    Preface Preface This guide describes the Web-based user interface for ROX II v2.6 running on the RUGGEDCOM RX1500 family of products. It contains instructions and guidelines on how to use the software, as well as some general theory. It is intended for use by network technical support personnel who are familiar with the operation of networks. It is also recommended for use by network and system planners, system programmers, and line technicians.

  • Page 33: Introduction

    Welcome to the RUGGEDCOM ROX II (Rugged Operating System on Linux®) v2.6 User Guide for the RX1500. This document details how to configure the RX1500 via the ROX II Web interface. ROX II also features a Command Line Interface (CLI), which is described in a separate User Guide.
  • Page 34 Network Management System (NMS). A feature of SNMP supported by ROX II is the ability to generate traps upon system events. RUGGEDCOM NMS, the Siemens management solution, can record traps from multiple devices providing a powerful network troubleshooting tool. It also provides a graphical visualization of the network and is fully integrated with all Siemens products.
  • Page 35 RUGGEDCOM ROX II Chapter 1 User Guide Introduction • Broadcast Storm Filtering Broadcast storms wreak havoc on a network and can cause attached devices to malfunction. This could be disastrous on a network with mission critical equipment. ROX II limits this by filtering broadcast frames with a user-defined threshold.
  • Page 36 Chapter 1 RUGGEDCOM ROX II Introduction User Guide BGPv4 is a path-vector routing protocol where routing decisions are made based on the policies or rules laid out by the network administrator. It is typically used where networks are multi-homed between multiple Internet Service Providers, or in very large internal networks where internal gateway protocols do not scale sufficiently.
  • Page 37: Feature Keys

    Feature keys add features to an existing installation of ROX II. They can be purchased and installed at any time. Three feature keys are currently available: L2STD, L3STD and L3SEC. By default, each new RX1500/RX1501/ RX1510/RX1511/RX1512 is ordered with a base feature key, which is permanently installed on the device.
  • Page 38: Security Recommendations

    Configuration hazard – risk of data corruption. Maintenance mode is provided for troubleshooting purposes and should only be used by Siemens Canada Ltd. technicians. As such, this mode is not fully documented. Misuse of this maintenance mode commands can corrupt the operational state of the device and render it inaccessible.

It is a dynamic multicast routing protocol that can dynamically prune and maintain multicast routes. PIM relies on the router's unicast routing table for its capabilities and does not rely on any specific method for learning routes, therefore it is "Protocol Independent".

While STP is effective, it requires that frame transfer halt after a link outage until all bridges in the network are guaranteed to be aware of the new topology.
  • Page 727 RUGGEDCOM ROX II Chapter 5 User Guide Setup and Configuration The discarding state is entered when the port is first put into service.

The port becomes the alternate to the current Root Port and will become the new Root Port should the current Root Port fail. The Alternate Port does not participate in the network. A port is a Backup Port when it receives a better message from the LAN segment it is connected to, originating from another port on the same bridge.

    • When the age exceeds the value of the maximum age parameter the next bridge to receive the message immediately discards it.

    Chapter 5 RUGGEDCOM ROX II Setup and Configuration User Guide By design, MSTP processing time is proportional to the number of active STP instances.

    Chapter 5 RUGGEDCOM ROX II Setup and Configuration User Guide Role Description A Boundary Port connected to an STP bridge will send only STP BPDUs. One connected to an RSTP bridge need not refrain from sending MSTP BPDUs. This is made possible by the fact that the MSTP carries the CIST Regional Root Identifier in the field that RSTP parses as the Designated Bridge Identifier.

    Such a recovery time is difficult to calculate and can be different (and may be relatively long) for any given mesh topology. This configuration parameter enables Siemens's enhancement to RSTP, which detects a failure of the root switch and performs some extra RSTP processing steps, significantly reducing the network recovery time and making it deterministic.
