EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Using the Command Line Interface

Chapter 1: Using the Command Line Interface

The command line interface (CLI) is a text-based way to manage and monitor the system. You can access the
CLI by using a direct serial connection or by using a remote logical connection with telnet or SSH.
This chapter describes the CLI syntax, conventions, and modes. It contains the following sections:
Command Syntax on page 29
Command Conventions on page 29
Common Parameter Values on page 29
slot/port Naming Convention on page 30

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Using the Command Line Interface

Command Syntax
A command is one or more words that might be followed by one or more parameters. Parameters can be
required or optional values.
Some commands, such as show network or clear vlan, do not require parameters. Other commands, such as
network parms, require that you supply a value after the command. You must type the parameter values in
a specific order, and optional parameters follow required parameters. The following example describes the
network parms command syntax:
network parms ipaddr netmask [gateway]
network parms is the command name.
ipaddr and netmask are parameters and represent required values that you must enter after you
type the command keywords.
[gateway] is an optional parameter; you are not required to enter a value in place of the parameter.
The CLI Command Reference lists each command by the command name and provides a brief description of
the command. Each command reference also contains the following information:
Format shows the command keywords and the required and optional parameters.
Mode identifies the command mode you must be in to access the command.
Default shows the default value, if any, of a configurable setting on the device.
The show commands also contain a description of the information that the command shows.

Command Conventions
The parameters for a command might include mandatory values, optional values, or keyword choices.
Parameters are order-dependent. Table 3 describes the conventions this document uses to distinguish
between value types.
Table 3. Parameter Conventions
Symbol Example Description
[ ] square brackets [value] Indicates an optional parameter
italic font value or [value] Indicates a variable value. Specify an appropriate value (name or number).
{ } curly braces {choice1 | choice2} Indicates that you must select a parameter from the list of choices
| vertical bar choice1 | choice2 Separates mutually exclusive choices
[ { } ] braces within [{choice1 | choice2}] Indicates a choice within an optional element
square brackets

Common Parameter Values

Parameter values might be names (strings) or numbers. To use spaces as part of a name parameter, enclose
the name value in double quotes. For example, the expression System Name with Spaces forces the
system to accept the spaces. Empty strings () are not valid user-defined strings. Table 4 describes common
parameter values and value formatting.
Table 4. Parameter Descriptions
Parameter Description
ipaddr This parameter is a valid IP address. You can enter the IP address in the following formats:
a (32 bits)
a.b (8.24 bits)
a.b.c (8.8.16 bits)
a.b.c.d (8.8.8.8 bits)
In addition to these formats, the CLI accepts decimal, hexadecimal and octal formats through the following
input formats (where n is any valid hexadecimal, octal or decimal number):
0xn (CLI assumes hexadecimal format)
0n (CLI assumes octal format with leading zeros)
n (CLI assumes decimal format)

Table 4. Parameter Descriptions (Continued)

Parameter Description
ipv6-address FE80:0000:0000:0000:020F:24FF:FEBF:DBCB, or
FE80:0:0:0:20F:24FF:FEBF:DBCB, or
FE80::20F24FF:FEBF:DBCB, or
FE80:0:0:0:20F:24FF:128:141:49:32
For additional information, refer to RFC 3513.
Interface or slot/port Valid slot and port number separated by a forward slash. For example, 0/1 represents slot 0 and port 1.
Logical Interface Represents a logical slot and port number. This is applicable in the case of a port-channel (LAG). You can use
the logical slot/port to configure the port-channel.
Character strings Use double quotation marks to identify character strings, for example, System Name with Spaces. An
empty string () is not valid.

slot/port Naming Convention

The EdgeSwitch software references physical entities such as cards and ports using a slot/port naming
convention. The software also uses this convention to identify certain logical entities, such as Port-Channel
interfaces.
The slot number has two uses. In the case of physical ports, it identifies the card containing the ports. In the
case of logical and CPU ports it also identifies the type of interface or port.
Table 5. Types of Slots
Parameter Description
Physical slot numbers Physical slot numbers begin with zero, and are allocated up to the maximum number of physical slots.
Logical slot numbers Logical slots immediately follow physical slots and identify port-channel (LAG) or router interfaces. The value
of logical slot numbers depend on the type of logical interface and can vary from platform to platform.
CPU slot numbers The CPU slots immediately follow the logical slots.
Logical Interface Represents a logical slot and port number. This is applicable in the case of a port-channel (LAG). You can use
the logical slot/port to configure the port-channel.
Character strings Use double quotation marks to identify character strings, for example, System Name with Spaces. An
empty string () is not valid.

The port identifies the specific physical port or logical interface being managed on a given slot.
Table 6. Types of Ports
Parameter Description
Physical Ports The physical ports for each slot are numbered sequentially starting from one.
For example, port 1 on slot 0 (an internal port) for a standalone switch is 0/1, port 2 is 0/2, port 3 is 0/3, etc.
Logical Interfaces Port-channel or Link Aggregation Group (LAG) interfaces are logical interfaces only used for bridging functions.
VLAN routing interfaces are only used for routing functions.
CPU ports CPU ports are handled by the driver as one or more physical entities located on physical slots.

Using the no Form of a Command

Thenokeyword is a specific form of an existing command and does not represent a new or distinct
command. Only configuration commands have an availablenoform. Almost every configuration command
has anoform. In general, use thenoform to reverse the action of a command or reset a value back to its
default. For example, the no shutdown configuration command reverses the shutdown of an interface.
Use the command withoutnoto re-enable a disabled feature or to enable a feature that is disabled by default.

Executing show Commands

All show commands can be issued from any configuration mode (Global Configuration, Interface
Configuration, VLAN Configuration, etc.). The show commands provide information about system and
feature-specific configuration, status, and statistics. Previously, show commands could be issued only in
User EXEC or Privileged EXEC modes.

Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. 30

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Using the Command Line Interface

CLI Output Filtering

Many CLI show commands include considerable content to display to the user. This can make output
confusing and cumbersome to parse through to find the information of desired importance. The CLI
Output Filtering feature allows the user, when executing CLI show display commands, to optionally specify
arguments to filter the CLI output to display only desired information. The result is to simplify the display and
make it easier for the user to find the information the user is interested in.
The main functions of the CLI Output Filtering feature are:
Pagination Control
Supports enabling/disabling paginated output for all show CLI commands. When disabled, output
is displayed in its entirety. When enabled, output is displayed page-by-page such that content does
not scroll off the terminal screen until the user presses a key to continue. --More-- or (q)uit is
displayed at the end of each page.
When pagination is enabled, press the return key to advance a single line, press q or Q to stop
pagination, or press any other key to advance a whole page. These keys are not configurable.

Note: Although some EdgeSwitch show commands already support pagination, the implementation
is unique per command and not generic to all commands.

Output Filtering
Grep-like control for modifying the displayed output to only show the user-desired content.
Filter-displayed output to only include lines containing a specified string match.
Filter-displayed output to exclude lines containing a specified string match.
Filter-displayed output to only include lines including and following a specified string match.
Filter-displayed output to only include a specified section of the content (e.g. interface 0/1) with a
configurable end-of-section delimiter.
String matching should be case-insensitive.
Pagination, when enabled, also applies to filtered output.
Example: The following shows an example of the extensions made to the CLI show commands for the Output
Filtering feature.
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) #show running-config ?
<cr> Press enter to execute the command.
| Output filter options.
<scriptname> Script file name for writing active configuration.
all Show all the running configuration on the switch.
interface Display the running configuration for specificed interface on the
switch.
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) #show running-config | ?
begin Begin with the line that matches
exclude Exclude lines that matches
include Include lines that matches
section Display portion of lines

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Using the Command Line Interface

EdgeSwitch Modules
The EdgeSwitch software consists of flexible modules that can be applied in various combinations to
develop advanced products for Layer 2 and above. The commands and command modes available on your
switch depend on the installed modules. Additionally, for some show commands, the output fields might
change based on the modules included in the EdgeSwitch software.
The EdgeSwitch software suite includes the following modules:
Switching (Layer 2)
Routing (Layer 3)

Note: Only static routing is available. Dynamic routing protocols are not available in the EdgeSwitch
software.

Quality of Service
Management (CLI, browser-based UI, and SNMP)
IPv6 ManagementAllows management of the EdgeSwitch device through an IPv6 through an IPv6
address without requiring the IPv6 Routing package in the system. The management address can be
associated with the network port (front-panel switch ports), a routine interface (port or VLAN) and the
Service port.
Secure Management
Not all modules are available for all platforms or software releases.

Command Modes
The CLI groups commands into modes according to the command function. Each of the command modes
supports specific EdgeSwitch software commands. The commands in one mode are not available until you
switch to that particular mode, with the exception of the User EXEC mode commands. You can execute the
User EXEC mode commands in the Privileged EXEC mode.
The command prompt changes in each command mode to help you identify the current mode. Table 7
describes the command modes and the prompts visible in that mode.

Note: The command modes available on your switch depend on the software modules that are
installed.

Table 7. CLI Command Modes

Command Mode Prompt Mode Description

network protocol dhcp

This command enables the DHCPv4 client on a Network port. If the client-id optional parameter is given,
the DHCP client messages are sent with the client identifier option.
Default none
Format network protocol dhcp [client-id]
Mode Global Config

There is no support for the no form of the command network protocol dhcp client-id. To remove
the client-id option from the DHCP client messages, issue the command network protocol dhcp
without the client-id option. The command network protocol none can be used to disable the
DHCP client and client-id option on the interface.
Example: The following shows an example of the command.
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) # network protocol dhcp client-id

network mac-address
This command sets locally administered MAC addresses. The following rules apply:
Bit 6 of byte 0 (called the U/L bit) indicates whether the address is universally administered (b0) or locally
administered (b1).
Bit 7 of byte 0 (called the I/G bit) indicates whether the destination address is an individual address (b0) or a
group address (b1).

User Account Commands

This section describes the commands you use to add, manage, and delete system users. The EdgeSwitch
software has one default user account: ubnt. The ubnt user can view and configure system settings.

Note: You cannot delete the default read/write user account (ubnt). You can configure up to five additional
user accounts on the system. Additional user accounts can be read-only or read/write.

aaa authentication login

Use this command to set authentication at login. The default and optional list names created with the
command are used with the aaa authentication login command. Create a list by entering the aaa
authentication login list-name method command, where list-name is any character string
used to name this list. The method argument identifies the list of methods that the authentication algorithm
tries, in the given sequence.
The additional methods of authentication are used only if the previous method returns an error, not if there is
an authentication failure. To ensure that the authentication succeeds even if all methods return an error, specify
none as the fInal method in the command line. For example, if none is specified as an authentication method
after RADIUS, no authentication is used if the RADIUS server is down.

aaa authentication enable

Use this command to set authentication for accessing higher privilege levels. The default enable list is
enableList. It is used by console, telnet and SSH, and contains the method as enable followed by none.
The default and optional list names created with the aaa authentication enable command are used with
the enable authentication command. Create a list by entering the aaa authentication enable
list-name method command where list-name is any character string used to name this list. The method
argument identifies the list of methods that the authentication algorithm tries in the given sequence.
The user manager returns ERROR (not PASS or FAIL) for enable and line methods if no password is configured,
and moves to the next configured method in the authentication list. The method none reflects that there is no
authentication needed.

The user will only be prompted for an enable password if one is required. The following authentication methods
do not require passwords:
none
deny
enable (if no enable password is configured)
line (if no line password is configured)
Example: See the examples below.
a. aaa authentication enable default enable none
b. aaa authentication enable default line none
c. aaa authentication enable default enable radius none
d. aaa authentication enable default line tacacs none
Examples a and b do not prompt for a password, however because examples c and d contain the RADIUS and
TACACS methods, the password prompt is displayed.
If the login methods include only enable, and there is no enable password configured, then the EdgeSwitch
software does not prompt for a username. In such cases, the EdgeSwitch software only prompts for a password.
the EdgeSwitch software supports configuring methods after the local method in authentication and
authorization lists. If the user is not present in the local database, then the next configured method is tried.
The additional methods of authentication are used only if the previous method returns an error, not if it fails. To
ensure that the authentication succeeds even if all methods return an error, specify none as the final method
in the command line.
Use the command show authorization methods on page 57 to display information about the
authentication methods.

Note: Requests sent by the switch to a RADIUS server include the username $enabx$, where x is the
requested privilege level. For enable to be authenticated on RADIUS servers, add $enabx$ users to
them. The login user ID is now sent to TACACS+ servers for enable authentication.

username (Global Config)

Use the username command in Global Config mode to add a new user to the local user database. The default
privilege level is 1. Using the encrypted keyword allows the administrator to transfer local user passwords
between devices without having to know the passwords. When the password parameter is used along with
encrypted parameter, the password must be exactly 128 hexadecimal characters in length. If the password
strength feature is enabled, this command checks for password strength and returns an appropriate error if it
fails to meet the password strength criteria. Giving the optional parameter override-complexity-check
disables the validation of the password strength.

SNMP Commands
This section describes the commands you use to configure Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) on the
switch. You can configure the switch to act as an SNMP agent so that it can communicate with SNMP managers
on your network.
snmp-server
This command sets the name and the physical location of the switch, and the organization responsible for the
network. The parameters name, loc, and con can be up to 255 characters in length.
Default none
Format snmp-server {sysname name | location loc | contact con}
Mode Global Config

snmp-server community
This command adds (and names) a new SNMP community, and optionally sets the access mode, allowed IP
address, and create a view for the community.

Note: Community names in the SNMP Community Table must be unique. When making multiple entries
using the same community name, the first entry is kept and processed and all duplicate entries are ignored.
Default Public and private, which you can rename.
Default values for the remaining four community names are blank.
Format snmp-server community community-name [{ro | rw |su }] [ipaddress ip-address]
[viewview-name]
Mode Global Config

Parameter Definition
community-name A name associated with the switch and with a set of SNMP managers that manage it with a specified
privileged level. The length of community-name can be up to 16 case-sensitive characters.
ro | rw | su The access mode of the SNMP community, which can be public (Read-Only/RO), private (Read-Write/
RW), or Super User (SU).
ip-address The associated community SNMP packet sending address and is used along with the client IP mask
value to denote a range of IP addresses from which SNMP clients may use that community to access
the device. A value of 0.0.0.0 allows access from any IP address. Otherwise, this value is ANDed with the
mask to determine the range of allowed client IP addresses.
view-name The name of the view to create or update.

radius server attribute 4

This command specifies the RADIUS client to use the NAS-IP Address attribute in the RADIUS requests. If the
specific IP address is configured while enabling this attribute, the RADIUS client uses that IP address while
sending NAS-IP-Address attribute in RADIUS communication.
Format radius server attribute 4 [ipaddr]
Mode Global Config

Parameter Definition
4 NAS-IP-Address attribute to be used in RADIUS requests.
ipaddr The IP address of the server.

no radius server attribute 4

The no version of this command disables the NAS-IP-Address attribute global parameter for RADIUS client. When
this parameter is disabled, the RADIUS client does not send the NAS-IP-Address attribute in RADIUS requests.

Mode Global Config

Example: The following shows an example of the command.

(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Config) #radius server attribute 4 192.168.37.60
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Config) #radius server attribute 4

radius server host

This command configures the IP address or DNS name to use for communicating with the RADIUS server of a
selected server type. While configuring the IP address or DNS name for the authenticating or accounting servers,
you can also configure the port number and server name. If the authenticating and accounting servers are
configured without a name, the command uses the Default_RADIUS_Auth_Server and Default_RADIUS_Acct_
Server as the default names, respectively. The same name can be configured for more than one authenticating
servers and the name should be unique for accounting servers. The RADIUS client allows the configuration of a
maximum of 32 authenticating and accounting servers.
If you use the auth parameter, the command configures the IP address or hostname to use to connect to a
RADIUS authentication server. You can configure up to 3 servers per RADIUS client. If the maximum number of
configured servers is reached, the command fails until you remove one of the servers by issuing thenoform of
the command. If you use the optional port parameter, the command configures the UDP port number to use
when connecting to the configured RADIUS server. The port number range is 1-65535, with a default of 1812.

Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. 83

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Management Commands

Note: To reconfigure a RADIUS authentication server to use the default UDP port, set the port
parameter to 1812.

If you use the acct parameter, the command configures the IP address or hostname to use for the RADIUS
accounting server. You can only configure one accounting server. If an accounting server is currently configured,
use thenoform of the command to remove it from the configuration. The IP address or hostname you specify
must match that of a previously configured accounting server. If you use the optional port parameter, the
command configures the UDP port to use when connecting to the RADIUS accounting server. If a port is already
configured for the accounting server, the new port replaces the previously configured port. The port value
must be in the range 0-65535, with a default of 1813.

Note: To reconfigure a RADIUS accounting server to use the default UDP port, set the port parameter
to1813.
Format radius server host {auth | acct} {ipaddr|dnsname} [name servername] [port 0-65535]
Mode Global Config

Parameter Definition
ipaddr The IP address of the server.
dnsname The DNS name of the server.
0-65535 The port number to use to connect to the specified RADIUS server.
servername The alias name to identify the server.

no radius server host

Thenoform of this command deletes the configured server entry from the list of configured RADIUS servers.
If the RADIUS authenticating server being removed is the active server in the servers that are identified by the
same server name, then the RADIUS client selects another server for making RADIUS transactions. If auth is
used, the previously configured RADIUS authentication server is removed from the configuration. Similarly,
if acct is used, the previously configured RADIUS accounting server is removed from the configuration. The
ipaddr|dnsname parameter must match the IP address or DNS name of the previously configured RADIUS
authentication/accounting server.
Format no radius server host {auth | acct} {ipaddr|dnsname}
Mode Global Config

Example: The following shows an example of the command.

radius server key

This command configures the key to be used in RADIUS client communication with the specified server.
Depending on whether the auth or acct keyword is used, the shared secret is configured for the RADIUS
authentication or RADIUS accounting server. The IP address or hostname provided must match a previously
configured server. When this command is executed, the secret is prompted.
Text-based configuration supports RADIUS servers secrets in encrypted and non-encrypted format. When you save
the configuration, these secret keys are stored in encrypted format only. If you want to enter the key in encrypted
format, enter the key along with the encrypted keyword. In the show running-config commands display,
these secret keys are displayed in encrypted format. You cannot show these keys in plain text format.

TACACS+ Commands
TACACS+ provides access control for networked devices via one or more centralized servers. Similar to RADIUS,
this protocol simplifies authentication by making use of a single database that can be shared by many clients
on a large network. TACACS+ is based on the TACACS protocol (described in RFC1492) but additionally provides
for separate authentication, authorization, and accounting services. The original protocol was UDP based with
messages passed in clear text over the network; TACACS+ uses TCP to ensure reliable delivery and a shared key
configured on the client and daemon server to encrypt all messages.
tacacs-server host
Use the tacacs-server host command in Global Configuration mode to configure a TACACS+ server.
This command enters into the TACACS+ configuration mode. The ip-address|hostname parameter is the
IP address or hostname of the TACACS+ server. To specify multiple hosts, multiple tacacs-server host
commands can be used.
Format tacacs-server host ip-address|hostname
Mode Global Config

no tacacs-server host
Use the no tacacs-server host command to delete the specified hostname or IP address.
Theipaddress|hostname parameter is the IP address of the TACACS+ server.
Format no tacacs-server host ip-address|hostname
Mode Global Config

tacacs-server key
Use the tacacs-server key command to set the authentication and encryption key for all TACACS+
communications between the switch and the TACACS+ daemon. The key-string parameter has a range of
0-128 characters and specifies the authentication and encryption key for all TACACS communications between
the switch and the TACACS+ server. This key must match the key used on the TACACS+ daemon.
Text-based configuration supports TACACS servers secrets in encrypted and non-encrypted format. When you
save the configuration, these secret keys are stored in encrypted format only. If you want to enter the key in
encrypted format, enter the key along with the encrypted keyword. The show running-config command
displays these secret keys in encrypted format. You cannot show these keys in plain text format.
Format tacacs-server key [key-string | encrypted key-string]
Mode Global Config

no tacacs-server key
Use the no tacacs-server key command to disable the authentication and encryption key for all
TACACS+ communications between the switch and the TACACS+ daemon. The key-string parameter has a
range of 0-128 characters. This key must match the key used on the TACACS+ daemon.
Format no tacacs-server key key-string
Mode Global Config

tacacs-server source-interface
Use this command in Global Configuration mode to configure the source interface (Source IP address) for
TACACS+ server configuration. The selected source-interface IP address is used for filling the IP header of
management protocol packets. This allows security devices (firewalls) to identify the source packets coming from
the specific switch.
If a source-interface is not specified, the primary IP address of the originating (outbound) interface is used as the
source address.
Format tacacs-server source-interface {slot/port | vlan vlan-id}
Mode Global Config

Parameter Definition
slot/port The unit identifier assigned to the switch, in slot/port format.
vlan-id Configures the VLAN interface to use as the source IP address. The range of the VLAN ID is 1 to 4093.

Configuration Scripting Commands

Configuration Scripting allows you to generate text-formatted script files representing the current configuration
of a system. You can upload these configuration script files to a PC or UNIX system and edit them. Then, you can
download the edited files to the system and apply the new configuration. You can apply configuration scripts to
one or more switches with no or minor modifications.
Use the show running-config command (see show running-config on page 120) to capture the
running configuration into a script. Use the copy command (see copy on page 140) to transfer the
configuration script to or from the switch.
You should use scripts on systems with default configuration; however, you are not prevented from applying
scripts on systems with non-default configurations.
Scripts must conform to the following rules:
The file extension must be .scr.
A maximum of ten scripts are allowed on the switch.
The combined size of all script files on the switch shall not exceed 2048 KB.
The maximum number of configuration file command lines is 2000.
You can type single-line annotations at the command prompt to use when you write test or configuration
scripts to improve script readability. The exclamation point (!) character flags the beginning of a comment. The
comment flag character can begin a word anywhere on the command line, and all input following this character
is ignored. Any command line that begins with ! is recognized as a comment line and ignored by the parser.
The following lines show an example of a script:
! Script file for displaying management access

show telnet !Displays the information about remote connections

! Display information about direct connections

show serial

! End of the script file!

Note: To specify a blank password for a user in the configuration script, you must specify it as a space
within quotes. For example, to change the password for user jane from a blank password to hello, the
script entry is as follows:
users passwd jane

hello
hello

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Utility Commands

AutoInstall Commands
The AutoInstall feature enables the automatic update of the image and configuration of the switch. This feature
enables touchless or low-touch provisioning to simplify switch configuration and imaging.
AutoInstall includes the following support:
Downloading an image from TFTP server using DHCP option 125. The image update can result in a
downgrade or upgrade of the firmware on the switch.
Automatically downloading a configuration file from a TFTP server when the switch is booted with no saved
configuration file.
Automatically downloading an image from a TFTP server in the following situations:
When the switch is booted with no saved configuration found.
When the switch is booted with a saved configuration that has AutoInstall enabled.
When the switch boots and no configuration file is found, it attempts to obtain an IP address from a network
DHCP server. The response from the DHCP server includes the IP address of the TFTP server where the image and
configuration flies are located.
After acquiring an IP address and the additional relevant information from the DHCP server, the switch
downloads the image file or configuration file from the TFTP server. A downloaded image is automatically
installed. A downloaded configuration file is saved to non-volatile memory.

Note: AutoInstall from a TFTP server can run on any IP interface, including the network port, service
port, and in-band routing interfaces (if supported). To support AutoInstall, the DHCP client is enabled
operationally on the service port, if it exists, or the network port, if there is no service port.

boot autoinstall
Use this command to operationally start or stop the AutoInstall process on the switch. The command is non-
persistent and is not saved in the startup or running configuration file.
Default stopped
Format boot autoinstall {start | stop}
Mode Privileged EXEC

boot host retrycount

Use this command to set the number of attempts to download a configuration file from the TFTP server.
Default 3
Format boot host retrycount 1-3
Mode Privileged EXEC

no boot host retrycount

Use this command to set the number of attempts to download a configuration file to the default value.
Format no boot host retrycount
Mode Privileged EXEC

boot host dhcp

Use this command to enable AutoInstall on the switch for the next reboot cycle. The command does not change
the current behavior of AutoInstall and saves the command to NVRAM.

of all zero in the 16-byte field indicates that the vendor PN is unspecified.
Nominal Bit Rate (Mbps) The nominal bit (signaling) rate (BR, nominal) is specified in units of 100 MBd, rounded off to the
nearest 100 MBd. The bit rate includes those bits necessary to encode and delimit the signal as well as
those bits carrying data information. A value of 0 indicates that the bit rate is not specified and must
be determined from the transceiver technology. The actual information transfer rate will depend on
the encoding of the data, as defined by the encoding value.
Rev The vendor revision number (vendor rev) contains ASCII characters, left aligned and padded on the
right with ASCII spaces (20h), defining the vendors product revision number. A value of all zero in this
field indicates that the vendor revision is unspecified.

enter the MAC address and VLAN ID.
Term Definition
VLAN ID The VLAN in which the MAC address is learned.
MAC Address A unicast MAC address for which the switch has forwarding and or filtering information. The format is
six 2-digit hexadecimal numbers that are separated by colons, for example 01:23:45:67:89:AB.
Interface The port through which this address was learned.
Interface Index This object indicates the ifIndex of the interface table entry associated with this port.
Status The status of this entry. The meanings of the values are:
Static The value of the corresponding instance was added by the system or a user when a static MAC
filter was defined. It cannot be relearned.
Learned The value of the corresponding instance was learned by observing the source MAC
addresses of incoming traffic, and is currently in use.
Management The value of the corresponding instance (system MAC address) is also the value of an
existing instance of dot1dStaticAddress. It is identified with interface 0/1. and is currently used when
enabling VLANs for routing.
Self The value of the corresponding instance is the address of one of the switchs physical interfaces
(the systems own MAC address).

process cpu threshold

Use this command to configure the CPU utilization thresholds. The Rising and Falling thresholds are specified
as a percentage of CPU resources. The utilization monitoring time period can be configured from 5 seconds to
86400 seconds in multiples of 5 seconds. The CPU utilization threshold configuration is saved across a switch
reboot. Configuring the falling utilization threshold is optional. If the falling CPU utilization parameters are not
configured, then they take the same value as the rising CPU utilization parameters.
Format process cpu threshold type total rising 1-100 interval
Mode Global Config

Parameter Description
rising threshold The percentage of CPU resources that, when exceeded for the configured rising interval, triggers a
notification. The range is 1 to 100. The default is 0 (disabled).
rising interval The duration of the CPU rising threshold violation, in seconds, that must be met to trigger a
notification. The range is 5 to 86400. The default is 0 (disabled).
falling threshold The percentage of CPU resources that, when usage falls below this level for the configured interval,
triggers a notification. The range is 1 to 100. The default is 0 (disabled).
A notification is triggered when the total CPU utilization falls below this level for a configured period
of time. The falling utilization threshold notification is made only if a rising threshold notification was
previously done. The falling utilization threshold must always be equal or less than the rising threshold
value. The CLI does not allow setting the falling threshold to be greater than the rising threshold.
falling interval The duration of the CPU falling threshold, in seconds, that must be met to trigger a notification. The
range is 5 to 86400. The default is 0 (disabled).

show running-config
Use this command to display or capture the current setting of different protocol packages supported on the
switch. This command displays or captures commands with settings and configurations that differ from the
default value. To display or capture the commands with settings and configurations that are equal to the default
value, include the all option.

Note:The show running-config command does not display the User Password, even if you set one
different from the default.

The output is displayed in script format, which can be used to configure another switch with the same
configuration. If the optional scriptname is provided with a file name extension of .scr, the output is
redirected to a script file.

Note: If you issue the show running-config command from a serial connection, remote access to
the switch through remote connections (such as Telnet) is suspended while the output is being generated
and displayed.

Note: If you use a text-based configuration file, the show running-config command only displays
configured physical interfaces (i.e., if any interface only contains the default configuration, that interface
will be skipped from the show running-config command output). This is true for any configuration mode
that contains nothing but default configuration. That is, the command to enter a particular config mode,
followed immediately by its exit command, are both omitted from the show running-config
command output (and hence from the startup-config file when the system configuration is saved.)

Use the following keys to navigate the command output.

System Utility and Clear Commands

This section describes the commands you use to help troubleshoot connectivity issues and to restore various
configurations to their factory defaults.
traceroute
Use the traceroute command to discover the routes that IPv4 or IPv6 packets actually take when traveling
to their destination through the network on a hop-by-hop basis. Traceroute continues to provide a synchronous
response when initiated from the CLI.
The user may specify the source IP address of the traceroute probes. Recall that traceroute works by sending
packets that are expected not to reach their final destination, but instead trigger ICMP error messages back to
the source address from each hop along the forward path to the destination. By specifying the source address,
the user can determine where along the forward path there is no route back to the source address. Note that
this is only useful if the route from source to destination and destination to source is symmetric.) It would be
common, for example, to send a traceroute from an edge router to a target higher in the network using a source
address from a host subnet on the edge router. This would test reachability from within the network back to
hosts attached to the edge router.
In the CLI, the user may specify the source either as an IPv4 address, IPv6 address, or as a routing interface. When
the source is specified as a routing interface, the traceroute is sent using the primary IPv4 address on the source
interface. With SNMP, the source must be specified as an address. The source cannot be specified in the web UI.
The EdgeSwitch software will not accept an incoming packet, such as a traceroute response, that arrives on a
routing interface if the packets destination address is on one of the out-of-band management interfaces (service
port or network port). Similarly, the EdgeSwitch software will not accept a packet that arrives on a management
interface if the packets destination is an address on a routing interface. Thus, it would be futile to send a
traceroute on a management interface using a routing interface address as source, or to send a traceroute on a
routing interface using a management interface as source. When sending a traceroute on a routing interface, the
source must be that routing interface or another routing interface. When sending a traceroute on a management
interface, the source must be on that management interface. For this reason, the user cannot specify the source
as a management interface or management interface address. When sending a traceroute on a management
interface, the user should not specify a source address, but instead let the system select the source address from
the outgoing interface.
Default count: 3 probes
interval: 3 seconds
size: 0 bytes
port: 33434
maxTtl: 30 hops
maxFail: 5 probes
initTtl: 1 hop
Format traceroute {ip-address | [ipv6] {ipv6-address | hostname}}
[initTtl initTtl] [maxTtl maxTtl] [maxFail maxFail]
[interval interval] [count count] [port port] [size size]
[source {ip-address | ipv6-address | slot/port}]
Mode Privileged EXEC

Using the options described below, you can specify the initial and maximum time-to-live (TTL) in probe packets,
the maximum number of failures before termination, the number of probes sent for each TTL, and the size of
each probe.
Parameter Description
ip-address The IP address value should be a valid IP address.
ipv6-address The IPv6 address value should be a valid IPv6 address.
hostname The hostname value should be a valid hostname.
ipv6 The optional ipv6 keyword can be used before ipv6-address or hostname. Giving the ipv6
keyword before the hostname tries it to resolve to an IPv6 address.

Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. 136

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Utility Commands

Parameter Description
initTtl Use initTtl to specify the initial time-to-live (TTL), the maximum number of router hops between
the local and remote system. Range is 1 to 255.
maxTtl Use maxTtle to specify the maximum TTL. Range is 1 to 255.
maxFail Use maxFail to terminate the traceroute after failing to receive a response for this number of
consecutive probes. Range is 1 to 255.
interval Use the optional interval parameter to specify the time between probes, in seconds. If a response
is not received within this interval, then traceroute considers that probe a failure (printing *) and sends
the next probe. If traceroute does receive a response to a probe within this interval, then it sends the
next probe immediately. Range is 1 to 60 seconds.
count Use the optional count parameter to specify the number of probes to send for each TTL value.
Range is 1 to 10 probes.
port Use the optional port parameter to specify destination UDP port of the probe. This should be an
unused port on the remote destination system. Range is 1 to 65535.
size Use the optional size parameter to specify the size, in bytes, of the payload of the Echo Requests
sent. Range is 0 to 65507 bytes.
source Use the optional source parameter to specify the source IP address or interface for the traceroute.

The following are examples of the CLI command.

Example: traceroute success:
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) # traceroute 10.240.10.115 initTtl 1 maxTtl 4 maxFail 0 interval 1 count 3
port 33434 size 43

2 10.240.10.115 0 msec 0 msec 0 msec

Hop Count = 1 Last TTL = 2 Test attempt = 6 Test Success = 6

Example: traceroute IPv6 success:

(UBNT EdgeSwitch) # traceroute 2001::2 initTtl 1 maxTtl 4 maxFail 0 interval 1 count 3 port
33434 size 43

Traceroute to 2001::2 hops max 43 byte packets:

1 2001::2 708 msec 41 msec 11 msec

The above command can also be execute with the optional ipv6 parameter as follows:

(UBNT EdgeSwitch) # traceroute ipv6 2001::2 initTtl 1 maxTtl 4 maxFail 0 interval 1 count 3 port
33434 size 43

Example: traceroute failure:

to identify the source packets coming from the specific switch. If a source interface is not specified, the primary
IP address of the originating (outbound) interface is used as the source address. If the configured interface is
down, the DNS client falls back to its default behavior.

Serviceability Packet Tracing Commands

These commands improve the capability of network engineers to diagnose conditions affecting the EdgeSwitch.

CAUTION: The output of debug commands can be long and may adversely affect system performance.

capture start
Use the command capture start to manually start capturing CPU packets for packet trace. The packet capture
operates in three modes: capture file, remote capture, and capture line.
The command is not persistent across a reboot cycle.
Format capture start [{all|receive|transmit}]
Mode Privileged EXEC

Parameter Description
all Capture all traffic.
receive Capture only received traffic.
transmit Capture only transmitted traffic.

capture stop
Use the command capture stop to manually stop capturing CPU packets for packet trace.
Format capture stop
Mode Privileged EXEC

capture file|remote|line
Use this command to configure file capture options. The command is persistent across a reboot cycle.
Format capture {file|remote|line}
Mode Global Config

Parameter Description
file In the capture file mode, the captured packets are stored in a file on NVRAM. The maximum file size
defaults to 524288 bytes. The switch can transfer the file to a TFTP server via TFTP, SFTP, SCP via CLI,
and SNMP.
The file is formatted in pcap format, is named cpuPktCapture.pcap, and can be examined using
network analyzer tools such as Wireshark or Ethereal. Starting a file capture automatically
terminates any remote capture sessions and line capturing. After the packet capture is activated,
the capture proceeds until the capture file reaches its maximum size, or until the capture is stopped
manually using the CLI command capture stop.
remote In the remote capture mode, the captured packets are redirected in real time to an external PC
running the Wireshark tool for Microsoft Windows. A packet capture server runs on the switch side
and sends the captured packets via a TCP connection to the Wireshark tool.
The remote capture can be enabled or disabled using the CLI. There should be a Windows PC with the
Wireshark tool to display the captured file. When using the remote capture mode, the switch does not
store any captured data locally on its file system.
You can configure the IP port number for connecting Wireshark to the switch. The default port number
is 2002. If a firewall is installed between the Wireshark PC and the switch, then these ports must be
allowed to pass through the firewall. You must configure the firewall to allow the Wireshark PC to
initiate TCP connections to the switch.
If the client successfully connects to the switch, the CPU packets are sent to the client PC, then
Wireshark receives the packets and displays them. This continues until the session is terminated by
either end.
Starting a remote capture session automatically terminates the file capture and line capturing.
line In the capture line mode, the captured packets are saved into the RAM and can be displayed on the
CLI. Starting a line capture automatically terminates any remote capture session and capturing into
a file. There is a maximum 128 packets of maximum 128 bytes that can be captured and displayed in
line mode.

packets that are received or transmitted through the CPU. A maximum 128 packets can be saved into RAM per
capturing session. A maximum 128 bytes per packet can be saved into the RAM. If a packet holds more than 128
bytes, only the first 128 bytes are saved; data more than 128 bytes is skipped and cannot be displayed in the CLI.
Capturing packets is stopped automatically when 128 packets are captured and have not yet been displayed
during a capture session. Captured packets are not retained after a reload cycle.

Cable Test Command

The cable test feature enables you to determine the cable connection status on a selected port.

Note: The cable test feature is supported only for copper cable. It is not supported for optical fiber cable.
If the port has an active link while the cable test is run, the link can go down for the duration of the test.

cablestatus
This command returns the status of the specified port.
Format cablestatus slot/port
Mode Privileged EXEC

Term Description
Cable Status One of the following statuses is returned:
Normal The cable is working correctly.
Open The cable is disconnected or there is a faulty connector.
Short There is an electrical short in the cable.
Cable Test Failed The cable status could not be determined. The cable may in fact be working.
Cable Length If this feature is supported by the PHY for the current link speed, the cable length is displayed as a
range between the shortest estimated length and the longest estimated length. Note that if the link
is down and a cable is attached to a 10/100 Ethernet adapter, then the cable status may display as
Open or Short because some Ethernet adapters leave unused wire pairs unterminated or grounded.
Unknown is displayed if the cable length could not be determined.

Statistics Application Commands

The statistics application gives you the ability to query for statistics on port utilization, flow-based and packet
reception on programmable time slots. The statistics application collects the statistics at a configurable time
range. You can specify the port number(s) or a range of ports for statistics to be displayed. The configured time
range applies to all ports. Detailed statistics are collected between a specified time range in date and time
format. You can define the time range as having an absolute time entry and/or a periodic time. For example, you
can specify the statistics to be collected and displayed between 9:00 12 NOV 2011 (START) and 21:00 12 NOV
2012 (END) or schedule it on every Mon, Wed, and Fri 9:00 (START) to 21:00 (END).
You can receive the statistics in the following ways:
User requests through the CLI for a set of counters.
Configuring the device to display statistics using syslog or email alert. The syslog or email alert messages are
sent by the statistics application at END time.
You can configure the device to display statistics on the console. The collected statistics are presented on the
console at END time.

media-type
Use this command to change between fiber and copper mode on the Combo port.
Combo Port: A port or an interface that can operate in either copper or in fiber mode.
Copper and Fiber port: A port that uses copper a medium for communication (for example, RJ45 ports). A
fiber port uses the fiber optics as a medium for communication (for example, example SFP ports).
Default Auto-select, SFP preferred
Format media-type {auto-select | rj45 | sfp }
Mode Interface Config

The following modes are supported by the media-type command.

Auto-select, SFP preferred: The medium is selected automatically based on the physical medium presence.
However, when both the fiber and copper links are connected, the fiber link takes precedence and the fiber
link is up.
Auto-select, RJ45 preferred: The medium is selected automatically based on the physical medium presence.
However, when both the fiber and copper links are connected, the copper link takes precedence and the
copper link is up.
SFP: Only the fiber medium works. The copper medium is always down.
RJ45: Only the copper medium works. The fiber medium is always down.
no media-type
Use this command to revert the media-type configuration and configure the default value on the interface.
Format no media-type
Mode Interface Config

mtu
Use the mtu command to set the maximum transmission unit (MTU) size, in bytes, for frames that ingress or
egress the interface. You can use the mtu command to configure jumbo frame support for physical and port-
channel (LAG) interfaces. For the standard EdgeSwitch implementation, the MTU size is a valid integer between
15229216 for tagged packets and a valid integer between 15189216 for untagged packets.

Note: To receive and process packets, the Ethernet MTU must include any extra bytes that Layer-2 headers
might require. To configure the IP MTU size, which is the maximum size of the IP packet (IP Header + IP
payload), see ip mtu on page 324.
Default 1518 (untagged)
Format mtu 1518-12288

speed
Use this command to enable or disable auto-negotiation and set the speed that will be advertised by that port.
The half-duplex and full-duplex parameters allow you to set the advertised speed for half-duplex
and full-duplex modes.
Use the auto keyword to enable auto-negotiation on the port. Use the command without the auto
keyword to ensure auto-negotiation is disabled and to set the port speed and mode according to the command
values. If auto-negotiation is disabled, the speed and duplex mode must be set.
Default Auto-negotiation is enabled.

Spanning Tree Protocol Commands

This section describes the commands you use to configure Spanning Tree Protocol (STP). STP helps prevent
network loops, duplicate messages, and network instability.

Notes:
STP is enabled on the switch and on all ports and LAGs by default.
If STP is disabled, the system does not forward BPDU messages.

spanning-tree
This command sets the spanning-tree operational mode to enabled.

Private VLAN Commands

This section describes the commands you use for private VLANs. Private VLANs provides Layer-2 isolation
between ports that share the same broadcast domain. In other words, it allows a VLAN broadcast domain to
be partitioned into smaller point-to-multipoint subdomains. The ports participating in a private VLAN can be
located anywhere in the Layer-2 network.

Voice VLAN Commands

This section describes the commands you use for Voice VLAN. Voice VLAN enables switch ports to carry voice
traffic with defined priority so as to enable separation of voice and data traffic coming onto the port. The benefits
of using Voice VLAN is to ensure that the sound quality of an IP phone could be safeguarded from deteriorating
when the data traffic on the port is high.
Also the inherent isolation provided by VLANs ensures that inter-VLAN traffic is under management control and
that network- attached clients cannot initiate a direct attack on voice components. QoS-based on IEEE 802.1P class
of service (CoS) uses classification and scheduling to sent network traffic from the switch in a predictable manner.
The system uses the source MAC of the traffic traveling through the port to identify the IP phone dataflow.
voice vlan (Global Config)
Use this command to enable the Voice VLAN capability on the switch.
Default disabled
Format voice vlan
Mode Global Config

no voice vlan (Global Config)

Use this command to disable the Voice VLAN capability on the switch.
Format no voice vlan
Mode Global Config

voice vlan (Interface Config)

Use this command to enable the Voice VLAN capability on the interface or range of interfaces.
Default disabled
Format voice vlan {vlan-id id | dot1p priority | none | untagged}
Mode Interface Config

You can configure Voice VLAN in one of four different ways:

Parameter Description
vlan-id id Configure the IP phone to forward all voice traffic through the specified VLAN. Valid VLAN ID range is
1-4093 (the maximum supported by the platform).
dot1p priority Configure the IP phone to use 802.1p priority tagging for voice traffic and to use the default native
VLAN (VLAN 0) to carry all traffic. Valid priority range is 0 to 7.
none Allow the IP phone to use its own configuration to send untagged voice traffic.
untagged Configure the phone to send untagged voice traffic.

no voice vlan (Interface Config)

Use this command to disable the Voice VLAN capability on the interface.
Format no voice vlan
Mode Interface Config

Protected Ports Commands

This section describes commands you use to configure and view protected ports on a switch. Protected ports do
not forward traffic to each other, even if they are on the same VLAN. However, protected ports can forward traffic
to all unprotected ports in their group. Unprotected ports can forward traffic to both protected and unprotected
ports. Ports are unprotected by default.
If an interface is configured as a protected port, and you add that interface to a Port Channel or Link Aggregation
Group (LAG), the protected port status becomes operationally disabled on the interface, and the interface
follows the configuration of the LAG port. However, the protected port configuration for the interface remains
unchanged. Once the interface is no longer a member of a LAG, the current configuration for that interface
automatically becomes effective.
switchport protected (Global Config)
Use this command to create a protected port group. The groupid parameter identifies the set of protected
ports. Use the name name pair to assign a name to the protected port group. The name can be up to 32
alphanumeric characters long, including blanks. The default is blank.

Note: Port protection occurs within a single switch. Protected port configuration does not affect traffic
between ports on two different switches. No traffic forwarding is possible between two protected ports.

Default unprotected
Format switchport protected groupid name name
Mode Global Config

no switchport protected (Global Config)

Use this command to remove a protected port group. The groupid parameter identifies the set of protected
ports.
Format no switchport protected groupid

GARP Commands
This section describes the commands you use to configure Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP) and
view GARP status. The commands in this section affect both GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) and GARP
Multicast Registration Protocol (GMRP). GARP is a protocol that allows client stations to register with the switch
for membership in VLANS (by using GVMP) or multicast groups (by using GVMP).
set garp timer join
This command sets the GVRP join time per GARP for one interface, a range of interfaces, or all interfaces. Join
time is the interval between the transmission of GARP Protocol Data Units (PDUs) registering (or reregistering)
membership for a VLAN or multicast group. This command has an effect only when GVRP is enabled. The time is
from 10 to 100 (centiseconds). The value 20 centiseconds is 0.2 seconds.
Default 20
Format set garp timer join 10-100

set garp timer leave

This command sets the GVRP leave time for one interface, a range of interfaces, or all interfaces or all ports and
only has an effect when GVRP is enabled. Leave time is the time to wait after receiving an unregister request for
a VLAN or a multicast group before deleting the VLAN entry. This can be considered a buffer time for another
station to assert registration for the same attribute in order to maintain uninterrupted service. The leave time is
20 to 600 (centiseconds). The value 60 centiseconds is 0.6 seconds. The leave time must be greater than or equal
to three times the join time.
Default 60
Format set garp timer leave 20-600
Mode Interface Config
Global Config

no set garp timer leave

This command sets the GVRP leave time on all ports or a single port to the default and only has an effect when
GVRP is enabled.
Format no set garp timer leave
Mode Interface Config

set garp timer leaveall

This command sets how frequently Leave All PDUs are generated. A Leave All PDU indicates that all registrations
will be unregistered. Participants would need to rejoin in order to maintain registration. The value applies
per port and per GARP participation. The time may range from 200 to 6000 (centiseconds). The value 1000
centiseconds is 10 seconds. You can use this command on all ports (Global Config mode), or on a single port or
a range of ports (Interface Config mode) and it only has an effect only when GVRP is enabled. The leave all time

GMRP Commands
This section describes the commands you use to configure and view GARP Multicast Registration Protocol
(GMRP) information. Like IGMP Snooping, GMRP helps control the flooding of multicast packets. GMRP-enabled
switches dynamically register and deregister group membership information with the MAC networking devices
attached to the same segment. GMRP also allows group membership information to propagate across all
networking devices in the bridged LAN that support Extended Filtering Services.

Note: If GMRP is disabled, the system does not forward GMRP messages.

User Name The user name used by the client to authenticate to the server.
Supplicant MAC Address The supplicant device MAC address.
Session Time The time since the supplicant is logged on.
Filter ID Identifies the Filter ID returned by the RADIUS server when the client was authenticated. This is a
configured DiffServ policy name on the switch.
VLAN ID The VLAN assigned to the port.
VLAN Assigned The reason the VLAN identified in the VLAN ID field has been assigned to the port. Possible values are
RADIUS, Unauthenticated VLAN, Monitor Mode, or Default. When the VLAN Assigned reason is Default,
it means that the VLAN was assigned to the port because the P-VID of the port was that VLAN ID.
Session Timeout This value indicates the time for which the given session is valid. The time period in seconds is
returned by the RADIUS server on authentication of the port. This value is valid for the port only when
the port-control mode is not MAC-based.
Session Termination Action This value indicates the action to be taken once the session timeout expires. Possible values are
Default and Radius-Request. If the value is Default, the session is terminated and client details are
cleared. If the value is Radius-Request, then a reauthentication of the client is performed.

Storm-Control Commands
This section describes commands you use to configure storm-control and view storm-control configuration
information. A traffic storm is a condition that occurs when incoming packets flood the LAN, which creates
performance degradation in the network. The Storm-Control feature protects against this condition.
The EdgeSwitch provides broadcast, multicast, and unicast story recovery for individual interfaces. Unicast
Storm-Control protects against traffic whose MAC addresses are not known by the system. For broadcast,
multicast, and unicast storm-control, if the rate of traffic ingressing on an interface increases beyond the
configured threshold for that type, the traffic is dropped.
To configure storm-control, you will enable the feature for all interfaces or for individual interfaces, and you will
set the threshold (storm-control level) beyond which the broadcast, multicast, or unicast traffic will be dropped.
The Storm-Control feature allows you to limit the rate of specific types of packets through the switch on a per-
port, per-type, basis.
Configuring a storm-control level also enables that form of storm-control. Disabling a storm-control level (using
thenoform of the command) sets the storm-control level back to the default value and disables that form of storm-
control. Using theno form of the storm-control command (not stating a level) disables that form of storm-control
but maintains the configured level (to be active the next time that form of storm-control is enabled.)

Note: The actual rate of ingress traffic required to activate storm-control is based on the size of incoming
packets and the hard-coded average packet size of 512 bytes used to calculate a packet-per-second (pps)
rate as the forwarding-plane requires pps versus an absolute rate kbps. For example, if the configured
limit is 10%, this is converted to ~25000 pps, and this pps limit is set in forwarding plane (hardware). You
get the approximate desired output when 512-byte packets are used.

storm-control broadcast
Use this command to enable broadcast storm recovery mode for all interfaces (Global Config mode) or one or
more interfaces (Interface Config mode). If the mode is enabled, broadcast storm recovery is active and, if the
rate of L2 broadcast traffic ingressing on an interface increases beyond the configured threshold, the traffic will
be dropped. Therefore, the rate of broadcast traffic will be limited to the configured threshold.

Port-Channel/LAG (802.3ad) Commands

This section describes the commands you use to configure port-channels, which is defined in the 802.3ad
specification, and that are also known as link aggregation groups (LAGs). Link aggregation allows you to
combine multiple full-duplex Ethernet links into a single logical link. Network devices treat the aggregation
as if it were a single link, which increases fault tolerance and provides load sharing. The LAG feature initially
load shares traffic based upon the source and destination MAC address. Assign the port-channel (LAG) VLAN
membership after you create a port-channel. If you do not assign VLAN membership, the port-channel might
become a member of the management VLAN which can result in learning and switching issues.
A port-channel (LAG) interface can be either static or dynamic, but not both. All members of a port channel must
participate in the same protocols.) A static port-channel interface does not require a partner system to be able to
aggregate its member ports.

Note: If you configure the maximum number of dynamic port-channels (LAGs) that your platform
supports, additional port-channels that you configure are automatically static.

port-channel
This command configures a new port-channel (LAG) and generates a logical slot/port number for the port-
channel. The name field is a character string which can contain alphanumeric characters and - (dash
character). Use the show port channel command to display the slot/port number for the logical interface.
Instead of slot/port, lag lag-intf-num can be used as an alternate way to specify the LAG interface
where lag-intf-num is the LAG port number.

Note: Before you include a port in a port-channel, set the port physical mode. For more information, see
speed on page 199.

Format port-channel name

Mode Global Config

addport
This command adds one port to the port-channel (LAG). The first interface is a logical slot/port number of a
configured port-channel. You can add a range of ports by specifying the port range when you enter Interface
Config mode (for example: interface 0/1-0/4. Instead of slot/port, lag lag-intf-num can be used as
an alternate way to specify the LAG interface, where lag-intf-num is the LAG port number.

Note: Before adding a port to a port-channel, set the physical mode of the port. For more information, see
speed on page 199.

deleteport (Interface Config)

This command deletes a port or a range of ports from the port-channel (LAG). The interface is a logical

Port Mirroring Commands

Port mirroring, which is also known as port monitoring, selects network traffic that you can analyze with a
network analyzer, such as a SwitchProbe device or other Remote Monitoring (RMON) probe.
monitor session
This command configures a probe port and a monitored port for monitor session (port monitoring). Use the
source interface slot/port parameter to specify the interface to monitor. Use rx to monitor only
ingress packets, or use tx to monitor only egress packets. If you do not specify an {rx|tx} option, the
destination port monitors both ingress and egress packets.
A VLAN can be configured as the source to a session (all member ports of that VLAN are monitored). Remote port
mirroring is configured by adding the RSPAN VLAN ID. At the source switch, the destination is configured as the
RSPAN VLAN and at the destination switch, the source is configured as the RSPAN VLAN.

Note: The source and destination cannot be configured as remote on the same device.

The reflector-port is configured at the source switch. The reflector-port forwards the mirrored
traffic towards the destination switch.

Note: This port must be configured with RSPAN VLAN membership.

An IP/MAC ACL can be attached to a session by giving the access list number/name.
Use destination interface slot/port to specify the interface to receive the monitored traffic.
Use the mode parameter to enable the administrative mode of the session. If enabled, the probe port monitors
all the traffic received and transmitted on the physical monitored port.
Use the filter parameter to filter a specified access group either by IP address or MAC address.
Format monitor session session-id {
source {interface slot/port | vlan vlan-id | remote vlan vlan-id} [rx|tx] |
destination {interface slot/port | remote vlan vlan-id reflector-port slot/port} |
mode | filter {ip access-group {acl-id|acl-name} | mac access-group acl-name} }
Mode Global Config

Example: To configure the RSPAN VLAN source:

monitor session session-id source {interface slot/port | vlan vlan-id | remote vlan vlan-id}
[rx|tx]

Example: To the configure RSPAN VLAN destination:

monitor session session-id destination {interface slot/port | remote vlan vlan-id reflector-port
slot/port}

Example: To attach an ACL:

monitor session session-id filter {ip access-group acl-id/acl-name | mac access-group acl-name}

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Switching Commands

no monitor session
Use this command without optional parameters to remove the monitor session (port monitoring) designation
from the source probe port, the destination monitored port and all VLANs. Once the port is removed from the
VLAN, you must manually add the port to any desired VLANs. Use the source interface slot/port
parameter or destination interface to remove the specified interface from the port monitoring
session. Use the mode parameter to disable the administrative mode of the session.

Note: Since the current version of the software only supports one session, if you do not supply optional
parameters, the behavior of this command is similar to the behavior of the no monitor command.

Static MAC Filtering Commands

The commands in this section describe how to configure static MAC filtering. Static MAC filtering allows you to
configure destination ports for a static multicast MAC filter irrespective of the platform.
macfilter
This command adds a static MAC filter entry for the MAC address macaddr on the VLAN vlanid. The
value of the macaddr parameter is a 6-byte hexadecimal number in the format of b1:b2:b3:b4:b5:b6. The
restricted MAC Addresses are: 00:00:00:00:00:00, 01:80:C2:00:00:00 to 01:80:C2:00:00:0F, 01:80:C2:00:00:20 to
01:80:C2:00:00:21, and FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. The vlanid parameter must identify a valid VLAN.
The number of static MAC filters supported on the system is different for MAC filters where source ports are
configured and MAC filters where destination ports are configured:
For unicast MAC address filters and multicast MAC address filters with source port lists, the maximum number
of static MAC filters supported is 20.
For multicast MAC address filters with destination ports configured, the maximum number of static filters
supported is 256.
You can configure the following combinations:
Unicast MAC and source port (max = 20)
Multicast MAC and source port (max = 20)
Multicast MAC and destination port (only) (max = 256)
Multicast MAC and source ports and destination ports (max = 20)
Format macfilter macaddr vlanid
Mode Global Config

no macfilter
This command removes all filtering restrictions and the static MAC filter entry for the MAC address macaddr
on the VLAN vlanid. The macaddr parameter must be specified as a 6-byte hexadecimal number in the
format of b1:b2:b3:b4:b5:b6.
The vlanid parameter must identify a valid VLAN.
Format no macfilter macaddr vlanid

IGMP Snooping Configuration Commands

This section describes the commands you use to configure IGMP Snooping. The EdgeSwitch software supports
IGMP Versions 1, 2, and 3. The IGMP Snooping feature can help conserve bandwidth because it allows the switch
to forward IP multicast traffic only to connected hosts that request multicast traffic. IGMPv3 adds source filtering
capabilities to IGMP versions 1 and 2.

Note: This note clarifies the prioritization of MGMD Snooping Configurations. Many of the IGMP/MLD
Snooping commands are available both in the Interface and VLAN modes. Operationally the system
chooses or prefers the VLAN configured values over the Interface configured values for most configurations
when the interface participates in the VLAN.

set igmp
This command enables IGMP Snooping on the system (Global Config Mode), an interface, or a range of
interfaces. This command also enables IGMP Snooping on a particular VLAN (VLAN Config Mode) and can enable
IGMP Snooping on all interfaces participating in a VLAN.
If IGMP Snooping is enabled on an interface, enabling routing on the interface or giving the interface port-
channel (LAG) membership disables the interfaces IGMP Snooping functionality. IGMP Snooping functionality is
restored if routing is disabled or if port-channel (LAG) membership is removed from the interface.
The IGMP application supports the following activities:
Validation of the IP header checksum (as well as the IGMP header checksum) and discarding of the frame
upon checksum error.
Maintenance of the forwarding table entries based on the MAC address versus the IP address.
Flooding of unregistered multicast data packets to all ports in the VLAN.
The optional vlan_id parameter is supported only in VLAN Config mode.
Default disabled
Format set igmp [vlan_id]
Mode Global Config, Interface Config, VLAN Config

no set igmp
This command disables IGMP Snooping on the system, an interface, a range of interfaces, or a VLAN. The optional
vlan_id parameter is supported only in VLAN Config mode.
Format no set igmp [vlan_id]
Mode Global Config, Interface Config, VLAN Config

set igmp interfacemode

This command enables IGMP Snooping on all interfaces. If IGMP Snooping is enabled on an interface, enabling
routing on the interface or giving it membership in a port-channel (LAG), disables the interfaces IGMP Snooping
functionality. IGMP Snooping functionality is restored if routing is disabled or if port-channel (LAG) membership
is removed from the interface.
Default disabled
Format set igmp interfacemode

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Switching Commands

set igmp fast-leave

This command enables or disables IGMP Snooping fast-leave admin mode on a selected interface, a range of
interfaces, or a VLAN. Enabling fast-leave allows the switch to immediately remove the Layer-2 LAN interface
from its forwarding table entry upon receiving an IGMP leave message for that multicast group without first
sending out MAC-based general queries to the interface.
You should enable fast-leave admin mode only on VLANs where only one host is connected to each Layer-2 LAN
port. This prevents the inadvertent dropping of the other hosts that were connected to the same Layer-2 LAN
port but were still interested in receiving multicast traffic directed to that group. Also, fast-leave processing is
supported only with IGMP version 2 hosts.
The optional vlan_id parameter is supported only in VLAN Config mode.
Default disabled
Format set igmp fast-leave [vlan_id]

report from a particular group on a particular interface before deleting the interface from the entry. This value
must be greater than the IGMPv3 Maximum Response time value. The range is 2 to 3600 seconds.
The optional vlan_id parameter is supported only in VLAN Config mode.

set igmp maxresponse

This command sets the IGMP Maximum Response time for the system, on a particular interface or VLAN, or on a
range of interfaces. The Maximum Response time is the amount of time in seconds that a switch will wait after
sending a query on an interface because it did not receive a report for a particular group in that interface. This
value must be less than the IGMP Query Interval time value. The range is 1 to 25 seconds. The optional

IGMP Snooping Querier Commands

IGMP Snooping requires that one central switch or router periodically query all end-devices on the network
to announce their multicast memberships. This central device is the IGMP Querier. The IGMP query responses,
known as IGMP reports, keep the switch updated with the current multicast group membership on a port-
by-port basis. If the switch does not receive updated membership information in a timely fashion, it will stop
forwarding multicasts to the port where the end device is located.
This section describes commands used to configure and display information on IGMP Snooping Queriers on the
network and, separately, on VLANs.

Note: This note clarifies the prioritization of MGMD Snooping Configurations. Many of the IGMP/MLD
Snooping commands are available both in the Interface and VLAN modes. Operationally the system
chooses or prefers the VLAN configured values over the Interface configured values for most configurations
when the interface participates in the VLAN.

set igmp querier

Use this command to enable IGMP Snooping Querier on the system, using Global Config mode, or on a VLAN.
Using this command, you can specify the IP Address that the Snooping Querier switch should use as the source
address while generating periodic queries.
If IGMP Snooping Querier is enabled on a VLAN, disabling IGMP Snooping on the VLAN also disables the VLANs
IGMP Snooping Querier functionality. The VLANs IGMP Snooping Querier functionality is restored if IGMP
Snooping again becomes operational on the VLAN.

Note: The Querier IP Address assigned for a VLAN takes precedence over global configuration.

The IGMP Snooping Querier application supports sending periodic general queries on the VLAN to solicit
membership reports.

Address Resolution Protocol Commands

This section describes the commands you use to configure Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and to view ARP
information on the switch. ARP associates IP addresses with MAC addresses and stores the information as ARP
entries in the ARP cache.
arp
This command creates an ARP entry. The value for ipaddress is the IP address of a device on a subnet
attached to an existing routing interface. The parameter macaddr is a unicast MAC address for that device.
The format of the MAC address is six 2-digit hexadecimal numbers separated by colons; e.g., 00:06:29:32:81:40.
Format arp ipaddress macaddr
Mode Global Config

no arp
This command deletes an ARP entry. The value for ipaddress is the IP address of a device on a subnet
attached to an existing routing interface.
Format no arp ipaddress
Mode Global Config

arp cachesize
This command configures the ARP cache size. The ARP cache size value is a platform-specific integer value. The
default size also varies depending on the platform.
Format arp cachesize platform_specific_integer_value
Mode Global Config

no arp cachesize
This command sets the ARP cache size to the default (platform-dependent) value.
Format no arp cachesize
Mode Global Config

arp dynamicrenew
This command enables the ARP component to automatically renew dynamic ARP entries when they age out.
When an ARP entry reaches its maximum age, the system must decide whether to retain or delete the entry. If the
entry has recently been used to forward data packets, the system will renew the entry by sending an ARP request
to the neighbor. If the neighbor responds, the age of the ARP cache entry is reset to 0 without removing the entry
from the hardware. Traffic to the host continues to be forwarded in hardware without interruption. If the entry is
not being used to forward data packets, then the entry is deleted from the ARP cache, unless the dynamic renew
option is enabled. If the dynamic renew option is enabled, the system sends an ARP request to renew the entry.
When an entry is not renewed, it is removed from the hardware and subsequent data packets to the host trigger
an ARP request. Traffic to the host may be lost until the router receives an ARP reply from the host. Gateway
entries, entries for a neighbor router, are always renewed. The dynamic renew option applies only to host entries.
The disadvantage of enabling dynamic renew is that once an ARP cache entry is created, that cache entry
continues to take space in the ARP cache as long as the neighbor continues to respond to ARP requests, even if
no traffic is being forwarded to the neighbor. In a network where the number of potential neighbors is greater
than the ARP cache capacity, enabling dynamic renew could prevent some neighbors from communicating
because the ARP cache is full.

Format no ip routing
Mode Global Config

ip address
This command configures an IP address on an interface or range of interfaces. You can also use this command
to configure one or more secondary IP addresses on the interface by specifying the secondary option. The
command supports RFC 3021 and accepts using 31-bit prefixes on IPv4 point-to-point links. This command adds
the label IP address in the command "show ip interface" on page 326.

Note: The 31-bit subnet mask is only supported on routing interfaces. The feature is not supported on
network port and service port interfaces because the EdgeSwitch acts as a host, not a router, on these
management interfaces.
Format ip address ipaddr {subnetmask | /masklen} [secondary]
Mode Interface Config

Parameter Description
ipaddr The IP address of the interface.
subnetmask A 4-digit dotted-decimal number which represents the subnet mask of the interface.
masklen Implements RFC 3021. Using the "/" notation of the subnet mask, this is an integer that indicates the
length of the subnet mask. Range is 5 to 32 bits.

Example: The following example of the command shows the configuration of the subnet mask with an IP address
in the dotted decimal format on interface 4/1.
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) #config
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Config)#interface 4/1
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Interface 4/1)#ip address 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.254

(UBNT EdgeSwitch) #config
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Config)#interface 4/1
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Interface 4/1)#ip address 192.168.10.1 /31

no ip address
This command deletes an IP address from an interface. The value for ipaddr is the IP address of the interface
in a.b.c.d format where the range for a, b, c, and d is 1-255. The value for subnetmask is a 4-digit dotted-
decimal number which represents the subnet mask of the interface. To remove all of the IP addresses (primary
and secondary) configured on the interface, enter the command no ip address.
Format no ip address [{ipaddr subnetmask [secondary]}]
Mode Interface Config

ip address dhcp
This command enables the DHCPv4 client on an in-band interface so that it can acquire network information,
such as the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway, from a network DHCP server. When DHCP is enabled
on the interface, the system automatically deletes all manually configured IPv4 addresses on the interface.
To enable the DHCPv4 client on an in-band interface and send DHCP client messages with the client identifier
option, use the ip address dhcp client-id configuration command in interface configuration
mode.
Default disabled
Format ip address dhcp [client-id]
Mode Interface Config

Example: In the following example, DHCPv4 is enabled on interface 4/1.

(UBNT EdgeSwitch) #config
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Config)#interface 4/1
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Interface 4/1)#ip address dhcp

no ip address dhcp
This command releases a leased address and disables DHCPv4 on an interface. The no form of the
ipaddress dhcp client-id command removes the client-id option and also disables the DHCP
client on the in-band interface.
Format no ip address dhcp [client-id]
Mode Interface Config

ip default-gateway
This command manually configures a default gateway for the switch. Only one default gateway can be
configured. If you invoke this command multiple times, each command replaces the previous value.
When the system does not have a more specific route to a packets destination, it sends the packet to the default
gateway. The system installs a default IPv4 route with the gateway address as the next hop address. The route
preference is 253. A default gateway configured with this command is more preferred than a default gateway
learned from a DHCP server.
Format ip default-gateway ipaddr
Mode Global Config

Parameter Description
ipaddr The IPv4 address of an attached router.

Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. 321

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Routing Commands

Example: The following example sets the default gateway to 10.1.1.1.

(UBNT EdgeSwitch) #config
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Config)#ip default-gateway 10.1.1.1

no ip default-gateway
This command removes the default gateway address from the configuration.
Format no ip default-gateway ipaddr
Mode Interface Config

release dhcp
Use this command to force the DHCPv4 client to release the leased address from the specified interface. The
DHCP client sends a DHCP Release message telling the DHCP server that it no longer needs the IP address, and
that the IP address can be reassigned to another.
Format release dhcp slot/port
Mode Privileged EXEC

renew dhcp
Use this command to force the DHCPv4 client to immediately renew an IPv4 address lease on the specified interface.

Note: This command can be used on in-band ports as well as the service or network (out-of-band) port.

Format renew dhcp slot/port

Format renew dhcp network-port
Mode Privileged EXEC

renew dhcp service-port

Use this command to renew an IP address on a service port.
Format renew dhcp service-port
Mode Privileged EXEC

ip route
This command configures a static route. The ipaddr parameter is a valid IP address, and subnetmask is a
valid subnet mask. The nexthopip parameter is a valid IP address of the next hop router. Specifying Null0
for the nexthopip parameter adds a static reject route.
The optional preference parameter is an integer value (from 1 to 255) that allows you to specify the
preference value (sometimes called administrative distance) of an individual static route. Among routes to the
same destination, the route with the lowest preference value is the route entered into the forwarding database.
By specifying the preference of a static route, you control whether a static route is more or less preferred than
routes from dynamic routing protocols. The preference also controls whether a static route is more or less
preferred than other static routes to the same destination. A route with a preference of 255 cannot be used to
forward traffic.

Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. 322

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Routing Commands

For the static routes to be visible, you must perform the following steps:
Enable IP routing globally.
Enable IP routing for the interface.
Confirm that the associated link is also up.
Default preference 1
Format ip route ipaddr subnetmask [nexthopip | Null0] [preference]
Mode Global Config

no ip route
This command deletes a single next hop to a destination static route. If you use the nexthopip parameter, the
next hop is deleted. If you use the preference value, the preference value of the static route is reset to its default.
Format no ip route ipaddr subnetmask [{nexthopip [preference] | Null0}]
Mode Global Config

ip route default
This command configures the default route. The value for nexthopip is a valid IP address of the next hop router.
The preference is an integer value from 1-255. A route with a preference of 255 cannot be used to forward traffic.
Default preference 1
Format ip route default nexthopip [preference]
Mode Global Config

no ip route default
This command deletes all configured default routes. If the optional nexthopip parameter is designated,
the specific next hop is deleted from the configured default route and if the optional preference value is
designated, the preference of the configured default route is reset to its default.
Format no ip route default [{nexthopip | preference}]
Mode Global Config

ip route distance
This command sets the default distance (preference) for static routes. Lower route distance values are preferred
when determining the best route. The ip route and ip route default commands allow you to
optionally set the distance (preference) of an individual static route. The default distance is used when no
distance is specified in these commands. Changing the default distance does not update the distance of existing
static routes, even if they were assigned the original default distance. The new default distance will only be
applied to static routes created after invoking the ip route distance command.
Default 1
Format ip route distance 1-255
Mode Global Config

ip mtu
This command sets the IP Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) on a routing interface or range of interfaces.
The IP MTU is the size of the largest IP packet that can be transmitted on the interface without fragmentation.
Forwarded packets are dropped if they exceed the IP MTU of the outgoing interface. Packets originated on the
router, such as OSPF packets, may be fragmented by the IP stack.
OSPF advertises the IP MTU in the Database Description packets it sends to its neighbors during database
exchange. If two OSPF neighbors advertise different IP MTUs, they will not form an adjacency (unless OSPF has
been instructed to ignore differences in IP MTU with the ip ospf mtu-ignore command).

Note: The IP MTU size refers to the maximum size of the IP packet (IP header + IP payload). It does not
include any extra bytes that may be required for Layer-2 headers. To receive and process packets, the
Ethernet MTU (see "mtu" on page 198) must take into account the size of the Ethernet header.

show ip route
This command displays the routing table. The ip-address specifies the network for which the route is to be
displayed and displays the best matching best-route for the address. The mask specifies the subnet mask for
the given ip-address. When you use the longer-prefixes keyword, the ip-address and mask
pair becomes the prefix, and the command displays the routes to the addresses that match that prefix. Use
the protocol parameter to specify the protocol that installed the routes. The value for protocol can be
connected or static. Use the all parameter to display all routes including best and nonbest routes. If
you do not use the all parameter, the command displays only the best route.

Note: If you use the connected keyword for protocol, the all option is not available because
there are no best or nonbest connected routes.

The columns for the routing table display the following information:
Term Definition
Code The codes for the routing protocols that created the routes.
Default Gateway The IP address of the default gateway. When the system does not have a more specific route to a
packets destination, it sends the packet to the default gateway.
IP-Address/Mask The IP-Address and mask of the destination network corresponding to this route.
Preference The administrative distance associated with this route. Routes with low values are preferred over
routes with higher values.
Metric The cost associated with this route.
via Next-Hop The outgoing router IP address to use when forwarding traffic to the next router (if any) in the path
toward the destination.
Route-Timestamp The last updated time for dynamic routes. The format of Route-Timestamp is:
Days:Hours:Minutes if days 1
Hours:Minutes:Seconds if days < 1
Interface The outgoing router interface to use when forwarding traffic to the next destination. For reject routes,
the next hop interface would be Null0 interface.
T This flag is appended to a route to indicate that it is an ECMP route, but only one of its next hops has
been installed in the forwarding table. The forwarding table may limit the number of ECMP routes or
the number of ECMP groups. When an ECMP route cannot be installed because such a limit is reached,
the route is installed with a single next hop. Such truncated routes are identified by a T after the
interface name.

Routing Policy Commands

This section describes the commands you use to configure IP routing policies on the switch.
ip policy route-map
Use this command to identify a route map to use for policy-based routing on an interface specified by
routemapname. Policy-based routing is configured on the interface that receives the packets, not on the
interface from which the packets are sent.
When a route-map applied on the interface is changed that is, if new statements are added to route-map
or match/set terms are added or removed from route-map statement, or if route-map that is applied on an
interface is removed then route-map needs to be removed from the interface and added back again in order
for the changed route-map configuration to be effective.
Format ip policy route-map-name
Mode Interface Config

Example: The following is an example of this command.

(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Config)#interface 0/1
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Interface 0/1)#
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Interface 0/1)# #ip policy route-map equal-access

In order to disable policy based routing from an interface, use thenoform of this command:
no ip policy route-map-name
ip prefix-list
To create a prefix list or add a prefix list entry, use theip prefix-listcommand in Global Configuration
mode. Prefix lists allow matching of route prefixes with those specified in the prefix list. Each prefix list includes
a sequence of prefix list entries ordered by their sequence numbers. A router sequentially examines each prefix
list entry to determine if the routes prefix matches that of the entry. An empty or nonexistent prefix list permits
all prefixes. An implicit deny is assumed if a given prefix does not match any entries of a prefix list. Once a match
or deny occurs the router does not go through the rest of the list. A prefix list may be used within a route map to
match a routes prefix using thematch ip addresscommand ( "match ip address" on page 335).
Up to 128 prefix lists may be configured. The maximum number of statements allowed in the prefix list is 64.
Default No prefix lists are configured by default. When neither thegenor theleoption is configured, the destination
prefix must match the network/length exactly. If thegeoption is configured without theleoption, any prefix
with a network mask greater than or equal to thegevalue is considered a match. Similarly, if theleoption
is configured without thegeoption, a prefix with a network mask less than or equal to thelevalue is
considered a match.
Format ip prefix-list list-name {[seq number] {permit | deny} network/length
[ge length] [lelength] | renumber renumber-interval first-statement-number}
Mode Global Configuration

Parameter Description
list-name The text name of the prefix list. Up to 32 characters.
seq number (Optional) The sequence number for this prefix list statement. Prefix list statements are ordered by this
number (lowest to highest) and applied in that order. If no sequence number is specified, the system
automatically selects a sequence number five larger than the last sequence number in the list. Two
statements may not be assigned the same sequence number. The value ranges from 1 to 4,294,967,294.
permit Permit routes whose destination prefix matches the statement.
deny Deny routes whose destination prefix matches the statement.
network/length Specifies the match criteria for routes being compared to the prefix list statement. The network can be
any valid IP prefix. The length is any IPv4 prefix length from 0 to 32.
ge length (Optional) If this option is configured, then a prefix is only considered a match if its network mask
length is greater than or equal to this value. This value must be longer than the network length and
less than or equal to 32.

Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. 333

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Routing Commands

Parameter Description
le length (Optional) If this option is configured, then a prefix is only considered a match if its network mask length is
less than or equal to this value. This value must be longer than the ge length and less than or equal to 32.
renumber (Optional) Provides the option to renumber the sequence numbers of the IP prefix list
statements with a given interval starting from a particular sequence number. The valid range for
renumberinterval is 1100, and the valid range for first-statement-number is 11000.

Example: The following example configures a prefix list that allows routes with one of two specific destination
prefixes, 172.20.0.0/16 and 192.168.1.0/24:
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(config)# ip prefix-list apple seq 10 permit 172.20.0.0/16
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(config)# ip prefix-list apple seq 20 permit 192.168.10/24

Example: The following example disallows only the default route.

(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(config)# ip prefix-list orange deny 0.0.0.0/0
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(config)# ip prefix-list orange permit 0.0.0.0/0 ge 1

no ip prefix-list
To delete a prefix list or a statement in a prefix list, use thenoform of this command. The commandnoip
prefix-list list-namedeletes the entire prefix list. To remove an individual statement from a prefix list,
you must specify the statement exactly, with all its options.
Format no ip prefix-list list-name [seq number] { permit | deny } network/length
[ge length] [le length]
Mode Global Configuration

ip prefix-list description
To apply a text description to a prefix list, use theip prefix-list descriptioncommand in Global
Configuration mode.
Default No description is configured by default.
Format ip prefix-list list-name description text
Mode Global Configuration

Parameter Description
list-name The text name of the prefix list.
description text Text description of the prefix list. Up to 80 characters.

no ip prefix-list description
To remove the text description, use thenoform of this command.
route-map
To create a route map and enter Route Map Configuration mode, use theroute-mapcommand in Global
Configuration mode. One use of a route map is to limit the redistribution of routes to a specified range of route
prefixes.
The redistribution command specifies a route map which refers to a prefix list. The prefix list identifies the
prefixes that may be redistributed. EdgeSwitch accepts up to 64 route maps.
Default No route maps are configured by default. If no permit or deny tag is given, permit is the default.
Format route-map map-tag [permit|deny] [sequence-number]

Parameter Description
map-tag Text name of the route map. Route maps with the same name are grouped together in order of their
sequence numbers. A route map name may be up to 32 characters long.
permit (Optional) Permit routes that match all of the match conditions in the route map.
deny (Optional) Deny routes that match all of the match conditions in the route map.
sequence-number (Optional) An integer used to order the set of route maps with the same name. Route maps are
ordered from lowest to greatest sequence number, with lower sequence numbers being considered
first. If no sequence number is specified, the system assigns a value ten greater than the last statement
in the route map. The range is 0 to 65,535.

To delete a route map or one of its statements, use thenoform of this command.
Format no route-map map-tag [permit|deny] [sequence-number]
Mode Global Configuration

match ip address
To configure a route map to match based on a destination prefix, use thematch ip address command
in Route Map Configuration mode. If you specify multiple prefix lists in one statement, then a match occurs if a
prefix matches any one of the prefix lists. If you configure a match ip address statement within a route
map section that already has a match ip address statement, the new prefix lists are added to the existing
set of prefix lists, and a match occurs if any prefix list in the combined set matches the prefix.
Default No match criteria are defined by default.

Format no match ip address [prefix-list prefix-list-name [prefix-list-name...]]
Mode Route Map Configuration

match ip address access-list-number | access-list-name

Use this command to configure a route map in order to match based on the match criteria configured in an IP
access-list. Note that an IP ACL must be configured before it is linked to a route-map. Actions present in an IP ACL
configuration are applied with other actions involved in route-map. If an IP ACL referenced by a route-map is
removed or rules are added or deleted from that ACL, the configuration is rejected.
If you specify multiple access lists in one statement, a match occurs if a prefix matches any one of the prefix lists.
If there are duplicate IP access-list numbers/names in this command, the duplicate configuration is ignored.
Default No match criteria are defined by default.

match mac-list
Use this command to configure a route map in order to match based on the match criteria configured in a MAC
access-list.
A MAC ACL is configured before it is linked to a route-map. Actions present in MAC ACL configuration are
applied with other actions involved in route-map. When a MAC ACL referenced by a route-map is removed, the
routemap rule is also removed and the corresponding rule is not effective.
When a MAC ACL referenced by a route-map is removed or rules are added or deleted from that ACL, the
configuration is rejected.

A route-map statement that is used for PBR is configured as permit or deny. If the statement is marked as deny,
traditional destination-based routing is performed on the packet meeting the match criteria. If the statement
is marked as permit, and if the packet meets all the match criteria, then set commands in the route-map
statement are applied. If no match is found in the route-map, the packet is not dropped; instead the packet is
forwarded using the routing decision taken by performing destination-based routing.

currently up-connected interface is used to route the packets.
This command affects all incoming packet types and is always used if configured. If the configured next-hop is
not present in the routing table, an ARP request is sent from the router. In a route-map statement, the terms set
ip next-hop and set ip default next-hop are mutually exclusive; however, set ip default
next-hop can be configured in a separate route-map statement.

Virtual LAN Routing Commands

This section describes the commands you use to view and configure VLAN routing and to view VLAN routing
status information.
vlan routing
This command enables routing on a VLAN. The vlanid value has a range of 1-4093. The interface-
ID value has a range of 1-128. Typically, you will not supply the interface-ID argument, and the system
automatically selects the interface ID. However, if you specify an interface ID, the interface ID becomes the
port number in the slot/port for the VLAN routing interface. If you select an interface ID that is already in use,
the CLI displays an error message and does not create the VLAN interface. For products that use text-based
configuration, including the interface ID in the vlan routing command for the text configuration ensures
that the slot/port for the VLAN interface stays the same across a restart. Keeping the slot/port the same ensures
that the correct interface configuration is applied to each interface when the system restarts.
Format vlan routing vlanid [interface-ID]
Mode VLAN Config

no vlan routing
This command deletes routing on a VLAN.
Format no vlan routing vlanid
Mode VLAN Config

Example 1: This example shows the command specifying a vlanid value. The interface-ID argument
is notused.
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(Vlan)#vlan 14
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(Vlan)#vlan routing 14 ?
<cr> Press enter to execute the command.
<1-24> Enter interface ID

Typically, you press Enter without supplying the interface ID value; the system automatically selects the interface
ID.
Example 2: In this example, the command specifies interface ID 51 for the VLAN 14 interface. The interface ID
becomes the port number in the slot/port for the VLAN routing interface. In this example, the slot/port is 4/51 for
the VLAN 14 interface.

IP Helper Commands
This section describes the commands to configure and monitor the IP Helper agent. IP Helper relays DHCP and
other broadcast UDP packets from a local client to one or more servers which are not on the same network at
theclient.
The IP Helper feature provides a mechanism that allows a router to forward certain configured UDP broadcast
packets to a particular IP address. This allows various applications to reach servers on nonlocal subnets, even
if the application was designed to assume a server is always on a local subnet and uses broadcast packets
(with either the limited broadcast address 255.255.255.255, or a network directed broadcast address) to reach
theserver.
The network administrator can configure relay entries both globally and on routing interfaces. Each relay entry
maps an ingress interface and destination UDP port number to a single IPv4 address (the helper address). The
network administrator may configure multiple relay entries for the same interface and UDP port, in which case
the relay agent relays matching packets to each server address. Interface configuration takes priority over global
configuration. That is, if a packets destination UDP port matches any entry on the ingress interface, the packet
is handled according to the interface configuration. If the packet does not match any entry on the ingress
interface, the packet is handled according to the global IP helper configuration.
The network administrator can configure discard relay entries, which direct the system to discard matching
packets. Discard entries are used to discard packets received on a specific interface when those packets would
otherwise be relayed according to a global relay entry. Discard relay entries may be configured on interfaces, but
are not configured globally.
In addition to configuring the server addresses, the network administrator also configures which UDP ports are
forwarded. Certain UDP port numbers can be specified by name in the UI as a convenience, but the network
administrator can configure a relay entry with any UDP port number. The network administrator may configure
relay entries that do not specify a destination UDP port. The relay agent relays assumes these entries match
packets with the UDP destination ports listed in Table 12 on page 349. This is the list of default ports.

Table 12. Default Ports - UDP Port Numbers Implied by Wildcard

Protocol UDP Port Number
IEN-116 Name Service 42
DNS 53
NetBIOS Name Server 137
NetBIOS Datagram Server 138
TACACS Server 49
Time Service 37
DHCP 67
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) 69

The system limits the number of relay entries to four times the maximum number of routing interfaces. The
network administrator can allocate the relay entries as he likes. There is no limit to the number of relay entries on
an individual interface, and no limit to the number of servers for a given {interface, UDP port} pair.
The relay agent relays DHCP packets in both directions. It relays broadcast packets from the client to one or more
DHCP servers, and relays to the client packets that the DHCP server unicasts back to the relay agent. For other
protocols, the relay agent only relays broadcast packets from the client to the server. Packets from the server
back to the client are assumed to be unicast directly to the client. Because there is no relay in the return direction
for protocols other than DHCP, the relay agent retains the source IP address from the original client packet. The
relay agent uses a local IP address as the source IP address of relayed DHCP client packets.
When a switch receives a broadcast UDP packet on a routing interface, the relay agent checks if the interface is
configured to relay the destination UDP port. If so, the relay agent unicasts the packet to the configured server
IP addresses. Otherwise, the relay agent checks if there is a global configuration for the destination UDP port. If
so, the relay agent unicasts the packet to the configured server IP addresses. Otherwise the packet is not relayed.

Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. 349

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Routing Commands

Note that if the packet matches a discard relay entry on the ingress interface, then the packet is not forwarded,
regardless of the global configuration.
The relay agent only relays packets that meet the following conditions:
The destination MAC address must be the all-ones broadcast address (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF)
The destination IP address must be the limited broadcast address (255.255.255.255) or a directed broadcast
address for the receive interface.
The IP time-to-live (TTL) must be greater than 1.
The protocol field in the IP header must be UDP (17).
The destination UDP port must match a configured relay entry.

ip helper-address (Interface Config)

Use this command to configure the relay of certain UDP broadcast packets received on a specific interface
or range of interfaces. This command can be invoked multiple times on a routing interface, either to specify
multiple server addresses for a given port number or to specify multiple port numbers handled by a
specificserver.
Default No helper addresses are configured.

Parameter Description
server-address The IPv4 unicast or directed broadcast address to which relayed UDP broadcast packets are sent. The
server address cannot be in a subnet on the interface where the relay entry is configured, and cannot
be an IP address configured on any interface of the local router.
discard Matching packets should be discarded rather than relayed, even if a global ip helper-address
configuration matches the packet.
dest-udp-port A destination UDP port number from 0 to 65535.
port name The destination UDP port may be optionally specified by its name. Whether a port is specified by its
number or its name has no effect on behavior. The names recognized are as follows:

Example: To relay DHCP packets received on interface 0/2 to two DHCP servers, 192.168.10.1 and 192.168.20.1,
use the following commands:
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)#config
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(config)#interface 0/2
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(interface 0/2)#ip helper-address 192.168.10.1 dhcp
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(interface 0/2)#ip helper-address 192.168.20.1 dhcp

Example: To relay both DHCP and DNS packets to 192.168.30.1, use the following commands:
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)#config
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(config)#interface 0/2
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(interface 0/2)#ip helper-address 192.168.30.1 dhcp
(UBNT EdgeSwitch)(interface 0/2)#ip helper-address 192.168.30.1 dns

Example: This command takes precedence over an ip helper-address command given in global
configuration mode. With the following configuration, the relay agent relays DHCP packets received on any
interface other than 0/2 and 0/17 to 192.168.40.1, relays DHCP and DNS packets received on 0/2 to 192.168.40.2,
relays SNMP traps (port 162) received on interface 0/17 to 192.168.23.1, and drops DHCP packets received
on0/17:

IPv6 Management Commands

IPv6 Management commands allow a device to be managed via an IPv6 address in a switch or IPv4 routing (i.e.,
independent from the IPv6 Routing package). For routing/IPv6 builds dual IPv4/IPv6 operation over the service
port is enabled. The EdgeSwitch has capabilities such as:
Static assignment of IPv6 addresses and gateways for the service/network ports.
The ability to ping an IPv6 link-local address over the service/network port.
Using IPv6 management commands, you can send SNMP traps and queries via the service/network port.
The user can manage a device via the network port (in addition to a routing interface or the service port).
network ipv6 enable
Use this command to enable IPv6 operation on the network port.

ping ipv6
Use this command to determine whether another computer is on the network. Ping provides a synchronous
response when initiated from the CLI and browser-based UI interfaces. To use the command, configure the
switch for network (in-band) connection. The source and target devices must have the ping utility enabled and
running on top of TCP/IP. The switch can be pinged from any IP workstation with which the switch is connected
through the default VLAN (VLAN 1), as long as there is a physical path between the switch and the workstation.
The terminal interface sends three pings to the target station. Use the ipv6-global-address|hostname
parameter to ping an interface by using the global IPv6 address of the interface. The argument slot/port
corresponds to a physical routing interface or VLAN routing interface. The keyword vlan is used to specify the
VLAN ID of the routing VLAN directly instead of a slot/port format. Use the optional size keyword to specify
the size of the ping packet.
You can utilize the ping or traceroute facilities over the service/network ports when using an IPv6 global address
ipv6-global-address|hostname. Any IPv6 global address or gateway assignments to these interfaces
will cause IPv6 routes to be installed within the IP stack such that the ping or traceroute request is routed out the
service/network port properly. When referencing an IPv6 link-local address, you must also specify the service or
network port interface by using the network parameter.

Differentiated Services Commands

This section describes the commands you use to configure QOS Differentiated Services (DiffServ).
You configure DiffServ in several stages by specifying three DiffServ components:
1. Class
a. Creating and deleting classes.
b. Defining match criteria for a class.
2. Policy
a. Creating and deleting policies
b. Associating classes with a policy
c. Defining policy statements for a policy/class combination
3. Service
a. Adding and removing a policy to/from an inbound interface
The DiffServ class defines the packet filtering criteria. The attributes of a DiffServ policy define the way the
switch processes packets. You can define policy attributes on a per-class instance basis. The switch applies these
attributes when a match occurs.
Packet processing begins when the switch tests the match criteria for a packet. The switch applies a policy to a
packet when it finds a class match within that policy.
The following rules apply when you create a DiffServ class:
Each class can contain a maximum of one referenced (nested) class
Class definitions do not support hierarchical service policies
A given class definition can contain a maximum of one reference to another class. You can combine the reference
with other match criteria. The referenced class is truly a reference and not a copy since additions to a referenced
class affect all classes that reference it. Changes to any class definition currently referenced by any other class
must result in valid class definitions for all derived classes, otherwise the switch rejects the change. You can
remove a class reference from a class definition.
The only way to remove an individual match criterion from an existing class definition is to delete the class and
re-create it.

Note: The mark possibilities for policing include CoS, IP DSCP, and IP Precedence. While the latter two
are only meaningful for IP packet types, CoS marking is allowed for both IP and non-IP packets, since it
updates the 802.1p user priority field contained in the VLAN tag of the Layer-2 packet header.

This command sets the DiffServ operational mode to active. While disabled, the DiffServ configuration is retained
and can be changed, but it is not activated. When enabled, DiffServ services are activated.

DiffServ Class Commands

Use the DiffServ class commands to define traffic classification. To classify traffic, you specify Behavior Aggregate
(BA), based on DSCP and Multi-Field (MF) classes of traffic (name, match criteria).
This set of commands consists of class creation/deletion and matching, with the class match commands
specifying Layer 3, Layer 2, and general match criteria. The class match criteria are also known as class rules, with
a class definition consisting of one or more rules to identify the traffic that belongs to the class.

Note: Once you create a class match criterion for a class, you cannot change or delete the criterion. To
change or delete a class match criterion, you must delete and re-create the entire class.

The CLI command root is class-map.

class-map
This command defines a DiffServ class of type match-all. When used without any match condition, this
command enters the class-map mode. The class-map-name is a case-sensitive alphanumeric string from 1
to 31 characters uniquely identifying an existing DiffServ class.

Note: The class-map-name default is reserved and must not be used.

The class type of match-all indicates all of the individual match conditions must be true for a packet to be
considered a member of the class.This command may be used without specifying a class type to enter the Class-
Map Config mode for an existing DiffServ class.

Note: The CLI mode is changed to Class-Map Config when this command is successfully executed
depending on the keyword specified.

Format class-map match-all class-map-name [ipv4 | ipv6]

Mode Global Config

no class-map
This command eliminates an existing DiffServ class. The class-map-name is the name of an existing DiffServ
class. (The class name default is reserved and is not allowed here.) This command may be issued at any time;
if the class is currently referenced by one or more policies or by any other class, the delete action fails.
Format no class-map class-map-name
Mode Global Config

class-map rename
This command changes the name of a DiffServ class. The class-map-name is the name of an existing

Any subsequent changes to the refclassname class match criteria must maintain this validity, or
the change attempt fails.
The total number of class rules formed by the complete reference class chain (including both
predecessor and successor classes) must not exceed a platform-specific maximum. In some cases, each
removal of a refclass rule reduces the maximum number of available rules in the class definition by one.

DiffServ Policy Commands

Use the DiffServ policy commands to specify traffic conditioning actions, such as policing and marking, to apply
to traffic classes.
Use the policy commands to associate a traffic class that you define by using the class command set with one
or more QoS policy attributes. Assign the class/policy association to an interface to form a service. Specify the
policy name when you create the policy.
Each traffic class defines a particular treatment for packets that match the class definition. You can associate
multiple traffic classes with a single policy. When a packet satisfies the conditions of more than one class,
preference is based on the order in which you add the classes to the policy. The first class you add has the
highest precedence.
This set of commands consists of policy creation/deletion, class addition/removal, and individual policy
attributes.

Note: The only way to remove an individual policy attribute from a class instance within a policy is
to remove the class instance and re-add it to the policy. The values associated with an existing policy
attribute can be changed without removing the class instance.

DiffServ Service Commands

Use the DiffServ service commands to assign a DiffServ traffic conditioning policy, which you specified by using
the policy commands, to an interface in the incoming direction
The service commands attach a defined policy to a directional interface. You can assign only one policy at any
one time to an interface in the inbound direction. DiffServ is not used in the outbound direction.
This set of commands consists of service addition/removal.
The CLI command root is service-policy.
service-policy
This command attaches a policy to an interface in the inbound direction as indicated by the in parameter, or the
outbound direction as indicated by the out parameter, respectively. The policyname parameter is the name of an
existing DiffServ policy. This command causes a service to create a reference to the policy.

Note: This command effectively enables DiffServ on an interface in the inbound direction. There is no
separate interface administrative mode command for DiffServ.

Note: This command fails if any attributes within the policy definition exceed the capabilities of the
interface. Once a policy is successfully attached to an interface, any attempt to change the policy definition,
that would result in a violation of the interface capabilities, causes the policy change attempt to fail.
Format service-policy {in|out} policymapname
Modes Global Config, Interface Config

Note: Each interface can have one policy attached.

no service-policy
This command detaches a policy from an interface in the inbound direction as indicated by the in parameter, or
the outbound direction as indicated by the out parameter, respectively. The policyname parameter is the
name of an existing DiffServ policy.

Note: This command causes a service to remove its reference to the policy. This command effectively
disables DiffServ on an interface in the inbound direction or an interface in the outbound direction. There
is no separate interface administrative mode command for DiffServ.

Term Definition
Peak Rate Guarantees a committed rate for transmission, but also transmits excess traffic bursts up to a user-
specified peak rate, with the understanding that a downstream network element (such as the next
hops policer) might drop this excess traffic. Traffic is held in queue until it is transmitted or dropped
(per type of queue depth management.) Peak rate shaping can be configured for the outgoing
transmission stream for an AP traffic class (although average rate shaping could also be used.)
Peak Burst Size (PBS). The network administrator can set the PBS as a means to limit the damage expedited forwarding
traffic could inflict on other traffic (e.g., a token bucket rate limiter) Traffic exceeding this limit is discarded.
Policing Style The style of policing, if any, used (simple).
Redirect Forces a classified traffic stream to a specified egress port (physical port or LAG). This can occur in

MAC Access Control List Commands

This section describes the commands you use to configure MAC Access Control List (ACL) settings. MAC ACLs
ensure that only authorized users have access to specific resources and block any unwarranted attempts to reach
network resources.
The following rules apply to MAC ACLs:
The maximum number of ACLs you can create is hardware dependent. The limit applies to all ACLs, regardless
of type.
The system supports only Ethernet II frame types.
The maximum number of rules per MAC ACL is hardware dependent.
mac access-list extended
This command creates a MAC Access Control List (ACL) identified by name, consisting of classification fields
defined for the Layer-2 header of an Ethernet frame. The name parameter is a case-sensitive alphanumeric
string of 1-31 characters uniquely identifying the MAC access list. The rate-limit attribute configures the
committed rate and the committed burst size.
If a MAC ACL by this name already exists, this command enters Mac-Access-List config mode to allow updating
the existing MAC ACL.

Note: The CLI mode changes to Mac-Access-List Config mode when you successfully execute this
command.

Format mac access-list extended name

Mode Global Config

no mac access-list extended

This command deletes a MAC ACL identified by name from the system.
Format no mac access-list extended name

mac access-list extended rename

This command changes the name of a MAC Access Control List (ACL). The name parameter is the name of an
existing MAC ACL. The newname parameter is a case-sensitive alphanumeric string of 1-31 characters uniquely
identifying the MAC access list.
This command fails if a MAC ACL by the name newname already exists.
Format mac access-list extended rename name newname
Mode Global Config

{deny | permit} (MAC ACL)

This command creates a new rule for the current MAC access list. Each rule is appended to the list of configured
rules for the list. A rule may either deny or permit traffic according to the specified classification fields. At a
minimum, the source and destination MAC value must be specified, each of which may be substituted using the
keyword any to indicate a match on any value in that field. The remaining command parameters are all optional,
but the most frequently used parameters appear in the same relative order as shown in the command format.
Format {deny|permit} {srcmac | any} {dstmac | any} [ethertypekey | 0x0600-0xFFFF]

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Quality of Service Commands

Note:
Thenoform of this command is not supported, since the rules within a MAC ACL cannot be deleted
individually. Rather, the entire MAC ACL must be deleted and respecified.
An implicit deny all MAC rule always terminates the access list.

The Ethertype may be specified as either a keyword or a four-digit hexadecimal value from 0x0600-0xFFFF.
The currently supported ethertypekey values are: appletalk, arp, ibmsna, ipv4, ipv6, ipx,
mplsmcast, mplsucast, netbios, novell, pppoe, rarp. Each of these translates into its equivalent
Ethertype value(s).
Table 13. Ethertype Keyword and 4-digit Hexadecimal Value
Ethertype Keyword Corresponding Value
appletalk 0x809B
arp 0x0806
ibmsna 0x80D5

netbios 0x8191
novell 0x8137, 0x8138
pppoe 0x8863, 0x8864
rarp 0x8035

The vlan and cos parameters refer to the VLAN identifier and 802.1p user priority fields, respectively, of the
VLAN tag. For packets containing a double VLAN tag, this is the first (or outer) tag.
The time-range parameter allows imposing time limitation on the MAC ACL rule as defined by the
parameter time-range-name. If a time range with the specified name does not exist and the MAC ACL
containing this ACL rule is applied to an interface or bound to a VLAN, then the ACL rule is applied immediately.
If a time range with specified name exists and the MAC ACL containing this ACL rule is applied to an interface
or bound to a VLAN, then the ACL rule is applied when the time-range with specified name becomes active.
The ACL rule is removed when the time-range with specified name becomes inactive. For information about
configuring time ranges, see Time Range Commands for Time-Based ACLs on page 404.
The assign-queue parameter allows specification of a particular hardware queue for handling traffic that
matches this rule. The allowed queue-id value is 0 to (n-1), where n is the number of user configurable
queues available for the hardware platform. The assign-queue parameter is valid only for a permit rule.
The mirror parameter allows the traffic matching this rule to be copied to the specified slot/port, while
the redirect parameter allows the traffic matching this rule to be forwarded to the specified slot/port.
The assign-queue and redirect parameters are only valid for a permit rule.

Note: The special command form {deny | permit} any any is used to match all Ethernet Layer-2
packets, and is the equivalent of the IP access list match every rule.

The permit commands optional attribute rate-limit allows you to permit only the allowed rate of
traffic as per the configured rate in kbps, and burst-size in kbytes.
Example: The following shows an example of the command.
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Config)#mac access-list extended mac1

mac access-group
This command either attaches a specific MAC Access Control List (ACL) identified by name to an interface or
range of interfaces, or associates it with a VLAN ID, in a given direction. The name parameter must be the name
of an existing MAC ACL.
An optional sequence number may be specified to indicate the order of this mac access list relative to other mac
access lists already assigned to this interface and direction. A lower number indicates higher precedence order.
If a sequence number is already in use for this interface and direction, the specified mac access list replaces the
currently attached mac access list using that sequence number. If the sequence number is not specified for this
command, a sequence number that is one greater than the highest sequence number currently in use for this
interface and direction is used.
This command specified in Interface Config mode only affects a single interface, whereas the Global Config
mode setting is applied to all interfaces. The VLAN keyword is only valid in the Global Config mode. The
Interface Config mode command is only available on platforms that support independent per-port class of
service queue configuration.

Note: You should be aware that the out option may or may not be available, depending on the

IP Access Control List Commands

This section describes the commands you use to configure IP Access Control List (ACL) settings. IP ACLs ensure
that only authorized users have access to specific resources and block any unwarranted attempts to reach
network resources.
The following rules apply to IP ACLs:
EdgeSwitch software does not support IP ACL configuration for IP packet fragments.
The maximum number of ACLs you can create is hardware dependent. The limit applies to all ACLs, regardless
of type.
The maximum number of rules per IP ACL is hardware dependent.
Wildcard masking for ACLs operates differently from a subnet mask. A wildcard mask is in essence the inverse
of a subnet mask. With a subnet mask, the mask has ones (1s) in the bit positions that are used for the
network address, and has zeros (0s) for the bit positions that are not used. In contrast, a wildcard mask has
(0s) in a bit position that must be checked. A 1 in a bit position of the ACL mask indicates the corresponding
bit can be ignored.
access-list
This command creates an IP Access Control List (ACL) that is identified by the access list number, which is 1-99 for
standard ACLs or 100-199 for extended ACLs. Table 14 describes the parameters for the access-list command.
IP Standard ACL:

Table 14. ACL Command Parameters (Continued)

{{range Note: This option is available only if the protocol is TCP or UDP.
{portkey|startport} Specifies the source Layer-4 port match condition for the IP ACL rule. You can use the port number,
{portkey|endport} which ranges from 0-65535, or you specify the portkey, which can be one of the following keywords:
| {eq|neq|lt|gt}
For TCP: bgp, domain, echo, ftp, ftp-data, http, smtp, telnet, www, pop2, pop3.
{portkey|0-65535}]
For UDP: domain, echo, ntp, rip, snmp, tftp, time, and who.
For both TCP and UDP, each of these keywords translates into its equivalent port number, which is
used as both the start and end of a port range.
If range is specified, the IP ACL rule matches only if the Layer-4 port number falls within the
specified port range. The startport and endport parameters identify the first and last ports
that are part of the port range. They have values from 0 to 65535. The ending port must have a value
equal or greater than the starting port. The starting port, ending port, and all ports in between will be
part of the Layer-4 port range.
When eq is specified, the IP ACL rule matches only if the Layer-4 port number is equal to the
specified port number or portkey.
When lt is specified, the IP ACL rule matches if the Layer-4 port number is less than the specified
port number or portkey. It is equivalent to specifying a range of 0-<specified port number-1>.
When gt is specified, the IP ACL rule matches if the Layer-4 port number is greater than the specified
port number or portkey. It is equivalent to specifying a range of <specified port number+1>-65535.
When neq is specified, the IP ACL rule matches only if the Layer-4 port number is not equal to the
specified port number or portkey.
Two rules are added in the hardware one with range equal to 0-<specified port number-1> and one

time-range Allows imposing time limitation on the ACL rule as defined by the parameter time-range-name.
time-range-name If a time range with the specified name does not exist and the ACL containing this ACL rule is applied
to an interface or bound to a VLAN, then the ACL rule is applied immediately. If a time range with
specified name exists and the ACL containing this ACL rule is applied to an interface or bound to a
VLAN, the ACL rule is applied when the time-range with specified name becomes active. The ACL
rule is removed when the time-range with specified name becomes inactive. For information about
configuring time ranges, see Time Range Commands for Time-Based ACLs on page 404.
assign-queue queue-id Specifies the assign-queue, which is the queue identifier to which packets matching this rule are
assigned.
{mirror | redirect} Specifies the mirror or redirect interface which is the slot/port to which packets matching this rule are
slot/port copied or forwarded, respectively.
rate-limit rate Specifies the allowed rate of traffic as per the configured rate in kbps, and burst-size in
burst-size kbytes.

no access-list
This command deletes an IP ACL that is identified by the parameter accesslistnumber from the system. The range
for accesslistnumber is 1-99 for standard access lists and 100-199 for extended access lists.
Format no access-list accesslistnumber

{deny | permit} (IP ACL)

This command creates a new rule for the current IP access list. Each rule is appended to the list of configured
rules for the list. A rule may either deny or permit traffic according to the specified classification fields. At a
minimum, either the every keyword or the protocol, source address, and destination address values must be
specified. The source and destination IP address fields may be specified using the keyword any to indicate a
match on any value in that field. The remaining command parameters are all optional, but the most frequently
used parameters appear in the same relative order as shown in the command format.

Note:Thenoform of this command is not supported, since the rules within an IP ACL cannot be deleted
individually. Rather, the entire IP ACL must be deleted and respecified.

Note: An implicit deny all IP rule always terminates the access list.

Note: For IPv4, the following are not supported for egress ACLs:
A match on port ranges.
The rate-limit command.

The time-range parameter allows imposing atime limitation on the IP ACL rule as defined by the specified
time range (time-range-name). If the specified time range does not exist and the ACL containing this ACL
rule is applied to an interface or bound to a VLAN, then the ACL rule is applied immediately. If the specified time
range exists and the ACL containing this ACL rule is applied to an interface or bound to a VLAN, then the ACL rule
is applied when the specified time range becomes active. The ACL rule is removed when the specified time range
becomes inactive. For information about configuring time ranges, see Time Range Commands for Time-
Based ACLs on page 404.
The assign-queue parameter allows specification of a particular hardware queue for handling traffic that
matches this rule. The allowed queue-id value is from 0 to (n-1), where n is the number of user configurable
queues available for the hardware platform. The assign-queue parameter is valid only for a permit rule.
The permit commands optional attribute rate-limit allows you to permit only the allowed rate of
traffic as per the configured rate in kbps, and burst-size in kbytes.
Parameter Description
{deny | permit} Specifies whether the IP ACL rule permits or denies the matching traffic.

IPv6 Access Control List Commands

This section describes the commands you use to configure IPv6 Access Control List (ACL) settings. IPv6 ACLs
ensure that only authorized users have access to specific resources and block any unwarranted attempts to reach
network resources.
The following rules apply to IPv6 ACLs:
The maximum number of ACLs you create is 100, regardless of type.
The system supports only Ethernet II frame types.
The maximum number of rules per IPv6 ACL is hardware dependent.
ipv6 access-list
This command creates an IPv6 Access Control List (ACL) identified by name, consisting of classification fields
defined for the IP header of an IPv6 frame. The name parameter is a case-sensitive alphanumeric string from 1
to 31 characters uniquely identifying the IPv6 access list. The rate-limit attribute configures the committed rate
and the committed burst size.
If an IPv6 ACL by this name already exists, this command enters IPv6-Access-List config mode to allow updating
the existing IPv6 ACL.

Note: The CLI mode changes to IPv6-Access-List Config mode when you successfully execute this
command.

{deny | permit} (IPv6)

This command creates a new rule for the current IPv6 access list. Each rule is appended to the list of configured
rules for the list. A rule may either deny or permit traffic according to the specified classification fields. At a
minimum, either the every keyword or the protocol, source address, and destination address values must be
specified. The source and destination IPv6 address fields may be specified using the keyword any to indicate
a match on any value in that field. The remaining command parameters are all optional, but the most frequently
used parameters appear in the same relative order as shown in the command format.
Format {deny | permit} {every | {{icmpv6 | ipv6 | tcp | udp | 0-255}

Mode IPv6-Access-List Config

Note:
Thenoform of this command is not supported, since the rules within an IPv6 ACL cannot be deleted
individually. Rather, the entire IPv6 ACL must be deleted and respecified.
An implicit deny all IPv6 rule always terminates the access list.

The time-range parameter allows imposing time limitation on the IPv6 ACL rule as defined by the
parameter time-range-name. If a time range with the specified name does not exist and the IPv6 ACL
containing this ACL rule is applied to an interface or bound to a VLAN, then the ACL rule is applied immediately.
If a time range with specified name exists and the IPv6 ACL containing this ACL rule is applied to an interface
or bound to a VLAN, then the ACL rule is applied when the time-range with specified name becomes active.
The ACL rule is removed when the time-range with specified name becomes inactive. For information about
configuring time ranges, see Time Range Commands for Time-Based ACLs on page 404.
The assign-queue parameter allows specification of a particular hardware queue for handling traffic that
matches this rule. The allowed queue-id value is 0 to (n-1), where n is the number of user-configurable
queues available for the hardware platform. The assign-queue parameter is valid only for a permit rule.
The mirror parameter allows the traffic matching this rule to be copied to the specified slot/port,
while the redirect parameter allows the traffic matching this rule to be forwarded to the specified slot/port. The
assign-queue and redirect parameters are only valid for a permit rule.
The permit commands optional attribute rate-limit allows you to permit only the allowed rate of
traffic as per the configured rate in kbps, and burst-size in kbytes.
IPv6 ACLs have the following limitations:
Port ranges are not supported for egress IPv6 ACLs.
The rate-limit command is not supported for egress IPv6 ACLs.
Parameter Description
{deny | permit} Specifies whether the IPv6 ACL rule permits or denies the matching traffic.
every Specifies to match every packet.
{protocolkey | protocolkey specifies the protocol to match for the IPv6 ACL rule: icmpv6, ipv6, tcp, or udp.
number} number is the protocol number: 0-255.
source-ipv6-prefix/ Specifies a source IPv6 source address and prefix length to match for the IPv6 ACL rule.
prefix-length | any Specifying any implies specifying ::/0
| host Specifying host source-ipv6-address implies matching the specified IPv6 address.
source-ipv6-address The source-ipv6-address argument must be in the form documented in RFC 2373 where the
address is specified in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons.

Parameter Description
[{range Note: This option is available only if the protocol is TCP or UDP.
{portkey|startport} Specifies the Layer-4 port match condition for the IPv6 ACL rule. A port number can be used, in the
{portkey|endport} | range 0-65535, or the portkey, which can be one of the following keywords:
{eq | neq | lt | gt}
For TCP: bgp, domain, echo, ftp, ftp-data, http, smtp, telnet, www, pop2, pop3
{portkey|0-65535} ]
For UDP: domain, echo, ntp, rip, snmp, tftp, time, who
Each of these keywords translates into its equivalent port number.
When range is specified, IPv6 ACL rule matches only if the Layer-4 port number falls within the
specified port range. The startport and endport parameters identify the first and last ports
that are part of the port range. They have values from 0 to 65535. The ending port must have a value
equal or greater than the starting port. The starting port, ending port, and all ports in between are
part of the Layer-4 port range.
When eq is specified, IPv6 ACL rule matches only if the Layer-4 port number is equal to the specified
port number or portkey.
When lt is specified, IPv6 ACL rule matches if the Layer-4 port number is less than the specified port
number or portkey. It is equivalent to specifying the range as 0 to <specified port number-1>.
When gt is specified, IPv6 ACL rule matches if the Layer-4 port number is greater than the specified
port number or portkey. It is equivalent to specifying the range as <specified port number+1> to 65535.
When neq is specified, IPv6 ACL rule matches only if the Layer-4 port number is not equal to the
specified port number or portkey.
Two rules are added in the hardware, one with range equal to 0 to <specified port number-1> and one
with range equal to <specified port number+1> to 65535.
destination-ipv6- Specifies a destination IPv6 source address and prefix length to match for the IPv6 ACL rule.
prefix/prefix- Specifying any implies specifying ::/0.
length | any | host Specifying host destination-ipv6-address implies matching the specified IPv6 address.

ipv6 traffic-filter
This command either attaches a specific IPv6 ACL identified by name to an interface or range of interfaces,
or associates it with a VLAN ID in a given direction. The name parameter must be the name of an existing
IPv6ACL.
An optional sequence number may be specified to indicate the order of this MAC access list relative to other IPv6
access lists already assigned to this interface and direction. A lower number indicates higher precedence order.
If a sequence number is already in use for this interface and direction, the specifiedIPv6 access list replaces the
currently attached IPv6 access list using that sequence number. If the sequence number is not specified for this
command, a sequence number that is one greater than the highest sequence number currently in use for this
interface and direction is used.
This command specified in Interface Config mode only affects a single interface, whereas the Global Config
mode setting is applied to all interfaces. The vlan keyword is only valid in the Global Config mode. The
Interface Config mode command is only available on platforms that support independent per-port class of
service queue configuration.

Time Range Commands for Time-Based ACLs

Time-based ACLs allow one or more rules within an ACL to be based on time. Each ACL rule within an ACL except
for the implicit deny all rule can be configured to be active and operational only during a specific time period. The
time range commands allow you to define specific times of the day and week in order to implement time-based
ACLs. The time range is identified by a name and can then be referenced by an ACL rule defined within an ACL.
time-range
Use this command to create a time range identified by name, consisting of one absolute time entry and/or
one or more periodic time entries. The name parameter is a case-sensitive, alphanumeric string from 1 to
31 characters that uniquely identifies the time range. An alphanumeric string is defined as consisting of only
alphabetic, numeric, dash, underscore, or space characters.
If a time range by this name already exists, this command enters Time-Range config mode to allow updating the
time range entries.

Note: When you successfully execute this command, the CLI mode changes to Time-Range Config mode.

Format time-range name

Mode Global Config

no time-range
This command deletes a time-range identified by name.
Format no time-range name
Mode Global Config

absolute
Use this command to add an absolute time entry to a time range. Only one absolute time entry is allowed per
time-range. The time parameter is based on the currently configured time zone.
The [start time date] parameters indicate the time and date at which the configuration that
referenced the time range starts going into effect. The time is expressed in a 24-hour clock, in the form of
hours:minutes. For example, 8:00 is 8:00 am and 20:00 is 8:00 pm. The date is expressed in the format
day month year. If no start time and date are specified, the configuration statement is in effect immediately.
The [end time date] parameters indicate the time and date at which the configuration that referenced
the time range is no longer in effect. The end time and date must be after the start time and date. If no end time
and date are specified, the configuration statement is in effect indefinitely.
Format absolute [start time date] [end time date]

periodic
Use this command to add a periodic time entry to a time range. The time parameter is based off of the
currently configured time zone.
The first occurrence of the days-of-the-week argument is the starting day(s) from which the configuration
that referenced the time range starts going into effect. The second occurrence is the ending day or days from
which the configuration that referenced the time range is no longer in effect. If the end days-of-the-week
are the same as the start, they can be omitted.
This argument can be any single day or combinations of days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,
Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Other possible values are:
daily: Monday through Sunday
weekdays: Monday through Friday
weekend: Saturday and Sunday
If the ending days of the week are the same as the starting days of the week, they can be omitted.
The first time parameter is the starting hours:minutes at which the configuration that referenced the
time range goes into effect. The second time parameter is the ending hours:minutes at which the
configuration that referenced the time range is no longer in effect.
The hours:minutes are expressed in a 24-hour clock. For example, 8:00 is 8:00 am; 20:00 is 8:00 pm.

Auto-Voice over IP Commands

This section describes the commands you use to configure Auto-Voice over IP (VoIP) commands. The Auto-VoIP
feature explicitly matches VoIP streams in Ethernet switches and provides them with a better class-of-service
than ordinary traffic. When you enable the Auto-VoIP feature on an interface, the interface scans incoming traffic
for the following call-control protocols:
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)
H.323
Skinny Client Control Protocol (SCCP)
When a call-control protocol is detected, the switch assigns the traffic in that session to the highest CoS queue,
which is generally used for time-sensitive traffic.
auto-voip
Use this command to configure auto VoIP mode. The supported modes are protocol-based and oui-based.
Protocol-based auto VoIP prioritizes the voice data based on the Layer-4 port used for the voice session. OUI-
based auto VoIP prioritizes the phone traffic based on the known OUI of the phone.
When both modes are enabled, if the connected phone OUI is one of the configured OUI, then the voice data is
prioritized using OUI Auto VoIP, otherwise protocol-based auto VoIP is used to prioritize the voice data.
Active sessions are cleared if protocol-based auto VoIP is disabled on the port.
Default oui-based
Format auto-voip [protocol-based | oui-based]
Mode Global Config, Interface Config

no auto-voip
Use thenoform of the command to set the default mode.
auto-voip oui
Use this command to configure an OUI for Auto VoIP. The traffic from the configured OUI will get the highest
priority over the other traffic. The oui-prefix is a unique OUI that identifies the device manufacturer or
vendor. The OUI is specified in three octet values (each octet represented as two hexadecimal digits) separated
by colons. The string is a description of the OUI that identifies the manufacturer or vendor associated with
the OUI.
Default A list of known OUIs is present.
Format auto-voip oui oui-prefix oui-desc string
Mode Global Config

Example: The following example shows how to add an OUI to the table.
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Config)#auto-voip oui 00:03:6B desc Cisco VoIPPhone

no auto-voip oui
Use thenoform of the command to remove a configured OUI prefix from the table.
Format no auto-voip oui oui-prefix
Mode Global Config

Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. 406

EdgeSwitch CLI Command Reference Quality of Service Commands

auto-voip oui-based priority

Use this command to configure the global OUI based auto VoIP priority. If the phone OUI is matches one of the
configured OUI, then the priority of traffic from the phone is changed to OUI priority configured through this
command. The priority-value is the 802.1p priority used for traffic that matches a value in the known OUI
list. If the interface detects an OUI match, the switch assigns the traffic in that session to the traffic class mapped
to this priority value. Traffic classes with a higher value are generally used for time-sensitive traffic.
Default Highest available priority.
Format auto-voip oui-based priority priority-value
Mode Global Config

Example: The following example shows how to add an OUI to the table.
(UBNT EdgeSwitch) (Config)#auto-voip oui 00:03:6B desc Cisco VoIPPhone

no auto-voip oui
Use thenoform of the command to remove a configured OUI prefix from the table.
Format no auto-voip oui oui-prefix
Mode Global Config, Interface Config

auto-voip protocol-based
Use this command to configure the global protocol-based auto VoIP remarking priority or traffic-class. If remark
priority is configured, the voice data of the session is remarked with the priority configured through this
command. The remark-priority is the 802.1p priority used for protocol-based VoIP traffic. If the interface
detects a call-control protocol, the device marks traffic in that session with the specified 802.1p priority value to
ensure voice traffic always gets the highest priority throughout the network path.
The tc value is the traffic class used for protocol-based VoIP traffic. If the interface detects a call-control
protocol, the device assigns the traffic in that session to the configured Class of Service (CoS) queue. Traffic
classes with a higher value are generally used for time-sensitive traffic. The CoS queue associated with the
specified traffic class should be configured with the appropriate bandwidth allocation to allow priority treatment
for VoIP traffic.

Note: You must enable tagging on auto VoIP enabled ports to remark the voice data upon egress.

Default Traffic class 7

Format auto-voip protocol-based {remark remark-priority | traffic-class tc}
Mode Global Config, Interface Config

no auto-voip protocol-based
Use this command to reset the global protocol based auto VoIP remarking priority or traffic-class to the default.
Format no auto-voip protocol-based {remark remark-priority | traffic-class tc}
Mode Global Config, Interface Config

auto-voip vlan
Use this command to configure the global Auto VoIP VLAN ID. The VLAN behavior is depend on the configured
auto VoIP mode. The auto-VoIP VLAN is the VLAN used to segregate VoIP traffic from other non-voice traffic. All
VoIP traffic that matches a value in the known OUI list gets assigned to this VoIP VLAN.
