Configuring Ethernet Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces

Cisco supports 10-Mbps Ethernet, 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet, and 1000-Mbps Gigabit Ethernet. Support for the 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, and 1000-Mbps Ethernet interface is supplied on various Ethernet network interface cards or systems.

Fast Ethernet NP-1FE Module Benefits

  • VLAN routing--VLAN support enables network managers to group users logically rather than by physical location. The high performance of the underlying Cisco 4700, combined with the feature-rich NP-1FE, makes it an ideal combination for a low-density, higher-performance application such as inter-VLAN routing.

  • High-speed interconnections--The Fast Ethernet interface enables network managers to implement Fast-Ethernet routing solutions for optimal cost and performance across a wide range of applications, including campus or enterprise backbones and data centers. It is also a low-cost way to provide Fast-Ethernet access to traditional low-speed WAN services.

  • Local area network aggregation--The Cisco 4500 or the Cisco 4700 series routers can support as many as 12 Ethernet, 4 Token Ring, or 1 FDDI segment. ISDN interfaces are also supported.

With the Catalyst 3000 or Catalyst 5000 system, the Fast Ethernet processor can be used to aggregate up to twelve 10-Mbps LANs and give them high-speed access to such Layer 3 routing services as providing firewalls and maintaining access lists.

Cisco 7200 Series Routers with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet

Cisco 7200 series routers support an I/O controller with an RJ-45 interface for Fast Ethernet support and an I/O controller with both RJ-45 and GBIC interfaces for Gigabit Ethernet support.

The Cisco 7200-I/O-GE+E is an Input/Output controller that provides one Gigabit Ethernet and one Ethernet port. It is equipped with a GBIC receptacle for 1000 Mbps operation and an RJ-45 receptacle for 10-Mbps operation.

The Cisco 7200-I/O-2FE/E is an I/O controller that provides two autosensing Fast Ethernet ports and is equipped with two RJ-45 receptacles for 10/100 Mbps operation.

You can configure the Fast Ethernet port for use at 100-Mbps full-duplex or half-duplex operation (half duplex is the default). The Fast Ethernet port is equipped with either a single MII receptacle or an MII receptacle and an RJ-45 receptacle. To support this new feature, the media-type interface command has been modified. The media-type command now supports two options:

  • 100BASE-X --Specifies an RJ-45 100BASE-X physical connection.

  • mii --Specifies a media-independent interface.

The Gigabit Ethernet interface on the Cisco 7200-I/O-GE+E operates at full duplex and cannot be configured for half-duplex mode.

Second-generation Fast Ethernet Interface Processors (FEIP2-DSW-2TX and FEIP2-DSW-2FX) are available on Cisco 7500 series routers and on Cisco 7000 series routers with the 7000 Series Route Switch Processor (RSP7000) and 7000 Series Chassis Interface (RSP7000CI). The FEIP2-DSW is a dual-port, fixed-configuration interface processor that provides two 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet (FE) interfaces. Each interface on the FEIP2-DSW supports both half-duplex and full-duplex.

Refer to the Cisco Product Catalog for specific platform and hardware compatibility information.

Use the show interfaces, show controllers mci, and show controllers cbusEXEC commands to display the Ethernet port numbers. These commands provide a report for each interface supported by the router or access server.

Use the show interfaces fastethernetcommand to display interface statistics, and use the show controllers fastethernet to display information about the Fast Ethernet controller chip. The output shows statistics, including information about initialization block information, transmit ring, receive ring, and errors.

Use the show interfaces gigabitethernetcommand to display interface statistics, and use the show controllers gigabitethernet to display the information about the Gigabit Ethernet controller chip. The output shows statistics, including information about initialization block information, transmit ring, receive ring, and errors.

Ethernet Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet Interface Configuration Task List

To configure features on an Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Gigabit Ethernet interface, perform the tasks in the following sections:

Specifying an Ethernet Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet Interface

To specify an Ethernet interface and enter interface configuration mode, use one of the following commands in global configuration mode.

Command or Action

Purpose

 
Router(config)# interface ethernet  number

Enters interface configuration mode.

 
Router(config)# interface ethernet  slot / port

Enters interface configuration mode for the Cisco 7200 and Cisco 7500 series routers.

 
Router(config)# interface ethernet slot / port-adapter / port

Enters interface configuration mode for Cisco 7500 series routers.

 
Router(config)# interface fastethernet number

Enters interface configuration mode for the Cisco 4000 series with a Fast Ethernet NIM installed. 

Router(config)# interface fastethernet slot / port

Specifies a Fast Ethernet interface and enters interface configuration mode on the Cisco 7200 series routers.

 
Router(config)# interface fastethernet slot / port-adapter / port

Specifies a Fast Ethernet interface and enters interface configuration mode on the Cisco 7500 series routers.

 
Router(config)# interface gigabitethernet slot / port

Specifies a Gigabit Ethernet interface and enters interface configuration mode on the Cisco 7200 series routers.

To display the Fast Ethernet slots and ports, use the show interfaces fastethernetcommand. The Fast Ethernet network interface module (NIM) and the Fast Ethernet Interface Processor (FEIP) default to half-duplex mode.

Specifying an Ethernet Encapsulation Method

Currently, there are three common Ethernet encapsulation methods:

  • The standard Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) Ethernet Version 2.0 encapsulation, which uses a 16-bit protocol type code (the default encapsulation method).

  • Service access point (SAP) IEEE 802.3 encapsulation, in which the type code becomes the frame length for the IEEE 802.2 LLC encapsulation (destination and source Service Access Points, and a control byte).

  • The SNAP method, as specified in RFC 1042, >Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams Over IEEE 802 Networks , which allows Ethernet protocols to run on IEEE 802.2 media.

The encapsulation method that you use depends upon the routing protocol that you are using, the type of Ethernet media connected to the router or access server, and the routing or bridging application that you configure.

To establish Ethernet encapsulation of IP packets, use one of the following commands in interface configuration mode.

Command or Action

Purpose

 
Router(config-if)# encapsulation arpa

Selects ARPA Ethernet encapsulation.

 
Router(config-if)# encapsulation sap

Selects SAP Ethernet encapsulation.

 
Router(config-if)# encapsulation snap

Selects SNAP Ethernet encapsulation.

For an example of selecting Ethernet encapsulation for IP, see the Ethernet Encapsulation Enablement Example.

Specifying Full-Duplex Operation

The default is half-duplex mode on the FEIP2-DSW-2FX. To enable full-duplex mode on the FEIP2-DSW-2FX (for a maximum aggregate bandwidth of 200 Mbps), use either of the following commands in interface configuration mode.

Command or Action

Purpose

 
Router(config-if)# full-duplex


              
or
              
Router(config-if)# no half-duplex


            



              

Enables full-duplex on the Fast Ethernet interface of the FEIP2-DSW-2FX.


            		









For an example of enabling full-duplex mode on Fast Ethernet, see the Full-Duplex Enablement Operation Example.



Caution

      

To prevent system problems, do not configure both FEIP2-DSW-2FX interfaces for full-duplex operation at the same time.
The FEIP2-DSW-2TX supports half-duplex only and should not be configured for full-duplex.


    






Specifying the Media and Connector Type



You can specify that the Ethernet network interface module (NIM) on the Cisco 4000 series routers use either the default of an attachment unit interface (AUI) and a 15-pin connector, or 10BASE-T and an RJ-45 connector. To do so, use one of the following commands in interface configuration mode.




              

Command or Action


            		

              

Purpose


            		





              
Router(config-if)# media-type aui 


            



              

Selects a 15-pin Ethernet connector.


            		




              
Router(config-if)# media-type 10baset


            



              

Selects an RJ-45 Ethernet connector.


            		









The default media connector type is an RJ-45 or SC (fiber-optic) connector. You can specify that the interface uses either an MII connector, or an RJ-45 or SC (fiber-optic) connector (this is the default). To do so, use one of the following commands in interface configuration mode.




              

Command or Action


            		

              

Purpose


            		





              
Router(config-if)# media-type mii 


            



              

Selects an MII Ethernet connector.


            		




              
Router(config-if)# media-type 100basex


            



              

Selects an RJ-45 Ethernet connector for the FEIP2-DSW-2TX or an SC connector for the FEIP2-DSW-2FX.


            		









Note

When using the I/O controller that is equipped with an MII receptacle and an RJ-45 receptacle, only one receptacle can be configured for use at a time.








Extending the 10BASE-T Capability



On a Cisco 4000 series or Cisco 4500 series routers, you can extend the twisted-pair 10BASE-T capability beyond the standard 100 meters by reducing the squelch
 (signal cutoff time). This feature applies only to the LANCE controller 10BASE-T interfaces. LANCE is the AMD controller chip for the Cisco 4000 and Cisco 4500 Ethernet interface and does not apply to the Fast Ethernet interface.



To reduce squelch, use the first command in the following table in interface configuration mode. You can later restore the squelch by using the second command.




              

Command or Action


            		

              

Purpose


            		





              
Router(config-if)# squelch reduced 


            



              

Reduces the squelch.


            		




              
Router(config-if)# squelch normal 


            



              

Returns squelch to normal.


            		












Configuring Fast Ethernet 100BASE-T


 
		
 You must configure the Fast Ethernet 100BASE-T interface on a Cisco AS5300 so that it can be recognized as a device on the Ethernet LAN. The Fast Ethernet interface supports 10- and 100-Mbps speeds with the 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T routers, hubs, and switches.
		

 
		
 To configure the interface, use the following commands beginning in privileged EXEC mode.

    Configuring PA-12E 2FE Port Adapters
    

    
The PA-12E/2FE Ethernet switch port adapter provides Cisco 7200 series routers with up to twelve 10-Mbps and two 10/100-Mbps switched Ethernet (10BASE-T) and Fast Ethernet (100BASE-TX) interfaces for an aggregate bandwidth of 435 Mbps, full-duplex. The PA-12E/2FE port adapter supports the Ethernet, IEEE 802.3, and IEEE 802.3u specifications for 10-Mbps and 100-Mbps transmission over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cables.
    

    
The PA-12E/2FE port adapter offloads Layer 2 switching from the host CPU by using store-and-forward or cut-through switching technology between interfaces within the same virtual LAN (VLAN) on the PA-12E/2FE port adapter. The PA-12E/2FE port adapter supports up to four VLANs (bridge groups). 
    


    Note
    
The PA-12E/2FE port adapter is a dual-width port adapter, which means it occupies two horizontally aligned port adapter slots when installed in a Cisco 7200 series router. (Single-width port adapters occupy individual port adapter slots in a Cisco 7200 series router.)
    

    

    
All interfaces on the PA-12E/2FE port adapter support autosensing and autonegotiation of the proper transmission mode (half-duplex or full-duplex) with an attached device. The first two PA-12E/2FE interfaces (port 0 and port 1) also support autosensing and autonegotiation of the proper connection speed (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) with an attached device. If an attached device does not support autosensing and autonegotiation of the proper transmission mode, the PA-12E/2FE interfaces attached to the device automatically enter half-duplex mode. Use the show system:running-configcommand to determine if a PA-12E/2FE interface is autosensing and autonegotiating the proper transmission mode with an attached device. Use the full-duplexand the half-duplex commands to change the transmission mode of a PA-12E/2FE interface. After changing the transmission mode, use the show interfacescommand to verify the transmission mode of the interface.
    


    Note
    
If you use the full-duplexand the half-duplex commands to change the transmission mode of the first two PA-12E/2FE interfaces (port 0 and port 1), the transmission speed of the two PA-12E/2FE interfaces automatically defaults to 100-Mbps. The first two PA-12E/2FE interfaces operate only at 10 Mbps when the interfaces are autosensing and autonegotiating the proper connection speed (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) with an attached device.
    

    

    
To configure the PA-12E/2FE port adapter, perform the tasks in the following sections. Each task in the list is identified as either required or optional.
    


    Note
    
If you plan to use a PA-12E/2FE interface to boot from a network (using TFTP), ensure that the interface is configured for a loop-free environment, that an IP address is configured for the interface’s bridge-group virtual interface, and that system boot image 11.2(10)P is installed on your router (use the show version command to view the system boot image of your router). Then, before
 booting from the network server, use the bridge-group bridge-group number spanning-disabled command to disable the Spanning Tree Protocol configured on the interface to keep the TFTP server from timing out and closing the session. For detailed information about booting from a network using TFTP, loading a system image from a network server, and configuring the Spanning Tree Protocol on your Cisco 7200 series router, refer to the PA-12E/2FE Ethernet Switch Port Adapter 
book that accompanies the hardware and to the Cisco IOS Bridging and IBM Networking Configuration Guide. 
    

    

    
For information on other commands that can be used to configure a PA-12E/2FE port adapter, refer to the CiscoIOS Interface and Hardware Component Command Reference
. For information on bridging, refer to the "Configuring Transparent Bridging" chapter in the CiscoIOS Bridging and IBM Networking Configuration Guide
.
    

    
For PA-12E/2FE port adapter configuration examples, see the PA-12E 2FE Port Configuration Examples.
    

    

    Configuring the PA-12E 2FE Port Adapter
    

    
      
    
This section provides instructions for a basic configuration. You might also need to enter other configuration commands depending on the requirements for your system configuration and the protocols that you plan to route on the interface. For complete descriptions of configuration commands and the configuration options available, refer to the other configuration guides and command references in the Cisco IOS documentation set.
    

      
    
To configure the interfaces on the PA-12E/2FE port adapter, use the following commands beginning in global configuration mode.

        Configuring Bridge Groups Using the 12E 2FE VLAN Configuration WebTool
        

         The 12E/2FE VLAN Configuration WebTool, shown in the figure below, is a web browser-based Java applet that displays configured interfaces and bridge groups for PA-12E/2FE port adapters installed in Cisco routers. With the WebTool you can perform the following tasks: 
	 
        

        •  Create and delete bridge groups (also referred to as VLANs) 
		
          

          • 

        •  Add and remove PA-12E/2FE interfaces from bridge groups 
		
          

          • 

        •  Assign colors to bridge groups and PA-12E/2FE interfaces 
		
          

          • 

        •  Administratively shut down (disable) and bring up (enable) PA-12E/2FE interfaces 
		
          

          • 

        •  View the bridge-group status of each PA-12E/2FE interface 
		
          

          • 

        

         You can access the 12E/2FE VLAN Configuration WebTool from the home page of your router. For complete procedures on how to use the VLAN Configuration WebTool, refer to the 
		PA-12E/2FE Ethernet Switch Port Adapter 
		 book that accompanies the hardware. 
	 
        

         All Cisco routers that run Cisco IOS Release 11.0 or later have a home page. All Cisco router home pages are password protected. Contact your network administrator if you do not have the name or password for your Cisco 7200 series router. 
	 
        

         If your router has an installed PA-12E/2FE port adapter, the 12E/2FE VLAN Configuration WebTool shown in the figure above can be accessed from the home page of the router using a Java-enabled web browser.

                Configuring an FDDI Interface
                

                 The FDDI is an ANSI-defined standard for a timed 100-Mbps token passing over a fiber-optic cable. FDDI is not supported on access servers. 
	 
                

                 A FDDI network consists of two counter-rotating, token-passing fiber-optic rings. On most networks, the primary ring is used for data communication and the secondary ring is used as a hot standby. The FDDI standard sets a total fiber length of 200 kilometers. (The maximum circumference of the FDDI network is only half the specified kilometers because of the wrapping or looping back of the signal that occurs during fault isolation.) 
	 
                

                 The FDDI standard allows a maximum of 500 stations with a maximum distance of 2 kilometers between active stations, when interconnecting them with multimode fiber, or a maximum distance of 10 kilometers between them when interconnected via single mode fiber, both of which are supported by FDDI interface controllers. The FDDI frame can contain a minimum of 17 bytes and a maximum of 4500 bytes. Cisco FDDI implementation supports Station Management (SMT) Version 7.3 of the X3T9.5 FDDI specification, offering a single MAC dual-attach interface that supports fault-recovery methods of dual attachment stations (DASs). The mid-range platforms also support single attachment stations (SASs).
	 
                

                 Refer to the 
		Cisco Product Catalog for specific information on platform and interface compatibility. For installation and configuration information, refer to the installation and configuration publication for the appropriate interface card or port adapter. 
	 
                

                

                Source-Route Bridging over FDDI on Cisco 4000-M  Cisco 4500-M  and Cisco 4700-M Routers
                

                
Source-route bridging (SRB) is supported on the FDDI interface to the Cisco 4000-M, Cisco 4500-M, and Cisco 4700-M routers. For instructions on configuring autonomous FDDI SRB or fast-switching SRB over FDDI, refer to the "Configuring Source-Route Bridging" chapter of the CiscoIOS Bridging and IBM Networking Configuration Guide
.
                

                

                

                Particle-Based Switching of Source-Route Bridge Packets on Cisco 7200 Series Routers
                

                
SRB is supported over FDDI. Particle-based switching is supported for SRB packets (over FDDI and Token Ring) by default.
                

                
Particle-based switching adds scatter-gather capability to SRB to improve performance. Particles represent a communications data packet as a collection of noncontiguous buffers. The traditional Cisco IOS packet has a packet type control structure and a single contiguous data buffer. A particle packet has the same packet type control structure, but also maintains a queue of particle type structures, each of which manages its own block. 
                

                
The scatter-gather architecture used by particle-based switching provides the following advantages:
                

                • 
Allows drivers to use memory more efficiently (especially when using media that has a large maximum transmission unit [MTU]). For example, Token Ring buffers could be 512 bytes rather than 16 KB.
                  

                  • 

                • 
Allows concurrent use of the same region of memory. For example, on IP multicast a single packet is received and sent out on multiple interfaces simultaneously.
                  

                  • 

                • 
Allows insertion or deletion of memory at any location in a packet (not just at the beginning or end).
                  

                  •

                Using Connection Management Information
                

                
Connection management (CMT) is a FDDI process that handles the transition of the ring through its various states (off, on, active, connect, and so on) as defined by the X3T9.5 specification. The FIP (FDDI Interface Processor) provides CMT functions in microcode. 
                

                
A partial sample output of the show interfaces fddi command follows, along with an explanation of how to interpret the CMT information in the output.
                

                Phy-A state is active, neighbor is B, cmt signal bits 08/20C, status ALS
Phy-B state is active, neighbor is A, cmt signal bits 20C/08, status ILS
CFM is thru A, token rotation 5000 usec, ring operational 0:01:42
Upstream neighbor 0800.2008.C52E, downstream neighbor 0800.2008.C52E

                

                
The show interfaces fddi example shows that Physical A (Phy-A) completed CMT with its neighbor. The state is active, and the display indicates a Physical B-type neighbor.
                

                
The sample output indicates CMT signal bits 08/20C for Phy-A. The transmit signal bits are 08. Looking at the pulse code modulation (PCM) state machine, 08 indicates that the port type is A, that the port compatibility is set, and that the LCT duration requested is short. The receive signal bits are 20C, that indicate that the neighbor type is B, that port compatibility is set, that there is a MAC on the port output, and so on.
                

                
The neighbor is determined from the received signal bits, as follows:
                


                
              
                
Bit Positions
                

                            		

              
                
   9   8   7   6   5   4   3   2   1   0
                

                            		

                

                
              
                
Value Received
                

                            		

              
                
   1   0   0   0   0   0   1   1   0   0
                

                            		

                
                

                

                

                
Interpreting the bits in the diagram above, the received value equals 0x20C. Bit positions 1 and 2 (0 1) indicate a Physical B-type connection.
                

                
The transition states displayed indicate that the CMT process is running and actively trying to establish a connection to the remote physical connection. The CMT process requires state transition with different signals being transmitted and received before moving on to the state ahead as indicated in the PCM state machine. The 10 bits of CMT information are transmitted and received in the Signal State. The NEXT state is used to separate the signaling performed in the Signal State. Therefore, in the preceding sample output, the NEXT state was entered 11 times.
                


                Note
                
The display line showing transition states is not generated if the FDDI interface has been shut down, or if the cmt disconnect command has been issued, or if the fddi if-cmt command has been issued. (The fddi if-cmt command applies to the Cisco 7500 series routers only.)
                

                

                
The CFM state is through A in the sample output, which means the Phy-A of this interface has successfully completed CMT with the Phy-B of the neighbor and Phy-B of this interface has successfully completed CMT with the Phy-A of the neighbor.
                

                
The display (or nondisplay) of the upstream and downstream neighbor does not affect the ability to route data. Because the upstream neighbor is also its downstream neighbor in the sample, there are only two stations in the ring: the network server and the router at address 0800.2008.C52E. 
                

                

                

                FDDI Configuration Task List

                Router(config)# interface fddi  slot / port

                

            
                
                		

              
                
Enters interface configuration for the Cisco 7200 or Cisco 7500 series routers.
                

                            		

                
                

                

                

                

                

                Enabling FDDI Bridging Encapsulation
                

                
By default, Cisco FDDI uses the SNAP encapsulation format defined in RFC 1042. It is not necessary to define an encapsulation method for this interface when using the FIP.
                

                
FIP fully supports transparent and translational bridging for the following configurations:
                

                • 
FDDI-to-FDDI
                  

                  • 

                • 
FDDI-to-Ethernet
                  

                  • 

                • 
FDDI-to-Token Ring
                  

                  • 

                

                
Enabling FDDI bridging encapsulation places the FIP into encapsulation mode when doing bridging. In transparent mode, the FIP interoperates with earlier versions of encapsulating interfaces when performing bridging functions on the same ring. When using the FIP, you can specify the encapsulation method by using the following command in interface configuration mode. 
                


                
              
                
Command or Action
                

                            		

              
                
Purpose
                

                            		

                
                

                
              
                Router(config-if)# fddi encapsulate
                

            
                
                		

              
                
Specifies the encapsulation method for the FIP.
                

                            		

                
                

                

                

                
When you are doing translational bridging, use routing for routable protocols and use translational bridging for the rest, such as local-area transport (LAT).
                


                Note
                
Bridging between dissimilar media presents several problems that can prevent communications. These problems include bit-order translation (using MAC addresses as data), maximum transfer unit (MTU) differences, frame status differences, and multicast address usage. Some or all of these problems might be present in a multimedia-bridged LAN and might prevent communication. These problems are most prevalent in networks that bridge between Token Ring and Ethernet networks or between Token Ring and FDDI because of the different ways that Token Ring is implemented by the end nodes.
                

                

                
We are currently aware of problems with the following protocols when bridged between Token Ring and other media: AppleTalk, DECnet, IP, Novell IPX, Phase IV, VINES, and XNS. Further, the following protocols might have problems when bridged between FDDI and other media: Novell IPX and XNS. We recommend that these protocols be routed whenever possible.
                

                

                

                Enabling Full-Duplex Mode on the FDDI Interface
                

                
To enable full-duplex mode on the PA-F/FD-SM and PA-F/FD-MM port adapters, use one of the following commands in interface configuration mode.

                Router(config-if)# full-duplex
                

              
                

             
or
              
                Router(config-if)# no half-duplex
                

            
                
                		

              
                
Enables full-duplex on the FDDI interface of the PA-F/FD-SM and PA-F/FD-MM port adapter.
                

                            		

                
                

                

                

                

                

                Setting the Token Rotation Time
                

                
You can set the FDDI token rotation time to control ring scheduling during normal operation and to detect and recover from serious ring error situations. To do so, use the following command in interface configuration mode.
                


                
              
                
Command or Action
                

                            		

              
                
Purpose
                

                            		

                
                

                
              
                Router(config-if)# fddi token-rotation-time  microseconds
                

            
                
                		

              
                
Sets the FDDI token rotation time.
                

                            		

                
                

                

                

                
The FDDI standard restricts the allowed time to greater than 4000 microseconds and less than 165,000 microseconds. As defined in the X3T9.5 specification, the value remaining in the token rotation timer (TRT) is loaded into the token holding timer (THT). Combining the values of these two timers provides the means to determine the amount of bandwidth available for subsequent transmissions.
                

                

                

                Setting the Transmission Valid Timer
                

                
You can set the transmission timer to recover from a transient ring error by using the following command in interface configuration mode.

Purpose
                

                            		

                
                

                
              
                Router(config-if)# fddi valid-transmission-time  microseconds
                

            
                
                		

              
                
Sets the FDDI valid transmission timer.
                

                            		

                
                

                

                

                

                

                Controlling the Transmission Timer
                

                
You can set the FDDI control transmission timer to control the FDDI TL-Min time, which is the minimum time to transmit a Physical Sublayer or PHY line state before advancing to the next Physical Connection Management or PCM state as defined by the X3T9.5 specification. To do so, use the following command in interface configuration mode.

Sets the FDDI control transmission timer.
                

                            		

                
                

                

                

                

                

                Modifying the C-Min Timer
                

                
You can modify the C-Min timer on the PCM from its default value of 1600 microseconds by using the following command in interface configuration mode.

                Controlling the CMT Microcode
                

                
You can control whether the CMT onboard functions are on or off. The FIP provides CMT functions in microcode. These functions are separate from those provided on the processor card and are accessed through EXEC commands.
                

                
The default is for the FIP CMT functions to be on. A typical reason to disable these functions is when you work with new FDDI equipment and have problems bringing up the ring. If you disable the CMT microcode, the following actions occur:
                

                • 
The FIP CMT microcode is disabled.
                  

                  • 

                • 
The main system code performs the CMT function while debugging output is generated.
                  

                  • 

                

                
To disable the CMT microcode, use the following command in interface configuration mode.

                Starting and Stopping FDDI
                

                
In normal operation, the FDDI interface is operational once the interface is connected and configured. You can start and stop the processes that perform the CMT function and allow the ring on one fiber to be stopped. To do so, use either of the following commands in EXEC mode.

Stops CMT processes on a FDDI ring.
                

                            		

                
                

                

                

                
Do not use either of the preceding commands during normal operation of FDDI; they are used during interoperability tests.
                

                

                

                Setting FDDI Frames per Token Limit
                

                
      
                
The FDDI interface is able to transmit multiple frames per token on a Cisco 4000, a Cisco 4500, and a Cisco 4700 series router, instead of transmitting only a single frame at a time. You can specify the maximum number of frames to be transmitted with each token capture. This significantly improves your throughput when you have heavy or very bursty traffic.
                

      
                
To configure the FDDI interface to transmit a maximum number of frames per token capture, use the following commands beginning in privileged EXEC mode.

                  Controlling the FDDI SMT Message Queue Size
                  

                  
You can set the maximum number of unprocessed FDDI Station Management (SMT) frames that will be held for processing. Setting this number is useful if the router that you are configuring gets bursts of messages that arrive faster than the router can process. To set the number of frames, use the following command in global configuration mode.

                  Preallocating Buffers for Bursty FDDI Traffic
                  

                  
The FCI card preallocates three buffers to handle bursty FDDI traffic (for example, Network File System (NFS) bursty traffic). You can change the number of preallocated buffers use the following command in interface configuration mode.

                  Configuring a Hub Interface
                  

                  
Cisco 2500 series includes routers that have hub functionality for an Ethernet interface. The hub is a multiport repeater. The advantage of an Ethernet interface over a hub is that the hub provides a star-wiring physical network configuration while the Ethernet interface provides 10BASE-T physical network configuration. The router models with hub ports and their configurations are as follows:

                    Disabling or Enabling Automatic Receiver Polarity Reversal
                    

                    
On Ethernet hub ports only, the hub ports can invert, or correct, the polarity of the received data if the port detects that the received data packet waveform polarity is reversed because of a wiring error. This receive circuitry polarity correction allows the hub to repeat subsequent packets with correct polarity. When enabled, this function is executed once after reset of a link fail state.
                    

                    
Automatic receiver polarity reversal is enabled by default. To disable this feature on a per-port basis, use the following command in hub configuration mode.

                    Disabling or Enabling the Link Test Function
                    

                    
The link test function applies to Ethernet hub ports only. The Ethernet ports implement the link test function as specified in the 802.3 10BASE-T standard. The hub ports will transmit link test pulses to any attached twisted pair device if the port has been inactive for more than 8 to 17 milliseconds.
                    

                    
If a hub port does not receive any data packets or link test pulses for more than 65 to 132 milliseconds and the link test function is enabled for that port, that port enters link fail state and cannot transmit or receive. The hub port is enabled again when it receives four consecutive link test pulses or a data packet.
                    

                    
The link test function is enabled by default. To allow the hub to interoperate with 10BASE-T twisted-pair networks that do not implement the link test function, the link test receive function of the hub can be disabled on a per-port basis. To do so, use the following command in hub configuration mode.

                    Enabling Source Address Control
                    

                    
On an Ethernet hub port only, you can configure a security measure such that the port accepts packets only from a specific MAC address. For example, suppose your workstation is connected to port 3 on a hub, and source address control is enabled on port 3. Your workstation has access to the network because the hub accepts any packet from port 3 with the MAC address of the workstation. Any packets that arrive with a different MAC address cause the port to be disabled. The port is enabled again after 1 minute, and the MAC address of incoming packets is checked again.
                    

                    
To enable source address control on a per-port basis, use the following command in hub configuration mode.

                    Router(config-hub)# source-address [mac-address]
                    

            
                    
                    		

              
                    
Enables source address control.
                    

                                		

                    
                    

                    

                    

                    
If you omit the optional MAC address, the hub remembers the first MAC address that it receives on the selected port and allows only packets from the learned MAC address.
                    

                    
See the examples of establishing source address control in the Hub Configuration Examples.

What to Do Next
                      

		
                       You may need to set up a host receiver for this trap type (snmp-server host) for a Network Management System (NMS) to receive this trap type. The default is no trap. For an example of configuring a SNMP trap for an Ethernet hub port, see the 
		  Hub Configuration Examples.
		
                      
 
	 
                      

                      

                      

                      Configuring a Token Ring Interface
                      

                      
Cisco supports various Token Ring interfaces. Refer to the Cisco Product Catalog
 for information about platform and hardware compatibility.
                      

                      
The Token Ring interface supports both routing (Layer 3 switching) and source-route bridging (Layer 2 switching) on a per-protocol basis. For example, IP traffic could be routed, while SNA traffic is bridged. Routing features enhance source-route bridges
                      

                      
The Token Ring MIB variables support the specification in RFC 1231, IEEE 802.5 Token Ring MIB
. The mandatory Interface Table and Statistics Table are implemented, but the optional Timer Table of the Token Ring MIB is not. The Token Ring MIB has been implemented for the Token Ring Interface Processor (TRIP).
                      

                      
Use the show interfaces, show controllers token, and show controllers cbusEXEC commands to display the Token Ring numbers. These commands provide a report for each ring that Cisco IOS software supports.
                      


                      Note
                      
If the system receives an indication of a cabling problem from a Token Ring interface, it puts that interface into a reset state and does not attempt to restart it. It functions this way because periodic attempts to restart the Token Ring interface drastically affect the stability of routing tables. Once you have plugged the cable into the MAU (media attachment unit) again, restart the interface by using the clear interface tokenring numbercommand, where the number argument is the interface number.
                      

                      

                      
By default, the Token Ring interface uses the SNAP encapsulation format defined in RFC 1042. It is not necessary to define an encapsulation method for this interface.

Particle-based switching is supported for SRB packets (over FDDI and Token Ring) by default.
                      

                      
Particle-based switching adds scatter-gather capability to SRB to improve performance. Particles represent a communications data packet as a collection of noncontiguous buffers. The traditional Cisco IOS packet has a packet type control structure and a single contiguous data buffer. A particle packet has the same packet type control structure, but it also maintains a queue of particle type structures, each of which manages its own block. 
                      

                      
The scatter-gather architecture used by particle-based switching provides the following advantages:
                      

                      • 
Allows drivers to use memory more efficiently (especially when using media that has a large maximum transmission unit [MTU]). For example, Token Ring buffers could be 512 bytes rather than 16 KB.
                        

                        • 

                      • 
Allows concurrent use of the same region of memory. For example, on IP multicast a single packet is received and sent out on multiple interfaces simultaneously.
                        

                        • 

                      • 
Allows insertion or deletion of memory at any location in a packet (not just at the beginning or end).
                        

                        •

                      Dedicated Token Ring Port Adapter
                      

                      
The Dedicated Token Ring port adapter (PA-4R-DTR) is available on Cisco 7500 series routers, Cisco 7200 series routers, and Cisco 7000 series routers with the 7000 Series Route Switch Processor (RSP7000) and 7000 Series Chassis Interface (RSP7000CI). 
                      

                      
The PA-4R-DTR provides up to four IBM Token Ring or IEEE 802.5 Token Ring interfaces. Each Token Ring interface can be set for 4-Mbps or 16-Mbps half-duplex or full-duplex operation and can operate as a standard Token Ring station or as a concentrator port. The default for all interfaces is Token Ring station mode with half-duplex 16-Mbps operation. The PA-4R-DTR connects over Type 1 lobe or Type 3 lobe cables, with each interface providing an RJ-45 receptacle.

                      Enabling Early Token Release
                      

                      
Cisco Token Ring interfaces support early token release, a method whereby the interface releases the token back onto the ring immediately after transmitting rather than waiting for the frame to return. This feature can help to increase the total bandwidth of the Token Ring. To configure the interface for early token release, use the following command in interface configuration mode.

                      PA-12E 2FE Port Configuration Examples
                      

                      
The following is an example of a configuration for the PA-12E/2FE port adapter interface. Bridge groups 10, 20, and 30 use IEEE Spanning Tree Protocol. The first four interfaces of a PA-12E/2EF port adapter in port adapter slot 3 use bridge groups 10 and 20. Each interface is assigned to a bridge group, and the shutdown state is set to up. The PA-12E/2FE port adapter supports store-and-forward or cut-through switching technology between interfaces within the same bridge group; store-and-forward is the default. In the following example, the cut-throughcommand is used to configure each interface for cut-through switching of received and transmitted data:

                      Fast EtherChannel Configuration Examples
                      

                       The figure below shows four point-to-point Fast Ethernet interfaces that are aggregated into a single Fast EtherChannel interface. 
	 
                      

                       The configuration file that illustrates this topology follows. 
	 
                      

                       The following is an example of how to create a Fast EtherChannel (port-channel interface) with four Fast Ethernet interfaces. In this example, ISL is enabled on the Fast EtherChannel, and an IP address is assigned to the subinterface. 
	 
                      

                      Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# interface port-channel 1 
Router(config-if)# no shutdown 
Router(config-if)# exit
Router(config)# interface port-channel 1.1
Router(config-if)# ip address 10.1.1.10 255.255.255.0 
Router(config-if)# encapsulation isl 100
Router(config-if)# exit
Router(config)# interface fastethernet 0/0/0
Router(config-if)# no ip address
Router(config-if)# channel-group 1
Fast Ethernet 0/0 added as member-1 to port-channel1.
Router(config-if)# exit
Router(config)# interface fastethernet 0/1/0
Router(config-if)# no ip address
Router(config-if)# channel-group 1
Fast Ethernet 0/1 added as member-2 to port-channel1.
Router(config-if)# exit
Router(config)# interface fastethernet 1/0/0
Router(config-if)# no ip address
Router(config-if)# channel-group 1
Fast Ethernet 1/0 added as member-3 to port-channel1.
Router(config-if)# exit
Router(config)# interface fastethernet 1/1/0
Router(config-if)# no ip address
Router(config-if)# channel-group 1
Fast Ethernet 1/1 added as member-4 to port-channel1.
Router(config-if)# exit
Router(config)# exit
Router#

                      

                       The following is a partial example of a configuration file. The MAC address is automatically added to the Fast Ethernet interface when the interfaces are added to the Fast EtherChannel. 
	 
                      


                      Note
                       If you do not assign a static MAC address on the port-channel interface, the Cisco IOS software automatically assigns a MAC address. If you assign a static MAC address and then later remove it, the Cisco IOS software automatically assigns a MAC address.

                      Hub Configuration Examples
                      

                      
This section provides the following hub configuration examples:
                      

                      

                      Hub Port Startup Examples
                      

                      
The following example configures port 1 on hub 0 of Ethernet interface 0:
                      

                      hub ethernet 0 1
 no shutdown

                      

                      
The following example configures ports 1 through 8 on hub 0 of Ethernet interface 0:
                      

                      hub ethernet 0 1 8
 no shutdown
                      

                      

                      

                      Source Address for an Ethernet Hub Port Configuration Examples
                      

                      
The following example configures the hub to allow only packets from MAC address 1111.2222.3333 on port 2 of hub 0:
                      

                      hub ethernet 0 2
 source-address 1111.2222.3333

                      

                      
The following example configures the hub to remember the first MAC address received on port 2 and allow only packets from that learned MAC address:
                      

                      hub ethernet 0 2
 source-address
                      

                      

                      

                      Hub Port Shutdown Examples
                      

                      
The following example shuts down ports 3 through 5 on hub 0:
                      

                      hub ethernet 0 3 5
 shutdown

                      

                      
The following example shuts down port 3 on hub 0:
                      

                      hub ethernet 0 3
 shutdown
                      

                      

                      

                      SNMP Illegal Address Trap Enablement for Hub Port Example
                      

                      
The following example specifies the gateway IP address and enables an SNMP trap to be issued to the host 172.16.40.51 when a MAC address violation is detected on hub ports 2, 3, or 4. It specifies that Ethernet interface 0 is the source for all traps on the router. The community string is defined as the string public and the read/write parameter is set.
                      

                      ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.22.10.1
snmp-server community public rw
snmp-server trap-source ethernet 0
snmp-server host 172.16.40.51 public
hub ethernet 0 2 4
snmp trap illegal-address

                      Configuring Ethernet Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces
                      

                       Cisco supports 10-Mbps Ethernet, 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet, and 1000-Mbps Gigabit Ethernet. Support for the 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, and 1000-Mbps Ethernet interface is supplied on various Ethernet network interface cards or systems.
	 
                      

                      Fast Ethernet NP-1FE Module Benefits
                       
		 
		
                      •  VLAN routing--VLAN support enables network managers to group users logically rather than by physical location. The high performance of the underlying Cisco 4700, combined with the feature-rich NP-1FE, makes it an ideal combination for a low-density, higher-performance application such as inter-VLAN routing.
		  
                        

                        • 

                      •  High-speed interconnections--The Fast Ethernet interface enables network managers to implement Fast-Ethernet routing solutions for optimal cost and performance across a wide range of applications, including campus or enterprise backbones and data centers. It is also a low-cost way to provide Fast-Ethernet access to traditional low-speed WAN services.
		  
                        

                        • 

                      •  Local area network aggregation--The Cisco 4500 or the Cisco 4700 series routers can support as many as 12 Ethernet, 4 Token Ring, or 1 FDDI segment. ISDN interfaces are also supported.
		  
                        

                        • 

                      
 
		
                       With the Catalyst 3000 or Catalyst 5000 system, the Fast Ethernet processor can be used to aggregate up to twelve 10-Mbps LANs and give them high-speed access to such Layer 3 routing services as providing firewalls and maintaining access lists. 
		
                      
 
	 
                      

                      Cisco 7200 Series Routers with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet
                       
		 
		
                       Cisco 7200 series routers support an I/O controller with an RJ-45 interface for Fast Ethernet support and an I/O controller with both RJ-45 and GBIC interfaces for Gigabit Ethernet support. 
		
                      
 
		
                       The Cisco 7200-I/O-GE+E is an Input/Output controller that provides one Gigabit Ethernet and one Ethernet port. It is equipped with a GBIC receptacle for 1000 Mbps operation and an RJ-45 receptacle for 10-Mbps operation.
		
                      
 
		
                       The Cisco 7200-I/O-2FE/E is an I/O controller that provides two autosensing Fast Ethernet ports and is equipped with two RJ-45 receptacles for 10/100 Mbps operation.
		
                      
 
		
                       You can configure the Fast Ethernet port for use at 100-Mbps full-duplex or half-duplex operation (half duplex is the default). The Fast Ethernet port is equipped with either a single MII receptacle or an MII receptacle and an RJ-45 receptacle. To support this new feature, the 
		  media-type interface command has been modified. The 
		  media-type command now supports two options:
		
                      
 
		
                      •  
			  
				100BASE-X 
			 --Specifies an RJ-45 100BASE-X physical connection.
		  
                        

                        • 

                      •  
			  
				mii 
			 --Specifies a media-independent interface.
		  
                        

                        • 

                      
 
		
                       The Gigabit Ethernet interface on the Cisco 7200-I/O-GE+E operates at full duplex and cannot be configured for half-duplex mode.
		
                      
 
		
                       Second-generation Fast Ethernet Interface Processors (FEIP2-DSW-2TX and FEIP2-DSW-2FX) are available on Cisco 7500 series routers and on Cisco 7000 series routers with the 7000 Series Route Switch Processor (RSP7000) and 7000 Series Chassis Interface (RSP7000CI). The FEIP2-DSW is a dual-port, fixed-configuration interface processor that provides two 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet (FE) interfaces. Each interface on the FEIP2-DSW supports both half-duplex and full-duplex.

                      Specifying an Ethernet Encapsulation Method
                      

                      
Currently, there are three common Ethernet encapsulation methods:
                      

                      • 
The standard Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) Ethernet Version 2.0 encapsulation, which uses a 16-bit protocol type code (the default encapsulation method).
                        

                        • 

                      • 
Service access point (SAP) IEEE 802.3 encapsulation, in which the type code becomes the frame length for the IEEE 802.2 LLC encapsulation (destination and source Service Access Points, and a control byte).
                        

                        • 

                      • 
The SNAP method, as specified in RFC 1042, >Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams Over IEEE 802 Networks
, which allows Ethernet protocols to run on IEEE 802.2 media.
                        

                        • 

                      

                      
The encapsulation method that you use depends upon the routing protocol that you are using, the type of Ethernet media connected to the router or access server, and the routing or bridging application that you configure. 
                      

                      
To establish Ethernet encapsulation of IP packets, use one of the following commands in interface configuration mode.

For an example of enabling full-duplex mode on Fast Ethernet, see the Full-Duplex Enablement Operation Example.
                      


                      Caution
                      
      
                      
To prevent system problems, do not configure both FEIP2-DSW-2FX interfaces for full-duplex operation at the same time.
The FEIP2-DSW-2TX supports half-duplex only and should not be configured for full-duplex.

                      Extending the 10BASE-T Capability
                      

                      
On a Cisco 4000 series or Cisco 4500 series routers, you can extend the twisted-pair 10BASE-T capability beyond the standard 100 meters by reducing the squelch
 (signal cutoff time). This feature applies only to the LANCE controller 10BASE-T interfaces. LANCE is the AMD controller chip for the Cisco 4000 and Cisco 4500 Ethernet interface and does not apply to the Fast Ethernet interface.
                      

                      
To reduce squelch, use the first command in the following table in interface configuration mode. You can later restore the squelch by using the second command.

                       You must configure the Fast Ethernet 100BASE-T interface on a Cisco AS5300 so that it can be recognized as a device on the Ethernet LAN. The Fast Ethernet interface supports 10- and 100-Mbps speeds with the 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T routers, hubs, and switches.
		
                      
 
		
                       To configure the interface, use the following commands beginning in privileged EXEC mode.

What to Do Next
                        

		
                         To use the autonegotiation capability (that is, to detect speed and duplex modes automatically), you must set both 
		  speed and 
		  duplex command to 
		  auto. Setting the 
		  speed command to 
		  auto negotiates speed only, and setting 
		  duplex command to 
		  auto negotiates duplex only. The table below describes the performance of the access server for different combinations of the 
		  duplex and 
		  speed command options. The specified 
		  duplex command option plus the specified 
		  speed command option produces the resulting system action.

                        Configuring PA-12E 2FE Port Adapters
                        

                        
The PA-12E/2FE Ethernet switch port adapter provides Cisco 7200 series routers with up to twelve 10-Mbps and two 10/100-Mbps switched Ethernet (10BASE-T) and Fast Ethernet (100BASE-TX) interfaces for an aggregate bandwidth of 435 Mbps, full-duplex. The PA-12E/2FE port adapter supports the Ethernet, IEEE 802.3, and IEEE 802.3u specifications for 10-Mbps and 100-Mbps transmission over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cables.
                        

                        
The PA-12E/2FE port adapter offloads Layer 2 switching from the host CPU by using store-and-forward or cut-through switching technology between interfaces within the same virtual LAN (VLAN) on the PA-12E/2FE port adapter. The PA-12E/2FE port adapter supports up to four VLANs (bridge groups). 
                        


                        Note
                        
The PA-12E/2FE port adapter is a dual-width port adapter, which means it occupies two horizontally aligned port adapter slots when installed in a Cisco 7200 series router. (Single-width port adapters occupy individual port adapter slots in a Cisco 7200 series router.)
                        

                        

                        
All interfaces on the PA-12E/2FE port adapter support autosensing and autonegotiation of the proper transmission mode (half-duplex or full-duplex) with an attached device. The first two PA-12E/2FE interfaces (port 0 and port 1) also support autosensing and autonegotiation of the proper connection speed (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) with an attached device. If an attached device does not support autosensing and autonegotiation of the proper transmission mode, the PA-12E/2FE interfaces attached to the device automatically enter half-duplex mode. Use the show system:running-configcommand to determine if a PA-12E/2FE interface is autosensing and autonegotiating the proper transmission mode with an attached device. Use the full-duplexand the half-duplex commands to change the transmission mode of a PA-12E/2FE interface. After changing the transmission mode, use the show interfacescommand to verify the transmission mode of the interface.
                        


                        Note
                        
If you use the full-duplexand the half-duplex commands to change the transmission mode of the first two PA-12E/2FE interfaces (port 0 and port 1), the transmission speed of the two PA-12E/2FE interfaces automatically defaults to 100-Mbps. The first two PA-12E/2FE interfaces operate only at 10 Mbps when the interfaces are autosensing and autonegotiating the proper connection speed (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) with an attached device.
                        

                        

                        
To configure the PA-12E/2FE port adapter, perform the tasks in the following sections. Each task in the list is identified as either required or optional.
                        


                        Note
                        
If you plan to use a PA-12E/2FE interface to boot from a network (using TFTP), ensure that the interface is configured for a loop-free environment, that an IP address is configured for the interface’s bridge-group virtual interface, and that system boot image 11.2(10)P is installed on your router (use the show version command to view the system boot image of your router). Then, before
 booting from the network server, use the bridge-group bridge-group number spanning-disabled command to disable the Spanning Tree Protocol configured on the interface to keep the TFTP server from timing out and closing the session. For detailed information about booting from a network using TFTP, loading a system image from a network server, and configuring the Spanning Tree Protocol on your Cisco 7200 series router, refer to the PA-12E/2FE Ethernet Switch Port Adapter 
book that accompanies the hardware and to the Cisco IOS Bridging and IBM Networking Configuration Guide.

This section provides instructions for a basic configuration. You might also need to enter other configuration commands depending on the requirements for your system configuration and the protocols that you plan to route on the interface. For complete descriptions of configuration commands and the configuration options available, refer to the other configuration guides and command references in the Cisco IOS documentation set.

                            Configuring Bridge Groups Using the 12E 2FE VLAN Configuration WebTool
                            

                             The 12E/2FE VLAN Configuration WebTool, shown in the figure below, is a web browser-based Java applet that displays configured interfaces and bridge groups for PA-12E/2FE port adapters installed in Cisco routers. With the WebTool you can perform the following tasks: 
	 
                            

                            •  Create and delete bridge groups (also referred to as VLANs) 
		
                              

                              • 

                            •  Add and remove PA-12E/2FE interfaces from bridge groups 
		
                              

                              • 

                            •  Assign colors to bridge groups and PA-12E/2FE interfaces 
		
                              

                              • 

                            •  Administratively shut down (disable) and bring up (enable) PA-12E/2FE interfaces 
		
                              

                              • 

                            •  View the bridge-group status of each PA-12E/2FE interface 
		
                              

                              • 

                            

                             You can access the 12E/2FE VLAN Configuration WebTool from the home page of your router. For complete procedures on how to use the VLAN Configuration WebTool, refer to the 
		PA-12E/2FE Ethernet Switch Port Adapter 
		 book that accompanies the hardware. 
	 
                            

                             All Cisco routers that run Cisco IOS Release 11.0 or later have a home page. All Cisco router home pages are password protected. Contact your network administrator if you do not have the name or password for your Cisco 7200 series router. 
	 
                            

                             If your router has an installed PA-12E/2FE port adapter, the 12E/2FE VLAN Configuration WebTool shown in the figure above can be accessed from the home page of the router using a Java-enabled web browser.

The 100VG-AnyLAN port adapter (PA-100VG) is available on Cisco 7200 series routers and on Cisco 7500 series routers. 
                            

      
                            
The PA-100VG provides a single interface compatible with and specified by IEEE 802.12 to support 100 Mbps over Category 3 or Category 5 UTP cable with RJ-45 terminators. The PA-100VG supports 802.3 Ethernet packets and can be monitored with the IEEE 802.12 Interface MIB. 
                            

      
                            
To configure the PA-100VG port adapter, use the following commands beginning in global configuration mode.

Use the show interfaces {ethernet | fastethernet | gigabitethernet} command to verify that the interface and line protocol are in the correct state (up) and that the transmission mode is configured on the interface. You can configure full, half, or auto transmission mode for Ethernet and Fast Ethernet interfaces. You can configure forced transmission mode for Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. The following is sample output from the show interfaces gigabitethernet command.

                                    Configuring an FDDI Interface
                                    

                                     The FDDI is an ANSI-defined standard for a timed 100-Mbps token passing over a fiber-optic cable. FDDI is not supported on access servers. 
	 
                                    

                                     A FDDI network consists of two counter-rotating, token-passing fiber-optic rings. On most networks, the primary ring is used for data communication and the secondary ring is used as a hot standby. The FDDI standard sets a total fiber length of 200 kilometers. (The maximum circumference of the FDDI network is only half the specified kilometers because of the wrapping or looping back of the signal that occurs during fault isolation.) 
	 
                                    

                                     The FDDI standard allows a maximum of 500 stations with a maximum distance of 2 kilometers between active stations, when interconnecting them with multimode fiber, or a maximum distance of 10 kilometers between them when interconnected via single mode fiber, both of which are supported by FDDI interface controllers. The FDDI frame can contain a minimum of 17 bytes and a maximum of 4500 bytes. Cisco FDDI implementation supports Station Management (SMT) Version 7.3 of the X3T9.5 FDDI specification, offering a single MAC dual-attach interface that supports fault-recovery methods of dual attachment stations (DASs). The mid-range platforms also support single attachment stations (SASs).

                                    Particle-Based Switching of Source-Route Bridge Packets on Cisco 7200 Series Routers
                                    

                                    
SRB is supported over FDDI. Particle-based switching is supported for SRB packets (over FDDI and Token Ring) by default.
                                    

                                    
Particle-based switching adds scatter-gather capability to SRB to improve performance. Particles represent a communications data packet as a collection of noncontiguous buffers. The traditional Cisco IOS packet has a packet type control structure and a single contiguous data buffer. A particle packet has the same packet type control structure, but also maintains a queue of particle type structures, each of which manages its own block. 
                                    

                                    
The scatter-gather architecture used by particle-based switching provides the following advantages:
                                    

                                    • 
Allows drivers to use memory more efficiently (especially when using media that has a large maximum transmission unit [MTU]). For example, Token Ring buffers could be 512 bytes rather than 16 KB.
                                      

                                      • 

                                    • 
Allows concurrent use of the same region of memory. For example, on IP multicast a single packet is received and sent out on multiple interfaces simultaneously.
                                      

                                      • 

                                    • 
Allows insertion or deletion of memory at any location in a packet (not just at the beginning or end).
                                      

                                      •

                                    Using Connection Management Information
                                    

                                    
Connection management (CMT) is a FDDI process that handles the transition of the ring through its various states (off, on, active, connect, and so on) as defined by the X3T9.5 specification. The FIP (FDDI Interface Processor) provides CMT functions in microcode. 
                                    

                                    
A partial sample output of the show interfaces fddi command follows, along with an explanation of how to interpret the CMT information in the output.
                                    

                                    Phy-A state is active, neighbor is B, cmt signal bits 08/20C, status ALS
Phy-B state is active, neighbor is A, cmt signal bits 20C/08, status ILS
CFM is thru A, token rotation 5000 usec, ring operational 0:01:42
Upstream neighbor 0800.2008.C52E, downstream neighbor 0800.2008.C52E

                                    

                                    
The show interfaces fddi example shows that Physical A (Phy-A) completed CMT with its neighbor. The state is active, and the display indicates a Physical B-type neighbor.
                                    

                                    
The sample output indicates CMT signal bits 08/20C for Phy-A. The transmit signal bits are 08. Looking at the pulse code modulation (PCM) state machine, 08 indicates that the port type is A, that the port compatibility is set, and that the LCT duration requested is short. The receive signal bits are 20C, that indicate that the neighbor type is B, that port compatibility is set, that there is a MAC on the port output, and so on.
                                    

                                    
The neighbor is determined from the received signal bits, as follows:

Value Received
                                    

                                                		

              
                                    
   1   0   0   0   0   0   1   1   0   0
                                    

                                                		

                                    
                                    

                                    

                                    

                                    
Interpreting the bits in the diagram above, the received value equals 0x20C. Bit positions 1 and 2 (0 1) indicate a Physical B-type connection.
                                    

                                    
The transition states displayed indicate that the CMT process is running and actively trying to establish a connection to the remote physical connection. The CMT process requires state transition with different signals being transmitted and received before moving on to the state ahead as indicated in the PCM state machine. The 10 bits of CMT information are transmitted and received in the Signal State. The NEXT state is used to separate the signaling performed in the Signal State. Therefore, in the preceding sample output, the NEXT state was entered 11 times.
                                    


                                    Note
                                    
The display line showing transition states is not generated if the FDDI interface has been shut down, or if the cmt disconnect command has been issued, or if the fddi if-cmt command has been issued. (The fddi if-cmt command applies to the Cisco 7500 series routers only.)
                                    

                                    

                                    
The CFM state is through A in the sample output, which means the Phy-A of this interface has successfully completed CMT with the Phy-B of the neighbor and Phy-B of this interface has successfully completed CMT with the Phy-A of the neighbor.
                                    

                                    
The display (or nondisplay) of the upstream and downstream neighbor does not affect the ability to route data. Because the upstream neighbor is also its downstream neighbor in the sample, there are only two stations in the ring: the network server and the router at address 0800.2008.C52E.

By default, Cisco FDDI uses the SNAP encapsulation format defined in RFC 1042. It is not necessary to define an encapsulation method for this interface when using the FIP.
                                    

                                    
FIP fully supports transparent and translational bridging for the following configurations:

Enabling FDDI bridging encapsulation places the FIP into encapsulation mode when doing bridging. In transparent mode, the FIP interoperates with earlier versions of encapsulating interfaces when performing bridging functions on the same ring. When using the FIP, you can specify the encapsulation method by using the following command in interface configuration mode.

When you are doing translational bridging, use routing for routable protocols and use translational bridging for the rest, such as local-area transport (LAT).
                                    


                                    Note
                                    
Bridging between dissimilar media presents several problems that can prevent communications. These problems include bit-order translation (using MAC addresses as data), maximum transfer unit (MTU) differences, frame status differences, and multicast address usage. Some or all of these problems might be present in a multimedia-bridged LAN and might prevent communication. These problems are most prevalent in networks that bridge between Token Ring and Ethernet networks or between Token Ring and FDDI because of the different ways that Token Ring is implemented by the end nodes.
                                    

                                    

                                    
We are currently aware of problems with the following protocols when bridged between Token Ring and other media: AppleTalk, DECnet, IP, Novell IPX, Phase IV, VINES, and XNS. Further, the following protocols might have problems when bridged between FDDI and other media: Novell IPX and XNS. We recommend that these protocols be routed whenever possible.

The FDDI standard restricts the allowed time to greater than 4000 microseconds and less than 165,000 microseconds. As defined in the X3T9.5 specification, the value remaining in the token rotation timer (TRT) is loaded into the token holding timer (THT). Combining the values of these two timers provides the means to determine the amount of bandwidth available for subsequent transmissions.

You can control whether the CMT onboard functions are on or off. The FIP provides CMT functions in microcode. These functions are separate from those provided on the processor card and are accessed through EXEC commands.
                                    

                                    
The default is for the FIP CMT functions to be on. A typical reason to disable these functions is when you work with new FDDI equipment and have problems bringing up the ring. If you disable the CMT microcode, the following actions occur:
                                    

                                    • 
The FIP CMT microcode is disabled.
                                      

                                      • 

                                    • 
The main system code performs the CMT function while debugging output is generated.
                                      

                                      • 

                                    

                                    
To disable the CMT microcode, use the following command in interface configuration mode.

                                    Setting FDDI Frames per Token Limit
                                    

                                    
      
                                    
The FDDI interface is able to transmit multiple frames per token on a Cisco 4000, a Cisco 4500, and a Cisco 4700 series router, instead of transmitting only a single frame at a time. You can specify the maximum number of frames to be transmitted with each token capture. This significantly improves your throughput when you have heavy or very bursty traffic.
                                    

      
                                    
To configure the FDDI interface to transmit a maximum number of frames per token capture, use the following commands beginning in privileged EXEC mode.

You can set the maximum number of unprocessed FDDI Station Management (SMT) frames that will be held for processing. Setting this number is useful if the router that you are configuring gets bursts of messages that arrive faster than the router can process. To set the number of frames, use the following command in global configuration mode.

Cisco 2500 series includes routers that have hub functionality for an Ethernet interface. The hub is a multiport repeater. The advantage of an Ethernet interface over a hub is that the hub provides a star-wiring physical network configuration while the Ethernet interface provides 10BASE-T physical network configuration. The router models with hub ports and their configurations are as follows:

On Ethernet hub ports only, the hub ports can invert, or correct, the polarity of the received data if the port detects that the received data packet waveform polarity is reversed because of a wiring error. This receive circuitry polarity correction allows the hub to repeat subsequent packets with correct polarity. When enabled, this function is executed once after reset of a link fail state.
                                        

                                        
Automatic receiver polarity reversal is enabled by default. To disable this feature on a per-port basis, use the following command in hub configuration mode.

Enables automatic receiver polarity reversal.
                                        

                                                    		

                                        
                                        

                                        

                                        

                                        

                                        

                                        Disabling or Enabling the Link Test Function
                                        

                                        
The link test function applies to Ethernet hub ports only. The Ethernet ports implement the link test function as specified in the 802.3 10BASE-T standard. The hub ports will transmit link test pulses to any attached twisted pair device if the port has been inactive for more than 8 to 17 milliseconds.
                                        

                                        
If a hub port does not receive any data packets or link test pulses for more than 65 to 132 milliseconds and the link test function is enabled for that port, that port enters link fail state and cannot transmit or receive. The hub port is enabled again when it receives four consecutive link test pulses or a data packet.
                                        

                                        
The link test function is enabled by default. To allow the hub to interoperate with 10BASE-T twisted-pair networks that do not implement the link test function, the link test receive function of the hub can be disabled on a per-port basis. To do so, use the following command in hub configuration mode.

On an Ethernet hub port only, you can configure a security measure such that the port accepts packets only from a specific MAC address. For example, suppose your workstation is connected to port 3 on a hub, and source address control is enabled on port 3. Your workstation has access to the network because the hub accepts any packet from port 3 with the MAC address of the workstation. Any packets that arrive with a different MAC address cause the port to be disabled. The port is enabled again after 1 minute, and the MAC address of incoming packets is checked again.
                                        

                                        
To enable source address control on a per-port basis, use the following command in hub configuration mode.

                                           You may need to set up a host receiver for this trap type (snmp-server host) for a Network Management System (NMS) to receive this trap type. The default is no trap. For an example of configuring a SNMP trap for an Ethernet hub port, see the 
		  Hub Configuration Examples.
		
                                          
 
	 
                                          

                                          

                                          

                                          Configuring a Token Ring Interface
                                          

                                          
Cisco supports various Token Ring interfaces. Refer to the Cisco Product Catalog
 for information about platform and hardware compatibility.
                                          

                                          
The Token Ring interface supports both routing (Layer 3 switching) and source-route bridging (Layer 2 switching) on a per-protocol basis. For example, IP traffic could be routed, while SNA traffic is bridged. Routing features enhance source-route bridges
                                          

                                          
The Token Ring MIB variables support the specification in RFC 1231, IEEE 802.5 Token Ring MIB
. The mandatory Interface Table and Statistics Table are implemented, but the optional Timer Table of the Token Ring MIB is not. The Token Ring MIB has been implemented for the Token Ring Interface Processor (TRIP).
                                          

                                          
Use the show interfaces, show controllers token, and show controllers cbusEXEC commands to display the Token Ring numbers. These commands provide a report for each ring that Cisco IOS software supports.
                                          


                                          Note
                                          
If the system receives an indication of a cabling problem from a Token Ring interface, it puts that interface into a reset state and does not attempt to restart it. It functions this way because periodic attempts to restart the Token Ring interface drastically affect the stability of routing tables. Once you have plugged the cable into the MAU (media attachment unit) again, restart the interface by using the clear interface tokenring numbercommand, where the number argument is the interface number.
                                          

                                          

                                          
By default, the Token Ring interface uses the SNAP encapsulation format defined in RFC 1042. It is not necessary to define an encapsulation method for this interface.
                                          

                                          

                                          Particle-Based Switching of Source-Route Bridge Packets on Cisco 7200 Series Routers
                                          

                                          
Particle-based switching is supported for SRB packets (over FDDI and Token Ring) by default.
                                          

                                          
Particle-based switching adds scatter-gather capability to SRB to improve performance. Particles represent a communications data packet as a collection of noncontiguous buffers. The traditional Cisco IOS packet has a packet type control structure and a single contiguous data buffer. A particle packet has the same packet type control structure, but it also maintains a queue of particle type structures, each of which manages its own block. 
                                          

                                          
The scatter-gather architecture used by particle-based switching provides the following advantages:
                                          

                                          • 
Allows drivers to use memory more efficiently (especially when using media that has a large maximum transmission unit [MTU]). For example, Token Ring buffers could be 512 bytes rather than 16 KB.
                                            

                                            • 

                                          • 
Allows concurrent use of the same region of memory. For example, on IP multicast a single packet is received and sent out on multiple interfaces simultaneously.
                                            

                                            • 

                                          • 
Allows insertion or deletion of memory at any location in a packet (not just at the beginning or end).
                                            

                                            •

                                          Dedicated Token Ring Port Adapter
                                          

                                          
The Dedicated Token Ring port adapter (PA-4R-DTR) is available on Cisco 7500 series routers, Cisco 7200 series routers, and Cisco 7000 series routers with the 7000 Series Route Switch Processor (RSP7000) and 7000 Series Chassis Interface (RSP7000CI). 
                                          

                                          
The PA-4R-DTR provides up to four IBM Token Ring or IEEE 802.5 Token Ring interfaces. Each Token Ring interface can be set for 4-Mbps or 16-Mbps half-duplex or full-duplex operation and can operate as a standard Token Ring station or as a concentrator port. The default for all interfaces is Token Ring station mode with half-duplex 16-Mbps operation. The PA-4R-DTR connects over Type 1 lobe or Type 3 lobe cables, with each interface providing an RJ-45 receptacle.

Cisco Token Ring interfaces support early token release, a method whereby the interface releases the token back onto the ring immediately after transmitting rather than waiting for the frame to return. This feature can help to increase the total bandwidth of the Token Ring. To configure the interface for early token release, use the following command in interface configuration mode.

The following is an example of a configuration for the PA-12E/2FE port adapter interface. Bridge groups 10, 20, and 30 use IEEE Spanning Tree Protocol. The first four interfaces of a PA-12E/2EF port adapter in port adapter slot 3 use bridge groups 10 and 20. Each interface is assigned to a bridge group, and the shutdown state is set to up. The PA-12E/2FE port adapter supports store-and-forward or cut-through switching technology between interfaces within the same bridge group; store-and-forward is the default. In the following example, the cut-throughcommand is used to configure each interface for cut-through switching of received and transmitted data:

                                          Fast EtherChannel Configuration Examples
                                          

                                           The figure below shows four point-to-point Fast Ethernet interfaces that are aggregated into a single Fast EtherChannel interface. 
	 
                                          

                                           The configuration file that illustrates this topology follows. 
	 
                                          

                                           The following is an example of how to create a Fast EtherChannel (port-channel interface) with four Fast Ethernet interfaces. In this example, ISL is enabled on the Fast EtherChannel, and an IP address is assigned to the subinterface. 
	 
                                          

                                          Router# configure terminal

                                           The following is a partial example of a configuration file. The MAC address is automatically added to the Fast Ethernet interface when the interfaces are added to the Fast EtherChannel. 
	 
                                          


                                          Note
                                           If you do not assign a static MAC address on the port-channel interface, the Cisco IOS software automatically assigns a MAC address. If you assign a static MAC address and then later remove it, the Cisco IOS software automatically assigns a MAC address.

The following example configures port 1 on hub 0 of Ethernet interface 0:
                                          

                                          hub ethernet 0 1
 no shutdown

                                          

                                          
The following example configures ports 1 through 8 on hub 0 of Ethernet interface 0:
                                          

                                          hub ethernet 0 1 8

The following example shuts down ports 3 through 5 on hub 0:
                                          

                                          hub ethernet 0 3 5
 shutdown

                                          

                                          
The following example shuts down port 3 on hub 0:
                                          

                                          hub ethernet 0 3
 shutdown
                                          

                                          

                                          

                                          SNMP Illegal Address Trap Enablement for Hub Port Example
                                          

                                          
The following example specifies the gateway IP address and enables an SNMP trap to be issued to the host 172.16.40.51 when a MAC address violation is detected on hub ports 2, 3, or 4. It specifies that Ethernet interface 0 is the source for all traps on the router. The community string is defined as the string public and the read/write parameter is set.
