Chapter 3 Bringing Up the Cisco IOS XR Software on a Multishelf System

Configuring the External Cisco Catalyst 6509 Switches

Step 22

Command or Action

Purpose

 

 

switchport access vlan 1

(Optional) Assigns ports to VLAN 1, which is the

 

default selection.

Example:

 

router(config-if)# switchport access vlan 1

 

 

 

end

Exits interface configuration mode and returns to global

 

configuration mode.

Example:

 

router(config-if)# end

 

 

 

Repeat Step 16 through Step 20 for all interfaces.

Configures remaining interfaces.

 

Repeat this configuration for each port, including

 

ports that are not currently being used (for example,

 

interface gigabitethernet 0/1).

 

 

Repeat all steps for the second switch.

Configures a second switch for redundancy.

 

 

Example: Single-FCC Multishelf System Configuration

 

 

 

Note

When configuring the Catalyst 6509 switches, the difference between configuring single-, two-, and

 

 

 

 

four-FCC multishelf systems is the number of interfaces that require configuration. When additional

 

 

 

 

FCCs are present, additional interfaces must be configured for the connections to those FCCs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

First Catalyst Switch Configuration:

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1# configure

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)# spanning-tree

portfast default

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)# spanning-tree

mode mst

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)#no spanning-tree optimize bpdu transmission

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)# spanning-tree

mst configuration

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config-mst)# name STP_1

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config-mst)# revision 1

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config-mst)# instance 1 vlan 1

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config-mst)# end

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)# spanning-tree

mst hello-time 1

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)# spanning-tree

mst forward-time 6

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)# spanning-tree

mst max-age 8

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)# spanning-tree

mst max-hops 4

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)# spanning-tree

mst 0-1 priority 0

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)# udld aggressive

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)#udld message time 7

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config)#interface gigabitethernet 0/1

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config-if)# switchport

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config-if)# switchport

mode access

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config-if)# switchport

access vlan 1

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-1(config-if)# end

 

 

 

 

 

 

Second Catalyst Switch Configuration:

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-2# configure

 

 

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-2(config)# spanning-tree

portfast default

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-2(config)# spanning-tree

mode mst

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-2(config)#no spanning-tree optimize bpdu transmission

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-2(config)# spanning-tree

mst configuration

 

 

 

 

CAT6k-2(config-mst)# name STP_1
