 ====== Extreme Networks  ====== ====== Extreme Networks  ======
 +{{:extreme.png|}}
  
  
 +===== Hardware =====
 +
 +    * BlackDiamond: Chassis-based high-port density switches for Carrier-Ethernet service providers and enterprise core
 +    * Summit: Standalone switches from L2 100Mbps to L3 10Gig top-of-rack datacenter switches.
 +    * ReachNXT: Port Extender - Manageable by an access switch via XOS
 +    * SummitWM: Wireless controllers
 +    * Altitude: Wireless Access Points
 +    * Sentriant NG: Intrusion Protection System (IPS)
 +    * Sentriant AG: Network Access Controller (NAC)
 +
 + 
 +===== Software =====
 +
 +    * ExtremeWare is VxWorks based = first generation of Extreme networks operating system
 +    * ExtremeXOS = 2nd Generation OS based on Linux kernel and BusyBox
 +    * EPICenter = Network Management Tool
 +
 + 
 +===== Configuration =====
 +
 +Switch CLI prompt is driven from SNMP host name value \\
 +
 +Space bar to go to BootROM: for return to factory default configuration: ''config none'' \\
 +
 +**Extreme FDB** = Forwarding Database for MAC addresses - 300 Sec Aging timer per MAC \\
 +
 +==== IP FDB (L3) for IP forwarding ====
 +<code>
 +    show iparp
 +    show fdb
 +    create fdbentry
 +    delete fdbentry
 +    disable learning
 +    enable learning
 +</code>
 +
 +   # configure ports 1 vlan accounting unlimited-learnings
 +   # configure ports 1 vlan accounting learning-limit 3 (use aging timer also) (only for dynamic entries)
 +
 +**Lock-learning (sticky mac)** 
 +<code>
 +# configure ports 1 vlan VLAN1 lock-learning 
 +# configure ports 1 vlan VLAN1 unlock-learning
 +    show vlan default security
 +</code>
 + 
 +
 +==== ELSM (Extreme Link Status monitoring) ====
 +gets link status from other-end
 +<code>
 +    enable elsm ports
 +    disable elsm ports
 +    configure elsm ports
 +    clear elsm ports
 +</code>
 +
 +==== VLANs ====
 +
 +   1. Port-based
 +   2. 802.1Q Tagged VLAN
 +   3. Protocol-based VLAN
 +<code>
 +              create vlan vlan_name
 +              delete vlan vlan_name
 +              configure vlan vlan_name add ports
 +              configure vlan vlan_name delete ports
 +              disable vlan vlan_name
 +              enable vlan vlan_name
 +              configure vlan vlan_name tag <tag_value>
 +              configure vlan default delete port 7
 +              configure vlan ENGINEERING add port 7 untagged
 +              configure vlan ENGINEERING add ports 2,3 tagged
 +              show vlan ENGINEERING 
 +              BPDU –> vlan0
 +</code>
 + 
 +
 +==== Port Sharing (Aggregation) LAG ====
 +
 +    enable sharing 1 grouping 1-4 algorithm address-based lacp
 +    show port sharing
 +
 + 
 +
 +==== Port Settings ====
 +
 +
 +   enable lldp port all
 +   show ports configuration no-refresh
 +   enable jumbo-frame ports all
 +   show vlan VLAN1 security
 +
 +    * spanning-tree is disabled by default
 +    * EMI-STP Encapsulation - Extreme Multi Instance Spanning Tree - VST+ additional header
 +
 + 
 +
 +==== EAPS - Ethernet Automatic Protection Switching (Ring) ====
 +
 +
 +    * Ring Topology
 +    * L2 Protocol - Multicast MAC
 +    * EAPS version 2 (advanced feature - EAPS shared port for preventing superloop)
 +    * 50 ms failover
 +    * Device Roles: Master node, Transit nodes
 +    * Primary/secondary port on each switch
 +    * Master blocks its secondary port
 +    * Control VLAN and Protected VLAN (one Control VLAN per EAPS domain)
 +    * EAPS flush FDB when there's a topology change
 +
 +<code>
 +        create vlan control_vlan_name 
 +   configure vlan control_vlan_name tag vlan_tag 
 +   configure vlan control_vlan_name add port <primary.secondary> tagged
 +        create eaps <name>
 +        configure eaps <name> mode master|transit
 +        configure eaps <name> primary port <port number>
 +        configure eaps <name> secondary port <port number>
 +        configure eaps <name> add control vlan control_vlan_name
 +        configure eaps <name> add protect vlan <name>
 +        enable eaps
 +        enable eaps <name>

 +    * By default is disabled
 +          enable ipforwarding
 +          configure iproute add x.x.x.x/x y.y.y.y
 +          show ipconfig

 +    enable ospf
 +    show ospf
 +    show ospf area 0.0.0.0
 +    show ospf neighbors
 +    show ospf lsdb
 +
 +    * Redistribution is disabled and is configurable by policy files.
 +    * Core license required for OSPF DR/BDR function.
 +    * on edge / advanced edge license: we can not have DRs so priority:0
 +
 +
 +==== ESRP ====
 +
 +
 +Extreme Standby Routing Protocol - ESRP is extreme protocol for redundancy something like VRRP
 +
 + 
 +==== QOS ====
 +
 +    * No much QOS support
 +    * Traffic shaping is called metering
 +    * 8 queue per interface
 +    * Queue 1 and 8 are used by default (2q)
 +
 +
 +==== Useful hints ====
 +
 +=== Password Recovery procedure ===
  
-===== Password Recovery procedure ===== 
 {{extrememenu.gif|}} {{extrememenu.gif|}}
   - reboot & press spacebar   - reboot & press spacebar
Line 11: Line 206:
   - After your Extreme switch resets and you are prompted with a login enter in **''admin''**, hit enter twice entering a blank password at the password prompt.   - After your Extreme switch resets and you are prompted with a login enter in **''admin''**, hit enter twice entering a blank password at the password prompt.
