Related Commands
Command Description
als Enables the ALS mode.
Command Description
hw-module als restart Requests a restart pulse.
Syntax Description interval seconds Specifies the interval of the ALS pulse. The range is
100 to 20,000 seconds. Default is 300 seconds.
width seconds Specifies the width of the ALS pulse. The range is 2
to 200 seconds. Default is 200 seconds.
Command Default Pulse interval default is 300 seconds. Pulse width default is 200 seconds.
Usage Guidelines If a particular platform/OS/interface/controller has the capability to support two ranges, one range for Wave
Division Multiplexing (WDM) and another for non-WDM, use the following pulse width ranges:
WDM: 60 - 200 (default: 100)
Non-WDM: 2 - 100 (default: 4)
The recovery pulse interval is the period between the rising edge of pulses. The pulse interval needs to be
greater than the pulse width. If a particular platform/OS/interface/controller has the capability to support two
ranges, one range for WDM and another for non-WDM, use the following pulse width ranges:
WDM: 200 - 20000 (default: 300)
Non-WDM: 100 - 2000 (default: 100)
Examples The following example shows how to select an ALS pulse interval:

To enable Network Analysis Module (NAM) packet monitoring on an interface, use the
analysis-modulemonitoring command in interface configuration mode. To disable NAM packet monitoring,
use the no form of this command.
analysis-module monitoring
no analysis-module monitoring
12.3(7)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)T.
12.3(8)T4 This command was implemented on the following platforms: Cisco 2811,
Cisco 2821, Cisco 2851, and Cisco 3800 series.
Usage Guidelines When you enable NAM packet monitoring on an interface, Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) sends an extra
copy of each IP packet that is received or sent on that interface to the NAM through the analysis module
interface on the router and then through the internal NM-NAM interface.
Note Traffic sent through the internal NAM interface--and the routers analysis module interface--uses router
resources such as CPU, SDRAM bandwidth, and backplane Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI)
bandwidth. Therefore, Cisco recommends that you use the internal NAM interface to monitor WAN
interfaces and that you use the external NAM interface to monitor LAN interfaces.
Examples The following example shows how to enable NAM packet monitoring on a serial interface:
Router(config-if)# analysis-modulemonitoring
announce interval
To set an interval value for timing announcement packets, use the announceinterval command in Precision
Time Protocol clock port mode. To remove an announcement interval configuration, use the no form of this
command.
Syntax Description interval-value Specifies the interval for announce messages. The
intervals use log base 2 values, as follows:
4--1 packet every 16 seconds
3--1 packet every 8 seconds
2--1 packet every 4 seconds
1--1 packet every 2 seconds
0--1 packet every second
Command Default For the IE 3000 switch, the default value is 1. For the MWR 2941 router, the default value is 2.
Usage Guidelines The interval value defined by this command impacts the timeout value defined by the announcetimeout
command.
Related Commands
Command Description
announce timeout Sets the timeout value for timing announcement
packets.
announce timeout
To set a timeout value for timing announcement packets, use the announcetimeout command in Precision
Time Protocol clock port mode. To remove an announcement timeout configuration, use the no form of this

Device(config-ptp-clk)# clock-port slave slaveport
Device(config-ptp-port)# announce timeout 7
Device(config-ptp-port)# end
Related Commands
Command Description
announce interval Sets interval value for timing announcement packets.
apply
Usage Guidelines The apply command saves any new or changed satellite initial configuration parameters to the nonvolatile
memory of the Cisco IP VSAT satellite WAN network module (NM-1VSAT-GILAT) and initiates a network
module software reset. Commands entered in satellite initial configuration mode do not appear in the router
configuration.
When you enter the exit or end command to exit satellite initial configuration mode, the system automatically
saves any changed parameters to the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network modules nonvolatile memory and resets
the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module.
Note This command is typically used by an installation technician. Do not use this command unless your satellite
service provider instructs you to perform the satellite initial configuration and provides all necessary
parameter values.
Examples The following example shows what appears when you enter the apply command after changing some initial
configuration parameters:
Router(sat-init-config)# apply
Router(sat-init-config)# apply
Related Commands
Command Description
end (satellite initial configuration) Exits satellite initial configuration mode, saves any
new or changed parameters, and resets the Cisco IP
VSAT satellite WAN network module
(NM-1VSAT-GILAT).
exit (satellite initial configuration) Exits satellite initial configuration mode, saves any
new or changed parameters, and resets the Cisco IP
VSAT satellite WAN network module
(NM-1VSAT-GILAT).
aps authenticate
To enable authentication and specify the string that must be present to accept any packet on the out-of-band
(OOB) communications channel on a Packet-over-SONET (POS) interface, use the apsauthenticate command
in interface configuration mode. To disable authentication, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description string Text that must be present to accept the packet on a
protected or working interface. A maximum of eight
alphanumeric characters are accepted.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.

of this command.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Use the apsforcecommand to manually switch the interface to a protect interface when you are not using the
apsrevertcommand. For example, if you need to change the fiber connection, you can manually force the
working interface to switch to the protect interface.
In a one-plus-one (1+1) configuration only, you can use the apsforce0 command to force traffic from the
protect interface back onto the working interface.
Theapsforce command has a higher priority than any of the signal failures or the apsmanual command.
The apsforce command is configured only on protect interfaces.
Examples The following example shows how to force the circuit on POS interface 0 in slot 3 (a protect interface) back
onto a working interface:
Related Commands
Command Description
aps manual Manually switches a circuit to a protect interface.
from protection Specifies that you want to switch from the protect
port to the working port.
from working Specifies that you want to switch from the working
port to the protect port.
Usage Guidelines Forced is a defined APS request priority level. The request succeeds if no higher priority request (lockout is
the only higher priority request) is posted. The apsforcesonetcommand does not persist after a system restart.
The slot and port arguments indicate the SONET interface on which you want to issue the apsforcesonet
command. Theapsforcesonet command has a higher priority than any of the signal failures or the
apsmanualsonet command.

in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
15.1(1)S This command was modified. The acr keyword was added.
Usage Guidelines Use the aps groupcommand to specify more than one working and protect interface on a router--for example,
working channel for group 0 and protect channel for group 1 on one router, and working channel for group
1 and protect channel for group 0 on another router.
The default group number is 0. The aps group 0 command does not imply that no groups exist.
The aps group command must be configured on both the protect and working interfaces.
Use the acrkeyword to configure an ACR working or protect interface.
Examples The following example shows how to configure two working/protect interface pairs. Working interface (3/0/0)
is configured in group 10 (the protect interface for this working interface is configured on another router),
and protect interface (2/0/1) is configured in group 20.

12.0(17)S Support for the two-port STM-1/OC-3 channelized E1/T1 line card was
added.
12.2(14)S This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(14)S.
12.2(15)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)T.
Usage Guidelines In SDH, there are two possible mapping/multiplexing schemes for most payload types: ANSI and ETSI.
In ANSI mapping, the Low Order payloads are aggregated into a VC-3 High Order Path. An AU pointer is
added to the VC-3 to create an AU-3. Three such AU-3s are then synchronously multiplexed into an AUG.
The multiplexing scheme is as follows:
... VC-3 <-> AU-3 (x3) <-> AUG <-> STM-1
SDH ANSI mapping is very similar to the SONET frame structure.
In ETSI mapping, the Low Order payloads are aggregated into a VC-4 High Order Path. An AU pointer is
added to the VC-4 to create an AU-4 (Administrative Unit type 4). One AU-4 is multiplexed into an AUG
(AU group), which is to say, the AUG is, in fact, equivalent to an AU-4. The multiplexing scheme is as follows:
... TUG-3 (x3) <-> VC-4 <-> AU-4 (x1) <-> STM-1
This command is available only when SDH framing is configured.
This command does not have a no form because data must flow using one of the two mapping/multiplexing
schemes.
Examples The following example shows how to configure AU-3 mapping for the STM-1 trunk card:
auto-polarity

backup delay
To define how much time should elapse before a secondary line status changes after a primary line status has
changed, use the backupdelaycommand in interface configuration mode. To return to the default so that as
soon as the primary fails, the secondary is immediately brought up without delay, use the no form of this
command.
Syntax Description enable-delay-period Number of seconds that elapse after the primary line
goes down before the Cisco IOS software activates
the secondary line.
12.2(33)SRB1 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB1.
15.1(2)SNH This command was implemented on the Cisco ASR 901 Series
Aggregation Services Routers.
Usage Guidelines For environments in which spurious signal disruptions appear as intermittent lost carrier signals, we recommend
that you enable some delay before activating and deactivating a secondary line.
For the Cisco 7600 Backup Interface for Flexible UNI feature to work correctly, the enable and disable backup
delay must be 0.
Examples The following example sets a 10-second delay on deactivating the secondary line (serial interface 0); however,
the line is activated immediately.

interface to configure as a backup. Include a slash (/)
between the slot, port adapter, and port (for example,
1/1/1). See your hardware installation manual for the
specific slot, port adapter, and port numbers.
type number Type and port number of the interface that is being
configured as a backup.
12.2(33)SRB1 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB1.
Usage Guidelines The interface that you define with the backupinterface command can back up only one interface.
Serial, ISDN, and Ethernet backup interfaces are supported by the routers. Access servers support both
asynchronous backup interfaces and serial backup interfaces.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB1 and later releases, you can configure a backup interface for Gigabit
Ethernet interface on the Cisco 7600 router. The backup interface works only when the configurations on the
primary and backup interfaces are identical. This is applicable to all Cisco IOS platforms and interfaces.
Note If the interface configuration includes the xconnectcommand, you must specify a different virtual circuit
ID (VCID) on the primary and backup interfaces.
Examples The following example sets serial interface 1 as the backup line to serial interface 0:
Related Commands
Command Description
aps protect (SONET) Enables SONET APS.
atm > x / y / z > Specifies the backup location for the ATM
slot/subslot/port to be backed up.
vpi / vci > Specifies the backup location for the ATM virtual
path identifier/virtual channel identifier (VPI/VCI).
Usage Guidelines
Only the tail end AC can be backed up; if head end fails there is no protection.
The circuit type of the primary and backup AC must be identical (failover operation will not switch
between different types of interfaces).
Autoconfiguration is allowed for backup ATM Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVCs) or ATM Permanent
Virtual Paths (PVPs).
Dynamic modification of parameters in a local switching connection is not supported in the case where
the tail-end segment is backed up to a segment using the backupinterfaceatmcommand. If you want
to modify the parameters in any of the three segments (head-end, tail-end, or backup segment), you must
first unconfigure with the backupinterfaceatm command, make the changes in the individual segments,
and then reconfigure the backup with the backupinterfaceatm command.
Examples The following is an example of a ATM virtual path local switching backup:
Related Commands
Command Description
connect atm Configures a local switching connection.
cem > x / y / z Specifies the CEM interface slot, subslot, and port to
be backed up.
Usage Guidelines
Autoconfiguration of CEM interfaces is not supported.
Only the tail end AC can be backed up; if head end fails there is no protection.
The circuit type of the primary and backup AC must be identical (failover operation will not switch
between different types of interfaces or different CEM circuit types).
Backs up a local switching connection to cem-ckt3 of CEM interface cem3. Only one backup AC is
allowed for each connection.
Autoconfiguration of backup CEM circuits is not allowed.
The CEM circuit used as a backup in a local switching connection cannot be used for xconnect
configurations.
Dynamic modification of parameters in a local switching connection is not supported in the case where
the tail-end segment is backed up to a segment using the backupinterfacecemcommand. If you want
to modify the parameters in any of the three segments (head-end, tail-end, or backup segment), you must
first unconfigure with the backupinterfacecemcommand, make the changes in the individual segments,
and then reconfigure the backup with the backupinterfacecem command.
Related Commands
Command Description
connect cem Configures a local switching connection.
backup load
To set a traffic load threshold for dial backup service, use the backuploadcommand in interface configuration
mode. To return to the default value, use the no form of this command.
12.2(33)SRB1 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB1.
Usage Guidelines When the transmitted or received load on the primary line is greater than the value assigned to the
enable-threshold argument, the secondary line is enabled.
The secondary line is disabled when one of the following conditions occurs:
The transmitted load on the primary line plus the transmitted load on the secondary line is less than the
value entered for the disable-loadargument.
The received load on the primary line plus the received load on the secondary line is less than the value
entered for the disable-load argument.
If the neverkeyword is used instead of an enable-thresholdargument, the secondary line is never activated
because of traffic load. If the never keyword is used instead of a disable-load argument, the secondary line
is never activated because of traffic load.
Examples The following example sets the traffic load threshold to 60 percent of the primary line serial 0. When that
load is exceeded, the secondary line is activated and will not be deactivated until the combined load is less
than 5 percent of the primary bandwidth.
interface serial 0
backup load 60 5
backup interface serial 1
bandwidth (interface)
To set the inherited and received bandwidth values for an interface, use the bandwidth command in interface
or virtual network interface config mode. To restore the default values, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description kbps Intended bandwidth, in kilobits per second. The range
is from 1 to 10000000. For a full bandwidth DS3 line,
enter the value 44736.
Command Default Default bandwidth values are set during startup. The bandwidth values can be displayed using the show
interfaces or show ipv6 interface command. If the receive keyword is not used, by default, the transmit and
receive bandwidths will be assigned the same value.
12.2T This command was modified. The inherit keyword was added.
12.4(6)T This command was modified. Support for IPv6 was added.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set,
platform, and platform hardware.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.1 This command was implemented on Cisco ASR 1000 Aggregation Services
Series Routers.
Release Modification
Cisco IOS XE Release 3.2S This command was modified. Support was added for this command in
virtual network interface configuration mode.
15.1(03)S This command was modified. Support was added for the receive keyword.
Note This is only a routing parameter. It does not affect the physical interface.
Changing Bandwidth
For some media, such as Ethernet, the bandwidth is fixed; for other media, such as serial lines, you can change
the actual bandwidth by adjusting the hardware. For both classes of media, you can use the bandwidth
command to communicate the current bandwidth to the higher-level protocols.
Bandwidth Inheritance
Before the introduction of the bandwidth inherit command option, when the bandwidth value was changed
on the main interface, the existing subinterfaces did not inherit the bandwidth value. If the subinterface was
created before the bandwidth was changed on the main interface, the subinterface would receive the default
bandwidth of the main interface, and not the configured bandwidth. Additionally, if the router was subsequently
reloaded, the bandwidth of the subinterface would then change to the bandwidth configured on the main
interface.
The bandwidth inherit command controls how a subinterface inherits the bandwidth of its main interface.
This functionality eliminates inconsistencies related to whether the router has been reloaded and what the
order was in entering the commands.
The no bandwidth inherit command enables all subinterfaces to inherit the default bandwidth of the main
interface, regardless of the configured bandwidth. If the bandwidth inherit command is used without
configuring a bandwidth on a subinterface, all subinterfaces will inherit the current bandwidth of the main
interface. If you configure a new bandwidth on the main interface, all subinterfaces will use this new value.
If you do not configure a bandwidth on the subinterface and you configure the bandwidth inherit kbps
command on the main interface, the subinterfaces will inherit the specified bandwidth.
In all cases, if an explicit bandwidth setting is configured on an interface, the interface will use that setting,
regardless of whether the bandwidth inheritance setting is in effect.
Bandwidth Receipt
Some interfaces (such as Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL), V.35, RS-449, and High-Speed Serial
Interface (HSSI)) can operate with different transmit and receive bandwidths. The bandwidth receive command
permits this type of asymmetric operation. For example, for ADSL, the lower layer detects the two bandwidth
values and configures the Integrated Data Base (IDB) accordingly. Other interface drivers, particularly serial
interface cards on low- and midrange-platforms, can operate in this asymmetric bandwidth mode but cannot
measure their clock rates. In these cases, administrative configuration is necessary for asymmetric operations.
Examples The following example shows how to set the full bandwidth for DS3 transmissions:
Related Commands
Command Description
show interfaces Displays statistics for all interfaces configured on the
router.
show ipv6 interface Displays statistics for all interfaces configured on the
IPv6 router.
batch
To allow better cache utilization at the interface level, use the batch command under interface configuration
mode.
Syntax Description allowed Enables the batch process for packets received.
Usage Guidelines Use this command to increase the performance of packets processing through the interface to optimize the
cache usage. The performance improvement varies depending on the burstiness of the traffic. The traffic with
high burstiness provides better performance.
The batch command is disabled by default. The batch process depends on the batch threshold (x) which is
the number of packets received within a y ms period. The batch process is turned on if the number of packets
received within a y ms period exceeds x, otherwise it is turned off.
Currently, the batch command is supported at the interface level on Cisco 890 routers only.
Examples The following example shows the batch command configured in interface fastethernet ports:

Usage Guidelines Use the bertcontroller command to start a bit error rate test for a particular port on a Cisco AS5300 router.
Quality Testing
The BERT feature enables you to test the quality of the connected Primary Rate Interface (PRI) links by direct
comparison of a pseudorandom or repetitive test pattern with an identical locally generated test pattern.
E1 Controllers
The E1 controller cannot be set in loopback mode from the Cisco AS5300 router. For the bertcontroller
command to work correctly with the E1 controller, the controller must be configured as a channel group or
as channel-associated signaling (CAS) and the line must be configured as a remote loop from the switch side
of the link.
You can use the channel-groupchannel-group-number keyword and argument combination to specify a
channel-group. If the channel-group is specified, BERT will be run on the timeslots associated with the channel
group only. Otherwise, BERT will run on all the timeslots of the specified controller.

Usage Guidelines BER testing is supported on each of the T1 or E1 lines, is done only over an unframed T1 or E1 signal, and
is run on only one port at a time.
To view the BER test results, use the showcontrollersatmEXEC command. The BERT results include the
following information:
Type of test pattern selected
Status of the test
Interval selected
Time remaining on the BER test
Total bit errors
Total bits received
When the T1 or E1 line has a BER test running, the line state is DOWN and the status field shows the
current/last result of the test.
Thebertpatterncommand is not written to NVRAM because this command is only used to test the T1 or E1
line for a short predefined interval, and to avoid accidentally saving the command.
Examples The following example shows how to run a BERT pattern of all zeros on a Cisco 7200 series router for 30
minutes on the T1 controller in slot 1:
Router(config)#

12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in
a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines BER testing is supported on T3/E3 links and is done only over framed T3 or E3 signals, unless E3 framing
is in bypass mode.
To display the BER test results, use the show controllers t3 or show controllers e3 EXEC command. The BER
test results include the following information:
Type of test pattern selected
Status of the test
Interval selected
Time remaining on the BER test
Total bit errors
Total bits received
When the T3 or E3 line has a BER test running, the line state is DOWN and the status field shows the current
or last result of the test.
Thebertpatterncommand is not written to NVRAM because this command is used only to test the T3 or E3
line for a short predefined interval, and to avoid accidentally saving the command.
Examples The following example shows how to run a BERT pattern of all zeros for 30 minutes on the T3 controller in
slot 1:
Router(config)#

bert profile
To set up various bit error rate testing profiles, use the bert profile command in global configuration mode.
To disable the particular bit error rate test (BERT) profile indicated by profile number, use the no form of
this command.
bert profile number pattern pattern threshold threshold error-injection err-inj duration time
no bert profile number pattern pattern threshold threshold error-injection err-inj duration time
Syntax Description number BERT profile number. The valid range is from 1 to
15. This is the number assigned to a particular set of
parameters. If no such profile of the same number
exists in the system, a new profile is created with that
number; otherwise, an existing set of parameters with
that profile number is overwritten by the new profile.
error-injection Error injection rate for bit errors injected into the
BERT pattern generated by the chip.
Command Default The default profile created internally by the system has parameters that cannot be changed. This profile has
been defined so that you can execute BERT on a line without having to configure a new profile. The default
profile is displayed when the running configuration is displayed and is not stored in NVRAM:
bert profile number pattern 220-0151QRSS threshold 10^-6 error-injection none duration 10
12.0(3)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0(3)T.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Use the bert profile command to set up bit error rate testing profiles for the Cisco AS5300 router.
The bit error rate test (BERT) feature enables you to test the quality of the connected PRI links by direct
comparison of a pseudorandom or repetitive test pattern with an identical locally generated test pattern. A
BERT profile is a set of parameters related to a BERT test and is stored as part of the configuration in NVRAM.
You can define up to 15 BERT profiles on the system. By setting up the BERT profiles in this way, you do
not have to enter the parameters each time you want to run a BERT--just select the number of the BERT
profile that you want to run.
Examples The following example shows a configured BERT profile number 1 to have a 0s test pattern, with a 10-2
threshold, no error injection, and a duration of 125 minutes:
Router(config)#
bert profile 1 pattern 0s threshold 10^-2 error-injection none duration 125

12.2(18)SXF2 Support for the lan-fcs and broadcastkeywords was removed. The
ignore-bpdu-pidand pvst-tlvkeywords were added.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines RFC 1483 bridging on ATM interfaces supports the point-to-point bridging of Layer 2 packet data units
(PDUs) over Ethernet networks. RFC 1490 Frame Relay bridging on Packet over SONET (POS) or serial
interfaces that are configured for Frame Relay encapsulation provides bridging of Frame Relay packets over
Ethernet networks.
The Cisco 7600 router can transmit BPDUs with a PID of either 0x00-0E or 0x00-07. When the router connects
to a device that is fully compliant with RFC 1483 Appendix B, in which the IEEE BPDUs are sent and received
by the other device using a PID of 0x00-0E, you must not use the ignore-bpdu-pidkeyword.
If you do not enter the ignore-bpdu-pid keyword, the PVC between the devices operates in compliance with
RFC 1483 Appendix B. This is referred to as strict mode . Entering the ignore-bpdu-pid keyword creates
loose mode . Both modes are described as follows:
Without the ignore-bpdu-pidkeyword, in strict mode, IEEE BPDUs are sent out using a PID of 0x00-0E,
which complies with RFC 1483.
With the ignore-bpdu-pidkeyword, in loose mode, IEEE BPDUs are sent out using a PID of 0x00-07,
which is normally reserved for RFC 1483 data.
Cisco-proprietary PVST+ BPDUs are always sent out on data frames using a PID of 0x00-07, regardless of
whether you enter the ignore-bpdu-pid keyword.
Use the ignore-bpdu-pid keyword when connecting to devices such as ATM digital subscriber line (DSL)
modems that send PVST (or 802.1D) BPDUs with a PID of 0x00-07.
The pvst-tlv keyword enables BPDU translation when the router interoperates with devices that understand
only PVST or IEEE Spanning Tree Protocol. Because the Catalyst 6500 series switch ATM modules support
PVST+ only, you must use the pvst-tlv keyword when connecting to a Catalyst 5000 family switch that
understands only PVST on its ATM modules, or when connecting with other Cisco IOS routers that understand
IEEE format only.
When the router or switch is transmitting, the pvst-tlv keyword translates PVST+ BPDUs into IEEE BPDUs.
When the router or switch is receiving, the pvst-tlv keyword translates IEEE BPDUs into PVST+ BPDUs.
Note The bridge-domainand bre-connect commands are mutually exclusive. You cannot use both commands
on the same PVC for concurrent RFC 1483 and BRE bridging.
To preserve class of service (CoS) information across the ATM network, use the dot1q option. This
configuration uses IEEE 802.1Q tagging to preserve the VLAN ID and packet headers as they are transported
across the ATM network.
To enable service providers to use a single VLAN to support customers that have multiple VLANs, while
preserving customer VLAN IDs and segregating traffic in different customer VLANs, use the dot1q-tunnel
option on the service provider router. Then use the dot1q option on the customer routers.
Note The access, dot1q, and dot1q-tunnel options are mutually exclusive. If you do not specify any of these
options, the connection operates in raw bridging access mode, which is similar to access, except that the
connection does act on and transmit BPDU packets.
RFC 1483 bridging is supported on AAL5-MUX and AAL5-LLC Subnetwork Access Protocol (SNAP)
encapsulated PVCs. RFC-1483 bridged PVCs must terminate on the ATM interface, and the bridged traffic
must be forwarded over an Ethernet interface, unless the split-horizon option is used, which allows bridging
of traffic across bridged PVCs.
Note RFC 1483 bridging is not supported for switched virtual circuits (SVCs). It also cannot be configured for
PVCs on the main interface.
In interface configuration mode, only the dot1q and dot1q-tunnel keyword options are supported.
Examples The following example shows a PVC being configured for IEEE 802.1Q VLAN bridging using a VLAN ID
of 99:
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# end
The following example shows how to enable BPDU translation when a Catalyst 6500 series switch is connected
to a device that understands only IEEE BPDUs in an RFC 1483-compliant topology:
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# bridge-domain
100 pvst-tlv 150
The ignore-bpdu-pid keyword is not used because the device operates in an RFC 1483-compliant topology
for IEEE BPDUs.
The following example shows how to enable BPDU translation when a Catalyst 5500 ATM module is a device
that understands only PVST BPDUs in a non-RFC1483-compliant topology. When a Catalyst 6500 series
switch is connected to a Catalyst 5500 ATM module, you must enter both keywords.
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# bridge-domain
100 ignore-bpdu-pid pvst-tlv 150
To enable BPDU translation for the Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling ( L2PT) topologies, use the following
command:
Router(config-if-atm-vc)# bridge-domain
100 dot1q-tunnel ignore-bpdu-pid pvst-tlv 150
The following example shows a range of PVCs being configured, with the bridge domain number being
incremented for each PVC in the range:

Command Description

bridge-domain (subinterface)
To enable bridging across Gigabit Ethernet subinterfaces, use the bridge-domaincommand in subinterface
configuration mode. To disable bridging, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description vlan-id Specifies the number of the virtual LAN (VLAN) to
be used in this bridging configuration. The valid range
is from 2 to 4094.
Usage Guidelines This command has the following restrictions in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA:
The command is available on the Cisco 7600 SIP-400 with a 2-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA only.
You can place up to 120 subinterfaces in the same bridge domain on a single Cisco 7600 SIP-400.
To enable service providers to use a single VLAN to support customers who have multiple VLANs, while
preserving customer VLAN IDs and keeping traffic in different customer VLANs segregated, use the
dot1q-tunnel option on the service provider router. Then use the dot1q option on the customer routers.
Examples The following example shows configuration of IEEE 802.1Q encapsulation for VLANs on Gigabit Ethernet
subinterfaces with configuration of multipoint bridging (MPB). The MPB feature requires configuration of
802.1Q encapsulation on the subinterface.
The first subinterface bridges traffic on VLAN 100 and preserves CoS information in the packets by specifying
the dot1q keyword.

cable bundle
To configure a cable interface to belong to an interface bundle, use the cablebundlecommand in
interfaceconfiguration mode. To delete a cable interface bundle definition, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description number Specifies the bundle identifier. Valid range is from 1
to 255.
12.1(1a)T1 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.1(1a)T1.
12.0(8)SC This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0(8)SC
12.1(2)EC1 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.1(2)EC1.
Usage Guidelines You can configure up to four interface bundles. In each bundle, specify one interface as the master interface
by using the optional master keyword.
Configure only an IP address on the master interface. If an IP address is configured and the interface is not
specified as the master interface, any attempt to add an interface to a bundle is rejected.
Specify all generic IP networking information (such as IP address, routing protocols, and switching modes)
on the bundle master interface. Do not specify generic IP networking information on bundle slave interfaces.
If you attempt to add an interface to a bundle as nonmaster interface and an IP address is assigned to this
interface, the command will fail. You must remove the IP address configuration before you can add the
interface to a bundle.
If you have configured an IP address on a bundled interface and the interface is not the master interface, a
warning message appears.
Specify generic (not downstream or upstream related) cable interface configurations, such as source-verify
or Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) handling, on the master interface. Do not specify generic configuration
on nonmaster interfaces.
If you configure an interface as a part of a bundle and it is not the master interface, all generic cable
configuration for this interface is removed. The master interface configuration will then apply to all interfaces
in the bundle.
If you shut down or remove the master interface in a bundle, no data packets are sent to any of the interfaces
in this bundle. Packets are still physically received from nonmaster interfaces that have not been shut down,
but those packets will be discarded. Modems connected to those interfaces will not be disconnected immediately,
but modems going online will not be able to obtain an IP address, download their configuration file, or renew
their IP address assignment if the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) lease expires.
If you shut down a slave interface, only this shut down interface is affected.
Examples The following example shows how to configure interface 25 to be the master interface:

Usage Guidelines If you specify a secondary interface address, the giaddr field in the DHCP requests will be sent to the primary
address for DHCP requests received from cable modems, and to the secondary IP address for DHCP requests
received from hosts.
Examples The following example shows how to forward UDP broadcasts from cable modems to the DHCP server at
172.23.66.44:
Router(config-if)#
cable helper-address 172.23.66.44 cable-modem

12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in
a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines CT3IP Interface Processor and Clear Channel T3/E3 Network Module
The default cable length of 224 feet is used by the CT3IP interface processor and the Clear Channel T3/E3
network module.
PA-T3 and PA-2T3 Port Adapters
The default cable length of 49 feet is used by the PA-T3 and PA-2T3 port adapters.
Note Although you can specify a cable length from 0 to 450 feet, the hardware recognizes only two ranges: 0
to 49 and 50 to 450. For example, entering 35 feet uses the 0 to 49 range. If you later change the cable
length to 40 feet, there is no change because 40 is still within the 0 to 49 range. However, if you change
the cable length to 50, the 50 to 450 range is used. The actual number you enter is stored in the configuration
file.
Table 2: Cable Length Distances and Line Buildout for E3/T3 Controllers
Note Although you can specify a cable length from 0 to 450 feet, the hardware recognizes only two ranges: 0
to 49 and 50 to 450. For example, entering 35 feet uses the 0 to 49 range. If you later change the cable
length to 40 feet, there is no change because 40 is still within the 0 to 49 range. However, if you change
the cable length to 50, the 50 to 450 range is used. The actual number you enter is stored in the configuration
file.

Release Modification
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a
specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Note On the Cisco MC3810, you cannot use the cablelengthlong command on a DSX-1 interface only. The
cablelengthlong command can be used only on CSU interfaces.
A pulse equalizer regenerates a signal that has been attenuated and filtered by a cable loss. Pulse equalization
does not produce a simple gain, but it filters the signal to compensate for complex cable loss. A gain26 receiver
gain compensates for a long cable length equivalent to 26 dB of loss, whereas a gain36 compensates for 36
dB of loss.
The lengthening or buildingout of a line is used to control far-end crosstalk. Line build-out attenuates the
stronger signal from the customer installation transmitter so that the transmitting and receiving signals have
similar amplitudes. A signal difference of less than 7.5 dB is ideal. Line build-out does not produce simple
flat loss (also known as resistive flat loss). Instead, it simulates a cable loss of 7.5 dB, 15 dB, or 22.5 dB so
that the resulting signal is handled properly by the receiving equalizer at the other end.
Cisco 2600 and Cisco 3600 Series Routers
This command is supported on T1 long-haul links only. If you enter the cablelengthlong command on a
DSX-1 (short-haul) interface, the command is rejected.
The transmit attenuation value is best obtained by experimentation. If the signal received by the far-end
equipment is too strong, reduce the transmit level by entering additional attenuation.
Examples
Examples The following example shows how to increase the receiver gain by 36 decibels and decreases the transmitting
pulse by 15 decibels for a long cable on a Cisco AS5800:
AS5800(config)# controller t1 0
AS5800(config-controller)# cablelength long gain36 -15db
The following example shows how to configure the cable length for controller T1 0 on a Cisco MC3810 to a
decibel pulse gain of 36 decibels and a decibel pulse rate of -22.5 decibels:
MC3810(config)# controller t1 0
MC3810(config-controller)# cablelength long gain36 -22.5db
Examples On a Cisco 2600 or Cisco 3600 series router, the following example shows how to specify a pulse gain of 36
decibels and a decibel pulse rate of -7.5 decibels:

12.2(33)SCH This command was modified to support the Cisco 3 Gbps Wideband SPA card.
Usage Guidelines This command is supported on the Cisco uBR10012 universal broadband router and the Cisco 10000 series
routers.
Use this command to preprovision a slot in the router to accept a particular line card, so that you can configure
the interface without the card being physically present in the chassis. This command allows system
administrators to plan for future configurations, without having to wait for the physical hardware to arrive.
When the line card does arrive, the installer can bring the card online by inserting the card into the chassis
and connecting the necessary cables, without having to do any further configuration using the command-line
interface.
The type of card must be appropriate for the slot being specified. The list of supported card types depends on
the Cisco IOS software release in use and your platform. For the latest information about supported hardware
for your platform, see the release notes that correspond to your Cisco IOS software release and platform.
The table below lists the types of cards that are supported as card-types for the card command.
8fastethernet-1 mode {e1 | t1} (Cisco 10000 series router) Preprovisions a line card
slot for an 8-Port Fast Ethernet Half-Height line card
and optionally specifies its mode of operation. E1 is
the default.
The license supported depends on the card being specified. The list of supported license types depends on the
Cisco IOS software release in use and your platform. For the latest information about supported hardware for
your platform, see the release notes that correspond to your Cisco IOS software release and platform.
The table below lists the license supported by a card.
Cisco uBR-MC3GX60V
0 to 72 Downstream license count
none No license
On the Cisco uBR10012 router, you can use the card command to preprovision a router slot for a line card
or to preprovision one or more slots for a SPA interface processor (SIP), such as the Cisco Wideband SIP.
You can also use the card command to preprovision a SIP bay or subslot for a SPA, such as the Cisco Wideband
SPA or Cisco 3 Gbps Wideband SPA.
The Cisco uBR10012 universal broadband router has the following card slot requirements:
Slots 1/1 and 2/1 are reserved for TCC+ utility cards. A utility card and a SPA can co-exist on a Cisco
uBR10012 router with an index of 1/1.
Slots 1/0 through 4/0 are reserved for network uplink line cards.
Slots 1 and 3 can be used for SIPs. Each SIP occupies two physical slots in a Cisco uBR10012 router
(slot pair 1/2 or slot pair 3/4). Slot 1 is recommended for the Cisco Wideband SIP.
Slot 5/0 through 8/1 are reserved for cable interface line cards.
Tip A preprovisioned card is displayed the same way as a card physically present in the chassis. Some show
commands might also list the preprovisioned card in their displays. In addition, using the card command
does not change the output of the ENTITY-MIB, which displays physically and logical components
installed in the router.
When a line card is inserted in the Cisco uBR10012 chassis, the router performs the following actions,
depending on whether the card slot is preprovisioned for the card:
If the inserted line card matches the type of line card preprovisioned for the slot, the system applies the
preprovisioned configuration to the line card.
If the line card slot was not preprovisioned, the system applies a basic configuration to the line card and
adds that configuration to the running configuration file.
If the line card slot was preprovisioned for one type of line card, but another type of line card has been
inserted, the system replaces the preprovisioned configuration (in the running configuration file) with
a basic configuration for the line card that was actually inserted. The startup configuration file is not
changed.
Tip Use the showrunning-config|includecardcommand to display which slots, if any, are preprovisioned for
a particular card type.
The noversionofthecommand removes the preprovisioning information from the given card slot. This also
removes all configuration information for that card slot, as well as any information in the SNMP MIB database
about the card and its card slot.
Cisco 10000 Series Router Usage Guidelines
You must specify a line card slot and subslot, and the line card for which you want to preprovision the line
card slot.
If you insert a line card into a line card slot that has been preprovisioned for a different line card, the line card
will fail.
You can specify a mode of operation for the 24-Port Channelized E1/T1 line card. If you do not, the line card
operates in the E1 mode.
In Cisco IOS releases earlier than 12.0(28)S, 12.2(16)BX, and 12.3(7)XI1, you used only the card command
to change the provisioning of a line card slot. It was not necessary to remove the old line card before using
the card command to change the line card provisioning.
In Cisco IOS releases after 12.0(28)S, 12.2(16)BX, and 12.3(7)XI1, you must deactivate the installed line
card using the hw-module and no card commands before using the card command to provision the line card
slot for a different line card. This is a general best practice when using the card command.
Examples
Examples The following example shows a list of supported card types, and then shows that slot 8/0 is being preprovisioned
for a Cisco uBR10-MC5X20S cable interface line card. The cable interface for slot 8/0/0 can then be configured.
Router# config t
Router(config)# card 8/0 ?
Router(config-if)#
The following example shows how to preprovision a Cisco Wideband SIP:

Usage Guidelines Usage guidelines vary slightly from platform to platform as follows:
T3 or E3 Controllers
Once a card type is issued, you enter the nocardtype command and then another cardtype command to
configure a new card type. You must save the configuration to the NVRAM and reboot the router in order
for the new configuration to take effect.
When the router comes up, the software comes up with the new card type. Note that the software will reject
the configuration associated with the old controller and old interface. You must configure the new controller
and serial interface and save it.
Clear Channel T3/E3 Shared Port Adapters
To change all the SPA ports from T3 to E3, or vice versa, you enter the nocardtype command and then another
cardtype command to configure a new card type.
When the router comes up, the software comes up with the new card type. Note that the software will reject
the configuration associated with the old controller and old interface. You must configure the new controller
and serial interface and save it.
Clear Channel T3/E3 Shared Port Adapters on Cisco 12000 Series Routers
The no form of this command is not available on the 2-Port and 4-Port Clear Channel T3/E3 SPA on Cisco
12000 series routers. To change an existing card type on Cisco 12000 series routers, perform the following
steps:

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set,
platform, and platform hardware.
12.2(33)SRD This command was modified. The up and down keywords were added.
12.2(33)SXI This command was modified. Support for the up and down keywords was
added.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.3 This command was modified. Support for Cisco ASR 1000 Series
Aggregation Services Routers was added.
The default carrier transition delay is 10 milliseconds on all Ethernet interfaces. This enables the carrier-delay
time to ensure fast link detection.
If a link goes down and comes back before the carrier delay timer expires, the down state is effectively filtered,
and the rest of the software on the router is not aware that a link-down event has occurred. Therefore, a large
carrier delay timer results in fewer link-up/link-down events being detected. However, setting the carrier delay
time to 0 means that every link-up/link-down event is detected.
In most environments a lower carrier delay is better than a higher one. The exact value that you choose depends
on the nature of the link outages that you expect in your network and how long you expect those outages to
last.
If data links in your network are subject to short outages, especially if those outages last less than the time
required for your IP routing to converge, you should set a relatively long carrier delay value to prevent these
short outages from causing disruptions in your routing tables. If outages in your network tend to be longer,
you might want to set a shorter carrier delay so that the outages are detected sooner and the IP route convergence
begins and ends sooner.
The following restrictions apply to carrier delay configuration:
The Fast Link and Carrier Delay features are mutually exclusive. If you configure one feature on an
interface, the other is disabled automatically.
Administrative shutdown of an interface will force an immediate link-down event regardless of the
carrier delay configuration.
Cisco IOS releases that support the up and down keywords allow asymmetric carrier delay (ACD) configuration.
ACD allows you to configure separate delay times for link-up and link-down event notification on physical
interfaces that support ACD, such as the SIP-200- and SIP-400-based interfaces. With ACD, link-up and
link-down events can be notified with different delay times.
The following restrictions apply to ACD configurations:
You cannot configure ACD on an interface if conventional carrier delay (the carrier-delay command
without an up or down keyword) is configured on the interface.
You can configure Link-up carrier delay times in seconds. Link-down carrier delay times are configured
in milliseconds, using the msec keyword, or in seconds.
Asymmetric carrier delay is supported by the following Ethernet Shared Port Adapters (SPA)s on Cisco ASR
1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers:
SPA-1X10GE-L-V2
SPA-2X1GE-V2
SPA-4X1FE-TX-V2

2691, Cisco 3631, Cisco 3660, Cisco 3725, and Cisco 3745.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a
specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Use this command to direct HDLC traffic from the T1/E1 interface to the AIM-ATM-VOICE-30 DSP card.
A channel group is created using Advanced Integration Module (AIM) HDLC resources when a channel-group
command with the aim keyword is parsed during system initialization or when the command is entered during
configuration. You must specify the aim keyword under a T1/E1 controller port to direct HDLC traffic from
the T1/E1 interface to the AIM-ATM-VOICE-30 DSP card on the Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 2600XM series,
Cisco 2691, Cisco 3631, Cisco 3660, Cisco 3725, and Cisco 3745.
Note Neither the Cisco AS5400 series NAS nor the Cisco MC3810 is supported with the integrated voice and
data WAN on T1/E1 interfaces using the AIM-ATM-VOICE-30 module.
If previous channel-group commands are configured with the aim keyword, subsequent channel-group
commands without the aim keyword are rejected. Similarly, if a regular channel-group command is followed
by another channel-group command with the aim keyword implemented, the second command is rejected
on the Cisco 2600 and Cisco 2600XM.
A channel group using AIM HDLC resources is deleted only when a nochannel-group command is entered.
By default, thechannel-group command on a NAS sets the serial interface object encapsulation to HDLC.
You must override the default by entering the encapsulationss7 command for that serial interface object.
Once you override the default, encapsulation cannot be changed again for that object. The SS7 encapsulation
option is new to the Integrated Signaling Link Terminal feature and is available only for interface serial objects
created by thechannel-group command. The Integrated Signaling Link Terminal feature added SLT
functionality on Cisco AS5350 and Cisco AS5400 platforms.
A digital SS7 link can be deleted by entering the nochannel-groupchannel-group-number command on the
associated T1/E1 controller. The link must first be stopped using the noshutdown command. It is not necessary
to remove the channel ID association first.
Use the channel-group command in configurations where the router or access server must communicate with
a T1 or E1 fractional data line. The channel group number may be arbitrarily assigned and must be unique
for the controller. The time-slot range must match the time slots assigned to the channel group. The service
provider defines the time slots that comprise a channel group.
Note Channel groups, channel-associated signaling (CAS) voice groups, DS0 groups, and time-division
multiplexing (TDM) groups all use group numbers. All group numbers configured for channel groups,
CAS voice groups, and TDM groups must be unique on the local Cisco MC3810 concentrator. For example,
you cannot use the same group number for a channel group and for a TDM group. Furthermore, on the
Cisco MC3810, only one channel group can be configured on a controller.
The channel group number can be 0 or 1 on the Cisco SLT (Cisco 2611).
The channel-group command also applies to Voice over Frame Relay, Voice over ATM, and Voice over
HDLC on the Cisco MC3810.
Examples The following example shows basic configuration directing HDLC traffic from the T1/E1 interface to the
AIM-ATM-VOICE-30 DSP card, starting in global configuration mode:
Router(config)# controller T1 0
Router(config-controller)# channel-group 10 timeslots 10-64
The following example configures a channel group on controller E1 1 and specifies that all time slots are used
for data:
controller e1 1
channel-group 1 unframed
Note SS7 digital F-link support for the 8PRI line card requires use of a third onboard TDM stream to route
trunk DS0 messages to the onboard MGCs.

IP Address for the Physical Interface
You do not have to disable the IP address that is assigned to a physical interface that is part of a channel group,
but Cisco highly recommends doing so.
Layer 2 and Layer 3 Port Channels
You can create both Layer 2 and Layer 3 port channels by entering the interface port-channel command or,
when the channel-group gets its first physical interface assignment. The port channels are not created at run
time, nor are they created dynamically.
You do not have to create a port-channel interface before assigning a physical interface to a channel group.
A port-channel interface is automatically created when the channel group gets its first physical interface, if it
is not already created.
Propagation of Configuration and Attribute Changes
Any configuration or attribute changes you make to the port-channel interface are propagated to all interfaces
within the same channel group as the port channel. (for example, configuration changes are also propagated
to the physical interfaces that are not part of the port-channel, but are part of the channel group.)
The on Keyword
When you use the onkeyword, a usable EtherChannel exists only when a port group in on mode is connected
to another port group in the on mode.
Cisco 2600 Series, Cisco 3600 Series, and Cisco 3700 Series Routers
You do not have to create a port-channel interface before assigning a physical interface to a channel group.

The Cisco ASR 1000 series router has the following prerequisites and restriction:
A port-channel must be created before member links are assigned to it.
IP addresses must be disabled on member links before those links can be included in a port-channel.
Fast Ethernet interfaces are not supported.
Entering the auto or desirable keyword enables PAgP on the specified interface; the command will be rejected
if it is issued on an LACP-enabled interface.
The active and passive keywords are valid on PAgP-disabled interfaces only.
You can change the mode for an interface only if it is the only interface that is designated to the specified
channel group.
The on keyword forces the bundling of the interface on the channel without any negotiation.
You can manually configure a switch with PAgP on one side and LACP on the other side in the on mode.
With the on mode, a usable EtherChannel exists only when a port group in on mode is connected to another
port group in on mode.
If you enter the channel group command on an interface that is added to a channel with a different protocol
than the protocol you are entering, the command is rejected.
If the interface belongs to a channel, the no form of this command is rejected.
All ports in the same channel group must use the same protocol; you cannot run two protocols on one channel
group.
PAgP and LACP are not compatible; both ends of a channel must use the same protocol.
You can change the protocol at any time, but this change causes all existing EtherChannels to reset to the
default channel mode for the new protocol.
Configure all ports in an EtherChannel to operate at the same speed and duplex mode (full duplex only for
LACP mode).
All ports in a channel must be on the same DFC-equipped module. You cannot configure any of the ports to
be on other modules.
On systems that are configured with nonfabric-enabled modules and fabric-enabled modules, you can bundle
ports across all modules, but those bundles cannot include a DFC-equipped module port.
You do not have to create a port-channel interface before assigning a physical interface to a channel group.
A port-channel interface is created automatically when the channel group gets its first physical interface, if it
is not already created.
You do not have to disable the IP address that is assigned to a physical interface that is part of a channel group,
but it is highly recommended.
You can create both Layer 2 and Layer 3 port channels by entering the interface port-channel command or
when the channel group gets its first physical interface assignment. The port channels are not created at runtime
or dynamically.
Any configuration or attribute changes that you make to the port-channel interface are propagated to all
interfaces within the same channel group as the port channel (for example, configuration changes are also
propagated to the physical interfaces that are not part of the port channel but are part of the channel group).
When configuring Layer 2 EtherChannels, you cannot put Layer 2 LAN ports into manually created port-channel
logical interfaces.
Only the on mode is supported when using this command with GE-WAN ports on the OSM-2+4GE-WAN+
OSM to create QinQ link bundles for advanced QinQ translation. Also, you cannot use the channel-group
command on GE-WAN interfaces if MPLS is configured. You must remove all IP, MPLS, and other Layer
3 configuration commands before using the channel-group command with GE-WAN interfaces.
Note The GE-WAN interfaces on an OSM-2+4GE-WAN+ OSM behave slightly differently than other interfaces
if you want to move the interface from one group to another. To move most other interfaces, you can enter
the channel-group command again to delete the interface from the old group and move it to the new
group. For GE-WAN ports, however, you must manually remove the interface from the group by entering
the no channel-group command before assigning it to a new group.
Caution Do not enable Layer 3 addresses on the physical EtherChannel interfaces. Assigning bridge groups on the
physical EtherChannel interfaces causes loops in your network.
For a complete list of guidelines, see the Configuring EtherChannel section of the Cisco 7600 Series Router
Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide.
Fast EtherChannel
Before you assign a Fast Ethernet interface to a Fast EtherChannel group, you must first create a port-channel
interface. To create a port-channel interface, use the interface port-channel global configuration command.
If the Fast Ethernet interface has an IP address assigned, you must disable it before adding the Fast Ethernet
interface to the Fast EtherChannel. To disable an existing IP address on the Fast Ethernet interface, use the
no ip addresscommand in interface configuration mode.
The Fast EtherChannel feature allows multiple Fast Ethernet point-to-point links to be bundled into one logical
link to provide bidirectional bandwidth of up to 800 Mbps. Fast EtherChannel can be configured between
Cisco 7500 series routers and Cisco 7000 series routers with the 7000 Series Route Switch Processor (RSP7000)
and 7000 Series Chassis Interface (RSP7000CI) or between a Cisco 7500 series router or a Cisco 7000 series
router with the RSP7000 and RSP700CI and a Cisco Catalyst 5000 switch.
A maximum of four Fast Ethernet interfaces can be added to a Fast EtherChannel group.
Caution The port-channel interface is the routed interface. Do not enable Layer 3 addresses on the physical Fast
Ethernet interfaces. Do not assign bridge groups on the physical Fast Ethernet interfaces because it creates
loops. Also, you must disable spanning tree.
To display information about the Fast EtherChannel, use the show interfaces port-channelEXEC command.
For more guidelines see the Configuring EtherChannel section of the Cisco 7600 Series Router Cisco IOS
Software Configuration Guide and the Configuring EtherChannel section of the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch
Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide

no channelized
12.1(5a)E This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.1(5a)E.
12.2(13)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(13)T.
12.2(31)SB This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(31)SB.
Usage Guidelines Use the no channelized controller configuration command to configure the T3 controller for unchannelized
mode. When you configure the PA-MC-2T3+ port adapter on a Cisco 7500 series router with the no channelized
command, the MTU size is set to 4470. In channelized mode, the default MTU size is 1500. The change in
MTU sizes will cause a memory recarve and CBus complex to occur, disrupting all traffic on the router for
several minutes.
The following message will be displayed when commands initiate switching between channelized and
unchannelized modes on a Cisco 7500 series router:
Change to subrate mode will cause cbus complex reset. Proceed? [yes/no]:
Y
Type Y for yes at the end of the warning. At the prompt, type ^Z to exit. You will exit configuration mode
and enter unchannelized mode.
Caution The no channelized command removes all channel groups from a channelized T3 interface. If you have
already configured channel groups, use this command with caution.

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Examples This example shows how to clear the interrupt-throttling counters for the platform:
Router#
clear platform netint
Router#
Related Commands
Command Description
show platform netint Displays the platform network-interrupt information.
Usage Guidelines When the Cisco CSR 1000V boots for the first time, the vNICs on the hypervisor are mapped to the Gigabit
Ethernet network interfaces on the router. The system maintains a database for mapping the interfaces, and
the mapping stays persistent as long as vNICs are not removed from the system.
The clear platform software vnic-if-nvtable command is used when you clone the Cisco CSR 1000V
configuration to a new VM. You enter the command on the cloned VM instance of the Cisco CSR 1000V so
that the Gigabit Ethernet router interfaces on the cloned VM map to new vNICs. If the interface mapping
from the original VM is not cleared on the cloned VM, then the Cisco CSR 1000V feature license may be
invalidated.
Use the show platform software vnic-if interface-mapping command to verify the updated interface mapping.
Examples The following example clears the Cisco CSR 1000V interface mapping to the vNICs on the hypervisor:
se-10-0-0-0(config)# clear platform software vnic-if-nvtable
clear rbscp
To reset and restart a Rate Based Satellite Control Protocol (RBSCP) tunnel, use the clearrbscp command
in privileged EXEC mode.
Syntax Description tunnel (Optional) Resets and restarts the RBSCP tunnel
interface specified in the tunnel-numberargument. If
a tunnel interface is not specified, all RBSCP tunnels
are reset and restarted.
tunnel-number --Number of the tunnel interface
in the range from 0 to 2147483647.
Usage Guidelines The clearrbscpcommand resets the tunnel interface to its initial state and this clears RBSCP statistical
information. Use this command for troubleshooting issues with RBSCP tunnels.
Examples The following example shows how to clear the RBSCP statistics. A showrbscpstatistics command is issued
first to display the current RBSCP counters for tunnel interface 0. The clearrbscpcommand is then entered
to reset and restart tunnel interface 0. All the counters for tunnel interface 0 are reset to zero. A final
showrbscpstatistics command is issued to show that all the counters, except those counters that show the
packets sent since the clearing, are reset to zero.

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Use this command only in severe circumstances (for example, when the router is not responding to a CSU/DSU
configuration command).
This command terminates all DTE and line loopbacks that are locally or remotely configured. It also interrupts
data transmission through the router for up to 15 seconds. The software performs an automatic software reset
in case of two consecutive configuration failures.
The CSU/DSU module is not reset with the clearinterface command.
Caution If you experience technical difficulties with your router and intend to contact customer support, refrain
from using this command. This command erases the routers past CSU/DSU performance statistics. To
clear only the CSU/DSU performance statistics, issue the clearcounterscommand.
Examples The following example show how to reset the CSU/DSU on a router:

clock destination
To specify the IP address of a Precision Time Protocol clock destination, use the clockdestination command
in interface configuration mode. To remove a clock destination configuration, use the no form of this command.
Usage Guidelines If the clock port is set to master mode with unicast and negotiation is disabled, you can only configure a single
destination. If the clock port is set to master mode with unicast negotiation, you do not need to use this
command because the device uses negotiation to determine the IP address of PTP slave devices.
Examples The following example shows how to configure a PTP clock destination:
Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# ptp clock ordinary domain 0
Device(config-ptp-clk)# clock-port masterPort master
Device(config-ptp-port)# clock destination 192.168.1.2
Device(config-ptp-port)# end
Related Commands
Command Description
clock source Specifies a PTP clock source.
clock mode
To configure the clock mode of a serial circuit emulation (CEM) channel, use the clockmode command in
CEM configuration mode. To reset the clock mode to its default, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description normal Specifies normal mode, in which the DCE, whether
it is a CEM over IP (CEoIP) data port or the external
data device, provides both the receive clock and the
transmit clock to the DTE.
Command Default The serial CEM channel clock defaults to normal mode.
Examples The following example shows how to configure the CEM clock for normal mode.

clock rate
To configure the clock rate for the hardware connections on serial interfaces such as network interface modules
(NIMs) and interface processors to an acceptable bit rate, use the clockrate command in interface configuration
mode. To remove the clock rate if you change the interface from a DCE to a DTE device, use the no form of
this command. Using the no form of this command on a DCE interface sets the clock rate to the
hardware-dependent default value.
Syntax Description bps Desired clock rate, in bits per second: 1200, 2400,
4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 56000, 64000, 72000,
125000, 148000, 250000, 500000, 800000, 1000000,
1300000, 2000000, 4000000, or 8000000
For the synchronous serial port adapters (PA-8T-V35,
PA-8T-X21, PA-8T-232, and PA-4T+), a nonstandard
clock rate can be used. You can enter any value from
300 to 8000000 bps. The clock rate you enter is
rounded (adjusted), if necessary, to the nearest value
that your hardware can support except for the
following standard rates: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600,
14400, 19200, 28800, 38400, 56000, 64000, 128000,
or 2015232.

PA-8T-V35, PA-8T-X21, PA-8T-232, and PA-4T+ synchronous serial port
adapters.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a
specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Examples The following example shows how to set the clock rate on the first serial interface to 64,000 bps:

12.2(13)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(13)T.
12.3(2)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.3(2)T for the
following platforms: Cisco 1721, Cisco 2610XM-2651XM, Cisco 2691, and
Cisco 3660.
Usage Guidelines The communication between digital subscriber line (DSL) WICs and a host in a router occurs through a device
called the SCC. If a host wants to forward data or send any control traffic to a DSL WIC, it uses SCCs. In the
same way, if a DSL WIC wants to forward incoming data from a line to the host, it also uses SCCs. Each
DSL WIC installed in the router uses two SCCs. One SCC (SCC-A) is used for AAL5 data traffic, and the
other SCC (SCC-B) is used for AAL2 and control traffic. The speed at which the SCC transfers data between
a host and a WIC depends on the clock rate with which it has been configured. You can configure this clock
rate on the basis of the DSL line rate. Even though the DSL upstream and downstream line rate may vary, the
clock rate between the SCC and the DSL WIC is the same for both the transmitting and receiving direction.
That is, the communication between the SCC and the DSL WIC is synchronous. Therefore, you need to
configure only one clock rate for an SCC that will be used for both transmitting and receiving between an
SCC and a DSL WIC.
We always recommend that you configure the SCC clock rate slightly higher than the DSL line rate to
accommodate overhead between the SCC and the DSL WIC. For an asynchronous DSL WIC (for example,
ADSL), the SCC clock rate depends on either the downstream or the upstream line rate, whichever is the
maximum rate. For a synchronous DSL WIC (for example, G.SHDSL), the bandwidth for upstream and
downstream is the same. Therefore, the SCC clock rate configuration can be based on either the upstream or
the downstream line rate.
Because the maximum line rate for G.SHDSL is 2.312 Mbps, the default SCC clock rate of 2.6 Mbps for
AAL5 and 1 Mbps for AAL2 should be sufficient. However, for ADSL, the clock rate may need to be configured
on the basis of the current line rate. If AAL2 is used for voice traffic, the AAL2 SCC must be configured to
the appropriate clock rate: 1 Mbps for ADSL and 2.6 Mbps for G.SHDSL.
The maximum data rate between an SCC and a DSL WIC depends primarily on the maximum clock rate that
the SCC can support. For example, on the Cisco 2600 series mainboard, which supports two DSL WICs, the
total SCC clock rate that can be configured for both WICs is 8 Mbps. Therefore, if only one DSL WIC is
present on the mainboard, AAL5 and AAL2 clock rates can be configured to 7 Mbps and 1 Mbps, respectively.
If two DSL WICs are supported on the mainboard, the total of 8 Mbps should be distributed among the four
SCCs.
Network module SCCs also pose similar limitations. That is, on the Cisco 2600 series, the total clock rate for
all four SCCs is 8 Mbps. The maximum AAL5 clock rate that may be configured on a network module is 5.3
Mbps. On the Cisco 1700 series, the maximum configurable SCC clock rate for both AAL5 and AAL2 is 8
Mbps.
If the clock rate is not configured, the SCC is reset to the default values.
The clock rate can be configured independently for each SCC. To verify the clock rate setting, use the
showrunning-config command.
Examples The following example shows how to set the clock rate to 2 Mbps for AAL5 and to 1.3 Mbps for AAL2 for
a Cisco 2600 or Cisco 3600 series router:

adapters.
Release Modification
12.4(5)M The value range for the rate argument was updated to support additional baud
rates of 300, 600, 1792K, and 1920K bps on CEM Network Modules.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a
specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Using the no form of this command on a DCE interface sets the clock rate to the hardware-dependent default
value.
Cable Length
Be aware that the fastest speeds might not work if your cable is too long and that speeds faster than 148,000
bits per second are too fast for EIA/TIA-232 signaling. It is recommended that you use the synchronous serial
EIA/TIA-232 signal at speeds up to 64,000 bits per second only. To permit a faster speed, use EIA/TIA-449
or V.35.
Synchronous Serial Port Adapters
For the synchronous serial port adapters (PA-8T-V35, PA-8T-X21, PA-8T-232, and PA-4T+) on Cisco 7200
series routers and on second-generation Versatile Interface Processors (VIP2s) in Cisco 7500 series routers,
the clock rate that you enter is rounded (if needed) to the nearest value that your hardware can support. To
display the clock rate value for the port adapter, use the showrunning-configcommand.
If you plan to boot from a network (TFTP) server over a synchronous serial port adapter interface and have
a boot image prior to Cisco IOS Release 11.1(9)CA that does not support nonstandard (rounded) clock rates
for the port adapters, you must use one of the following standard clock rates:
1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 56000, 64000

12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command sets clocking for individual T1/E1 links.
Make sure that you specify the clock source correctly for each link, even if you are planning to specify that
a certain link will provide clocking for all the links in an IMA group. Because links may be taken in and out
of service, requiring that the system select another link for common clocking, any link in an IMA group may
provide the common clock.
If the ATM interface is part of an IMA group, you can use the loop-timed keyword to specify that the clock
source is the same as the IMA group clock source.
Examples On a Cisco 2600 or 3600 series router, the following example specifies an internal clock source for the link:

To specify the clock source of a 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GE) line card, use the clocksource command in interface
configuration mode. To restore the clock source to its default setting, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description internal Uses the internal clock. This is the default.
Usage Guidelines When the clock source is internal, the port receive (Rx) clock is not eligible as the system clock source. The
port transmit (Tx) clock is synchronized to the system clock.
When the clock source is line, the port Rx clock is eligible as the system clock source. The port Tx clock is

interface that has the most reliable clocking. Configure the clocksourcelinesecondary command on the T1
interface that has the next best known clocking. With this configuration, the primary line clocking is backed
up to the secondary line if the primary clocking shuts down.
Examples The following example configures the Cisco AS5200 access server to use T1 controller 0 as the primary clock
source and T1 controller 1 as the secondary clock source:

Cisco NM-CEM-4TE1
clock source {internal| line| adaptive channel-number [closed-loop| open-loop| coarse]}
no clock source {internal| line| adaptive channel-number [closed-loop| open-loop| coarse]}
Syntax Description internal Specifies that the clocks provided by the port to the
attached CPE are derived from the routers TDM bus
backplane clock (if one exists in the router) or from
the onboard oscillator on the network module. This
is the default clock source for a Cisco
NM-CEM-4SER.
Usage Guidelines When clock source internal is specified, the clocks provided by the network module are derived from either
of the following source:
The routers backplane TDM clock frequency (in any router equipped with a TDM backplane bus)
The master oscillator on the network module (in any router not equipped with a TDM backplane bus)
When the adaptive keyword is specified, the clocks provided by the network module are derived from the
same source as in the clock source internal case. However, the derived frequency is further adjusted up or
down on the basis of the measured average fill of the egress dejitter buffer of the connection. If the dejitter
buffer is perceived to be slowly filling, the frequency is adjusted slightly upward. If the dejitter buffer is
perceived to be slowly depleting, the frequency is adjusted slightly downward.
Cisco NM-CEM-4SER
When the loop keyword is specified, the clock provided by the NM-CEM-4SER is the same as the clock
provided to the NM-CEM-4SER from the attached CPE. The specification of clock source loop is only valid
when the clockmodesplit command is specified. The clockmode command is used only during configuration
of the NM-CEM-4SER.
Cisco NM-CEM-4TE1
In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(2)T, the adaptive clocking algorithm is enhanced to provide better adaptive clock
accuracy. Three new keywords are used to specify the preferred mode:
closed-loop --Specifies the closed loop mode. Taking advantage of the fact that a T1 or E1 link uses the
same clock in both directions, the adaptive clock algorithm enhancements are used to improve the
adaptive clock accuracy. The same clock must be used in both directions for the closed loop mode, and
both ends of the CEM must be running a Cisco IOS release that supports the enhanced adaptive clock
algorithm. Use the closed loop mode when clock accuracy is required, the master clock from the customer
premises equipment (CPE) is of good quality, and the clocks are the same in both directions of the T1
or E1 link.
Note Do not use the closed loop mode in applications where the clocks are different for the two directions of
the T1 or E1 link.
open-loop --Specifies the open loop mode. Some of the adaptive clock algorithm is used, but this mode
does not require the clocks to be the same in both directions. This mode is compatible with previous
Cisco IOS releases and is the default mode if no keyword is specified. Use the open loop mode when
the master clock from the CPE is of good quality, but the clocks are not the same in both directions of
the T1 or E1 link.
coarse --Specifies the coarse mode. The coarse mode uses the original adaptive clock algorithm and is
used when the stability of the master clock derived from the CPE is not guaranteed. This mode is
compatible with previous Cisco IOS releases.

series, and Cisco 10000 series routers. A T3 interface on a PA-T3 serial port adapter can clock its transmitted
data either from its internal clock or from a clock recovered from the lines receive data stream.
Clocking on a T1 Line
To use the clocking coming in from a T1 line, configure the clock source line primary command on the
controller that has the most reliable clocking. Configure the clock source line secondary command on the
controller that has the next best known clocking. With this configuration, the primary line clocking is backed
up to the secondary line if the primary clocking shuts down.

Usage Guidelines Cisco 7000, Cisco 7200, and Cisco 7500 Series
A G.703-E1 interface , E1-G.703/G.704 serial port adapter, or a PA-E3 serial port adapter can clock its
transmitted data from either its internal clock or from a clock recovered from the lines receive data stream.
Cisco AS5300 Access Servers
To use the clocking coming in from a T1 line, configure the clocksourcelineprimary command on the
controller that has the most reliable clocking. Configure the clocksourcelinesecondary command on the
controller that has the next best known clocking. With this configuration, the primary line clocking is backed
up to the secondary line if the primary clocking shuts down.
Examples
Examples The following example shows how to configure the G.703-E1 interface to clock its transmitted data from its
internal clock:
Examples The following example shows how to use an internal clock source:
Examples The following example shows how to use an internal clock source:
Syntax Description line The controller recovers the external clock from the
line and provides the recovered clock to the internal
(system) clock generator. The line value is the default
clock source.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in
a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines If multiple network modules are present in the router, then each J1 controller must be given a separate priority
by configuration of the network-clock-select command. The controller having the highest priority will drive
the internal clock.
Examples The following example configures the clock source for line:
Related Commands
Command Description
network-clock-select Sets the selection priority for a clock source.
Syntax Description line Specifies that the DS1 link uses the recovered clock.
The line value is the default clock source used when
the Multiflex Trunk (MFT) is installed.
internal Specifies that the DS1 link uses the internal clock.
The internal value is the default clock source used
when the Digital Voice Module (DVM) is installed.
loop-timed Specifies that the T1/E1 controller will take the clock
from the Rx (line) and use it for Tx. This setting
decouples the controller clock from the system-wide
clock set with the network-clock-select command.
The loop-timed clock enables the DVM to connect
to a PBX and to connect the MFT to a central office
when both the PBX and the central office function as
DCE clock sources. This situation assumes that the
PBX also takes the clocking from the central office,
thereby synchronizing the clocks on the DVM and
the MFT.
Command Default Line (when the MFT is installed) Internal (when the DVM is installed)
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.

MC3810.
Note You cannot configure the clock source to the line setting for both T1/E1 controllers at the same time.
Examples The following example configures the clock source for the MFT to internal, and the clock source for the DVM
line on a Cisco MC3810 multiservice access concentrator:
Router(config)# controller T1 0
Router(config-controller)# clock source internal
Router(config)# controller T1 1
Router(config-controller)# clock source line
Syntax Description internal Specifies that the clock source uses the internal clock
provided by the Route Switch Controller (RSC). This
is the default.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support

a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command sets clocking for individual T1/E1 links.
Make sure that you specify the clock source correctly for each link, even if you are planning to specify that
a certain link will provide clocking for all the links in an IMA group. Because links may be taken in and out
of service, requiring that the system select another link for common clocking, any link in an IMA group may
provide the common clock.
If the ATM interface is part of an IMA group, you can use the loop-timed keyword to specify that the clock
source is the same as the IMA group clock source.
Examples On a Cisco 2600 or Cisco 3600 series router, the following example specifies an internal clock source for the
link:

protocol field (0x0021), even though the pfc is negotiated between peers. If protocol rejects are displayed
when the debugpppnegotiation command is enabled, setting the ignore-pfc option may remedy the problem.
HDLC Encapsulations
For HDLC encapsulations, you can specify a Stacker compression algorithm by using the stac keyword. PPP
and LAPB encapsulations support both predictor and Stacker compression algorithms.
Public Data Network Connections
Compression requires that both ends of the serial link be configured to use compression. You should never
enable compression for connections to a public data network.
Cisco 7200 and Cisco 7500 Series
Using CSA hardware compression on Cisco 7200 series routers and Cisco 7500 series routers removes the
compression and decompression responsibilities from the VIP2 or the main processor installed in the router.
By using the compressstac command, the router determines the fastest compression method available on the
router.
On Cisco 7200 series routers and Cisco 7500 series routers, hardware compression on the compression service
adapter (CSA) is supported for PPP links. When using hardware compression on Cisco 7200 series routers
with multiple CSAs, you can optionally specify which CSA is used by the interface to perform compression.
If no CSA is specified, the router determines which CSA is used. On Cisco 7500 series routers, the router
uses the CSA on the same VIP2 as the interface.
System Performance
Caution When compression is performed in software installed in the routers main processor, it might affect system
performance significantly. We recommend that you disable compression if the CPU load exceeds 40
percent. To display the CPU load, use the showprocesscpu EXEC command.
If the majority of your traffic is already compressed files, we recommend that you not use compression. If
the files are already compressed, the additional processing time spent in attempting unsuccessfully to compress
them again will slow system performance.
The table below provides general guidelines for deciding which compression type to select.
Software compression makes heavy demands on the routers processor. The maximum compressed serial line
rate depends on the type of Cisco router that you are using and which compression algorithm you specify.
The table below shows a summary of the compressed serial line rates for software compression. The maximums
shown in the table below apply to the combined serial compressed load on the router. For example, a Cisco
4000 series router could handle four 64-kbps lines using Stacker compression or one 256-kbps line. These
maximums also assume that there is very little processor load on the router aside from compression. Lower
these numbers when the router is required to do other processor-intensive tasks.
Compression Cisco 1000 Cisco 3000 Cisco 4000 Cisco 4500 Cisco 4700 Cisco 7000
Method Series Series Series Series Series Family
Stacker 128 128 256 500 T1 256
(kbps)
Note The best performance data compression algorithms adjust their compression methodology as they identify
patterns in the data. To prevent data loss and support this adjustment process, the compression algorithm
is run over LAPB to ensure that everything is sent in order, with no missing data and no duplicate data.
Note For information on configuring Frame Relay compression, refer to the Configuring Frame Relay chapter
in the CiscoIOSWide-AreaNetworkingConfigurationGuide.
Examples The following example enables hardware compression and PPP encapsulation on serial interface 3/1/0.

12.2(31)SB This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(31)SB.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines All interfaces use a 16-bit CRC by default, but also support a 32-bit CRC. CRC is an error-checking technique
that uses a calculated numeric value to detect errors in transmitted data. The designators 16 and 32 indicate
the length (in bits) of the frame check sequence (FCS). A CRC of 32 bits provides more powerful error
detection, but adds overhead. Both the sender and receiver must use the same setting.
CRC-16, the most widely used CRC rate throughout the United States and Europe, is used extensively with
WANs. CRC-32 is specified by IEEE 802 and as an option by some point-to-point transmission standards. It
is often used on Switched Multimegabit Data Service (SMDS) networks and LANs.
Examples The following example enables the 32-bit CRC on serial interface 3/0:
crc bits 5
To enable generation of CRC5 (per ITU Recommendation G.704 and G.703) to improve data integrity, use

command.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command is available for the JT2 6.3-MHz serial port adapter (PA-2JT2) on the second-generation
Versatile Interface Processor (VIP2), in Cisco 7500 series routers, and in Cisco 7000 series routers with the
Cisco 7000 series Route Switch Processor (RSP7000) and the Cisco 7000 series Chassis Interface (RSP7000CI).
This command is useful for checking data integrity while operating in framed mode. CRC5 provides additional
protection for a frame alignment signal under noisy conditions. For data transmission at JT2 (6.312 Mbps),
the G.704 standard suggests 5 bits CRC. Refer to ITU Recommendation G.704 for a definition of CRC5.
You can also use the crc command to set the CRC size for the High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC)
controllers.
Examples The following example enables CRC5 generation on the PA-2JT2 port adapter and also sets the CRC size to
32 bits:

Usage Guidelines This command applies to the Cisco 7200 series, Cisco 7000 series, and Cisco 7500 series routers. This command
is supported on the Fast Serial Interface Processor (FSIP) and the E1-G.703/G.704 serial port adapter.
This command is useful for checking data integrity while operating in framed mode. CRC4 provides additional
protection for a frame alignment signal under noisy conditions. For data transmission at E1 (2.048 Mbps),
the G.704 standard suggests 4 bits CRC. Refer to CCITT Recommendation G.704 for a definition of CRC4.
You can also use the crc command to set the CRC size for the High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC)
controllers.
Examples The following example enables CRC4 generation on the E1-G.703/G.704 serial port adapter and also sets the
CRC size to 32 bits:
Related Commands
Command Description

crc-threshold
To define a severely errored second (SES) by specifying the number of cyclic redundancy check (CRC) errors
that occur in one second, use the crc-threshold command in controller configuration mode. To return to the
default value, use the no form of this command.
crc-threshold value
no crc-threshold
Syntax Description value Number of CRC errors in one second that results in
the second being declared a severely errored second
(SES). Range is from 0 to 3000. Default is 320.
Command Default A default SES is defined by a value of 320 CRC errors per second.
Usage Guidelines On a T1 port, this command applies only if extended super frame (ESF) framing is used because the super
frame (SF) (also known as D4) frame structure does not include any CRC protection.
This command does not apply to an E1 port.
Examples The following example shows how to set the CRC threshold at 512 CRC errors in one second.
ctunnel mode
To transport IPv4 and IPv6 packets over Connectionless Network Service (CLNS) tunnel (CTunnel), use the
ctunnelmode command in interface configuration mode. To return the ctunnel to the default cisco mode, use
the no form of this command.
Syntax Description gre (Optional) Sets the ctunnel mode to Generic Routing
Encapsulation (GRE) for transporting IPv6 packets
over the CLNS network.
12.2(25)S This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)S.
12.2(28)SB This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(28)SB.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2(33)SXH This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXH.
Usage Guidelines GRE tunneling of IPv4 and IPv6 packets through CLNS-only networks enables Cisco ctunnels to interoperate
with networking equipment from other vendors. This feature provides compliance with RFC 3147, Generic
Routing Encapsulation over CLNS Networks, which should allow interoperation between Cisco equipment
and that of other vendors. in which the same standard is implemented.
RFC 3147 specifies the use of GRE when tunneling packets. The implementation of this feature does not
include support for GRE header fields such as those used to specify checksums, keys, or sequencing. Any
packets received which specify the use of these features will be dropped.
The default ctunnel mode continues to use the standard Cisco encapsulation. Both ends of the tunnel must be
configured with the same mode for it to work. If you want to tunnel ipv6 packets you must use the new gre
mode.
Examples The following example configures a CTunnel from one router to another and shows the CTunnel destination
set to 49.0001.1111.1111.1111.00. The ctunnel mode is set to gre to transport IPv6 packets.

Command Description
clns routing Enables routing of CLNS packets.
cut-through
To configure the interfaces on the PA-12E/2FE port adapter to use cut-through switching technology between
interfaces within the same bridge group, use the cut-throughcommand in interface configuration mode. To
return each interface to store-and-forward switching, use the noform of this command.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Cut-through mode allows switched packets to be transmitted after 64 bytes are received. The transmission of
the packets can start before the end of the packet arrives. This reduces the time spent in the switch, but allows
packets to be transmitted with bad cyclical redundancy checks (CRCs), because the transmission is initiated
before the CRC is received or checked. Store-and-forward mode waits for the entire packet to be received
before that packet is forwarded, but will check the CRC before starting transmission.
The PA-12E/2FE port adapter offloads Layer 2 switching from the host CPU by using store-and-forward or
cut-through switching technology between interfaces within the same VLAN on the PA-12E/2FE port adapter.
The PA-12E/2FE port adapter supports up to four VLANs (bridge groups).
Examples The following example configures interface 3/0 for cut-through switching:
Router(config)#
interface fastethernet 3/0
Router(config-if)#
bridge-group 10
Router(config-if)#
cut-through
Router(config-if)#
no shutdown
Router(config-if)# exit
data-protection

configuration mode. To disable data protection, use the no form of this command.
data-protection
no data-protection
Router(config-cem)# data-protection
Related Commands
Command Description
cem Enters circuit emulation configuration mode.
data-strobe
To specify an input control lead to be monitored as an indicator of valid data, use the data-strobe command
in CEM configuration mode. To disable the monitoring of an input control lead, use the no form of this
command.
Syntax Description input-lead Specifies the input lead. The choice of leads depends
on whether the port is DCE or DTE.
Usage Guidelines Any input control signal on a serial data port may be configured as a data strobe to indicate to the
NM-CEM-4SER network module whether ingress data on the port should be encapsulated for transmission
or ignored. If the data-strobe command is specified with the on keyword, data packets are created and sent
when the input lead is asserted. If the data strobe is off (either intentionally or as a result of the failure of the
customer premises equipment [CPE]), no data packets are created, and this results in preservation of bandwidth
in the IP network.
This command applies only to serial ports.
Examples The following example demonstrates how to specify that packets are to be created and sent to the far end only
when the DTR input control lead is asserted.
Related Commands
Command Description
cem Enters circuit emulation configuration mode.
control-lead sampling rate Configures the sampling rate of input control leads.
dce-terminal-timing enable
To prevent phase shifting of the data with respect to the clock when running the line at high speeds and long
distances, use the dce-terminal-timingenable command in interface configuration mode. If serial clock
transmit external (SCTE) terminal timing is not available from the DTE, use the noform of this command;
the DCE will use its own clock instead of SCTE from the DTE.

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines On the Cisco 4000 router, you can specify the serial Network Interface Module timing signal configuration.
When the board is operating as a DCE and the DTE provides terminal timing (SCTE or TT), the
dce-terminal-timingenable command causes the DCE to use SCTE from the DTE.
Examples The following example shows how to prevent phase shifting of the data with respect to the clock:
debug l2protocol-tunnel

dial-tdm-clock
To configure the clock source and priority of the clock source used by the time-division multiplexing (TDM)
bus on the dial shelf of the Cisco AS5800, use the dial-tdm-clock command in global configuration mode.
To return the clock source and priority to the default values, use the no form of this command.
dial-tdm-clock priority number {external {e1| t1} [120ohm]| freerun| trunk-slot slot port port} [line {0|
1}]
no dial-tdm-clock priority number {external {e1| t1} [120ohm]| freerun| trunk-slot slot port port} [line
{0| 1}]
Syntax Description priority number Specifies the priority of the clock source. The range
is from 1 to 50. Priority 1 is the highest priority, and
50 is the lowest.
trunk-slot slot Specifies the priority of the trunk card to provide the
clock source. The slot number is from 0 to 5 (these
are the only slots capable of providing clock sources).
Command Default If no clock sources are specified, the software selects the first available good clock source on a trunk port.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set,
platform, and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines The TDM bus in the backplane on the dial shelf must be synchronized to the T1/E1 clocks on the trunk cards.
The DSC card on the dial shelf provides hardware logic to accept multiple clock sources as input and use one
of them as the primary source to generate a stable, PPL synchronized output clock. The input clock can be
any of the following sources:
Trunk port in slots 0 through 5 (up to 12 can be selected (two per slot)
An external T1 or E1 clock source fed directly through a connector on the DSC card
A free running clock from an oscillator in the clocking hardware on the DSC card
The clock commands are listed in the configuration file with the highest priority listed first.
If the current primary clock source is good, specifying another clock source of higher priority does not cause
the clock source to switch to the higher priority clock source. The new higher priority clock source is used as
a backup clock source. This prevents switching of the clock source as you enter multiple dial-tdm-clock
priority configuration commands in random order. Also, it is important not to disturb the existing clock source
as long as it is good. To force the new higher priority clock source to take over from a currently good primary
clock source, configure the new clock source and use the no dial-tdm-clock priority command to remove the
current primary clock source.
To display the current primary and backup clocks along with their priorities, use the
showdial-shelfclocksEXECcommand.
Examples In the following example, an external clock source is set at priority 1 and the trunk card in slot 4, port 1 is set
at priority 5:

Command Default The Ethertype field used by peer devices when implementing Q-in-Q VLAN tagging is 0x8100.
12.3(7)XI1 This command was implemented on the Cisco 10000 series routers.
12.2(31)SB2 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(31)SB2.
12.2(33)SRC This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRC.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.2 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 2.2.
Usage Guidelines Use the dot1qtunnelingethertype command if the peer switching devices are using an Ethertype field value
of 0x9100 or 0x9200. All Cisco switching devices use the default Ethertype field value of 0x88A8. The Cisco
10000 series router also supports the 0x9200 Ethertype field value.
Note On the Cisco 10000 series router, the Ethertype field for the outer VLAN ID can be changed, but the
Ethertype field for the inner VLAN ID cannot be changed.
This command is used with the IEEE 802.1Q-in-Q VLAN Tag Termination feature in which double VLAN
tagging is configured using the encapsulationdot1q command. 802.1Q double tagging allows a service
provider to use a single VLAN to support customers who have multiple VLANs.
Examples The following example shows how to configure an Ethertype field as 0x9100:
Router(config
)
# interface gigabitethernet 1/0/0
Router(config
-if)#

down-when-looped
To configure an interface to inform the system that it is down when loopback is detected, use the
down-when-loopedcommand in interface configuration mode.
down-when-looped
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command is valid for High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) or PPP encapsulation on serial and
High-Speed Serial Interface (HSSI) interfaces.
This command does not have a no form.
Backup Interfaces
When an interface has a backup interface configured, it is often desirable that the backup interface be enabled
when the primary interface is either down or in loopback. By default, the backup is enabled only if the primary
interface is down. By using the down-when-looped command, the backup interface will also be enabled if
the primary interface is in loopback.
Testing an Interface with the Loopback Command
If testing an interface with the loopback command, or by placing the DCE into loopback, the
down-when-looped command should not be configured; otherwise, packets will not be transmitted out the
interface that is being tested.
Examples The following example shows how to configure interface serial 0 for HDLC encapsulation. The interface is
then configured to let the system know that it is down when in loopback mode.

12.0(1)T The cas-group command was introduced for the Cisco 3600 series.
12.0(5)XE The command was renamedds0-group on the Cisco AS5300 and on the Cisco
2600 and Cisco 3600 series.
12.0(7)T The command was integrated into the Cisco IOS Release 12.0(7)T.
12.2(8)T The command was introduced as a J1 configuration command for the Cisco
2600 and Cisco 3600 series.
Usage Guidelines The ds0-group command replaces the existing cas-group command. Making the command generic allows
flexibility and scalability. It is not restricted to channel associated signaling (CAS) or channel bundling.
The ds0-group command automatically creates a logical voice port that is numbered as follows on Cisco
2600 and Cisco 3600 series routers: slot/port:ds0-group-no. Although only one voice port is created for each
group, applicable calls are routed to any channel in the group.

the transmission line is long. The dte-invert-txc command prevents phase shifting of the data with respect
to the clock.
On the Cisco 4000 series, you can specify the serial Network Processor Module timing signal configuration.
When the board is operating as a DTE, the dte-invert-txc command inverts the TXC clock signal it gets from
the DCE that the DTE uses to transmit data.
If the DCE accepts SCTE from the DTE, use nodte-invert-txc.

Cisco IOS XE Release 3.9S This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 3.9S.
15.2(02)SA This command was implemented on the Cisco ME 2600X Series Ethernet
Access Switches.
Usage Guidelines To use the autonegotiation capability (that is, to automatically detect speed and duplex modes), you must set
both the speed command and the duplex command to auto.
Cisco Cloud Services Router 1000V Series
Cisco Cloud Services Router 1000V Series does not support the duplex command.
Duplex Options and Interfaces
The table below lists the supported command options by interface type.
If the transmission speed on a 16-port RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet port is set to 1000, the duplex mode is set to
full. If the transmission speed is changed to 10 or 100, the duplex mode stays at half duplex. You must configure
the correct duplex mode when the transmission speed is changed to 10 or 100 from 1000.
Gigabit Ethernet is full duplex only. You cannot change the mode on Gigabit Ethernet ports.
When manually configuring the interface speed to either 10 or 100-Mbps, you should also configure the duplex
mode on the interface.
Caution Changing the interface speed and duplex mode configuration might shut down and reenable the interface
during reconfiguration.
4-Port 10/100 Fast Ethernet SPA and 2-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet SPA on the Cisco 7304
Router
The duplex command is applied to the SPA interfaces that use the RJ-45 media. Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
using fiber media support full-duplex mode only and use the negotiation command to enable and disable
autonegotiation.
To enable the autonegotiation capability on an RJ-45 interface, you must set either the speed command or
the duplex command to auto. The default configuration is that both commands are set to auto.
Note For the Cisco AS5300, the duplex {full | half | auto} command syntax replaces the duplex
commandshalf-duplex and full-duplex. Cisco 7600 series routers can automatically negotiate the
interface speed and the duplex mode only if one of the connected interfaces are configured to auto.
The table below describes the interface behavior for different combinations of the duplex and speed command
settings. The specified duplex command configured with the specified speed command produces the resulting
system action.
If you specify both duplex and speed settings other than auto on an RJ-45 interface, autonegotiation is disabled
for the interface.
Note If you need to force an interface port to operate with certain settings and, therefore, need to disable
autonegotiation, you must be sure that the remote link is configured with compatible link settings for
proper transmission including the support of flow control on the link.
Note Every interface on a 4-port 10/100 Fast Ethernet SPA supports transmission of pause frames to stop packet
flow when the Modular Services Card (MSC) is full. You cannot disable flow control for an interface on
the 4-port 10/100 Fast Ethernet SPA. Hence, the flow control support is not configurable, but it is advertised
during autonegotiation. If you disable autonegotiation, you must be sure that the remote device is configured
to support flow control because flow control is automatically enabled for all interfaces on the 4-port 10/100
Fast Ethernet SPA.
duplex half or duplex full speed auto Autonegotiates the speed. The
interface advertises the capability
for duplex mode for Fast Ethernet
interfaces at a speed of 10-Mbps
and 100-Mbps, and Gigabit
interfaces at 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps,
and 1000-Mbps.
For example, if the duplex full
command is configured with the
speed auto command, then the
interface advertises the following
capability:
10 Mbps and full duplex
100 Mbps and full duplex
1000 Mbps and full duplex
(Gigabit Ethernet interfaces
only)
Examples The following example shows how to configure a full-duplex operation on a Cisco AS5300 router:
The following example shows how to specify the advertisement of only half-duplex support and either 10-Mbps
or 100-Mbps capability during autonegotiation for the second interface (port 1) on the SPA located in the
bottom subslot (1) of the MSC that is installed in slot 2 of the Cisco 7304 router:
With this configuration, the interface advertises the following capabilities during autonegotiation:
10 Mbps and half duplex
100 Mbps and half duplex

When this command is used, serial interface 0 supports speeds up to E2 (8 MHz full duplex) and the other
three serial interfaces (1 to 3) are put in the shutdown state. Also, running this command displays the following
warning message:
Serial interface 0 is configured to support E2 rates and serial ports 1-3 are moved to
shutdown state
.
Examples The following example shows sample display output for the e2-clockrate EXEC command.
Router(config-if)#
e2-clockrate
Interface Serial 0 is configured to support clockrates up to E2 (8Mbps)
Interfaces serial 1-3 will not be operational

no early-token-release
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Early token release is a method whereby the Token Ring interfaces can release the token back onto the ring
immediately after transmitting, rather than waiting for the frame to return. This feature helps increase the total
bandwidth of the Token Ring.
The Token Ring Interface Processor (TRIP) on the Cisco 7500 series routers and the Token Ring adapters on
the Cisco 7200 series routers all support early token release.
Examples The following example enables the use of early token release on Token Ring interface 1:
efm-grp
The efm-grp command is used to perform the necessary link operations (add, delete, and shutdown) of a single
link after the creation of efm-bonding group. To perform the link operations in the efm-grp command, enter
the config-controller-dsl-group mode. Use the no form of the command to shut down the related command.
Usage Guidelines This command is used to add, delete, or shutdown a link in the efm-bond.
Router(config-controller-dsl-group)# efm-grp ?
add Add a link to the EFM Bonding group
delete Delete a link from the EFM Bonding group
shutdown Shutdown a link in the EFM Bonding group
Router(config-controller-dsl-group)# efm-grp add ?

eigrp interface
Note Effective with Cisco IOS Release 15.0(1)M, the eigrp interfacecommand is replaced by the
dampening-change command and the dampening-interval command. See the dampening-change and
dampening-intervalcommands for more information.
To set a threshold value to minimize hysteresis in a router-to-radio configuration, use the eigrp interface
command in interface configuration mode. To reset the hysteresis threshold to the default value, use the no
form of this command.
Command Default Default for change-based dampening is 50 percent of the computed metric.
Default for interval-based dampening is 30 seconds.
12.4(15)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T.
15.0(1)M This command was replaced. This command was replaced by the
dampening-changecommand and the dampening-interval command.
Usage Guidelines This command advertises routing changes for EIGRP traffic only.
The REPLY sent to any QUERY will always contain the latest metric information. Exceptions which will
result in immediate UPDATE being sent:
A down interface
A down route
Any change in metric which results in the router selecting a new next hop
Change-based Dampening
The default value for the change tolerance will be 50% of the computed metric. It can be configured in the
range from 0 to 100 percent. If the metric change of the interface is not greater (or less) than the current metric
plus or minus the specified amount, the change will not result in a routing change, and no update will be sent
to other adjacencies.
Interval-based Dampening
The default value for the update intervals is 30 seconds. It can be configured in the range from 0 to 64535
seconds. If this option is specified, changes in routes learned though this interface, or in the interface metrics,
will not be advertised to adjacencies until the specified interval is met. When the timer expires, any changes
detected in any routes learned through the interface, or the metric reported by the interfaces will be sent out.
Examples
Examples The following example sets the threshold to 50 percent tolerance routing updates involving VMI interfaces
and peers:
interface vmi1
ip address 10.2.2.1 255.255.255.0
ipv6 address 2001:0DB1:2::1/96
ipv6 enable
eigrp 1 interface dampening-change 50
physical-interface Ethernet0/0
Examples The following example sets the interval to 30 seconds at which updates occur for topology changes that affect
VMI interfaces and peers:
interface vmi1
ip address 10.2.2.1 255.255.255.0
ipv6 address 2001:0DB1:2::1/96
ipv6 enable

emulation-mode
To configure Configuration Circuit Emulation (CEM), use the emulation-mode command in unidirectional
mode.
Usage Guidelines You can use the emulation-mode command to configure the CEM in unidirectional mode. Once configured,
traffic will flow only in that direction through the CEM channel. The CEM status will show as active (rx-only)
or active (tx-only) depending on the configuration. To disable the command's effect, use the no form of this
command.
Examples The following example shows how the command configures the traffic in unidirectional mode:
Router(config-cem
)# emulation-mode unidirectional tx
The following example shows how the command configures the traffic in bidirectional mode:

encapsulation
To set the encapsulation method used by the interface, use the encapsulation command in interface
configuration mode. To remove the encapsulation, use the no form of this command.
encapsulation encapsulation-type
no encapsulation encapsulation-type
Command Default The default depends on the type of interface. For example, synchronous serial interfaces default to HDLC
and asynchronous interfaces default to SLIP.
11.1 The isl keyword was added to support the Interswitch Link (ISL) Cisco protocol
for interconnecting multiple switches and routers, and for defining virtual LAN
(VLAN) topologies.
11.3(4)T The tr-isltrbrf-vlan keyword was added to support TRISL, a Cisco proprietary
protocol for interconnecting multiple routers and switches and maintaining VLAN
information as traffic goes between switches.
12.0(1)T The dot1q keyword was added to support IEEE 8021q standard for encapsulation
of traffic on a specified subinterface in VLANs.
12.2(11)T This command was modified to include the ss7 keyword in support of integrated
signaling link terminal capabilities.
12.3(2)T The tr-isltrbrf-vlan keyword was removed because support for the TRISL
protocol is no longer available in Cisco IOS software.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in
a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5 This command was updated. It was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5.
To use SLIP or PPP, the router or access server must be configured with an IP routing protocol or with the
iphost-routing command. This configuration is done automatically if you are using old-style slipaddress
commands. However, you must configure it manually if you configure SLIP or PPP via the interfaceasync
command.
On lines configured for interactive use, encapsulation is selected by the user when they establish a connection
with the slip or ppp EXEC command.
IP Control Protocol (IPCP) is the part of PPP that brings up and configures IP links. After devices at both
ends of a connection communicate and bring up PPP, they bring up the control protocol for each network
protocol that they intend to run over the PPP link such as IP or IPX. If you have problems passing IP packets
and the showinterface command shows that line is up, usethenegotiations command to see if and where the
negotiations are failing. You might have different versions of software running, or different versions of PPP,
in which case you might need to upgrade your software or turn off PPP option negotiations. All IPCP options
as listed in RFC 1332, PPP Internet Protocol Control Protocol (IPCP) , are supported on asynchronous lines.
Only Option 2, TCP/IP header compression, is supported on synchronous interfaces.
PPP echo requests are used as keepalive packets to detect line failure. The nokeepalive command can be used
to disable echo requests. For more information about the nokeepalive command, refer to the chapter IP
Services Commands in the CiscoIOSIPCommandReference,Volume1of4:AddressingandServicesand to
thechapterConfiguring IP Services in the CiscoIOSIPConfigurationGuide.
To use SLIP or PPP, the Cisco IOS software must be configured with an IP routing protocol or with the
iphost-routing command. This configuration is done automatically if you are using old-style slipaddress
commands. However, you must configure it manually if you configure SLIP or PPP via the interfaceasync
command.
Note Disable software flow control on SLIP and PPP lines before using the encapsulation command.
SS7
The SS7 encapsulation command is new with the Integrated SLT feature and is available only for interface
serial objects created by the channel-group command. For network access server (NAS) platforms, the
encapsulation for channel group serial interface objects defaults to HDLC. You must explicitly set the
encapsulation type to SS7 to override this default.
When encapsulation is set to SS7, the encapsulation command for that object is no longer available. A serial
SS7 link is deleted only when its associated dial feature card (DFC) card is removed. As with existing Cisco
26xx-based SLTs, you do not need to specify whether the SS7 link is to be used as an A-link or an F-link.
By itself this command does not select the correct encapsulation type. Therefore, once created, you must set
the encapsulation type to the new SS7 value, as well as assign a session channel ID to the link at the serial
interface command level. The configuration on a digital SS7 link can be saved (no shutdown) only when its
encapsulation is successfully set to SS7 and it has been assigned a channel identifier.
VLANs
Do not configure encapsulation on the native VLAN of an IEEE 802.1q trunk without the native keyword.
(Always use the native keyword when the vlan-id is the ID of the IEEE 802.1q native VLAN.)
For detailed information on use of this command with VLANs, refer to the Cisco IOS Switching Services
Configuration Guide and the Cisco IOS Switching Services Command Reference .
Examples The following example shows how to reset HDLC serial encapsulation on serial interface 1:
Related Commands
Command Description
channel-group Assigns a channel group and selects the DSO time
slots desired for SS7 links.

Command Description
slip Starts a serial connection to a remote host using SLIP.
end
Usage Guidelines The end command is identical to the exit command in satellite initial configuration mode.
When you enter the exit or end command to exit satellite initial configuration mode, the system automatically
saves any changed parameters to the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module nonvolatile memory and resets
the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module.
Examples The following example shows what appears when you enter the end or exitcommand after changing one or
more initial configuration parameters:
Router(sat-init-config)# end

12.2(14)SX This command was modified. Support was added for the Supervisor Engine
720.
12.2(17b)SXA This command was modified. The packet-buffer-error keyword was added.
12.2(17d)SXB This command was modified. Support for this command on the Supervisor
Engine 2 was extended to Release 12.2(17d)SXB.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines
Note Entering the no errdisable detect cause packet-buffer-error command allows you to detect the fault
that triggers a power cycle of the affected module.
A cause (bpduguard, dtp-flap, link-flap, pagp-flap, root-guard, udld) is defined as the reason why the
error-disable state occurred. When a cause is detected on an interface, the interface is placed in an error-disable
state (an operational state that is similiar to the link-down state).
You must enter the shutdown and then the no shutdown commands to recover an interface manually from
the error-disable state.
Examples The following example shows how to enable error-disable detection for the Layer 2 protocol-tunnel guard
error-disable cause:
Router(config)#
errdisable detect cause l2ptguard
Related Commands
Command Description
show errdisable detect Displays the error-disable detection status.
errdisable recovery
To configure recovery mechanism variables, use the errdisable recovery command in global configuration
mode. To return to the default state, use the no form of this command.
12.2(14)SX This command was modified. This command was implemented on the
Supervisor Engine 720.
12.2(17d)SXB This command was modified. This command was implemented on the
Supervisor Engine 2.
12.2(18)SXD This command was modified. The arp-inspection keyword was added.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines A cause (bpduguard, channel-misconfig, dhcp-rate-limit, dtp-flap, l2ptguard, link-flap, pagp-flap,
psecure-violation, security-violation, rootguard, udld, or unicast-flood) is defined as the reason why the
error-disable state occurred. When a cause is detected on an interface, the interface is placed in an error-disable
state (an operational state that is similar to the link-down state). If you do not enable error-disable recovery
for the cause, the interface stays in the error-disable state until a shutdown and no shutdown occur. If you
enable recovery for a cause, the interface is brought out of the error-disable state and allowed to retry operation
once all the causes have timed out.
You must enter the shutdown command and then the no shutdown command to manually recover an interface
from the error-disable state.
Note A separate line is required each time you want to enter the errdisable recovery cause command to add
a new reason for recovery; each new reason does not get appended to the original single line. This means
you must enter each new reason separately.
Examples This example shows how to enable the recovery timer for the BPDU-guard error-disable cause:
Router(config)#
errdisable recovery cause bpduguard
This example shows how to set the recovery timer to 300 seconds:
Router(config)#
errdisable recovery interval 300
Related Commands
Command Description
show errdisable recovery Displays the information about the error-disable
recovery timer.
error throttling
To stop receiving error data packets on multiple channel groups configured on all interfaces on the T1 controller
of a channelized T3 port adapter or on the E1 controller of a channelized E3 port adapter, use the
errorthrottling command in controller configuration mode. To continue receiving error data packets on all
channels on the T1 or E1 controller, use the no form of this command.
error throttling
no error throttling
12.2(33)SRD5 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRD5.
Usage Guidelines Use the showcontrollerst3 command or showcontrollerse3 command to display whether the current router
configuration has error throttling enabled or disabled.
The errorthrottling command disables the T1 or E1 level clock in order to stop receiving error data packets
on a T1 or E1 controller.
When a T1 or a E1 has multiple channel groups configured over it, error throttling affects all the channels on
a T1 or a E1. If any single interface receives a burst of errors, over a short duration, such as 400 errors in 100
milliseconds (ms), the T1 or E1 clock is turned off for a period of 100 ms. When there is a high rate of errors,
the error rate is likely to continue for a long duration of time. Using error throttling to stop receiving the error
data packets reduces wasteful processing and discarding of error packets.
The noerrorthrottling command allows all the error data packets to be processed, dropped, and accounted
for on a T1 or a E1 controller. When the error rate is high, the CPU can become overloaded.
When the noerrorthrottling command is used to configure a T3 or a E3 port, the configuration applies to all
of the 28 associated T1 or E1 channels.
Examples The following example enables error throttling by disabling the T1 clock in order to stop receiving error data
packets on a T1 controller:

Usage Guidelines This command is supported on Cisco 7600 series routers that are configured with a Supervisor Engine 2 only.
This command is not supported on Cisco 7600 series routers that are configured with a Supervisor Engine 32
You cannot use the delimiting character in the banner message. The delimiter is a character of your choice--a
pound sign (#), for example.
You can replace tokens with the corresponding configuration argument.
Follow this command with one or more blank spaces and a delimiting character of your choice. Then enter
one or more lines of text, terminating the message with the second occurrence of the delimiting character.
This MOTD banner is useful for displaying messages that affect all users (such as impending system
shutdowns).
When you connect to the router, the MOTD banner appears before the login prompt. After you successfully
log in to the router, the EXEC banner or incoming banner is displayed, depending on the type of connection.
For a reverse Telnet login, the incoming banner is displayed. For all other connections, the router displays
the EXEC banner.
To customize the banner, use tokens in the form $(token) in the message text. Tokens display current Cisco
IOS configuration arguments, such as the routers hostname and IP address.
The table below describes the command tokens.

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2(33)SXH This command was modified. This command was introduced on the
Supervisor Engine 720-10GE.
Usage Guidelines This command is not supported on Catalyst 6500 or Cisco 7600 series routers that are configured with a
Supervisor Engine 32.
Ethernet ports are not disabled when this command is entered on a Supervisor Engine 720-10GE. This command
is also supported with Supervisor Engine 720 starting with Release 12.2(33)SXI2. However, prior to Release
12.2(33)SXI2, if all the installed switching modules have Distributed Forwarding Cards (DFCs), enter the
fabricswitching-modeallowdcef-only command to disable the Ethernet ports on both supervisor engines.
Entering this command ensures that all modules are operating in dCEF-only mode and simplifies switchover
to the redundant supervisor engine.
With a Supervisor Engine 2 and Release 12.2(18)SXD1 and later releases, if all the installed switching modules
have DFCs, enter the fabricswitching-modeallowdcef-only command to disable the Ethernet ports on the
redundant supervisor engine. Entering this command ensures that all modules are operating in dCEF-only
mode.
Bus mode--Supervisor engines use this mode for traffic between nonfabric-enabled modules and for traffic
between a nonfabric-enabled module and a fabric-enabled module. In this mode, all traffic passes between
the local bus and the supervisor engine bus.
dCEF-only--Supervisor engines, both active and redundant, operate as nonfabric-capable modules with their
uplink ports relying on the Policy Feature Card (PFC) on the active supervisor engine for all forwarding
decisions. For the Supervisor 720-10G, the uplink ports on both the active and standby routers will remain
active. If all other modules are operating in dCEF-only mode, module Online Insertion and Removal (OIR)
is nondisruptive.
Note The system message PSTBY-2-CHUNKPARTIAL: Attempted to destroy partially full chunk, chunk
0xB263638, chunk name: MET FREE POOL is displayed on the Supervisor Engine if both the
fabricswitching-modeallowdcef-only and ipv6mfibhardware-switchinguplink commands are configured.
The router will ignore the command configured last.
Truncated mode--Supervisor engines use this mode for traffic between fabric-enabled modules when there
are both fabric-enabled and nonfabric-enabled modules installed. In this mode, line cards send a truncated
version of the traffic (the first 64 bytes of the frame) over the Catalyst bus.
Compact mode--Supervisor engines use this mode for all traffic when only fabric-enabled modules are installed.
In this mode, a compact version of the Desktop Bus (DBus) header is forwarded over the Catalyst bus, which
provides the best possible centralized forwarding performance.
A fabric-enabled module has an additional connection directly to the switch fabric. Fabric-enabled modules
forward packets in compressed mode, where only the header is sent to the Supervisor Engine and the full
packet is forwarded directly from one line card to another.
To prevent use of nonfabric-enabled modules or to prevent fabric-enabled modules from using bus mode,
enter the nofabricswitching-modeallowbus-mode command.
The fabricswitching-modeallow c ommand affects Supervisor engines that are configured with a minimum
of two fabric-enabled modules.
You can enter the fabricswitching-modeallowtruncated command to unconditionally allow truncated mode.
You can enter the nofabricswitching-modeallowtruncated command to allow truncated mode if the threshold
is met.
You can enter the nofabricswitching-modeallowbus-modecommand to prevent any module from running
in bus mode.
To return to the default truncated-mode threshold, enter the nofabricswitching-modeallowtruncatedthreshold
command.
The valid value for modis the threshold value.

measures the core temperature.
Command Default If the command is not enabled, the default values are set.
12.2(31)SB2 This command was introduced on the PRE3 for the Cisco 10000 series
router.
15.0(1)M This command was integrated into a release earlier than Cisco IOS Release
15.0(1)M.
Usage Guidelines You can configure explicit threshold temperatures to override the defaults for major, minor, and critical alarms.
Temperature thresholds for each alarm type and location are automatically set based on determined values
that vary depending on the number and type of boards inserted in the chassis. In addition to the automatically
set thresholds, you can set thresholds for minor and major temperature alarms. You can also disable the minor
and major temperature alarms. You cannot, however, change the threshold for or disable critical alarms.
Cisco 10000 Series Router
On the PRE2, use the facility-alarmcore-temperature command. On the PRE3, use the
facility-alarmoutlet-temperature command.
The default value for a threshold temperature depends on the performance routing engine (PRE) installed in
the router as the following describes:
Major alarm
PRE2--The default value is 53.
PRE3--The default value is 58.
Minor alarm
PRE2--The default value is 45.
PRE3--The default value is 50.
Critical alarm
PRE2--The default value is 85.
PRE3--The default value is 85.
Examples The following example sets a threshold temperature of 53 for major alarms on the PRE2:

Related Commands
Command Description
fddi tb-min Sets the TB-Min timer in the PCM.
fddi cmt-signal-bits
To control the information transmitted during the connection management (CMT) signaling phase, use the
fddicmt-signal-bitscommand in interface configuration mode.
Command Default
phy-a is set to 0x008 (hexadecimal) or 00 0000 1000 (binary). Bits 1 and 2 are set to 00 to select Physical
A. Bit 3 is set to 1 to indicate accept any connection.
phy-b is set to 0x20c (hexadecimal) or 10 0000 1100 (binary). Bits 1 and 2 are set to 10 to select Physical
B. Bit 3 is set to 1 to indicate accept any connection. Bit 9 is set to 1 to select MAC on output. The
normal data flow on FDDI is input on Physical A and output on Physical B.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines If neither the phy-a nor phy-b keyword is specified, the signal bits apply to both physical connections.
Caution Use of the fddicmt-signal-bits configuration command is not recommended under normal operations.
This command is used when debugging specific CMT implementation issues.
1 0 Physical B
0 1 Physical S
1 1 Physical M
Examples The following example sets the CMT signaling phase to signal bits 0x208 on both physical connections:
fddi duplicate-address-check
To enable the duplicate address detection capability on the FDDI interface, use the fddiduplicate-address-check
command in interface configuration mode. To disable this function, use the no form of this command.
fddi duplicate-address-check
no fddi duplicate-address-check
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines If you use this command, the Cisco IOS software will detect a duplicate address if multiple stations are sharing
the same MAC address. If the software finds a duplicate address, it will shut down the interface.
Examples The following example enables duplicate address checking on the FDDI interface:
fddi encapsulate
To specify encapsulating bridge mode on the CSC-C2/FCIT interface card, use the fddiencapsulate command
in interface configuration mode. To turn off encapsulation bridging and return the FCIT interface to its
translational, nonencapsulating mode, use the noform of this command.
fddi encapsulate
no fddi encapsulate
Command Default By default, the FDDI interface uses the SNAP encapsulation format defined in RFC 1042, Standard for the
Transmission of IP Datagrams Over IEEE 802 Networks . It is not necessary to define an encapsulation method
for this interface when using the CSC-FCI interface card.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines The nofddiencapsulate command applies only to CSC-C2/FCIT interfaces, because the CSC-FCI interfaces
are always in encapsulating bridge mode. The CSC-C2/FCIT interface card fully supports transparent and
translational bridging for the following configurations:
FDDI to FDDI
FDDI to Ethernet
FDDI to Token Ring
The fddiencapsulate command puts the CSC-C2/FCIT interface into encapsulation mode when doing bridging.
In transparent mode, the FCIT interface interoperates with earlier versions of the CSC-FCI encapsulating
interfaces when performing bridging functions on the same ring.
Caution Bridging between dissimilar media presents several problems that can prevent communications from
occurring. These problems include bit-order translation (or usage of MAC addresses as data), maximum
transfer unit (MTU) differences, frame status differences, and multicast address usage. Some or all of
these problems might be present in a multimedia bridged LAN and might prevent communication from
taking place. These problems are most prevalent when bridging between Token Rings and Ethernets or
between Token Rings and FDDI nets. This is because of the different way Token Ring is implemented
by the end nodes.
The following protocols have problems when bridged between Token Ring and other media: Novell IPX,
DECnet Phase IV, AppleTalk, VINES, XNS, and IP. Furthermore, the following protocols may have problems
when bridged between FDDI and other media: Novell IPX and XNS. We recommend that these protocols be
routed whenever possible.
Examples The following example sets FDDI interface 1 on the CSC-C2/FCIT interface card to encapsulating bridge
mode:
fddi frames-per-token
To specify the maximum number of frames that the FDDI interface transmits per token capture, use the
fddiframes-per-token command in interface configuration mode. To revert to the default value, use the no
form of this command.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines Changing the value will increase or decrease the maximum number of frames that the FDDI interface can
transmit when it receives a token. Increasing the value does not necessarily mean more frames will be
transmitted on each token capture. This is heavily dependent on the traffic load of the specific interface.
When the interface captures a token, it transmits all of the frames that are queued in the interfaces transmit
ring, up to a maximum value specified by thefddiframes-per-token command.
If there are no frames ready for transmission, the token is passed on, and no frames are transmitted. If there
are less than the fddiframes-per-tokenvaluein the transmit ring, all frames in the transmit ring are transmitted
before the token is passed on. If there are more than the fddiframes-per-tokenvalue in the transmit ring, the
specified value is transmitted before the token is passed on. The remaining frames in the transmit ring remain
queued until the token is captured again.
Examples The following example shows how to configure the FDDI interface to transmit four frames per token capture:
fddi smt-frames
To enable the Station Management (SMT) frame processing capability on the FDDI, use the fddismt-frames
command in interface configuration mode. To disable this function and prevent the Cisco IOS software from
generating or responding to SMT frames, use the no form of this command.
fddi smt-frames
no fddi smt-frames
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines Use the no form of this command to turn off SMT frame processing for diagnosing purposes. Use the
fddismt-frames command to reenable the feature.
fddi tb-min
To set the TB-Min timer in the physical connection management (PCM), use the fdditb-min command in
interface configuration mode. To revert to the default value, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description milliseconds Number, in milliseconds, that sets the TB-Min timer
value. The range is from 0 to 65535. The default is
100.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines This command applies to the processor connection management (CMT) only. Use this command when you
run into PCM interoperability problems.
Note You need extensive knowledge of the PCM state machine to tune this timer.
Examples The following example shows how to set the TB-Min timer to 200 ms:
Related Commands
Command Description
fddi c-min Sets the C-Min timer on the PCM.
Command Description

advancing to the next physical connection management [PCM] state, as defined by the X3T9.5 specification),
use the fdditl-min-time command in interface configuration mode.
Syntax Description microseconds Number, in microseconds, that specifies the time used
during the connection management (CMT) phase to
ensure that signals are maintained for at least the value
of TL-Min so that the remote station can acquire the
signal. The range is from 0 to 4294967295. The
default is 30.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.

use the no form of this command.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines The FDDI standard restricts the allowed time to be greater than 4000 microseconds and less than 165,000
microseconds. As defined in the X3T9.5 specification, the value remaining in the TRT is loaded into the token
holding timer (THT). Combining the values of these two timers provides the means to determine the amount
of bandwidth available for subsequent transmissions.
Examples The following example sets the rotation time to 24,000 microseconds:
fddi t-out
To set the timeout timer in the physical connection management (PCM), use the fddit-out command in

Release Modification
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command is available only for T1 links. This command sets the standard to be followed for FDL messaging
through a 4-kbps out-of-band channel that a service provider uses to check for errors on the facility.
You must use the same FDL exchange standard as your service provider. If the setting is not correct, the link
might not come up. You can configure a different standard on each T1 interface.
Note When using a multiport T1 ATM IMA network module on a Cisco 2600 series or Cisco 3600 series router,
ESF framing and binary eight zero substitution (B8ZS) line encoding are supported. When using a multiport
E1 ATM IMA network module on a Cisco 2600 series or Cisco 3600 series router, CRC4 multiframe
framing and HDB3 line encoding are supported. These are the parameters specified by the ATM Forum,
and they cannot be changed.

flowcontrol
To configure a port to send or receive pause frames, use the flowcontrol command in interface configuration
mode. To return to the default settings, use the no form of this command.
Release Modification
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2(33)SCB This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCB.
Usage Guidelines The send and desired keywords are supported on Gigabit Ethernet ports only.
Pause frames are special packets that signal a source to stop sending frames for a specific period of time
because the buffers are full.
Gigabit Ethernet ports on the Catalyst 6500 series switches and on the Cisco 7600 series routers use flow
control to inhibit the transmission of packets to the port for a period of time; other Ethernet ports use flow
control to respond to flow-control requests.
If a Gigabit Ethernet port receive buffer becomes full, the port transmits a pause packet that tells remote
ports to delay sending more packets for a specified period of time. All Ethernet ports (1000 Mbps, 100 Mbps,
and 10 Mbps) can receive and act upon pause packets from other devices.
You can configure non-Gigabit Ethernet ports to ignore received pause frames (disable) or to react to them
(enable).
When used with the receivekeyword, the on and desired keywords have the same result.
All the Gigabit Ethernet ports on the Catalyst 6500 series switches and the Cisco 7600 series routers can
receive and process pause frames from remote devices.
To obtain predictable results, follow these guidelines:
Use sendon only when remote ports are set to receiveon or receivedesired.
Use sendoff only when remote ports are set to receiveoff or receivedesired.
Use receiveon only when remote ports are set to sendon or senddesired.
Use sendoff only when remote ports are set to receiveoff or receivedesired.
Examples These examples show how to configure the local port to not support any level of flow control by the remote
port:

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in
a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines If you do not specify the framing command, the default, g751, is used by the E3 controller to automatically
determine the framing type received from the far-end equipment.
Configure framing as G.751 when the E3 connection terminates remotely on a Digital Link or Kentrox data
service unit (DSU), or when needing a subrate on an E3 connection between two T3 or E3 network modules.
Note The local interface configuration must match the remote interface, or DSU, configuration.
When G.751 framing is used, DSU bandwidth can be used to select a payload subrate from 34,010 kbps down
to 22 kbps.
When framing bypass is used, DSU bandwidth of 34,010 kbps must be configured.
When G.751 framing is used, configuring the scramble command can prevent some payload data from being
mistakenly interpreted as G.751 framing bits by switches placed between the DSUs. By default, the no scramble
command is configured.
When framing bypass is used, the no scramble command must be configured.
When G.751 framing is used, bit 11 of the G.751 frame is reserved for national use and is set to 1 by default.
Configure national bit 1 only when required for interoperability with your telephone company.
Examples The following example shows the framing for the E3 controller set to bypass:

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines The default framing is described in the ITU-T Recommendation G.751.
Note The International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) carries
out the functions of the former Consultative Committee for International Telegraph and Telephone (CCITT).
When the framing mode is bypass, the T3 frame data is not included in the T3 frame, just the data.
When the framing mode is bypass, the E3 frame data is not included in the E3 frame, just the data.
If you use the bypass keyword, scrambling must be set to the default (disabled), the DSU mode must be set
to the default (0), and the DSU bandwidth must be set to the default (44736).
The g832 keyword is not supported on Cisco 7304 routers with the 2-Port and 4-Port Clear Channel T3/E3
SPA.
Examples The following example sets the framing mode to bypass on interface 1/0/0:

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command applies only to low-speed serial DCE interfaces in half-duplex mode. Configure a serial
interface for half-duplex mode by using the half-duplex command. Refer to the CiscoProductCatalog for
specific model numbers of networking devices which support serial interfaces.
Controlled-carrier operation means that the DCE interface has DCD deasserted in the quiescent state. When
the interface has something to transmit, it asserts DCD, waits a user-configured amount of time, then starts
the transmission. When the interface has finished transmitting, it waits a user-configured amount of time and
then deasserts DCD.
Examples The following examples place the interface in controlled-carrier mode and then back into constant-carrier
operation.
This example shows changing to controlled-carrier mode from the default of constant-carrier operation:

to the default parameter values, use the no form of this command.
half-duplex timer {cts-delay value| cts-drop-timeout value| dcd-drop-delay value| dcd-txstart-delay value|
rts-drop-delay value| rts-timeout value| transmit-delay value}
no half-duplex timer {cts-delay value| cts-drop-timeout value| dcd-drop-delay value| dcd-txstart-delay
value| rts-drop-delay value| rts-timeout value| transmit-delay value}
Syntax Description cts-delay value Specifies the delay introduced by the DCE interface
from the time it detects the Request to Send (RTS) to
the time it asserts Clear to Send (CTS) in response.
The range is dependent on the serial interface
hardware. The default cts-delay value is 0 ms.
Command Default The default cts-delay value is 0 ms. The default cts-drop-timeout value is 250 ms. The default dcd-drop-delay
value is 100 ms. The default dcd-txstart-delay value is 100 ms. The default rts-drop-delay value is 3 ms.
The default rts-timeout value is 3 ms. The defaulttransmit-delay value is 0 ms.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,

The range of values for the cts-delay and rts-timeout keywords are dependent on the serial interface hardware.
Examples The following example set the cts-delay timer to 10 ms and the transmit-delay timer to 50 ms:
Related Commands
Command Description
half-duplex controlled-carrier Places a low-speed serial interface in
controlled-carrier mode, instead of constant-carrier

history (interface)
To enable an interface to maintain utilization history, use the history command in interface configuration
mode. To disable an interface, use the no form of this command.
Usage Guidelines Once interface history is configured, the interface history histograms can be displayed using the show interface
history command.
Some of the interface counters are interface-type-specific and cannot be specified unless they apply to the
specific interface type being configured. Once interface history is configured, counters cannot be added or
removed without first removing the interface history configuration.
Significant processor memory is allocated to maintain the history information. For example, if two counters
are monitored, then approximately 4KB are used for the rate and counter history. If 20 counters are monitored,
then approximately 19KB are used.
The table below lists the interface counter options for the history (interface) command.
Examples The following example shows how to configure the interface history command to maintain interface utilization
history in bits per second (bps) and also the input-drop history:
Related Commands
Command Description
show interface history Displays information on the interface utilization.
hold-queue
To limit the length of the IP output queue on an interface, use the hold-queue command in interface
configuration mode. To restore the default values, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description length Integer that specifies the maximum number of packets
in the queue. The range of valid values is from 0 to
65535.
Command Default Input hold-queue limit is 75 packets. Output hold-queue limit is 40 packets. Asynchronous interfaces default
is 10 packets.
12.2(14)SX Support for this command was introduced on the Supervisor Engine 720.
12.2(17d)SXB Support for this command on the Supervisor Engine 2 was extended to
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(17d)SXB.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2(33)SCB This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCB.
15.1(2)T This command was modified. The length argument was added to the no
form of the command.
Caution Increasing the hold queue can have detrimental effects on network routing and response times. For protocols
that use seq/ack packets to determine round-trip times, do not increase the output queue. Dropping packets
instead informs hosts to slow down transmissions to match available bandwidth. This is generally better
than having duplicate copies of the same packet within the network (which can happen with large hold
queues).
Note When you use the no form of the hold-queue command, the length value (maximum number of packets
in the queue) need not necessarily be the same as the configured value.
Examples The following example shows how to set a small input queue on a slow serial line:
Examples The following example shows how to modify the input hold queue on a Gigabit Ethernet SPA:
Router(config)#interface GigabitEthernet3/0/0
Router(config-if)#hold-queue 30 in

hssi external-loop-request
To allow the router to support a CSU/DSU that uses the loopback circuit (LC) signal to request a loopback
from the router, use the hssiexternal-loop-request command in interface configuration mode. To disable this
function, use the no form of this command.
hssi external-loop-request
no hssi external-loop-request
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines The HSA applique on the High-Speed Serial Interface (HSSI) contains an LED that indicates the loopback
circuit A (LA), loopback circuit B (LB), and LC signals that are transiting through the devices. The CSU/DSU
uses the LC signal to request a loopback from the router. The CSU/DSU may want to do this so that its own
network management diagnostics can independently check the integrity of the connection between the CSU/DSU
and the router.
Use this command to enable a two-way, internal, and external loopback request on the HSSI from the CSU/DSU.
Caution If your CSU/DSU does not support this function, it should not be enabled on the router. Not enabling this
function prevents spurious line noise from accidentally tripping the external loopback request line, which
would interrupt the normal data flow.
Examples The following example enables a CSU/DSU to use the LC signal to request a loopback from the router:
hssi internal-clock
To convert the High-Speed Serial Interface (HSSI) into a clock master, use the hssiinternal-clock command
in interface configuration mode. To disable the clock master mode, use the no form of this command.
hssi internal-clock
no hssi internal-clock
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Use this command in conjunction with the HSSI null-modem cable to connect two Cisco routers together with
HSSI. You must configure this command at both ends of the link, not just one.
Note HSSI network module provides full-duplex connectivity at SONET OC-1/STS-1 (51.840 Mhz), T3 (44.736
MHZ), and E3 (34.368 MHz) rates in conformance with the EIA/TIA-612 and EIA/TIA-613 specifications.
The actual rate of the interface depends on the external data service unit (DSU) and the type of service to
which it is connected.
Examples The following example shows how to convert the HSSI interface into a clock master:
hub

Release 12.2(17d)SXB.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines Before you install a high-capacity fan tray, enter the hw-modulefan-trayversion2 command to check for
configuration problems, such as power-supply compatbility and power sufficiency. If there are no problems,
a message is displayed to change the fan tray from version 1 to version 2. At this point, you can remove the
old fan tray and quickly insert the new high-capacity fan tray.
The hw-modulefan-trayversion2 command aplies to Cisco 7600 series routers configured with a Supervisor
Engine 2. This command is not required in systems configured with a Supervisor Engine 720 or a Supervisor
Engine 32.
This command is supported on the following chassis:
WS-C6506
WS-C6509
WS-C6509-NEB/OSR7609
Command confirmation does not change the fan power consumption or cooling capacity. It updates the
backplane IDPROM. The new values take effect the next time that you insert a fan.
When you execute the command, the software checks the configurations and prompts for confirmation. Any
illegal configurations (such as power-supply incompatibility) result in a warning being displayed and a
command failure.

Command Default In Cisco IOS Release 12.0(24)S1, the recovery mechanism for a QA error condition is disabled; in all other
releases, it is enabled.
12.0(24)S1 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0(24)S1.
12.2(15)T5 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)T5.
12.2(18)S This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(18)S.
12.0(26)S This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0(26)S.
12.3(6) This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.3(6).
Usage Guidelines QA errors are sometimes seen in heavy traffic situations and may indicate a hardware failure or a software
bug. In the case of a hardware failure, a Versatile Interface Processor (VIP) or a Route Switch Processor (RSP)
must be replaced. It is possible, however, to recover from a QA error and not see another error for months.
When the same buffer header is present in two different queues, the QA ASIC goes into an error condition
and triggers a QA error interrupt. The QA error interrupt causes the RSP to dump the QA diagnostics and
perform a cbus complex during which all the line cards are reloaded. Although the duplicate buffer header
condition does not always indicate a hardware failure, the downtime of up to 300 seconds creates a real problem
in the network.
The hw-modulemain-cpuqaerror-recovery command has been created to enable a recovery mechanism for
a QA error by allowing the router to remove the duplicate buffer header from the queue that shows the problem
and requeue the buffer header. By using the QA error recovery, the downtime is reduced to less than one
second under lab conditions. Three QA errors caused by buffer headers are permitted before the router performs
a cbus complex and reloads all the line cards.
After three QA errors caused by duplicate queued buffer headers occur, the cbus complex is initiated and the
line cards reload. Other QA errors, such as a null buffer header on any queue, can occur. Recovery is not
possible in these cases, and the QA error triggers a cbus complex and subsequent line-card reloads. The QA
error condition is specific to the Cisco 7500 series routers.
Examples The following example shows how to enable the QA error recovery mechanism when a Cisco IOS Release
12.0(24)S1 image is used on a Cisco 7500 series router. In all other supported releases, the QA error recovery
mechanism is enabled by default.

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines If you have redundant power supplies and you power cycle one of the power supplies, only that power supply
is power cycled. If you power cycle both power supplies, the system goes down and comes back up in 10
seconds.
If you only have one power supply and you power cycle that power supply, the system goes down and comes
back up in 10 seconds.
This command works only on routers with an 8700 watt power supply.
Syntax Description HT-Reset threshold-value Specifies the threshold value for HTDP reset. The
valid value ranges from 4 to 6. By default, the
threshold value is set to 3.

Usage Guidelines Before using this command, you must use the hw-moduleslotimageglobal configuration command to specify
a high availability Cisco IOS image to run on the standby RSP. After the high availability image is loaded in
the active RSP, use the hw-modulesec-cpureset command to reset and reload the standby RSP with the
specified Cisco IOS image and to execute the image. To load the standby RSP with the default micro-IOS
software contained in the active RSP image instead of a high availability Cisco IOS image, use the no form
of the hw-moduleslotimage command followed by the hw-modulesec-cpuresetcommand.
Examples The following example shows a Cisco 7513 router with the standby RSP loaded in slot 7. The standby RSP
is reset and reloaded with the rsp-pv-mz high availability Cisco IOS image. Both RSPs have slot 0 flash
memory cards.

12.2(33)SB This commands behavior was modified on the Cisco 10000 series router for the
PRE3 and PRE4, and the reload option was introduced on the router.
15.0(1)M This command was modified. The command became available in global
configuration mode. The powered, unpowered, and dual-wide keywords were
added.
Usage Guidelines The stop form of this command is issued from the router shelf console instead of by pressing the attention
(ATTN) button on the target DSC. Confirmation of when the start or stop took place is displayed. Warnings
are issued and confirmation input is required if a stop command will result in a loss of service when backup
functionality is not available.
When a DSC card is stopped, removed, and then reinstalled, there is no need to restart the card (whether the
card is the original or a replacement) because a freshly installed card reboots as the backup DSC automatically.
However, if a DSC is stopped, either by using the ATTN button or by issuing the hw-moduleslotstop command,
it must be restarted by using the start form of the same command, or the DSC must be removed and reinstalled
in order to reboot.
Press the ATTN button on the DSCs to shut down a card manually before removing the card. This is equivalent
to issuing an hw-moduleslot command for that card at the router command prompt. Use the ATTN button to
shut down the card before it is swapped out or tested in place, or to restart it, if the card has not been removed
after having been shut down.
Tip The hw-module slot shelf-id/slot-numberreload form of this command is useful for simulating an OIR
event in the case of a feature board failure when physical access to the feature board card is restricted.
Entering the hw-module slot shelf-id/slot-numberreloadcommand initiates the feature board reload process
through power cycling. The hw-module slot shelf-id/slot-numberreload command cannot be used to reload
DSCs.
Use the reset form of this command to reset the specified feature card and drop all active calls.
Use the shutdown form of this command to shut down the specified feature card and drop all active calls.
Cisco 10000 Series Router Usage Guidelines,
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SB, when you enter the hw-moduleslotslot-numberreset command, the software
asks you to confirm the command.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(31)SB, the software does not ask you to confirm the hw-moduleslotslot-numberreset
command.

If you specify a slot number without a group number, all four groups are put into transparent/mux mode.
You cannot put the port group into oversubscription mode when any port in the port group is configured as
a virtual switch link (VSL). A warning message is displayed asking you to disable the VSL link before changing
to oversubscription mode.
When you enter the showinterfaces command on the disabled ports, the output displays disabled for
performance to distinguish between the normal port shutdown and the shutdown for performance.
Each 4-port group shares a common packet queue. If head-of-line blocking is enabled and one port of the four
ports receives a pause frame, all packets are blocked behind this packet until the packet is delivered to the
flow-controlled port. You can enter the hw-moduleslotclear-block [ port-group num] command to drop the

Usage Guidelines Use the hw-moduleslotslot-numberstopcommand to stop traffic, turn on the green OIR LED, and shut down
all interfaces to remove a line card, MSC, or PCI port adapter carrier card from the Cisco 7304 router without
disrupting data flow. You should not remove hardware while traffic is still running.
The stop keyword stops traffic through interfaces and deactivates the hardware. When the OIR LED turns
green, the hardware has been deactivated and can be physically removed.
The hw-moduleslotslot-numberstartcommand restarts the line card, MSC, or PCI port adapter carrier card
and shuts off the OIR LED, putting the card back online.
Use the hw-moduleslotslot-numberstartcommand if you issue the hw-moduleslotslot-numberstop command,
did not remove the hardware, and now want to reactivate it. If you remove and then reinsert the hardware, the
hardware restarts without this command.
This command cannot be used for online removal of SPAs. For online removal of SPAs, use the

12.2(33)SRE6 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRE6.
15.3(1)S This command was modified. The ipv6-hbh-rl keyword was added.
Usage Guidelines
The FSOL queue is used by broadband FSOL and EFP FSOL.
The punt queue is used by Layer 4 and PBHK packets.
An increase in the number of either FSOL or punt rate limiters enables more packets to reach the RP.
This increase exerts more load on the RP CPU. Therefore, changing the default values of either FSOL
or punt rate limiters is not recommended.
On the ES+ line cards, setting the police rate to 0 turns off the policing. On the SIP-400, the policing
does not stop but all the packets are dropped.
For both the ES+ line cards and the SIP-400, when the policer is set from the line card console, the
setting remains effective even if the line card is moved to another chassis running the Cisco IOS Release
15.3(1)S or later images.
For the SIP-400, IPv6 HBH packets continue to go through the QoS policing configured on the line
card. For the ES+ line cards, IPv6 HBH packets bypass any QoS policing configured on the line card.
Examples The following example shows how to set the FSOL rate to 50000 b/s:

Usage Guidelines The hw-modulesubslot command stops and starts power to the SPA. This command is useful when you want
to restart all interfaces on a SPA. When the stop and reload keywords are used, you get a prompt to confirm.
Enter y or use the return key to confirm. Power to the SPA is now stopped or reloaded. If you use the force
keyword along with the reload keyword, you can proceed further without getting any prompt for confirmation.
The Excalibur and Ethernet Services cards do not have the reload option.
The command is recommended to restart a SPA under the following conditions:
To restart a SPA after it has been powered off because of a failure.
To recover from corrupted messaging between the Route Processor (RP) and the SIP.
Examples The following command power cycles the SPA in subslot 1 of the SIP installed in chassis slot 1:
Related Commands
Command Description
show hw-module subslot oir Displays the operational status of a SPA.
Command Default The modules and its interfaces are not activated.
Usage Guidelines The hw-module subslot command allows you to stop and start the power supply to a supported cisco services
or network interface module (NIM) on a Cisco 4400 Series Integrated Services Router (ISR). This functionality
is also referred as the online insertion and removal (OIR) and it is useful when you want to remove a module
from one of the subslots while another active module remains installed on your router.
Note If you are not planning to immediately replace a module, ensure that you install a blank filter plate in the
subslot.
The stop option allows you to gracefully deactivate a module and the module is rebooted when the start
command is executed. The reload option will stop or deactivate a specified module and restart it.
Related Commands
Command Description
show hw-module subslot oir Displays the operational status of a module.
Syntax Description slot / Specifies the chassis slot number where the SIP is
installed.
Command Default There is no default behavior or values. When this command is not configured, up to 8100 dot1q VLANs per
Ethernet SPA are supported.
Usage Guidelines For any Ethernet SPA on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series aggregation services routers, the maximum number of
IEEE 802.1Q VLANs that can be configured per port is 4094. The default total maximum number of VLANs
per SPA is 8100.
The limit on this total maximum number of VLANs per SPA ( which means, the default of 8100 VLANs)
can be removed using the hw-modulesubslotethernetvlanunlimited command. However, the limit on the
maximum number of VLANs per Ethernet port or interface (i.e. 4094) still applies. Therefore, the new
maximum number of supported VLANs per SPA varies by the number of ports on the SPA multiplied by
4094. On the 5-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA, you can configure up to 20,470 dot1q (or unambiguous QinQ)
VLANs. On an 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet SPA, you can configure up to 32752 dot1q (or unambiguous QinQ)
VLANs.
When the hw-modulesubslotethernetvlanunlimited command is configured, VLAN filtering, accounting,
and classification are no longer performed by the Ethernet SPA and all 802.1Q frames and QinQ frames are
processed by the Quantum Flow Processor (QFP) on the Cisco ASR1000 Series Router. Sending all of the
dot1q VLAN frames to the QFP (without filtering) may reduce the QFP packet switching performance.
The default classification of CoS bits 6-7 as high priority is still supported. However, other user-defined CoS
values for high and low priority classification using the plimqosinputmapcosqueue command are not supported
when this command is in use.
Examples The following example enables support for maximum per-port dot1q VLAN configuration for the SPA located
in the first subslot (0) of the SIP located in slot 1 of the Cisco ASR1000 Series Router:

Command Default By default, the Cisco 1-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN/WAN-PHY Shared Port Adapter operates in the WAN
mode when the SPA boots-up.
Usage Guidelines By default, the Cisco 1-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN/WAN-PHY Shared Port Adapter initializes in the WAN
mode. The Cisco 1-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN/WAN-PHY Shared Port Adapter can operate in either the
LAN mode or the WAN mode. To change the LAN mode or WAN mode, execute the
hw-modulesubslotslot/subslotenable {LAN | WAN} command from the Global configuration mode.
Examples The following example shows how to enable the LAN mode on a Cisco 1-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet
LAN/WAN-PHY Shared Port Adapter:
Router# config

12.0(31)S This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0(31)S.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines When you shut down a SPA using this command, you can choose to put it into one of two states:
Powered state--(Default) Shuts down the SPA, but the SPA remains powered on. Use this option when
you plan to leave the SPA physically installed and cabled in the SPA. You might choose to do this if
you want to install a SPA and configure it, but do not want it online or to start communicating with the
remote end of the connection.
Unpowered state--Shuts down the SPA and removes power from the SPA. Use this option when you
plan to remove the SPA from the chassis.
This command is useful when a user wants all the interfaces on a SPA disabled but does not or cannot remove
the SPA. Unlike the hw-modulesubslotstop EXEC command on the Cisco 7304 router, this command is
saved in the configuration file and will keep the SPA disabled when other router events (such as a router
reload or OIR) attempt to restart the SPA. All other settings and configurations of the SPA will be maintained
even if the SPA itself is shutdown using this command.
As a general rule, you do not need to shut down a SPA if you are removing it and replacing it with the same
exact model of SPA in an online insertion and removal (OIR) operation. However, you should shut down a
SPA whenever you are replacing a SPA with a different model of SPA.
When you shut down a SPA using the hw-modulesubslotshutdowncommand, it remains shutdown even if
you reset the SPA or install a new SPA in that subslot. To begin using the card again, you must manually
re-enable the card using the nohw-modulesubslotshutdowncommand.
Note This is a global configuration command, not an EXEC command. On the Cisco 7304 router, another
hw-modulesubslot command is also available in EXEC mode, but that command is used for different
purposes. An important distinction between this command and the hw-modulesubslot command in EXEC
mode on the Cisco 7304 router is that this command is saved in the configuration.
Examples The following example shows how to disable the SPA in subslot 4/1 while leaving the SPA in the SPA chassis.
This command will be saved to the configuration file and no actions, outside of changing this configuration,
will re-enable the SPA:
The following example shows how to configure the SPA to resume normal operation after the unpowered
option has been used to disable the SPA:
No messages are provided on the console when you shut down or re-enable a SPA.

1
hw-module slot Deactivates or reactivates a carrier card that is
installed in a router slot. This command is entered in
EXEC mode and is not saved to the configuration
file.
Syntax Description slot Specifies the chassis slot number where the module
installed.
Refer to the hardware installation guide for more
information on slots. For information on modules and
interfaces, refer to the module specific hardware
installation guide.
Command Default If this command is not used, no hw-module subslot shutdown is the default behavior. When no hw-module
subslot is configured, the module is powered on for normal operation.
If the hw-module subslot shutdown command is entered but neither powered or unpowered are specified
in the CLI, powered is the default behavior.
Usage Guidelines When you shut down a Cisco Services or Network Interface Module (NIM) using this command, you can
choose to put it into one of two states:
Powered state--(Default) Shuts down the module, but the router remains powered on. Use this option
when you plan to leave the module physically installed and cabled into the router. You might choose to
do this if you want to install a module and configure it, but do not want it online or to start communicating
with the remote end of the connection.
Unpowered state--Shuts down the module and removes power from the module. Use this option when
you plan to remove the module from the chassis.
If you choose to deactivate your module and its interfaces by executing the hw-module subslot shutdown
command in global configuration mode, you are able to change the configuration in such a way that no matter
how many times the router is rebooted, the module does not boot. This command is useful when you need to
shut down a module located in a remote location and ensure that it does not boot automatically when the router
is rebooted. To begin using the interface again, you must manually re-enable the module using the no
hw-module subslot shutdown command.
Examples The following example shows how to disable the module in subslot 0/2 without removing the module from
the router :

idle-pattern
To define the idle pattern that a circuit emulation (CEM) channel transmits when the channel experiences an
underrun condition or to replace any missing packets, use the idle-patterncommand in CEM configuration
mode. To stop sending idle pattern data, use the no form of this command.
Command Default For T1 or E1 channels, the default idle pattern is 0xFF. For serial channels, the default idle pattern is 0xFF
and 8 bits in length.
Usage Guidelines Idle pattern data is always sent in multiples of one entire packet payload. If a single packet is missing from
the arriving data stream it is replaced by an idle packet of the same payload size and composed of repetitions
of the specified idle pattern. If the CEM channel outbound (egress) buffer experiences an underrun condition,
identical idle packets are transmitted until the dejitter buffer is filled to at least half its total depth.
Examples The following example shows how to configure a 32-bit idle pattern for a serial CEM channel.

and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command applies to Quad Serial NIM interfaces on the Cisco 4000 series routers and Hitachi-based
serial interfaces on the Cisco 2500 and Cisco 3000 series routers.
Serial Interfaces in DTE Mode
When the serial interface is operating in DTE mode, it monitors the DCD signal as the line up/down indicator.
By default, the attached DCE device sends the DCD signal. When the DTE interface detects the DCD signal,
it changes the state of the interface to up.
SDLC Multidrop Environments
In some configurations, such as an Synchronous Data Link Control (SDLC) multidrop environment, the DCE
device sends the DSR signal instead of the DCD signal, which prevents the interface from coming up. Use
this command to tell the interface to monitor the DSR signal instead of the DCD signal as the line up/down
indicator.
Examples The following example shows how to configure serial interface 0 to monitor the DSR signal as the line up/down
indicator:

configure all associated member interfaces by entering one command on the group master interface, rather
than entering this command on each individual interface. You can create multiple group masters on a device;
however, each member interface can be associated only with one group.
Using the port-channel Keyword
The Fast EtherChannel feature allows multiple Fast Ethernet point-to-point links to be bundled into one logical
link to provide bidirectional bandwidth of up to 800 Mbps. You can configure the port-channel interface as
you would any Fast Ethernet interface.
After you create a port-channel interface, you assign upto four Fast Ethernet interfaces to it. For information
on how to assign a Fast Ethernet interface to a port-channel interface, refer to the channel-group command
in the interface configuration mode.
Caution The port-channel interface is the routed interface. Do not enable Layer 3 addresses on the physical Fast
Ethernet interfaces. Do not assign bridge groups on the physical Fast Ethernet interfaces because doing
so creates loops. Also, you must disable spanning tree.
Caution With Release 11.1(20)CC, the Fast EtherChannel supports Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) and distributed
Cisco Express Forwarding (dCEF). We recommend that you clear all explicitiproute-cachedistributed
commands from the Fast Ethernet interfaces before enabling dCEF on the port-channel interface. Clearing
the route cache gives the port-channel interface proper control of its physical Fast Ethernet links. When
you enable CEF/dCEF globally, all interfaces that support CEF/dCEF are enabled. When CEF/dCEF is
enabled on the port-channel interface, it is automatically enabled on each of the Fast Ethernet interfaces
in the channel group. However, if you have previously disabled CEF/dCEF on the Fast Ethernet interface,
CEF/dCEF is not automatically enabled. In this case, you must enable CEF/dCEF on the Fast Ethernet
interface.
interfaces in the group. If the first EtherChannel interface is removed at any time, the second EtherChannel
interface becomes the bundled master by default.
Repeat this configuration on every EtherChannel port to be bundled into a Fast Ether Channel (FEC) or Gigabit
Ether Channel (GEC) group. This configuration must be present on all EtherChannel interfaces before the
EtherChannel group can be configured.
Cisco 4400 Series Integrated Services Router (ISR)
The Gigabit Ethernet interface allows you to perform management tasks on the router and is often referred
as the management interface port. You can use the Gigabit Ethernet interface to access the router via Telnet
and SSH to perform management tasks on the router. The interface is most useful before a router has begun
routing, or in troubleshooting scenarios when other forwarding interfaces are inactive. You can configure a
Gigabit Ethernet interface on your router using the interface GigabitEthernet0 command in Global
configuration mode.

Release Modification
12.2(33)SXH The create keyword was added to enable the creation of VLANs that
operate within a specified range of physical interfaces.
You can specify either the interfaces or the name of a range macro. A range must consist of the same interface
type, and the interfaces within a range cannot span slots.
You cannot specify both the interfacerangeand macro keywords in the same command. After creating a
macro, the command does not allow you to enter additional ranges. Likewise, if you have already specified
an interface range, the command does not allow you to enter a macro.
The spaces around the hyphen in the interfacerange command syntax are required. For example, using a
Catalyst 6500 router, the command interfacerangefastethernet1-6is valid; the command
interfacerangefastethernet1-6is not valid.
VLANs
When you define a Catalyst VLAN, valid values are from 1 to 4094. The last VLAN number cannot exceed
4094.
You cannot use the interfacerange command to create switch virtual interfaces (SVIs) in that particular range.
You can use the interfacerange command only to configure existing VLAN SVIs within the range. To display
VLAN SVIs, enter the showrunning-config command. VLANs not displayed cannot be used in the
interfacerange command.
The commands entered under theinterfacerange command are applied to all existing VLAN SVIs within the
range.
You can enter the command interfacerangecreatevlanx-y to create all VLANs in the specified range that do
not already exist. If you are using discontiguous VLANs, you can use the interfacerangevlan command to
configure multiple SVIs without creating unneeded SVIs and wasting interface descriptor blocks (IDBs).
After specifying a VLAN range, you can continue using the interfacerange command to specify another
interface (ATM, FastEthernet, GigabitEthernet, loopback, port-channel, or tunnel).
Examples
Examples The following example shows how to use the interfacerange command to configure a Fast Ethernet range:
The following example configures the Fast Ethernet subinterfaces within the range 5/1.1 to 5/1.4 and applies
the following VLAN IDs to those subinterfaces:

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in
a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Delays between the serial clock transmit external (SCTE) clock and data transmission indicate that the TX
clock signal might not be appropriate for the interface rate and length of cable being used. Different ends of
the wire can have variances that differ slightly. The inverttxclock command compensates for these variances.
This command replaces the invert-transmit-clock command.
Systems that use long cables or cables that are not transmitting the TxC signal (transmit echoed clock line,
also known as TXCE or SCTE clock) can experience high error rates when operating at the higher transmission
speeds. For example, if a PA-8T synchronous serial port adapter is reporting a high number of error packets,
a phase shift might be the problem. Inverting the clock might correct this shift.
When a PA-8T or PA-4T+ port adapter interface is DTE, the inverttxclockcommand inverts the TxC signal
it received from the remote DCE. When the PA-8T or PA-4T+ port adapter interface is DCE, this command
changes the signal back to its original phase.
Examples The following example inverts the TX clock signal on serial interface 3/0:
ip dscp
To enable the use of IP differentiated services code point (DSCP) for packets that originate from a circuit
emulation (CEM) channel, use the ipdscp command in CEM configuration mode. To disable the use of IP
DSCP, use the no form of this command.
ip dscp [ dscp-value ]
no ip dscp
Command Default IP DSCP is enabled for packets that originate from a CEM channel.
Usage Guidelines DSCP is mutually exclusive from both IP type of service (ToS) and IP precedence. Thus, if DSCP is configured,
the iptos command and the ipprecedence command are both unavailable at the command-line interface (CLI).
Examples The following example shows how to set the IP DSCP field value to 36.

ip rbscp ack-split
To configure the TCP ACK splitting feature of the Rate-Based Satellite Control Protocol (RBSCP) on an
outgoing interface for packets that are permitted by a specified access list, use the iprbscpack-splitcommand
in interface configuration mode. To disable the feature on the interface, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description size The number of TCP ACKs to send for every TCP
ACK received. A sizeof 0 or 1 indicates that this
feature is disabled (that is, no TCP ACK splitting will
occur). The range is 0 through 32.
Command Default Disabled (TCP ACK splitting is not required on an outgoing interface for packets that are permitted by a
specified acccess list).
Usage Guidelines This command enables TCP ACK splitting for outgoing packets that are permitted by the access list. TCP
ACK splitting is a software technique to improve performance for clear-text TCP traffic using acknowledgment
(ACK) splitting, in which a number of additional TCP ACKs are generated for each TCP ACK received.
TCP ACK splitting causes TCP to open the congestion window more quickly than usual, thus decreasing the
effect of long latencies. TCP will generally open the congestion window by one maximum transmission unit
(MTU) for each TCP ACK received. Opening the congestion window results in increased bandwidth becoming
available. Configure this feature only when the satellite link is not using all the available bandwidth. Encrypted
traffic cannot use TCP ACK splitting.
Caution Plan your network carefully so that no more than one Cisco IOS router in a given routing path has this
feature enabled. You do not want to recursively ACK-split traffic.
An interface can use only one instance of this feature at a time. Each instance of this feature can be used on
multiple interfaces.
If you configure this feature but it refers to a nonexistent access list, this is interpreted as having an access
list that denies all traffic from being processed by the Access-List-Based RBSCP feature, so the feature is
essentially disabled and the traffic goes through the normal switching path.
Examples In the following example, the access list performs TCP ACK splitting on packets going out Ethernet interface
0 from a source at 172.22.18.5 to a destination at 172.23.27.4:

12.2(33)SRC This command was modified. The l2-src keyword was added to support the
source IPv4 and source MAC address binding feature on platforms that support
the Cisco Express Forwarding software switching path.
15.0(1)M This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 15.0(1)M.
Usage Guidelines Use the ip verify unicast source reachable-via interface command to mitigate problems caused by malformed
or forged (spoofed) IP source addresses that pass through a router. Malformed or forged source addresses can
indicate DoS attacks based on source IP address spoofing.
To use Unicast RPF, enable Cisco Express Forwarding or distributed Cisco Express Forwarding in the router.
There is no need to configure the input interface for Cisco Express Forwarding. As long as Cisco Express
Forwarding is running on the router, individual interfaces can be configured with other switching modes.
Note It is important for Cisco Express Forwarding to be configured globally on the router. Unicast RPF does
not work without Cisco Express Forwarding.
Note Unicast RPF is an input function and is applied on the interface of a router only in the ingress direction.
When Unicast RPF is enabled on an interface, the router examines all packets that are received on that interface.
The router checks to make sure that the source address appears in the FIB. If the rx keyword is selected, the
source address must match the interface on which the packet was received. If the any keyword is selected,
the source address must be present only in the FIB. This ability to "look backwards" is available only when
Cisco Express Forwarding is enabled on the router because the lookup relies on the presence of the FIB. Cisco
Express Forwarding generates the FIB as part of its operation.
Note If the source address of an incoming packet is resolved to a null adjacency, the packet will be dropped.
The null interface is treated as an invalid interface by the new form of the Unicast RPF command. The
older form of the command syntax did not exhibit this behavior.
Unicast RPF checks to determine whether any packet that is received at a router interface arrives on one of
the best return paths to the source of the packet. If a reverse path for the packet is not found, Unicast RPF can
drop or forward the packet, depending on whether an ACL is specified in the Unicast RPF command. If an
ACL is specified in the command, when (and only when) a packet fails the Unicast RPF check, the ACL is
checked to determine whether the packet should be dropped (using a deny statement in the ACL) or forwarded
(using a permit statement in the ACL). Whether a packet is dropped or forwarded, the packet is counted in
the global IP traffic statistics for Unicast RPF drops and in the interface statistics for Unicast RPF.
If no ACL is specified in the ip verify unicast source reachable-via command, the router drops the forged
or malformed packet immediately, and no ACL logging occurs. The router and interface Unicast RPF counters
are updated.
Unicast RPF events can be logged by specifying the logging option for the ACL entries that are used by the
ip verify unicast source reachable-via command. Log information can be used to gather information about
the attack, such as source address, time, and so on.
Strict Mode RPF
If the source address is in the FIB and reachable only through the interface on which the packet was received,
the packet is passed. The syntax for this method is ip verify unicast source reachable-via rx.
Exists-Only (or Loose Mode) RPF
If the source address is in the FIB and reachable through any interface on the router, the packet is passed. The
syntax for this method is ip verify unicast source reachable-via any.
Because this Unicast RPF option passes packets regardless of which interface the packet enters, it is often
used on Internet service provider (ISP) routers that are "peered" with other ISP routers (where asymmetrical
routing typically occurs). Packets using source addresses that have not been allocated on the Internet, which
are often used for spoofed source addresses, are dropped by this Unicast RPF option. All other packets that
have an entry in the FIB are passed.
allow-default
Normally, sources found in the FIB but only by way of the default route will be dropped. Specifying the
allow-default keyword option will override this behavior. You must specify the allow-default keyword in
the command to permit Unicast RPF to successfully match on prefixes that are known through the default
route to pass these packets.
allow-self-ping
This keyword allows the router to ping its own interface or interfaces. By default, when Unicast RPF is enabled,
packets that are generated by the router and destined to the router are dropped, thereby, making certain
troubleshooting and management tasks difficult to accomplish. Issue the allow-self-ping keyword to enable
self-pinging.
Caution Caution should be used when enabling the allow-self-ping keyword because this option opens a potential
DoS hole.
Note With Unicast RPF, all equal-cost "best" return paths are considered valid. This means that Unicast RPF
works in cases where multiple return paths exist, provided that each path is equal to the others in terms
of the routing cost (number of hops, weights, and so on) and as long as the route is in the FIB. Unicast
RPF also functions where Enhanced Internet Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) variants are being used
and unequal candidate paths back to the source IP address exist.
Use Unicast RPF loose mode on interfaces where asymmetric paths allow packets from valid source networks
(networks contained in the FIB). Routers that are in the core of the ISP network have no guarantee that the
best forwarding path out of the router will be the path selected for packets returning to the router.
IP and MAC Address Spoof Prevention
In Release 15.0(1)M and later, you can use the l2-srckeyword to enable source IPv4 and source MAC address
binding. To disable source IPv4 and source MAC address binding, use the no form of the ip verify unicast
source reachable-viacommand.
If an inbound packet fails this security check, it will be dropped and the Unicast RPF dropped-packet counter
will be incremented. The only exception occurs if a numbered access control list has been specified as part
of the Unicast RPF command in strict mode, and the ACL permits the packet. In this case the packet will be
forwarded and the Unicast RPF suppressed-drops counter will be incremented.
Note The l2-src keyword cannot be used with the loose uRPF command, ip verify unicast source reachable-via
anycommand.
Not all platforms support the l2-src keyword. Therefore, not all the possible keyword combinations for strict
Unicast RPF in the following list will apply to your platform:
Possible keyword combinations for strict Unicast RPF include the following:
allow-default
allow-self-ping
l2-src
<ACL-number>
allow-default allow-self-ping
allow-default l2-src
allow-default <ACL-number>
allow-self-ping l2-src
allow-self-ping <ACL-number>
l2-src <ACL-number>
Examples
Examples The following example uses a very simple single-homed ISP connection to demonstrate the concept of Unicast
RPF. In this example, an ISP peering router is connected through a single serial interface to one upstream
ISP. Hence, traffic flows into and out of the ISP will be symmetric. Because traffic flows will be symmetric,
a Unicast RPF strict-mode deployment can be configured.

ip verify unicast source reachable-via
Examples The following example demonstrates the use of ACLs and logging with Unicast RPF. In this example, extended
ACL 197 provides entries that deny or permit network traffic for specific address ranges. Unicast RPF is
configured on interface Ethernet 0/1/1 to check packets arriving at that interface.
For example, packets with a source address of 192.168.201.10 arriving at interface Ethernet 0/1/1 are dropped
because of the deny statement in ACL 197. In this case, the ACL information is logged (the logging option
is turned on for the ACL entry) and dropped packets are counted per-interface and globally. Packets with a
source address of 192.168.201.100 arriving at interface Ethernet 0/1/2 are forwarded because of the permit
statement in ACL 197. ACL information about dropped or suppressed packets is logged (the logging option
is turned on for the ACL entry) to the log server.

To create an IP Header Compression (IPHC) profile and to enter IPHC-profile configuration mode, use the
iphc-profile command in global configuration mode. To attach an existing IPHC profile to an interface or
subinterface, use the iphc-profile command in interface configuration mode. To delete the IPHC profile, use
the no form of this command.
Command Modes Global configuration (to create an IPHC profile) Interface configuration (to attach an existing IPHC profile
to an interface or subinterface)
Usage Guidelines The iphc-profile command creates an IPHC profile used for enabling header compression and enters
IPHC-profile configuration mode (config-iphcp). An IPHC profile is a template within which you can configure
the type of header compression that you want to use, enable any optional features and settings for header
compression, and then apply the profile to an interface, a subinterface, or a Frame Relay permanent virtual
circuit (PVC).
Specifying the IPHC Profile Type
When you create an IPHC profile, you must specify the IPHC profile type by using either the ietf keyword
or the van-jacobson keyword. The IETF profile type conforms to and supports the standards established with
RFC 2507, RFC 2508, RFC 3544, and RFC 3545 and is typically associated with non-TCP header compression
(for example, RTP header compression). The Van Jacobson profile type conforms to and supports the standards
established with RFC 1144 and is typically associated with TCP header compression.
Note If you are using Frame Relay encapsulation, you must specify the ietfkeyword (not the van-jacobson
keyword).
Note The header compression format in use on the router that you are configuring and the header compression
format in use on the remote network link must match.
Table 20: Van Jacobson IPHC Profile Type Header Compression Features and Settings
tcp contexts Sets the number of contexts available for TCP header
compression.
If you specify IETF as the IPHC profile type, you can enable non-TCP header compression (that is, RTP
header compression), along with a number of additional features and settings. The table below lists each
available IETF IPHC profile type header compression feature and setting and the command or commands
used to enable it.
Table 21: IETF IPHC Profile Type Header Compression Features and Settings
refresh max-period refresh max-time refresh rtp Sets the context refresh (full-header refresh) options,
such as the amount of time to wait before a full header
is refreshed.
tcp contexts Sets the number of contexts available for TCP header
compression.
Examples In the following example, an IPHC profile called profile1 is created, and the Van Jacobson IPHC profile type
is specified.
Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# iphc-profile profile1 van-jacobson
Router(config-iphcp)# end
In the following example, a second IPHC profile called profile2 is created. For this IPHC profile, the IETF
IPHC profile type is specified.
Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# iphc-profile profile2 ietf
Router(config-iphcp)# end
In the following example, an existing IPHC profile called profile2 is attached to serial interface 3/0. For this
IPHC profile, the IPHC profile type (in this case, IETF) of profile2 is specified.
Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# interface serial 3/0
Router(config-if)# iphc-profile profile2 ietf
Router(config-iphcp)# end

Command Description
feedback Enables the context-status feedback messages from
the interface or link.
tcp contexts Set the number of contexts available for TCP header
compression.
keepalive
To enable keepalive packets and to specify the number of times that the Cisco IOS software tries to send
keepalive packets without a response before bringing down the interface or before bringing down the tunnel
protocol for a specific interface, use the keepalive command in interface configuration mode. When the
keepalive function is enabled, a keepalive packet is sent at the specified time interval to keep the interface
active. To turn off keepalive packets entirely, use the no form of this command.
keepalive [period[retries] ]
no keepalive [period[proto-up]]
Syntax Description period (Optional) Integer value that represents the time
interval, in seconds, between messages sent by the
Cisco IOS software to ensure that a network interface
is alive.
The valid range is from 0 to 32767 and the
default value is 10.
Command Default The time interval between messages is10 seconds, and the number of retries is 3.
12.2(8)T This command was modified. The retries argument was added and made
available on tunnel interfaces.
12.2(13)T This command was modified. The default value for the retries argument was
increased to 5.
12.2SX This command was added in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in
a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
15.1(4)M8 This command was modified. The proto-up keyword was added.
15.2(2)SNI This command was implemented on the Cisco ASR 901 Series Aggregation
Services Routers.
Usage Guidelines The service intervalcommand must be enabled to run the no keepalivecommand.
Defaults for the keepalive Command
If you enter only the keepalive command with no arguments, default values for both arguments are used. If
you enter the keepalive command and the timeout parameter, the default number of retries (5) is used. If you
enter the nokeepalivecommand, keepalive packets are disabled on the interface. When the interface goes
down, the session continues without shutting down because the keepalive packets are disabled.
Keepalive Time Interval
You can configure the keepalive time interval, which is the frequency at which the Cisco IOS software sends
messages to itself (Ethernet and Token Ring) or to the other end (serial and tunnel), to ensure that a network
interface is alive. The interval is adjustable in 1-second increments down to 1 second. An interface is declared
down after five update intervals have passed without receiving a keepalive packet unless the retry value is set
higher. If you are running a Cisco IOS image prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(13)T, the default retry value is
3.
Note Ethernet interface drivers on some access platforms use the keepalive time as the interval to test for network
connectivity. By default, Ethernet link failure detection occurs between 1 and 9 seconds. Keepalive packets
are still transmitted on the interface during this time.
Setting the keepalive timer to a low value is very useful for rapidly detecting Ethernet interface failures
(transceiver cable disconnecting, cable not terminated, and so on).
Line Failure
A typical serial line failure involves losing the Carrier Detect (CD) signal. Because this sort of failure is
typically noticed within a few milliseconds, adjusting the keepalive timer for quicker routing recovery is
generally not useful.
Keepalive Packets with Tunnel Interfaces
Generic routing encapsulation (GRE) keepalive packets may be sent from both sides of a tunnel or from just
one side. If they are sent from both sides, the period and retry parameters can be different at each side of the
link. If you configure keepalives on only one side of the tunnel, the tunnel interface on the sending side might
perceive the tunnel interface on the receiving side to be down because the sending interface is not receiving
keepalives. From the receiving side of the tunnel, the link appears normal because no keepalives were enabled
on the second side of the link.
Dropped Packets
Keepalive packets are treated as ordinary packets, so it is possible that they will be dropped. To reduce the
chance that dropped keepalive packets will cause the tunnel interface to be taken down, increase the number
of retries.
Note When adjusting the keepalive timer for a very low bandwidth serial interface, large datagrams can delay
the smaller keepalive packets long enough to cause the line protocol to go down. You may need to
experiment to determine the best values to use for the timeout and the number of retry attempts.
Examples The following example shows how to enable keepalive packets and set the keepalive interval to 3 seconds:

12.2(33)SRC This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRC.
12.2(33)SB Support for this command was implemented on the Cisco 10000 series
router and integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SB. The time allowed
for a link switchover was modified from the default of 2 seconds to 250
milliseconds.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5
Usage Guidelines Prior to entering the lacp fast-switchover command, you must ensure the following:
The port channel protocol type is LACP.
The lacp max-bundle 1command has been entered on the port channel. The lacp fast-switchover
command will not affect the lacp max-bundle command.
When you enable LACP 1:1 link redundancy, based on the system priority and port priority, the port with the
higher system priority chooses the link as the active link and the other link as the standby link. When the
active link fails, the standby link is selected as the new active link without taking down the port channel.
When the original active link recovers, it reverts to its active link status. During this change-over, the port
channel is also up.
Note We recommend that you configure two ports only (one active and one hot-standby) in the bundle for
optimum performance.
You can enter this command on any port channels with different EtherChannel protocol types of LACP, Port
Aggregation Protocol (PAgP), or Fast EtherChannel (FEC).

lex input-address-list
To assign an access list that filters on MAC addresses, use the lexinput-address-list command in interface
configuration mode. To remove an access list from the interface, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description access-list-number Number of the access list assigned with the access-list
global configuration command. It can be a number
from 700 to 799.
Usage Guidelines Use the lexinput-address-list command to filter the packets that are allowed to pass from the LAN Extender
to the core router. The access list filters packets on the basis of the source MAC address.
The LAN Extender interface does not process MAC-address masks. Therefore, you should omit the mask
from the access-list commands.
For LAN Extender interfaces, an implicit permit everything entry is automatically defined at the end of an
access list. Note that this default differs from other access lists, which have an implicit deny everything entry
at the end of each access list.
Examples The following example applies access list 710 to LAN Extender interface 0. This access list denies all packets
from MAC address 0800.0214.2776 and permits all other packets.

load-balancing
To apply a load-balancing method to a Gigabit EtherChannel (GEC) interface, use the load-balancing command
in interface configuration mode. To reset to the default, use the no form of this command.
Command Default The port channel uses the global load-balancing configuration.
Usage Guidelines The load-balancing command sets the load-balancing method on a specific port channel. The load-balancing
method configured with this command takes precedence over the global configuration defined with the
port-channelload-balancingvlan-manual command.
If you do not explicitly configure load balancing either globally or on the port channel, the load-balancing
method on the port channel is set to flow-based.
Load balancing uses the concept of buckets to map traffic flows to the member links of the port channel. The
different traffic flows are mapped to the buckets and each bucket has one active member link associated with
it. All flows that are mapped to a bucket use the member link associated with that bucket.
There are two methods of load balancing on a GEC interface:
VLAN-manual--All packets forwarded over the same VLAN subinterface are considered part of the
same flow and are mapped to the member link specified in the configuration.
Flow-based--Traffic flows are mapped to different member links based on the packet header.
Examples This example shows how to set the load-balancing method to VLAN-manual:

load-interval
To change the length of time for which data is used to compute load statistics, use the load-interval command
in interface configuration mode or Frame Relay DLCI configuration mode. To revert to the default setting,
use the noform of this command.
load-interval seconds
no load-interval seconds
Syntax Description seconds Length of time for which data is used to compute load
statistics. Value is a multiple of 30, from 30 to 600
(30, 60, 90, 120, and so on). The default is 300
seconds.
12.2(4)T This command was made available in Frame Relay DLCI configuration
mode.
12.2(18)SXF Support for this command was introduced on the Supervisor Engine 720.
12.2(28)SB This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(28)SB.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
15.1(2)SNG This command was implemented on the Cisco ASR 901 Series Aggregation
Services Routers.
Usage Guidelines To make computations more reactive to short bursts of traffic, you can shorten the length of time over which
load averages are computed.
If the load interval is set to 30 seconds, new data is used for load calculations over a 30-second period. This
data is used to compute load statistics, including the input rate in bits and packets per second, the output rate
in bits and packets per second, the load, and reliability.
Load data is gathered every five seconds. This data is used for a weighted-average calculation in which recent
load data has more weight in the computation than older load data. If the load interval is set to 30 seconds,
the average is computed for the last 30 seconds of load data.
If you change the calculation interval from the default of five minutes to a shorter period of time, the input
and output statistics that are displayed by the show interface command or the show frame-relay pvc command
will be more current and will be based on more nearly instantaneous data, rather than reflecting the average
load over a longer period of time.
This command is often used for dial backup purposes to increase or decrease the likelihood of implementation
of a backup interface, but it can be used on any interface.
Examples
Examples In the following example, the default average of five minutes is changed to a 30-second average. A burst in
traffic that would not trigger a dial backup for an interface configured with the default five-minute interval
might trigger a dial backup for this interface, which is set for the shorter 30-second interval.
Examples In the following example, the load interval is set to 60 seconds for a Frame Relay PVC with the DLCI 100:

Usage Guidelines This command does not have a no form. To remove a local IP address, either configure a new local IP address
or enter the noxconnect command to disable the connection and all its parameters.
The local IP address used to identify the local end of a CEM connection must be the same as the IP address
defined by the remote-ip-addressargument used in the xconnect command to identify the CEM channel at
the other end of the CEM connection.
Note If there are multiple CEM connections that originate from the same router, they may share the same local
IP address provided that each local IP address defines a unique UDP port number using thelocaludpport
command.

12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX. Support in a
specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command can be configured on the Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) and non-VRF interfaces.
Normally, a syslog message contains the IPv4 or IPv6 address of the interface used to leave the router. The
loggingsource-interface command configures the syslog packets contain the IP or IPv6 address of a particular
interface, regardless of which interface the packet uses to exit the router.
When no specific interface is configured, a wildcard interface address of 0.0.0.0 (for IPv4) or :: (for IPv6) is
used, and the IP socket selects the best outbound interface.
Examples In the following example, the user specifies that the IP address of Ethernet interface 0 is the source IP address
for all syslog messages:
The following example specifies that the IP address for Ethernet interface 2/1 is the source IP address for all
syslog messages:

the hardware to the framer, and analog loopbacks loop the circuit at the analog hybrid to verify the analog
loopback hardware to the analog hybrid. The controller must be shut down before loopback can be configured.
Examples If the controller is still up, the router will prompt you to turn the controller off as shown in this example:
Router(config-controller)# loopback

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,

Usage Guidelines This command is useful for testing the DTE-to-DCE cable.
This command is used to test the performance of the integrated CSU/DSU. Packets are looped from within
the CSU/DSU back to the serial interface of the router. Send a test ping to see if the packets successfully
looped back. To cancel the loopback test, use the noloopbackdte command.
When using the 4-wire 56/64-kbps CSU/DSU module, an out-of-service signal is transmitted to the remote
CSU/DSU.
To show a specific interface that is currently in loopback operation, use theshowinterfacesloopback EXEC
command.
Examples The following example configures the loopback test on the DTE interface:

in interface configuration mode. To remove the loop, use the no form of this command.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command is useful for testing the DCE device ( CSU/DSU) itself. When the loopbackline command is
configured on the 2-wire 56-kbps CSU/DSU module or the 4-wire 56/64-kbps CSU/DSU modules, the network
data loops back at the CSU and the router data loops back at the DSU. If the CSU/DSU is configured for
switched mode, you must have an established connection to perform a payload-line loopback. To loop the
received data through the minimum amount of CSU/DSU circuitry, issue the loopbackline command.
When you issue the loopbacklinepayload command on an integrated CSU/DSU module, the router cannot
transmit data through the serial interface for the duration of the loopback. Choosing the DSU as a loopback
point loops the received-network data through the maximum amount of CSU/DSU circuitry. Data is not looped
back to the serial interface. An active connection is required when operating in switched mode for payload
loopbacks.
If you enable the loopbackline command on the fractional T1/T1 module, the CSU/DSU performs a
full-bandwidth loopback through the CSU portion of the module and data transmission through the serial
interface is interrupted for the duration of the loopback. No reframing or corrections of bipolar violation errors
or cyclic redundancy check (CRC) errors are performed. When you configure the
loopbacklinepayloadcommand on the FT1/T1 module, the CSU/DSU performs a loopback through the DSU
portion of the module. The loopbacklinepayloadcommand reframes the data link, regenerates the signal, and
corrects bipolar violations and Extended Super Frame CRC errors.
When performing a T1-line loopback with Extended Super Frame, communication over the facilities data link
is interrupted, but performance statistics are still updated. To show interfaces currently in loopback operation,
use the showservice-moduleEXEC command.
To show interfaces that are currently in loopback operation on other routers, use the showinterfacesloopback
EXEC command.
Examples The following example configures the loopback test on the DCE device:

Command Description
show interfaces loopback Displays information about the loopback interface.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command is used for testing the data communication channels along with or without remote CSU/DSU
circuitry. The loopback is usually performed at the line port, rather than the DTE port, of the remote CSU/DSU.
For a multiport interface processor connected to a network via a channelized T1 link, the loopbackremote
interface configuration command applies if the remote interface is served by a DDS line (56 kbps or 64 kbps)
and if the device at the remote end is a CSU/DSU. In addition, the CSU/DSU at the remote end must react to
latched DDS CSU loopback codes. Destinations that are served by other types of lines or that have CSU/DSUs
that do not react to latched DDS CSU codes cannot participate in an interface remote loopback. Latched DDS
CSU loopback code requirements are described in AT&T specification TR-TSY-000476, OTGR Network
Maintenance Access and Testing.
For the integrated FT1/T1 CSU/DSU module, the loopbackremotefull command sends the loopup code to
the remote CSU/DSU. The remote CSU/DSU performs a full-bandwidth loopback through the CSU portion
of the module. Theloopbackremotepayload command sends the loopup code on the configured time slots,
while maintaining the D4-extended super frame. The remote CSU/DSU performs the equivalent of a loopback
line payload request. The remote CSU/DSU loops back only those time slots that are configured on the remote
end. This loopback reframes the data link, regenerates the signal, and corrects bipolar violations and extended
super frame CRC errors. The loopbackremotesmart-jackcommand sends a loopup code to the remote smart
jack. You cannot put the local smart jack into loopback.
Failure to loopup or initiate a remote loopback request could be caused by enabling the
noservice-modulet1remote-loopback command or having an alternate remote-loopback code configured on
the remote end. When the loopback is terminated, the result of the pattern test is displayed.
For the 2- and 4-wire, 56/64-kbps CSU/DSU module, an active connection is required before a loopup can
be initiated while in switched mode. When transmitting V.54 loopbacks, the loopback mode is initiated on
the remote device using V.54 messages. Failure to loopup or initiate a remote loopback request could be
caused by enabling the noservice-module56kremote-loopback command.
To display interfaces that are currently in loopback operation, use the showinterfacesloopback EXEC
command.
Examples
Examples The following example configures the remote device into full-bandwidth line loopback while specifying the
qrw test pattern over the T1 CSU/DSU module on a Cisco 2524 or Cisco 2525 router:
Examples The following example transmits a remote loopback stress pattern over the 4-wire, 56/64-kbps CSU/DSU
module, which tests the stress clocking of the network:

Related Commands
Command Description
show mac-address-table learning Displays the MAC-address learning state.
Command Default The router MAC address is derived from the backplane of the active chassis.
Usage Guidelines When a virtual switch comes up, the router MAC address is derived from the backplane of the active chassis
and is used as the common router MAC address for interfaces on both the active and the standby chassis.
Between switchovers, this MAC address is maintained on the new active switch. You can enter the
mac-addressmac-addresscommand to specify a MAC address to use or the mac-addressuse-virtual to use
the MAC address range reserved for the VSS.
The MAC address range reserved for the VSS is derived from a reserved pool of addresses with the domain
ID encoded in the leading 6 bits of the last octet and trailing 2 bits of the previous octet of the mac-address.
The last two bits of the first octet is allocated for protocol mac-address which is derived by adding the protocol
ID (0 to 3) to the router MAC address.
Note You must reload the virtual switch for the new router MAC address to take effect. If the MAC address
you configured is different from the current MAC address, the following message is displayed: Configured
Router mac address is different from operational value. Change will take effect after config is saved and
switch is reloaded.

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines The sum of all bandwidth allocation on an interface should not exceed 75 percent of the available bandwidth
on an interface. The remaining 25 percent of bandwidth is used for overhead, including Layer 2 overhead,
control traffic, and best-effort traffic.
If you need to allocate more than 75 percent for RSVP, CBWFQ, LLQ, IP RTP Priority, Frame Relay IP RTP
Priority, and Frame Relay PIPQ, you can use the max-reserved-bandwidth command. The percent argument
specifies the maximum percentage of the total interface bandwidth that can be used.
If you do use the max-reserved-bandwidth command, make sure that not too much bandwidth is taken away
from best-effort and control traffic.
Examples In the following example, the policy map called policy1 is configured for three classes with a total of 8 Mbps
configured bandwidth, as shown in the output from the showpolicy-map command:
I/f Ethernet1/1 class class3 requested bandwidth 3000 (kbps) Available only 2500 (kbps)
The error message is produced because the default maximum configurable bandwidth is 75 percent of the
available interface bandwidth, which in this example is 7.5 Mbps. To change the maximum configurable
bandwidth to 80 percent, use the max-reserved-bandwidth command in interface configuration mode, as
follows:
max-reserved-bandwidth 80
service output policy1
end
To verify that the policy map was attached, enter the showpolicy-mapinterface command:
Examples The following example configures a strict priority queue in a virtual template configuration with CBWFQ.
The max-reserved-bandwidth command changes the maximum bandwidth allocated between CBWFQ and
IP RTP Priority from the default (75 percent) to 80 percent.

Release Modification
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines To specify the physical connection on an interface, use the following interface configuration:
Ethernet network interface module configuration on Cisco 4000 series routers
Fast Ethernet Interface Processor (FEIP) on Cisco 7000 series, 7200 series, and 7500 series routers
Full-duplex or half-duplex mode on a serial interface
Use the media-typeinterface configuration command to modify the default physical media connection type
from rj45 to gbic to configure a Gigabit Ethernet interface to support fiber media using a GBIC or SFP optical
transceiver.
RJ-45 is the only media type supported by the 4-Port 10/100 Fast Ethernet SPA on the Cisco 7304 router, so
the media-typecommand does not apply.
Examples
Examples The following example selects an RJ-45 10BASE-T physical connection on Ethernet interface 1:
Examples The following example specifies a media-independent interface physical connection to Fast Ethernet slot 0,
port 1 on the Cisco 7000 or Cisco 7200 series:
Examples The following example specifies a media-independent interface physical connection to Fast Ethernet slot 0,
port adapter 1, port 1 on the Cisco 7500 series:
Examples The following example configures the second interface (port 1) on a 2-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet
SPA for a fiber SFP, where the SPA is installed in the bottom subslot (1) of the MSC, and the MSC is installed

minutes. If you specify the time interval as 30
minutes, the protect card switches back to the protect
mode after 30 minutes.
12.2(28)BC This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.3(23)BC.
Release Modification
12.2(28)SCA Support for the following keywords was removed in Cisco IOS Release
12.2(33)SCA and later releases:
revertive
reverttime
Note Use the revertive command in line card redundancy group mode to enable
the revert operation on a protect card in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCA
and later releases.
12.2(28)SCC4 Support for the following keywords was added in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCC4
for Cisco uBR10012 routers:
rf-power
rf-connector
hccp-delta
hccp-override
12.2(28)SCE The config option of the command was made the default. When more than one
working line cards are configured, the config option is automatically applied to
the first working card.
Usage Guidelines The primary line card must be the first line card configured and must occupy subslot 1. The secondary line
card must be the second line card configured and must occupy subslot 0. Only one primary line card and one
secondary line card can be configured.
Note Configuration changes to the working line card cause the upstream links on the protect line card to flap.
This is applicable only to Cisco uBR10012 routers.
Examples The following example creates line card group number 1 for one-to-one line card redundancy. It also specifies
the line card in subslot 1 as the primary (active) line card, and the line card in subslot 0 as the secondary
(standby) line card:
Router(config)# redundancy
Router(config-red)# linecard-group 1 y-cable
Router(config-red-lc)# member subslot 2/1 primary
Router(config-red-lc)# member subslot 2/0 secondary
Note The rest of the examples listed here are only applicable to Cisco uBR10012 routers.

mls ip directed-broadcast
To enable the hardware switching of the IP-directed broadcasts, use the mlsipdirected-broadcast command
in interface configuration mode. To return to the default settings, use the no form of this command.
12.2(17d)SXB Support for this command on the Supervisor Engine 2 was extended to
Release 12.2(17d)SXB.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines The exclude-router and include-router keywords both support hardware switching, but exclude-router does
not send a copy of the hardware-switched packets to the router. If you enter the include-router keyword, the
router does not forward the IP-directed broadcast packet again.
In the default mode, IP-directed broadcast packets are not hardware forwarded; they are handled at the process
level by the MSFC. The MSFC decision to forward or not forward the packet is dependent on the
ipdirected-broadcast command configuration.
There is no interaction between the ipdirected-broadcast command and the mlsipdirected-broadcast
command. The ipdirected-broadcast command involves software forwarding, and the
mlsipdirected-broadcast command involves hardware forwarding.
MLS IP-directed broadcast supports a secondary interface address.
Any packets that hit the CPU are not forwarded unless you add the ipdirected-broadcast command to the
same interface.
You can configure the MLS IP-directed broadcasts on a port-channel interface but not on the physical interfaces
on the port-channel interface. If you want to add a physical interface to a port-channel group, the physical
interface cannot have the MLS IP-directed broadcast configuration. You have to first remove the configuration
manually and then add the physical interface to the channel group. If a physical interface is already part of a
channel group, the CLI will not accept the mlsipdirected-broadcast configuration command on that physical
interface.
Examples This example shows how to forward the IP-directed broadcast packet in the hardware to all hosts in the VLAN
with the exception of the router:
Router(config-if)#
mls ip directed-broadcast exclude-router
Router(config-if)#
This example shows how to forward the IP-directed broadcast packet in the hardware to all hosts in the VLAN:

12.2(33)XNE This command was modified. This command was implemented on the
Cisco 10000 router.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5 This command was modified. This command was implemented on the
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers.
Usage Guidelines Cisco IOS Release 12.2S and 7600 Series Routers
SSO is not supported on Cisco 7600 series routers that are configured with a Supervisor Engine 2.
On releases prior to Release 12.2(17d)SXB, single router mode (SRM) with SSO redundancy does not support
stateful switchover for multicast traffic. When a switchover occurs, all multicast hardware switching entries
are removed and are then re-created and reinstalled in the hardware by the newly active multilayer switch
feature card (MSFC).
SRM/SSO is supported in the following releases only:
Release 12.2(17b)SXA and subsequent rebuilds.
Release 12.2(17d)SXB and subsequent rebuilds.
Nonstop forwarding (NSF) with SSO redundancy mode supports IPv4. NSF with SSO redundancy mode does
not support IPv6, Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX), and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS).
If you have configured MPLS on the Cisco 7600 series routers with redundant supervisor engines, you must
configure the Cisco 7600 series router in RPR mode. The switch should not be running in the default mode
of SSO.
Enter the redundancy command in global configuration mode to enter redundancy configuration mode. You
can enter the mode command within redundancy configuration mode.
Follow these guidelines when configuring your system for RPR+ mode:
You must install compatible images on the active and standby supervisor engines to support RPR+ mode
and SSO mode.
Both supervisor engines must run the same Cisco IOS software version.
Any modules that are not online at the time of a switchover are reset and reloaded on a switchover.
The Forwarding Information Base (FIB) tables are cleared on a switchover. As a result, routed traffic
is interrupted until route tables reconverge.
The standby supervisor engine reloads on any change of mode and begins to work in the current mode. When
you use this command to force the standby supervisor engine to run as a Distributed Forwarding Card (DFC)
card, the uplink ports in the standby engine continue to be in use and are not disabled.
Cisco IOS Release XE Release 2.5 and ASR 1000 Series Routers
For Cisco ASR 1002 and 1004 routers, RRP and stateful switchover can be used to switch between Cisco IOS
processes. RPR and SSO need to be configured by the user, however, because a second Cisco IOS process is
not available by default on Cisco ASR 1002 and 1004 routers. Enter the redundancy command in global
configuration mode to enter redundancy configuration mode. You can enter the mode command within
redundancy configuration mode.
The Cisco ASR 1006 Router supports a second Route Processor. The second Cisco IOS process can run only
on the standby Route Processor. This means that hardware redundancy is available and RPR and SSO do not
need to be configured by the user because a second Cisco IOS process is available by default on the Cisco
ASR 1006 router.
RPR+ mode is not supported on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers.
Cisco IOS Release 12.2XNE and 1000 Series Routers
Enter the redundancy command in global configuration mode to enter redundancy configuration mode. You
can enter the mode command within redundancy configuration mode.
RPR mode is not supported on the Cisco 10000 router.
Examples This example shows how to set the redundancy mode to RPR+:
Router(config)# redundancy
Router(config-red)# mode rpr-plus
This example shows how to set the redundancy mode to SSO:
Router(config)# redundancy
Router(config-red)# mode sso

mode {atm [aim aim-slot]| cas| t1| e1}
no mode {atm [aim aim-slot]| cas| t1| e1}
Syntax Description atm Sets the controller into ATM mode and creates an
ATM interface (ATM 0). When ATM mode is
enabled, no channel groups, DS0 groups, PRI groups,
or time-division multiplexing (TDM) groups are
allowed, because ATM occupies all the DS0s on the
T1/E1 trunk.
When you set the controller to ATM mode, the
controller framing is automatically set to extended
super frame (ESF) for T1 or cyclic redundancy check
type 4 (CRC4) for E1. The line code is automatically
set to binary 8-zero substitution (B8ZS) for T1 or
high-density bipolar C (HDBC) for E1. When you
remove ATM mode by entering the nomodeatm
command, ATM interface 0 is deleted.
Note The modeatm command without the aim
keyword uses software to perform ATM
segmentation and reassembly (SAR). This
is supported on Cisco 2600 series WIC slots
only; it is not supported on network module
slots.
aim (Optional) The configuration on this controller uses
the Advanced Integration Module (AIM) in the
specified slot for ATM SAR. The aim keyword does
not apply to the Cisco IAD2430 series IAD.
12.1(5)XM Support for this command was extended to the merged SGCP/MGCP software.
12.2(2)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)T.
12.2(8)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T for the Cisco
IAD2420.
Release Modification
12.2(2)XB Support was extended to the Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3660. The keyword
aim and the argument aim-slot were added. The parenthetical modifier for the
command was changed from Voice over ATM to T1/E1 controller.
12.2(15)T This command was implemented on the Cisco 2691 and the Cisco 3700 series.
12.3(4)XD This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)XD on Cisco 2600
series and Cisco 3700 series routers to configure DSL Frame mode and to add
T1/E1 Framed support.
12.3(4)XG This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)XG on the Cisco
1700 series routers.
12.3(7)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)T on Cisco 2600
series and Cisco 3700 series routers.
12.3(11)T This command was implemented on Cisco 2800 and Cisco 3800 series routers.
Usage Guidelines When a DSL controller is configured in ATM mode, the mode must be configured identically on both the CO
and CPE sides. Both sides must be set to ATM mode.
Note If using the nomodeatm command to leave ATM mode, the router must be rebooted immediately to clear
the mode.
When configuring a DSL controller in T1 or E1 mode, the mode must be configured identically on the CPE
and CO sides.
Examples
Examples The following example configures ATM mode on the DSL controller.

12.2(14)S This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(14)S.
12.2(15)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)T.
Usage Guidelines The mode selected by the mode command in redundancy configuration mode must be fully supported by the
image that has been installed in both the active and standby Route Switch Processors (RSPs). A high availability
image must be installed in the RSPs before RPR+ can be configured. Use thehw-moduleslotimagecommand
to specify a high availability image to run on the standby RSP.
If the mode cannot be set on both RSPs, HSA is the default mode. A Cisco 7507 or Cisco 7513 router that
has only one RSP installed operates in single Route Processor mode.
Examples The following example enters redundancy configuration mode and sets RPR+ as the redundancy mode for a
Cisco 7500 series router.
Router(config)# redundancy
Router(config-r)# mode rpr-plus
Router(config-r)# end

Related Commands
Command Description
show chassis Displays, for a router with two RSCs, information
about mode (handover-split or classic-split), RSC
configuration, and slot ownership.
show chassis clocks Displays all configured clock sources, even those
from non-owned cards. This is because only one RSC
can provide the master clock, and it may need to have
backup clock sources configured from all cards
present, regardless of ownership.
Syntax Description atm Sets the controller into ATM mode and creates an
ATM interface (ATM 0). When ATM mode is
enabled, no channel groups, DS0 groups, PRI groups,
or time-division multiplexing (TDM) groups are
allowed, because ATM occupies all the DS0s on the
T1/E1 trunk.
When you set the controller to ATM mode, the
controller framing is automatically set to extended
super frame (ESF) for T1 or cyclic redundancy check
type 4 (CRC4) for E1. The line code is automatically
set to binary 8-zero substitution (B8ZS) for T1 or
high-density bipolar C (HDB3) for E1. When you
remove ATM mode by entering the no mode atm
command, ATM interface 0 is deleted.
On the Cisco MC3810, ATM mode is supported only
on controller 0 (T1 or E1 0).
Note The mode atm command without the aim
keyword uses software to perform ATM
segmentation and reassembly (SAR). This
is supported on Cisco 2600 series WIC slots
only and is not supported on network module
slots.
aim (Optional) The configuration on this controller uses
the Advanced Integration Module (AIM) in the
specified slot for ATM SAR. The aim keyword does
not apply to the Cisco MC3810 and the Cisco
IAD2420 series IAD.
12.1(5)XM Support for this command was extended to Simple Gateway Control Protocol
(SGCP) and Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP).
12.2(2)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)T and implemented
on the Cisco 7200 series.
12.2(2)XB Support was extended to the Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3660. The aimkeyword
and the aim-slot argument were added. The parenthetical modifier for the
command was changed from "Voice over ATM" to "T1/E1 controller."
12.2(11)T This command was implemented on the Cisco AS5300 and Cisco AS5850.
12.2(15)T This command was implemented on the Cisco 2691 and the Cisco 3700 series.
Release Modification
12.3(4)XD Support was extended on Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3700 series routers to
configure DSL Frame mode and to add T1/E1 Framed support.
12.3(7)T The support that was added in Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)XD was integrated into
Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)T.
Usage Guidelines This command has the following platform-specific usage guidelines:
Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 3660 routers, or Cisco 3700 series that use an AIM for ATM processing must
use the mode atm aimaim-slot command.
Cisco 2600 series routers that use an AIM for DSP processing and specify DS0 groups must use the
mode cas command if they are using WIC slots for voice. This command does not apply if network
modules are being used.
Cisco 3660 routers or Cisco 3700 series that use an AIM only for DSP resources should not use this
command.
On Cisco 2600 series routers that use WIC slots for voice, the mode atm command without the aim
keyword specifies software ATM segmentation and reassembly. When the aim keyword is used with
the mode atm command, the AIM performs ATM segmentation and reassembly.
Cisco MC3810 routers cannot use the aim keyword.
Cisco MC3810 routers with digital voice modules (DVMs) use some DS0s exclusively for different
signaling modes. The DS0 channels have the following limitations when mixing different applications
(such as voice and data) on the same network trunk:
On E1 controllers, DS0 16 is used exclusively for either CAS or common channel signaling (CCS),
depending on which mode is configured.
On T1 controllers, DS0 24 is used exclusively for CCS.
Cisco MC3810--When no mode is selected, channel groups and clear channels (data mode) can be
created using the channel group and tdm-group commands, respectively.
Cisco MC3810 is not supported in the AIM-ATM, AIM-VOICE-30, and AIM-ATM-VOICE-30 on the
Cisco 2600 Series, Cisco 3660, and Cisco 3700 Series feature.
On Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3700 series routers when configuring a DSL controller in ATM mode,
the mode must be set to the same mode on both the CO and CPE sides. Both sides must be set to ATM
mode.
If the no mode atm command is used to leave ATM mode, the router must be rebooted immediately
to clear the mode.
On Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3700 series routers when configuring a DSL controller in T1 or E1
mode, the mode must be configured identically on the CO and CPE sides.
Examples The following example configures ATM mode on controller T1 0. This step is required for Voice over ATM.
Router(config)# controller
T1 0
Router(config-controller)# mode atm
The following example configures ATM mode on controller T1 1/ 0 on a Cisco 2600 series router using an
AIM in slot 0 for ATM segmentation and reassembly:
Router(config)# controller
t1 1/0
Router(config-controller)# mode atm aim 0
The following example configures CAS mode on controller T1 1 on a Cisco 2600 series router:

mode bypass
To enable Virtual Multipoint Interfaces (VMI) to support multicast traffic, use the modebypass command in
interface configuration mode. To return the interface to the default mode of aggregate, use the no form of this
command.
12.4(15)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T to support
multicast traffic on Virtual Multipoint Interfaces (VMIs).
Usage Guidelines Use the mode bypass command when you need to support multicast traffic in router-to-radio configurations.
Aggregate Mode
The default mode for operation of the VMI is aggregate mode. In aggregate mode, all of the virtual-access
interfaces created by PPPoE sessions are logically aggregated under the VMI. As such, applications above
Layer 2, such as, EIGRP and OSPFv3, should be defined on the VMI interface only. Packets sent to the VMI
will be correctly forwarded to the correct virtual-access interface.
Bypass Mode
Using bypass mode is recommended for multicast applications.
In bypass mode, the virtual-access interfaces are directly exposed to applications running above Layer2. In
bypass mode, definition of a VMI is still required because the VMI will continue to manage presentation of
cross-layer signals, such as, neighbor up, neighbor down, and metrics. However, applications will still be
aware on the actual underlying virtual-access interfaces and send packets to them directly.
Using bypass mode can cause databases in the applications to be larger because knowledge of more interfaces
are required for normal operation.
After you enter the modebypass command, Cisco recommends that you copy the running configuration to
NVRAM. because the default mode of operation for VMI is to logically aggregate the virtual-access interfaces.

modem dtr-delay
To control the time that a data terminal ready (DTR) signal is held down when a line clears, use the
modemdtr-delay command in line configuration mode. To restore the default hold down time, use the no
form of this command.
Command Default The default DTR signal hold down time is 5 seconds.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Use this command to reduce the time that a DTR signal is held down after an asynchronous line clears and
before the DTR signal is raised again to accept new calls. Incoming calls may be rejected in heavily loaded
systems even when modems are unused because the default DTR hold down interval may be too long.
Themodemdtr-delay command is designed for lines used for an unframed asynchronous session such as
Telnet. Lines used for a framed asynchronous session such as PPP should use the pulse-time interface
command.
Examples The following example shows how to specify a DTR hold down interval of 2 seconds:
Router(config)# line 7
Router(config-line)# modem dtr-delay 2
Related Commands
Command Description
pulse-time Enables pulsing DTR signal intervals on serial

monitoring
To enable monitoring of all optical transceivers and to specify the time period for monitoring the transceivers,
use the monitoringcommand in transceiver type configuration mode. To disable the monitoring, use the no
form of this command.
Syntax Description interval seconds (Optional) Specifies the time interval for monitoring
optical transceivers; valid range is 300 to 3600, in
seconds, and the default interval time is 600.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
15.2(2)SNI This command was implemented on the Cisco ASR 901 Series
Aggregation Services Routers.
Usage Guidelines You need digital optical monitoring (DOM) feature and transceiver module compatibility information to
configure the monitoring command. Refer to the compatibility matrix to get the lists of Cisco platforms and
minimum required software versions to support Gigabit Ethernet transceiver modules.
Gigabit Ethernet Transceivers transmit and receive Ethernet frames at a rate of a gigabit per second, as defined
by the IEEE 802.3-2008 standard. Cisco's Gigabit Ethernet Transceiver modules support Ethernet applications
across all Cisco switching and routing platforms. These pluggable transceivers offer a convenient and cost
effective solution for the adoption in data center, campus, metropolitan area access and ring networks, and
storage area networks.
The monitoring command helps you to enable DOM feature and to evaluate threshold violations for all
transceiver types. The intervalkeyword enables you to change the default polling interval.For example, if
you set the interval as 1500 seconds, this setting causes a delay (of 1500 seconds) for the trap to be sent out
by the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) manager running on Cisco IOS software.
Examples This example shows how to enable monitoring of optical transceivers and set the interval time for monitoring
to 1500 seconds:
Router(config-xcvr-type)# no monitoring

Cisco IOS XE Release 2.4 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 2.4. This command
supports the xconnect subinterface configuration mode.
Usage Guidelines Each interface has a default maximum packet size or MTU size. This number generally defaults to the largest
size possible for that interface type. On serial interfaces, the MTU size varies but cannot be set to a value less
than 64 bytes.
Note The connect configuration mode is used only for Frame Relay Layer 2 interworking.
On the Cisco 7600 platform, the following valid values are applicable:
For the SVI ports: from 64 to 9216 bytes
For the GE-WAN+ ports: from 1500 to 9170 bytes
For all other ports: from 1500 to 9216 bytes
You can receive jumbo frames on access subinterfaces also. The MTU values can be configured to any range
that is supported by the corresponding main interface. If you enable the jumbo frames, the default is 64 bytes
for the SVI ports and 9216 bytes for all other ports. The jumbo frames are disabled by default.
Cisco uBR10012 Universal Broadband Router
While configuring the interface MTU size on a Gigabit Ethernet SPA on a Cisco uBR10012 router, consider
the following guidelines:
The default interface MTU size accommodates a 1500-byte packet, plus 22 additional bytes to cover
the following overhead:
Layer 2 header--14 bytes
Dot1Q header--4 bytes
CRC--4 bytes
If you are using MPLS, be sure that the mplsmtu command is configured with a value less than or equal
to the interface MTU.
If you are using MPLS labels, you should increase the default interface MTU size to accommodate the
number of MPLS labels. Each MPLS label adds 4 bytes of overhead to a packet.
Note For the Gigabit Ethernet SPAs on the Cisco uBR10012 router, the default MTU size is 1500 bytes. When
the interface is being used as a Layer 2 port, the maximum configurable MTU is 9000 bytes.
Examples The following example shows how to specify an MTU of 1000 bytes:

Release Modification
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
12.2(33)SCB This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCB.
Usage Guidelines The negotiationcommand is applicable to the Gigabit Ethernet interface of the Cisco 7200-I/O-GE+E and
interfaces on the 2-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet SPA that are using fiber media. The
negotiationautocommand is used instead of the duplex and speed commands (which are used on Ethernet
and Fast Ethernet interfaces, and interfaces on the 2-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet SPA that are using
RJ-45 media) to automatically configure the duplex and speed settings of the interfaces.
The negotiationforced command is used to configure the Gigabit Ethernet interface of the Cisco
7200-I/O-GE+E to be 1000/full-duplex only and to disable flow control. The negotiationforced command
is not supported by the 2-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet SPA.
The Gigabit Ethernet interface of the Cisco 7200-I/O-GE+E and the interfaces on the 2-port 10/100/1000
Gigabit Ethernet SPA that are using fiber media are restricted to 1000 Mbps/full-duplex only. Autonegotiation
advertises and negotiates only to these values.
The nonegotiationauto command is used to disable the autonegotiation in the Cisco 3800 series routers. If
the speed is set to 1000 Mbps and full-duplex is set for the Gigabit Ethernet interface in small form-factor
pluggable (SFP) mode, then the autonegotiation is disabled (forced mode) using the nonegotiationauto
command.
However, for RJ-45 media the autonegotiation is always enabled for fixed speed and duplex setting. For SFP
mode of operation, the autonegotiation can be disabled by using the nonegotiationauto command.
Cisco uBR10012 Universal Broadband Router
Autonegotiation is enabled by default and can be disabled on the 5-port Gigabit Ethernet SPA. During
autonegotiation, advertisement for flow control, speed, and duplex occurs. If autonegotiation is disabled on
one end of a link, it must be disabled on the other end of the link. If one end of a link has autonegotiation
disabled and the other end of the link does not, the link does not come up properly on both ends. Flow control
is always negotiated when autonegotiation is enabled.
Note Autonegotiation is not supported on the 1-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet SPA in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCB.
Examples The following example shows how to enable the second interface (port 1) on a 2-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit
Ethernet SPA for autonegotiation, where the SPA is installed in the bottom subslot (1) of the modular services
card (MSC), and the MSC is installed in slot 2 of the Cisco 7304 router:
The following example shows how to disable the second interface (port 1) on a 2-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit

To specify the type of tunnel signaling and encapsulation mechanism for each Virtual Private LAN Service
(VPLS) peer, use the neighbor command in L2 VFI manual configuration mode. To disable a split horizon,
use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description remote-router-id Remote peer router identifier. The remote router ID
can be any IP address, as long as it is reachable.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2(33)SRB This command was modified. This command was updated so that the
remote router ID need not be the LDP router ID of the peer.
Cisco IOS XE Release XE 3.7S This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release XE 3.7S.
Usage Guidelines In a full-mesh VPLS network, keep split horizon enabled to avoid looping.
With the introduction of VPLS Autodiscovery, the remote router ID no longer needs to be the LDP router ID.
The address that you specify can be any IP address on the peer, as long as it is reachable. When VPLS
Autodiscovery discovers peer routers for the VPLS, the peer router addresses might be any routable address.
Examples This example shows how to specify the tunnel encapsulation type:
Device(config-vfi)# l2 vfi vfi-1 manual
Device(config-vfi)# vpn 1
Device(config-vfi)# neighbor 172.16.10.2 4 encapsulation mpls

overhead j0
To specify the Regenerator Section (RS) Trace identifier (J0), use the overheadj0 command in controller
configuration mode. To restore the default value, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description transmit Specifies that the string argument is sent on the
transmit line.
12.2(15)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)T, and the
transmit and receive keywords were added.
Usage Guidelines RS trace is a maintenance feature of SONET. One byte (J0) of the Section overhead associated with each
SONET frame is used to carry information identifying the transmitting equipment.
Use this command for peer authentication and continuity testing between two STM-1 optical peers. If the
authentication string sent by the originating peer does not match the configured string on the receiving peer,
the SONET controller will not come up on the receiving peer. Alarm logs on the originating peer will show
that it has RS-Trace Identifier Mismatch (RS-TIM).
Examples The following example shows how to configure J0 overhead in both the transmit and receive directions on a
STM-1 trunk card:
overhead j1
To configure the message length and the message text of the High Order Path Trace identifier (J1), use the
overheadj1 command in controller configuration or path configuration mode. To restore the default value,
use the no form of this command.
Command Default The default message length is 16 for SDH framing and 64 for SONET framing. No peer authentication is
performed.
12.2(15)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)T, and the
transmit-message and receive-message keywords were added.
Usage Guidelines Path trace is a maintenance feature of SONET/SDH. One byte (J1) of the Path overhead associated with each
path in the SONET/SDH frame is used to carry information identifying the originating Path Terminating
Equipment (PTE).
Where you configure the Path Trace identifier depends on the framing (SDH or SONET) and the AUG
mapping. In SDH with AU-4 mapping, the Path Trace identifier is configured at the SONET controller level.
In SDH with AU-3 mapping or in SONET framing, the Path Trace identifier is configured at the path level.
In accordance with SONET and SDH standard requirements, the Path Trace message you enter is manipulated
as follows:
If you select a message length of 16, the actual message length can be up to 15 characters. An additional
byte, prepended to the message, contains the result of a CRC7 calculated on the message. If the actual
message text is fewer than 15 characters, the message text is padded to its full length with NULL
characters.
If you select a message length of 64 and the actual message text is fewer than 62 characters, the message
text is padded with NULL characters. The last two byte positions, 63 and 64, are always CR/LF
(0x0D/0x0A).
Use this command for peer authentication and continuity testing between two STM-1 optical peers. If the
authentication string sent by the originating peer does not match the configured string on the receiving peer,
the Path (and all E1 controllers within the path) will not come up on the receiving peer. Alarm logs on the
originating peer will show that it has High Order Path-Trace Identifier Mismatch (HP-TIM).
Examples The following example shows J1 configuration in SDH framing with AU-4 AUG mapping. The
overheadj1command sets the message length to 16, and specifies the message text as metro_SF:
Router(config-controller)# au-4 1
Router(config-ctrlr-au4)# overhead j1 length 16 transmit-message metro_SF
The following example shows J1 configuration in SDH framing with AU-3 AUG mapping. The overheadj1
command sets the message length to 16, and specifies the message text as metro_LA:
password password
12.4(15)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T.
Usage Guidelines The NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module has a factory-supplied unique default password to enter satellite
initial configuration mode for initial configuration. During this configuration, the password command is used
to set a user-defined password for subsequent entries to satellite initial configuration mode. The user-defined
password consists of up to 32 alphanumeric characters.

15.1(2)SNG This command was implemented on Cisco ASR 901 Series Aggregation
Services Routers.
Usage Guidelines Use this command to configure the size of each CEoIP packet. Smaller sizes reduce delay but diminish
efficiency.
Note The payload size must be a multiple of the number of time slots and 16. The payload size entered by the
user will be automatically changed to match the above requirement, and a console message will inform
the user of this change.
The Cisco ASR 901 series router only supports a payload size of 486 (625 packets per second) or 243 (1250
packets per second).
Examples The following example shows how to configure a payload size of 224.

physical-layer
To specify the mode of a slow-speed serial interface on a router as either synchronous or asynchronous, use
the physical-layer command in interface configuration mode. To return the interface to the default mode of
synchronous, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description sync Places the interface in synchronous mode. This is the
default.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command applies only to low-speed serial interfaces available on Cisco 2520 through Cisco 2523 series
routers.
In synchronous mode, low-speed serial interfaces support all interface configuration commands available for
high-speed serial interfaces, except the following two commands:
half-duplex timer cts-delay
half-duplex timer rts-timeout
When placed in asynchronous mode, low-speed serial interfaces support all commands available for standard
asynchronous interfaces.
When you enter this command, it does not appear in the output of moresystem:running-config and
morenvram:startup-config commands because the command is a physical-layer command.
Examples The following example shows how to change a low-speed serial interface from synchronous to asynchronous
mode:

platform console
To select the console that is used to access the virtual router interface, use the platform console command in
global configuration mode.
Syntax Description serial Specifies that the virtual router is accessed using the virtual serial port on the
ESXi host.
virtual Specifies that the virtual router is accessed using the VMware VM console.
Usage Guidelines During the first-time installation and bootup of the virtual router, you choose whether to access the virtual
router using the VM console or the virtual serial port on the ESXi host. The default setting is to use the VM
console.
This command is used for changing the console access to the virtual router after first-time installation and
bootup. After you enter the command, you must reload or power-cycle the router in order for the new setting
to take effect.
Examples The following example configures the virtual router to be accessed through the VM console:
Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# platform console virtual
Router(config)# end
Router# copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config
Router# reload
The following example configures the virtual router to be accessed through the virtual serial port:

Router(config)# platform console serial
Router(config)# end
Router# copy system:running-config nvram:startup-config
Router# reload
Command Default ACLs are not applied to packets that are software-switched between WAN cards and the route processor.
ACLs are applied only to packets that are hardware-switched between WAN cards and the route processor.
12.2(33)SXI2 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXI2.
Usage Guidelines By default, software-switched WAN packets are not subjected to ACL lookup in the ACL TCAM and are
therefore not affected by hardware-only features. As a result, VACL capture will fail for software-switched
WAN packets. The platformcwanaclsoftware-switchedcommand allows ACLs to be applied to ingress or
egress software-switched WAN packets.
When you use the platformcwanaclsoftware-switchedcommand to allow VACL capture, these limitations
apply:
Examples This example shows how to enable ACLs for software-switched ingress WAN packets:
Router(config)#
platform cwan acl software-switched ingress
Related Commands
Command Description

Command Default The default maximum throughput level is determined by the installed base license.
Cisco IOS XE 3.10S The command was updated to change the keywords to units in Mbps, and
support for maximum throughput values of 100 Mbps, 250 Mbps, 500
Mbps, and 1 Gbps was added.
Usage Guidelines The Cisco CSR 1000V requires the installation of base licenses that set the maximum throughput of the
platform.
Depending on the configuration and the licenses installed, you may need to manually increase or decrease the
maximum throughput level on the Cisco CSR 1000V. The maximum throughput on the router before the
license is activated, or if the license is invalidated, is 2.5 Mbps. When you install the base subscription license
and accept the EULA, the maximum throughput on the Cisco CSR 1000V will increase to the level allowed
by the license.
You may need to manually change the maximum throughput level in the following cases:
If you are using an evaluation license. When the evaluation license is first installed, the maximum
throughput is limited to 2.5 Mbps before the license is activated. You must accept the EULA and enter
the platform hardware throughput levelcommand to increase the maximum throughput. When the
60-day evaluation license expires, the maximum throughput level reverts to 2.5 Mbps.
If you want to reduce the maximum throughput level from the maximum permitted by the installed
licenses. For example, if you have the 50-Mbps license installed and you want to reduce the maximum
throughput to 25 Mbps. You must enter the platform hardware throughput level command to reduce
the maximum throughput.
If you previously changed the maximum throughput using the platform hardware throughput level
command. When you enter the command, it becomes part of the configuration file. You must enter the
command again to change the maximum throughput level.
When changing the maximum throughput level, you do not need to reboot the Cisco CSR 1000V for the
change to take effect. If you try to increase the throughput level higher than what the installed license supports,
you will receive an error message.
Examples The following example changes the maximum throughput level to 500 Mbps:
Router(config)# platform hardware throughput level MB 500
The following example changes the maximum throughput level to the default level supported by the installed
license:
Router(config)# no platform hardware throughput level
Syntax Description access-group ip-acl-name (Optional) Specifies the name of the ACL that is used
to specify the match criteria for the recirculation
packets.
Command Default IP precedence-based or DSCP-based egress QoS filtering uses received IP precedence or DSCP values and
does not use any IP precedence or DSCP changes made by ingress QoS as the result of policing or marking.
12.2(18)SXE Support for this command was introduced on the Supervisor Engine
720.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines
Caution If the switch is operating in PFC3A mode with egress ACL support for remarked DSCP configured, when
the PFC3 processes traffic to apply ingress PFC QoS, it applies ingress PFC QoS filtering and ingress
PFC QoS, and incorrectly applies any egress QoS filtering and egress PFC QoS configured on the ingress
interface, which results in unexpected behavior if QoS filtering is configured on an interface where egress
ACL support for remarked DSCP is enabled. This problem does not occur in other PFC3 modes.
The enhanced egress-QoS filtering enables the IP precedence-based or DSCP-based egress-QoS filtering to
use any IP precedence or DSCP policing or marking changes made by ingress QoS.
The nonenhanced egress-QoS filtering behavior is the normal Cisco 7600 series router or the Catalyst 6500
series switch behavior when QoS is applied in the hardware.
The PFC3 provides egress PFC QoS only for Layer 3-switched and routed traffic on egress Layer 3 interfaces
(either LAN ports configured as Layer 3 interfaces or VLAN interfaces).
You configure enhanced egress QoS filtering on ingress Layer 3 interfaces (either LAN ports configured as
Layer 3 interfaces or VLAN interfaces).
To enable enhanced egress QoS filtering only for the traffic filtered by a specific standard, extended named,
or extended numbered IP ACL, enter the IP ACL name or number.
If you do not enter an IP ACL name or number, enhanced egress QoS filtering is enabled for all IP ingress IP
traffic on the interface.
Note When you configure enhanced egress-QoS filtering, the PFC3A processes traffic to apply ingress PFC
QoS. The PFC3A applies ingress-QoS filtering and Cisco 7600 series router or the Catalyst 6500 series
switch hardware ingress QoS. The PFC3A incorrectly applies any egress-QoS filtering and Cisco 7600
series router or the Catalyst 6500 series switch hardware egress QoS that is configured on the ingress
interface.
Note If you configure enhanced egress-QoS filtering on an interface that uses Layer 2 features to match the IP
precedence or DSCP as modified by ingress-QoS marking, the packets are redirected or dropped and
prevented from being processed by egress QoS.
Note If you enable enhanced egress-QoS filtering, the hardware acceleration of NetFlow-based features such
as reflexive ACL, NAT, and TCP intercept are disabled.
Examples The following example shows how to enable enhanced egress-QoS filtering:
Router(config-if)#
The following example shows how to disable enhanced egress-QoS filtering:

platform punt-keepalive
To enable the Punt-Keepalive feature and monitor the status of the punt path between the forwarding processor
(FP) and the route processor (RP), use the platform punt-keepalive command in the global configuration
mode. To disable the Punt-Keepalive feature, use the no form of this command.
no platform punt-keepalive
Syntax Description disable-kernel-core Disables Linux kernel crash generation and IOS
Daemon (IOSD) crash generation.
Command Default The Punt-Keepalive feature is enabled, and the Kernel core crash and IOSD crash generation are enabled.
Usage Guidelines The platform punt-keepalive command is available only if all the following conditions are met:
Device is in an active state.
FP is present and is online.
System reload is not in progress.
The punt-keepalive process checks the status of the device and the FP every 30 seconds. However, when the
status for the device changes from standby to active, or when the FP goes online, the device waits for another
30 seconds before sending the first keepalive message. Disabling the Linux kernel crash generation and IOS
Daemon (IOSD) crash generation allows the system to settle down after the occurrence of critical events.
IOSD or Kernel driver code can cause a keepalive failure; a keepalive failure can force IOSD crash generation
and Linux kernel crash generation. The crash generation type depends on the chassis and the operating mode.
The following table describes the relationship between chassis, operation mode, and type of crash generation.
Table 26: Relationship Between Chassis, Operation Mode, and Type of Crash Generation
Kernel core crash generation takes approximately five minutes. Disable kernel core crash generation for a
faster reboot of the system.

level level Selects the trace level. The trace level determines the
amount of information that is to be stored about a
module in the trace buffer or file.
Valid options are:
max --Provides the maximum possible message.
notice messages --Provides notice messages.
Command Default The default tracing level for every module on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers is Notice.
Usage Guidelines Trace-level settings are leveled that is every setting contains all the messages from the lower setting plus the
messages from its own setting. For instance, setting the trace level to 3 (error) ensures that the trace file
contains all the output for the 0 (emergencies), 1 (alerts), 2 (critical), and 3 (error) settings. Setting the trace
level to 4 (warning) ensures that all the trace output for a specific module is included in that trace file.
All trace levels cannot be configured by users. Specifically, the alert, critical, and notice tracing levels cannot
be set by users. To trace these messages, set the trace level to a higher level, which collects these messages.
When setting the trace levels, it is also important to remember that the setting is not done in a configuration
mode. As a result of this, trace level settings are returned to their defaults after every router reload.
Caution Setting tracing of a module to the debug level or higher can have a negative performance impact. Setting
tracing to the debug level or higher should be done with discretion.
Caution Setting a large number of modules to high tracing levels can severely degrade performance. If a high level
of tracing is needed in a specific context, it is almost always preferable to set a single module on a higher
tracing level rather than setting multiple modules to high tracing levels.
Examples In the following example, the trace level for the forwarding processor module in the Forwarding Manager of
the ESP processor in slot R0 is set to the informational tracing level (max):

12.2(33)SRC This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRC.
Usage Guidelines The EtherChannel load distribution algorithm uses the bundle select register in the port ASIC to determine
the port for each outgoing packet. When you use the adaptive algorithm, it does not require the bundle select
register to be changed for existing member ports. When you use the fixed algorithm and you either add or
delete a port from the EtherChannel, the switch updates the bundle select register for each port in the
EtherChannel. This update causes a short outage on each port.
Note When you change the algorithm, the change is applied at the next member link event. Example events
include link down, up, addition, deletion, no shutdown, and shutdown. When you enter the command to
change the algorithm, the command console issues a warning that the command does not take effect until
the next member link event.
Examples The following example shows how to set the hash distribution algorithm method to adaptive:
port-channel load-balance
To set the load distribution method among the ports in a bundle, use the port-channelload-balance command
in global configuration mode. To reset the load distribution to the default settings, use the no form of this
command.

interface configuration mode.
port-channel load-balance mpls Sets the load distribution method among the ports in
the bundle for MPLS packets.
port-channel load-balance {link link-id| weighted {default weight weight| link {all| link-id}| rebalance
{disable| weight}}}
no port-channel load-balance {link link-id| weighted {default weight| link| rebalance}}
Syntax Description link Configures a member link for egress load balancing.
Command Default Service instance weight and weighted load balancing are not configured.
Usage Guidelines When weighted load balancing enabled, the weight configured using this command is inherited by all service
instances on the port channel that have not been specifically configured with a weight.
Configuring a default weight is optional; the default weight value is 1.
Use of the weightedand link keywords is required to enable weighted load balancing on a port channel. When
the all keyword is configured, traffic is distributed across all active member links in the port channel. When
one or more member links is specified, traffic is distributed across only those member links. To allow for
out-of-order configuration, link IDs not yet assigned to member links may be specified. Issuing this command
with the weighted and link keywords more than once under the same port-channel interface results in
overwriting the command settings previously configured.
If this command is configured with a list of link IDs and the member link corresponding to one of those link
IDs is later configured with a different ID, a warning is displayed on the console that notifies the user that the
action will affect the current load-balancing activity.
When the disable keyword is configured, automatic rebalancing is not performed and the operator must
manually invoke rebalancing by issuing the port-channel load-balance weighted rebalancecommand in
privileged EXEC mode.
When the disable keyword is not configured, either the configured or a default weight is used to automatically
rebalance service instances. Automatic rebalancing occurs when the average absolute deviation (AAD) of the
current distribution exceeds the configured threshold and when the resulting AAD of the rebalanced distribution
is less than the current AAD. If automatic rebalancing does not result in a lower AAD, the rebalancing is not
done, even if the current AAD exceeds the threshold.
The AAD calculation is (1/n )*Sum(|w(i ) - m|) for all n member links where:
n = number of member links
m = mean of member link weights (sum of all Ethernet service instance weights divided by n )
w (i ) = sum of Ethernet service instance weights on member link i
Two conditions cause the port-channel load-balancecommand to fail:
An invalid weight is configured.
An invalid link ID is provided.
Examples The following example shows how to configure port-channel load balancing for all port-channel member
links:
Syntax Description label Specifies using the MPLS label to distribute packets;
see the Usage Guidelines section for additional

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines This command is not supported on Cisco 7600 series routers that are configured with a Supervisor Engine 2.
If you select label, these guidelines apply:
With only one MPLS label, the last MPLS label is used.
With two or more MPLS labels, the last two labels (up to the fifth label) are used.
With non-IPv4 packets, the distribution method is the same as the label method.
Examples This example shows how to set the load-distribution method to label-ip:
Router(config)#
port-channel load-balance mpls label-ip
Router(config)#

Command Description
interface port-channel Creates a port-channel virtual interface and enters
interface configuration mode.
Usage Guidelines If a port-channel interface is specified, only that interface is rebalanced; otherwise all port channels with
weighted load balancing enabled are rebalanced.
This command may be used when automatic rebalancing is disabled via the port-channel load-balance
weighted rebalance disable command or when a rebalancing of service instances is desired prior to reaching
the automatic rebalance threshold.
If the specified interface is not a port channel enabled for weighted load balancing, the port-channel
load-balance weighted rebalancecommand has no effect on load balancing on that interface.
Examples The following example shows how to force a rebalancing of service instances, based on their assigned weights,
for all port channels with weighted load balancing enabled:

Command Description
port-channel load-balance (interface) Configures a member link for load balancing, a
default service instance weight, or weighted load
balancing on port-channel member links.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5 This command was modified. The default was changed from no
load balancing is enabled to flow-based load balancing.
Usage Guidelines The port-channelload-balancingvlan-manual command applies the VLAN-manual load-balancing method
globally to all port channels on the router. If you do not use this command to explicitly set the global
load-balancing method to VLAN-manual, the load-balancing method is set to flow-based.
The load-balancing method enabled on a port channel with the load-balancingcommand takes precedence
over this command.
Load balancing uses the concept of buckets to map traffic flows to the member links of a port channel. The
different traffic flows are mapped to the buckets and each bucket has one active member link associated with
it. All flows that are mapped to a bucket use the member link associated with that bucket.
There are two methods of load balancing on a GEC interface:
VLAN-manual--All packets forwarded over the same VLAN subinterface are considered part of the
same flow and are mapped to the member link specified in the configuration.
Flow-based--Traffic flows are mapped to different member links based on the packet header.
Examples This example shows how to set the load-balancing method to VLAN-manual:
Router(config)# port-channel
load-balancing vlan-manual

port-channel load-defer
To configure the port load share deferral interval for all port channels, use the port-channelload-defer
command in global configuration mode. To reset the port defer interval to the default setting, use the no form
of this command.
Syntax Description seconds Sets the time interval in seconds by which load
sharing will be deferred on the switch. Valid range is
from 1 to 1800 seconds. The default deferal interval
is 120 seconds
12.2(50)SY This command was introduced. Added the seconds variable for use in
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(50)SY.
Usage Guidelines To reduce data loss following a stateful switchover (SSO), port load share deferral can be enabled by entering
the port-channelportload-defer command on a port channel of a switch that is connected by a multichassis
EtherChannel (MEC) to a virtual switching system (VSS). Port load share deferral temporarily prevents the
switch from forwarding data traffic to MEC member ports on a failed chassis of the VSS while the VSS
recovers from the SSO.
The load share deferral interval is determined by a single global timer configurable by the
port-channelload-defer command. After an SSO switchover, a period of several seconds to several minutes
can be required for the reinitialization of line cards and the reestablishment of forwarding tables, particularly
multicast topologies.
The valid range of seconds is 1 to 1800 seconds; the default is 120 seconds.
Examples This example shows how to set the global port deferral interval to 60 seconds:
Router(config)#
port-channel load-defer 60
Router(config)#

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines This command is supported on LACP (802.3ad) ports only. More than one LACP secondary-port channel can
belong to the same channel group. This command is applied to all port channels in the same group.
If fewer links than the specified number are available, the port-channel interface does not become active.
Use the showrunning-config command to verify the configuration.
Examples This example shows how to specify that a minimum number of bundled ports in an EtherChannel is required
before the channel can be active:
Router(config-if)#
port-channel min-links 3
Router(config-if)#

Command Default The load balance method is not enabled per module.
12.2(33)SXH This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXH.
Usage Guidelines The port-channelper-moduleload-balance command allows you to enable or disable port-channel load
balancing on a per-module basis. You can use the port-channelload-balancemodulecommand to specify the
load balancing method on a specific module after you have entered the port-channelper-moduleload-balance
command.
Examples The following example shows how to enable load balancing on a per-module basis:

Command Description
port-channel hash-distribution Sets the hash distribution algorithm method among
the ports in a bundle.
port-channel load-balance Sets the load balance method among the ports in a
bundle.
Command Default The port load share deferral feature is not enabled on a port channel .
Usage Guidelines To reduce data loss following a stateful switchover (SSO), a port load share deferral can be enabled on a port
channel of a switch that is connected by a multichassis EtherChannel (MEC) to a virtual switching system
(VSS). The load share deferral interval prevents the switch from forwarding data traffic to MEC member ports
on a failed chassis of the VSS while the VSS recovers from the SSO.
When load share deferral is enabled on a port channel, the assignment of a member ports load share is delayed
for a period that is configurable globally by the port-channelload-defer command. During the deferral period,
the load share of a deferred member port is set to 0. In this state, the deferred port is capable of receiving data
and control traffic, and of sending control traffic, but the port is prevented from sending data traffic over the
MEC to the VSS. Upon expiration of the global deferral timer, the deferred member port exits the deferral
state and the port assumes its normal configured load share.
Load share deferral is applied only if at least one other member port of the port channel is currently active
with a nonzero load share. If a port enabled for load share deferral is the first member bringing up the
EtherChannel, the deferral feature does not apply and the port will forward traffic immediately.
The load share deferral interval is determined by a single global timer configurable from 1 to 1800 seconds
by the port-channelload-defer command. The default interval is 120 seconds. After an SSO switchover, a
period of several seconds to several minutes can be required for the reinitialization of line cards and the
reestablishment of forwarding tables, particularly multicast topologies.
Examples This example shows how to enable the load share deferral feature on port channel 50 of a switch that is an
MEC peer to a VSS:
Router(config)#
interface port-channel 50
Router(config-if)#
port-channel port load-defer
This will enable the load share deferral feature on this port-channel.
The port-channel should connect to a Virtual Switch (VSS).

Usage Guidelines In Automatic Protection Switching (APS) environments, LAIS can be used to force a protection switch. This
command forces an APS switch when the interface is placed in the administrative shutdown state.
For more information on APS, refer to the Configuring Serial Interfaces chapter in the Cisco IOS Interface
and Hardware Component Configuration Guide.
This command does not have a no form.
Examples The following example forces the alarm indication on POS OC-3 interface 0 in slot 3:
Syntax Description line Specifies the delay for SONET line level triggers.
The following alarms are considered line level
triggers: section loss of signal, section loss of frame,
line alarm indication signal. SONET line level triggers
bring the line protocol down by default
Command Default POS line level alarm triggers are enabled by default. If a POS line level alarm trigger occurs and no
configuration changes have been made using theposdelaytriggerslinemscommand, the line protocol is set to
down immediately with no delay.
POS path level alarm triggers are disabled by default. A path level alarm will not set the line protocol to down
unless the posdelaytriggerspath command has been entered.
If no ms value is entered but posdelaytriggersline command is configured, the default ms value for line level
triggers is 100 ms.
If no ms value is entered and posdelaytriggerspath is enabled, the default ms value is set at 100 ms for path
level triggers.

12.4 This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.4 Mainline. This
command supports Cisco 7200 Series, Cisco 7304 Series, and Cisco 7600 Series
routers.
12.4(24)T This command was integrated into a release earlier than Cisco IOS Release
12.4(24)T. This command supports Cisco 7200 Series, Cisco 7304 Series, and
Cisco 7600 Series routers.
Usage Guidelines A trigger is an alarm that, when asserted, causes the line protocol to go down.
When one or more triggers are asserted, the line protocol of the interface goes down. The POS Alarm Trigger
Delay feature provides the option to delay triggering of the line protocol of the interface from going down
when an alarm triggers the line protocol to go down. For instance, if you configure the POS alarm delay for
150 ms, the line protocol will not go down for 150 ms after receiving the trigger. If the trigger alarm stays up
for more than 150 ms, the link is brought down as it is now. If the trigger alarm clears before 150 ms, the line
protocol is not brought down.
By default, the following line and section alarms are triggers for the line protocol to go down:
Section loss of signal
Section loss of frame
Line alarm indication signal
For line and section alarm triggers, the line protocol of the POS card is brought down immediately if a trigger
is received and no POS alarm trigger delay is specified. The delay can be set anywhere from 50 to 10000 ms.
If POS alarm triggering is configured but no ms value is entered, the POS alarm trigger delay is 100 ms.
The following path alarms are not triggers by default. These path alarms, however, can be configured as
triggers:
Path alarm indication signal
Path remote defect indication
The POS Alarm Trigger Delay feature can be used to configure these alarms as triggers, as well as to configure
the exact POS alarm trigger delay for these triggers. The default delay values for these triggers, if no value is
specified, is also 100 ms.
Examples In the following configuration example, the POS line card will wait 50 ms after receiving a line level trigger
before setting the line protocol to down. If the alarm that began the line level trigger clears during that 50 ms,
the line protocol will remain up. If the alarm that began the line trigger remains after that 50 ms, the line
protocol will go down.

Usage Guidelines Use the following values to tell the SONET transmission equipment the payload type:
For PPP, or High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) when required, use 0xCF (this is the default).
For ATM, use 0x13.
For other equipment, use any nonzero value.
The byte value can be 0 to 255.
Examples The following example sets the path signal identifier used to identify the payload content type to ATM on the
pos interface in slot 9:
Usage Guidelines The pos flag s1-byte rx-communicate command directs the router to switch the clock source to internal when
it receives an S1 SONET overhead byte with a value of 0xF. When the S1 SONET overhead byte changes
from 0xF to any other value, the clock source reverts back to the clock source specified in the user configuration.
The S1 SONET overhead byte is ignored by the receiving router unless the pos flag s1-byte rx-communicate

12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Reporting an alarm means that the alarm can be logged to the console. Just because an alarm is permitted to
be logged does not guarantee that it is logged. SONET alarm hierarchy rules dictate that only the most severe
alarm of an alarm group is reported. Whether an alarm is reported or not, you can view the current state of a
defect by checking the Active Defects line from the showcontrollersposcommand output. A defect is a
problem indication that is a candidate for an alarm.
For B1, the bit interleaved parity error report is calculated by comparing the BIP-8 code with the BIP-8 code
extracted from the B1 byte of the following frame. Differences indicate that section level bit errors have
occurred.
For B2, the bit interleaved parity error report is calculated by comparing the BIP-8/24 code with the BIP-8
code extracted from the B2 byte of the following frame. Differences indicate that line level bit errors have
occurred.
For B3, the bit interleaved parity error report is calculated by comparing the BIP-8 code with the BIP-8 code
extracted from the B3 byte of the following frame. Differences indicate that path level bit errors have occurred.
PAIS is sent by line terminating equipment (LTE) to alert the downstream path terminating equipment (PTE)
that it has detected a defect on its incoming line signal.
PLOP is reported as a result of an invalid pointer (H1, H2) or an excess number of new data flag (NDF)
enabled indications.
SLOF is detected when a severely error framing (SEF) defect on the incoming SONET signal persists for 3
milliseconds.
SLOS is detected when an all-zeros pattern on the incoming SONET signal lasts 19 plus or minus 3
microseconds or longer. This defect might also be reported if the received signal level drops below the specified
threshold.
To determine the alarms that are reported on the interface, use the showcontrollersposcommand.
Examples The following example enables reporting of SD-BER and LAIS alarms on the interface:

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines SONET payload scrambling applies a self-synchronous scrambler (x43+1) to the Synchronous Payload
Envelope (SPE) of the interface to ensure sufficient bit transition density. Both ends of the connection must
use the same scrambling algorithm. When enabling POS scrambling on a VIP2 POSIP on the Cisco 7500
series router that has a hardware revision of 1.5 or higher, you can specify CRC 16 only (that is, CRC 32 is
currently not supported).
To determine the hardware revision of the POSIP, use the showdiag command.
To determine whether scrambling is enabled on the interface, use the showinterfacepos command or the
showrunning-config command.
Note SONET payload scrambling is enabled with the posscramble-atm command. SONET payload scrambling
applies a self-synchronous scrambler (x43+1) to the Synchronous Payload Envelope (SPE) of the interface
to ensure sufficient bit transition density. Both sides of the connection must be configured using the
posscramble-atm command. Currently, when connecting to a Cisco 7500 series router and using the
posscramble-atm command, you must specify the crc16 command rather than the crc32 command.

12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines For B1, the bit interleaved parity error report is calculated by comparing the BIP-8 code with the BIP-8 code
extracted from the B1 byte of the following frame. Differences indicate that section level bit errors have
occurred.
For B2, the bit interleaved parity error report is calculated by comparing the BIP-8/24 code with the BIP-8
code extracted from the B2 byte of the following frame. Differences indicate that line level bit errors have
occurred.
For B3, the bit interleaved parity error report is calculated by comparing the BIP-8 code with the BIP-8 code
extracted from the B3 byte of the following frame. Differences indicate that path level bit errors have occurred.
SF-BER and SD-BER are sourced from B2 BIP-8 error counts (as is B2-TCA). However, SF-BER and SD-BER
feed into the automatic protection switching (APS) machine and can lead to a protection switch (if APS is
configured).
B1-TCA, B2-TCA, and B3-TCA do nothing more than print a log message to the console (if reports for them
are enabled).
To determine the BER thresholds configured on the interface, use the showcontrollersposcommand.

for additional information.
Cisco IOS XE Release 3.9S This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 3.9S.
Usage Guidelines The policekeyword appears if you have a WS-F6K-48-AF or other inline power daughter card that supports
power monitoring and inline power policing.
Inline power is supported only on switch ports that are connected to an IP phone. Before you enable inline
power on a switch port, you must enter the switchport command.
The following information applies to WS-F6K-48-AF and WS-F6K-GE48-AF inline power cards:
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXH2 and later releases, the configurable range of maximum power using
the max keyword is 4000 to 16800 milliwatts. For earlier releases, the configurable range for maximum
power is 4000 to 15400 milliwatts. For all releases, if no maximum power level is configured, the default
maximum power is 15400 milliwatts.
Note To support a large number of inline-powered ports using power levels above 15400 milliwatts on an inline
power card, we recommend using the static keyword so that the power budget is deterministic.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXH2 and later releases, when you enter the auto keyword and CDP is
enabled on the port, an inline-powered device that supports CDP can negotiate a power level up to 16800
milliwatts unless a lower maximum power level is configured. For earlier releases, the inline-powered
device can negotiate a power level up to 15400 milliwatts or the configured maximum power level, if
it is configured lower than 15400 milliwatts.

ppp link
To generate the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) Link Control Protocol (LCP) down and keepalive-failure link
traps or enable calls to the interface-reset vector, use the ppplinkcommand in interface configuration mode.
To disable the PPP LCP down and keepalive-failure link traps or calls to the interface-reset vector, use the
no form of this command.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines This command is not supported on Cisco 7600 series routers that are configured with a Supervisor Engine
720.
The noppplinktrap command disables the sending of the link traps when the LCP goes down.
In the event that the PPP calls the interface-reset vector while the LCP is configured or closed, Up/Down
status messages will display on the console. If a leased-line configuration is up but the peer is not responding,
PPP may call the interface-reset vector once per minute. This situation may result in the Up/Down status
messages on the console. Use the noppplinkresetcommand to disable calls to the interface-reset vector. PPP
will continue to attempt to negotiate with the peer, but the interface will not be reset between each attempt.
Examples This example shows how to enable calls to the interface-reset vector:
Router(config-if)#
ppp link reset
Router(config-if)#
This example shows how to disable calls to the interface-reset vector:
Router(config-if)#
no ppp link reset
Router(config-if)#
This example shows how to generate the PPP LCP down/keepalive-failure link traps:
Router(config-if)#
ppp link trap
Router(config-if)#
This example shows how to disable the sending of the link traps when the LCP goes down:
Router(config-if)#
no ppp link trap
Router(config-if)#
Command Default Loopback links with PPP sessions disconnect after ten LCP CONFREQ messages are sent for negotiation.
Usage Guidelines A circuit loopback indicates wiring issues in a device or faults with external switching equipment. The default
functionality of the PPP protocol is to check for loopbacks and disconnect the session link when a loopback
is detected. The PPP protocol includes a mechanism that detects a circuit loopback; that is, it detects a situation
when a circuit feeds back upon itself, which results in the device reading its own output on that link. The first
phase of loopback detection occurs during LCP negotiation when the circuit is being established. If you enable
keepalives on a link, the second phase of loopback detection occurs after the connection is established.
Note Loopback detection depends upon successful negotiation of the LCP magic number during link
establishment. LCP magic numbers are used in PPP to avoid frame loopbacks.
Use the ppp loopback no-backoff command when it becomes essential to prevent disconnection of session
links whenever a loopback is detected. This ensures that the link does not go down and that there is a continuous
attempt to establish connection. Link negotiations continue until a unique LCP magic number is received.
The no form of this command restores the default behavior in which the loopback links with PPP sessions
disconnect after only ten LCP CONFREQ messages are sent for negotiation.
Examples The following example shows how to enable the ppp loopback no-backoff command on a serial interface:
Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# interface Serial1/0/0:1
Device(config-if)# no ip address
Device(config-if)# encapsulation ppp
Device(config-if)# ppp loopback no-backoff
Device(config-if)# end

15.2(2)SNI This command was implemented on the Cisco ASR 901 Series Aggregation
Services Routers.
Usage Guidelines This command allows the MRRU value to be configured on MLP interfaces and member links. This command
is useful for interfaces running an application such as IP Security (IPsec), where the addition of the IPsec
header causes the packet to exceed the 1500-byte MTU of a typical IP packet.
When using a large-bundle interface MTU size, you must ensure that the individual frames-per-fragment size
passed to the link interfaces is not greater than the link interface MTU setting or the peer MRRU setting. This
size limit can be achieved in one of the following two ways:
Configure the link interface MTU setting appropriately.
Configure fragmentation such that the link MTU settings will never be violated.
When MLP is configured, several physical interfaces can constitute one logical connection to the peer. To
represent the logical connection, software provides a logical interface, often called the bundle interface. This
interface will have the IP address, for instance, and the MTU setting of the interface that IP uses when it is
deciding whether to fragment an IP datagram that needs to be forwarded. The physical interfaces forward
individual MLP fragments or frames that are given to them by the bundle interface.
The result of having to decide whether to fragment a packet is that, whereas with simple PPP the interface
MTU must not exceed the peers MRRU, with MLP the MTU size of the bundle interface must not exceed
the MRRU setting of the peer.
The MRRU settings on both sides need not be equal, but the must not exceed rule just specified must be
followed; otherwise a system might send several fragments that, when reconstructed as a frame, will be too
large for the peers receive buffer.
Once you configure the MRRU on the bundle interface, you enable the router to receive large reconstructed
MLP frames. You may want to configure the bundle MTU so that the router can send large MLP frames,
although it is not strictly necessary. The maximum recommended value for the bundle MTU is the value of
the peers MTU. The software will automatically reduce the bundle interface MTU if necessary to avoid
violating the peers MRRU.
When the bundle interface MTU is tuned to a higher number, then depending upon the fragmentation
configuration, the link interface may be given larger frames to send. There are two possible solutions to this
problem, as follows:
Ensure that fragmentation is performed such that fragments are sized less than the link interface MTU
(refer to the command pages for the pppmultilinkfragmentdisable and pppmultilinkfragmentdelay
commands for more information about packet fragments).
Configure the MTUs of the link interfaces such that they can send the larger frames.
Note Be careful when configuring MLP MRRU negotiation in a virtual private dialup network (VPDN)
environment when an L2TP network server (LNS) is not running Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)T. The software
performs strict matching on the MRRU values in earlier versions of Cisco IOS software.
Examples The following example shows how to configure MRRU negotiation on a virtual template with synchronous
serial interfaces. The example also applies to asynchronous serial interfaces.

pulse-time[msecseconds]
no pulse-time
Syntax Description msec (Optional) Specifies the use of milliseconds for the
DTR signal interval.
12.1(5)T The optional msec keyword was added to configure the interval in milliseconds.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines When the serial line protocol goes down (for example, because of loss of synchronization), the interface
hardware is reset and the DTR signal is held inactive for at least the specified interval. This function is useful
for handling encrypting or other similar devices that use the toggling of the DTR signal to resynchronize.
Use the optional msec keyword to specify the DTR signal interval in milliseconds. A signal interval set to
milliseconds is recommended on High-Speed Serial Interfaces (HSSIs).
Note Whenever the pulse-time command is configured for the synchronous serial interface, do one of the
following after every interface state transition. This ensures that the DTR is pulsed down for the configured
interval:
In exec mode, issue the clear interface serial x/y/[ z ] command.
In config mode of the serial interface, issue a shutdown, followed by no shutdown.
If you do not clear/reset the interface with one of these procedures, the pulse-time command will have
no effect.
Optionally, you can automate this procedure using an EEM or Tcl script. The following example EEM
script clears the serial interface after a disconnection:
event manager applet CLEAR_INIT_S000
event syslog pattern "Line protocol on Interface Serial0/0/0, changed state to down"
action 2.0 cli command "enable"
action 2.1 cli command "clear int Serial0/0/0"
action 3.0 syslog msg "clear int Serial0/0/0"
Examples The following example enables DTR pulse signals for 3 seconds on serial interface 2:

Usage Guidelines Use the redundancy command to enter redundancy configuration mode, where you can define aspects of
redundancy such as shelf redundancy for the Cisco AS5800 universal access server.
Cisco 10000 Series Router
Before configuring line card redundancy, install the Y-cables. Before deconfiguring redundancy, remove the
Y-cables.
The following restrictions apply to line card redundancy on the Cisco 10000 series router:
Port-level redundancy is not supported.
Redundant cards must occupy the two subslots within the same physical line card slot.
The line card that will act as the primary line card must be the first line card configured, and it must
occupy subslot 1.
Router(config)# redundancy
Router(config-red)#
The following example shows how to assign the configured router shelf to the redundancy pair designated as
25. This command must be issued on both router shelves in the redundant router-shelf pair:
Router(config)# redundancy
Router(config-red)# failover group-number 25
Examples The following example shows how to configure two 4-port channelized T3 half eight line cards that are
installed in line card slot 2 for one-to-one redundancy:
Router(config)# redundancy
Router(config-r)# linecard-group 1 y-cable
Router(config-r-lc)# member subslot 2/1 primary
Router(config-r-lc)# member subslot 2/0 secondary

12.2(44)SQ This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(44)SQ. Support
for the Cisco RF Gateway 10 was added.
Usage Guidelines Use the redundancy force-switchover command to switch control of a router from the active RP or Supervisor
card to the standby RP or Supervisor card. Both the active and standby RPs or Supervisor cards must have a
high availability Cisco IOS image installed and must be configured for Route Processor Redundancy (RPR)
mode before the redundancy force-switchover command can be used. Before the system switches over, it
verifies that the standby RP or Supervisor card is ready to take over.
When you use the redundancy force-switchovercommand and the current running configuration is different
from the startup configuration, the system prompts you to save the running configuration before the switchover
is performed.
Note Before using this command in Cisco 7600 series routers, refer to the Performing a Fast Software Upgrade
section of the Cisco 7600 Series Router Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide for additional information.
On Cisco 7600 series routers, the redundancy force-switchover command conducts a manual switchover to
the redundant supervisor engine. The redundant supervisor engine becomes the new active supervisor engine
running the new Cisco IOS image. The modules are reset and the module software is downloaded from the
new active supervisor engine.
The active and redundant supervisor engines do not reset on a Route Processor Redundancy Plus (RPR+)
switchover. The old active supervisor engine reboots with the new image and becomes the redundant supervisor
engine.
Beginning with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SCA, you can force a Performance Routing Engine (PRE)
switchover using the redundancy force-switchover main-cpu command from either the primary or standby
PRE. If you force a switchover from the active PRE, both PREs synchronize and the active PRE reloads
normally. When you force a switchover from the standby PRE, a crash dump of the active PRE occurs for
troubleshooting purposes. Forcing a switchover from the standby PRE should only be done if you cannot
access the active PRE.
Examples The following example shows a switchover from the active RP to the standby RP on a Cisco 7513 router with
RPR configured:
...
[OK]
Proceed with switchover to standby NSE? [confirm]y
00:07:35:%SYS-5-SWITCHOVER:Switchover requested
The following example shows how to perform a manual switchover from the active to the standby RP when
the running configuration is the same as the startup configuration:

redundancy handover
To hand over control of resources (slots and cards) from a route-switch-controller (RSC) card to its peer RSC
card, use the redundancyhandover command in privileged EXEC mode.
busyout-period mins (Optional) Time period for which all slots in the
selected resources are to be busied out before
handover. If time options are omitted, handover or
busyout period begins immediately.
12.2(11)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(11)T.
Usage Guidelines To use this command, you must have two RSC cards installed on your Cisco AS5850 and you must be
connected to one of them in handover-split mode. This command can be run from either RSC and can specify
that slots be handed over to the peer RSC.
After handover and subsequent restoration of the failed RSC, connect to the active RSC and use this command
to return control of cards to the previously failed but now restored RSC.
Note that when you enter the command with the shelf-resources option, the RSC reloads.
Examples The following example hands over control, to the peer RSC, of the slots and cards on the corresponding side
of the chassis. Note the prompt to confirm clearing of calls, handover, and reload on the last line.

redundancy stateful
To configure stateful failover for tunnels using IP Security (IPSec), use the redundancystatefulcommand in
crypto map configuration mode. To disable stateful failover for tunnel protection, use the no form of this
command.
Syntax Description standby-group-name Refers to the name of the standby group as defined
by Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) standby
commands. Both routers in the standby group are
defined by this argument and share the same virtual
IP (VIP) address.
Usage Guidelines The redundancystatefulcommand uses an existing IPSec profile (which is specified via the
cryptoipsecprofilecommand) to configure IPSec stateful failover for tunnel protection. (You do not configure
the tunnel interface as you would with a crypto map configuration.) IPSec stateful failover enables you to
define a backup IPSec peer (secondary) to take over the tasks of the active (primary) router if the active router
is deemed unavailable.
The tunnel source address must be a VIP address, and it must not be an interface name.
Examples The following example shows how to configure stateful failover for tunnel protection:
interface Tunnel1
ip unnumbered Loopback0
tunnel source 209.165.201.3
tunnel destination 10.0.0.5
tunnel protection ipsec profile peer-profile
!
interface Ethernet0/0

12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in
a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines T3/E3 scrambling is used to assist clock recovery on the receiving end. Scrambling is designed to randomize
the pattern of 1s and 0s carried in the physical layer frame. Randomizing the digital bits can prevent continuous,
nonvariable bit patterns--in other words, long strings of all 1s or all 0s. Several physical layer protocols rely
on transitions between 1s and 0s to maintain clocking.
Scrambling can prevent some bit patterns from being mistakenly interpreted as alarms by switches placed
between the Data Service Units (DSUs).
The local interface configuration must match the remote interface configuration. For example, if you enable
scrambling on the local port, you must also do the same on the remote port.
To verify that scrambling is configured on the interface, use the showcontrollersserialor the
showinterfacesserialcommands.
For T3 controllers, all the DSU modes support scrambling except Clear mode.
For E3 controllers, only Kentrox mode supports scrambling.
Examples The following example enables scrambling on the PA-E3 port adapter in slot 1, port adapter slot 0, interface
0:

use the serialrestart-delay command in interface configuration mode. To restore the default, use the no form
of the command.
12.2(4)T The count value was changed to set time in milliseconds rather than in seconds.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
15.1(2)S This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 15.1(2)S.
Usage Guidelines The router resets the hardware each time the serial restart timer expires. This command is often used with the
dial backup feature and with the pulse-time command, which sets the amount of time to wait before redialing
when a DTR dialed device fails to connect.
When thecountvalue is set to the default of 0, the hardware is not reset when it goes down. In this way, if the
interface is used to answer a call, it does not cause DTR to drop, which can cause a communications device
to disconnect.
Examples The following example shows how to set the restart delay on serial interface 0 to 0:
Related Commands
Command Description
pulse-time Enables pulsing DTR signal intervals on the serial
interfaces.
server ip address
To configure a static IP address for the Cisco E-Series Server, use the server ip address command in interface

Syntax Description erase-flash (Optional) Erases all files in the Flash memory file
system when declassification is invoked.
Note The servicedeclassify command is supported on the Cisco 3200 series routers only.
12.4(2)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.4(2)T.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines The network interfaces are shut down when declassification is invoked.
No command-line interface (CLI) command invokes the declassification process. Declassification is invoked
by using an external signal that appears on the AUX port of the router. When declassification is complete,
the ROMMON prompt appears on the console.
The output that appears on the console when declassification is initiated depends on what options have been
configured. Because of the complex interactions between the declassification process and the logging process
during declassification, it is not possible to document exactly what appears on the screen.
Examples The following example shows the console output when declassification is invoked:
Examples The output on the console when the erase-all keyword is used resembles the following:
Note If the servicedeclassifyerase-all command is configured and the Flash file system is erased, error recovery
actions must be initiated to load a bootable image on the router. The startup configuration file is also
erased; the router boots from the factory default configuration the next time it is booted.
Examples The output on the console when the erase-flash keyword is used resembles the following:
Note The Flash file system is erased and there will not be a bootable image for the router in the Flash file system
if the servicedeclassifyerase-flash command is configured. Error recovery actions must be initiated to
load a bootable image. The startup configuration file is not erased if the servicedeclassifyerase-flash
command is configured. When the router is booted, it is configured using its startup configuration file in
NVRAM.
Examples The output on the console when the erase-nvram keyword is used resembles the following:
Note If the servicedeclassifyerase-nvram command is configured, the Flash file system is not erased. The
bootable image in the Flash file system remains, and the router can be booted. The startup configuration
file is erased; because the router has no configuration file, it boots from the default configuration

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines The 56-kbps line speed is available in switched mode, which is enabled using the
service-module56knetwork-type interface configuration command on the 4-wire CSU/DSU. If you have a
2-wire CSU/DSU module, the default is automatically set to switched mode.
The 64-kbps line speed cannot be used with back-to-back digital data service (DDS) lines. The subrate line
speeds are determined by the service provider.
The autokeyword enables the CSU/DSU to decipher current line speed from the sealing current running on
the network. Use the auto keyword only when transmitting over telco DDS lines and the clocking source is
taken from the line.
Examples The following example displays two routers connected in back-to-back DDS mode. However, notice that at
first the configuration fails because the auto option is used. Later in the example the correct matching
configuration is issued, which is 38.4 kbps.

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines In switched mode, you need additional dialer configuration commands to configure dial-out numbers. Before
you enable the service-module56knetwork-typeswitched command, both CSU/DSUs must use a clock
source coming from the line and have the clock rate configured to auto or 56 kbps. If the clock rate is not set
correctly, this command will not be accepted.
The 2-wire and 4-wire, 56/64-kbps CSU/DSU modules use V.25 bis dial commands to interface with the
router. Therefore, the interface must be configured using thedialerin-band command. Data terminal ready
(DTR) dial is not supported.
Note Any loopbacks in progress are terminated when switching between modes.

12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines The noservice-module56kremote-loopback command prevents the local CSU/DSU from being placed into
loopback by remote devices on the line. The line provider is still able to put the module into loopback by
reversing sealing current. Unlike the T1 module, the 2- or 4-wire, 56/64-kbps CSU/DSU module can still
initiate remote loopbacks with the no form of this command configured.
Examples The following example enables transmitting and receiving remote loopbacks:

12.2(13)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(13)T.
Usage Guidelines Only one session at a time is allowed into the content engine from the internal CE network-module-side
interface. This interface provides console access to the CE network module from the router command-line
interface (CLI) by initiating a reverse Telnet connection that uses the IP address of the CE interface and the
terminal (TTY) line associated with the CE network module. The TTY line number is calculated using the
formula (n*32) + 1, where n is the number of the chassis slot that contains the CE network module. The CE
interface must be up before you can use this command.
Once a session is started, you can perform any CE configuration task. You first access the CE console in a
user-level shell. To access the privileged EXEC command shell, where most commands are available, use the
enable command. Note that this is a Cisco Application and Content Networking System (ACNS) software
command, not a Cisco IOS software command.
CE configuration tasks are described in the documentation for Cisco Application and Content Networking
Software, Release 4.2. Initial CE configuration tasks are covered in the Cisco Content Delivery Networking
Products Getting Started Guide, section 6, Perform an Initial Startup Configuration.
After you finish CE configuration and exit the CE console session, use this command with the clear keyword

Usage Guidelines With the existing IOS code, if no heartbeat is received from a service module after a period of time, the IOS
resets the service module. For some applications, this reset function should be disabled because it blocks
normal operations.
This command, being a configuration mode command, persists through router reloads.
Alternatively, the service-module ism heartbeat-reset disable command and the service-module sm
heartbeat-reset disable command can prevent Cisco IOS software from rebooting the internal service module
(ISM) and the SM-SRE service module, respectively, when the heartbeat is lost. However, both these commands
are EXEC mode commands and they are lost when the router reboots.
Examples The following example shows how to disable the heartbeat reset:

Examples The following example displays information for an ISE network module in an access router for slot 2:
service-module ip address
To define the IP address for the internal network-module-side interface on a content engine network module
(NM-CE-BP), Cisco IP VSAT satellite WAN network module (NM-1VSAT-GILAT), Cisco cable modem
high-speed WAN interface card (HWIC-CABLE-D-2, HWIC-CABLE-E/J-2), or the Cisco Services Ready
Engine (Cisco SRE) modules (SM-SRE-XXX-K9, ISM-SRE-XXX-K9) use the service-moduleipaddress
command in content-engine interface configuration mode, satellite interface configuration mode, content-engine
configuration mode, or service-module interface configuration mode. To delete the IP address associated with
this interface, use the no form of this command.
Command Default The well-known diagnostic IP address of 192.168.100.1, is supported on all physical interfaces associated
with the cable modem to CPE interface (CMCI).
Command Modes Content-engine interface configuration Satellite interface configuration Cable-modem interface configuration
Service-module interface configuration
12.2(13)T This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(13)T.
12.3(14)T This command was implemented for the Cisco IP VSAT satellite WAN

12.4(6)XE This command was implemented for the Cisco cable modem high-speed
WAN interface card (HWIC-CABLE-D-2, HWIC-CABLE-E/J-2).
15.1(4)M The optional string argument was added on Cisco SRE modules only.
If you use this method to configure the IP address for the router satellite interface, the system automatically
configures the IP address and subnet mask on the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module with these results:
The IP address is 1 less than the IP address you configured for the router satellite interface.
The subnet mask is /30.
You can override the automatically configured IP address and mask by manually entering the
service-moduleipaddress command.
Note The automatically configured IP address does not appear in the router configuration, because the
service-moduleipaddress command is considered to be set to its default value. Similarly, if you manually
configure an IP address and subnet mask that are identical to the automatically configured IP address and
subnet mask, the service-moduleipaddress command does not appear in the router configuration.
Examples The following example shows how to define an IP address for the internal network-module-side interface on
the CE network module in slot 1:
Router(config-if)# exit
Examples In the following example, the router satellite interface is assigned an IP address (10.0.0.7), the last octet of
which does not leave a remainder of 2 when divided by 4. The system displays a message to manually configure
the IP address for the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module. Notice that the IP addresses for both the router
satellite interface and the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module appear in the running configuration.
Examples In the following example, the router satellite interface IP address is configured as 10.0.0.6. Because the last
octet of the IP address leaves a remainder of 2 when divided by 4, the system automatically configures the IP
address for the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module.
Although the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module IP address and mask do not appear in the router
configuration, you know that the IP address is 1 less than the IP address of the router satellite interface and
has a subnet mask of /30. In this case, the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module is automatically configured
with the following IP address and mask: 10.0.0.5 255.255.255.252.

Examples In the following example, the router satellite interface IP address is configured as 10.0.0.6. Because the last
octet of the IP address leaves a remainder of 2 when divided by 4, the system automatically configures the IP
address and mask for the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module as 10.0.0.5 255.255.255.252.
Nevertheless, the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module IP address and mask are manually configured as
10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 to override the automatically derived IP address and mask. Notice that the IP addresses
for both the router satellite interface and the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module appear in the running
configuration.

Command Default The router is enabled to send its routing database to the hub.
Usage Guidelines The service-moduleroutingredistribute command is used on a VSAT router, that is, an earthbound modular
access router equipped with a Cisco IP VSAT satellite WAN network module (NM-1VSAT-GILAT) that
connects to a satellite network. When VSAT route updates are enabled, the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network
module uses Router Blade Configuration Protocol (RBCP) messages to communicate VSAT routing table
changes to the hub.
Entering the noservice-moduleroutingredistribute command is useful when you do not want the hub to be
aware of all the routes known by the VSAT router, such as when Network Address Translation (NAT) is
configured on the router.
The hub must learn the remote VSAT routing database for the satellite network to function properly. Therefore,
if you enter the noservice-moduleroutingredistribute command, then one of the following actions is required:
You use RIPv2 as the only routing protocol on your VSAT router. The hub can understand and track
RIPv2 route updates.
On the hub router, configure static routes to the VSAT router networks.
Examples The following example shows how to prevent the VSAT router from sending its routing database to the satellite
network central hub:
Syntax Description slot Router chassis slot in which the network module is
installed.
Usage Guidelines The service-modulesatellitebackup command is used only when you configure hub dial backup for the Cisco
IP VSAT satellite WAN network module (NM-1VSAT-GILAT).
Normally, the hub dial backup connection comes up only when the satellite link goes down (for example,
because of a rain-fade event). The service-modulesatellitebackup command allows you to artificially bring
down the satellite link to test the hub dial backup connection.
Examples The following example shows how to initiate a satellite backup test:
Related Commands
Command Description
service-module backup interface Specifies the interface to use to back up the satellite
interface on the Cisco IP VSAT satellite WAN
network module (NM-1VSAT-GILAT).
service-module backup mode Sets the terrestrial backup mode for the Cisco IP
VSAT satellite WAN network module
(NM-1VSAT-GILAT).
Syntax Description slot Router chassis slot in which the network module is
installed.
Usage Guidelines You need a password from your satellite service provider to enter satellite initial configuration mode.
The parameters that you configure in satellite initial configuration mode are saved directly to the network
module and do not appear in the router configuration, even though you configure the parameters through the
Cisco IOS CLI.
To view the parameter values that were configured in satellite initial configuration mode, use one of the
following commands:
show command in satellite initial configuration mode
service-module satellite slot /0 status command in privileged EXEC mode
Note This command is typically used by an installation technician. Do not use this command unless your satellite
service provider instructs you to perform the satellite initial configuration and provides all necessary
parameter values.
Examples The following example shows how to enter satellite initial configuration mode:
Password: <mypassword>
Related Commands
Command Description
end (satellite initial configuration) Exits satellite initial configuration mode, saves any
new or changed parameters, and resets the Cisco IP
VSAT satellite WAN network module

exit (satellite initial configuration) Exits satellite initial configuration mode, saves any
new or changed parameters, and resets the Cisco IP
VSAT satellite WAN network module
(NM-1VSAT-GILAT).
show (satellite initial configuration) Displays the initial configuration parameters for the
Cisco IP VSAT satellite WAN network module
(NM-1VSAT-GILAT).
Syntax Description slot Router chassis slot in which the network module is
installed.
Usage Guidelines Continuous wave mode can be enabled only when the Cisco IP VSAT satellite WAN network module
(NM-1VSAT-GILAT) is in boot mode.
When continuous wave mode is enabled, the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module transmits unmodulated
carrier waves that can be used for dish antenna orientation adjustments and for signal quality measurements.
Note This command is typically used by an installation technician. Do not use this command unless your satellite
service provider instructs you to do so.
Note You need a password from your satellite service provider to enable continuous wave mode.
Examples The following example shows how to enable continuous wave mode for 2 minutes, at 900000 kilohertz:
Password: <mypassword>
CW mode obtained.
The following example shows how to disable continuous wave mode:
CW mode released.
The following example shows the message that appears when you try to enable continuous wave mode while
the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module is not in boot mode:
Password <mypassword>
% CW mode NOT obtained! Valid during boot mode only.
Syntax Description slot Router chassis slot in which the network module is

Usage Guidelines Use the service-modulesatellitestatus command to troubleshoot the Cisco IP VSAT satellite WAN network
module (NM-1VSAT-GILAT).
Examples See the table below for service-modulesatellitestatus command output field descriptions.
This section provides the following examples:
Examples The following example shows that the link to the hub (backbone status) is up, as is expected in normal working
conditions:
Examples The following example shows that the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module is in boot mode after a software
reset, so that the link to the hub (backbone status) is down:
Examples The following example shows what appears during the beginning stages of a software reset:
Examples The following example shows that the hub dial backup link is being used instead of the satellite link. Note,
however, that hub dial backup keeps the backbone status up. In hub dial backup mode, the NM-1VSAT-GILAT
network module connects to the hub over a specified dial backup link and maintains TCP connections.

Syntax Description inverted Inverts bit codes by changing all 1 bits to 0 bits and
all 0 bits to 1 bits.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Data inversion is used to guarantee the ones density requirement on an AMI line when using bit-oriented
protocols such as High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC), PPP, X.25, and Frame Relay. If the time slot speed
is set to 56 kbps, this command is rejected because line density is guaranteed when transmitting at 56 kbps.
Use this command with the 64-kbps line speed.
If you transmit inverted bit codes, both CSU/DSUs must have this command configured for successful
communication.
Examples The following example inverts bit codes using a time slot speed of 64 kbps:
-if)
# service-module t1 timeslots all speed 64
Router(config
-if)
# service-module t1 data-coding inverted

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Remote alarms are transmitted by the CSU/DSU when it detects an alarm condition, such as a red alarm (loss
of frame) or blue alarm (unframed ones). The receiving CSU/DSU then knows that there is an error condition
on the line.
With D4 Super Frame configured, a remote alarm condition is transmitted by setting the bit 2 of each time
slot to zero. For received user data that has the bit 2 of each time slot set to zero, the CSU/DSU interprets the
data as a remote alarm and interrupts data transmission, which explains why remote alarms are disabled by
default. With Extended Super Frame configured, the remote alarm condition is signalled out of band in the
facilities data link.
You can see if the FT1/T1 CSU/DSU is receiving a remote alarm (yellow alarm) by issuing the
showservice-moduleserial command.
Examples The following example enables remote alarm generation and detection:

service-module t1 remote-loopback
To specify that the fractional T1/T1 DSU/CSU module enters loopback mode when it receives a loopback
code on the line, use the service-modulet1remote-loopback command in interface configuration mode. To
disable remote loopbacks, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description full Configures the remote loopback code used to transmit
or accept CSU loopback requests.
Use the fullkeyword to enable the standard loopup codes, which use a 1-in-5 pattern for loopup and a 1-in-3
pattern for loopdown. Use the payloadv54keywords to enable the v54 pseudo-random loopup codes for loopup
and v54 pseudo-random loopdown codes for loopdown.
Command Default Full and payload loopbacks with standard loopup codes
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines The no form of this command disables loopback requests. For example, the
noservice-modulet1remote-loopbackfull command ignores all full-bandwidth loopback transmissions and
requests.
Configuring the no form of the command might not prevent telco line providers from looping your router in
extended super frame (esf) mode because fractional T1/T1 lines use facilities data link messages to initiate
loopbacks.
To have the loopback remote commands on the FT1/T1 CSU/DSU module function successfully, you need
to enable the service-modulet1remote-loopback command.
Note Use the fullkeyword to enable the standard loopup codes, which use a 1-in-5 pattern for loopup and a
1-in-3 pattern for loopdown. Use the payloadv54keywords to enable the v54 pseudorandom codes for
loopup and v54 pseudorandom codes for loopdown.
Examples The following example shows how to configure two routers connected back-to-back through a fractional
T1/T1 line to enter loopback mode:

service-module t1 timeslots
To define time slots that constitute a fractional T1/T1 (FT1/T1) channel , use the
service-modulet1timeslotscommand in interface configuration mode. To resume the default setting (all
FT1/T1 time slots transmit at 64 kbps), use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description range The DS0 time slots that constitute the FT1/T1
channel. The range is from 1 to 24, where the first
time slot is numbered 1 and the last time slot is
numbered 24. Specify this field by using a series of
subranges separated by commas.
56 (Optional) 56 kbps.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in
a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines This command specifies which time slots are used in fractional T1 operation and determines the amount of
bandwidth available to the router in each FT1/T1 channel.
The time-slot range must match the time slots assigned to the channel group. Your service provider defines
the time slots that comprise a channel group.
To use the entire T1 line, enable the service-modulet1timeslotsallcommand.
Examples The following example displays a series of time-slot ranges and a speed of 64 kbps:
Router(config
-if)
# service-module t1 timeslots 1-10,15-20,22 speed 64

service-module t1 linecode Selects the linecode for the fractional T1/T1 module.
Syntax Description interface number The interface number for the wireless device. Always
use 0.
Usage Guidelines When running the advanced IP services feature set on either Cisco 880 Series routers or Cisco 890 Series
routers, use the service-module wlan-ap 0 bootimage unified commandto enable the Cisco unified software
upgrade image on the embedded wireless access point. After enabling the unified image, use the service-module
wlan-ap 0 reload command to perform a graceful shutdown and reboot of the access point.
Note The service-module wlan-ap 0 bootimagecommand does not support recovery images on the embedded
access point. Use the service-module wlan-ap 0 reload command to shutdown and reboot the access
point.
Cisco 880 Series and Cisco 890 Series routers with embedded access point running the unified software image
require DHCP to obtain an IP address for the access point. An IP address is needed to communicate with the
Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) and to download its image upon boot up. The host router can provide DHCP
server functionality through the DHCP pool to reach the WLC, and setup option 43 for the controller IP
address in the DHCP pool configuration.
Use the following guideline to setup a DHCP pool on the host router.
Examples The following example upgrades the embedded access point image from autonomous to unified.

12.2(17d)SXB Support for this command on the Supervisor Engine 2 was extended to
Release 12.2(17d)SXB.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Examples This example shows how to open a session with an MSM (module 4):
set ip df
To change the Dont Fragment (DF) bit value in the IP header, use the setipdf command in route-map
configuration mode. To disable changing the DF bit value, use the no form of this command.
set ip df {0| 1}
no set ip df {0| 1}
Syntax Description 0 Sets the DF bit to 0 (clears the DF bit ) and allows
packet fragmentation.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Using Path MTU Discovery (PMTUD) you can determine an MTU value for IP packets that avoids
fragmentation. If ICMP messages are blocked by a router, the path MTU is broken and packets with the DF
bit set are discarded. Use the setipdf command to clear the DF bit and allow the packet to be fragmented and
sent. Fragmentation can slow the speed of packet forwarding on the network but access lists can be used to
limit the number of packets on which the DF bit will be cleared.
Note Some IP transmitters (notably some versions of Linux) may set the identification field in the IP header
(IPid) to zero when the DF bit is set. If the router should clear the DF bit on such a packet and if that
packet should subsequently be fragmented, then the IP receiver will probably be unable to correctly
reassemble the original IP packet.
Examples The following example shows how to clear the DF bit to allow fragmentation. In this example a router is
blocking ICMP messages and breaking the path MTU. Using policy routing both the inbound and outbound
packets on interface serial 0 will have their DF bit set to 0 which allows fragmentation.
interface serial 0
ip policy route-map clear-df-bit
route-map clear-df-bit permit 10
match ip address 111
set ip df 0
access-list 111 permit tcp any any

Actual Power Measured total output power when the line is trained
up. When the line is down, the last measured power
is given.
Field Description
Signal Attenuation (dB) For a band in the downstream direction, it is the
measured difference in the total power transmitted
by the DSLAM(xTU-C) and the total power received
by the CPE(xTU-R) over all sub-carriers of that band
during Showtime.
For a band in the upstream direction, it is the
measured difference in the total power transmitted
by the xTU-R and the total power received by the
xTU-C over all sub-carriers of that band during
Showtime
Noise Margin (dB) SNR Margin is the maximum increase of the noise
power (in dB) received at the xTU (xTU-R for a band
in the downstream direction and xTU-C for a band
in the upstream direction), such that the Bit Error Rate
(BER) requirements are met for all bearer channels
received at the xTU.

In releases prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SB, when you configure the t1 loopback remote command on
the local router, the command also displays in the running configuration file of the far-end router. This is due
to the Route Processor (RP) updating an incorrect parameter when it receives the loopback event message
from the line card for loopback requests from the far end.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SB, the RP updates the correct parameter and the show controllers command
correctly displays the loopback CLI commands applied on the local end and displays the loopback events and
status received from the line card in response to loopback requests from the far end.
This change in behavior affects the following line cards and is documented in the CSCsm84447 caveat:
4-port channelized STM1
1-port channelized OC-12
6-port channelized T3
4-port half-height channelized T3
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SB, the output from the show controller command includes line code information
for the 6-port channelized T3 line card and the 8-port E3/DS3 line card. However, because SONET line cards
do not have a direct physical link at the T3 or E3 level, the output from the show controller t3 command does
not include line code information.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(31)SB, the output from the show controller command displays line code information.
The output of the show controller t3 command for SONET-based T3 also includes line code information.

Field Description
RX-error throttling Indicates that error throttling is enabled. The error
throttling command disables the T1 level clock in
order to stop receiving error data packets on a T1
controller. If any single interface receives a burst of
errors over a short duration, such as 400 errors in 100
milliseconds, the T1 clock will be turned off for a
period of 100 milliseconds.
Field Description
Data in current interval (39 seconds elapsed) Shows the current accumulation period, which rolls
into the 24-hour accumulation every 15 minutes.
Accumulation period is from 1 to 900 seconds. The
oldest 15-minute period falls off the back of the
24-hour accumulation buffer.
P-bit Coding Violation For all DS3 applications, a P-bit coding violation
(PCV) error event is a P-bit parity error event. A P-bit
parity error event is the occurrence of a received P-bit
code on the DS3 M-frame that is not identical to the
corresponding locally calculated code.
C-bit Coding Violation For C-bit parity and SYNTRAN DS3 applications,
the C-bit coding violation (CCV) is the count of
coding violations reported via the C-bits. For C-bit
parity, it is the count of CP-bit parity errors that occur
during the accumulation interval. For SYNTRAN, it
is a count of CRC-9 errors that occur during the
accumulation interval.
P-bit Err Secs P-bit errored seconds (PES) is a second with one or
more PCVs, one or more out-of-frame defects, or a
detected incoming AIS. This gauge is not incremented
when unavailable seconds are counted.
P-bit Severely Err Secs P-bit severely errored seconds (PSES) is a second
with 44 or more PCVs, one or more out-of-frame
defects, or a detected incoming AIS. This gauge is
not incremented when unavailable seconds are
counted.
Severely Err Framing Secs Severely errored framing seconds (SEFS) is a second
with one or more out-of-frame defects or a detected
incoming AIS.
Field Description
Line Errored Secs Line errored seconds (LES) is a second in which one
or more code violations or one or more LOS defects
occurred.
C-bit Errored Secs C-bit errored seconds (CES) is a second with one or
more C-bit code violations (CCV), one or more
out-of-frame defects, or a detected incoming AIS.
This gauge is not incremented when UASs are
counted.
C-bit Severely Errored Secs C-bit severely errored seconds (CSES) is a second
with 44 or more CCVs, one or more out-of-frame
defects, or a detected incoming AIS. This gauge is
not incremented when UASs are counted.
Total Data (last 1 15 minute intervals) Shows the last 15-minute accumulation period.
FDL per ANSI T1.403 and AT&T 54016 spec. Performance monitoring is via Facility Data Link per
ANSI T1.403 and AT&T standard specification
number 54016.
Field Description
Framing Type of framing used on the T1 channel. Values are
ESF or SF.
Path Code Violations Path coding violation (PCV) error event is a frame
synchronization bit error in the D4 and E1-no-CRC
formats or a CRC error in the ESF and E1-CRC
formats.
Line Err Secs Line errored seconds (LES) is a second in which one
or more line code violation errors are detected.
Bursty Err Secs Bursty errored seconds (BES) is a second with fewer
than 320 and more than one path coding violation
error events, no severely errored frame defects, and
no detected incoming AIS defects. Controlled slips
are not included in this parameter.
Severely Err Secs Severely errored seconds (SES) is a second with 320
or more path code violation errors events, one or more
out-of-frame defects, or a detected AIS defect.
Field Description
Stuffed Secs Stuffed seconds (SS) is a second in which one more
bit stuffings take place. This happens when the Pulse
Density Enforcer detects a potential violation in the
output stream and inserts a 1 to prevent it. Such bit
stuffings corrupt user data and indicate that the
network is configured incorrectly. This counter can
be used to help diagnose this situation.

second in the last 5 minutes. If the interface is not in
promiscuous mode, it senses network traffic it sends
and receives (rather than all network traffic).
The 5-minute input and output rates should be used
only as an approximation of traffic per second during
a given 5-minute period. These rates are exponentially
weighted averages with a time constant of 5 minutes.
A period of four time constants must pass before the
average will be within two percent of the
instantaneous rate of a uniform stream of traffic over
that period.
Field Description
input errors Includes runts, giants, no buffer, CRC, frame, overrun,
and ignored counts. Other input-related errors can
also cause the input errors count to be increased, and
some datagrams may have more than one error;
therefore, this sum may not balance with the sum of
enumerated input error counts.
input packets with dribble condition detected Dribble bit error indicates that a frame is slightly too
long. This frame error counter is incremented just for
informational purposes; the router accepts the frame.
Field Description
underruns Number of times that the transmitter has been running
faster than the router can handle. This may never be
reported on some interfaces.
output errors Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission
of datagrams out of the interface being examined.
Note that this may not balance with the sum of the
enumerated output errors, as some datagrams may
have more than one error, and others may have errors
that do not fall into any of the specifically tabulated
categories.
Field Description
output buffer failures Number of failed buffers and number of buffers
swapped out.
Command Description
execute-on Executes commands on a line card.
show dsip
To display all information about the Distributed System Interconnect Protocol (DSIP) on a Cisco AS5800,
use the showdsipcommand in EXEC mode.
show dsip
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Your Cisco AS5800 universal access server uses a protocol used by the Cisco 7206 router shelf to communicate
back and forth with the Cisco 5814 dial shelf controller card(s) and feature cards. Although dial shelf
interconnect (DSI) configuration is transparent to the user, there are several show commands to help you view
your setup, and debug commands to help you troubleshoot your system.
To display a subset of this information, use theshowdsipclients, showdsipnodes, showdsipports,
showdsipqueue,showdsiptracing, showdsiptransport, and showdsipversion commands.
Examples The following is sample output from the showdsipcommand. For a description of the fields shown in the
sample output, refer to the individual showdsipcommands listed in the Usage Guidelines section.

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Use this command to see whether a client is actually registered with DSIP and using its services.
Consider the following example: a client Trunk seems to be defunct on a particular node with absolutely no
input/output activity. The command show dsip ports does not show any Trunk port among its local ports
though all other client ports show up. The problem might be that the Trunk client did not even register with
DSIP. To confirm this, use the show dsip clients command.
Examples The following is sample output from the showdsipclientscommand. This command lists the clients.

12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines Use show dsip nodes to see the nodes (slots) connected by DSIP and the node specific sequence numbers.
The former information is also available from show dsip transport. The sequence numbers are useful for
support engineers while debugging a problem.
Field Description
ID DSIP uses Ciscos IPC (Inter Process Communication)
module for nondata related (client control messages
etc.) traffic. A seat or node is a computational
element, such as a processor, that can be
communicated with using IPC services. A seat is
where entities and IPC ports reside. The IPC
maintains a seat table which contains the seatids of
all the seats in the system. Normally this seatid is a
function of the slot number.
Last Sent/Last Heard Each node maintains two sequence numbers for the
last sent and last heard.
Last Sent Whenever a message is sent out, the last sent counter
is updated.
Related Commands
Command Description
show dsip clients Lists the clients registered with DSIP on a system.
show dsip ports Displays information about local and remote ports
Syntax Description local (Optional) Displays information for local ports. The
local port is the port created at a seats local end.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines The DSIP communication going through the IPC stack uses ports. The creation of a port returns a 32-bit port
ID which is the endpoint for communication between two IPC clients.
The show dsip ports command is used to check clients that are up and running:
To see the local ports that are created and the activity on them.
To see the remote ports which are connected and to see the activity on them.
If no options are specified, information is displayed for both local and remote ports.
Field Description
Client:Portname Client name and port name. Port Name. The port
names can be determined because they are based on
a uniform naming convention that includes the
following elements:
Client name
Master/slave status
Slot number
Any client can derive the port name of the other client
it wants to talk to once it knows its physical location,
using the following formula:
Master/Slave Status Port Name Syntax
Master Client-Name:Master,for example,
Console:Master
Slave Client-Name:SlaveSlot, for example,
Clock:Slave1
Field Description
Portid Port ID. The Port ID is a 32-bit identifier comprised
of seatid and the port-number. The IPC maintains
a seat table which contains the seatids of all the seats
in the system. A seat is where clients and ports reside.
The seat ID is a function of the slot number. Port
number is the sequential number of the port that is
being created on a particular seat, for example: 0,1,
2, etc.

Field Description
DSIP Transport Statistics: There are basically three kinds of communication
channels between the DSIP modules running on two
processors:
1 IPC: DSIP IPC-based reliable/best-effort channel.
2 CNTL: Control packet channel for DSIP modules
to communicate between themselves. For
example, keepalive messages and initial
handshake messages between two DSIP modules
are exchanged over this channel.
3 DATA: DSIP fast data packet channel.
total consumed ipc msgs The total number of IPC messages consumed so far
from the IPC buffer pool.
total freed ipc msgs The total number of IPC messages returned to the
IPC buffer pool so far.
transmit contexts in use DSIP for each active reliable connection to a remote
port keeps a transmit context. This context holds all
the important information pertaining to the remote
connection, such as, destination portid, port name,
number of message and bytes sent to that port etc.
This is created when first time a connection is opened
to a remote port and is reused for all subsequent
communication to that port.
Field Description
ipc getmsg failures Number of times we failed to get an ipc message.
core getbuffer failures The number of times DSIP transport layer has failed
to allocate buffers for the IPC transport.
aip getbuffer failures The number of times DSIP transport has failed to
allocate buffers while preparing to transmit data
received from the clients.
dsip test msgs received/sent The DSIP test messages received and sent by invoking
received/sent the DSIP Test client.
DSIP Private Buffer Pool Hits DSIP by default gets all its buffers from the public
buffer pools. If for some reason, it runs out of those
buffers, it falls back on a DSIP private pool. This
number indicates the number of times DSIP has used
this fallback pool.

The table below describes the significant fields shown in the display.
Field Description
TOS Indicates the Operational Trunk state of the port,
except when the port is in the Negotiation phase. In
the Negotiation phase, the status is either Trunk or
Access.
Neighbor address 1/2 Indicates the MAC address of the neighbor connected
or the Neighbor Port MAC Address 1/2 in case of
multi-neighbors on the same port.
Field Description
Hello timer Indicates that a DTP advertisement is sent after the
timer expires. The timer keeps running as long as
DTP is enabled and the port is capable of negotiating.
The time interval during negotiation is 1 second, and
30 seconds when the port is in spanning tree protocol
(STP) or has reached a final DTP state.
Access timer This timer is started when the port is in Trunk state,
participates in STP (state S6), and the mode is
AUTO/DESIRABLE. When the timer expires, the
port is set to Access state. The interval for this timer
is 10 * Hello Timer. The interval gets reset/restarted
whenever the port (which is in S6 state) receives a
DTP packet and confirms its present state.
Negotiation timer This timer is started when the port enters into an S3
or S5 DTP negotiation state. When the timer expires,
the DTP state of the port moves into either
Trunk/Non-Trunk.
The time interval is 3 seconds and the timer is
restarted if the received DTP packet changes the
Trunk state or type.
Field Description
FSM state Indicates the Finite State Machine State or DTP port
state. There are 5 FSM states as follows:
S1: OFF: Physical port is not in the operational
state. There is no data packet transmission or
receipt.
S2: ACCESS: Port state is non-Trunk and is
added to the STP.
S3: NT-DTP: Port state is in negotiation phase.
The port is not added to the STP and there is no
data packet transmission or receipt.
S4: ACCESS-M: Port state is non-Trunk and is
added to the STP. Port receives the DTP packets
from multiple neighbors.
S5: T-DTP: Port is in ISL/.1Q Trunk mode. Port
is not added to the STP and there is no data
packet transmission or receipt.
S6: TRUNK: Port state is ISL/.1Q Trunk mode
and is added to the STP.

The channel-group argument supports six EtherChannels and eight ports in each channel.
If you do not specify a value for the channel-group argument, all channel groups are displayed.
Cisco Catalyst Switches
The number of valid values for the channel-group argument depends on the software release. For software
releases prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.1(3a)E3, valid values are from 1 to 256; for Cisco IOS Release
12.1(3a)E3, 12.1(3a)E4, and 12.1(4)E1, valid values are from 1 to 64. Cisco IOS Release 12.1(5c)EX and
later support a maximum of 64 values ranging from 1 to 256. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXH supports a
maximum of 64 values ranging fro m 1 to 282.
If you do not specify a value for the channel-group argument, all channel groups are displayed.
In the output, the Passive port list field is displayed for Layer 3 port channels only. This field means that the
physical interface, which is still not up, is configured to be in the channel group (and indirectly in the only
port channel in the channel group).
The channel-groupvalues from 257 to 282 are supported on the Catalyst 6500 series Cisco Services Module
(CSM) and the Catalyst 6500 series Firewall Services Module (FWSM) only.
In the output, the Passive port list field is displayed for Layer 3 port channels only. This field means that the
physical interface, which is still not up, is configured to be in the channel group (and indirectly is the only
port channel in the channel group).
If the interface is configured as part of the channel in ON mode, theshowetherchannelprotocol command
displays Protocol: - (Mode ON).
In the output of the showetherchannelsummary command, the following conventions apply:
In the column that displays the protocol that is used for the channel, if the channel mode is ON, a hyphen
(-) is displayed.
For LACP, multiple aggregators are supported. For example, if two different bundles are created, Po1
indicates the primary aggregator, and Po1A and Po1B indicates the secondary aggregators.

Command Description
channel-group Assigns and configures an EtherChannel interface to
an EtherChannel group.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5 This command was modified. Information about the port-channel
configuration and flow-based load balancing was added to the
output.
Usage Guidelines The showetherchannelload-balancing command shows which load-balancing method is applied to the port
channels of a GEC interface, both at the global level and for each port channel.
There are two methods of load balancing on a GEC interface:
VLAN-manual--All packets forwarded over the same VLAN subinterface are considered part of the
same flow and are mapped to the member link specified in the configuration.
Flow-based--Traffic flows are mapped to different member links based on the packet header.
Examples The following example shows output from this command for a port channel configured with VLAN-manual
load balancing:
Port-Channel: LB Method
Port-channel1 : vlan-manual
The table below describes the significant fields shown in the display.
Field Description
Global LB Method Load balancing method set globally for all port
channels with the
port-channelload-balancingvlan-manual command.
Port Channel LB Method Load balancing method set for the specific port
channels with the load-balancingcommand. This
configuration takes precedence over the global
configuration.

Command Description
load-balancing Applies a load-balancing method to a GEC interface.
show fabric
To display the information about the crossbar fabric, use the showfabric command in EXEC mode.
Syntax Description active (Optional) Displays the redundancy status for the
Switch Fabric Module.
12.2(17d)SXB Support for this command on the Supervisor Engine 2 was extended to
Release 12.2(17d)SXB.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines This command is not supported on Cisco 7600 series routers that are configured with a Supervisor Engine
32.
If you specify slot, the information is displayed for the specified slot. If you specify all, the information for
all slots using the crossbar fabric is displayed. If you do not specify slot or all, the display is the same as if
you entered all.
To display all the related crossbar fabric information, enter the showfabric command without keywords.
A fabric channel is each connection between a module and the crossbar fabric module. Each module can have
zero, one, or two fabric channels. The more fabric channels that a module has, the more overall bandwidth is
available to the module.
The following errors are associated with the crossbar fabrics:
Synchronization errors--General errors are the most common types of errors.
Heartbeat errors--The supervisor engine sends out periodic heartbeat packets to each module using the
crossbar fabric. If any of these modules or the crossbar fabric fail to detect heartbeat packets for a period
of time, this error is reported.
CRC errors--All packets crossing the crossbar fabric are CRC protected. If any of the ASICs between
a module and the crossbar fabric module detect a CRC error, this error is reported.
The threshold information is shown only when you enter the nofabricswitching-modeallowtruncated
command.
In the showfabricswitching-mode command output, the possible global switching modes are as follows:
Flow-through (Bus)--Mode that the switch uses for traffic between nonfabric-enabled modules and for
traffic between a nonfabric-enabled module and a fabric-enabled module. In this mode, all traffic passes
between the local bus and the supervisor engine bus.
Truncated--Mode that the switch uses for traffic between fabric-enabled modules when both fabric-enabled
and nonfabric-enabled modules are installed. In this mode, the switch sends a truncated version of the
traffic (the first 64 bytes of the frame) over the switch fabric channel.
Compact--Mode that the switch uses for all traffic when only fabric-enabled modules are installed. In
this mode, a compact version of the DBus header is forwarded over the switch fabric channel, which
provides the best possible performance.
In the showfabricswitching-mode command output , depending on the supervisor engine installed, the
following messages appear:
With a Supervisor Engine 2, this message is included in the output:
Examples This example shows how to display the redundancy status of the Switch Fabric Module:

show hub
To display information about the hub (repeater) on an Ethernet interface of a Cisco 2505 or Cisco 2507 router,
use the showhub command in user EXEC or privileged EXEC mode.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Usage Guidelines If you do not specify a port or port range for the showhub command, the command displays all ports (for
example, ports 1 through 16 on a Cisco 2507 router) by default. Therefore, the showhub, showhubethernet0,
and showhubethernet0116 commands produce the same result.
If no ports are specified, the command displays some additional data about the internal port. The internal port
is the hubs connection to Ethernet interface 0 inside the box. Ethernet interface 0 still exists; physical access
to the interface is via the hub.
Examples

Command Description
clear interface cem Clears the cem channel.
show interface [type number] history [all| 60sec| 60min| 72hour] [both| input| output]
Usage Guidelines The showinterfacehistory command displays histograms of interface utilization. The y-axis represents the
input or output rate in packets per second, kilobits per second, or megabits per second. Kilobits per second is
used when the bandwidth of the interface is less than one gigabit per second. Megabits per second is used for
more than one gigabit per second.
The x-axis represents time in units of seconds, minutes or hours with the most current time at the left side of
the histogram. There are three histograms available: the last 60 seconds, the last 60 minutes, and the last 72
hours.
The interface counters specified in the history(interface) command are displayed under the x-axis of each
histogram. Each counter has a five-character identification as listed in the command. The identification is
displayed at the beginning of each counter line. The number in the column indicates that the counter incremented
by that amount during the specified interval. When the counter exceeds a single digit, the values are displayed
vertically.
Examples The following example shows the histogram output of interface history:

The show interfaces command displays statistics for the network interfaces. The resulting output varies,
depending on the network for which an interface has been configured. The resulting display on the Cisco 7200
series routers shows the interface processors in slot order. If you add interface processors after booting the
system, they will appear at the end of the list, in the order in which they were inserted.
Information About Specific Interfaces
The number argument designates the module and port number. If you use the show interfaces command on
the Cisco 7200 series routers without the slot/port arguments, information for all interface types will be shown.
For example, if you type show interfaces you will receive information for all Ethernet, serial, Token Ring,
and FDDI interfaces. Only by adding the type slot/port argument you can specify a particular interface.
Cisco 7600 Series Routers
Valid values for the number argument depend on the specified interface type and the chassis and module that
are used. For example, if you specify a Gigabit Ethernet interface and have a 48-port 10/100BASE-T Ethernet
module that is installed in a 13-slot chassis, valid values for the module number are from 1 to 13 and valid
values for the port number are from 1 to 48.
The port channels from 257 to 282 are internally allocated and are supported on the Content Switching Module
(CSM) and the Firewall Services Module (FWSM) only.
Statistics are collected on a per-VLAN basis for Layer 2-switched packets and Layer 3-switched packets.
Statistics are available for both unicast and multicast traffic. The Layer 3-switched packet counts are available
for both ingress and egress directions. The per-VLAN statistics are updated every 5 seconds.
In some cases, you might see a difference in the duplex mode that is displayed between the show interfaces
command and the show running-configcommands. In this case, the duplex mode that is displayed in the
show interfaces command is the actual duplex mode that the interface is running. The show interfaces
command shows the operating mode for an interface, and the show running-config command shows the
configured mode for an interface.
If you do not enter any keywords, all counters for all modules are displayed.
Command Variations
You will use the show interfaces command frequently while configuring and monitoring devices. The various
forms of the show interfaces commands are described in detail in the sections that follow.
Dialer Interfaces Configured for Binding
If you use the show interfaces command on dialer interfaces configured for binding, the display will report
statistics on each physical interface bound to the dialer interface; see the following examples for more
information.
Removed Interfaces
If you enter a show interfaces command for an interface type that has been removed from the router or access
server, interface statistics will be displayed accompanied by the following text: Hardware has been removed.
Weighted Fair Queueing Information
If you use the show interfaces command on a router or access server for which interfaces are configured to
use weighted fair queueing through the fair-queue interface command, additional information is displayed.
This information consists of the current and high-water mark number of flows.
Cisco 10000 Series Router
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SB, when a multilink PPP (MLP) interface is down/down, its default bandwidth
rate is the sum of the serial interface bandwidths associated with the MLP interface.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(31)SB, the default bandwidth rate is 64 Kbps.
Examples The following is sample output from the show interfaces command. Because your display will depend on
the type and number of interface cards in your router or access server, only a portion of the display is shown.
Note If an asterisk (*) appears after the throttles counter value, it means that the interface was throttled at the
time the command was run.
Examples The following example shows partial sample output when custom output queueing is enabled:
Examples For each interface on the router or access server configured to use weighted fair queueing, the show interfaces
command displays the information beginning with Inputqueue: in the following display:
Field Description
Input Queue
Output Queue
Examples To display the number of packets of each protocol type that have been sent through all configured interfaces,
use the show interfaces accounting command. When you use the accounting option, only the accounting
statistics are displayed.
Note Except for protocols that are encapsulated inside other protocols, such as IP over X.25, the accounting
option also shows the total bytes sent and received, including the MAC header. For example, it totals the
size of the Ethernet packet or the size of a packet that includes High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC)
encapsulation.
AppleTalk
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) (for IP, Frame Relay, Switched Multimegabit Data Service (SMDS))
Connectionless Network Service (CLNS)
Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) Maintenance Operations Protocol (MOP)
The routers use MOP packets to advertise their existence to Digital Equipment Corporation machines that use
the MOP. A router periodically broadcasts MOP packets to identify itself as a MOP host. This results in MOP
packets being counted, even when DECnet is not being actively used.

Examples The following is sample output from the show interfaces command issued for the serial interface 1 for which
flow-based WRED is enabled. The output shows that there are 8 active flow-based WRED flows, that the
maximum number of flows active at any time is 9, and that the maximum number of possible flows configured
for the interface is 16:
Examples The following is sample output from the show interfaces command when distributed weighted fair queueing
(DWFQ) is enabled on an interface. Notice that the queueing strategy is listed as VIP-based fair queueing.
Examples When the show interfaces command is issued on an unbound dialer interface, the output looks as follows:
Examples In this example, the physical interface is the B1 channel of the BRI0 link. This example also illustrates that
the output under the B channel keeps all hardware counts that are not displayed under any logical or virtual
access interface. The line in the report that states Interface is bound to Dialer0 (Encapsulation LAPB)
indicates that the B interface is bound to Dialer0 and the encapsulation running over this connection is Link
Access Procedure, Balanced (LAPB), not PPP, which is the encapsulation configured on the D interface and
inherited by the B channel.
Examples The following is sample output from the show interfaces fastethernet command for the second interface
(port 1) in a 4-Port 10/100 Fast Ethernet SPA located in the bottom subslot (1) of the Modular Service Cards
(MSC) that is installed in slot 2 on a Cisco 7304 router:

The table below describes the significant fields shown in the display.
Field Description
Fast Ethernet...is up ...is administratively down Indicates whether the interface hardware is currently
active and if it has been taken down by an
administrator.
Field Description
RxBW Receiver bandwidth of the interface, in kilobits per
second. This value is displayed only when an interface
has asymmetric receiver and transmitter rates.
txload, rxload Load on the interface (in the transmit tx and receive
rx directions) as a fraction of 255 (255/255 is
completely saturated), calculated as an exponential
average over 5 minutes.
Last input Number of hours, minutes, and seconds since the last
packet was successfully received by an interface and
processed locally on the router. Useful for knowing
when a dead interface failed.
This field is not updated by fast-switched traffic.
Field Description
Last clearing Time at which the counters that measure cumulative
statistics (such as number of bytes transmitted and
received) shown in this report were last reset to zero.
Note that variables that might affect routing (for
example, load and reliability) are not cleared when
the counters are cleared.
A series of asterisks (***) indicates the elapsed time
is too large to be displayed.
0:00:00 indicates the counters were cleared more than
231 ms (and less than 232 ms) ago.
Input queue (size/max/drops/flushes) Packet statistics on the input queue reported as:
Size--Number of packets in the input queue.
Max--Maximum size of the queue.
Drops--Number of packets dropped because of
a full input queue.
Flushes--Number of packets dropped as part of
selective packet discard (SPD). SPD implements
a selective packet drop policy on the routers IP
process queue. Therefore, it applies only to
process-switched traffic.
Output queue (size/max) Number of packets in the output queue (size), and the
maximum size of the queue (max).
5 minute input rate, 5 minute output rate Average number of bits and packets transmitted per
second in the last 5 minutes. If the interface is not in
promiscuous mode, it senses network traffic it sends
and receives (rather than all network traffic).
The 5-minute input and output rates should be used
only as an approximation of traffic per second during
a given 5-minute period. These rates are exponentially
weighted averages with a time constant of 5 minutes.
A period of four time constants must pass before the
average will be within two percent of the
instantaneous rate of a uniform stream of traffic over
that period.
Field Description
packets input Total number of error-free packets received by the
system.
Field Description
frame Number of packets received incorrectly having a CRC
error and a noninteger number of octets. On a LAN,
this is usually the result of collisions or a
malfunctioning Ethernet device.
input packets with dribble condition detected Dribble bit error indicates that a frame is slightly too
long. This frame error counter is incremented for
informational purposes only; the router accepts the
frame.
output errors Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission
of datagrams out of the interface being examined.
Note that this may not balance with the sum of the
enumerated output errors, because some datagrams
may have more than one error and others may have
errors that do not fall into any of the specifically
tabulated categories.
Field Description
interface resets Number of times an interface has been completely
reset. This can happen if packets queued for
transmission were not sent within several seconds.
Interface resets can occur when an interface is looped
back or shut down.
Examples The following is sample output from the show interfaces gigabitethernet command for the first interface
(port 0) in a 2-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet SPA located in the top subslot (0) of the MSC that is installed
in slot 4 on a Cisco 7304 router:
Examples The following examples show the additional lines included in the display when the command is issued on
two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces that are configured as a primary interface (gi3/0/0) and as a backup interface
(gi3/0/11) for the primary:
Field Description
GigabitEthernet...is up ...is administratively down Indicates whether the interface hardware is currently
active and if it has been taken down by an
administrator.
Backup interface Identifies the backup interface that exists for this, the
primary interface.
Failure and secondary delay The period of time (in seconds) to delay bringing up
the backup interface when the primary goes down,
and bringing down the backup after the primary
becomes active again. On the Cisco 7600 router, the
delay must be 0 (the default) to ensure that there is
no delay between when the primary goes down and

packet was successfully received by an interface and
processed locally on the router. Useful for knowing
when a dead interface failed.
This field is not updated by fast-switched traffic.
Field Description

packet was successfully transmitted by the interface.
Useful for knowing when a dead interface failed.
Input queue (size/max/drops/flushes) Packet statistics on the input queue reported as:
Size--Number of packets in the input queue.
Max--Maximum size of the queue.
Drops--Number of packets dropped because of
a full input queue.
Flushes--Number of packets dropped as part of
SPD. SPD implements a selective packet drop
policy on the routers IP process queue.

maximum size of the queue (max).
Field Description
5 minute input rate, 5 minute output rate Average number of bits and packets transmitted per
second in the last 5 minutes. If the interface is not in
promiscuous mode, it senses network traffic it sends
and receives (rather than all network traffic).
The 5-minute input and output rates should be used
only as an approximation of traffic per second during
a given 5-minute period. These rates are exponentially
weighted averages with a time constant of 5 minutes.
A period of four time constants must pass before the
average will be within two percent of the
instantaneous rate of a uniform stream of traffic over
that period.
Field Description
input errors Includes runts, giants, no buffer, CRC, frame, overrun,
and ignored counts. Other input-related errors can
also cause the input errors count to be increased, and
some datagrams may have more than one error;
therefore, this sum may not balance with the sum of
enumerated input error counts.
input packets with dribble condition detected Dribble bit error indicates that a frame is slightly too
long. This frame error counter is incremented for
informational purposes only; the router accepts the
frame.
Field Description
output errors Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission
of datagrams out of the interface being examined.
Note that this may not balance with the sum of the
enumerated output errors, because some datagrams

error and a noninteger number of octets. On a serial
line, this is usually the result of noise or other
transmission problems.
output errors Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission
of datagrams out of the interface being examined.
Note that this might not balance with the sum of the
enumerated output errors, because some datagrams
can have more than one error, and others can have
errors that do not fall into any of the specifically
tabulated categories.
Field Description
output buffer failures Not supported for POS interfaces.

Usage Guidelines
Note The Pkts Out and Chars Out fields display IPv6 packet counts only. The Pkts In and Chars In fields display
both IPv4 and IPv6 packet counts, except for tunnel interfaces. For tunnel interfaces, the IPv6 input packets
are counted as IPv6 packets only.
Due to hardware limitations on the ASIC, PFC IPv4 and IPv6 packets cannot be differentiated in the Pkts In
and Chars In fields for IP count the IPv6 and IPv4 packets that are hardware forwarded. The Pkts In and Chars
In fields for IPv6 only count software-forwarded packets. The IP Pkts Out and Chars Out fields show IPv4
packets, and the IPv6 Pkts Out and Chars Out fields show IPv6 packets.
The interface-number argument designates the module and port number. Valid values for interface-number
depend on the specified interface type and the chassis and module that are used. For example, if you specify
a Gigabit Ethernet interface and have a 48-port 10/100BASE-T Ethernet module that is installed in a 13-slot
chassis, valid values for the module number are from 1 to 13 and valid values for the port number are from
1 to 48.
The port channels from 257 to 282 are internally allocated and are supported on the CSM and the FWSM
only.
If you do not enter any keywords, all counters for all modules are displayed.

input packets with dribble condition detected Number of packets with dribble condition. Dribble
bit error indicates that a frame is slightly too long.
This frame error counter is incremented just for
informational purposes; the router accepts the frame.
output errors Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission

Release 12.2(17d)SXB.
12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Usage Guidelines The pos, atm, and ge-wan keywords are supported on Cisco 7600 series routers that are configured with a
Supervisor Engine 2.
The debounce timer is not supported on the 10-Gigabit Ethernet module (WSX-6502-10GE).
The interface-number argument designates the module and port number. Valid values for interface-number
depend on the specified interface type and the chassis and module that are used. For example, if you specify
a Gigabit Ethernet interface and have a 48-port 10/100BASE-T Ethernet module that is installed in a 13-slot
chassis, valid values for the module number are from 1 to 13 and valid values for the port number are from
1 to 48.
The port-channel values are from 0 to 282; values from 257 to 282 are supported on the CSM and the FWSM
only.

12.2(33)SXI This command was changed to add the optional vlanvlan keyword and
argument.
Usage Guidelines If you do not provide values for the numberargument (or slot, port, and port-adapter arguments), the command
displays statistics for all network interfaces. The optional keyword accounting displays the number of packets
of each protocol type that have been sent through the interface.
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXI and later releases allow you to limit the display of switch port information
to the specified VLAN.
Examples The following is sample output from the showinterfacesethernetcommand for Ethernet interface 0:
Field Description
Ethernet ... is up ... is administratively down Indicates whether the interface hardware is currently
active and if it has been taken down by an
administrator. Disabled indicates the router has
received over 5000 errors in a keepalive interval,
which is 10 seconds by default.
Field Description
line protocol is {up | down | administratively down} Indicates whether the software processes that handle
the line protocol believe the interface is usable (that
is, whether keepalives are successful) or if it has been
taken down by an administrator.
Last input Number of hours, minutes, and seconds since the last
packet was successfully received by an interface and
processed locally on the router. Useful for knowing
when a dead interface failed. This counter is updated
only when packets are process-switched, not when
packets are fast-switched.
Last output Number of hours, minutes, and seconds since the last
packet was successfully transmitted by an interface.
This counter is updated only when packets are
process-switched, not when packets are fast-switched.
Field Description
output hang Number of hours, minutes, and seconds (or never)
since the interface was last reset because of a
transmission that took too long. When the number of
hours in any of the last fields exceeds 24 hours, the
number of days and hours is printed. If that field
overflows, asterisks are printed.
Output queue, input queue, drops Number of packets in output and input queues. Each
number is followed by a slash, the maximum size of
the queue, and the number of packets dropped because
of a full queue.
5 minute input rate, 5 minute output rate Average number of bits and packets transmitted per
second in the last five minutes. If the interface is not
in promiscuous mode, it senses network traffic it
sends and receives (rather than all network traffic).
The five-minute input and output rates should be used
only as an approximation of traffic per second during
a given five-minute period. These rates are
exponentially weighted averages with a time constant
of five minutes. A period of four time constants must
pass before the average will be within two percent of
the instantaneous rate of a uniform stream of traffic
over that period.
Field Description
Received ... broadcasts Total number of broadcast or multicast packets
received by the interface.
input packets with dribble condition detected Dribble bit error indicates that a frame is slightly too
long. This frame error counter is incremented just for
informational purposes; the router accepts the frame.
Field Description
packets output Total number of messages transmitted by the system.
output errors Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission
of datagrams out of the interface being examined.
Note that this may not balance with the sum of the
enumerated output errors, as some datagrams may
have more than one error, and others may have errors
that do not fall into any of the specifically tabulated
categories.
Field Description
lost carrier Number of times the carrier was lost during
transmission.

Output queue, input queue, drops Number of packets in output and input queues. Each
number is followed by a slash, the maximum size of
the queue, and the number of packets dropped because
of a full queue.
5 minute input rate, 5 minute output rate Average number of bits and packets transmitted per
second in the last 5 minutes. If the interface is not in

to hand received data to a hardware buffer because
the input rate exceeded the receivers ability to handle
the data.
input packets with dribble condition detected Dribble bit error indicates that a frame is slightly too
long. This frame error counter is incremented just for
informational purposes; the router accepts the frame.
output errors Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission
of datagrams out of the interface being examined.
Note that this may not balance with the sum of the
enumerated output errors, as some datagrams may
have more than one error, and others may have errors
that do not fall into any of the specifically tabulated
categories.
Field Description
interface resets Number of times an interface has been completely
reset. This can happen if packets queued for
transmission were not sent within several seconds.
On a serial line, this can be caused by a
malfunctioning modem that is not supplying the
transmit clock signal, or by a cable problem. If the
system notices that the carrier detect line of a serial
interface is up, but the line protocol is down, it
periodically resets the interface in an effort to restart
it. Interface resets can also occur when an interface
is looped back or shut down.
The following example of the showinterfacesfastethernetcommand shows all the information specific to the
first PA-12E/2FE interface port (interface port 0) in port adapter slot 3:

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
Release Modification
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in
a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and
platform hardware.
Examples The following is a sample partial display of FDDI-specific data from the showinterfacesfddi command on
a Cisco 7500 series router:
Field Description
Fddi is {up | down | administratively down Gives the interface processor unit number and tells
whether the interface hardware is currently active and
can transmit and receive or if it has been taken down
by an administrator.
line protocol is {up | down} Indicates whether the software processes that handle
the line protocol consider the interface usable.
Field Description
FDX Displays full-duplex information. Values are: not
supported or supported. When the value is supported,
the display indicates whether full-duplex is enabled
or disabled. When enabled, the state of the FDX
negotiation process is displayed. The negotiation
states only relate to the full-duplex negotiation
process. You must also ensure that the interface is up
and working by looking at other fields in the
showinterfacesfddi command such as line protocol
and RMT. Negotiation states are:
idle--Interface is working but not in full-duplex
mode yet. If persistent, it could mean that the
interface did not meet all negotiation conditions
(for example, there are more than two stations
in the ring).
request--Interface is working but not in
full-duplex mode yet. If persistent, it could mean
that the remote interface does not support
full-duplex or full-duplex is not enabled on the
interface.
confirm--Transient state.
operation--Negotiations completed successfully,
and both stations are operating in full-duplex
mode.
Field Description
neighbor State of the neighbor:
A--Indicates that the connection management
(CMT) process has established a connection
with its neighbor. The bits received during the
CMT signaling process indicate that the
neighbor is a Physical A type dual attachment
station (DAS) or concentrator that attaches to
the primary ring IN and the secondary ring OUT
when attaching to the dual ring.
S--Indicates that the CMT process has
established a connection with its neighbor and
that the bits received during the CMT signaling
process indicate that the neighbor is one
Physical type in a single attachment station
(SAS).
B--Indicates that the CMT process has
established a connection with its neighbor and
that the bits received during the CMT signaling
process indicate that the neighbor is a Physical
B dual attachment station or concentrator that
attaches to the secondary ring IN and the
primary ring OUT when attaching to the dual
ring.
M--Indicates that the CMT process has
established a connection with its neighbor and
that the bits received during the CMT signaling
process indicate that the routers neighbor is a
Physical M-type concentrator serving as a
Master to a connected station or concentrator.
unk--Indicates that the network server has not
completed the CMT process and, as a result,
does not know about its neighbor. See the
section Setting Bit Control for an explanation
of the bit patterns.
Field Description
status Status value displayed is the actual status on the fiber.
The FDDI standard defines the following values:
LSU--Line State Unknown, the criteria for
entering or remaining in any other line state
have not been met.
NLS--Noise Line State is entered upon the
occurrence of 16 potential noise events without
satisfying the criteria for entry into another line
state.
MLS--Master Line State is entered upon the
receipt of eight or nine consecutive HQ or QH
symbol pairs.
ILS--Idle Line State is entered upon receipt of
four or five idle symbols.
HLS--Halt Line State is entered upon the receipt
of 16 or 17 consecutive H symbols.
QLS--Quiet Line State is entered upon the
receipt of 16 or 17 consecutive Q symbols or
when carrier detect goes low.
ALS--Active Line State is entered upon receipt
of a JK symbol pair when carrier detect is high.
OVUF--Elasticity buffer Overflow/Underflow.
The normal states for a connected Physical type
are ILS or ALS. If the report displays the QLS
status, this indicates that the fiber is
disconnected from Physical B, or that it is not
connected to another Physical type, or that the
other station is not running.
Field Description
ECM is... ECM is the SMT entity coordination management,
which overlooks the operation of CFM and PCM.
The ECM state can be one of the following:
out--Router is isolated from the network.
in--Router is actively connected to the network.
This is the normal state for a connected router.
trace--Router is trying to localize a stuck beacon
condition.
leave--Router is allowing time for all the
connections to break before leaving the network.
path_test--Router is testing its internal paths.
insert--Router is allowing time for the optical
bypass to insert.
check--Router is making sure optical bypasses
switched correctly.
deinsert--Router is allowing time for the optical
bypass to deinsert.
Field Description
RMT is... RMT (Ring Management) is the SMT MAC-related
state machine. The RMT state can be one of the
following:
isolated--MAC is not trying to participate in the
ring. This is the initial state.
non_op--MAC is participating in ring recovery,
and ring is not operational.
ring_op--MAC is participating in an operational
ring. This is the normal state while the MAC is
connected to the ring.
detect--Ring has been nonoperational for longer
than normal. Duplicate address conditions are
being checked.
non_op_dup--Indications have been received
that the address of the MAC is a duplicate of
another MAC on the ring. Ring is not
operational.
ring_op_dup--Indications have been received
that the address of the MAC is a duplicate of
another MAC on the ring. Ring is operational
in this state.
directed--MAC is sending beacon frames
notifying the ring of the stuck condition.
trace--Trace has been initiated by this MAC,
and the RMT state machine is waiting for its
completion before starting an internal path test.
ring operational When the ring is operational, the displayed value will
be the negotiated token rotation time of all stations
on the ring. Operational times are displayed by the
number of hours:minutes:seconds the ring has been
up. If the ring is not operational, the message ring
not operational is displayed.
Field Description
Configured tvx Transmission timer.
Last input Number of hours, minutes, and seconds since the last
packet was successfully received by an interface and
processed locally on the router. Useful for knowing
when a dead interface failed. This counter is updated
only when packets are process-switched, not when
packets are fast-switched.
Output queue, input queue, drops Number of packets in output and input queues. Each
number is followed by a slash, the maximum size of
the queue, and the number of packets dropped because
of a full queue.
Field Description
5 minute input rate 5 minute output rate Average number of bits and packets transmitted per
second in the last 5 minutes.
The five-minute input and output rates should be used
only as an approximation of traffic per second during
a given 5-minute period. These rates are exponentially
weighted averages with a time constant of 5 minutes.
A period of four time constants must pass before the
average will be within two percent of the
instantaneous rate of a uniform stream of traffic over
that period.
Field Description
overrun Number of times the serial receiver hardware was
unable to hand received data to a hardware buffer
because the input rate exceeded the receivers ability
to handle the data.
output errors Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission
of datagrams out of the interface being examined.
Note that this might not balance with the sum of the
enumerated output errors, because some datagrams
can have more than one error, and others can have
errors that do not fall into any of the specifically
tabulated categories.

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2(33)SXI This command was changed to add the optional vlanvlan keyword and
argument.
Usage Guidelines The pos, atm, and ge-wan keywords are supported on systems that are configured with a Supervisor Engine
2
The modargument designates the module and port number. Valid values for mod depend on the chassis and
module that are used. For example, if you have a 48-port 10/100BASE-T Ethernet module that is installed in
a 13-slot chassis, valid values for the slot number are from 1 to 13 and valid values for the port number are
from 1 to 48.
The modulenumber keyword and argument designate the module number and limit the display to interfaces
on the module. Valid values depend on the chassis that is used. For example, if you have a 13-slot chassis,
valid values for the module number are from 1 to 13.
The port-channel values are from 0 to 282; values from 257 to 282 are supported on the CSM and the FWSM
only.
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXI and later releases allow you to limit the display of switch port information

The following table describes the significant fields shown in the displays:
Field Description
GigabitEthernet...is up ...is administratively down Indicates whether the interface hardware is currently
active or if it has been taken down by an
administrator.
txload, rxload Load on the interface (in the transmit tx and receive
rx directions) as a fraction of 255 (255/255 is
completely saturated), calculated as an exponential
average over 5 minutes.
Field Description
loopback Indicates whether or not loopback is set.
media type Interface port media type: RJ45, SX, LX, or ZX.
Last input Number of hours, minutes, and seconds since the last
packet was successfully received by the interface and
processed locally on a router. Useful for knowing
when a dead interface failed.
This field is not updated by fast-switched traffic.
Field Description
Input queue (size/max/drops/flushes) Packet statistics on the input queue are reported as:
SizeNumber of packets in the input queue.
MaxMaximum size of the queue.
DropsNumber of packets dropped because of
a full input queue.
FlushesNumber of packets dropped as part
of selective packet discard (SPD). SPD
implements a selective packet drop policy on a
routers IP process queue. Therefore, it only
applies to process-switched traffic.
Output queue (size/max) Number of packets in the output queue (size), and the
maximum size of the queue (max).
5 minute input rate, 5 minute output rate Average number of bits and packets transmitted per
second in the last 5 minutes. If the interface is not in
the promiscuous mode, it senses the network traffic
it sends and receives (rather than all the network
traffic).
The 5-minute input and output rates should be used
only as an approximation of traffic per second during
a given 5-minute period. These rates are exponentially
weighted averages with a time constant of 5 minutes.
A period of four time constants must pass before the
average can be within two percent of the
instantaneous rate of a uniform stream of traffic over
that period.
Field Description
runts Number of packets that are discarded because they
are smaller than the minimum packet size of the
medium. For instance, any Ethernet packet that is
smaller than 64 bytes is considered a runt.
Field Description
overrun Number of times the receiver hardware was unable
to hand the received data to a hardware buffer because
the input rate exceeded the receivers ability to handle
the data. The overrun also includes the interface
oversubscription counters.
Note The interface oversubscription counters are
included only on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series
Aggregation Services Routers.
ignored Number of received packets ignored by the interface
because the interface hardware is running low on
internal buffers. These buffers are different from the
system buffers. Broadcast storms and bursts of noise
may cause the ignored count to be increased.
input packets with dribble condition detected Dribble bit error indicates that a frame is slightly
longer than usual. This frame error counter is
incremented for informational purposes only; the
router accepts the frame.
output errors Sum of all the errors that prevented the final
transmission of datagrams out of the interface being
examined. Note that this may not balance with the
sum of the enumerated output errors because some
datagrams may have more than one error and others
may have errors that do not fall into any of the
specifically tabulated categories.
Field Description
interface resets Number of times an interface is completely reset. This
may occur if packets that are queued for transmission
were not sent within several seconds. Interface resets
may occur when an interface is looped back or shut
down.

12.2(33)SRA This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support
in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform,
and platform hardware.
Examples The following is sample output from the showinterfaceshssi command when HSSI is enabled:
Field Description
HSSI is {up | down | administratively down} Indicates whether the interface hardware is currently
active (whether carrier detect is present) and whether
it has been taken down by an administrator. Disabled
indicate that the router has received over 5000 errors
in a keepalive interval, which is 10 seconds by default.
line protocol is {up | down | administratively down} Indicates whether the software processes that handle
the line protocol consider the line usable (that is,
whether keepalives are successful).
Field Description
Last input Number of hours, minutes, and seconds since the last
packet was successfully received by an interface and
processed locally on the router. Useful for knowing
when a dead interface failed. This counter is updated
only when packets are process-switched, not when
packets are fast-switched.
Last output Number of hours, minutes, and seconds since the last

This counter is updated only when packets are

Output queue, drops Input queue, drops Number of packets in output and input queues. Each
number is followed by a slash, the maximum size of
the queue, and the number of packets dropped because
of a full queue.
Five minute input rate, Five minute output rate Average number of bits and packets transmitted per
second in the last 5 minutes.
Field Description
no buffer Number of received packets discarded because there
was no buffer space in the main system. Compare
with ignored count. Broadcast storms on Ethernet
networks and bursts of noise on serial lines are often
responsible for no input buffer events.
rx disabled Indicates that the HSSI could not find a free buffer
on the ciscoBus controller to reserve for use for the
HSSI receiver. When this happens, the HSSI shuts
down its receiver and waits until a buffer is available.
Data is not lost unless a packet comes in and
overflows the HSSI FIFO. Usually, the receive
disables are frequent but do not last for long, and the
number of dropped packets is less than the count in
the rx disabled field. A receive disabled condition
can happen in systems that are under heavy traffic
load and that have shorter packets. In this situation,
the number of buffers available on the ciscoBus
controller is at a premium. One way to alleviate this
problem is to reduce the maximum transmission unit
(MTU) on the HSSI interface from 4500 (FDDI size)
to 1500 (Ethernet size). Doing so allows the software
to take the fixed memory of the ciscoBus controller
and divide it into a larger number of smaller buffers,
rather than a small number of large buffers. Receive
disables are not errors, so they are not included in any
error counts.
Field Description
CRC Cyclic redundancy checksum (CRC) generated by
the originating LAN station or far-end device does
not match the checksum calculated from the data
received. On a LAN, this usually indicates noise or
transmission problems on the LAN interface or the
LAN bus itself. A high number of CRCs is usually
the result of collisions or a station transmitting bad
data. On a serial link CRCs usually indicate noise,
gain hits, or other transmission problems on the data
link. CRC errors are also reported when a far-end
abort occurs, and when the idle flag pattern is
corrupted. This makes it possible to get CRC errors
even when there is no data traffic.
Field Description
output errors Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission
of datagrams out of the interface being examined.
Note that this may not balance with the sum of the
enumerated output errors, because some datagrams
may have more than one error, and others may have
errors that do not fall into any of the specifically
tabulated categories.
carrier transitions Number of times that the carrier detect signal of the
interface has changed state. Indicates modem or line
problems if the carrier detect line is changing state
often.

Field Description
Protocol Protocol that is operating on the interface.
Syntax Description slot/unit Specifies the router slot and unit numbers.
Examples The following example shows how to read the interface information about the WLCM in the router:
Syntax Description slot Router slot in which the service module is installed.
For internal service modules, always use 0.
Usage Guidelines The ISM interface is the Gigabit Ethernet interface on the router that connects to the ISM.
Examples The following example displays status, traffic data, and configuration information about the interface to the
ISM installed in the router.
The table below describes the significant fields shown in the display.
Field Description
Hardware, address Hardware type and address.
Last input Number of hours, minutes, and seconds since the last
packet was successfully received by the interface and
processed locally on the router. This field is useful
for detecting when a dead interface failed.
Note This field is not updated by fast-switched
traffic.
Field Description
output Number of hours, minutes, and seconds since the last
packet was successfully transmitted by the interface.
This field is useful for detecting when a dead interface
failed.
Total output drops Number of packets in the output queue that have been
dropped because of a full queue.
Field Description
5 minute input rate, 5 minute output rate Average number of bits and packets transmitted per
second in the last 5 minutes. If the interface is not in
promiscuous mode, it senses network traffic that it
sends and receives (rather than all network traffic).
The 5-minute input and output rates should be used
only as an approximation of traffic per second during
a given 5-minute period. These rates are exponentially
weighted averages with a time constant of 5 minutes.
A period of four time constants must pass before the
average will be within 2 percent of the instantaneous
rate of a uniform stream of traffic over that period.
Note The 5-minute period referenced in this output
is a load interval that is configurable under
the interface. The default value is 5 minutes.
packets input Total number of error-free packets received by the
system.
Field Description
input errors Errors that include runts, giants, no buffer, cyclic
redundancy checksum (CRC), frame, overrun, and
ignored counts. Other input-related errors can also
cause the input errors count to be increased, and some
datagrams may have more than one error; therefore,
this sum may not balance with the sum of enumerated
input error counts.
input packets with dribble condition detected Number of packets with dribble condition. Dribble
bit error indicates that a frame is slightly too long.
This frame error counter is incremented just for
informational purposes; the router accepts the frame.
Field Description
output errors Sum of all errors that prevented the final transmission
of datagrams out of the interface that is being
examined. Note that this may not balance with the
sum of the enumerated output errors, because some
datagrams may have more than one error, and others
may have errors that do not fall into any of the
specifically tabulated categories.
lost carrier Number of times that the carrier was lost during
transmission.
output buffer failures, output buffers swapped out Number of failed buffers and number of buffers
swapped out.

Usage Guidelines To display statistics about the LAN Extender interface on the core router, use the showinterfaceslex command
without any keywords.
Administratively, the physical serial interface that connects the core router to the LAN Extender is completely
hidden. The showinterfacesserialcommand will show only that the serial interface is present. However, it
will not report any statistics about the traffic passing over the physical line. All statistics are report by the
showinterfaceslex command.

interface multilink Specifies a Fast EtherChannel and enters interface
configuration mode.
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.5 This command was modified. Information about flow-based load
balancing was added to the output.
Usage Guidelines The showinterfacesport-channeletherchannel command shows the bucket-to-member link mappings for
load balancing on the GEC interface.
Load balancing uses the concept of buckets to map traffic flows to the member links of a port channel. The
different traffic flows are mapped to buckets and each bucket has one active member link associated with it.
All traffic flows that are mapped to a bucket use the member link assigned to the bucket.
There are two methods of load balancing on a GEC interface:
VLAN-manual--All packets forwarded over the same VLAN subinterface are considered part of the
same flow and are mapped to the member link specified in the configuration.
Flow-based--Traffic flows are mapped to different member links based on the packet header.
Examples The following example shows output from this command for a port channel with VLAN-manual load balancing
configured:
Port: GigabitEthernet2/1/6
VLAN 1 (Pri, Ac, D, P) VLAN 50 (Sec, St, D, P)
Port: GigabitEthernet2/1/7
VLAN 1 (Sec, St, D, P) VLAN 50 (Pri, Ac, C, P)
Load-Balancing method applied: vlan-manual
