A combo interface is a logical interface that physically contains one fiber combo port and one copper combo port on the device panel. The two ports share one forwarding interface. As a result, they cannot work simultaneously. When you activate either port, the other port is automatically disabled. You can select to activate the copper combo port or fiber combo port.

For more information about the number of combo interfaces, see the installation guide.

Examples

# Activate the copper combo port of combo interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

[Sysname-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] combo enable copper

# Activate the fiber combo port of combo interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

flow-control

CAUTION:

Configuring generic flow control on an Ethernet interface will cause link-up and link-down events before the interface finally stays up.

Use flow-control to enable TxRx mode generic flow control on an Ethernet interface.

Use undo flow-control to disable generic flow control on the Ethernet interface.

Syntax

flow-control

undo flow-control

Default

Generic flow control is disabled on an Ethernet interface.

Views

Ethernet interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

To implement flow control on a link, enable the generic flow control function at both ends of the link.

TxRx mode generic flow control enables an Ethernet interface to perform the following actions:

· Receive common pause frames from its peer.

· Send common pause frames to notify its peer of congestions.

With the flow-control command configured, an interface can both send and receive flow control frames:

· When congested, the interface sends a flow control frame to its peer.

· Upon receiving a flow control frame from the peer, the interface suspends sending packets.

Examples

# Enable TxRx mode generic flow control on the interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

[Sysname-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] flow-control

flow-control receive enable

CAUTION:

Configuring generic flow control on an Ethernet interface will cause link-up and link-down events before the interface finally stays up.

Use flow-control receive enable to enable Rx mode generic flow control on an Ethernet port.

Use undo flow-control to disable generic flow control on an Ethernet interface.

Syntax

flow-control receive enable

undo flow-control

Default

Rx flow control is disabled on Ethernet interfaces.

Views

Ethernet interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

With the flow-control receive enable command configured, an interface can receive, but not send, flow control frames. When the interface receives a flow control frame from its peer, it suspends sending packets to the peer. When traffic congestion occurs on the interface, it cannot send flow control frames to the peer.

To handle unidirectional traffic congestion on a link, configure the flow-control receive enable command at one end, and the flow-control command at the other. To enable both ends of the link to handle traffic congestion, configure the flow-control command at both ends.

Examples

# Enable Rx mode generic flow control on GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

msec: Enables the physical state change suppression interval to be accurate to milliseconds. If you do not specify this keyword, the suppression interval is accurate to seconds.

delay-time: Sets the physical state change suppression interval on the Ethernet interface. A value of 0 indicates that physical state changes are immediately reported to the CPU and are not suppressed.

· If you do not specify the msec keyword, the value range for this argument is 0 to 30 seconds.

· If you specify the msec keyword, the value range for this argument is 0 to 10000 milliseconds, and the value must be a multiple of 100.

mode up: Suppresses the link-up events.

mode updown: Suppresses both the link-up and link-down events.

Usage guidelines

When the link-delay delay-time command is configured:

· The link-down event is not reported to the CPU unless the interface is still down when the suppression interval (delay-time) expires.

· The link-up event is immediately reported.

When the link-delay delay-time mode up command is configured:

· The link-up event is not reported to the CPU unless the interface is still up when the suppression interval (delay-time) expires.

· The link-down event is immediately reported.

When the link-delay delay-time mode updown command is configured:

· The link-down event is not reported to the CPU unless the interface is still down when the suppression interval (delay-time) expires.

· The link-up event is not reported to the CPU unless the interface is still up when the suppression interval (delay-time) expires.

On a port, if you configure the link-delay command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.

Do not configure this command on a port with RRPP, MSTP, or Smart Link enabled.

Examples

# Set the link-down event suppression interval to 8 seconds on interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

Parameters

external: Performs an external loopback test on the Ethernet interface.

internal: Performs an internal loopback test on the Ethernet interface.

Usage guidelines

If an Ethernet interface does not work correctly, you can perform a loopback test on it to identify the problem.

An Ethernet interface in a loopback test does not forward data traffic.

On an administratively shut down Ethernet interface (displayed as in ADM or Administratively DOWN state), you cannot perform an internal or external loopback test.

The speed, duplex, mdix-mode, and shutdown commands are not available during a loopback test.

During a loopback test, the Ethernet interface operates in full duplex mode. When the loopback test is complete, the port returns to its duplex setting.

Examples

# Perform an internal loopback test on GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

Usage guidelines

When the auto power-down function is enabled on an interface and the interface has been down for a certain period of time, both of the following events occur:

· The switch automatically stops supplying power to the interface.

· The interface enters the power save mode.

The time period depends on the chip specifications and is not configurable.

When the interface comes up, both of the following events occur:

· The switch automatically restores the power supply to the interface.

· The interface enters its normal state.

Parameters

auto: Specifies PFC in auto mode. In this mode, the Ethernet interface automatically negotiates the PFC status with its peer.

enable: Forcibly enables PFC.

Usage guidelines

If you enable PFC and configure the priority-flow-control no-drop dot1p dot1p-list command on both ends, the local port processes a received packet as follows when network congestion occurs:

· If PFC is enabled for the 802.1p priority carried in the packet, the local port perform the following tasks:

¡ Accepts the packet.

¡ Notifies the peer to stop sending packets carrying the 802.1p priority until the congestion is removed.

· If PFC is disabled for the 802.1p priority carried in the packet, the local port drops the packet.

Examples

# Configure GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to automatically negotiate with its peer to enable PFC.

Views

Ethernet interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

dot1p-list: Specifies an 802.1p priority (or dot1p priority) list to identify flows that are subject to PFC(for example: 1,3-5). A hyphen (-) connects two numeric values, which together indicate a continuous value range. Different values or value ranges are separated with commas (,). You can configure up to 16 characters for this argument.

Usage guidelines

You can enable PFC for certain 802.1p priorities at the two ends of a link. When network congestion occurs, the local device checks the PFC status for the 802.1p priority carried in each arriving packet. The device processes the packet depending on the PFC status as follows:

· If PFC is enabled for the 802.1p priority, the local device accepts the packet and sends a PFC pause frame to the peer. The peer stops sending packets carrying this 802.1p priority for an interval as specified in the PFC pause frame. This process is repeated until the congestion is removed.

· If PFC is disabled for the 802.1p priority, the local port drops the packet.

The relationship between the PFC function and the generic flow control function is shown in Table 7.

Views

Layer 2 Ethernet interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

ratio: Sets the broadcast suppression threshold as a percentage of the maximum interface rate. The value range for this argument is 0 to 100. The smaller the percentage, the less broadcast traffic is allowed to pass through.

pps max-pps: Specifies the maximum number of broadcast packets that the interface can forward per second. The value range for the max-pps argument (in pps) is 0 to 1.4881 × the maximum interface rate. For example, the value range for this argument is 0 to 1488100 on a GE interface and 0 to 29762000 on a 20-GE interface.

kbps max-kbps: Specifies the maximum number of kilobits of broadcast traffic that the Ethernet interface can forward per second. The value range for this argument (in kbps) is 0 to the maximum interface rate.

Usage guidelines

You can use the broadcast storm suppression function to limit the size of broadcast traffic on an interface. When the broadcast traffic on the interface exceeds this threshold, the system drops packets until the traffic drops below this threshold.

Both storm-constrain and broadcast-suppression can suppress broadcast storm on a port. The storm-constrain command uses software to suppress broadcast traffic, and it affects the device performance to a certain extent. The broadcast-suppression command uses the chip to physically suppress broadcast traffic, and it has less influence on the device performance than the storm-constrain command. Do not configure the storm constrain command and the broadcast-suppression command at the same time. Otherwise, the traffic suppression result is not determined.

When you configure the suppression threshold in kbps, the actual suppression threshold might be different from the configured one as follows:

· If the configured value is smaller than 64, the value of 64 takes effect.

· If the configured value is greater than 64 but not an integer multiple of 64, the integer multiple of 64 that is greater than and closest to the configured value takes effect.

To determine the suppression threshold that takes effect, see the prompts on the device.

ratio: Sets the multicast suppression threshold as a percentage of the maximum interface rate. The value range for this argument (in percentage) is 0 to 100. The smaller the percentage, the less multicast traffic is allowed to pass through.

pps max-pps: Specifies the maximum number of multicast packets that the interface can forward per second. The value range for the max-pps argument (in pps) is 0 to 1.4881 × the maximum interface rate. For example, the value range for this argument is 0 to 1488100 on a GE interface and 0 to 29762000 on a 20-GE interface.

kbps max-kbps: Specifies the maximum number of kilobits of multicast traffic that the Ethernet interface can forward per second. The value range for this argument (in kbps) is 0 to the maximum interface rate.

Usage guidelines

You can use the multicast storm suppression function to limit the size of multicast traffic on an interface. When the multicast traffic on the interface exceeds this threshold, the system drops packets until the traffic drops below this threshold.

Both the storm-constrain and multicast-suppression can suppress multicast storm on a port. The storm-constrain command uses software to suppress traffic, and it affects the device performance to a certain extent. The multicast-suppression command uses the chip to physically suppress multicast traffic, and it has less influence on the device performance than the storm-constrain command. Do not configure the storm constrain command and the multicast-suppression command at the same time. Otherwise, the traffic suppression result is not determined.

When you configure the suppression threshold in kbps, the actual suppression threshold might be different from the configured one as follows:

· If the configured value is smaller than 64, the value of 64 takes effect.

· If the configured value is greater than 64 but not an integer multiple of 64, the integer multiple of 64 that is greater than and closest to the configured value takes effect.

To determine the suppression threshold that takes effect, see the prompts on the device.

Examples

# Set the multicast storm suppression threshold to 10000 kbps on GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

[Sysname-GigabitEthernet1/0/1] multicast-suppression kbps 10000

The actual value is 10048 on port GigabitEthernet1/0/1 currently.

Usage guidelines

When a packet arrives at an interface, the device looks up the destination MAC address of the packet in the MAC address table. If an entry is found and the outgoing interface is the same as the incoming interface, the device drops the packet.

After you configure this command on the Ethernet interface, the device forwards such packets rather than drop them.

Examples

# Enable bridging on Layer 2 Ethernet interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

port up-mode

Use port up-mode to forcibly bring up a fiber port.

Use undo port up-mode to restore the default.

Syntax

port up-mode

undo port up-mode

Default

Fiber ports are not forcibly brought up. The physical state of the fiber port is determined by the physical state of the optical fibers.

Views

Ethernet interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Usage guidelines

CAUTION:

The following operations on a fiber port will cause link updown events before the port finally stays up:

· Configure the port up-mode command and the speed or duplex command at the same time.

· Install or remove fiber links or transceiver modules after you forcibly bring up the fiber port.

You can use this command to forcibly bring up a fiber Ethernet port, and enable the port to forward packets unidirectionally over a single link. In this way, transmission links are well utilized.

After you forcibly bring up an Ethernet fiber port, the fiber port stays physically up whether or not a transceiver module or fiber connections are present for the port.

Copper ports do not support this command.

The port up-mode command is mutually exclusive with either of the shutdown commands.

A GE fiber port cannot correctly forward traffic if you configure the port up-mode command on the port and install an electro-optical module, 100/1000-Mbps transceiver module, or 100-Mbps transceiver module into the port. To solve the problem, use the undo port up-mode command on the fiber port.

Examples

# Forcibly bring up the fiber port GigabitEthernet 1/0/1.

Parameters

all: Disables storm control for all types of packets: broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast.

broadcast: Enables or disables broadcast storm control.

known-unicast: Enables or disables known unicast storm control. This keyword is available in Release 1122 and later.

multicast: Enables or disables multicast storm control.

unicast: Enables or disables unknown unicast storm control.

pps: Sets storm control thresholds in pps.

kbps: Sets storm control thresholds in kbps.

ratio: Sets storm control thresholds as a percentage of the transmission capacity of the interface.

upperlimit: Sets the upper threshold, in pps, kbps, or percentage.

lowerlimit: Sets the lower threshold, in pps, kbps, or percentage.

Usage guidelines

After you configure this command, the device collects the statistics of a particular type of traffic at the specified interval, which can be configured by using the storm-constrain interval command. When a particular type of traffic exceeds its upper threshold, the interface takes a certain action, which can be configured by using the storm-constrain control command.

The storm-constrain, broadcast-suppression, multicast-suppression, and unicast-suppression commands can suppress storm on a port.

· The storm-constrain command uses software to suppress traffic, and affects the device performance to a certain extent.

· The broadcast-suppression, multicast-suppression, and unicast-suppression commands use the chip to physically suppress traffic, and have less influence on the device performance than the storm-constrain command.

On the same type of traffic, do not configure the storm constrain command and either of the broadcast-suppression, multicast-suppression, and unicast-suppression commands at the same time. Otherwise, the traffic suppression result is not determined.

When configuring this command, make sure upperlimit is greater than lowerlimit.

Parameters

block: Blocks this type of traffic, while forwarding other types of traffic. Even though the interface does not forward the blocked traffic, it still counts the traffic. When the blocked traffic is detected dropping below the lower threshold, the port begins to forward the traffic.

shutdown: Shuts down automatically. The interface shuts down automatically and stops forwarding any traffic. When the blocked traffic is detected dropping below the lower threshold, the port does not forward the traffic. To bring up the interface, use the undo shutdown command or disable the storm control function.

Parameters

ratio: Sets the unicast suppression threshold as a percentage of the maximum interface rate. The value range for this argument (in percentage) is 0 to 100. The smaller the percentage, the less unicast traffic is allowed to pass through.

pps max-pps: Specifies the maximum number of unicast packets that the interface can forward per second. The value range for the max-pps argument (in pps) is 0 to 1.4881 × the maximum interface rate. For example, the value range for the argument is 0 to 1488100 on a GE interface and 0 to 29762000 on a 20-GE interface.

kbps max-kbps: Specifies the maximum number of kilobits of unicast traffic that the Ethernet interface can forward per second. The value range for this argument (in kbps) is 0 to the maximum interface rate.

Usage guidelines

You can use the unicast storm suppression function to limit the size of unicast traffic on an interface. When the unicast traffic on the interface exceeds this threshold, the system discards packets until the unicast traffic drops below this threshold.

Both the storm-constrain and unicast-suppression can suppress unicast storm on a port.

· The storm-constrain command uses software to suppress unicast traffic, and it affects the device performance to a certain extent.

· The unicast-suppression command use the chip to physically suppress unicast traffic, and it has less influence on the device performance than the storm-constrain command.

Do not configure the storm constrain command and the unicast-suppression command at the same time. Otherwise, the unicast traffic suppression result is not determined.

When you configure the suppression threshold in kbps, the actual suppression threshold might be different from the configured one as follows:

· If the configured value is smaller than 64, the value of 64 takes effect.

· If the configured value is greater than 64 but not an integer multiple of 64, the integer multiple of 64 that is greater than and closest to the configured value takes effect.

To determine the suppression threshold that takes effect, see the prompts on the device.

Use mtu to set the MTU for an Ethernet interface.

Use undo mtu to restore the default.

Syntax

mtu size

undo mtu

Default

The MTU of an Ethernet interface is 1500 bytes.

Views

Layer 3 Ethernet interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

Parameters

size: Sets the maximum transmission unit (MTU) in bytes. In Release 1118P02, the value range is 128 to 1560 bytes. In Release 1122 and later, the value range is 46 to 9216 bytes.

Usage guidelines

The configured MTU takes effect only on the packets forwarded by the CPU. To avoid unnecessary fragmentation, set a proper MTU value.

If an interface supports both the mtu and ip mtu commands, the device fragments an IPv4 packet based on the MTU set by using the ip mtu command. For more information about the ip mtu command, see Layer 3—IP Services Command Reference.
