tunnel bandwidth through yellow

tunnel bandwidth

To set the transmit bandwidth used by the tunnel interface, use the tunnelbandwidth command in interface configuration mode. To restore the default setting, use the no form of this command.

tunnel bandwidth {receive | transmit} bandwidth

no tunnel bandwidth

Syntax Description

receive

Specifies the bandwidth to be used to receive packets through the tunnel.

Note

 

This keyword is no longer used and will be removed in future releases.

transmit

Specifies the bandwidth to be used to send packets through the tunnel.

bandwidth

Bandwidth, in kbps. Range is from 0 to 2147483647. Default is 8000.

Command Default

8000 kbps

Command Modes

Modification

12.3(7)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use the tunnelbandwidth command to specify the capacity of the satellite link.

Examples

The following example shows how to set the satellite tunnel bandwidth to 1000 kbps for transmitting packets using Rate Based Satellite Control Protocol:


Router(config
)
# interface tunnel 0
Router(config
-if)#
 tunnel bandwidth transmit 1000

tunnel checksum

To enable encapsulator-to-decapsulator checksumming of packets on a tunnel interface, use the tunnelchecksum command in interface configuration mode. To disable checksumming, use the no form of this command.

tunnel checksum

no tunnel checksum

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

Disabled

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

10.0

This command was introduced.

12.2(33)SRA

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.

12.2SX

This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Usage Guidelines

This command currently applies to generic routing encapsulation (GRE) only. Some passenger protocols rely on media checksums to provide data integrity. By default, the tunnel does not guarantee packet integrity. By enabling end-to-end checksums, the routers will drop corrupted packets.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable encapsulator-to-decapsulator checksumming of packets for all protocols on the tunnel interface:


Router(config
-if)
# tunnel checksum

tunnel mpls-ip-only

To copy the inner IP header’s Do Not Fragment bit from the payload into the tunnel packet’s IP header, use the tunnel mpls-ip-only command in the interface configuration mode.

tunnel mpls-ip-only

no tunnel mpls-ip-only

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

Disabled

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

17.5.1

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

If the Do Not Fragment bit is not set, the payload is fragmented when the IP packet exceeds the MTU set for the interface. When you enable the tunnel mpls-ip-only command, the tunnel path-mtu-discovery automatically gets enabled due to the dependency.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable this command:


Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls-ip-only

tunnel destination

To specify the destination for a tunnel interface, use the tunnel destination command in interface configuration mode. To remove the destination, use the no form of this command.

tunnel destination {host-name | ip-address | ipv6-address | dynamic}

no tunnel destination

Command Syntax for Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches

tunnel destination ip-address

no tunnel destination

Syntax Description

host-name

Name of the host destination.

ip-address

IP address of the host destination expressed in dotted decimal notation.

ipv6-address

IPv6 address of the host destination expressed in IPv6 address format.

dynamic

Applies the tunnel destination address dynamically to the tunnel interface.

Command Default

No tunnel interface destination is specified.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History

This command was introduced on Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers.

15.1SY

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 15.1SY.

Cisco IOS XE Release 3.7S

This command was modified. The dynamic keyword was added.

15.4(2)S

This command was implemented on the Cisco ASR 901 Series Aggregation Services Router.

Usage Guidelines

You cannot configure two tunnels to use the same encapsulation mode with exactly the same source and destination addresses. The workaround is to create a loopback interface and configure the packet source off of the loopback interface. Refer to the Cisco IOS AppleTalk, ISO CLNS, and Novell IPX Configuration Guide for more information about AppleTalk Cayman tunneling.


Note


Only GRE tunneling is supported on Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches.


Examples

The following example shows how to configure the tunnel destination address for Cayman tunneling:


Device(config)# interface tunnel0
Device(config-if)# tunnel source ethernet0
Device(config-if)# tunnel destination 10.108.164.19
Device(config-if)# tunnel mode cayman

Examples

The following example shows how to set the tunnel destination address dynamically:

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History

Release Modification

Cisco IOS XE Release 3.11S

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

You can enable tunnel entropy calculation only in Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) mode. If you configure a 32-bit tunnel key, you must remove the existing key first.

To disable tunnel entropy calculation, you must remove the configured tunnel key before using the no tunnel entropy command to disable entropy calculation.

Use the show interfaces tunnel command to verify whether tunnel entropy calculation is enabled or not. If it is enabled, the key size is also displayed.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure tunnel entropy calculation for GRE mode of the tunnel interface:


Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# interface tunnel 21
Device(config-if)# tunnel source 10.1.1.1
Device(config-if)# tunnel destination 172.168.2.1
Device(config-if)# tunnel mode gre ip
Device(config-if)# tunnel key 4683
Device(config-if)# tunnel entropy
Device(config-if)# end

The following is sample output from the show interfaces tunnel command, which displays that tunnel entropy calculation is enabled with a 24-bit key:

This command was introduced.

12.2(33)SRA

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.

12.2SX

This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Cisco IOS XE Release 3.11S

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 3.11S.

Usage Guidelines

This command currently applies to generic route encapsulation (GRE) only. Tunnel ID keys can be used as a form of weak security to prevent improper configuration or injection of packets from a foreign source.


Note


IP multicast traffic is not supported when a tunnel ID key is configured unless the traffic is process-switched. You must configure the noipmroute-cache command in interface configuration mode on the interface if an ID key is configured. This note applies only to Cisco IOS Release 12.0 and earlier releases.



Note


When GRE is used, the ID key is carried in each packet. We do not recommend relying on this key for security purposes.


Examples

The following example shows how to set the tunnel ID key to 3:


Device(config-if)# tunnel key 3

tunnel mode

To set the encapsulation mode for the tunnel interface, use the tunnel mode command in interface configuration mode. To return to the default mode, use the no form of this command.

Usage Guidelines

Source and Destination Address

You cannot have two tunnels that use the same encapsulation mode with exactly the same source and destination address. The workaround is to create a loopback interface and source packets off of the loopback interface.

Cayman Tunneling

Designed by Cayman Systems, Cayman tunneling enables tunneling to enable Cisco routers to interoperate with Cayman GatorBoxes. With Cayman tunneling, you can establish tunnels between two routers or between a Cisco router and a GatorBox. When using Cayman tunneling, you must not configure the tunnel with an AppleTalk network address.

DVMRP

Use DVMRP when a router connects to an mrouted (multicast) router to run DVMRP over a tunnel. You must configure Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) and an IP address on a DVMRP tunnel.

Ethernet over GRE

Use Ethernet over GRE to send ethernet traffic from low-end resident gateways (RGs) or Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) to aggregation routers where Mobile Access Gateway (MAG) is enabled over GRE tunnels. The RGs and CPE can then provide mobility services to mobile nodes (MNs).

GRE with AppleTalk

GRE tunneling can be done between Cisco routers only. When using GRE tunneling for AppleTalk, you configure the tunnel with an AppleTalk network address. Using the AppleTalk network address, you can ping the other end of the tunnel to check the connection.

Multipoint GRE

After enabling mGRE tunneling, you can enable the tunnel protection command, which allows you to associate the mGRE tunnel with an IPSec profile. Combining mGRE tunnels and IPSec encryption allows a single mGRE interface to support multiple IPSec tunnels, thereby simplifying the size and complexity of the configuration.


Note


GRE tunnel keepalives configured using the keepalive command under a GRE interface are supported only on point-to-point GRE tunnels.


RBSCP

RBSCP tunneling is designed for wireless or long-distance delay links with high error rates, such as satellite links. Using tunnels, RBSCP can improve the performance of certain IP protocols, such as TCP and IPSec, over satellite links without breaking the end-to-end model.

IPsec in IPv6 Transport

IPv6 IPsec encapsulation provides site-to-site IPsec protection of IPv6 unicast and multicast traffic. This feature allows IPv6 routers to work as a security gateway, establishes IPsec tunnels to another security gateway router, and provides crypto IPsec protection for traffic from an internal network when it is transmitted across the public IPv6 Internet. IPv6 IPsec is very similar to the security gateway model using IPv4 IPsec protection.


Note


Only GRE tunneling is supported on Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches.

  • aging-mins --Number of minutes. Range is from 10 to 30. Default is 10.

  • infinite -- Disables the age timer.

min-mtu

(Optional) Specifies the minimum Path MTU across GRE tunnels.

  • mtu-bytes-- Number of bytes. Range is from 92 to 65535. Default is 92.

12.2SX

This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Usage Guidelines

When PMTUD (RFC 1191) is enabled on a tunnel interface, the router performs PMTUD processing for the GRE (or IP-in-IP) tunnel IP packets. The router always performs PMTUD processing on the original data IP packets that enter the tunnel. When PMTUD is enabled, no packet fragmentation occurs on the encapsulated packets that travel through the tunnel. Without packet fragmentation, there is a better throughput of TCP connections, and this makes PMTUD a method for maximizing the use of available bandwidth in the network between the endpoints of a tunnel interface.

After PMTUD is enabled, the Don’t Fragment (DF) bit of the IP packet header that is forwarded into the tunnel is copied to the IP header of the external IP packets. The external IP packet is the encapsulating IP packet. Adding the DF bit allows the PMTUD mechanism to work on the tunnel path of the tunnel. The tunnel endpoint listens for Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) unreachable too-big messages and modifies the IP MTU of the tunnel interface, if required.

When the aging timer is configured, the tunnel code resets the tunnel MTU after the aging timer expires. After the tunnel MTU is reset, a set of full-size packets with the DF bit set is required to trigger the tunnel PMTUD and lower the tunnel MTU. At least two packets are dropped each time the tunnel MTU changes.

When PMTUD is disabled, the DF bit of an external (encapsulated) IP packet is set to zero even if the encapsulated packet has a DF bit set to one.

The min-mtu argument sets a low limit on the MTU that can be learned via the PMTUD process. Any ICMP signaling received specifying an MTU less than the minimum MTU configured will be ignored. This feature can be used to prevent a denial of service attack from any node that can send a specially crafted ICMP message to the router, specifying a very small MTU. For more information, see “Crafted ICMP Messages Can Cause Denial of Service ” at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/products_security_advisory09186a0080436587.shtml


Note


PMTUD on a tunnel interface requires that the tunnel endpoint be able to receive ICMP messages generated by routers in the path of the tunnel. Check that ICMP messages can be received before using PMTUD over firewall connections.


PMTUD works only on GRE and IP-in-IP tunnel interfaces.

Use the showinterfacestunnel command to verify the tunnel PMTUD parameters.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable tunnel PMTUD:


Router(config)# interface tunnel 0

tunnel rbscp ack_split

To enable TCP acknowledgement (ACK) splitting for Rate Based Satellite Control Protocol (RBSCP) tunnels, use the tunnelrbscpack_split command in interface configuration mode. To disable TCP acknowledgement splitting for RBSCP tunnels, use the no form of this command.

tunnel rbscp ack_split split-size

no tunnel rbscp ack_split split-size

Syntax Description

split-size

Number of ACKs to send for every ACK received. Range is from 1 to 32. Default is 4.

Command Default

TCP acknowledgement splitting for RBSCP tunnels is disabled.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

12.3(7)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Performance improvements can be made for clear-text TCP traffic using ACK splitting where a number of additional TCP ACKs are generated for each TCP ACK received. TCP will open a congestion window by one maximum transmission unit (MTU) for each TCP ACK received. Opening the congestion window results in increased bandwidth becoming available. Use the tunnelrbscpack_split command only when the satellite link is not using all the available bandwidth. Encrypted traffic cannot use ACK splitting.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable RBSCP tunnel TCP ACK splitting and configure three ACK packets to be sent for each ACK packet received:


Router(config
)
# interface tunnel 0
Router(config
-if)#
 tunnel rbscp ack_split 3

tunnel rbscp delay

To enable the Rate Based Satellite Control Protocol (RBSCP) tunnel delay, use the tunnelrbscpdelay command in interface configuration mode. To disable RBSCP tunnel delay, use the no form of this command.

tunnel rbscp delay

no tunnel rbscp delay

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

RBSCP tunnel delay is disabled.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

12.3(7)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use the tunnelrbscpdelay command only if the RBSCP tunnel has a round-trip time (RTT) over 700 milliseconds.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable the RBSCP tunnel delay:


Router(config
)
# interface tunnel 0
Router(config
-if)#
 tunnel rbscp delay

tunnel rbscp input_drop

To configure the input queue size on a Rate Based Satellite Control Protocol (RBSCP) tunnel, use the tunnelrbscpinput_drop command in interface configuration mode. To restore the default input queue size, use the no form of this command.

tunnel rbscp input_drop bw-delay-products

no tunnel rbscp input_drop

Syntax Description

bw-delay-products

Number of bandwidth delay products (BDP) bytes that can be queued before packets are dropped on the input side. Range from 1 to 10. Default is 2.

Command Default

Input queue size is 2 BDP bytes.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

12.3(7)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use the tunnelrbscpinput_drop command to restrict the amount of data queued by the router. After the configured byte limit is reached, packets that would be encapsulated and sent via the tunnel are dropped on the input side. Congestion control of the satellite link is also provided by this command because the dropped packets will force the end hosts to reduce their sending rate of packets.

Use this command in conjunction with the tunnelrbscplong_drop command which allows packets that are waiting in an RBSCP tunnel encapsulation queue to be dropped after a period of time.

Examples

The following example shows how to set the RBSCP tunnel queue size to 5 BDP bytes:


Router(config
)
# interface tunnel 0
Router(config
-if)#
 tunnel rbscp input_drop 5

tunnel rbscp long_drop

To allow packets to be dropped that have been queued too long for Rate Based Satellite Control Protocol (RBSCP) tunnel encapsulation, use the tunnelrbscplong_drop command in interface configuration mode. To disable the dropping of queued packets, use the no form of this command.

tunnel rbscp long_drop

no tunnel rbscp long_drop

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

No queued packets are dropped.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

12.3(7)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The tunnelrbscplong_drop command allows the transmitting router to drop packets that have been waiting in the queue for RBSCP tunnel encapsulation for a long time. The period of time after which packets are dropped is determined using the round-trip time (RTT) estimate of the tunnel.

Use this command in conjunction with the tunnelrbscpinput_drop command which configures the size of the input queue. After the configured byte limit of the input queue is reached, packets are dropped.

Examples

The following example shows how to allow packets to be dropped when they have been queued for RBSCP tunnel encapsulation too long:


Router(config
)
# interface tunnel 0
Router(config
-if)#
 tunnel rbscp long_drop

tunnel rbscp report

To report dropped Rate Based Satellite Control Protocol (RBSCP) packets to the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), use the tunnelrbscpreport command in interface configuration mode. To disable dropped-packet reporting to SCTP, use the no form of this command.

tunnel rbscp report

no tunnel rbscp report

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

RBSCP dropped-packet reporting is enabled.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

12.3(7)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use the tunnelrbscpreport command to provide early reporting of dropped RBSCP packets to SCTP instead of attempting retransmission of the packets at the router. SCTP will inform the end hosts of the dropped packets and allow the end hosts to retransmit the packets. Reporting dropped packets through SCTP provides better throughput because the packet dropping is not assumed to be caused by congestion.

Examples

The following example shows how to disable the SCTP drop reporting (reporting is enabled by default):


Router(config
)
# interface tunnel 0
Router(config
-if)#
 no tunnel rbscp report

tunnel rbscp window_stuff

To enable TCP window stuffing by increasing the value of the TCP window scale for Rate Based Satellite Control Protocol (RBSCP) tunnels, use the tunnelrbscpwindow_stuff command in interface configuration mode. To restore the default TCP window scale value, use the no form of this command.

tunnel rbscp window_stuff step-size

no tunnel rbscp window_stuff

Syntax Description

step-size

Increment step size for the TCP window scale. Range is from 1 to 20. Default is 1.

Command Default

TCP window stuffing is disabled.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Release

Modification

12.3(7)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use the tunnelrbscpwindow_stuff command to make the sending host believe that the receiving host has a larger window by artificially increasing the TCP window size. RBSCP buffers the additional window and which be configured up to the satellite link bandwidth or the memory available on the router.


Note


The actual TCP window size value that is used by the router may be smaller than the configured value because of the available bandwidth.


Examples

The following example shows how to enable TCP window stuffing on the RBSCP tunnel and configure a window size of 2:


Router(config
)
# interface tunnel 0
Router(config
-if)#
 tunnel rbscp window_stuff 2

tunnel route-via

To specify the outgoing interface of the tunnel transport, use the tunnelroute-via command in interface configuration mode. To disable the source address selection, use the no form of this command.

tunnel route-via interface-type interface-number {mandatory | preferred}

no tunnel route-via

Syntax Description

interface-type

Indicates the type of interface.

interface-number

Indicates the interface number of the interface configured as the tunnel transport.

mandatory

Drops the traffic if the route is not available.

preferred

If the route is not available, forwards the traffic using any available route.

Command Default

This command is disabled by default. The tunnel transport cannot be routed using a subset of the routing table.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History

Release

Modification

12.4(11)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

If the tunnelroute-via interface-type interface-number mandatory command is configured, and there is no route to the tunnel destination using that interface, a point-to-point tunnel interface will go into a down state.

Examples

The following example shows the options that are available to configure the interfaces of the tunnel transport and route the tunnel transport using a subset of the routing table:


Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# interface tunnel 0
Router(config-if)# tunnel route-via ethernet0 mandatory

tunnel sequence-datagrams

To configure a tunnel interface to drop datagrams that arrive out of order, use the tunnelsequence-datagrams command in interface configuration mode. To disable this function, use the no form of this command.

15.1SY

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 15.1SY.

Cisco IOS XE Release 3.7S

This command was modified. The dynamic keyword was added.

15.4(2)S

This command was implemented on the Cisco ASR 901 Series Aggregation Services Router.

Usage Guidelines

The source address is either an explicitly defined IP address or the IP address assigned to the specified interface.

You cannot have two tunnels using the same encapsulation mode with exactly the same source and destination addresses. The workaround is to create a loopback interface and source packets from the loopback interface. This restriction is applicable only for generic routing encapsulation (GRE) tunnels. You can have more than one TE tunnel with the same source and destination addresses.


Note


Only GRE tunneling is supported on Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches.


When using tunnels to Cayman boxes, you must set the tunnel source command to an explicit IP address on the same subnet as the Cayman box, and not the tunnel itself.

GRE tunnel encapsulation and deencapsulation for multicast packets are handled by the hardware. Each hardware-assisted tunnel must have a unique source. Hardware-assisted tunnels cannot share a source even if the destinations are different. You should use secondary addresses on loopback interfaces or create multiple loopback interfaces to ensure that the hardware-assisted tunnels do not share a source.

Examples

The following example shows how to set a tunnel source address for Cayman tunneling:


Device(config)# interface tunnel0
Device(config-if)# tunnel source ethernet0
Device(config-if)# tunnel destination 172.32.164.19
Device(config-if)# tunnel mode cisco1

Examples

The following example shows how to set the tunnel source dynamically:


Device(config)# interface tunnel0
Device(config-if)# tunnel source dynamic
Device(config-if)# *Nov 22 19:38:28.271: Tunnel notified source change: dynamic is set
Device(config-if)# end
Device# show run interface tunnel0
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 63 bytes
!
interface Tunnel0
 no ip address
 tunnel source dynamic
end

If the tunnel source is configured to be set dynamically, you cannot configure the tunnel source address without removing the dynamic configuration.


Device(config)# interface tunnel0
Device(config-if)# tunnel source ethernet 0/0
Device(config-if)# *Nov 22 21:39:52.423: Tunnel notified source change: dynamic is set
*Nov 22 21:39:52.423: Tunnel notified source change, src ip 1.1.1.1

Device(config-if)# tunnel source 10.10.10.1 
Device(config-if)# tunnel destination 10.10.10.2 
Device(config-if)# tunnel mode gre ip 
Device(config-if)# end 

The following example shows how to configure the logical Layer 3 GRE tunnel interface tunnel 2 in VRF environment on Cisco Catalyst 3850 Series Switches. Use the vrf definition vrf-name and thevrf forwarding vrf-name commands to configure and apply VRF.

Device(config)# vrf definition RED
Device(config-vrf)#  address-family ipv4
Device(config-vrf-af)# exit-address-family
Device(config-vrf)#  exit 
Device(config)# interface tunnel 2
Device(config)# vrf forwarding RED

Usage Guidelines

To associate a VRF instance with a specific tunnel destination, ensure that the tunnel source and destination are in the same VRF.

Use the ip vrf forwarding command to associate a VRF instance with an interface or a subinterface other than a tunnel interface.

Use the no ip vrf forwarding vrf-name command or the no tunnel vrf vrf-name command to set either the IP VRF or the tunnel VRF to the global routing table.

The tunnel is disabled if no route to the tunnel destination is defined. If the tunnel VRF is set, you must configure a route to that destination in the VRF.

Cisco 10000 Series Routers and Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers

The VRF associated with the tunnel through the tunnel vrf command is the same as the VRF associated with the physical interface over which the tunnel sends packets (outer IP packet routing).

Usage Guidelines

UDE is supported on the interfaces of these switching modules:

  • WS-X6704-10GE 4-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet

  • WS-X6816-GBIC 16-port Gigabit Ethernet

  • WS-X6516A-GBIC 16-port Gigabit Ethernet

  • WS-X6516-GBIC 16-port Gigabit Ethernet

You do not need to configure software-based UDE on ports where you implement hardware-based UDE.

If an interface is configured with Unidirectional Ethernet or has a receive-only transceiver, UDLD is operationally disabled. Use the showudld command to display the configured and operational states of this interface.

When you apply the UDE configuration to an interface, the following warning message is displayed:


Warning!
Enable port unidirectional mode will automatically disable port udld. You must manually ensure that the unidirectional link does not create a spanning tree loop in the network.
Enable l3 port unidirectional mode will automatically disable ip routing on the port. You must manually configure static ip route and arp entry in order to route ip traffic.

Examples

This example shows how to configure 10-Gigabit Ethernet port 1/1 as a UDE send-only port:


Router(config-if)# unidirectional send-only
Warning!
Enable port unidirectional mode will automatically disable port udld. You must manually 
ensure that the unidirectional link does not create a spanning tree loop in the network.
Enable l3 port unidirectional mode will automatically disable ip routing on the port. You 
must manually configure static ip route and arp entry in order to route ip traffic.

This example shows how to configure 10-Gigabit Ethernet port 1/2 as a UDE receive-only port:


Router(config-if)# unidirectional receive-only
Warning!
Enable port unidirectional mode will automatically disable port udld. You must manually 
ensure that the unidirectional link does not create a spanning tree loop in the network.
Enable l3 port unidirectional mode will automatically disable ip routing on the port. You

upgrade fpd auto

To configure the router to automatically upgrade the current FPD images on a SPA or any FPD-capable cards when an FPD version incompatibly is detected, enter the upgradefpdauto global configuration command. To disable automatic FPD image upgrades, use the no form of this command.

upgrade fpd auto

no upgrade fpd auto

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Cisco 7200 VXR

This command is enabled by default if your router has any installed SPAs or FPD-capable cards. The router checks the FPD image during bootup or after an insertion of a SPA or FPD-capable card. If the router detects an incompatibility between an FPD image and a SPA or FPD-capable card, an automatic FPD upgrade attempt occurs unless the user has disabled automatic FPD upgrades by entering the noupgradefpdauto command. The upgradefpdpath command can be used to direct the router to search for the FPD image package at another location (such as an FTP or TFTP server) when an FPD incompatibility is detected.

The router searches the disk2: Flash Disk for the FPD image package file when an FPD incompatibility is detected and upgradefpdauto is enabled.

The routersearchesthe primary Flash file system (disk0:) for the FPD image package file when an FPD incompatibility is detected and upgradefpdauto is enabled.

Usage Guidelines

This command is enabled by default. In most cases, this default configuration should be retained.

If this command is disabled but an FPD upgrade is required for a SPA, theupgradehw-modulesubslot command can be used to upgrade the SPA FPD image manually after the SPA is disabled because of the existing FPD incompatibility.

If this command is disabled but an FPD upgrade is required for an FPD-capable card on the Cisco 7200 VXR router, you cannot upgrade the card manually. Select the FPD image package and download it to the disk2: Flash Disk, enable the automatic FPD upgrade by using the upgrade fpd auto command, and reboot the router.

Upgrading the FPD image on a SPA or FPD-capable card places the SPA or card offline while the upgrade is taking place. The time required to complete an FPD image upgrade can be lengthy. The showupgradefpdprogress command can be used to gather more information about estimated FPD download times for a particular SPA.

For more information about FPD upgrades on SPA interface processors (SIPs) and shared port adapters (SPAs), refer to the Cisco 7600 Series Router SIP, SSC, and SPA Software Configuration Guide.

upgrade fpd path

To configure the router to search for an FPD image package file in a location other than the default router Flash file system during an automatic FPD upgrade, enter the upgradefpdpath command in global configuration mode. To return to the default setting of the router searching for the FPD image package file in the router Flash file systems when an automatic FPD upgrade is triggered, use the no form of this command.

upgrade fpd path fpd-pkg-dir-url

no upgrade fpd path fpd-pkg-dir-url

Syntax Description

fpd-pkg-dir-url

Specifies the location of the FPD image package file, beginning with the location or type of storage device (examples include disk0, slot0, tftp, or ftp) and followed by the path to the FPD image package file. It is important to note that the name of the FPD image package file should not be specified as part of fpd-pkg-dir-url ; Cisco IOS will automatically download the correct FPD image package file once directed to the proper location.

It is important to note that the last character of the fpd-pkg-dir-url is always a “/”.

Cisco 7200 VXR

The upgradefpdpath command is used to specify a new location for a router to locate the FPD image package file, if you want to store the FPD image package file in a location other than the default router Flash file system for automatic FPD upgrades. The default locations the router searches are as follows:

The router searches the disk2: Flash Disk for the FPD image package file when an FPD incompatibility is detected and upgradefpdauto is enabled.

The routersearchesthe primary Flash file system (disk0:) for the FPD image package file when an FPD incompatibility is detected and upgradefpdauto is enabled.

Usage Guidelines

It is important to note that the last character of the fpd-pkg-dir-url is always a “/”. This path points users to the directory that stores the file, but not the file itself.

When specifying the path to the location of the new FPD image package file, do not include the file name in the path. The Cisco IOS will automatically download the correct FPD image package file once directed to the proper location, even if multiple FPD image package files of different versions are stored in the same location.

If the upgradefpdpath command is not entered, the router searches the default router Flash file system for the FPD image.

For more information about FPD upgrades on SPA interface processors (SIPs) and shared port adapters (SPAs), refer to the Cisco 7600 Series Router SIP, SSC, and SPA Software Configuration Guide.

Examples

In the following example, the FPD image package file that is stored on the TFTP server using the path johnstftpserver/fpdfiles is scanned for the latest FPD image package file when an automatic FPD upgrade occurs:


upgrade fpd path tftp://johnstftpserver/fpdfiles/

In the following example, the FPD package file that is stored on the FTP server using the path johnsftpserver/fpdfiles is scanned for the latest FPD image package when an automatic FPD upgrade occurs. In this example, john is the username and XXXXXXX is the FTP password:


upgrade fpd path ftp://john:XXXXXXX@johnsftpserver/fpdfiles/ 

upgrade fpga

To set router behavior regarding handling of FPGA mismatches after FPGA mismatches are detected, use the upgradefpga command in privileged EXEC mode.

upgrade fpga [force | prompt]

no upgrade fpga

Syntax Description

force

If the force option is entered, an FPGA upgrade will be forced on the system if an FPGA mismatch is detected.

prompt

If the prompt option is entered, the user will be prompted to upgrade the FPGA when an FPGA mismatch is detected.

Command Default

Before Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)S6, users were automatically prompted for an FPGA upgrade when an FPGA version mismatch was detected.

In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)S6, the default setting became noupgradefpga . By default, FPGA is not upgraded when an FPGA version mismatch is detected and the user is not prompted to upgrade the FPGA, although it is important to note that a message indicating the FPGA mismatch is displayed on the console. Users who want to upgrade FPGA must use the upgradefpgaall command to manually perform the upgrade when the default settings are set.

Modification

12.2(20)S4

The upgradefpgaprompt command was introduced

12.2(20)S6

The noupgradefpga command was introduced and became the default setting.

The force option was introduced.

The noupgradefpgaprompt command behavior was changed. The noupgradefpgaprompt configuration no longer automatically begins an FPGA upgrade when an FPGA mismatch is detected.

Usage Guidelines

Note that noupgradefpga is the default setting starting in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)S6. See the Defaults section of this command reference for additional information on the changes to the default setting in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)S6.

This command can be used to upgrade all of the FPGAs in a Cisco 7304 router except for the SPA FPGA. The SPA FPGA is upgraded using an FPD image package.

An FPGA match check is automatically run by the Cisco 7304 router during system bootup or after a piece of hardware with FPGA is installed into an operating Cisco 7304 router. This command defines the behavior for a router after an FPGA mismatch is detected during one of these FPGA match checks. When the default setting of noupgradefpga is maintained, FPGA is not upgraded when an FPGA mismatch is detected and the user is not prompted regarding an FPGA upgrade. If the upgradefpgaprompt command is entered, a prompt asking users whether they would like to perform an FPGA upgrade appears on the console when FPGA mismatches are detected. If the upgradefpgaforce command is entered, an FPGA upgrade occurs automatically when an FPGA mismatch is detected.

In Cisco IOS Releases 12.2(20)S4 and 12.2(20)S5, the noupgradefpgaprompt configuration automatically started an FPGA upgrade when an FPGA mismatch was detected. Starting in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)S6, the noupgradefpgaprompt configuration is the same configuration as noupgradefpga . When this setting of noupgradefpga is maintained, the FPGA is not upgraded when an FPGA mismatch is detected and the user is not prompted regarding an FPGA upgrade.

While the noupgradefpga command can be entered as a configuration command, the upgradefpga command cannot be entered unless the force or prompt options are also entered.

The force or prompt options are not necessary when entering the no upgrade fpga command. The options can be entered, but the system configuration will revert to the noupgradefpga configuration regardless of whether a keyword is entered.

Note that when the FPGA prompt is configured, the prompt appears on the console screen only. If you are connecting to a router using a telnet connection through a line card, SPA, or port adapter, you will not see this prompt. If you are connecting to the router through one of these methods, we recommend not configuring upgradefpgaprompt because you will not be able to see the prompt and the prompt will time out.

Examples

In the following example, the system configuration has been changed so that users will be prompted regarding an FPGA upgrade if an FPGA mismatch is detected during bootup or after an OIR hardware insertion.


Router# upgrade fpga prompt

The following example is the output of a router that has detected an FPGA mismatch when the upgradefpgaprompt command is configured. Note the “Upgrade slot 5 LC FPGA? [y/n]” prompt. In this example, the prompt is answered and the FPGA upgrade is performed.

Modification

12.1(10)EX

This command was introduced.

12.2(11)YZ

Support was added for the 7300-CC-PA.

12.2(18)S

This command was introduced on Cisco 7304 routers running Cisco IOS Release 12.2 S.

12.2(20)S6

The prompt asking users if they would like to reload the line card to complete the FPGA upgrade process was added.

12.2(33)SRA

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.

12.2SX

This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to manually start the FPGA image update process. Automatic FPGA version checking is performed during every system startup for all line cards, processors, and jacket cards in the system. Automatic FPGA version checking is also performed for hardware after insertion of that hardware during an online insertion and removal (OIR).

Traffic disruption for traffic on the hardware upgrading FPGA usually occurs during FPGA upgrades. If you are going to upgrade FPGA using this command, keep this fact in mind.

Before Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)S6, the hardware that had the FPGA upgrade would automatically be reloaded as the final procedure of the FPGA upgrade. In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)S6 onward, the user sees a prompt asking if the hardware should be reloaded to complete the FPGA upgrade. The user can choose to skip the hardware reload at the current time if desired, but the FPGA upgrade is not complete until the hardware is reloaded. If the user chooses not to reload the hardware that is getting the FPGA upgrade, the hardware will have to be reloaded using the hw-module slot-number stop command followed by the hw-module slot-number start command if the hardware is not a processor. If the hardware is a processor, the router must be reloaded.

In cases where the FPGA upgrade is performed but the hardware is not reloaded, users should note that the bundled FPGA version will be transferred to Flash memory but not to the hardware. Therefore, if the showc7300 command is entered to see FPGA versions after an FPGA upgrade has been performed but not completed by reloading the hardware, the bundled FPGA version should match the Flash memory version. After the hardware is reloaded, the bundled, the Flash, and the system FPGA should all match and the upgrade should be complete.

Examples

The following example shows a manual FPGA upgrade for a router using Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)S6 or later. Note that the user elects to reject the NPE-G100 upgrade. More importantly, note the user is prompted about reloading the 6T3 line card to complete the FPGA upgrade after electing to perform that FPGA upgrade. In this example, the user decides to reject the card reload for the 6T3 line card in slot 5 and the FPGA upgrade for that card is not finalized.

Note


The upgrade hw-module slot command is not available in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB and later Cisco IOS 12.2SR releases. It is replaced by the upgrade hw-module slot fpd file command.



Note


The upgrade hw-module slot command is not available in Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T and later Cisco IOS 12.4T releases. It is replaced by the upgrade hw-module slot fpd file command.


To manually upgrade the current FPD image package on a SIP or any FPD-capable cards, enter the upgradehw-moduleslot command in privileged EXEC mode.

Cisco 7200 VXR

upgrade hw-module slot {slot | npe} file file-url

Cisco 7600 Series

upgrade hw-module slot slot file file-url [force]

Syntax Description

slot

Chassis slot number.

Refer to the appropriate hardware manual for slot information. For SIPs, refer to the platform-specific SPA hardware installation guide or the corresponding "Identifying Slots and Subslots for SIPs and SPAs" topic in the platform-specific SPA software configuration guide. For slot numbering in the Cisco 7200 VXR router, refer to refer to the Cisco 7200 VXR Installation and Configuration Guide.

npe

NPE-G2 network processing engine in the Cisco 7200 VXR router.

file

Specifies that a file will be downloaded.

file-url

Specifies the location of the FPD image package file, beginning with the location or type of storage device (examples include disk0 , slot0 , tftp , or ftp ) and followed by the path to the FPD image package file.

force

(Optional) Forces the update of all compatible FPD images in the indicated FPD image package file on the SPA that meet the minimal version requirements. Without this option, the manual upgrade will only upgrade incompatible FPD images.

Cisco 7200 VXR

No default behavior or values.

No default behavior or values, although it is important to note that the router containing the SIP is configured, by default, to upgrade the FPD images when it detects a version incompatibility between the FPD image on the SIP and the FPD image required to run the SPA with the running Cisco IOS image. The upgradehw-moduleslot command is used to manually upgrade the FPD images; therefore, the upgradehw-moduleslot command should only be used when the automatic upgrade default configuration fails to find a compatible FPD image for one of the SPAs or when the automatic upgrade default configuration has been manually disabled. The noupgradefpdauto command can be entered to disable automatic FPD upgrades.

If no FPD incompatibility is detected, this command will not upgrade SPA FPD images unless the force option is entered.

This command was removed. It is not available in Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T and later Cisco IOS 12.4T releases. It is replaced by the upgrade hw-module slot fpd file command.

Usage Guidelines

Cisco 7200 VXR

This command is used to manually upgrade FPD images. Note that for a manual FPD upgrade to take effect on the NPE-G2, you must power cycle the router. The router will not use the new version of the NPE-G2 FPD image if you reload the router without a power cycle. Other FPD-capable cards require only a router reload after a manual FPD upgrade, not a router power cycle.

Cisco 7600 Series

This command is used to manually upgrade the FPD images on a SIP. In most cases, the easiest and recommended method of upgrading FPD images is the automatic FPD upgrade, which is enabled by default. The automatic FPD upgrade detects and automatically upgrades all FPD images when an FPD incompatibility is detected.

A manual FPD upgrade is usually used in the following situations:

  • The target SIP was disabled by the system because of an incompatible FPD image (the system could not find the required FPD image package file).

  • A recovery upgrade must be performed.

  • A special bug fix to an FPD image is provided in the FPD image package file.

The FPD image upgrade process places the SIP and all the SPAs in the SIP offline. The time required to complete an FPD image upgrade can be lengthy. The showupgradefpdprogress command can be used to gather more information about estimated FPD image download times for a particular SIP.

For more information about FPD upgrades on SPA interface processors (SIPs) and shared port adapters (SPAs), see the Cisco 7600 Series Router SIP, SSC, and SPA Software Configuration Guide. For FPD upgrades on the Cisco 7200 VXR router, see the Field-Programmable Device Upgrades feature guide.

To manually upgrade the current FPD image package on a SPA, use the upgradehw-modulesubslot command in privileged EXEC mode.

Cisco 7304

upgrade hw-module subslot slot/ subslot file file-url [reload]

Cisco 7600 Series, Cisco 12000 Series

upgrade hw-module subslot slot/ subslot file file-url [force]

Syntax Description

slot

Chassis slot number.

Refer to the appropriate hardware manual for slot information. For SIPs, refer to the platform-specific SPA hardware installation guide or the corresponding “Identifying Slots and Subslots for SIPs and SPAs” topic in the platform-specific SPA software configuration guide.

subslot

Secondary slot number on a SPA interface processor (SIP) where a SPA is installed.

Refer to the platform-specific SPA hardware installation guide and the corresponding “Specifying the Interface Address on a SPA” topic in the platform-specific SPA software configuration guide for subslot information.

file

Specifies that a file will be downloaded.

file-url

Specifies the location of the FPD image package file, beginning with the location or type of storage device (examples include disk0, slot0, tftp, or ftp) and followed by the path to the FPD image package file.

reload

(Optional) Reloads the SPA to complete the FPD upgrade.

force

(Optional) Forces the update of all compatible FPD images in the indicated FPD image package on the SPA that meet the minimal version requirements. Without this option, the manual upgrade will only upgrade incompatible FPD images.

Cisco 7304

No default behavior or values, although it is important to note that the router containing the SPA is configured, by default, to upgrade the FPD images when it detects a version incompatibility between a the FPD image on the SPA and the FPD image required to run the SPA with the running Cisco IOS image. The upgradehw-modulesubslot command is used to manually upgrade the FPD images; therefore, the upgradehw-modulesubslot command should only be used when the automatic upgrade default configuration fails to find a compatible FPD image for one of the SPAs or when the automatic upgrade default configuration has been manually disabled. The noupgradefpdauto command can be entered to disable automatic FPD upgrades.

By default the SPA is not reloaded to complete the FPD upgrade unless the reload option is entered. Reloading the SPA drops all traffic traversing that SPA’s interfaces. If you want to reload the SPA later to complete the upgrade, do not enter the reload option and perform OIR of the SPA later to complete the FPD upgrade.

If no FPD incompatibility is detected, this command will not upgrade SPA FPD images unless the force option is entered.

This command was removed. It is not available in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SB and later Cisco IOS 12.2SB releases. It is replaced by the upgrade hw-module slot fpd file command.

Usage Guidelines

This command is used to manually upgrade the FPD images on a SPA. In most cases, the easiest and recommended method of upgrading FPD images is the automatic FPD upgrade, which is enabled by default. The automatic FPD upgrade will detect and automatically upgrade all FPD images when an FPD incompatibility is detected.

A manual FPD upgrade is usually used in the following situations:

  • The target SPA was disabled by the system because of an incompatible FPD image (the system could not find the required FPD image package file).

  • A recovery upgrade must be performed.

  • A special bug fix to an FPD image is provided in the FPD image package file.

The FPD image upgrade process places the SPA offline. The time required to complete an FPD image upgrade can be lengthy. The showupgradeprogress command can be used to gather more information about estimated FPD download times for a particular SPA.

For more information about FPD upgrades on SPA interface processors (SIPs) and shared port adapters (SPAs), see the Cisco 7304 Router Modular Services Card and Shared Port Adapter Software Configuration Guide, the Cisco 7600 Series Router SIP, SSC, and SPA Software Configuration Guide, or the Cisco 12000 Series Router SIP and SPA Software Configuration Guide.

Modification

12.1(9)EX

This command was introduced.

12.2(18)S

This command was implemented on Cisco 7304 routers running Cisco IOS Release 12.2 S.

12.2(33)SRA

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.

12.2SX

This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to set a ROMmon image as the default ROMmon image. If this command is not configured, the system uses ROM 0 as the default ROMmon image.

There are three ROMmon images. ROM 0 is a one-time programmable, always-there ROMmon image, referred to as the “golden” ROMmon. ROM 1 and ROM 2 are upgradeable ROMmon images. At bootup, the system uses the golden ROMmon by default. If either ROM 1 or ROM 2 are configured, the system still begins bootup with the golden ROMmon, then switches to the configured ROMmon. If a new configured ROMmon image fails to boot up Cisco IOS, the router marks this ROMmon image as invalid and reverts to the golden image for the next Cisco IOS bootup.

After downloading a new ROMmon image to the writeable ROMmon, you must reload Cisco IOS for the new ROMmon to take effect. The first time a new ROMmon image is loaded, you must allow the system to boot up Cisco IOS before doing any resets or power cycling. If the ROMmon loading process is interrupted, the system interprets this as a bootup failure of the new ROMmon image and reverts the ROMmon back to the golden ROMmon image in ROM 0.

Examples

The following example configures ROM 2 as the default ROMmon image:


Router# upgrade rom-monitor rom2 default
done!
Will take effect on next reload/reset

upgrade satellite satellite

To upgrade the firmware of an NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module through TFTP, use the upgradesatellitesatellite command in privileged EXEC mode.

Release

Modification

12.4(11)XJ2

This command was introduced.

12.4(15)T

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T.

Usage Guidelines

The upgradesatellitesatellite command is used to provide a firmware upgrade of VSATs locally at remote sites through TFTP. This method reduces dependency on a central hub, and allows for ease of update when connected to a service provider who uses third-party hubs.

When the TFTP server is configured on the router, the VSAT firmware is copied to the router flash memory. The TFTP server configuration would be as follows:


tftp-server flash:< <firmware filename>

This configuration would be within the overall router configuration.

When this configuration is done, the upgrade is accomplished by pointing the VSAT to the router IP address in the upgradesatellitesatellite command. The upgrade process will take several minutes.

Examples

The following example shows the response of the NM-1VSAT-GILAT network module to a firmware upgrade command.


Router# upgrade satellite satellite 1/0 9.1.0.1 VSAT_99.06.01.26_Bin.bin
 
Download of new firmware will proceed after a reboot of
 the satellite network module. This could take up to two minutes.
