If the Switch IP address has not y et been changed, read the intr oduction of the A T -9724TS Command Line Interface Refer ence Manual or return to Cha pter 4 of this manual for mor e information.
VLAN Name This allows the entry of a VLAN Name from which a management station will be allow ed to manage the Switch using TCP/IP (in-band via web manager or T elnet).
Parameter Descr iption Ser ial Por t Auto Logout Time Select the logout time used for the console interface. This automatically logs the user out after an idle period of time, as defined. Choose from the f ollowing options: 2 Minutes , 5 Minutes, 10 Minutes, 15 Minutes or Never .
Parameter Descr iption Curr ent Box ID The current Bo x ID of the Master switch in the stack. New Box ID The new box ID of the Master s witch in the stack. Box T ype The user ma y choose the model name of the Master switch in a stack to be the main configuring switch of that stack.
Parameter Descr iption State T oggle the State < Enabled > field to either enable or disable a given port or gr oup of ports. Speed/Duplex T oggle the Speed/Duplex field to either select the speed and duplex/half-duplex state of the port. Auto denotes auto-negotiation betw een 10 and 100Mbps devices, in full- or half-duplex.
6-6 P ort Mirr oring The Switch allows you to cop y frames transmitted and received on a port and redir ect the copies to another port. Y ou can attach a monitoring device to the mirr ored port, such as a sniffer or an RMON probe, to view details about the pack ets passing through the first port.
The Switch treats all ports in a trunk group as a single port. Data transmitted to a specific host (destination addr ess) will alwa ys be transmitted ov er the same port in a trunk group . This allows packets in a data str eam to arriv e in the same order they w ere sent.
Figure 6- 11. Link Aggregation Gr oup Configuration window – Modify The user -changeable parameters are as follo ws: Parameter Descr iption Gr oup ID Select an ID number for the gr oup , between 1 and 32. State T runk groups can be toggled between Enabled and Disabled .

IGMP Snooping Internet Gr oup Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping allows the Switch to recognize IGMP queries and r eports sent between network stations or devices and an IGMP host. When enabled for IGMP snooping, the Switch can open or close a por t to a specific device based on IGMP messages passing thr ough the Switch.
Robustness Value Adjust this variable according to expected pack et loss. If packet loss on the VLAN is expected to be high, the Robustness Var ia ble should be increased to accommodate increased pack et loss. This entry field allows an entry of 1 to 255.

6-14 VLANs Under standing IEEE 802.1p Prior ity Priority tagging is a function defined by the IEEE 802.1p standard designed to pr ovide a means of managing traffic on a network where man y differ ent types of data ma y be transmitted simultaneously .
The main characteristics of IEEE 802.1Q are as f ollows: • Assigns packets to VLANs by filtering. • Assumes the presence of a single global spanning tr ee.
Figure 6- 38. IEEE 802.1Q T ag The EtherT ype and VLAN ID are inserted after the MA C source addr ess, but befor e the original EtherT ype/Length or Logical Link Control. Because the packet is no w a bit longer than it was originally , the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) must be recalculated.
P ort VLAN ID Packets that ar e tagged (are car rying the 802.1Q VID information) can be transmitted from one 802.1Q compliant netw ork device to another with the VLAN inf ormation intact. This allows 802.1Q VLANs to span netw ork devices (and indeed, the entire network, if all network de vices are 802.

Figure 6- 91. Static/Default Route Settings – Add window The following fields can be set: Parameter Descr iption IP Addr ess Allows the entry of an IP address that will be a static entry into the Switch’ s Routing T able. Subnet Mask Allows the entry of a subnet mask corresponding to the IP addr ess abov e.
3. After changing the route pr efer ence value for a specific routing pr otocol, that pr otocol needs to be restarted because the previousl y learned routes ha ve been dr opped from the Switch.The Switch must learn the routes again befor e the new settings can tak e effect.
Static ARP T a ble The Address Resolution Protocol ( ARP ) is a TCP/IP pr otocol that conv erts IP addresses into ph ysical addresses.This table allows network managers to view , define, modify and delete ARP information f or specific devices. Static entries can be defined in the ARP T a ble .
T o maximize stability , the hop count RIP uses to measure distance must ha ve a low maximum value. Infinity (that is, the network is unreachable) is defined as 16 hops. In other words, if a network is more than 16 r outers fr om the source, the local router will consider the netw ork unreachable.
T o setup RIP for the IP interfaces configur ed on the Switch, the user must enable RIP and then configure RIP settings f or the individual IP interfaces.
Parameter Descr iption Interface Na me The name of the IP interface on which RIP is to be setup . This interface must be previousl y configured on the Switch. IP Addr ess The IP addr ess corresponding to the Interface Name sho wing in the field above.
Shortest P ath T r ee T o build Router A’ s shortest path tree for the netw ork diagrammed below , Router A is put at the root of the tr ee and the smallest cost link to each destination netw ork is calculated. Figur e 6- 98. Constructing a Shor test Path T r ee The diagram abov e shows the network fr om the viewpoint of Router A.
Figure 6- 99. Constructing a Shor test Path T r ee – Completed Note that this shortest path tree is only fr om the viewpoint of Router A. The cost of the link from Router B to Router A, for instance is not important to constructing Router A’ s shortest path tree, but is very impor tant when Router B is constructing its shortest path tree.
OSPF Authentication OSPF packets can be authenticated as coming fr om trusted routers by the use of predefined pass wor ds. The default for routers is to use not authentication. There ar e two other authentication methods – simple pass word authentication (k ey) and Message Digest authentication (MD-5).
Adjacencies Adjacent routers g o beyond the simple Hello exchange and participate in the link-state database exchange pr ocess. OSPF elects one router as the Designated Router (DR) and a second r outer as the Backup Designated Router (BDR) on each m ulti-access segment (the BDR is a backup in case of a DR failure).

This uniquely identifies the advertisement, but not its instance. Link-State Request packets are understood to be r equests for the most r ecent instance.
Link-State Acknowledgment P ack et Link-State Acknowledgment pack ets are OSPF packet type 5. T o mak e the folding of link-state adv ertisements reliable, flooded advertisements are explicitly ackno wledged. This acknowledgment is accomplished thr ough the sending and receiving of Link-State Acknowledgment packets.
Link State Adver tisement Header All link state advertisements begin with a common 20-byte header . This header contains enough information to uniquely identify the adv ertisements (Link State T ype , Link State ID , and Advertising Router). Multiple instances of the link state advertisement ma y exist in the routing domain at the same time.
Figure 6- 107. Routers Links Advertisements In r outer links adv ertisements, the Link State ID field is set to the router’ s OSPF Router ID . The T -bit is set in the advertisement’ s Option field if and only if the r outer is able to calculate a separate set of r outes for each IP T ype of Ser vice (T OS).
For each link, separate metrics may be specified for each T ype of Ser vice (T OS). The metric for T OS 0 must alwa ys be included, and was discussed above. Metrics for non-zer o T OS are described below . Note that the cost for non-zer o T OS values that are not specified defaults to the T OS 0 cost.
Figure 6- 109. Summar y Link Advertisements For stub ar ea, T ype 3 summar y link advertisements can also be used to describe a default route on a per -area basis. Default summar y routes ar e used in stub area instead of flooding a complete set of external routes.
Field Descr iption Network Mask The IP addr ess mask for the advertised destination. E – bit The type of external metric. If the E - bit is set, the metric specified is a T ype 2 external metric. This means the metric is considered larger than an y link state path.
T o add an OSPF Area to the table, type a unique Area ID (see belo w) select the Type fr om the dr op-down menu. For a Stub type , choose Enabled or Disabled from the Stub Impor t Summary L SA dr op-down menu and determine the Stub Default Cost . Click the Add/Modify button to add the Area ID set to the table.
