A IP M ULTICAST R OUTING Overview This appendix describes how to set up your C oreBuilder ™ 6000 system to use IP multicast routing . Before you define an y IP multicast inter faces, you should have pr eviously defined IP inter faces and routes as described in the LANplex® 6000 Extended Switching User Guide .
A-2 A PPENDIX A: IP M ULTICAST R OUTING Enabling and Disabling DVMRP DVMRP is the simple Distance V ec tor Multicast Routing P rotocol, similar to the IP Routing Information P rotocol. Multicast routers exchange distance vector updates that contain lists of destinations and the distance in hops to each destination.
Administering IP Multicast Interfaces A-3 When you select the IGMP option, the inter face prompts you to enable or disable IGMP snooping mode and IGMP quer y mode. Both are enabled by default. Under most conditions, IGMP snooping mode and IGMP quer y mode should remain enabled .
A-4 A PPENDIX A: IP M ULTICAST R OUTING Rate Limit The rate limit determines ho w fast multicast traffic can travel over the inter face in kilobytes per second . Multicast traffic may not exceed this rate limit or the CoreBuilder syst em will drop packets in order to maintain the set rate.
Administering IP Multicast Interfaces A-5 Disabling Multicast Inter faces T o disable multicast routing on an inter face: 1 F rom the top level of the Administration C onsole, enter : ip multicast interface disable 2 Enter the slot(s) of the switching module f or which you want to disable a multicast inter face.
A-6 A PPENDIX A: IP M ULTICAST R OUTING Example: Select IP stack by slot (2,3,7,9-12|all) [12]: Enter an IP interface index [1]: 2 Enter Interface DVMRP metric [1]: 1 Enter Interface TTL threshold [1].
Administering Multicast Tunnels A-7 Defining a Multicast T unnel T o define a multicast tunnel: 1 F rom the top level of the Administration C onsole, enter : ip multicast tunnel define 2 Enter the slot(s) of the switching module f or which you want to define a multicast tunnel.
A-8 A PPENDIX A: IP M ULTICAST R OUTING Removing a Multicast T unnel T o remove an IP multicast tunnel: 1 F rom the top level of the Administration C onsole, enter : ip multicast tunnel remove 2 Enter the slot(s) of the switching module f or which you want to remov e a multicast tunnel.
Displaying Routes A-9 The follo wing display shows all av ailable multicast routes: T able A-1 describes the fields in the route display . Multicast Routing Table (2598 entries) Origin-Subnet From-Gateway Metric Tmr In-If Out-Ifs 157.88.29.1/32 137.39.
A-10 A PPENDIX A: IP M ULTICAST R OUTING Displa ying the Multicast Cache The multicast cache contains the IP source address and destination addr ess for packets obser ved on the system. The multicast cache shows y ou how information is rout ed over interfaces and por ts in your system.
Displaying the Multicast Cache A-11 The follo wing display shows the multicast cache configuration: Multicast Routing Cache Table (125 entries) Origin Mcast-group CTmr Age PTmr In-If Out-Ifs >202.242.133.128/26 224.2.0.1 7m 11m 6m T1P I1p 202.242.
A-12 A PPENDIX A: IP M ULTICAST R OUTING T able A-2 describes the fields in the CacheDisplay . T able A-2 Field Attribut es for the CacheDisplay Field Description Origin The source of the incoming packets. Entries preceded by an angle bracket (>) indicate a multicast subnetwork.
B R EMOTE M ONITORING (RMON) T ECHNOLOGY This appendix provides an overview of RMON and describes the specific CoreBuilder ™ RMON implementation. What Is RMON? The Remote Monit oring (RMON) Management Information Base (MIB) provides a wa y to monitor and analyze a local area network LAN fr om a remote location.
B-2 A PPENDIX B: R EMOTE M ONITORING (RMON) T ECHNOLOGY Benefits of RMON T raditional netw ork management applications poll network devices such as switches, bridges, and routers at regular int er vals from a netw ork management console. The console gathers statistics, identifies trends, and can highlight network events .
RMON Groups B-3 RMON Groups The Cor eBuilder system suppor ts seven of the RMON groups defined b y the Internet Engineering T ask F orce (IETF). T able B-1 lists these supported groups. RMON/FDDI Groups The Cor eBuilder system suppor ts the RMON/FDDI extensions specified in the AX ON Enterprise-specific MIB.
B-4 A PPENDIX B: R EMOTE M ONITORING (RMON) T ECHNOLOGY Statistics and axFDDI Groups The Statistics group recor ds frame statistics for Ethernet and FDDI interfaces.
RMON Groups B-5 History and axFDDI Groups The History group r ecords periodic statistical samples fr om the network and stores them for r etrieval at another time.
B-6 A PPENDIX B: R EMOTE M ONITORING (RMON) T ECHNOLOGY When you disable a port, the application might not update some of the statistics counters associated with it. An alarm calculates the differ ence in counter values over a set time int er val and remembers the high and low v alues.
RMON Groups B-7 Y ou can associate an alarm with the high threshold, the low threshold , or both. The actions taken because of an alarm depend on the network management application. RMON Hysteresis Mechanism The RMON hysteresis mechanism pr ovides a way to prevent small fluctuations in counter values from causing alarms.
B-8 A PPENDIX B: R EMOTE M ONITORING (RMON) T ECHNOLOGY HostT opN Group The HostT opN group pr epares r eports describing hosts that top a list order ed by one of their statistics.
Management Information Base (MIB) B-9 The Cor eBuilder system associates statistics with individual por ts and then takes action based on these statistics. For example , the system can generate a log event and send an RMON trap if errors on a port exceed a user-set threshold .
B-10 A PPENDIX B: R EMOTE M ONITORING (RMON) T ECHNOLOGY MIB Objects The data in the MIB consists of objects that represent featur es of the equipment that an agent can control and manage. Examples of objects in the MIB include a port that you can enable or disable and a counter that you can read.
C VLAN S ON THE C ORE B UILDER S YSTEM This appendix contains: ■ A description of Vir tual LAN ( VLAN) concepts and their operational aspects in the CoreBuilder ™ 6000 system ■ Examples of VLAN configurations About VLANs The VLAN concept in LAN technology helps minimize broadcast and multicast traffic.
C-2 A PPENDIX C: VLAN S ON THE C ORE B UILDER S YSTEM P or t Group VLANs Port group VLANs gr oup together one or more switch ports. This simple implementation of VLANs requir es little configuration. All frames received on a port ar e grouped together .
About VLANs C-3 Protoc ol-Sensitive VLANS When the CoreBuilder system r eceives data that has a broadcast, multicast, or unknown destination address, it forwar ds the data to all ports.
C-4 A PPENDIX C: VLAN S ON THE C ORE B UILDER S YSTEM Lay er 3 Addressing Inf ormation For IP VLANs only , the CoreBuilder system optionally supports configuring of individual IP VLANs with network layer subnet addresses.
About VLANs C-5 Modifying the Default VLAN New switch ports can dynamically appear in the CoreBuilder system if you insert a new switching module (FESM, FSM).
C-6 A PPENDIX C: VLAN S ON THE C ORE B UILDER S YSTEM This example shows how flooding decisions ar e made according to VLANs set up by protocol (assuming an 18-port switch): VLAN Ex ception Flooding .
About VLANs C-7 Overlapped IP VLANs The CoreBuilder system also gives you the ability to assign network layer information to IP VLANs. This capability allows network administrators to manage their VLANs by subnetwork.
C-8 A PPENDIX C: VLAN S ON THE C ORE B UILDER S YSTEM Routing Between VLANs The only way for stations that are in two dif ferent VLANs to communicate is to route between them. The Cor eBuilder system supports internal routing among IP , IPX, and AppleT alk VLANs.
