Group mobility details
 AutoTracker supports 96 Groups with 32
VLANs / group
 Group mobility adds a new capability to move
between groups, rather than only within
VLANs
 Groups are viewed as VLANs, so now we can
configure up to 500 VLANs (really groups) in
the OmniSwitch


if there are no users active on the VLAN group then
the group is inactive
when a user attaches and matches the policies, the
group becomes active
11
Group mobility details
Group mobility also provides dynamic autoactivation of LAN Emulation clients




saves switch resources
saves network resources
scalable for large networks
a group can have an elan name attribute associated
with it, so when a group becomes active the
associated LEC attaches to the ELAN
12
How does this all work?
The default group (Group #1) is used as a
holding group for all ports participating in group
mobility
AutoTracker rules operates the same; just use a
group other than default Group #1 for AutoTracker if
you are also using group mobility
 all ports on the default group are candidates to move
to one of the configured mobile groups
 groups now have a new group mobility flag
 if this flag is set the group is participating in group
mobility and policies are applied at the group level

13
Group mobility
When a new user comes on-line,
AutoTracker observes his traffic and
applies it to policies of defined
groups.

Group mobility
AutoTracker rules without group mobility;
restricts any port to join only one of 32 VLANS
without port reassignments


group mobility expands that to 500 VLANs (groups)
a user can belong to any of 500 groups, and can
belong to multiple groups at the same time
Group mobility allows users with multiple stacks
to join multiple groups using the same
AutoTracker policies


the first policy match becomes the spanning tree
master
additional policy matches do not generate BPDUs

IP Multicast Routing
&
IP Multicast Switching
(IPMS)
What is multicast traffic?
 Similar to broadcast traffic
 It’s like selective broadcast
 Only those that request the traffic get it
 Allows a one to many communication rather
than one to one
23
Multicast versus unicast


unicast sends one packet per destination
multicast sends one packet for many destinations
Unicast
Multicast
24
Why is multicast so great?
It conserves bandwidth
Uses for multicast:







resource discovery (OSPF, RIP2, Bootp)
multipoint file transfer (Starburst Com.)
conferencing: many to many (CuSeeMe)
video netcasting (Precept Software IPTV)
redundant systems (parallel databases)
battlefield simulations (parallel processing)
information distribution in data warehousing
25
What is multicast routing?
Details:
multicast router knows who wants traffic
finds out who is sending the traffic
 delivers traffic only to those who want it
 routers communicate with each other and users to
gather the information
 once information is shared, the traffic is sent where it
needs to go


26
Protocols implemented
Most commonly used protocols:

IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol)


RFC 1112 (V2 described in draft)
DVMRP (Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol)


RFC 1075 (v3 described in draft)
used between routers to exchange multicast route
information
Internet’s MBONE built using these protocols
27

29
Why is IPMS so much better?
IPMS (IP Multicast
Switching):
intercepts IGMP
packets to track
membership by SVPN
(source virtual port
number), rather than
by network
 client application
requests membership
in a multicast group;
only those members
will receive the
multicast traffic

 Traffic is controlled by
port rather than by
network
 Performance significantly
improved because
forwarding decision is
made by network interface
 All port forwarding lists
are established
dynamically; no
configuration required
 Co-exists with existing
multicast VLANs
30
IP / IPX Filtering
Triggered IPX support
RFC 2091:




only changed info, rather than all info, is sent
receiver is able to apply changes immediately
reduced routing traffic and uses less memory
no periodic broadcasts of “redundant” information
32
IP RIP filters
RIP input filters

control which networks are allowed into the routing
table when IP RIPs are received
RIP output filters

control the list of networks included in routing
updates sent out an interface; this controls which
networks the router advertises in its IP RIP updates
33
IPX Watchdog spoofing
Why?

to prevent IPX Watchdog packets from initiating
connections on dial-on-demand links when no other
data is being sent
This feature will allow the Xylan router to
respond to a server’s Watchdog requests on
behalf of a remote client.

the Watchdog query packet will never cross the WAN
link if IPX Watchdog spoofing is enabled
34
NetWare Serialization packet filters
NetWare Serialization packet filtering:


If serialization packet filtering is enabled on a WAN
interface, when the router receives a serialization
packet, it will drop the packet instead of activating a
dial-up link
NetWare Serialization packets will never cross a WAN
link which has filtering enabled
There is one drawback:

this can allow users to bypass Novell’s licensing
scheme
35
OmniChannel
OmniChannel features and benefits
 Aggregation of
bandwidth


OmniChannel allows
up to 4 switch ports to
be aggregated together
as one high-speed pipe
 Existing technology

 Load balancing
uses the same existing
networking
technologies available
today, such as Fast
Ethernet
evenly distributes
network data between
all of the aggregated
links
 Scalability

OmniChannel
backbones easily scale
from 100 Mbps to 800
Mbps
37
OmniChannel
38
OmniChannel
How OmniChannel works

OmniChannel supports
load balancing,
flooding, spanning tree
BPDUs, and a failed
link
Load balancing

incoming packets are
assigned in a roundrobin fashion to one
OmniChannel link,
offering even
distribution of the
traffic over each link
One high-speed pipe

a group of
OmniChannel links
behaves exactly as a
single high-speed link
Resiliency

sub-second recovery
in the event of a link
failure
39
OmniChannel
High-speed backbone/server solution

The following application uses two 400 Mbps
OmniChannel links into a centralized OmniSwitch;
the central OmniSwitch then connects to a Sun
server at 800 Mbps
40
OmniChannel
Resilient backbone solutions

this application uses multiple paths from Switch A to
Switch B for a total of 800 Mbps; an alternate path is
used for two of the backbone links to protect the
backbone from a single catastrophic event, such as a
backhoe break, from bringing down the backbone
between Switches A and B
