fhrp version vrrp v3

To enable Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol version 3 (VRRPv3) and Virtual Router Redundancy Service (VRRS) configuration on a device, use the fhrp version vrrp v3 command in global configuration mode. To disable the ability to configure VRRPv3 and VRRS on a device, use the no form of this command.

fhrp version vrrp v3

no fhrp version vrrp v3

Syntax Description

This command has no keywords or arguments.

Command Default

VRRPv3 and VRRS configuration on a device is not enabled.

Command Modes

Global configuration (config)

Usage Guidelines

When VRRPv3 is in use, VRRP version 2 (VRRPv2) is unavailable.

Examples

In the following example, a tracking process is configured to track the state of an IPv6 object using a VRRPv3 group. VRRP on GigabitEthernet interface 0/0/0 then registers with the tracking process to be informed of any changes to the IPv6 object on the VRRPv3 group. If the IPv6 object state on serial interface VRRPv3 goes down, then the priority of the VRRP group is reduced by 20:


Device(config)# fhrp version vrrp v3
Device(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0
Device(config-if)# vrrp 1 address-family ipv6
Device(config-if-vrrp)# track 1 decrement 20

Related Commands


Command	Description
track (VRRP)	Enables an object to be tracked using a VRRPv3 group.

glbp authentication

To configure an authentication string for the Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP), use the glbp authentication command in interface configuration mode. To disable authentication, use the no form of this command.

glbp group-numberauthentication {text string | md5 {key-string [0 | 7] key | key-chain name-of-chain}}

no glbp group-number authentication {text string | md5 {key-string [0 | 7] key | key-chain name-of-chain}}

Syntax Description


`group-number`	GLBP group number in the range from 0 to 1023.
text `string`	Specifies an authentication string. The number of characters in the command plus the text string must not exceed 255 characters.
md5	Message Digest 5 (MD5) authentication.
key-string `key`	Specifies the secret key for MD5 authentication. The key string cannot exceed 100 characters in length. We recommend using at least 16 characters.
0	(Optional) Unencrypted key. If no prefix is specified, the key is unencrypted.
7	(Optional) Encrypted key.
key-chain `name-of-chain`	Identifies a group of authentication keys.

Command Default

No authentication of GLBP messages occurs.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Usage Guidelines

The same authentication method must be configured on all the devices that are configured to be members of the same GLBP group, to ensure interoperation. A device will ignore all GLBP messages that contain the wrong authentication information.

If password encryption is configured with the service password-encryption command, the software saves the key string in the configuration as encrypted text.

Examples

The following example configures stringxyz as the authentication string required to allow GLBP devices in group 10 to interoperate:


Device(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
Device(config-if)# glbp 10 authentication text stringxyz

In the following example, GLBP queries the key chain “AuthenticateGLBP” to obtain the current live key and key ID for the specified key chain:


Device(config)# key chain AuthenticateGLBP
Device(config-keychain)# key 1
Device(config-keychain-key)# key-string ThisIsASecretKey
Device(config-keychain-key)# exit
Device(config-keychain)# exit
Device(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
Device(config-if)# ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
Device(config-if)# glbp 2 authentication md5 key-chain AuthenticateGLBP

glbp ip

To activate the Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP), use the glbp ip command in interface configuration mode. To disable GLBP, use the no form of this command.

glbp group ip [ip-address [secondary]]

no glbp group ip [ip-address [secondary]]

Syntax Description


`group`	GLBP group number in the range from 0 to 1023.
`ip-address`	(Optional) Virtual IP address for the GLBP group. The IP address must be in the same subnet as the interface IP address.
secondary	(Optional) Indicates that the IP address is a secondary GLBP virtual address.

Command Default

GLBP is disabled by default.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE Release 16.2.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The glbp ip command activates GLBP on the configured interface. If an IP address is specified, that address is used as the designated virtual IP address for the GLBP group. If no IP address is specified, the designated address is learned from another device configured to be in the same GLBP group. For GLBP to elect an active virtual gateway (AVG), at least one device on the cable must have been configured with the designated address. A device must be configured with, or have learned, the virtual IP address of the GLBP group before assuming the role of a GLBP gateway or forwarder. Configuring the designated address on the AVG always overrides a designated address that is in use.

When the glbp ip command is enabled on an interface, the handling of proxy Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) requests is changed (unless proxy ARP was disabled). ARP requests are sent by hosts to map an IP address to a MAC address. The GLBP gateway intercepts the ARP requests and replies to the ARP on behalf of the connected nodes. If a forwarder in the GLBP group is active, proxy ARP requests are answered using the MAC address of the first active forwarder in the group. If no forwarder is active, proxy ARP responses are suppressed.

Examples

The following example activates GLBP for group 10 on GigabitEthernet interface 1/0/1. The virtual IP address to be used by the GLBP group is set to 10.21.8.10.


Device(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
Device(config-if)# ip address 10.21.8.32 255.255.255.0
Device(config-if)# glbp 10 ip 10.21.8.10

Command	Description
show glbp	Displays GLBP information.

glbp load-balancing

To specify the load-balancing method used by the active virtual gateway (AVG) of the Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP), use the glbp load-balancing command in interface configuration mode. To disable load balancing, use the no form of this command.

glbp group load-balancing [host-dependent | round-robin | weighted]

no glbp group load-balancing

Syntax Description


`group`	GLBP group number in the range from 0 to 1023.
host-dependent	(Optional) Specifies a load balancing method based on the MAC address of a host where the same forwarder is always used for a particular host while the number of GLBP group members remains unchanged.
round-robin	(Optional) Specifies a load balancing method where each virtual forwarder in turn is included in address resolution replies for the virtual IP address. This method is the default.
weighted	(Optional) Specifies a load balancing method that is dependent on the weighting value advertised by the gateway.

Command Default

The round-robin method is the default.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE Release 16.2.1	This command was introduced..

Usage Guidelines

Use the host-dependent method of GLBP load balancing when you need each host to always use the same device. Use the weighted method of GLBP load balancing when you need unequal load balancing because devices in the GLBP group have different forwarding capacities.

Examples

The following example shows the host-dependent load-balancing method being configured for the AVG of the GLBP group 10:


Device(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
Device(config-if)# glbp 10 ip 10.21.8.10
Device(config-if)# glbp 10 load-balancing host-dependent

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to control which virtual gateway becomes the active virtual gateway (AVG). After the priorities of several different virtual gateways are compared, the gateway with the numerically higher priority is elected as the AVG. If two virtual gateways have equal priority, the gateway with the higher IP address is selected.

Examples

The following example shows a virtual gateway being configured with a priority of 254:


Device(config-if)# glbp 10 priority 254

Related Commands


Command	Description

glbp timers

To configure the time between hello packets sent by the Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP) gateway and the time that the virtual gateway and virtual forwarder information is considered valid, use the glbp timers command in interface configuration mode. To restore the timers to their default values, use the no form of this command.

glbp group timers { hellotime{ holdtime|msec holdtime} |msec{holdtime|msec holdtime} |redirect time-interval-to-redirect|timeout}

no glbp group timers { hellotime{ holdtime|msec holdtime} |msec{holdtime|msec holdtime} |redirect time-interval-to-redirect|timeout}

Syntax Description

group

GLBP group number in the range from 0 to 1023.

msec

(Optional) Specifies that the following (hellotime or holdtime) argument value will be expressed in milliseconds rather than seconds.

hellotime

Hello interval. The default is 3 seconds (3000 milliseconds).

holdtime

Time before the virtual gateway and virtual forwarder information contained in the hello packet is considered invalid. The default is 10 seconds (10,000 milliseconds).

redirect

Specifies time interval during which the active virtual gateway (AVG) for a Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP) group continues to redirect clients to a secondary active virtual forwarder (AVF) and time-out values for failed forwarders.

time-interval-to-redirect

The redirect timer interval in the range from 0 to 3600 seconds. The default is 600 seconds (10 minutes).

Note

The zero value for the time-interval-to-redirect argument cannot be removed from the range of acceptable values because preexisting configurations of Cisco IOS software already using the zero value could be negatively affected during an upgrade. However, be advised that a zero setting is not recommended andtime-interval-to-redirect , if used, results in a redirect timer that never expires. If the redirect timer does not expire, then when a device fails, new hosts continue to be assigned to the failed device instead of being redirected to the backup.

timeout

The time interval, in the range from 600 to 64,800 seconds, before the secondary virtual forwarder becomes unavailable. The default is 14,400 seconds (4 hours).

Command Default

GLBP timers are set to their default values.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Devices on which timer values are not configured can learn timer values from the active virtual gateway (AVG). The timers configured on the AVG always override any other timer settings. All devices in a GLBP group should use the same timer values. If a GLBP gateway sends a hello message, the information should be considered valid for one holdtime. Normally, holdtime is greater than three times the value of hello time, (holdtime > 3 * hellotime ). The range of values for holdtime force the holdtime to be greater than the hello time.

Examples

The following example shows the GLBP group 10 on GigabitEthernet interface 1/0/1 timers being configured for an interval of 5 seconds between hello packets, and the time after which virtual gateway and virtual forwarder information is considered to be invalid to 18 seconds:


Device(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
Device(config-if)# glbp 10 ip 
Device(config-if)# glbp 10 timers 5 18

Related Commands


Command	Description
glbp ip	Activates GLBP.
show glbp	Displays GLBP information.

glbp weighting

To specify the initial weighting value of the Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP) gateway, use the glbp weighting command in interface configuration mode. To restore the default values, use the no form of this command.

glbp group weighting maximum [lower lower] [upper upper]

no glbp group weighting

Syntax Description


`group`	GLBP group number in the range from 0 to 1023.
`maximum`	Maximum weighting value in the range from 1 to 254. Default value is 100.
lower `lower`	(Optional) Specifies a lower weighting value in the range from 1 to the specified maximum weighting value. Default value is 1.
upper `upper`	(Optional) Specifies an upper weighting value in the range from the lower weighting to the maximum weighting value. The default value is the specified maximum weighting value.

Command Default

The default gateway weighting value is 100 and the default lower weighting value is 1.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.1	This command was introduced..

Usage Guidelines

The weighting value of a virtual gateway is a measure of the forwarding capacity of the gateway. If a tracked interface on the device fails, the weighting value of the device may fall from the maximum value to below the lower threshold, causing the device to give up its role as a virtual forwarder. When the weighting value of the device rises above the upper threshold, the device can resume its active virtual forwarder role.

Use the glbp weighting track and track commands to configure parameters for an interface to be tracked. If an interface on a device goes down, the weighting for the device can be reduced by a specified value.

Examples

The following example shows the weighting of the gateway for GLBP group 10 being set to a maximum of 110 with a lower weighting limit of 95 and an upper weighting limit of 105:


Device(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
Device(config-if)# ip address 10.21.8.32 255.255.255.0
Device(config-if)# glbp 10 weighting 110 lower 95 upper 105

Related Commands


Command	Description
glbp weighting track	Specifies an object to be tracked that affects the weighting of a GLBP gateway.
track	Configures an interface to be tracked.

glbp weighting track

To specify a tracking object where the Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP) weighting changes based on the availability of the object being tracked, use the glbp weighting track command in interface configuration mode. To remove the tracking, use the no form of this command.

glbp group weighting track object-number [decrement value]

no glbp group weighting track object-number [decrement value]

Syntax Description


`group`	GLBP group number in the range from 0 to 1023.
`object-number`	Object number representing an item to be tracked. The valid range is 1 to 1000. Use the track command to configure the tracked object.
decrement `value`	(Optional) Specifies an amount by which the GLBP weighting for the device is decremented (or incremented) when the interface goes down (or comes back up). The value range is from 1 to 254, with a default value of 10.

Command Default

Objects are not tracked for GLBP weighting changes.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.1	This command was introduced..

Usage Guidelines

This command ties the weighting of the GLBP gateway to the availability of its interfaces. It is useful for tracking interfaces that are not configured for GLBP.

When a tracked interface goes down, the GLBP gateway weighting decreases by 10. If an interface is not tracked, its state changes do not affect the GLBP gateway weighting. For each GLBP group, you can configure a separate list of interfaces to be tracked.

The optional value argument specifies by how much to decrement the GLBP gateway weighting when a tracked interface goes down. When the tracked interface comes back up, the weighting is incremented by the same amount.

When multiple tracked interfaces are down, the configured weighting decrements are cumulative.

Use the track command to configure each interface to be tracked.

A maximum of 1000 objects can be tracked. Although 1000 tracked objects can be configured, each tracked object uses CPU resources. The amount of available CPU resources on a device is dependent upon variables such as traffic load and how other protocols are configured and run. The ability to use 1000 tracked objects is dependent upon the available CPU. Testing should be conducted on site to ensure that the service works under the specific site traffic conditions.

Examples

In the following example, GigabitEthernet interface 1/0/1 tracks two interfaces represented by the numbers 1 and 2. If interface 1 goes down, the GLBP gateway weighting decreases by the default value of 10. If interface 2 goes down, the GLBP gateway weighting decreases by 5.


Device(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
Device(config-if)# ip address 10.21.8.32 255.255.255.0
Device(config-if)# glbp 10 weighting track 1
Device(config-if)# glbp 10 weighting track 2 decrement 5

Usage Guidelines

Note

Prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T, the ip address dhcp command could be used only on Ethernet interfaces.

The ip address dhcp command allows any interface to dynamically learn its IP address by using the DHCP protocol. It is especially useful on Ethernet interfaces that dynamically connect to an Internet service provider (ISP). Once assigned a dynamic address, the interface can be used with the Port Address Translation (PAT) of Cisco IOS Network Address Translation (NAT) to provide Internet access to a privately addressed network attached to the device.

The ip address dhcp command also works with ATM point-to-point interfaces and will accept any encapsulation type. However, for ATM multipoint interfaces you must specify Inverse ARP via the protocol ip inarp interface configuration command and use only the aa15snap encapsulation type.

Some ISPs require that the DHCPDISCOVER message have a specific hostname and client identifier that is the MAC address of the interface. The most typical usage of the ip address dhcp client-id interface-type number hostname hostname command is when interface-type is the Ethernet interface where the command is configured and interface-type number is the hostname provided by the ISP.

A client identifier (DHCP option 61) can be a hexadecimal or an ASCII value. By default, the client identifier is an ASCII value. The client-id interface-type number option overrides the default and forces the use of the hexadecimal MAC address of the named interface.

Note

Between Cisco IOS Releases 12.1(3)T and 12.2(3), the client-id optional keyword allows the change of the fixed ASCII value for the client identifier. After Release 12.2(3), the optional client-id keyword forces the use of the hexadecimal MAC address of the named interface as the client identifier.

If a Cisco device is configured to obtain its IP address from a DHCP server, it sends a DHCPDISCOVER message to provide information about itself to the DHCP server on the network.

If you use the ip address dhcp command with or without any of the optional keywords, the DHCP option 12 field (hostname option) is included in the DISCOVER message. By default, the hostname specified in option 12 will be the globally configured hostname of the device. However, you can use the ip address dhcp hostname hostname command to place a different name in the DHCP option 12 field than the globally configured hostname of the device.

The no ip address dhcp command removes any IP address that was acquired, thus sending a DHCPRELEASE message.

You might need to experiment with different configurations to determine the one required by your DHCP server. The table below shows the possible configuration methods and the information placed in the DISCOVER message for each method.

Table 1. Configuration Method and Resulting Contents of the DISCOVER Message
Configuration Method	Contents of DISCOVER Messages
ip address dhcp	The DISCOVER message contains “cisco- `mac-address` -Eth1” in the client ID field. The `mac-address` is the MAC address of the Ethernet 1 interface and contains the default hostname of the device in the option 12 field.
ip address dhcp hostname `hostname`	The DISCOVER message contains “cisco- `mac-address` -Eth1” in the client ID field. The `mac-address` is the MAC address of the Ethernet 1 interface, and contains `hostname` in the option 12 field.
ip address dhcp client-id ethernet 1	The DISCOVER message contains the MAC address of the Ethernet 1 interface in the client ID field and contains the default hostname of the device in the option 12 field.
ip address dhcp client-id ethernet 1 hostname `hostname`	The DISCOVER message contains the MAC address of the Ethernet 1 interface in the client ID field and contains `hostname` in the option 12 field.

Examples

In the examples that follow, the command ip address dhcp is entered for Ethernet interface 1. The DISCOVER message sent by a device configured as shown in the following example would contain “cisco- mac-address -Eth1” in the client-ID field, and the value abc in the option 12 field.


hostname abc
!
interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
 ip address dhcp

The DISCOVER message sent by a device configured as shown in the following example would contain “cisco- mac-address -Eth1” in the client-ID field, and the value def in the option 12 field.


hostname abc
!
interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
 ip address dhcp hostname def

The DISCOVER message sent by a device configured as shown in the following example would contain the MAC address of Ethernet interface 1 in the client-id field, and the value abc in the option 12 field.


hostname abc
!
interface Ethernet 1
 ip address dhcp client-id GigabitEthernet 1/0/1

The DISCOVER message sent by a device configured as shown in the following example would contain the MAC address of Ethernet interface 1 in the client-id field, and the value def in the option 12 field.


hostname abc
!
interface Ethernet 1
 ip address dhcp client-id GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 hostname def

(Optional) Name of the VRF table. The vrf-name argument specifies the VRF name of the ingress interface.

Command Default

No IP address is defined for the interface.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE Release 3.2SE	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

An interface can have one primary IP address and multiple secondary IP addresses. Packets generated by the Cisco IOS software always use the primary IP address. Therefore, all devices and access servers on a segment should share the same primary network number.

Hosts can determine subnet masks using the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) mask request message. Devices respond to this request with an ICMP mask reply message.

You can disable IP processing on a particular interface by removing its IP address with the no ip address command. If the software detects another host using one of its IP addresses, it will print an error message on the console.

The optional secondary keyword allows you to specify an unlimited number of secondary addresses. Secondary addresses are treated like primary addresses, except the system never generates datagrams other than routing updates with secondary source addresses. IP broadcasts and Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) requests are handled properly, as are interface routes in the IP routing table.

Secondary IP addresses can be used in a variety of situations. The following are the most common applications:

There may not be enough host addresses for a particular network segment. For example, your subnetting allows up to 254 hosts per logical subnet, but on one physical subnet you need 300 host addresses. Using secondary IP addresses on the devices or access servers allows you to have two logical subnets using one physical subnet.
Many older networks were built using Level 2 bridges. The judicious use of secondary addresses can aid in the transition to a subnetted, device-based network. Devices on an older, bridged segment can be easily made aware that many subnets are on that segment.
Two subnets of a single network might otherwise be separated by another network. This situation is not permitted when subnets are in use. In these instances, the first network is extended , or layered on top of the second network using secondary addresses.

Note

If any device on a network segment uses a secondary address, all other devices on that same segment must also use a secondary address from the same network or subnet. Inconsistent use of secondary addresses on a network segment can very quickly cause routing loops.
When you are routing using the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) algorithm, ensure that all secondary addresses of an interface fall into the same OSPF area as the primary addresses.
If you configure a secondary IP address, you must disable sending ICMP redirect messages by entering the no ip redirects command, to avoid high CPU utilization.

To transparently bridge IP on an interface, you must perform the following two tasks:

Disable IP routing (specify the no ip routing command).
Add the interface to a bridge group, see the bridge-group command.

To concurrently route and transparently bridge IP on an interface, see the bridge crb command.

Examples

In the following example, 192.108.1.27 is the primary address and 192.31.7.17 is the secondary address for GigabitEthernet interface 1/0/1:


interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
 ip address 192.108.1.27 255.255.255.0
 ip address 192.31.7.17 255.255.255.0 secondary

To enable the HTTP server on your IP or IPv6 system, including the Cisco web browser user interface, enter the ip http server command in global configuration mode. To disable the HTTP server, use the no form of this command..

ip http server

no ip http server

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

The HTTP server uses the standard port 80 by default.

HTTP/TCP port 8090 is open by default.

Command Modes

Global configuration (config)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE 3.2SE	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The command enables both IPv4 and IPv6 access to the HTTP server. However, an access list configured with the ip http access-class command is applied only to IPv4 traffic. IPv6 traffic filtering is not supported.

Caution

The standard HTTP server and the secure HTTP (HTTPS) server can run on a system at the same time. If you enable the HTTPS server using the ip http secure-server command, disable the standard HTTP server using the no ip http server command to ensure that secure data cannot be accessed through the standard HTTP connection.

To close HTTP/TCP port 8090, you must disable both the HTTP and HTTPS servers. Enter the no http server and the no http secure-server commands, respectively.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable the HTTP server on both IPv4 and IPv6 systems.

After enabling the HTTP server, you can set the base path by specifying the location of the HTML files to be served. HTML files used by the HTTP web server typically reside in system flash memory. Remote URLs can be specified using this command, but use of remote path names (for example, where HTML files are located on a remote TFTP server) is not recommended.

Usage Guidelines

The HTTPS server uses the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) version 3.0 protocol.

Caution

When enabling an HTTPS server, you should always disable the standard HTTP server to prevent unsecured connections to the same services. Disable the standard HTTP server using the no ip http server command in global configuration mode (this step is precautionary; typically, the HTTP server is disabled by default).

If a certificate authority (CA) is used for certification, you should declare the CA trustpoint on the routing device before enabling the HTTPS server.

To close HTTP/TCP port 8090, you must disable both the HTTP and HTTPS servers. Enter the no http server and the no http secure-server commands, respectively.

Examples

In the following example the HTTPS server is enabled, and the (previously configured) CA trustpoint CA-trust-local is specified:


Device#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Device(config)#ip http secure-server
Device(config)#ip http secure-trustpoint CA-trust-local

ip nhrp map

To statically configure the IP-to-nonbroadcast multiaccess (NBMA) address mapping of IP destinations connected to an NBMA network, use the ip nhrp map command in interface configuration mode. To remove the static entry from Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP) cache, use the no form of this command.

ip nhrp map ip-address {ip-nbma-address | destination-mask [ip-nbma-address | ipv6-nbma-address] | ipv6-nbma-address}

no ip nhrp map ip-address {ip-nbma-address | destination-mask [ip-nbma-address | ipv6-nbma-address] | ipv6-nbma-address}

Syntax Description

ip-address

IP address of the destinations reachable through the NBMA network. This address is mapped to the NBMA address.

ip-nbma-address

NBMA address that is directly reachable through the NBMA network. The address format varies depending on the medium; for example, ATM has a Network Service Access Point (NSAP) address, Ethernet has a MAC address, and Switched Multimegabit Data Service (SMDS) has an E.164 address. This address is mapped to the IP address.

destination-mask

Destination address mask.

ipv6-nbma-address

IPv6 NBMA address.

Note

This argument is not supported in Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.3.1.

Command Default

No static IP-to-NBMA cache entries exist.

Command Modes

Interface configuration(config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

In Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.3.1, NHRP supports only hub-to-spoke communication; spoke-to-spoke communication is not supported.

Note

In Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.3.1, this command supports only IPv4; the ipv6-nbma-address argument although available on the switch, will not work if configured.

Configure at least one static mapping to reach the next-hop server. To statistically configure multiple IP-to-NBMA address mappings, configure this command multiple times.

When using the routing protocols, Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) or Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), configure the ip ospf network point-to-multipoint (when OSPF is used for hub-to-spoke communication) and ip split-horizon eigrp (when EIGRP is used) commands on the tunnel to allow the traffic.

Examples

In the following example, this station in a multipoint tunnel network is statically configured to be served by two next-hop servers 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.1.3. The NBMA address for 10.0.0.1 is statically configured as 192.0.2.1 and the NBMA address for 10.0.1.3 is 198.51.100.1.


Switch(config)# interface tunnel 0
Switch(config-if)# ip nhrp nhs 10.0.0.1
Switch(config-if)# ip nhrp nhs 10.0.1.3

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Note

In Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.3.1, this command supports only IPv4; the ipv6-nbma-address argument although available on the switch, will not work if configured.

This command applies only to tunnel interfaces. This command is useful for supporting broadcasts over a tunnel network when the underlying network does not support IP multicast. If the underlying network does support IP multicast, you should use the tunnel destination command to configure a multicast destination for transmission of tunnel broadcasts or multicasts.

When multiple NBMA addresses are configured, the system replicates the broadcast packet for each address.

Examples

In the following example, if a packet is sent to 10.255.255.255, it is replicated to destinations 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2:


Switch(config)# interface tunnel 0
Switch(config-if)# ip address 10.0.0.3 255.0.0.0
Switch(config-if)# ip nhrp map multicast 10.0.0.1
Switch(config-if)# ip nhrp map multicast 10.0.0.2

ip nhrp nhs

To specify the address of one or more Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP) servers, use the ip nhrp nhs command in interface configuration mode. To remove the address, use the no form of this command.

ip nhrp nhs {nhs-address [nbma {nbma-address | FQDN-string}] [multicast] [priority value] [cluster value] | cluster value max-connections value | dynamic nbma {nbma-address | FQDN-string} [multicast] [priority value] [cluster value] | fallback seconds}

no ip nhrp nhs {nhs-address [nbma {nbma-address | FQDN-string}] [multicast] [priority value] [cluster value] | cluster value max-connections value | dynamic nbma {nbma-address | FQDN-string} [multicast] [priority value] [cluster value] | fallback seconds}

Syntax Description


`nhs-address`	Address of the next-hop server being specified.
nbma	(Optional) Specifies the nonbroadcast multiple access (NBMA) address or FQDN.
`nbma-address`	NBMA address.
`FQDN-string`	Next hop server (NHS) fully qualified domain name (FQDN) string.
multicast	(Optional) Specifies the use of NBMA mapping for broadcasts and multicasts.
priority `value`	(Optional) Assigns a priority to hubs to control the order in which spokes select hubs to establish tunnels. The range is from 0 to 255; 0 is the highest and 255 is the lowest priority.
cluster `value`	(Optional) Specifies NHS groups. The range is from 0 to 10.
max-connections `value`	Specifies the number of NHS elements from each NHS group that needs to be active. The range is from 0 to 255.
dynamic	Configures the spoke to learn the NHS protocol address dynamically.
fallback `seconds`	Specifies the duration, in seconds, for which the spoke must wait before falling back to an NHS of higher priority upon recovery.

Command Default

No next-hop servers are explicitly configured, so normal network layer routing decisions are used to forward NHRP traffic.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.3.1	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

Use the ip nhrp nhs command to specify the address of a next hop server and the networks it serves. Normally, NHRP consults the network layer forwarding table to determine how to forward NHRP packets. When next hop servers are configured, these next hop addresses override the forwarding path that would otherwise be used for NHRP traffic.

For any next hop server that is configured, you can specify multiple networks by repeating the ip nhrp nhs command with the same nhs-address argument, but with different IP network addresses.

Examples

The following example shows how to register a hub to a spoke using NBMA and FQDN:


Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface tunnel 1
Switch(config-if)# ip nhrp nhs 192.0.2.1 nbma examplehub.example1.com

The following example shows how to configure the desired max-connections value:


Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface tunnel 1
Switch(config-if)# ip nhrp nhs cluster 5 max-connections 100

The following example shows how to configure the NHS fallback time:


Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface tunnel 1
Switch(config-if)# ip nhrp nhs fallback 25

The following example shows how to configure NHS priority and group values:

To configure the duration of time before an IPv6 neighbor discovery cache entry expires, use the ipv6 nd cache expire command in the interface configuration mode. To remove this configuration, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 nd cache expire expire-time-in-seconds [refresh]

no ipv6 nd cache expire expire-time-in-seconds [refresh]

Syntax Description

refresh	(Optional) Automatically refreshes the neighbor discovery cache entry.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE 3.2SE	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

By default, a neighbor discovery cache entry is expired and deleted if it remains in the STALE state for 14,400 seconds or 4 hours. The ipv6 nd cache expire command allows the expiry time to vary and to trigger auto refresh of an expired entry before the entry is deleted.

When the refresh keyword is used, a neighbor discovery cache entry is auto refreshed. The entry moves into the DELAY state and the neighbor unreachability detection process occurs, in which the entry transitions from the DELAY state to the PROBE state after 5 seconds. When the entry reaches the PROBE state, a neighbor solicitation is sent and then retransmitted as per the configuration.

Examples

The following example shows that the neighbor discovery cache entry is configured to expire in 7200 seconds or 2 hours:

Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1/4
Device(config-if)# ipv6 nd cache expire 7200

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE 3.2SE	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

IPv6 nodes may emit a multicast unsolicited neighbor advertisement packet following the successful completion of duplicate address detection (DAD). By default, other IPv6 nodes ignore these unsolicited neighbor advertisement packets. The ipv6 nd na glean command configures the router to create a neighbor advertisement entry on receipt of an unsolicited neighbor advertisement packet (assuming no such entry already exists and the neighbor advertisement has the link-layer address option). Use of this command allows a device to populate its neighbor advertisement cache with an entry for a neighbor before data traffic exchange with the neighbor.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure neighbor discovery to glean an entry from an unsolicited neighbor advertisement:

Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1/4
Device(config-if)# ipv6 nd na glean

show ipv6 interface	Displays the usability status of interfaces that are configured for IPv6.

ipv6 nd nud retry

To configure the number of times the neighbor unreachability detection process resends neighbor solicitations, use the ipv6 nd nud retry command in the interface configuration mode. To disable this feature, use the no form of this command.

ipv6 nd nud retry base interval max-attempts {final-wait-time}

no ipv6 nd nud retry base interval max-attempts {final-wait-time}

Syntax Description


`base`	The neighbor unreachability detection process base value.
`interval`	The time interval, in milliseconds, between retries. The range is from 1000 to 32000.
`max-attempts`	The maximum number of retry attempts, depending on the base value. The range is from 1 to 128.
`final-wait-time`	The waiting time, in milliseconds, on the last probe. The range is from 1000 to 32000.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE 3.2SE	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

When a device runs neighbor unreachability detection to resolve the neighbor detection entry for a neighbor again, it sends three neighbor solicitation packets 1 second apart. In certain situations, for example, spanning-tree events, or high-traffic events, or end-host reloads), three neighbor solicitation packets that are sent at an interval of 1 second may not be sufficient. To help maintain the neighbor cache in such situations, use the ipv6 nd nud retry command to configure exponential timers for neighbor solicitation retransmits.

The maximum number of retry attempts is configured using the max-attempts argument. The retransmit interval is calculated with the following formula:

tm^n

here,

t = Time interval
m = Base (1, 2, or 3)
n = Current neighbor solicitation number (where the first neighbor solicitation is 0).

Therefore, ipv6 nd nud retry 3 1000 5 command retransmits at intervals of 1,3,9,27,81 seconds. If the final wait time is not configured, the entry remains for 243 seconds before it is deleted.

The ipv6 nd nud retry command affects only the retransmit rate for the neighbor unreachability detection process, and not for the initial resolution, which uses the default of three neighbor solicitation packets sent 1 second apart.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure a fixed interval of 1 second and three retransmits:

Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1/4
Device(config-if)# ipv6 nd nud retry 1 1000 3

The following example shows how to configure a retransmit interval of 1, 2, 4, and 8:

Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1/4
Device(config-if)# ipv6 nd nud retry 2 1000 4

The following example shows how to configure the retransmit intervals of 1, 3, 9, 27, 81:

Device> enable
Device# configure terminal
Device(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1/4
Device(config-if)# ipv6 nd nud retry 3 1000 5

key chain

To define an authentication key chain needed to enable authentication for routing protocols and enter key-chain configuration mode, use the key chain command in global configuration mode. To remove the key chain, use the no form of this command.

key chain name-of-chain

no key chain name-of-chain

Syntax Description


`name-of-chain`	Name of a key chain. A key chain must have at least one key and can have up to 2147483647 keys.

Command Default

No key chain exists.

Command Modes

Global configuration (config)

Usage Guidelines

You must configure a key chain with keys to enable authentication.

Although you can identify multiple key chains, we recommend using one key chain per interface per routing protocol. Upon specifying the key chain command, you enter key chain configuration mode.

Examples

The following example shows how to specify key chain:


Device(config-keychain-key)# key-string chestnut

Related Commands


Command	Description
accept-lifetime	Sets the time period during which the authentication key on a key chain is received as valid.
key	Identifies an authentication key on a key chain.
key-string (authentication)	Specifies the authentication string for a key.
send-lifetime	Sets the time period during which an authentication key on a key chain is valid to be sent.
show key chain	Displays authentication key information.

key-string (authentication)

To specify the authentication string for a key, use the key-string (authentication) command in key chain key configuration mode. To remove the authentication string, use the no form of this command.

key-string key-string text

no key-string text

Syntax Description


`text`	Authentication string that must be sent and received in the packets using the routing protocol being authenticated. The string can contain from 1 to 80 uppercase and lowercase alphanumeric characters.

Command Default

No authentication string for a key exists.

Command Modes

Key chain key configuration (config-keychain-key)

Examples

The following example shows how to specify the authentication string for a key:


Device(config-keychain-key)# key-string key1

Related Commands


Command	Description
accept-lifetime	Sets the time period during which the authentication key on a key chain is received as valid.
key	Identifies an authentication key on a key chain.
key chain	Defines an authentication key-chain needed to enable authentication for routing protocols.
send-lifetime	Sets the time period during which an authentication key on a key chain is valid to be sent.
show key chain	Displays authentication key information.

key

To identify an authentication key on a key chain, use the key command in key-chain configuration mode. To remove the key from the key chain, use the no form of this command.

key key-id

no key key-id

Syntax Description


`key-id`	Identification number of an authentication key on a key chain. The range of keys is from 0 to 2147483647. The key identification numbers need not be consecutive.

Command Default

Command Modes

Key-chain configuration (config-keychain)

Command History


Release	Modification
11.1	This command was introduced.
12.4(6)T	Support for IPv6 was added.
12.2(33)SRB	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.
12.2SX	This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Usage Guidelines

It is useful to have multiple keys on a key chain so that the software can sequence through the keys as they become invalid after time, based on the accept-lifetime and send-lifetime key chain key command settings.

Each key has its own key identifier, which is stored locally. The combination of the key identifier and the interface associated with the message uniquely identifies the authentication algorithm and Message Digest 5 (MD5) authentication key in use. Only one authentication packet is sent, regardless of the number of valid keys. The software starts looking at the lowest key identifier number and uses the first valid key.

If the last key expires, authentication will continue and an error message will be generated. To disable authentication, you must manually delete the last valid key.

To remove all keys, remove the key chain by using the no key chain command.

Examples

The following example shows how to specify a key to identify authentication on a key-chain:


Device(config-keychain)# key 1

Related Commands


Command	Description
accept-lifetime	Sets the time period during which the authentication key on a key chain is received as valid.

Table 2. show glbp Field Descriptions
Field	Description
GigabitEthernet1/0/1 - Group	Interface type and number and GLBP group number for the interface.
State is	State of the virtual gateway or virtual forwarder. For a virtual gateway, the state can be one of the following: Active--The gateway is the active virtual gateway (AVG) and is responsible for responding to Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) requests for the virtual IP address. Disabled--The virtual IP address has not been configured or learned yet, but another GLBP configuration exists. Initial--The virtual IP address has been configured or learned, but virtual gateway configuration is not complete. An interface must be up and configured to route IP, and an interface IP address must be configured. Listen--The virtual gateway is receiving hello packets and is ready to change to the “speak” state if the active or standby virtual gateway becomes unavailable. Speak--The virtual gateway is attempting to become the active or standby virtual gateway. Standby--The gateway is next in line to be the AVG.
Virtual IP address is	The virtual IP address of the GLBP group. All secondary virtual IP addresses are listed on separate lines. If one of the virtual IP addresses is a duplicate of an address configured for another device, it will be marked as “duplicate.” A duplicate address indicates that the device has failed to defend its ARP cache entry.
Hello time, hold time	The hello time is the time between hello packets (in seconds or milliseconds). The hold time is the time (in seconds or milliseconds) before other devices declare the active device to be down. All devices in a GLBP group use the hello- and hold-time values of the current AVG. If the locally configured values are different, the configured values appear in parentheses after the hello- and hold-time values.
Next hello sent in	The time until GLBP will send the next hello packet (in seconds or milliseconds).
Preemption	Whether GLBP gateway preemption is enabled. If enabled, the minimum delay is the time (in seconds) for which a higher-priority nonactive device will wait before preempting the lower-priority active device. This field is also displayed under the forwarder section where it indicates GLBP forwarder preemption.
Active is	The active state of the virtual gateway. The value can be “local,” “unknown,” or an IP address. The address (and the expiration date of the address) is the address of the current AVG. This field is also displayed under the forwarder section where it indicates the address of the current AVF.
Standby is	The standby state of the virtual gateway. The value can be “local,” “unknown,” or an IP address. The address (and the expiration date of the address) is the address of the standby gateway (the gateway that is next in line to be the AVG).
Weighting	The initial weighting value with lower and upper threshold values.
Track object	The list of objects that are being tracked and their corresponding states.
IP redundancy name is	The name of the GLBP group.

Command History


Release	Modification
Cisco IOS XE Release 2.1	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS XE Release 2.1.
XE 3.10S	This command was modified. The output was enhanced to display IPv6 route information.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to display information about objects that are tracked by the tracking process. When no arguments or keywords are specified, information for all objects is displayed.

A maximum of 1000 objects can be tracked. Although 1000 tracked objects can be configured, each tracked object uses CPU resources. The amount of available CPU resources on a device is dependent upon variables such as traffic load and how other protocols are configured and run. The ability to use 1000 tracked objects is dependent upon the available CPU. Testing should be conducted on site to ensure that the service works under the specific site traffic conditions.

Examples

The following example shows information about the state of IP routing on the interface that is being tracked:


Device# show track 1

Track 1
 Interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 ip routing
 IP routing is Down (no IP addr)
  1 change, last change 00:01:08

The table below describes the significant fields shown in the displays.

Table 5. show track Field Descriptions
Field	Description

track ip route	Tracks the state of an IP route and enters tracking configuration mode.

track

To configure an interface to be tracked where the Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP) weighting changes based on the state of the interface, use the track command in global configuration mode. To remove the tracking, use the no form of this command.

track object-number interface type number {line-protocol | ip routing|ipv6 routing}

no track object-number interface type number {line-protocol | ip routing|ipv6 routing}

Syntax Description


`object-number`	Object number in the range from 1 to 1000 representing the interface to be tracked.
interface `type` `number`	Interface type and number to be tracked.
line-protocol	Tracks whether the interface is up.
ip routing	Tracks whether IP routing is enabled, an IP address is configured on the interface, and the interface state is up, before reporting to GLBP that the interface is up.
ipv6 routing	Tracks whether IPv6 routing is enabled, an IP address is configured on the interface, and the interface state is up, before reporting to GLBP that the interface is up.

Command Default

The state of the interfaces is not tracked.

Command Modes

Global configuration (config)

Usage Guidelines

Use the track command in conjunction with the glbp weighting and glbp weighting track commands to configure parameters for an interface to be tracked. If a tracked interface on a GLBP device goes down, the weighting for that device is reduced. If the weighting falls below a specified minimum, the device will lose its ability to act as an active GLBP virtual forwarder.

A maximum of 1000 objects can be tracked. Although 1000 tracked objects can be configured, each tracked object uses CPU resources. The amount of available CPU resources on a device is dependent upon variables such as traffic load and how other protocols are configured and run. The ability to use 1000 tracked objects is dependent upon the available CPU. Testing should be conducted on site to ensure that the service works under the specific site traffic conditions.

Examples

In the following example, TenGigabitEthernet interface 0/0/1 tracks whether GigabitEthernet interfaces 1/0/1 and 1/0/3 are up. If either of the GigabitEthernet interface goes down, the GLBP weighting is reduced by the default value of 10. If both GigabitEthernet interfaces go down, the GLBP weighting will fall below the lower threshold and the device will no longer be an active forwarder. To resume its role as an active forwarder, the device must have both tracked interfaces back up, and the weighting must rise above the upper threshold.


Device(config)# track 1 interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 line-protocol 
Device(config-track)# exit
Device(config)# track 2 interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/3 line-protocol 
Device(config-track)# exit
