aaa accounting dot1x default start-stop group radius

To enable accounting for dot.1x authentication sessions, use the aaa accounting dot1x default start-stop group radius command. Use the no form of this command to disable accounting.

aaa accounting dot1x default start-stop group radius

no aaa accounting dot1x default start-stop group radius

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

Accounting is disabled.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines

802.1x accounting requires a RADIUS server.

This command enables the Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) client's accounting feature to forward 802.1x update and watchdog packets from the 802.1x supplicant (workstation client) to the authentication (RADIUS) server. (Watchdog packets are defined as EAPOL-LOGON, EAPOL-LOGOFF, and EAPOL-INTERIM messages.) Successful authentication and authorization of the supplicant by the authentication server is required before these packets are considered valid and are forwarded. When the client is reauthenticated, an interim-update accounting notice is sent to the accounting server.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure 802.1x accounting:

Switch(config)# aaa accounting dot1x default start-stop group radius

Note The RADIUS authentication server must be properly configured to accept and log update or watchdog packets from the AAA client.

Related Commands

aaa accounting system default start-stop group radius

aaa accounting system default start-stop group radius

To receive session termination messages after the switch reboots, use the aaa accounting system default start-stop group radius command. Use the no form of this command to disable accounting.

aaa accounting system default start-stop group radius

no aaa accounting system default start-stop group radius

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

Accounting is disabled.

Command Modes

Global configuration mode

Command History

Usage Guidelines

802.1x accounting requires the RADIUS server.

This command enables the AAA client's accounting feature to forward 802.1x update and watchdog packets from the 802.1x supplicant (workstation client) to the authentication (RADIUS) server. (Watchdog packets are defined as EAPOL-LOGON, EAPOL-LOGOFF, and EAPOL-INTERIM messages.) Successful authentication and authorization of the supplicant by the authentication server is required before these packets are considered valid and are forwarded. When the client is reauthenticated, an interim-update accounting notice is sent to the accounting server.

Examples

The following example shows how to generate a logoff after a switch reboots:

Switch(config)# aaa accounting system default start-stop group radius

Note The RADIUS authentication server must be properly configured to accept and log update or watchdog packets from the AAA client.

Related Commands

access-group mode

To specify override modes (for example, VACL overrides PACL) and non-override modes (for example, merge or strict mode), use the access-group mode command. Use the no form of this command to return to preferred port mode.

access-group mode {prefer {port | vlan} | merge}

no access-group mode {prefer {port | vlan} | merge}

Syntax Description

Defaults

PACL override mode

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines

On the Layer 2 interface, prefer port, prefer VLAN, and merge modes are supported. A Layer 2 interface can have one IP ACL applied in either direction (one inbound and one outbound).

Examples

This example shows how to make the PACL mode on the switch take effect:

(config-if)# access-group mode prefer port

This example shows how to merge applicable ACL features:

(config-if)# access-group mode merge

Related Commands

show access-group mode interface
show ip interface (refer to Cisco IOS documentation)
show mac access-group interface

action

To specify an action to be taken when a match occurs in a VACL, use the action command. To remove an action clause, use the no form of this command.

action {drop | forward}

no action {drop | forward}

Syntax Description

Defaults

This command has no default settings.

Command Modes

VLAN access-map

Command History

Usage Guidelines

In a VLAN access map, if at least one ACL is configured for a packet type (IP or MAC), the default action for the packet type is drop (deny).

If an ACL is not configured for a packet type, the default action for the packet type is forward (permit).

If an ACL for a packet type is configured and the ACL is empty or undefined, the configured action will be applied to the packet type.

Examples

This example shows how to define a drop action:

Switch(config-access-map)# action drop 

Switch(config-access-map)# 

This example shows how to define a forward action:

Switch(config-access-map)# action forward 

Switch(config-access-map)# 

Related Commands

apply

To implement a new VLAN database, increment the configuration number, save the configuration number in NVRAM, and propagate the configuration number throughout the administrative domain, use the apply command.

apply

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Defaults

This command has no default settings.

Command Modes

VLAN configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines

The apply command implements the configuration changes you made after you entered VLAN database mode and uses them for the running configuration. This command keeps you in VLAN database mode.

You cannot use this command when the switch is in the VTP client mode.

You can verify that VLAN database changes occurred by entering the show vlan command from privileged EXEC mode.

Examples

This example shows how to implement the proposed new VLAN database and to recognize it as the current database:

Switch(config-vlan)# apply

Switch(config-vlan)#

attach module

To remotely connect to a specific module, use the attach module configuration command.

attach module mod

Syntax Description

Defaults

This command has no default settings.

Command Modes

Privileged

Command History

Usage Guidelines

This command applies only to the Access Gateway Module on Catalyst 4500 series switches.

The valid values for mod depend on the chassis used. For example, if you have a Catalyst 4006 chassis, valid values for the module are from 2 to 6. If you have a 4507R chassis, valid values are from 3 to 7.

When you execute the attach module mod command, the prompt changes to Gateway#.

This command is identical in the resulting action to the session module mod and the remote login module mod commands.

Examples

This example shows how to remotely log in to an Access Gateway Module:

Switch# attach module 5

Attaching console to module 5

Type 'exit' at the remote prompt to end the session

Gateway>

auto qos voip

To automatically configure quality of service (auto-QoS) for voice over IP (VoIP) within a QoS domain, use the auto qos voip interface configuration command. Use the no form of this command to change the auto-QoS configuration settings to the standard QoS defaults.

auto qos voip {cisco-phone | trust}

no auto qos voip {cisco-phone | trust}

Syntax Description

Defaults

Auto-QoS is disabled on all interfaces.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to configure the QoS appropriate for VoIP traffic within the QoS domain. The QoS domain includes the switch, the interior of the network, and the edge devices that can classify incoming traffic for QoS.

Use the cisco-phone keyword on ports at the edge of the network that are connected to Cisco IP phones. The switch detects the telephone through the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) and trusts the CoS labels in packets received from the telephone.

Use the trust keyword on ports connected to the interior of the network. Because it is assumed that traffic has already been classified by other edge devices, the CoS/DSCP labels in these packets are trusted.

When you enable the auto-QoS feature on the specified interface, these actions automatically occur:

•QoS is globally enabled (qos global configuration command).

•DBL is enabled globally (qos dbl global configuration command).

•When you enter the auto qos voip cisco-phone interface configuration command, the trusted boundary feature is enabled. It uses the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) to detect the presence or absence of a Cisco IP phone. When a Cisco IP phone is detected, the ingress classification on the specific interface is set to trust the CoS label received in the packet because some old phones do not mark DSCP. When a Cisco IP phone is absent, the ingress classification is set to not trust the CoS label in the packet.

•When you enter the auto qos voip trust interface configuration command, the ingress classification on the specified interface is set to trust the CoS label received in the packet if the specified interface is configured as Layer 2 (and is set to trust DSCP if the interface is configured as Layer 3).

You can enable auto-QoS on static, dynamic-access, voice VLAN access, and trunk ports.

To display the QoS configuration that is automatically generated when auto-QoS is enabled, enable debugging before you enable auto-QoS. Use the debug auto qos privileged EXEC command to enable auto-QoS debugging.

To disable auto-QoS on an interface, use the no auto qos voip interface configuration command. When you enter this command, the switch enables standard QoS and changes the auto-QoS settings to the standard QoS default settings for that interface. This action will not change any global configuration performed by auto-QoS; the global configuration remains the same.

Examples

This example shows how to enable auto-QoS and to trust the CoS and DSCP labels received in incoming packets when the switch or router connected to Gigabit Ethernet interface 1/1 is a trusted device:

Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/1

Switch(config-if)# auto qos voip trust

This example shows how to enable auto-QoS and to trust the CoS labels received in incoming packets when the device connected to Fast Ethernet interface 2/1 is detected as a Cisco IP phone:

Switch(config)# interface fastethernet2/1

Switch(config-if)# auto qos voip cisco-phone

This example shows how to display the QoS configuration that is automatically generated when auto-QoS is enabled:

Switch# debug auto qos

AutoQoS debugging is on

Switch# config terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

auto-sync

To enable automatic synchronization of the configuration files in NVRAM, use the auto-sync command. To disable automatic synchronization, use the no form of this command.

auto-sync {startup-config | config-register | bootvar | standard}

no auto-sync {startup-config | config-register | bootvar | standard}

Syntax Description

Defaults

Standard automatic synchronization of all configuration files

Command Modes

Redundancy main-cpu

Command History

Usage Guidelines

If you enter the no auto-sync standard command, no automatic synchronizations occur.

Examples

This example shows how (from the default configuration) to enable automatic synchronization of the configuration register in the main CPU:

Switch# config terminal

Switch (config)# redundancy

Switch (config-r)# main-cpu

Switch (config-r-mc)# no auto-sync standard

Switch (config-r-mc)# auto-sync configure-register

Switch (config-r-mc)# 

Related Commands

channel-group

To assign and configure an EtherChannel interface to an EtherChannel group, use the channel-group command. To remove a channel group configuration from an interface, use the no form of this command.

channel-group number mode {active | on | auto [non-silent]} | {passive | desirable [non-silent]}

no channel-group

Syntax Description

Defaults

No channel groups are assigned.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines

You do not have to create a port channel interface before assigning a physical interface to a channel group. If a port channel interface has not been created, it is automatically created when the first physical interface for the channel group is created.

If a specific channel number is used for the PAgP-enabled interfaces of a channel group, that same channel number cannot be used for configuring a channel that has LACP-enabled interfaces or vice versa.

You can also create port channels by entering the interface port-channel command. This will create a Layer 3 port channel. To change the Layer 3 port channel into a Layer 2 port channel, use the switchport command before you assign physical interfaces to the channel group. A port channel cannot be changed from Layer 3 to Layer 2 or vice versa when it contains member ports.

You do not have to disable the IP address that is assigned to a physical interface that is part of a channel group, but we recommend that you do so.

Any configuration or attribute changes you make to the port-channel interface are propagated to all interfaces within the same channel group as the port channel (for example, configuration changes are also propagated to the physical interfaces that are not part of the port channel, but are part of the channel group).

You can create in on mode a usable EtherChannel by connecting two port groups together.

Caution Do not enable Layer 3 addresses on the physical EtherChannel interfaces. Do not assign bridge groups on the physical EtherChannel interfaces because it creates loops.

Examples

This example shows how to add Gigabit Ethernet interface 1/1 to the EtherChannel group specified by port channel 45:

Switch(config-if)# channel-group 45 mode on 

Creating a port-channel interface Port-channel45

Switch(config-if)# 

Related Commands

show interfaces port-channel (refer to Cisco IOS documentation)

channel-protocol

To enable LACP or PAgP on an interface, use the channel-protocol command. To disable the protocols, use the no form of this command.

channel-protocol {lacp | pagp}

no channel-protocol {lacp | pagp}

Syntax Description

Defaults

PAgP

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines

This command is not supported on systems configured with a Supervisor Engine 1.

You can also select the protocol using the channel-group command.

If the interface belongs to a channel, the no form of this command is rejected.

All ports in an EtherChannel must use the same protocol; you cannot run two protocols on one module.

PAgP and LACP are not compatible; both ends of a channel must use the same protocol.

You can manually configure a switch with PAgP on one side and LACP on the other side in the on mode.

You can change the protocol at any time, but this change causes all existing EtherChannels to reset to the default channel mode for the new protocol. You can use the channel-protocol command to restrict anyone from selecting a mode that is not applicable to the selected protocol.

Configure all ports in an EtherChannel to operate at the same speed and duplex mode (full duplex only for LACP mode).

For a complete list of guidelines, refer to the "Configuring EtherChannel" section of the Catalyst 4500 Series Switch Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide.

Examples

This example shows how to select LACP to manage channeling on the interface:

Switch(config-if)# channel-protocol lacp

Switch(config-if)# 

Related Commands

class-map

To access the QoS class map configuration mode to configure QoS class maps, use the class-map command. To delete a class map, use the no form of this command.

class-map [match-all | match-any] name

no class-map [match-all | match-any] name

Syntax Description

Defaults

Match all criteria.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines

The variables name and acl_name are case sensitive.

Use the class-map command and its subcommands on individual interfaces to define packet classification, marking, aggregate, and flow policing as part of a globally named service policy.

These commands are available in QoS class map configuration mode:

•exit—Exits you from QoS class map configuration mode.

•no—Removes a match statement from a class map.

•match—Configures classification criteria.

These optional subcommands are also available:

–access-group {acl_index | name acl_name}

–ip {dscp | precedence} value1 value2... value8

–any

The following subcommands appear in the CLI help, but they are not supported on LAN interfaces:

•input-interface {interface interface_number | null number | vlan vlan_id}

•protocol linktype

•destination-address mac mac_address

•source-address mac mac_address

•qos-group

•mpls

•no

After you have configured the class map name and are in class map configuration mode, you can enter the match subcommands. The syntax for these subcommands is as follows:

match {[access-group {acl_index | name acl_name}] | [ip {dscp | precedence} value1 value2... value8]}

See Table 2-1 for a syntax description of the match subcommands.

Examples

This example shows how to access the class-map commands and subcommands and to configure a class map named ipp5 and enter a match statement for ip precedence 5:

Switch# config terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

Switch(config)# class-map ipp5

Switch(config-cmap)# match ip precedence 5

Switch(config-cmap)# 

This example shows how to configure the class map to match an already configured access list:

Switch(config-cmap)# match access-group IPacl1

Switch(config-cmap)#
