffer space.

Description  
ipInReceives  
The total number of input datagrams received from interfaces, including those received in  
error.  
ipInHdrErrors  
ipInAddrErrors  
The number of input datagrams discarded due to errors in their IP headers, including bad  
checksums, version number mismatch, other format errors, time-to-live exceeded, errors  
discovered in processing their IP options, and so on.  
The number of input datagrams discarded because the IP address in their IP header destination  
field was not a valid address to be received at this GbE2 Interconnect Switch. This count  
includes invalid addresses (for example, 0.0.0.0) and addresses of unsupported classes (for  
example, Class E).  
For entities which are not IP gateways and therefore do not forward datagrams, this counter  
includes datagrams discarded because the destination address was not a local address.  
ipInUnknownProtos  
ipInDiscards  
The number of locally addressed datagrams received successfully but discarded because of an  
unknown or unsupported protocol.  
The number of input IP datagrams for which no problems were encountered to prevent their  
continued processing, but which were discarded (for example, for lack of buffer space).  
This counter does not include any datagrams discarded while awaiting re-assembly.  
ipInDelivers  
ipOutRequests  
The total number of input datagrams successfully delivered to IP user-protocols (including  
ICMP).  
The total number of IP datagrams that local IP user-protocols (including ICMP) supplied to IP in  
requests for transmission.  
This counter does not include any datagrams counted in ipForwDatagrams.  
ipOutDiscards  
ipDefaultTTL  
The number of output IP datagrams for which no problem was encountered to prevent their  
transmission to their destination, but which were discarded (for example, for lack of buffer  
space).  
This counter would include datagrams counted in ipForwDatagrams if any such packets met  
this (discretionary) discard criterion.  
The default value inserted into the Time-To-Live (TTL) field of the IP header of datagrams  
originated at this GbE2 Interconnect Switch, whenever a TTL value is not supplied by the  
transport layer protocol.

VRRP statistics  
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) support on the GbE2 Interconnect Switch provides redundancy between  
routers in a LAN. This is accomplished by configuring the same virtual router IP address and ID number on each  
participating VRRP-capable routing device.  
One of the virtual routers is then elected as the master, based on a number of priority criteria, and assumes control of  
the shared virtual router IP address. If the master fails, one of the backup virtual routers will assume routing authority  
and take control of the virtual router IP address.  
When virtual routers are configured, you can display the following protocol statistics for VRRP:  
Advertisements received (vrrpInAdvers)  
Advertisements transmitted (vrrpOutAdvers)

The following table describes the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) statistics:  
Table 74 SNMP statistics  
Statistics  
Description  
snmpInPkts  
The total number of messages delivered to the SNMP entity from the transport  
service.  
snmpInBadVersions  
snmpInBadC'tyNames  
snmpInBadC'tyUses  
The total number of SNMP messages, which were delivered to the SNMP protocol  
entity and were for an unsupported SNMP version.  
The total number of SNMP messages delivered to the SNMP entity that used an  
SNMP community name not known to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch.  
The total number of SNMP messages delivered to the SNMP protocol entity that  
represented an SNMP operation which was not allowed by the SNMP community

snmpInASNParseErrs  
The total number of ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) or BER (Basic Encoding  
Rules), errors encountered by the SNMP protocol entity when decoding SNMP  
messages received.  
The Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) method of specifying abstract objects is  
called ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One, defined in X.208), and one set of  
rules for representing such objects as strings of ones and zeros is called the BER  
(Basic Encoding Rules, defined in X.209).  
ASN.1 is a flexible notation that allows one to define a variety of data types, from  
simple types such as integers and bit strings to structured types such as sets and  
sequences.  
BER describes how to represent or encode values of each ASN.1 type as a string of  
eight-bit octets.  
snmpEnableAuthTraps

only.  
It should be noted that it is a protocol error to generate an SNMP PDU, which  
contains the value read-only in the error-status field. As such, this object is provided  
as a means of detecting incorrect implementations of the SNMP.  
snmpInGenErrs  
The total number of SNMP Protocol Data Units (PDUs), which were delivered to the  
SNMP protocol entity and for which the value of the error-status field is genErr.

Viewing, applying, reverting, and saving changes  
As you use the configuration menus to set GbE2 Interconnect Switch parameters, the changes you make do not take  
effect immediately. All changes are considered pending until you explicitly apply them. Also, any changes are lost the  
next time the GbE2 Interconnect Switch boots unless the changes are explicitly saved.  
While configuration changes are in the pending state, you can:  
View the pending changes  
Apply the pending changes  
Revert to restore configuration parameters set with the last apply command  
Save the changes to flash memory  
Viewing pending changes  
You can view all pending configuration changes by entering diffat any CLI prompt:  
# diff  
You can view all pending configuration changes that have been applied but not saved to flash memory by entering  
diff flashat any CLI prompt:  
# diff flash  
Applying pending changes  
To make your configuration changes active, you must apply them. To apply configuration changes, enter the  
following command at any prompt:  
# apply  
NOTE: All configuration changes take effect immediately when applied.  
Reverting changes  
The revert command removes configuration changes that have been made, but not applied. Enter revert apply to  
remove all changes that have not been saved:  
# revert  
Saving the configuration  
In addition to applying the configuration changes, you can save them to flash memory on the GbE2 Interconnect  
Switch.  
IMPORTANT: If you do not save the changes, they will be lost the next time the system is rebooted.  
To save the new configuration, enter the following command at any prompt:  
# save  
When you save configuration changes, the changes are saved to the active configuration block. The configuration  
being replaced by the save is first copied to the backup configuration block. If you do not want the previous  
configuration block copied to the backup configuration block, enter the following instead:  
# save n

You can decide which configuration you want to run the next time you reset the GbE2 Interconnect Switch. Your  
options include:  
The active configuration block  
The backup configuration block  
Factory default configuration block  
You can view all pending configuration changes that have been applied but not saved to flash memory using the diff  
flash command. It is a global command that can be executed from any prompt.  
For instructions on selecting the configuration to run at the next system reset, see the “Selecting a configuration block”  
section in the “Boot Options Menu” chapter.

TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access Control System) is an authentication protocol that allows a remote  
access server to forward a user's logon password to an authentication server to determine whether access can be  
allowed to a given system. TACACS+ and Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) protocols are more  
secure than the TACACS encryption protocol. TACACS+ is described in RFC 1492.  
TACACS+ protocol is more reliable than RADIUS, as TACACS+ uses the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) whereas  
RADIUS uses the User Datagram Protocol (UDP). Also, RADIUS combines authentication and authorization in a user  
profile, whereas TACACS+ separates the two operations.  
TACACS+ offers the following advantages over RADIUS as the authentication device:  
TACACS+ is TCP-based, so it facilitates connection-oriented traffic.  
It supports full-packet encryption, as opposed to password-only in authentication requests.  
It supports decoupled authentication, authorization, and accounting.  
The following table describes the TACACS+ Server Configuration Menu options.

GbE2 software supports SNMP-based network management. In SNMP model of network management, a  
management station (client/manager) accesses a set of variables known as MIBs (Management Information Base)  
provided by the managed device (agent). If you are running an SNMP network management station on your network,  
you can manage the switch using the following standard SNMP MIBs:  
MIB II (RFC 1213)  
Ethernet MIB (RFC 1643)  
Bridge MIB (RFC 1493)  
An SNMP agent is a software process on the managed device that listens on UDP port 161 for SNMP messages.  
Each SNMP message sent to the agent contains a list of management objects to retrieve or to modify.  
SNMP parameters that can be modified include:  
System name

HP ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switch supports the IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and  
IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP). MSTP allows you to map many VLANs to a small number of  
spanning tree groups, each with its own topology.  
You can configure up to 32 spanning tree groups on the switch. MRST is turned off by default.  
NOTE: When Multiple Spanning Tree is turned on, VLAN 1 is moved from Spanning Tree Group 1 to the  
Common Internal Spanning Tree (CIST). When Multiple Spanning Tree is turned off, VLAN 1 is moved back to  
Spanning Tree Group 1.

instance) only. As a result, if ‘rstp’ mode is selected under the /cfg/mrst/modecommand, then only a  
single RSTP instance (default for STG 1) is supported for all VLANs, including the Default VLAN 1.  
If multiple spanning tree instances are required, then select ‘mstp’ mode so that multiple VLANs are  
handled by multiple spanning tree instances, as specified by IEEE 802.1s standard-based MSTP  
implementation.

Table 116 CIST Bridge Configuration Menu options  
Command  
Description  
prior <0-65535>  
Configures the CIST bridge priority. The bridge priority parameter controls which bridge on the  
network is the MSTP root bridge.  
To make this switch the root bridge, configure the bridge priority lower than all other switches  
and bridges on your network. The lower the value, the higher the bridge priority. The range is 0  
to 65535, and the default is 32768.  
This command does not apply to RSTP. See the "Bridge Spanning Tree configuration" section for  
more information.  
mxage <6-40>  
fwd <4-30>  
Configures the CIST bridge maximum age. The maximum age parameter specifies the maximum  
time the bridge waits without receiving a configuration bridge protocol data unit before it  
reconfigures the MSTP network. The range is 6 to 40 seconds, and the default is 20 seconds.  
This command does not apply to RSTP. See the "Bridge Spanning Tree configuration" section for  
more information.  
Configures the CIST bridge forward delay parameter. The forward delay parameter specifies the  
amount of time that a bridge port has to wait before it changes from the listening state to the  
learning state and from the learning state to the forwarding state. The range is 4 to 30 seconds,  
and the default is 15 seconds.  
This command does not apply to RSTP. See the "Bridge Spanning Tree configuration" section for

Table 117 CIST Port Configuration Menu options  
Command  
Description  
prior <0-240>  
Configures the CIST port priority. The port priority helps determine which bridge port  
becomes the designated port. In a network topology that has multiple bridge ports  
connected to a single segment, the port with the lowest port priority becomes the  
designated port for the segment. The range is 0 to 240, in steps of 16 (0, 16, 32...),  
and the default is 128.  
cost <1-200000000>  
hello <1-10>  
Configures the CIST port path cost. The port path cost is used to help determine the  
designated port for a segment. Generally speaking, the faster the port, the lower the  
path cost. The default is 20000 for Gigabit ports.  
Configures the CIST port Hello time. The Hello time specifies how often the root bridge  
transmits a configuration bridge protocol data unit (BPDU). Any bridge that is not the  
root bridge uses the root bridge Hello value. The range is 1 to 10 seconds, and the  
default is 2 seconds.  
link auto|p2p|shared  
edge disable|enable  
Defines the type of link connected to the port, as follows:  
auto: Configures the port to detect the link type, and automatically match its settings.  
p2p: Configures the port for Point-To-Point protocol.  
shared: Configures the port to connect to a shared medium (usually a hub).  
The default link type is auto.  
Enables or disables this port as an edge port. An edge port is not connected to a  
bridge, and can begin forwarding traffic as soon as the link is up. Configure server  
ports as edge ports (enabled). This command is disabled by default.

Trunk groups can provide super-bandwidth connections between GbE2 Interconnect Switches or other trunk capable  
devices. A trunk is a group of ports that act together, combining their bandwidth to create a single, larger port. Up to  
12 trunk groups can be configured on the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, with the following restrictions.  
Any physical GbE2 Interconnect Switch port can belong to no more than one trunk group.  
Up to six ports/trunks can belong to the same trunk group.  
All ports in a trunk must have the same configuration for speed, flow control, and auto negotiation.  
Trunking from other devices must comply with Cisco® EtherChannel® technology.  
By default, port 17 and port 18 are trunked to support an internal switch-to-switch crosslink trunk.  
NOTE: See the HP ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switch Application Guide for information on  
how to use port trunks.

Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is the TCP/IP protocol that resides within the Internet layer. ARP resolves a physical  
address from an IP address. ARP queries machines on the local network for their physical addresses. ARP also  
maintains IP to physical address pairs in its cache memory. In any IP communication, the ARP cache is consulted to  
see if the IP address of the computer or the router is present in the ARP cache. Then the corresponding physical  
address is used to send a packet.  
The following table describes the ARP Configuration Menu options.

Static ARP entries are permanent in the ARP cache and do not age out like the ARP entries that are learnt  
dynamically. Static ARP entries enable the switch to reach the hosts without sending an ARP broadcast request to the  
network. Static ARPs are also useful to communicate with devices that do not respond to ARP requests. Static ARPs  
can also be configured on some gateways as a protection against malicious ARP Cache corruption and possible DOS  
attacks.

Table 148 OSPF Area Index Configuration Menu options  
Command  
Description  
areaid <IP address>  
type transit|stub|nssa  
Defines the IP address of the OSPF area number.  
Defines the type of area. For example, when a virtual link has to be established  
with the backbone, the area type must be defined as transit.  
Transit area: allows area summary information to be exchanged between  
routing devices. Any area that is not a stub area or NSSA is considered to be  
transit area.  
Stub area: is an area where external routing information is not distributed.  
Typically, a stub area is connected to only one other area.  
NSSA: Not-So-Stubby Area (NSSA) is similar to stub area with additional  
capabilities. For example, routes originating from within the NSSA can be  
propagated to adjacent transit and backbone areas. External routes from  
outside the Autonomous System (AS) can be advertised within the NSSA but  
are not distributed into other areas.  
metric <1-65535>  
Configures a stub area to send a numeric metric value. All routes received via that  
stub area carry the configured metric to potentially influencing routing decisions.  
Metric value assigns the priority for choosing the switch for default route. Metric  
type determines the method for influencing routing decisions for external routes.  
auth none|password|md5  
Defines the authentication method, as follows:  
None: No authentication required.  
Password: Authenticates simple passwords so that only trusted routing devices  
can participate.  
MD5: This parameter is used when MD5 cryptographic authentication is required.  
spf <0-255>  
Sets time interval between two successive SPF (shortest path first) calculations of the  
shortest path tree using the Dijkstra’s algorithm.

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) support on the GbE2 Interconnect Switch provides redundancy between  
routers in a LAN. This is accomplished by configuring the same virtual router IP address and ID number on each  
participating VRRP-capable routing device. One of the virtual routers is then elected as the master, based on a  
number of priority criteria, and assumes control of the shared virtual router IP address. If the master fails, one of the  
backup virtual routers will assume routing authority and take control of the virtual router IP address.  
By default, VRRP is disabled. For more information on VRRP, see the “High Availability” chapter in the HP ProLiant BL  
p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switch Application Guide.

This menu is used for configuring virtual routers for this switch. A virtual router is defined by its virtual router ID and  
an IP address. On each VRRP-capable routing device participating in redundancy for this virtual router, a virtual  
router will be configured to share the same virtual router ID and IP address.  
Virtual routers are disabled by default.

Description  
track  
Displays the VRRP Priority Tracking Menu for this virtual router. Tracking is a  
proprietary extension to VRRP, used for modifying the standard priority system  
used for electing the master router.  
vrid <1-255>  
Defines the virtual router ID. This is used in conjunction with addr(below) to  
define a virtual router on this switch. To create a pool of VRRP-enabled routing  
devices which can provide redundancy to each other, each participating VRRP  
device must be configured with the same virtual router: one that shares the  
same vridand addrcombination.  
The vridfor standard virtual routers (where the virtual router IP address is not  
the same as any virtual server) can be any integer between 1 and 255. The  
default value is 1.  
All vridvalues must be unique within the VLAN to which the virtual router’s IP  
interface belongs.  
addr <IP address>  
if <1-255>  
Defines the IP address for this virtual router using dotted decimal notation. This  
is used in conjunction with the vrid(above) to configure the same virtual  
router on each participating VRRP device. The default address is 0.0.0.0  
Selects a switch IP interface (between 1 and 255). If the IP interface has the  
same IP address as the addroption above, this switch is considered the  
“owner” of the defined virtual router. An owner has a special priority of 255  
(highest) and will always assume the role of master router, even if it must  
preempt another virtual router which has assumed master routing authority. This  
preemption occurs even if the preemoption below is disabled. The default  
value is 1.  
prio <1-254>  
Defines the election priority bias for this virtual server. This can be any integer  
between 1 and 254. The default value is 100.  
During the master router election process, the routing device with the highest  
virtual router priority number wins. If there is a tie, the device with the highest IP  
interface address wins. If this virtual router’s IP address (addr) is the same as  
the one used by the IP interface, the priority for this virtual router will  
automatically be set to 255 (highest).  
When priority tracking is used (/cfg/l3/vrrp/trackor  
/cfg/l3/vrrp/vr#/track), this base priority value can be modified  
according to a number of performance and operational criteria.  
adver <1-255>  
Defines the time interval between VRRP master advertisements. This can be any  
integer between 1 and 255 seconds. The default value is 1.  
preem disable|enable  
Enables or disables master preemption. When enabled, if this virtual router is in  
backup mode but has a higher priority than the current master, this virtual  
router will preempt the lower priority master and assume control. Note that  
even when preemis disabled, this virtual router will always preempt any other  
master if this switch is the owner (the IP interface address and virtual router  
addrare the same). By default, this option is enabled.

This menu is used for modifying the priority system used when electing the master router from a pool of virtual routers.  
Various tracking criteria can be used to bias the election results. Each time one of the tracking criteria is met, the  
priority level for the virtual router is increased by an amount defined through the VRRP Tracking Menu.  
Criteria are tracked dynamically, continuously updating virtual router priority levels when enabled. If the virtual router  
preemption option is enabled, this virtual router can assume master routing authority when its priority level rises  
above that of the current master.  
Some tracking criteria (vrs, ifs, and portsbelow) apply to standard virtual routers, otherwise called “virtual  
interface routers”. A virtual server router is defined as any virtual router whose IP address (addr) is the same as any  
configured virtual server IP address.  
The following table describes the Virtual Router Priority Tracking Configuration Menu options.

Description  
vrs disable|enable  
When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each virtual router

client/server pairing are handled by the same switch, increasing routing and load  
balancing efficiency. This command is disabled by default.  
ifs disable|enable  
ports disable|enable  
cur  
When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each other IP  
interface active on this switch. An IP interface is considered active when there is at least  
one active port on the same VLAN. This helps elect the virtual routers with the most  
available routes as the master. This command is disabled by default.  
When enabled, the priority for this virtual router will be increased for each active port on  
the same VLAN. A port is considered “active” if it has a link and is forwarding traffic.  
This helps elect the virtual routers with the most available ports as the master. This  
command is disabled by default.

Boot Options Menu  
Introduction  
You must be logged in to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch as the administrator to use the Boot Options Menu.  
The Boot Options Menu provides options for:  
Selecting a switch software image to be used when the GbE2 Interconnect Switch is next reset.  
Selecting a configuration block to be used when the GbE2 Interconnect Switch is next reset.  
Downloading or uploading a new software image to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch via FTP/TFTP.  
Menu information  
Command: /boot  
[Boot Options Menu]  
image - Select software image to use on next boot  
conf - Select config block to use on next boot  
gtimg - Download new software image via FTP/TFTP  
ptimg - Upload selected software image via FTP/TFTP

cur - Display current boot options  
Each of the Boot Options Menu commands is discussed in greater detail in the following sections.  
Updating the GbE2 Interconnect Switch software image  
The GbE2 Interconnect Switch software image is the executable code running on the switch. A version of the image  
ships with the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, and comes pre-installed on the device. As new versions of the image are  
released, you can upgrade the software running on your GbE2 Interconnect Switch.  
Upgrading the software image on your GbE2 Interconnect Switch requires the following:  
Loading the new image onto a FTP/TFTP server on your network  
Downloading the new image from the FTP/TFTP server to your GbE2 Interconnect Switch  
Selecting the new software image to be loaded into GbE2 Interconnect Switch memory the next time the switch  
is reset  
Downloading new software to your GbE2 Interconnect Switch  
The GbE2 Interconnect Switch can store up to two different software images, called image1 and image2, as well as  
boot software, called boot. When you download new software, you must specify where it should be placed: either  
into image1, image2, or boot.  
For example, if your active image is currently loaded into image1, you would probably load the new image software  
into image2. This lets you test the new software and reload the original active image (stored in image1), if needed.  
To download new software to your GbE2 Interconnect Switch, you will need the following:  
The image or boot software loaded on a FTP or TFTP server on your network  
The hostname or IP address of the FTP or TFTP server  
The user name and password for FTP server, if necessary  
The name of the new software image or boot file  
NOTE: The DNS parameters must be configured if specifying hostnames. See the “Domain name system  
configuration” section in the “Configuration Menu” chapter.

Selecting a configuration block  
When you make configuration changes to the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, you must save the changes so that they are  
retained beyond the next time the switch is reset. When you execute the save command, your new configuration  
changes are placed in the active configuration block. The previous configuration is copied into the backup  
configuration block.  
There is also a factory configuration block. This holds the default configuration set by the factory when your GbE2  
Interconnect Switch was manufactured. Under certain circumstances, it may be desirable to reset the GbE2  
Interconnect Switch configuration to the default. This can be useful when a custom-configured GbE2 Interconnect  
Switch is moved to a network environment where it will be re-configured for a different purpose.

Specify new block to use ["active"/"backup"/"factory"]:  
Resetting the GbE2 Interconnect Switch  
You can reset the GbE2 Interconnect Switch to make your software image file and configuration block changes occur.  
Resetting the GbE2 Interconnect Switch causes the Spanning Tree Protocol to restart. This process can be lengthy,  
depending on the topology of your network.  
To reset the GbE2 Interconnect Switch, at the Boot Options# prompt, enter:  
>> Boot Options# reset  
You are prompted to confirm your request.  
To display current boot options, enter:  
>> Boot Options# cur  
Accessing the ISCLI

The GbE2 Interconnect Switch administrator forces a switch panic. The panic option, found in the Maintenance  
Menu, causes the GbE2 Interconnect Switch to dump state information to flash memory, and then causes the  
switch to reboot.  
The GbE2 Interconnect Switch administrator enters the switch reset key combination (Ctrl-Shift-6) on a  
device that is attached to the console port.  
The GbE2 Interconnect Switch detects a hardware or software problem that requires a reboot.

Uuencode flash dump  
Command: /maint/uudmp  
Using this command, dump information is presented in uuencoded format. This format makes it easy to capture the  
dump information as a file or a string of characters.  
If you want to capture dump information to a file, set your communication software on your workstation to capture  
session data prior to issuing the uudmp command. This will ensure that you do not lose any information. Once  
entered, the uudmp command will cause approximately 23,300 lines of data to be displayed on your screen and  
copied into the file.  
Using the uudmp command, dump information can be read multiple times. The command does not cause the  
information to be updated or cleared from flash memory.  
Dump information is not cleared automatically. In order for any subsequent dump information to be written to flash  
memory, you must manually clear the dump region. For more information on clearing the dump region, see the  
“Clearing dump information” section later in this chapter.  
To access dump information, at the Maintenance# prompt, enter:  
Maintenance# uudmp  
The dump information is displayed on your screen and, if you have configured your communication software to do  
so, captured to a file. If the dump region is empty, the following displays:  
No FLASH dump available.

FTP/TFTP system dump put  
Command: /maint/ptdmp <server> <filename>  
Use this command to put (save) the system dump to a FTP or TFTP server.  
NOTE: If the FTP/TFTP server is running SunOS or the Solaris operating system, the specified ptdmp file must  
exist prior to executing the ptdmp command, and must be writable (set with proper permission, and not locked  
by any application). The contents of the specified file will be replaced with the current dump data.  
To save dump information via FTP/TFTP, at the Maintenance# prompt, enter:  
Maintenance# ptdmp <server> <filename>  
Type the FTP/TFTP server IP address or hostname as <server>, and the target dump file as <filename>.  
Clearing dump information  
Command: /maint/cldmp  
To clear dump information from flash memory, at the Maintenance# prompt, enter:  
Maintenance# cldmp  
The GbE2 Interconnect Switch clears the dump region of flash memory and displays the following message:  
FLASH dump region cleared.  
If the flash dump region is already clear, the switch displays the following message:  
FLASH dump region is already clear.  
Panic command  
Command: /maint/panic  
The panic command causes the GbE2 Interconnect Switch to immediately dump state information to flash memory  
and automatically reboot.  
To select panic, at the Maintenance# prompt, enter:  
>> Maintenance# panic  
A FLASH dump already exists.  
Confirm replacing existing dump and reboot [y/n]:  
Enter y to confirm the command:
