This chapter describes the WE Service parameters, which relate to the WAN Extender system. For a description of the WAN Extender and instructions on how to configure a NETBuilder II bridge/router to use a WAN Extender, see the Configuring the NETBuilder II to use a WAN Extender chapter in Using Enterprise OS Software. For a description of ports and paths, and virtual paths, which apply to the WAN Extender, see the Configuring Basic Ports and Paths chapter and the Configuring Advanced Ports and Paths chapter in Using Enterprise OS Software.
Table 136 lists the WE Service parameters and commands.
Syntax
SHow [!<port>] -WE CONFiguration
No default
The CONFiguration parameter displays the current WAN Extender system and network configuration settings for the specified port as well as its local management interface (LMI) parameters and their settings. If no port is specified, then the configuration information for all ports (and their owners) are displayed in ascending order.
See the Configuring the NETBuilder II to use a WAN Extender chapter in Using Enterprise OS Software for a sample display generated with the CONFiguration parameter.
Syntax
SET !<port> -WE DevCONTrol = ReBoot [<sec_delay>]
No default
The DevCONTrol parameter reboots the WAN Extender device that is connected to the specified port.
Values
|
<port> |
Specifies the port that is connected to the device that is to be rebooted. |
|
<sec_delay> |
Specifies the amount of delay in seconds before the reboot occurs. |
Syntax
SHow [!<port>] -WE DevSTATistics
Flush !<port> -WE DevSTATistics
No default
The DevSTATistics parameter displays the connection and data packet statistics for the specified NETBuilder II port entered, for the WAN Extender connected to the port, and for the WAN Extender network ports. The statistics displayed are maintained by the WAN Extender.
See the Configuring the NETBuilder II to use a WAN Extender chapter in Using Enterprise OS Software for a sample display generated with the DevSTATistics parameter.
This parameter can only be entered as a UI command at a local console. This parameter is not available through the Scheduler or Remote commands.
Syntax
SETDefault !<port> -WE DialPathLimit = <64/56kbps path count>[<384kbps H0 path count>]
64/56 kbps path count = 60
H0 path count = 0
The default varies depending on how many channels a WAN Extender unit combined with a particular networking service can support (see Table 137).
The range of paths for the 64 kbps path is 0-60, and for the H0 path (384 kbps) the range is 0-3.
The DialPathLimit parameter limits the number of virtual paths that are available in the dial pool from the WAN Extender connected to the specified port. Settings for 64 kbps and H0 virtual paths can be entered for the same port.
If you have multiple WAN Extenders connected to the same NETBuilder II bridge/router and some ports are set up for dial-up virtual paths and others for channelized virtual paths, the DialPathLimit parameter must be set to a dial-up path count that considers the following:
Table 137 shows how many channels per port each WAN Extender model can support combined with different networking services.
You have two WAN Extender 2T models (two ports each) connected to the same NETBuilder II bridge/router. You configured one port of the first WAN Extender for channelized data connections using 20 virtual paths, and another 20 (64 kbps) virtual paths are set for dial-up for the other port of the first WAN Extender. You will have a total of 35 virtual paths to add for the ports of the second WAN Extender.
The following calculations show how many virtual paths are left to be added to the second WAN Extender ports:
Seventy-five virtual paths supported by the NETBuilder II bridge/router, minus 20 virtual paths for channelized connections, minus 20 virtual paths for dial-up equals 35 virtual paths that can be added by a second WAN Extender without running out.
Syntax
SETDefault !<port> -WE ErrorThreshold = (1 - 10)
SHowDefault !<port> -WE ErrorThreshold
3
The ErrorThreshold parameter sets the maximum number of unanswered Status Enquiry messages sent by the NETBuilder II bridge/router before shutting down the physical path associated with the port and removing all related virtual paths.
Syntax
SETDefault !<port> -WE FullStatusFreq = (1 - 255)
SHow !<port> -WE FullStatusFreq
SHowDefault !<port> -WE FullStatusFreq
6
Description
The FullStatusFreq parameter sets the number of KeepAlive intervals that pass before a Full Status Enquiry message is sent to the WAN Extender. See "KeepAliveInt"for a description of KeepAlive intervals.
Syntax
SETDefault !<port> -WE KeepAliveInt = (5 - 30)
SHow !<port> -WE KeepAliveInt
SHowDefault !<port> -WE KeepAliveInt
10
The KeepAliveInt parameter sets the amount of time (in seconds) between successive transmissions of Status Enquiry messages to the WAN Extender.
Syntax
SHow [!<port>] -WE ProFiles [<first PID> | <first PID> <last PID>] [STATistics | DETail]
SUMMary (neither STATistics or DETail are selected)
The ProFiles parameter retrieves information from the WAN Extender that is connected to the NETBuilder II port. The information describes the configuration and the incoming and outgoing calls made through the port.
See the Configuring the NETBuilder II to use a WAN Extender chapter in Using Enterprise OS Software for a sample display generated with the ProFiles parameter.
This parameter can only be entered as a UI parameter at a local console. This parameter is not available through the Scheduler or Remote commands.
