Usage guidelines

IMPORTANT:

This feature introduces low possibility of forwarding traffic on the inactive member interface while the system is operating correctly. Make sure you understand this impact on your services when you use this feature.

This feature enables faster traffic switchover between Reth member interfaces than the standard switchover mechanism of Reth when the master device is powered off or reboots unexpectedly.

This feature implements fast switchover by allowing the inactive member interface to forward packets. In rare cases, the neighbor device might learn MAC address entries on the link connected to the inactive interface and sends traffic to the inactive interface.

For this feature to take effect and operate effectively, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

· Make sure the Reth member interfaces are physical interfaces.

· Enable fast switchover on both the Reth interface for uplink traffic and the Reth interface for downlink traffic.

· Assign the downlink and uplink Reth interfaces to a redundancy group.

· Make sure the high-priority Reth member interfaces are on the master device (high-priority redundancy group node).

· To minimize the chance of receiving traffic on the inactive interface, use the arp timer aging command on the neighbor device to shorten the ARP entry aging timer.

Examples

# Enable fast traffic switchover on Reth 1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface reth 1

[Sysname-Reth1] fast-switch enable

Parameters

interface-number: Specifies a Reth interface by its number. The value range for this argument is 1 to 255.

Usage guidelines

A Reth interface is a virtual Layer 3 interface that uses two member interfaces to ensure link availability.

To create a Reth subinterface, create the Reth interface first.

You cannot create subinterfaces for a Reth interface in any of the following situations:

· The members of the Reth interface are Layer 3 Ethernet subinterfaces or Layer 3 aggregate subinterfaces.

· A minimum of one subinterface is created on the member interfaces of the Reth interface.

You cannot delete a Reth interface if it has member interfaces.

Examples

# Create Reth 1 and enter its view.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface reth 1

[Sysname-Reth1]

# Create Reth 1.1 and enter its view.

<Sysname> system-view

member interface

Use member interface to assign a member interface to a Reth interface.

Use undo member interface to remove a member interface from a Reth interface.

Syntax

undo member interface interface-type interface-number

Default

A Reth interface does not have member interfaces.

Views

Reth interface view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

context-admin

Parameters

interface-type interface-number: Specifies an interface by its type and number.

The interface can be any of the following interfaces and their subinterfaces:

· Layer 3 Ethernet interfaces.

· Layer 3 aggregate interfaces.

priority: Specifies an interface priority in the range of 1 to 255. The higher the value, the higher the interface priority.

Usage guidelines

You can assign a maximum of two member interfaces to a Reth interface. An interface can belong to only one Reth interface.

As a best practice, assign interfaces of the same type and same speed to a Reth interface.

If both member interfaces of a Reth interface are subinterfaces, make sure they are on different main interfaces and terminate the same VLAN ID. For more information about VLAN termination, see Layer 2—LAN Switching Configuration Guide.

When the two member interfaces of a Reth interface are up, the system chooses the interface with the higher priority as the active interface to forward packet. The interface with the lower priority is inactive and cannot forward packets.

You cannot assign subinterfaces or interfaces that have subinterfaces to a Reth interface if the Reth interface has Reth subinterfaces.

Do not specify a Reth interface as the outgoing interface in IPv6 static neighbor entries if its member interfaces contain subinterfaces. For more information about IPv6 static neighbor entries, see Layer 3—IP Services Configuration Guide.

Examples

# Assign GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 and GigabitEthernet 1/0/2 to Reth 1, and set their priority to 100 and 50, respectively.

Parameters

size: Specifies the MTU in bytes. The value range for this argument is 46 to 8192.

Usage guidelines

The MTU size of a Reth interface or subinterface affects the fragmentation and reassembly of IP packets on the interface or subinterface.

For the configured MTU size to take effect, execute the shutdown command, and then the undo shutdown command on the interface.

Examples

# Set the MTU to 200 bytes for Reth 1.

Predefined user roles

network-admin

context-admin

Parameters

times: Specifies the number of retransmissions, in the range of 5 to 30.

seconds: Specifies the interval for retransmitting the advertisement messages, in the range of 1 to 10 seconds.

Usage guidelines

After you configure this command, a Reth interface performs the following operations when a Reth member interface switchover occurs on it:

1. Sends advertisement messages (including gratuitous ARP messages and NA messages) to neighbors immediately.

2. Retransmits the advertisement messages according to the number of retransmissions and the retransmission interval you have configured.

If a Reth interface has subinterfaces, the subinterfaces also send advertisement messages upon a Reth member interface switchover. To save CPU resources, this command takes effect only on Reth interfaces. Reth subinterfaces are not controlled by this command.

Examples

# Configure Reth interfaces to retransmit advertisement messages to neighbors ten times at an interval of 5 seconds after a Reth member interface switchover.

This command is resource intensive. When you use this command, make sure you fully understand its impact on system performance.

After you execute this command, the device periodically refreshes subinterface rate statistics for the Reth interface. The statistics is displayed in the Last 300 seconds input rate and Last 300 seconds output rate fields of the command output from the display interface reth command.

Examples

# Enable subinterface rate statistics collection on Reth 1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface reth 1

[Sysname-Reth1] sub-interface rate-statistic

bind slot

Use bind slot to bind a redundancy group node to an IRF member device.

Use undo bind slot to remove the binding between a redundancy group node and an IRF member device.

Syntax

bind slot slot-number

undo bind slot

Default

A redundancy group node is not bound to an IRF member device.

Predefined user roles

network-admin

context-admin

Parameters

slot-number: Specifies an IRF member device by its member ID.

Usage guidelines

You can create only one-to-one bindings between redundancy group nodes and IRF member devices.

The node in a binding can use interfaces of the bound IRF member device as members. Member interfaces on one node of a redundancy group back up the member interfaces on the other node.

You cannot change the binding for a node if the node has member interfaces.

Examples

# Bind node 1 in redundancy group aaa to IRF member device 1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] redundancy group aaa

[Sysname-redundancy-group-aaa] node 1

[Sysname-redundancy-group-aaa-node1] bind slot 1

Table 6 Command output

Field	Description
Priority	Priority of the node.
Status	Node status: · Primary—The primary node. It can forward packets. · Secondary—The secondary node. When the high-priority node acts as the secondary node, all its member interfaces are shut down by the Reth module and cannot forward packets. When the low-priority node acts as the secondary node, all its member interfaces can forward packets.
Track weight	Weight of the node.
Preempt delay time remained	Remaining preemption delay time in minutes.
Preempt delay timer setting	Configured preemption delay timer in minutes.
Remaining hold-down time	Remaining hold-down time in seconds.
Hold-down timer setting	Configured hold-down timer in seconds.
Manual switchover request	Manual switchover request: · Yes—A request is issued. · No—No request is issued.
Member interfaces	Reth interfaces in the redundancy group.
Node 1	Detailed information about the redundancy group node.
Node member	Member interfaces on the redundancy group node.
Physical status	Physical status of the member interfaces on the node: · Down (redundancy down)—The interface is shut down by the Reth module. · Down—The interface is administratively up but physically down possibly because no physical link is present or the link has failed. · UP—The interface is both administratively and physically up.
Track info	Information about the track entries associated with the node.
Track	Track entry number.
Status	Track entry status. For the high-priority node, the first track entry that changed to NotReady or Negative state is identified as Faulty.
Reduced weight	Weight decrement rate of the node.
Interface	The interface excluded from the shutdown action by the Reth module. Absent indicates that the interface does not exist.

hold-down-interval

Use hold-down-interval to set the hold-down timer for a redundancy group.

Use undo hold-down-interval to restore the default.

Syntax

hold-down-interval second

undo hold-down-interval

Default

The hold-down timer is 1 second for a redundancy group.

Views

Predefined user roles

network-admin

context-admin

Parameters

second: Specifies the hold-down timer in the range of 0 to 1800 seconds.

Usage guidelines

Set the hold-down timer to prevent frequent switchovers. The hold-down timer specifies the minimum interval between two switchovers. This timer starts when a switchover is finished. The redundancy group can perform another switchover only after the hold-down timer expires.

Examples

# Set the hold-down timer to 300 seconds for redundancy group aaa.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] redundancy group aaa

[Sysname-redundancy-group-aaa] hold-down-interval 300

member interface

Use member interface to assign a Reth interface to a redundancy group.

Use undo member interface to remove a Reth interface from a redundancy group.

Syntax

member interface reth interface-number [ quick-fallback ]

undo member interface reth interface-number

Default

A redundancy group does not contain Reth interfaces.

Views

Redundancy group view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

context-admin

Parameters

reth interface-number: Specifies a Reth interface by its number. The Reth interface must exist.

quick-fallback: Enables quick fallback for the Reth interface. If quick fallback is enabled on a Reth interface, only the protocol state of the higher-priority member interface is set to down when it becomes inactive. The high-priority member interface is still physically up. When this feature is disabled on a Reth interface, both the physical state and protocol state of the inactive member interface are set to down. As a best practice, enable this feature if the preemption delay timer is set in seconds.

Usage guidelines

You can assign a Reth interface to only one redundancy group.

A redundancy group can contain a maximum of 32 Reth interfaces.

Examples

# Assign Reth 1 to redundancy group aaa.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] redundancy group aaa

[Sysname-redundancy-group-aaa] member interface reth 1

node

Use node to create a redundancy group node and enter its view, or enter the view of an existing redundancy group node.

Use undo node to remove a redundancy group node.

Syntax

node node-id

undo node node-id

Default

No redundancy group nodes exist.

Views

context-admin

Parameters

node-id: Specifies a redundancy group node ID in the range of 1 to 2.

Usage guidelines

You can create a maximum of two nodes for a redundancy group. One is the primary node, and the other is the secondary node.

Before you delete a redundancy group node, you must remove the binding between the node and its IRF member device.

Examples

# Create node 1 for redundancy group aaa.

Predefined user roles

network-admin

context-admin

Parameters

interface-type interface-number: Specifies a physical interface by its type and number. The interface must belong to the IRF member device that is bound to the node.

Usage guidelines

Before you assign physical Ethernet interfaces to a redundancy group node, you must use the bind slot command to bind the node to an IRF member device.

The physical Ethernet interfaces cannot be members of Reth interfaces.

An interface can be assigned to only one redundancy group node.

Examples

# Assign GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 to node 1 of redundancy group aaa.

<Sysname> system-view

preempt-delay

Use preempt-delay to set the preemption delay timer for a redundancy group.

Use undo preempt-delay to restore the default.

Syntax

preempt-delay seconds sec

undo preempt-delay

Default

The preemption delay timer is 1 minute (60 seconds) for a redundancy group.

Views

Predefined user roles

network-admin

context-admin

Parameters

seconds sec: Specifies the preemption delay timer in the range of 0 to 720 seconds.

Usage guidelines

The preemption delay timer specifies the delay before a switchover to the high-priority node occurs after the switchover is triggered. The delay allows the system to process events (such as interface state changes) required for the switchover.

If you set the preemption delay timer to 0, automatic switchover to the high-priority node is disabled. You can perform only manual switchover.

Examples

# Set the preemption delay timer to 120 seconds for redundancy group aaa.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] redundancy group aaa

[Sysname-redundancy-group-aaa] preempt-delay seconds 120

priority

Use priority to set the priority of a redundancy group node.

Use undo priority to restore the default.

Syntax

priority priority

undo priority

Default

The priority of a redundancy group node is 1.

Views

Parameters

priority: Specifies the priority in the range of 1 to 255. The higher the value, the higher the priority.

Usage guidelines

By default, the high-priority node is the primary node, and the low-priority node is the secondary node. If both nodes have the same priority, the lower-numbered node is the primary node.

Examples

# Set the priority to 3 for node 1 of redundancy group aaa.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] redundancy group aaa

[Sysname-redundancy-group-aaa] node 1

[Sysname-redundancy-group-aaa-node1] priority 3

redundancy group

Usage guidelines

This command enables SNMP notifications for the following events:

· A manual switchover is performed.

· An interface goes down.

· A faulty interface is recovered.

For redundancy group event notifications to be sent correctly, you must also configure SNMP on the device. For more information about SNMP configuration, see the network management and monitoring configuration guide for the device.

Examples

# Enable SNMP notifications for redundancy groups.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] snmp-agent trap enable rddc

switchover request

Parameters

track-entry-number: Specifies a track entry by its number in the range of 1 to 1024.

reduced weight-reduced: Specifies the weight decrement rate in the range of 1 to 255. The default is 255.

interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies an interface by its type and number. The interface will be excluded from the shutdown action by the Reth module. If you do not specify this option, no interface is excluded from the shutdown action by the Reth module. You must specify the tracked interface for this option if the interface has one of the following roles:

· Member of the redundancy group.

· Member of a Reth interface in the redundancy group.

Usage guidelines

You can associate a maximum of 64 track entries with a redundancy group node.

As a best practice, associate a redundancy group node with an existing track entry. If the track entry does not exist, a switchover might occur.

Do not exclude a subinterface from the shutdown action if both the subinterface and its main interface have one of the following roles on the high-priority node:

· Member of the redundancy group.

· Member of a Reth interface in the redundancy group.

When the Reth module shuts down the main interface, the subinterface is also shut down. The shutdown subinterface cannot recover automatically to trigger an automatic switchover.

Examples

# Associate track entries 1 and 2 with redundancy group node 1. Exclude GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 and GigabitEthernet 1/0/2 from the shutdown action by the Reth module.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] track 1 interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1

[Sysname] track 2 interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2

[Sysname] redundancy group aaa

[Sysname-redundancy-group-aaa] node 1
