4.6.1 Introduction

Switch-to-Switch Protocol (SSP) is a protocol specified in the DLSw standard that routers use to establish DLSw connections, locate resources, forward data, and handle flow control and error recovery.

SSP provides encapsulation on TCP/IP and makes use of the reliable data transmission of TCP/IP between DLSw peers.

dlsw local-peer [ biu-segment bprder cost group init-pacing-window keepalive lf passive peer-id promisecuous] – Define dlsw local peer

dlsw remote-peer list tcp ip address [ backup cost dmac-output-list dynamic inactivity keepalive lf linger lsap-output-list no-llc passive priority tcp-queue-max timeout ] – Define TCP encapsulation on DLSw Remote peer

dlsw bridge-group– link DLSw to the bridge group

dlsw timers [connect-timeout explorer-delay-time explorer-wait-time icannotreach-block-time local-connect-timeout sna-cache-timeout sna-explorer-timeout sna-group-cache sna-retry-interval sna-verify-interval]define

the dlsw timers

Encapsulation sdlc – encapsulation type to sdlc

sdlc address – assign the secondary stations attached to primary station sdlc holdq – set max number of packet hold in queue

sdlc k – set the local window size

sdlc n1 –set the max size of incoming frame

sdlc n2 - Set the number of times a Cisco IOS software will retry an operation that has timed out

sdlc ip-subnet– specify IP subnet

sdlc partner - Specify the destination address with which an LLC session is established for the SDLC station
