Command Reference



Note The terms "Unidirectional Path Switched Ring" and "UPSR" may appear in Cisco literature. These terms do not refer to using Cisco ONS 15xxx products in a unidirectional path switched ring configuration. Rather, these terms, as well as "Path Protected Mesh Network" and "PPMN," refer generally to Cisco's path protection feature, which may be used in any topological network configuration. Cisco does not recommend using its path protection feature in any particular topological network configuration.


This appendix provides a command reference for those Cisco IOS commands or those aspects of Cisco IOS commands unique to ML-Series cards. For information about the standard IOS Release 12.1 commands, refer to the IOS documentation set available from the Cisco.com home page. Use the Select an Area pull-down menu to select Products and Services > Technical Documentation. On the Cisco Product Documentation home page, select Release 12.1 from the Cisco IOS Software drop-down list.

[no] bridge < bridge-group-number > protocol {drpri-rstp | ieee | rstp}

To define the protocol employed by a bridge-group use the bridge protocol global configuration command. If no protocol will be employed by the bridge-group, this command is not needed. To remove a protocol from the bridge group, use the no form of this command with the appropriate keywords and arguments.

Parameter
Description

drpri-rstp

The protocol that enables the Dual RPR Interconnect (DRPRI) feature of the ML-Series cards.

ieee

IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol

rstp

IEEE 802.1W Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol

bridge-group-number

The identifying number of the bridge group being assigned a protocol.


Defaults

N/A

Command Modes

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The protocol DRPRI-RSTP is only employed when configuring ML-Series cards as part of a DRPRI. For more information, see Configuring DRPRI. A bridge group with DRPRI is limited to one protocol, so the bridge group cannot also implement RSTP or STP.

Examples

The following example assigns the DRPRI protocol to the bridge group with the bridge group number of 100.

Router(config)# bridge 100 protocol drpri-rstp

[no] clock auto

Use the clock auto command to determine whether the system clock parameters are configured automatically from the TCC+/TCC2. When enabled both summertime and timezone are automatically configured, and the system clock is periodically synchronized to the TCC+/TCC2. Use the no form of the command to disable this feature.

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

The default setting is clock auto.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The no form of the command is required before any manual configuration of summertime, timezone, or clock. The no form of the command is required if Network Time Protocol (NTP) is configured in Cisco IOS. The ONS 15454 SONET/SDH is also configured through CTC to use a NTP or Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) server to set the date and time of the node.

Examples

Router(config)#no clock auto 

Related Commands

interface spr 1

Use this command to create a shared packet ring (spr) interface on an ML-Series card for RPR. If the interface has already been created, this command enters spr interface configuration mode. The only valid spr interface number is 1.

Defaults

N/A

Command Modes

Global configuration

Usage Guidelines

The command allows the user to create a virtual interface for the RPR/SPR. Commands, such as spr wrap or spr station-id, can then be applied to the RPR through SPR configuration command mode.

Examples

The following example creates the shared packet ring interface:

Router(config)# interface spr 1

Related Commands

spr drpri-id

spr-intf-id

spr wrap

[no] pos flag c2 <value>

Use this command to specify the C2 byte value for transmitted and received frames. Use the no form of the command to return the C2 byte to it's default value.

Parameter
Description

value

C2 byte value


Defaults

When changing the encapsulation on a POS port between LEX and PPP/HDLC, the scrambling and c2 settings will be automatically changed to their default values according to the table below.

encap
scrambling
c2

LEX

pos scramble-spe

pos flag c2 0x01

PPP/HDLC

no pos scramble-spe

pos flag c2 0xCF


In PPP/HDLC encapsulation, changing the scrambling, automatically changes the "pos flag c2" to it's default according to the table below. In LEX encapsulation, changing the scrambling does not affect c2.

encap
scrambling
c2

PPP/HDLC

pos scramble-spe

pos flag c2 0xCF

PPP/HDLC

no pos scramble-spe

pos flag c2 0x16


Command Modes

Interface configuration mode (POS only)

Usage Guidelines

This value is normally configured to match the setting on the peer Path Terminating Equipment (PTE). Using the correct order of operations will avoid having the non-default settings overridden by the encapsulation change. The recommended order follows:

Set encap to PPP/HDLC

Set scrambling (if a non-default setting is required)

Set c2 (if a non-default setting is required)

Also note that the crc setting varies among different types of PTE. The default crc on the ML series card is 32-bits, regardless of any other settings. In most circumstances, the default settings should be correct, but users need to verify this with the user documentation for the PTE.

Examples

Gateway(config)#int pos0
Gateway(config-if)#pos flag c2 0x16

Related Commands

pos report

[no] pos report alarm

Use this command to specify which alarms/signals are logged to the console. This command has no effect on whether alarms are reported to the TCC2/TCC2P and CTC. These conditions are soaked and cleared per Telcordia GR-253. Use the no form of the command to disable reporting of a specific alarm/signal.

spr drpri-id < 0 | 1 >

Creates a DRPRI identification number of 0 or 1 to differentiate between the ML-Series cards paired for the Dual RPR Interconnect (DRPRI) protection feature.

Defaults

N/A

Command Modes

SPR Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

DRPRI paired sets share the same SPR station ID, so the DRPRI identification number helps identify a particular card in a DRPRI pair.

Examples

The following example assigns a DRPRI identification number of zero to the SPR interface on an ML-Series card:

Router(config)# interface spr 1
Router(config-if)# spr drpri-id 0

Related Commands

interface spr 1

spr-intf-id

spr station-id

spr wrap

spr-intf-id <shared-packet -ring-number>

Assigns the POS interface to the SPR interface.

Parameter
Description

shared-packet-ring-number

The only valid shared-packet-ring-number (SPR number) is 1.


Defaults

N/A

Command Modes

POS Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

The SPR number must be 1, which is the same SPR number assigned to the SPR interface.

The members of the SPR interface must be POS interfaces.

An SPR interface is configured similarly to a EtherChannel (port-channel) interface. Instead of using the channel-group command to define the members, you use the spr-intf-ID command. And like port-channel, you then configure the SPR interfaces instead of the POS interface.

Examples

The following example assigns an ML-Series card POS interface to an SPR interface with the shared-packet-ring-number of 1:

Router(config)# interface pos 0
Router(config-if)# spr-intf-id 1

Related Commands

interface spr 1

spr drpri-id

spr station-id

spr wrap

spr station-id <station-id-number>

Configures a station ID.

Parameter
Description

staion-id-number

The user must configure a different number for each SPR interface that attaches to the RPR. Valid station ID numbers range from 1 to 254.


Defaults

N/A

Command Modes

SPR Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

The station ID differentiates among the SPR interfaces from the different ML-Series cards attached to the RPR.

Examples

The following example sets an ML-Series card SPR station ID to 100:

Router(config)# interface spr 1 
Router(config-if)# spr station-id 100

Related Commands

interface spr 1

spr drpri-id

spr-intf-id

spr wrap

spr wrap <immediate | delayed>

Sets the RPR wrap mode to either wrap traffic the instant it detects a link state change or to wrap traffic after the carrier delay, which gives the SONET protection time to register the defect and declare the link down.

Parameter
Description

immediate

Wraps RPR traffic the instant it detects a link state change.

delayed

Wraps RPR traffic after the carrier delay time expires.


Defaults

The default setting is immediate.

Command Modes

SPR Interface configuration

Usage Guidelines

Immediate should be used if RPR is running over unprotected SONET circuits. Delayed should be run for SONET protected circuits (BLSR or path protection).

Examples

The following example sets an ML-Series card to delayed:

Router(config)# interface spr 1 
Router(config-if)# spr wrap delayed
