Super User Commands

This manual contains detailed descriptions of the IPX/IGX/BPX Software Release 8.2 super user commands. The IPX/IGX/BPX super user command descriptions are presented in alphabetical order. Access to these commands requires privilege level 0 (zero).

Caution  Use of these commands should be restricted to Cisco personnel and other qualified users, such as System Administrators. Do not distribute this information to casual users because improper use of some super user commands may lead to system malfunction or complete failure.

General Information

Table 1-1 lists all the IPX/IGX/BPX level 0 (super user) commands in alphabetical order. The table also lists whether the command can be used on IPX node, on a BPX node, and with a job. To access these commands, type in SuperUser at the login prompt. Then type in the super user password. To exit a command and return to the "next command" prompt, press the delete key.

The screens and examples used in this chapter are based on a network equipped with both IPX and BPX nodes. The nodes are all running a preliminary version of Release 8.2 system software. This command list reflects all commands available for this release of software. Refer to the Cisco StrataComCommand Reference for information on how to enter commands and for detailed descriptions of privilege level 1-6 commands.

Command Help

The StrataView Plus (SV+) workstation provides on-line help for all IPX/IGX/BPX commands. On-line help can be accessed through the SV+ FrameViewer icon. On-line help provides an abbreviated version of the information in this document, including the command function, syntax, and attributes. Hypertext links allow you to navigate through the various commands.

Commands

The pages that follow describe the super user commands available for Release 8.2. Commands are listed in alphabetical order, and most include a table describing the applicable system parameters and a typical screen display.

burnfwrev (Burn Firmware Image into Card(s)

The burnfwrev command burns a new firmware image into a specific card.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dspfwrev, getfwrev

Syntax

Function

This command is used to burn (load) a firmware image into the memory of a specific IPX/IGX/BPX card. Before using this command, the firmware image must have already been loaded into controller card's memory by the getfwrev command. A few seconds after issuing this command, the system displays a screen similar to Figure 1-1. A few moments later, the burn address column will start to indicate the addresses that are being "burned". When finished, the status will change to "Complete".

After all cards at a node have been updated with this command, issue a getfwrev 0.0 node name command. This command will clear the firmware image from the controller card's buffer area, allowing the buffer to be used for other purposes. Use the dspfwrev command to display the firmware image status on the controller card at any other time after the burn has been completed.

At the super user level (0), this command can only be used to change the revision level of a card's firmware. If the firmware revision results in a new model number for the card, only a user with the StrataCom privilege level will be able to burn the firmware image.

clrcnf (Clear Configuration Memory)

The clrcnf command clears the configuration memory at the current node and resets the node.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: No Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

loadcnf, runcnf, savecnf

Syntax

Function

This command erases most network configuration data, including connections, trunks, circuit lines, etc. for the local node. It may be required when updating a software release or when a node is physically moved to a different location and needs to be reconfigured. Before the command is performed, a warning is displayed and a confirmation is required. Figure 1-4 illustrates a typical screen.

This command should be used only on a node that has not yet been placed in service or when the network configuration has been previously saved so it can be quickly reloaded. The configuration can be saved in one of several ways:

• On a StrataView Plus terminal using the savecnf command. The node is then reloaded using the loadcnf command.

• On a standby controller card. Before entering the clrcnf command, remove the standby controller from its slot. The configuration data will be maintained in BRAM even though the power has been removed from the card.

Caution  Use the clrcnf command with great care. It is best not to use it unless specifically instructed to do so by Cisco TAC as it can make the node unreachable to the network.

*** Warning: ***

clrfpevt (Clear FastPAD Event Reporting)

The clrfpevt command disables the reporting of FastPAD events.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: No Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

setfpevt, dsplog

Syntax

Function

The reason for executing clrfpevt is to prevent the large number of logged events that accumulate when certain user-controlled disruptions occur. Without suspension of event-logging, the number of events caused by the disruption can cause the FastPAD to become unreachable. Remember to resume event logging by using the setfpevt command. Examples of these events are:

• FTM Y-cable switchover

• NPM/NPC switchover

• Adding a connection by using the addfrcons command

• Resetting the FastPAD (power cycling or by the resetfp command).

Example

clfpevt 9.3

Description

The command halts event logging for the FastPAD connected to port 9.3.

cnfcftst (Configure Communication Fail Test Pattern)

The cnfcftst command changes the configuration of the test pattern used for communication failure testing.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dspcftst

Syntax

Function

The communication fail test pattern is used to periodically test for failure of nodes to communicate with each other. This test pattern is also used to recover from communication fail conditions. A communication fail is defined as a loss of controller communication over one or more trunks to a particular node. A communication fail differs from a communication break condition in that the node may be reachable over other paths. The communication fail test is used to test the failed trunk for proper controller traffic.

This command allows the user to configure the communication fail test pattern byte by byte. It defaults to a pattern of four bytes of ones followed by four bytes of zeros. Varying the length of the test pattern makes the communications test more or less rigorous. Changing the characters determines the pattern sensitivity for strings of less than 14 bytes.

The dspcftst command displays the current communication test pattern. The parameters used for declaring and clearing communication fails are set by the cnfnodeparm command. Figure 1-7 illustrates a typical screen.

cnfchstats (Configure Channel Statistics Collection)

The cnfchstats command enables statistics collection for various channel parameters.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: BPX, IGX, IPX

Associated Commands

dspchstatcnf

Syntax

Function

This command enables statistics collecting for channel parameters. It is a debug tool and not necessary for everyday use.

Table 1-4 lists the statistics by type. Not all statistic types are available for all connections. Only valid statistics are displayed for the user to select from; the others appear in gray. If you are unsure of the size parameter to specify, select four bytes per sample.

The dspchstatcnf command displays the channel statistics configuration. Statistics are collected by and displayed on the StrataView Plus workstation. StrataView Plus allows statistics collection to be customized. A StrataView Plus-enabled channel statistic may be disabled by specifying the optional node name of the workstation as the last parameter on the command line.

cnfchts (Configure Channel Timestamp)

The cnfchts command configures the preage parameter for CDP or SDP data channels.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

cnfcdpparm

Syntax

Function

This command configures the preage parameter for data channels. The preage parameter is used to reduce the delay or improve throughput on a data connection. The preage parameter specifies the initial age to be timestamped on a packet used in a timestamped data connection. The timestamp in the data packet is used to prioritize packets and to determine when a packet is too old and should be discarded from the transmitting NTC queue. Data channels with the greater preage value will be transmitted sooner but the chance that they will be aged and discarded in an overloaded network is greater.

All values entered are rounded down to the nearest multiple of 250 microseconds. The default value is 0. Acceptable values are in the range 0 to the Max Time Stamped Packet Age' (set by the cnfsysparm command). When you enter this command, the system responds with the screen illustrated in the example below. The connection should be rerouted or restarted for the new value to take effect.

cnfmxbutil (Configure Muxbus Utilization)

The cnfmxbutil command configures the IPX MUXBUS utilization factor for each FRP.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

none

Syntax

Function

This command configures the MUXBUS utilization factor. A certain amount of MUXBUS bandwidth is allocated by system software for each FRP in an IPX node. Since the maximum data rate for an FRP is 2 Mbps, this is also the maximum amount of MUXBUS bandwidth reserved for the FRP.

In many applications, each of the four FRP ports is configured for a large number of 56 or 64 Kbps connections. System software adds up the bandwidth required for all the connections, multiplies by 121% to reserve extra bandwidth for overhead, then subtracts this amount from the total available MUXBUS bandwidth.

However, statistical full utilization is not often required on ports with a large number of connections and the MUXBUS bandwidth reserved may be reduced further. In nodes equipped with a T3 or E3 ATMT card, much of the MUXBUS bandwidth may be assigned to the ATM trunk and the remaining MUXBUS bandwidth may need to be allocated carefully.

Prior to release 7.1, the MUXBUS utilization factor was configurable only on a per-node basis using the cnfnodeparm command. All FRPs had to be configured the same. This command permits assigning the utilization factor for each FRP in the node on a slot by slot basis.

See Figure 1-27 for a sample screen. N/A is displayed for all slots not equipped with an FRP. Once the slot is selected, the system displays the message "Enter Utilization Factor". The allowable range is from 1 to 250% with a default of 121%. The extra 21% for the default is used to cover the overhead involved in encapsulating the frame relay frame in the FastPacket or ATM cell.

where 199.35.96.217 is the IP address, and 255.255.255.0 is the subnet mask.

Function

The network IP address and subnet mask support statistics collection for StrataView Plus. The cnfwip command defines the IP address the system uses to pass messages between StrataView Plus and the node. The Statistics Master process in StrataView PlusNetwork collects statistics. The Statistics Manager requests and receives statistics using TFTP Get and Put messages. These TFTP messages pass between the node and the Statistics Master using IP Relay. (See the cnfstatmast description for details on setting the Statistics Master address.)

• AIT

• BTM

• NTC

• NTM

• BNI

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dsptrkstathist, dsptrkstatcnf

Syntax

Function

Use the cnftrkparm command to optimize a network for particular traffic mixes. This command configures any of the trunk-specific parameters associated with a trunk card. It applies to either a FastPacket trunk or an ATM trunk. For ATM trunks, cnftrkparm applies to both physical and virtual trunks. Spacer queues indicated for the CLP and EFCN thresholds pertain to AIT and BTM cards in an IPX node or IGX node, respectively.

This command can also reconfigure trunk queue depths to meet the CEPT requirement for a maximum end-to-end delay of 10 milliseconds. For this purpose, enter the following:

cnftrkparm <trunk number> <parameter index> <parameter value>

where: trunk number specifies the trunk.
parameter index is 2 (which corresponds to the NTS queue).
parameter value is 7 (which is the maximum allowable queue depth).

When the system receives this command and a trunk number, it displays the configurable parameters with an index number for each. The parameters vary with the trunk type, as the subsequent figures and tables show. Table 1-18, Table 1-19, and Table 1-20 list the parameters for trunks carrying FastPackets and ATM cells on different platforms as well as virtual trunks. Figure 1-34, Figure 1-35, and Figure 1-36 show the response when you execute cnftrkparm for various trunks. A table follows each screen example for each type of trunk.

Associated Commands

cnfcdpparm, dspchan

Syntax

Function

This command specifies CDP card parameters relating to Voice Activity Detection (VAD), background noise injection, VF channel loss, echo suppression, and modem detection.

Upon cnfvchparm entry, the system displays "Enter channel(s)." After it has received all the parameters, the system displays "Reconfigure active CDP channels? (y/n)" for confirmation. A "y" entry immediately causes channel reconfiguration. Otherwise, channel re-configuration occurs by switching CDP cards or deleting and re-adding a connection.

The parameters that can be modified are listed in Table 1-23. Table 1-24 lists some sample calculated values for parameters 1 and 2. Table 1-25 lists the applicable values for parameter 3. Figure 1-47 and Figure 1-48 illustrates the system display for this command.

diagbus (Diagnose Failed Bus)

The diagbus command is used to diagnose a failed IPX MUXBUS.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock:Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

none

Syntax

Function

This command runs detailed diagnostics to isolate muxbus problems to a failed card or bus. It is used when a minor alarm is indicated and displaying the alarm (dspalms) screen indicates the message "bus needs diagnosis".

This command can only be run locally with a terminal connected directly to the CONTROL port or remotely from a modem connection. It can not be executed through a VT (virtual terminal) command or when the node's CONTROL port is configured for StrataView mode.

Caution This command may cause a major disruption in service on all lines and connections and should only be run at a time when this can be tolerated.

Performing this test can result in a major disruption in the operation of the node. It should not be performed except as a last resort. To fully isolate the failure may require manual removal of cards, including controller cards etc. For this reason, the command may not be executed over a Virtual Terminal connection.

If the test is successful, and no problems found, the system displays:

Both buses are OK

Otherwise, the system displays various messages to the operator for additional steps to perform in isolating the problem. These messages depend on the results of the diagnostics testing.

dspsig (Display Signalling)

The dspsig command displays the current signalling state received at the node from the specified voice channel.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: No Lock: No Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

cnfclnsigparm, cnfrcvsig, cnfclnsigparm

Syntax

Function

This command displays the current signalling state received at the node from the specified voice channel. The status of the transmit and receive A and B signalling bits (for DS1 trunks) or A, B, C and D signalling bits (for E1 trunks) are displayed as a 0 or 1. The status of the bits (0 or 1) depends on the signalling type utilized on the connection displayed. The transmit direction of transmission is towards the remote node; the receive direction is towards the local circuit line.

The dspsig command can be used to verify the connection signalling type. Figure 1-77 illustrates a typical screen. If you compare the A/B bit states on-hook and off-hook with those shown in the dspchcnf command, you will note that the node passes signalling straight through. The signalling definition is only important for monitoring the on-hook/off-hook state and setting conditioning patterns.

dsptrkstathist (Display Statistics History for a Trunk)

The dsptrkstathist command displays a history of configured statistics for a physical or virtual trunk.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

cnftrkstats, dsptrkstatcnf

Syntax

Function

The dsptrkstathist command is a statistics debugging command. It displays the data for the last five occurrences of the selected statistic. The available trunk statistics appear on screen upon entry of the dsptrkstathist command. (The cnftrkstats command enables individual statistics. The dsptrkstatcnf command displays the enabled statistics for a trunk.) Figure 1-85 displays a statistic history for virtual trunk 1.1.1. The statistic is TX ABR Overflow Dropped Cells. This is statistic number 169, which execution of dsptrkstatcnf shows as enabled for this trunk. (If a disabled statistic is selected, a message stating this appears above the command line prompt.) The entered bucket interval is 0 minutes, which means that only the preceding 60 seconds worth of gathered data for number 169 appears.

dsputl (Display Utilization)

The dsputl command displays the utilization factor for all voice connections on a specified circuit line.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: No Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

dspdutl

Syntax

Function

This command displays the actual percentage utilization for all voice connections on a single circuit line specified by the back slot (bslot) number. The percentage is calculated by dividing the number of packets transmitted over the total number of packets allocated to the specified channel. Only transmit packet rates are used. If percentage of actual utilization exceeds the configured utilization the channel appears in reverse video.

Figure 1-86 illustrates a typical display. In this example, the connections from 11.1 to 11.11 use VAD and the connections from 11.12 to 11.17 do not. The connections using VAD do not use any network bandwidth (0 utilization) until the connection is used. The other connections utilize the full bandwidth (100% utilization) even though they may be idle.

Use the dspdutl command to display utilization for data channels.

forcerev (Force Revision)

The forcerev command forces a software revision to be sent down a trunk to a remote node.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dsprevs, loadrev

Syntax

Function

This command sends a change revision message blindly down the specified trunk from the local node to the remote node. This allows primary revisions to be changed regardless of communication breaks and unreachable nodes. Usage of this command should only be necessary if a problem results in inconsistent revisions throughout a network.

Figure 1-87 illustrates an example screen. If the local node does not have the SW revision specified, the system will display "Unavailable X.X" as indicated. Use the getfwrev command to load the desired software revision into the node. Use the dsprevs command to display the revisions available on each node in the network.

Caution Use this command only when requested by StrataCom and under StrataCom supervision.

getfwrev (Get Firmware Revision)

The getfwrev command gets and loads a firmware image from StrataView, StrataView Plus, or a remote node into the specified node(s).

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

burnfwrev, dspfwrev, dspdnld

Syntax

Function

This command gets and loads a firmware revision image into the specified node's NPC memory. This firmware image can then be downloaded to specific interface cards within the node with the burnfwrev command. The firmware image must be already loaded into the StrataView or StrataView + terminal before using this command.

When the command is first entered, the status is temporarily "Unavailable" while the node attempts to locate the source of the firmware image. Once the download begins, a list of all of the files that make up the image is displayed and as the downloading progresses, the address of the file is updated.

• getfwrev a.b.cd *--loads firmware revision a.b.cd at all reachable nodes

• getfwrev a.b.cd nodename--loads firmware revision a.b.cd at one node only (nodename specifies the node).

• getfwrev 0.0.--clears a firmware revision image from NPC memory. Should be issued after every firmware download to clear the NPC memory.

Caution  This command is not to be confused with loadrev. It loads system software, not firmware.

loadcnf (Load Configuration)

The loadcnf command loads a configuration image from StrataView Plus to a node.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX, IPX/AF

Associated Commands

dspcnf, runcnf, savecnf

Syntax

Function

This command causes a saved network configuration file to be downloaded from StrataView Plus to one node or all nodes. (See savecnf.) The configuration image downloaded is temporarily stored in a buffer area in a node's controller card memory. The process runs in the background and may take several minutes if the configuration file is large. Although loaded, the configuration is not yet restored. The configuration is restored to the controller card's BRAM memory using the runcnf command.

After loading and restoring a network configuration, the control card buffer area used for this purpose should be cleared so it is available for other downloading processes, such as that of firmware. To clear the buffer area, execute loadcnf with the clear parameter specified instead of backup_id. Specify the buffer of an individual node with node_name or all nodes with *. For the purpose of clearing the buffer area, do not specify the source_SV_node parameter.

To execute this command on an IPX/AF interface shelf, telnet to the shelf or use a control terminal attached to the shelf.

loadrev (Load Revision)

The loadrev command loads a secondary system software revision image from StrataView or StrataView Plus into a node.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

runrev, dsprevs

Syntax

Function

This command loads the secondary revision system software for the specified nodes. The secondary revision system software is the code that is loaded onto a controller card but is not being run. Use the runrev command after loading of a revision is complete to make the secondary revision the primary revision. The previous primary revision then becomes the secondary.

Examples of this command:

• loadrev a.b.cd *--loads revision a.b.cd at all reachable nodes.

• loadrev a.b.cd nodename--loads revision a.b.cd at nodename only

• loadrev 0.0.--clears a software revision image from controller memory. This command should be issued after every software download to clear the controller memory.

After entering the command, system responds with: "Enter Rev Number:" The dsprevs command is used to observe the software revisions that are currently loaded into the controller memory. The dspdnld command is used to display a running picture of the status of the download procedure once it has commenced.

Caution  This command is not to be confused with getfwrev. It loads firmware, not system software.

prtcderrs (Print Card Errors)

The prtcderrs command prints out detailed card failure information.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: No Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

clrcderrs, dspcderrs

Syntax

Function

Prints a history of card failures associated with a specified slot on the network printer. If no argument is specified, a summary is printed, indicating the slots that have failures recorded against them. Refer to dspcderrs command for an example of a typical card error record that might be printed.

rrtcon (Reroute Connection)

The rrtcon command is used to manually reroute one or more connections.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

drtop

Syntax

Function

This command forces a group, channel or range of channels to be rerouted. If a free-routing connection is rerouted by the system for whatever reason, it will not automatically return to its original route when the trouble clears. This may leave the connection on a path that is not the most direct or cost effective.

This command can be used to force a reroute that will likely put the connection back to its original route if available. Over time, many routes may need to be rerouted back to their original paths. In this case, use the "*" to reroute all connections.

To use this command you must first vt to the node that owns the connection (local node). If not at the local node, the system displays "This node is not owner of the connection(s)".

There is no provision for specifying a route. The node determines the connection route according to the same rules that are used when adding a new connection. If there is no network bandwidth available to reroute the connection, the connection will be marked as failed.

Caution  Entering this command on a connection that is in service should be done with some discretion as the reroute will interrupt service for as long as it takes to reroute the connection.

rststats (Reset Statistics Collection TIme)

The rststats command resets the statistics collection time for the tststats command.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: No Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

tststats

Syntax

Function

This command resets the collection time for the tststats command. The tststats command displays a test statistics summary. Before there will be any meaningful statistics, the tstcon command must be performed on one or more network connections. Refer to the Command Reference for information on the tstcon command. Figure 1-88 illustrates the system response.

runcnf (Run Configuration)

The runcnf command restores a network configuration image at one or all nodes.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX, IPX/AF

Associated Commands

savecnf, loadcnf, clrcnf

Syntax

Function

This command restores the specified configuration to the controller card's BRAM memory and overwrites the current configuration. Once restored, the specified node (or all nodes) rebuilds with the restored configuration image. To execute this command on an IPX/AF interface shelf, telnet to the shelf or use a control terminal attached to the shelf.

This command is usually run after a previous configuration has been lost. If doubts exist about the state of the configuration at other nodes in the network, load the configuration into all nodes by specifying "*" for the node name. The new configuration must have previously been loaded into the controller buffer area with the loadcnf command.

Caution All network nodes must be run with the same configuration.

The system may display two warnings in response to the runcnf command:

A. When single node specified:

• Warning--node_name not reachable. Continue? Y/N.

• Warning--node_name does not have the specified configuration. Continue? Y/N.

B. When all nodes specified:

• Warning--all nodes not reachable. Continue? Y/N.

• Warning--all nodes do not have the specified configuration. Continue? Y/N.

If a single node is not reachable, responding with a "Y" does not affect the operation of the network. If node(s) do not all have the specified configuration or all are unreachable, it is not recommended that you continue until after the problem is resolved.

runrev (Run Revision)

The runrev command runs a specific revision of the system software revision at a node.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX

Associated Commands

dsprevs, loadrev

Syntax

Function

This command sets the primary revision for the specified nodes. The primary software revision is the one that is actively controlling node operation. A non-active secondary revision that does not match the primary revision may also be loaded in the controller. To set the primary software revision, enter:

• runrev a.b.cd *--to run revision a.b.cd at all reachable nodes.

  or
  

• runrev a.b.cd nodename--to run revision a.b.cd at a single node (nodename) only.

After entering the command, system responds with "Enter Rev Number". Use the dsprevs command to determine which rev(s), primary and secondary, are available on the node. The runrev command will be ignored if the required revision is not present on the node.

You may need to load the new revision onto the StrataView Plus terminal and then use loadrev command to download the new software image into the standby controller before you issue the runrev command. If you enter a revision number that does not exist at the node, the system displays the message

"Warning--the node does not have the specified revision. Continue? Y/N

Caution All network nodes must be run with the same software revision or abnormal network operation will be experienced.

If you respond "no", the system takes you back to the main StrataView Plus prompt and you have an opportunity to change the rev. number and make a second attempt to run the corrected revision.

savecnf (Save Configuration)

The savecnf command saves a configuration image on a StrataView Plus workstation disk.

Attributes

Jobs: Yes Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX, BPX, IPX/AF

Associated Commands

loadcnf, runcnf, clrcnf

Syntax

Function

The savecnf command has two possible applications. It saves all the configurations for the nodes in a routing network, or it saves the configuration of one IPX/AF interface shelf to a specific StrataView Plus workstation. Once saved, the configuration may be restored to BRAM using the loadcnf and runcnf commands. The savecnf command should be executed in the following situations:

• After making any configuration changes in a network

• Before upgrading to a new system software release

Execution on a Routing Node

In a routing network, savecnf saves a configuration image for one node or all routing nodes (node_name = *) on the StrataView Plus workstation specified by dest_SV_node.

Execution on an IPX/AF Interface Shelf

To execute savecnf on an IPX/AF, either telnet to the shelf or use a control terminal attached to it: savecnf saves a configuration image of only this IPX/AF. The image is stored on the workstation with the IP address in the parameter dest_SV_ip. (In a routing network, dest_SV_ip is not necessary.) Note that node_name and dest_SV_node must both be the name of the IPX/AF. The IP address of the destination StrataView Plus workstation uniquely identifies where to store the configuration image.

setfpevt (Set FastPAD Event Reporting)

The setfpevt command enables the reporting of FastPAD events.

Attributes

Jobs: No Log: Yes Lock: Yes Node Type: IPX, IGX

Associated Commands

clrfpevt, dsplog

Syntax

Function

Executing setfpevt restarts FastPAD event logging after you have stopped logging by using clrfpevt.

The reason for executing clrfpevt is to prevent the large number of logged events that accumulate when certain user-controlled disruptions occur. Without suspension of event-logging, the number of events caused by the disruption can cause the FastPAD to become unreachable. Examples of these events are:

• FTM Y-cable switchover

• NPM/NPC switchovers

• Adding a connection by using the addfrcons command

• Resetting the FastPAD (power cycling or by the resetfp command).

Example

setfpevt 9.3

Description

The example command resumes event logging for the FastPAD connected to port 9.3.
