Type of probe. Must be one of the following:

  • echo --Uses Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo (ping) messages.
  • jitter --Uses jitter messages.
  • tcp-conn --Uses TCP connection messages.
  • udp-echo --Uses User Datagram Protocol (UDP) echo messages.

ip-address

Target IP address of a prefix to be monitored using the specified type of probe.

target-port

(Not specified for echo probes.) Specifies the destination port number for the active probe. A remote responder must be configured on the target device with the ip sla monitor responder global configuration command.

Note    The ip sla monitor responder command was introduced in Cisco IOS Release 12.3(14)T. This command replaces the rtr responder command.

Usage Guidelines

Cisco IOS Release 15.0(1)M, 12.2(33)SRE, and Later Releases

If the optional dscp keyword and value argument are not specified, active probes are created using the DSCP value of the traffic class. For example, the software creates two sets of probes for the following three traffic classes. Traffic class 2 is assigned a probe with a DSCP value of "ef" and the other two traffic classes share a probe with a DSCP value of 0.

  • Traffic class 1: 10.1.1.0/24, destination port 23
  • Traffic class 2: 10.1.2.0/24, dscp ef
  • Traffic class 3: 10.1.2.0/24, destination port 991

If the optional dscp keyword and value argument is provided, probes are created using the specified DSCP value. For example, if the DSCP value specified for the set active-probe command is "cs1", only one probe is created for the three traffic classes.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure an ICMP reply (ping) message probe with a forced target assignment within an OER map. The 10.1.2.10 address is the forced target assignment. A remote responder must also be enabled on the target device.

Router(config)# oer-map MAP1 10
Router(config-oer-map)# match ip prefix-list LIST1
Router(config-oer-map)# set active-probe echo 10.1.2.10 

The following example shows how to configure a TCP connection message probe with a forced target assignment within an PfR map. The 10.1.2.10 address is the forced target assignment, the target port is defined as 29, and the DSCP value is set to ef. A remote responder must be enabled on the target device. This example requires Cisco IOS Release 15.0(1)M, 12.2(33)SRE, or a later release.

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The set backoff command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command is used to configure an OER map to set the transition period that the master controller holds an out-of-policy prefix. The master controller uses a backoff timer to schedule the prefix transition period in which OER holds the out-of-policy prefix before moving the prefix to an in-policy state by selecting an in-policy exit. This command is configured with a minimum and maximum timer value and can be configured with an optional step timer.

Minimum Timer --The min-timer argument is used to set the minimum transition period in seconds. If the current prefix is in-policy when this timer expires, no change is made and the minimum timer is reset to the default or configured value. If the current prefix is out-of-policy, OER will move the prefix to an in-policy and reset the minimum timer to the default or configured value.

Maximum Timer --The max-timer argument is used to set the maximum length of time OER holds an out-of-policy prefix when there are no OER controlled in-policy prefixes. If all OER controlled prefixes are in an out-of-policy state and the value from the max-timerargument expires, OER will select the best available exit and reset the minimum timer to the default or configured value.

Step Timer --The step-timer argument allows you to optionally configure OER to add time each time the minimum timer expires until the maximum time limit has been reached. If the maximum timer expires and all OER managed exits are out-of-policy, OER will install the best available exit and reset the minimum timer.

Configuring a new timer value will immediately replace the existing value if the new value is less than the time remaining. If the new value is greater than the time remaining, the new timer value will be used when the existing timer value expires.

Examples

The following example creates an OER map named BACKOFF that sets the minimum timer to 400 seconds, the maximum timer to 4000 seconds, and the step timer to 400 seconds for traffic from the prefix list named CUSTOMER:

Router(config)# oer-map BACKOFF 70 
Router(config-oer-map)# match ip address prefix-list CUSTOMER 
Router(config-oer-map)# set backoff 400 4000 400

12.3(8)T

This command was introduced.

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The set delay command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command is configured in an OER map to set the delay threshold as a relative percentage or as an absolute value for match criteria.

The relative keyword is used to configure a relative delay percentage. The relative delay percentage is based on a comparison of short-term and long-term measurements. The short-term measurement reflects the delay percentage within a 5-minute time period. The long-term measurement reflects the delay percentage within a 60-minute period. The following formula is used to calculate this value:

Relative delay measurement = ((short-term measurement - long-term measurement) / long-term measurement) * 100

The master controller measures the difference between these two values as a percentage. If the percentage exceeds the user-defined or default value, the delay percentage is determined to be out-of-policy. For example, if long-term delay measurement 100 milliseconds and short-term delay measurement is 120 milliseconds, the relative delay percentage is 20 percent.

The threshold keyword is used to configure the absolute maximum delay period in milliseconds.

If the measured delay of the prefix is higher than the configured delay threshold, then the prefix is out-of-policy. If the short-term delay of the prefix is more than long-term delay by the percentage value configured, then the prefix is out-of-policy.

Examples

The following example creates an OER map named DELAY that sets the absolute maximum delay threshold to 2000 milliseconds for traffic from the prefix list named CUSTOMER:

Router(config)# oer-map DELAY 80 
Router(config-oer-map)# match ip address prefix-list CUSTOMER
 
Router(config-oer-map)# set delay threshold 2000

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The set holddown command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command is used to configure the prefix route dampening timer for the minimum period of time in which a new exit must be used before an alternate exit can be selected. The master controller puts a prefix in a holddown state during an exit change to isolate the prefix during the transition period, preventing the prefix from flapping because of rapid state changes. OER does not implement policy changes while a prefix is in the holddown state. A prefix will remain in a holddown state for the default or configured time period. When the holddown timer expires, OER will select the best exit based on performance and policy configuration. However, an immediate route change will be triggered if the current exit for a prefix becomes unreachable.

Configuring a new timer value will immediately replace the existing value if the new value is less than the time remaining. If the new value is greater than the time remaining, the new timer value will be used when the existing timer is reset.

Examples

The following example creates an OER map named HOLDDOWN that sets the holddown timer to 120 seconds for traffic from the prefix list named CUSTOMER:

Router(config)# oer-map HOLDDOWN 10 
Router(config-oer-map)# match ip address prefix-list CUSTOMER

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The set interface command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command can be used for OER black hole filtering if the border routers detect a denial-of-service (DoS) attack by directing packets to the null interface. The null interface is a virtual network interface that is similar to the loopback interface. Whereas traffic to the loopback interface is directed to the router itself, traffic sent to the null interface is discarded. This interface is always up and can never forward or receive traffic; encapsulation always fails. The null interface functions similarly to the null devices available on most operating systems. Null interfaces are used as a low-overhead method of discarding unnecessary network traffic.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure an OER map named BLACK_HOLE_MAP that directs packets to the null interface. To use this configuration for a DoS attack, leave the access list empty until an attack is detected and add the prefix or prefixes that are determined to be the source of the attack. Subsequent packets received from the specified prefix or prefixes will be discarded.

Usage Guidelines

The set jitter command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command is used to specify the maximum tolerable jitter value permitted on an exit link. Jitter is a measure of voice quality where the lower the jitter value, the higher the voice quality. If the jitter value is greater than the user-defined or the default value, OER determines that the exit link is out-of-policy and searches for an alternate exit link.

Another measure of voice quality is the estimated Mean Opinion Score (MOS). Use the set mos command and the set jitter command in an OER map to define voice quality.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure an OER map named JITTER that sets the threshold jitter value. If the jitter threshold value exceeds 20 milliseconds, the master controller searches for a new exit link.

Introduced in Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, link groups are used to define a group of exit links as a preferred set of links or a fallback set of links for OER to use when optimizing traffic classes specified in an OER policy. Up to three link groups can be specified for each interface. Use the link-group command to define the link group for an interface and use the set link-group command to define the primary link group and a fallback link group for a specified traffic class in an OER map.

Use the show oer master link-group command to view information about configured OER link groups.

Usage Guidelines

The set loss command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command is used to configure an OER map to set the relative percentage or maximum number of packets that OER will permit to be lost during transmission on an exit link. If packet loss is greater than the user-defined or the default value, OER determines that the exit link is out-of-policy and searches for an alternate exit link.

The relative keyword is used to configure the relative packet loss percentage. The relative packet loss percentage is based on a comparison of short-term and long-term packet loss. The short-term measurement reflects the percentage of packet loss within a 5-minute period. The long-term measurement reflects the percentage of packet loss within a 60-minute period. The following formula is used to calculate this value:

Relative packet loss = ((short-term loss - long-term loss) / long-term loss) * 100

The master controller measures the difference between these two values as a percentage. If the percentage exceeds the user-defined or default value, the exit link is determined to be out-of-policy. For example, if long-term packet loss is 200 PPM and short-term packet loss is 300 PPM, the relative loss percentage is 50 percent.

The threshold keyword is used to configure the absolute maximum packet loss. The maximum value is based on the actual number of PPM that have been lost.

Examples

The following example creates an OER map named LOSS that sets the relative percentage of acceptable packet loss for traffic from the prefix list named CUSTOMER to a 20 percent relative percentage. If the packet loss on the current exit link exceeds 20 percent, the master controller will search for a new exit.

The fast and throughput keywords were added.

Usage Guidelines

The set mode command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command is used to configure an OER map to enable and configure control mode and observe mode settings, passive monitoring and active monitoring, and exit link selection for traffic that is configured as match criteria.

Observe Mode

Observe mode monitoring is enabled by default. In observe mode, the master controller monitors prefixes and exit links based on default and user-defined policies and then reports the status of the network and the decisions that should be made but does not implement any changes. This mode allows you to verify the effectiveness of this feature before it is actively deployed.

Control Mode

In control mode, the master controller coordinates information from the border routers and makes policy decisions just as it does in observe mode. The master controller monitors prefixes and exits based on default and user-defined policies but then implements changes to optimize prefixes and to select the best exit. In this mode, the master controller gathers performance statistics from the border routers and then transmits commands to the border routers to alter routing as necessary in the OER managed network.

Passive Monitoring

The master controller passively monitors IP prefixes and TCP traffic flows. Passive monitoring is configured on the master controller. Monitoring statistics are gathered on the border routers and then reported back to the master controller. OER uses NetFlow to collect and aggregate passive monitoring statistics on a per prefix basis. No explicit NetFlow configuration is required. NetFlow support is enabled by default when passive monitoring is enabled. OER uses passive monitoring to measure the following information:

Delay --OER measures the average delay of TCP flows for a prefix. Delay is the measurement of the time between the transmission of a TCP synchronization message and receipt of the TCP acknowledgement.

Packet Loss --OER measures packet loss by tracking TCP sequence numbers for each TCP flow. OER estimates packet loss by tracking the highest TCP sequence number. If a subsequent packet is received with a lower sequence number, OER increments the packet loss counter.

Reachability --OER measures reachability by tracking TCP synchronization messages that have been sent repeatedly without receiving a TCP acknowledgement.

Throughput --OER measures outbound throughput for optimized prefixes. Throughput is measured in bits per second (bps).


Note


OER passively monitors TCP traffic flows for IP traffic. Passive monitoring of non-TCP sessions is not supported.

Active Monitoring

OER uses Cisco IOS IP Service Level Agreements (SLAs) to enable active monitoring. IP SLAs support is enabled by default. IP SLAs support allows OER to be configured to send active probes to target IP addresses to measure the jitter and delay, determining if a prefix is out-of-policy and if the best exit is selected. The border router collects these performance statistics from the active probe and transmits this information to the master controller. The master controller uses this information to optimize the prefix and select the best available exit based on default and user-defined policies. The active-probe command is used to create an active probe.

In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T the throughput keyword was added to enable the throughput data from passive mode monitoring to be considered when optimizing UDP traffic for both performance and load-balancing. UDP traffic can be optimized only for performance (for example, delay, jitter, and loss) when active monitoring data is available. To enable load-balancing of UDP traffic, throughput data from passive monitoring is required.

Fast Failover Monitoring

In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, a new monitoring mode, fast monitoring, was introduced. Fast monitoring sets the active probes to continuously monitor all the exits (probe-all), and passive monitoring is enabled too. Fast failover monitoring can be used with all types of active probes: ICMP echo, Jitter, TCP connection, and UDP echo. When the mode monitor fast command is enabled, the probe frequency can be set to a lower frequency than for other monitoring modes, to allow a faster failover ability. Under fast monitoring with a lower probe frequency, route changes can be performed within 3 seconds of an out-of-policy situation. When an exit becomes OOP under fast monitoring, the select best exit is operational and the routes from the OOP exit are moved to the best in-policy exit. Fast monitoring is a very aggressive mode that incurs a lot of overhead with the continuous probing. We recommend that you use fast monitoring only for performance sensitive traffic.

Optimal Exit Link Selection

The master controller can be configured to select a new exit for an out-of-policy prefix based on performance or policy. You can configure the master controller to select the first in-policy exit by entering the good keyword, or you can configure the master controller to select the best exit with the best keyword. If the good keyword is used and there is no in-policy exit, the prefix is uncontrolled.

Examples

The following example creates an OER map named OBSERVE that configures OER to observe and report but not control traffic from the prefix list named CUSTOMER:

Router(config)# oer-map OBSERVE 80
 
Router(config-oer-map)# match ip address prefix-list CUSTOMER

Number (to two decimal places) in the range from 1.00 to 5.00. The number 1.00 represents the lowest voice quality, and the number 5.00 represents the highest voice quality. The default MOS value is 3.60.

percentage

Specifies a percentage value that is compared with the percentage of MOS samples that are below the MOS threshold.

percent

Number, as a percentage.

Command Default

The default MOS value is 3.60.

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The set mos command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode and used to determine voice quality. The number of MOS samples over a period of time that are below the threshold MOS value are calculated. If the percentage of MOS samples below the threshold is greater than the configured percentage, OER determines that the exit link is out-of-policy and searches for an alternate exit link.

Another measure of voice quality is the jitter value. Use the set mos command and the set jitter command in an OER map to define voice quality.

Examples

The following example creates an OER map named MOS that configures the master controller to search for a new exit link if more than 30 percent of the MOS samples are below the MOS threshold of 3.80.

Router(config)# oer-map MOS 10
 
Router(config-oer-map)# match ip address prefix-list LIST1
Router(config-oer-map)# set mos threshold 3.80 percent 30

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

12.4(15)T

The minimum number of seconds was lowered from 4 seconds to 2 second to support the fast failover monitoring mode.

12.4(24)T

This command was modified. The packets keyword and the packet-count argument were added.

Usage Guidelines

The set probe command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command is used within an OER map configuration to set the frequency of the active probes. Unless the default frequency of 60 seconds is used, configuring the set probe command will increase the frequency of the probes. Increased probe frequency results in a lower response time of OER. The frequency can be increased for a number of policies, but if all active probes are set to an increased frequency, an Intrusion Detection Service (IDS) may be triggered.

In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, a new monitoring mode, fast monitoring, was introduced. Fast monitoring sets the active probes to continuously monitor all the exits (probe-all), and passive monitoring is enabled too. Fast failover monitoring can be used with all types of active probes: ICMP echo, Jitter, TCP connection, and UDP echo. When the set mode monitor fast command is enabled, the probe frequency can be set to a lower frequency than for other monitoring modes, to allow a faster failover ability. The minimum number of seconds was lowered from 4 seconds to 2 second to support the fast failover monitoring mode. Under fast monitoring with a lower probe frequency, route changes can be performed within 3 seconds of an out-of-policy situation.

n Cisco IOS Release 12.4(24)T, the ability to configure the number of probe packets for jitter probes was introduced. Using the packets keyword and the packet-count argument the number of packets per jitter probe can be set. The new keyword is supported under OER map configuration mode only, not at a global level. The new keyword applies only to jitter probes and the configuration affects global probes and forced probes for all traffic classes.

Examples

The following example shows how to set the frequency of an active probe to be 10 seconds using an OER map named PROBE:

Router(config)# oer-map PROBE 10
Router(config-oer-map)# set probe frequency 10

The following example shows how to set the frequency of an active probe to be 2 seconds using an OER map named FAST after the fast failover monitoring mode is enabled:

Router(config)# oer-map FAST 10
Router(config-oer-map)# set mode monitor fast
Router(config-oer-map)# set probe frequency 2

The following example shows how to set the number of probe packets for a jitter probe at 33 packets using an OER map named JITTER:

Router(config)# oer-map JITTER 
Router(config-oer-map)# set probe packets 33

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The set resolvecommand is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command is used to set priority when multiple policies are configured for the same prefix. When this command is configured, the policy with the highest priority will be selected to determine the policy decision.

The priority keyword is used to specify the priority value. The number 1 assigns the highest priority to the policy. The number 10 sets the lowest priority. Each policy must be assigned a different priority number. If you try to assign the same priority number to two different policy types, an error message will be displayed on the console.

The variance keyword is used to set an allowable variance for a user-defined policy. This keyword configures the allowable percentage that an exit link or prefix can vary from the user-defined policy value and still be considered equivalent. For example, if exit link delay is set to 80 percent and a 10 percent variance is configured, exit links that delay values from 80 to 89 percent will be considered equal.


Note


Variance cannot be set for cost or range policies.

Examples

The following example creates an OER map named RESOLVE that sets the priority for delay policies to 1 for traffic learned based on highest outbound throughput. The variance is set to allow a 10 percent difference in delay statistics before a prefix is determined to be out-of-policy.

Router(config)# oer-map RESOLVE 10
 
Router(config-oer-map)# match oer learn throughput 
Router(config-oer-map)# set resolve delay priority 1 variance 10

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The set traceroute reporting command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command is used to enable continuous and policy-based traceroute probing. Traceroute probing allows you to monitor prefix performance on a hop-by-hop basis. Delay, loss, and reachability measurements are gathered for each hop from the probe source to the target prefix.

The following types of traceroute reporting are configured with this command:

Continuous --A traceroute probe is triggered for each new probe cycle. Entering this command without any keywords enables continuous reporting. The probe is sourced from the current exit of the prefix.

Policy based --A traceroute probe is triggered automatically when a prefix goes into an out-of-policy state. Entering this command with the policy keyword enables policy based traceroute reporting. Policy based traceroute probes are configured individually for delay, loss, and reachability policies. The monitored prefix is sourced from a match clause in an OER map. Policy based traceroute reporting stops when the prefix returns to an in-policy state.

The show oer master prefix command is used to display traceroute probe results. An on-demand traceroute probe can be initiated when entering the show oer master prefix command with the current and now keywords. The set traceroute reporting command does not have to be configured to initiate an on-demand traceroute probe.

Examples

The following example, starting in global configuration mode, enables continuous traceroute probing for prefixes that are learned based on delay:

Router(config)# oer-map TRACE 10 
Router(config-oer-map)# match oer learn delay
 
Router(config-oer-map)# set traceroute reporting

12.3(8)T

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The set unreachable command is entered on a master controller in OER map configuration mode. This command is used to set the relative percentage or the absolute maximum number of unreachable hosts, based on flows per million, that OER will permit from an OER managed exit link. If the absolute number or relative percentage of unreachable hosts is greater than the user-defined or the default value, OER determines that the exit link is out-of-policy and searches for an alternate exit link.

The relative keyword is used to configure the relative percentage of unreachable hosts. The relative unreachable host percentage is based on a comparison of short-term and long-term measurements. The short-term measurement reflects the percentage of hosts that are unreachable within a 5-minute period. The long-term measurement reflects the percentage of unreachable hosts within a 60 minute period. The following formula is used to calculate this value:

Relative percentage of unreachable hosts = ((short-term percentage - long-term percentage) / long-term percentage) * 100

The master controller measures the difference between these two values as a percentage. If the percentage exceeds the user-defined or default value, the exit link is determined to be out-of-policy. For example, if 10 hosts are unreachable during the long-term measurement and 12 hosts are unreachable during short-term measurement, the relative percentage of unreachable hosts is 20 percent.

The threshold keyword is used to configure the absolute maximum number of unreachable hosts. The maximum value is based on the actual number of hosts that are unreachable based on fpm.

Examples

The following example creates an OER map named UNREACHABLE that configures the master controller to search for a new exit link when the difference between long and short term measurements (relative percentage) is greater than 10 percent for traffic learned based on highest delay:

Router(config)# oer-map UNREACHABLE 10
 
Router(config-oer-map)# match oer learn delay
 
Router(config-oer-map)# set unreachable relative 100

Usage Guidelines

The show oer api provider command is entered on a master controller. This command is used to display application interface provider and host information including the ID of each configured provider, the priority of the provider and the host (if configured), and the IP addresses of each configured host device. The detailkeyword is used to display more detailed information.

The OER application interface defines the mode of communication and messaging between applications and the network for the purpose of optimizing the traffic associated with the applications. A provider is defined as an entity outside the network in which the router configured as an OER master controller exists, for example, an ISP, or a branch office of the same company. The provider has one or more host devices running one or more applications that use the OER application interface to communicate with an OER master controller. A provider must be registered with an OER master controller before an application on a host device can interface with OER. Use the api provider command to register the provider, and use the host-addresscommand to configure a host device. After registration, a host device in the provider network can initiate a session with an OER master controller. The OER application interface provides an automated method for networks to be aware of applications and provides application-aware performance routing.

Examples

The following example shows information about configured application interface providers and host devices:

Router# show oer api provider
API Version: Major 2, Minor 0
  Provider id 1, priority 4000
   Host ip 172.17.1.1, priority 4001

Modification

12.4(15)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The show oer master learn list command is entered on an OER master controller. This command is used to display configuration information about learn lists. In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, the learn list configuration mode was introduced. Learn lists are a way to categorize learned traffic classes. In each learn list, different criteria for learning traffic classes including prefixes, application definitions, filters, and aggregation parameters can be configured. A traffic class is automatically learned by OER based on each learn list criteria, and each learn list is configured with a sequence number. The sequence number determines the order in which learn list criteria are applied. Learn lists allow different OER policies to be applied to each learn list; in previous releases, the traffic classes could not be divided, and an OER policy was applied to all the traffic classes profiled during one learning session.

Examples

The following example shows how to display configuration information about two learn lists, LIST1 and LIST2:

Router# show oer master learn list
Learn-List LIST1 10
   Configuration:
    Application: ftp
    Aggregation-type: bgp

Usage Guidelines

The show oer master link-group command is entered on an OER master controller. This command is used to display information about link groups including the link group name, the border router and the interface on the border router that is the exit link, and the ID of the exit link.

Introduced in Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, link groups are used to define a group of exit links as a preferred set of links or a fallback set of links for OER to use when optimizing a specified traffic class. Up to three link groups can be specified for each interface. Use the link-group command to define the link group for an interface and use the set link-group command to define the primary link group and a fallback link group for a specified traffic class in an OER map.

Examples

The following example displays information about all configured link groups:

Router# show oer master link-group

Modification

12.4(20)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The show oer master nbar applicationcommand is entered on an OER master controller. This command is used to verify the validity of an application that is identified using NBAR at each OER border router. If the NBAR application is not supported on one or more border routers, then all the traffic classes related to that NBAR application are marked inactive and cannot be optimized using OER.

NBAR is capable of identifying applications based on the following three types of protocols:

  • Non-UDP and Non-TCP IP protocols--For example, Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE), and Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP).
  • TCP and UDP protocols that use statically assigned port numbers--For example, CU-SeeMe desktop video conference (CU-SeeMe-Server) andPost Office Protocol over Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) server (SPOP3-Server).
  • TCP and UDP protocols that dynamically assign port numbers and require stateful inspection--For example, Real-Time Transport Protocol audio streaming (RTP-audio) and BitTorrent File Transfer Traffic (BitTorrent).

The list of applications identified using NBAR and available for profiling of OER or Performance Routing traffic classes is constantly evolving. For lists of many of the NBAR applications defined using static or dynamically assigned ports, see the Using Performance Routing to Profile the Traffic Classes module.

For more details about NBAR, see the Classifying Network Traffic Using NBAR section of the Cisco IOS Quality of Service Solutions Configuration Guide .

Examples

The following partial output shows information about the status of a number of applications identified using NBAR at three OER border routers. In this example, applications based on BGP, BitTorrent, and HTTP protocols are valid at all three OER border routers and traffic classes for these applications are active. While applications such as ConnectionLess Network Service (CLNS) and KaZaA are invalid on at least one border router, all traffic classes based on these application are marked inactive.

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

12.4(15)T

The dynamic keyword was added to support the OER application interface.

Usage Guidelines

The show oer master policy command is entered on a master controller. The output of this command displays default policy and policies configured with an OER map.

In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, an OER application interface was introduced. The OER application interface defines the mode of communication and messaging between applications and the network for the purpose of optimizing the traffic associated with the applications. A provider is defined as an entity outside the network in which the router configured as an OER master controller exists, for example, an ISP, or a branch office of the same company. The provider has one or more host devices running one or more applications that use the OER application interface to communicate with an OER master controller. The OER application interface allows applications running on a host device in the provider network to dynamically create policies to influence the existing traffic classes, or specify new traffic class criteria. The dynamic keyword displays the policies dynamically created by an application interface provider application.

Examples

The following example displays default policy and policies configured in an OER map named CUSTOMER. The asterisk(*) character is displayed next to policy settings that override default settings.

In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(24)T, 12.2(33)SRE, and later releases, PIRO introduced the ability for OER to search for a parent route--an exact matching route, or a less specific route--in any IP Routing Information Base (RIB). The following example shows that the protocol displayed for the prefix 10.1.0.0 is RIB-PBR, which means that the parent route for the traffic class exists in the RIB and policy-based routing is used to control the prefix.

In Cisco IOS Release 15.0(1)M, 12.2(33)SRE, and later releases, EIGRP route control introduced the ability for OER to search for a parent route--an exact matching route, or a less specific route--in the EIGRP routing table. In this example, the protocol displayed for the prefix 10.1.0.0 is EIGRP and this means that the parent route for the traffic class exists in the EIGRP routing table and OER is controlling the prefix.

12.2(33)SXI4

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXI4.

Usage Guidelines

The show oer master traffic-class command is entered on an OER master controller. This command is used to display information about traffic classes that are configured for monitoring and optimization. In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, new traffic-class and match traffic-classcommands were introduced to simplify the learning of traffic classes. In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(20)T, the ability to identify a traffic class using Network Based Application Recognition (NBAR) was introduced. Four types of traffic classes can be automatically learned using a traffic-classcommand in a learn list, or manually configured using a match traffic-classcommand in an OER map:

  • Traffic classes based on destination prefixes.
  • Traffic classes representing custom application definitions using access lists.
  • Traffic classes based on a static application mapping name with an optional prefix list filtering to define destination prefixes.
  • Traffic classes based on an NBAR-identified application mapping name with an optional prefix list filtering to define destination prefixes.

If none of the active, passive, or status keywords is specified, then the output will display the active, passive, and status information for the traffic classes. To restrict the amount of output, you can specify one or two of the active, passive, or status keywords, but the order of the keywords is important. If you specify the active keyword first then the passive or status keywords can be entered, if you specify the passive keyword first, then only the status keyword can be entered. The status keyword can be entered only by itself; the active and passive keywords are not accepted if they follow the status keyword. The optional detail keyword will display detailed output for the traffic classes.

To display information about traffic classes identified using NBAR, use the show oer master traffic-class application nbarcommand.

The table below displays the keywords that represent the application that can be configured with the show oer master traffic-classcommand. Replace the application-name argument with the appropriate keyword from the table.

12.4(20)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The show oer master traffic-class application nbar command is entered on an OER master controller. This command is used to display information about application traffic classes that are identified using NBAR. To display information about traffic classes defined using static application mapping, use the show oer master traffic-classcommand.

The optional detail keyword will display detailed output for the NBAR application traffic classes. If the detail keyword is not specified, and if none of the active, passive, or status keywords is specified, then the output will display the active, passive, and status information for the traffic classes. To restrict the amount of output, specify just one or two of the active, passive, or status keywords. If specified, the active, passive, or status keywords must be specified in the order shown in the syntax.

NBAR is capable of identifying applications based on the following three types of protocols:

  • Non-UDP and Non-TCP IP protocols--For example, Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE), and Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP).
  • TCP and UDP protocols that use statically assigned port numbers--For example, CU-SeeMe desktop video conference (CU-SeeMe-Server) andPost Office Protocol over Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) server (SPOP3-Server).
  • TCP and UDP protocols that dynamically assign port numbers and require stateful inspection--For example, Real-Time Transport Protocol audio streaming (RTP-audio) and BitTorrent File Transfer Traffic (BitTorrent).

The list of applications identified using NBAR and available for profiling OER or Performance Routing traffic classes is constantly evolving. For lists of many of the NBAR applications defined using static or dynamically assigned ports, see the Using Performance Routing to Profile the Traffic Classes module.

For more details about NBAR, see the Classifying Network Traffic Using NBAR section of the Cisco IOS Quality of Service Solutions Configuration Guide .

If the prefix argument is specified, only the OER-controlled traffic class that matches the application specified by the nbar-appl-name argument and the destination prefix specified by the prefix argument are displayed. If the prefix argument is not specified, all OER-controlled traffic classes that match the application specified by the nbar-appl-name argument, regardless of the destination prefix, are displayed.

Examples

The following example shows information about traffic classes consisting of Real-time Transport Protocol streaming audio (RTP-audio) traffic:

Command History

Release

Modification

12.4(15)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The traffic-class access-list command is used to configure the master controller to automatically learn application traffic defined in an access list. Only one access list can be specified, but the access list may contain many access list entries (ACEs) to help define the traffic class parameters.

In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, the learn list configuration mode was introduced. Learn lists are a way to categorize learned traffic classes. In each learn list, different criteria for learning traffic classes including prefixes, application definitions, filters, and aggregation parameters can be configured. A traffic class is automatically learned by OER based on each learn list criteria, and each learn list is configured with a sequence number. The sequence number determines the order in which learn list criteria are applied. Learn lists allow different OER policies to be applied to each learn list; in previous releases the traffic classes could not be divided, and an OER policy was applied to all the traffic classes.


Note


The traffic-class access-list command, the traffic-class application command, and the traffic-class prefix-list commands are all mutually exclusive in an OER learn list. Only one of these commands can be specified per OER learn list.

Examples

The following example, starting in global configuration mode, shows how to define a custom application traffic class using an access list. Every entry in the access list defines one application, and the destination network of the traffic class is determined by the specified aggregation method. After the access list is configured, the master controller automatically learns the defined application traffic based on highest throughput. A prefix list may be used to filter the traffic flows by destination prefix.

Router(config)# ip access-list extended USER_DEFINED_TC
Router(config-ext-nacl)# permit tcp any any 500
Router(config-ext-nacl)# permit tcp any any range 700 750
Router(config-ext-nacl)# permit udp 10.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 any

traffic-class aggregate

To aggregate Optimized Edge Routing (OER) learned traffic flows into application traffic classes using an access list, use the traffic-class aggregate command in OER Top Talker and Top Delay learning configuration mode. To disable the aggregation of OER learned traffic flows into application traffic classes using an access list, use the no form of this command.

Command History

Release

Modification

12.4(9)T

This command was introduced.

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The traffic-class aggregate command can be used with the traffic-class filter and traffic-class keys commands to configure the master controller to automatically learn defined application traffic. Only one access list can be specified, but the access list may contain many access list entries (ACEs) to help define the traffic class parameters.


Note


The traffic-class aggregate command is different from the aggregation-type command that aggregates learned prefixes based on the type of traffic flow. The traffic-class aggregate command introduces the ability to use an access list to aggregate learned traffic flows to create an application traffic class. Both commands can be used in the same configuration.

Examples

The following example, starting in global configuration mode, configures the master controller to automatically learn defined application traffic. In this example, two access lists are created to identify and define voice traffic in the network. Using the traffic-class aggregate and the traffic-class filter commands with the access lists, only voice traffic with a Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) bit set to ef, a User Datagram Protocol (UDP), and a destination port in the range of 3000 to 4000 is learned and added to the OER application database on the master controller.

Router(config)# ip access-list extended voice-filter-acl
Router(config-ext-nacl)# permit udp any 10.1.0.0 0.0.255.255 dscp ef
 
Router(config-ext-nacl)# exit

Modification

12.4(15)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The traffic-class application command is used to configure the master controller to automatically learn traffic using a keyword that represents an application. OER maps the application keyword to a protocol--TCP or UDP, or both--and one or more ports and this mapping is shown in the table below. More than one application can be configured as part of the traffic class.

In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, the learn list configuration mode was introduced. Learn lists are a way to categorize learned traffic classes. In each learn list, different criteria for learning traffic classes including prefixes, application definitions, filters, and aggregation parameters can be configured. A traffic class is automatically learned by OER based on each learn list criteria, and each learn list is configured with a sequence number. The sequence number determines the order in which learn list criteria are applied. Learn lists allow different OER policies to be applied to each learn list; in previous releases, the traffic classes could not be divided, and an OER policy was applied to all the traffic classes.


Note


The traffic-class access-list command, the traffic-class application command, the traffic-class application nbar command, and the traffic-class prefix-list commands are all mutually exclusive in an OER learn list. Only one of these commands can be specified per OER learn list.

Examples

The following example, starting in global configuration mode, shows how to define application traffic classes using two OER learn lists, LEARN_REMOTE_LOGIN_TC and LEARN_FILE_TRANSFER_TC. The number of traffic classes to be learned in both learn list sessions is set to 50, and the maximum number of traffic classes to be learned for all sessions of the learn list is set to 90. The remote login traffic class is configured using keywords representing Telnet and Secure Shell (SSH) traffic and the resulting prefixes are aggregated to a prefix length of 24. The file transfer traffic class is configured using a keyword that represents FTP and is also aggregated to a prefix length of 24. A prefix-list is applied to the file transfer traffic class to permit traffic from the 10.0.0.0/8 prefix. The master controller is configured to learn the top prefixes based on highest outbound throughput for the filtered traffic and the resulting traffic classes are added to the OER application database to be passively and actively monitored.

Command History

Release

Modification

12.4(20)T

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The traffic-class application nbar command is used to configure the master controller to automatically learn traffic using a keyword that represents an application that can be identified using NBAR. More than one application can be configured as part of the traffic class with a maximum of ten applications entered per command line. Enter multiple traffic-class application nbar command statements if you need to specify more than ten applications.

NBAR is capable of identifying applications based on the following three types of protocols:

  • Non-UDP and Non-TCP IP protocols--For example, Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE), and Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP).
  • TCP and UDP protocols that use statically assigned port numbers--For example, CU-SeeMe desktop video conference (CU-SeeMe-Server) andPost Office Protocol over Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) server (SPOP3-Server).
  • TCP and UDP protocols that dynamically assign port numbers and require stateful inspection--For example, Real-Time Transport Protocol audio streaming (RTP-audio) and BitTorrent File Transfer Traffic (BitTorrent).

Use the traffic-class application nbar ? command to determine if an application can be identified using NBAR and replace the nbar-appl-name argument with the appropriate keyword from the screen display.

The list of applications identified using NBAR and available for profiling of OER or Performance Routing traffic classes is constantly evolving. For lists of many of the NBAR applications defined using static or dynamically assigned ports, see the Using Performance Routing to Profile the Traffic Classes module.

For more details about NBAR, see the Classifying Network Traffic Using NBAR section of the Cisco IOS Quality of Service Solutions Configuration Guide .

In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, the learn list configuration mode was introduced. Learn lists are a way to categorize learned traffic classes. In each learn list, different criteria for learning traffic classes including prefixes, application definitions, filters, and aggregation parameters can be configured. A traffic class is automatically learned by OER based on each learn list criteria, and each learn list is configured with a sequence number. The sequence number determines the order in which learn list criteria are applied. Learn lists allow different OER policies to be applied to each learn list; in previous releases, the traffic classes could not be divided, and an OER policy was applied to all the traffic classes.


Note


The traffic-class access-list command, the traffic-class application command, the traffic-class application nbar command, and the traffic-class prefix-list commands are all mutually exclusive in an OER learn list. Only one of these commands can be specified per OER learn list.

Examples

The following example, starting in global configuration mode, shows how to define application traffic classes identified by using NBAR and two OER learn lists, LEARN_VOICE_TC and LEARN_VIDEO_TC. The number of traffic classes to be learned in both learn list sessions is 50, and the maximum number of traffic classes to be learned for all sessions of the learn list is 90.

The Voice over IP (VoIP) traffic class is configured using keywords representing RTP-Audio and the resulting prefixes are aggregated to a prefix length of 24. The video traffic class is configured using a keyword that represents RTP-video and is also aggregated to a prefix length of 24. A prefix list is applied to the video traffic class to match traffic for the destination prefix of 10.0.0.0/8. The master controller is configured to learn the top prefixes based on highest outbound throughput for the learned traffic, and the resulting traffic classes are added to the OER application database.

The traffic streams that the learn list profiles for both the RTP-audio and the RTP-video applications are:

10.1.1.1
10.1.2.1
20.1.1.1
20.1.2.1

The traffic classes that are learned for each application are:

10.1.1.0/24 rtp-audio
10.1.2.0/24 rtp-audio
20.1.1.0/24 rtp-audio
20.1.2.0/24 rtp-audio
10.1.1.0/24 rtp-video
10.1.2.0/24 rtp-video

The difference in traffic classes learned is due to the optional INCLUDE_10_NET prefix list that only includes RTP-video application traffic with a destination prefix that matches the prefix 10.0.0.0/8.

Router(config)# ip prefix-list INCLUDE_10_NET 10.0.0.0/8

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

OER is used to optimize the performance of selected traffic flows in your network. While defining the selected traffic flows, this command is used to filter out traffic that you are not interested in optimizing.

The traffic-class filter command can be used with the traffic-class aggregate and traffic-class keys commands to configure the master controller to automatically learn defined application traffic. Only one access list can be specified, but the access list may contain many access list entries (ACEs) to help define the traffic class parameters.

Examples

The following example, starting in global configuration mode, configures the master controller to automatically learn defined application traffic. In this example, two access lists are created to identify and define voice traffic in the network. Using the traffic-class aggregate and the traffic-class filter commands with the access lists, only voice traffic with a Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) bit set to ef, a User Datagram Protocol (UDP), and a destination port in the range of 3000 to 4000 is learned and added to the OER application database on the master controller.

Router(config)# ip access-list extended voice-filter-acl
Router(config-ext-nacl)# permit udp any 10.1.0.0 0.0.255.255 dscp ef

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The traffic-class keys command can be used with the traffic-class filter and traffic-class aggregate commands to configure the master controller to automatically learn defined application traffic. This command is used only if the traffic-class aggregate command is not configured or returns no matches.

Examples

In this following task, the traffic-class filter command references an access list that is used to filter out unwanted traffic, and an access list with aggregation criteria aggregates the traffic into subsets of traffic classes using the traffic-class aggregate command. Traffic class keys are specified with the traffic-class keys command, but they will be used only if the traffic class aggregation access list does not have any matches. Usually traffic class keys are specified when there is no traffic class aggregation. In this example, only voice traffic with a DSCP bit set to ef, a User Datagram Protocol (UDP), and a destination port in the range of 3000 to 4000 is learned and added to the OER application database on the master controller.

Router(config)# ip access-list extended voice-filter-acl

Usage Guidelines

The traffic-class prefix-list command is used to configure the master controller to automatically learn traffic based only on destination prefixes. Use the optional inside keyword to specify prefixes that are within the internal network.

In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T, the learn list configuration mode was introduced. Learn lists are a way to categorize learned traffic classes. In each learn list, different criteria for learning traffic classes including prefixes, application definitions, filters, and aggregation parameters can be configured. A traffic class is automatically learned by OER based on each learn list criteria, and each learn list is configured with a sequence number. The sequence number determines the order in which learn list criteria are applied. Learn lists allow different OER policies to be applied to each learn list; in previous releases the traffic classes could not be divided, and an OER policy was applied to all the traffic classes.


Note


The traffic-class prefix-list command, the traffic-class application command, and the traffic-class access-list commands are all mutually exclusive in an OER learn list. Only one of these commands can be specified per OER learn list.

Examples

The following example, starting in global configuration mode, shows how to define traffic classes based only on destination prefixes for a learn list named LEARN_PREFIX_TC. The traffic classes are created using the prefix list, LEARN_LIST1, in which every entry in the prefix list defines one destination network of a traffic class. After the prefix list is configured, the master controller automatically learns the traffic classes based on the highest throughput.

Router(config)# ip prefix-list LEARN_LIST1 permit seq 10 10.0.0.0/8
Router(config)# ip prefix-list LEARN_LIST1 permit seq 20 172.16.0.0/16

12.2(33)SRB

This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB.

Usage Guidelines

The unreachablecommand entered on a master controller. This command is used to specify the relative percentage or the absolute maximum number of unreachable hosts, based on fpm, that OER will permit from an OER-managed exit link. If the absolute number or relative percentage of unreachable hosts is greater than the user-defined or the default value, OER determines that the exit link is out-of-policy and searches for an alternate exit link.

The relative keyword is used to configure the relative percentage of unreachable hosts. The relative unreachable host percentage is based on a comparison of short-term and long-term measurements. The short-term measurement reflects the percentage of hosts that are unreachable within a 5-minute period. The long-term measurement reflects the percentage of unreachable hosts within a 60-minute period. The following formula is used to calculate this value:

Relative percentage of unreachable hosts = ((short-term percentage - long-term percentage) / long-term percentage) * 100

The master controller measures the difference between these two values as a percentage. If the percentage exceeds the user-defined or default value, the exit link is determined to be out-of-policy. For example, if 10 hosts are unreachable during the long-term measurement and 12 hosts are unreachable during short-term measurement, the relative percentage of unreachable hosts is 20 percent.

The threshold keyword is used to configure the absolute maximum number of unreachable hosts. The maximum value is based on the actual number of hosts that are unreachable based on fpm.

Examples

The following example configures the master controller to search for a new exit link when the difference between long- and short-term measurements (relative percentage) is greater than 10 percent:

Router(config)# oer master
Router(config-oer-mc)# unreachable relative 100

The following example configures OER to search for a new exit link when 10,000 hosts are unreachable:

Router(config)# oer master
Router(config-oer-mc)# unreachable threshold 10000
