To view ECMP/LAG hashing of Epipe services

Purpose

Perform this procedure to view the distribution of Epipe service traffic over a LAG and/or ECMP paths into the network. The Show Service Hashing menu command issues a CLI tools dump command to an NE. The CLI command can be issued from a specific LAG on an NE, or from an Epipe service site.

When you issue this command from a LAG, only the actual number of Epipe services currently using the physical port of the LAG will be displayed.

Alternatively, you can issue this command from an Epipe site that uses a port associated with a LAG. When you specify a range of Epipe Service IDs, the procedure will display information on all the Epipe services within that range that are using the same LAG as their egress port.

This procedure is only applicable to 7750 SR NEs and is not supported for PBB Epipe services.

Steps
 
1 

Perform one of the following:

  1. To run the Show Service Hashing command from a LAG:

    1. Choose Equipment from the navigation tree view selector.

    2. Navigate to the LAG icon by choosing Network→<required NE>→Logical Groups→LAGs→<required LAG>.

    3. Right-click on the required LAG icon and choose Show Service Hashing from the menu.

      The Epipe LAG Show Service Hashing form opens and displays the total number of Epipe services currently using the physical port of the LAG.

      If an error is detected (for example, an invalid login), then error debugging information will be provided.

  2. To run the Show Service Hashing command from an Epipe site that uses a LAG:

    1. Choose Manage→Service→Services from the NFM-P main menu. The Manage Services form opens.

    2. Configure the filter criteria. A list of services appears at the bottom of the Manage Services form.

    3. Select the required Epipe service and click Properties. The Epipe Service (Edit) form opens.

    4. In the navigation tree on the left side of the form, navigate to the required Epipe site.

    5. Right-click on the site icon and choose Show Service Hashing from the menu. The Epipe Service Show Service Hashing form opens.

    6. Enter the desired value in the End Service Id field. This is the highest Service ID in a range of up to 1024 service IDs that will be examined. It can have a value of 0 to 2147483650. The Epipe service from which you issued this command has the lowest Service ID in the range of services that will be examined. So if, for example, the Epipe has a Service ID of 100, then Service IDs up to 1124 will be examined.

      Entering a value of 0 in the End Service Id field indicates that the Service ID will not be considered. In this case, only the total number of Epipe services currently using the same physical port as the site’s LAG will be displayed.

    7. Click OK.

      The Epipe Service Show Service Hashing form opens and displays specific information on all Epipe services currently using the same physical port as the site’s LAG.

      If an error is detected (for example, an invalid login), then error debugging information will be provided.
