Example

# (In standalone mode.) Display EPS scanner information.

<Sysname> display eps agent

EPS agent information:

  Slot       Port number

  1          12000

 

EPS server information:

  IP address        : 1.1.1.1

  Port number       : 6060

  Cipher key        : $c$3$rGn++lJ/vHnkk1oQDAKX9NLIz+4vXONZXCRTpQ==

  Log level         : 5

  Use server setting: Yes

Table 1 Command output

Field	Description
EPS agent information	EPS scanner information.
Port number	Port number that the EPS scanner listens on.
IP address	IP address of the EPS server.
Port number	Port number of the EPS server.
Cipher key	Key used for communications between the EPS scanner and the EPS server.
Log level	Highest numeric level of logs that the EPS scanner can generate, in the range of 0 to 5. A higher value represents more detailed log information. For example, if the log level is set to 5, the EPS scanner can generate logs of levels from 0 to 5.
Use server setting	Whether the EPS scanner uses the parameter settings deployed by the EPS server. If this field displays No, the EPS scanner uses the default settings of the EPS agent.

 

display eps agent discovery

Use display eps agent discovery to display scanned endpoint information.

Syntax

In standalone mode:

display eps agent discovery [ slot slot-number ]

In IRF mode:

display eps agent discovery [ chassis chassis-number slot slot-number ]

Parameters

slot slot-number: Specifies a card by its slot number. If you do not specify a card, this command displays the scanned endpoint information for the active MPU. (In standalone mode.)

chassis chassis-number slot slot-number: Specifies a card on an IRF member device. The chassis-number argument represents the member ID of the IRF member device. The slot-number argument represents the slot number of the card. If you do not specify a card, this command displays the scanned endpoint information for the global active MPU. (In IRF mode.)

Examples

# (In standalone mode.) Display scanned endpoint information on slot 1.

<Sysname> display eps agent discovery slot 1

# (In IRF mode.)  Display scanned endpoint information on slot 1 of chassis 1.

<Sysname> display eps agent discovery chassis 1 slot 1

Table 2 Command output

Field	Description
IP-Address	Endpoint IP address.
MAC-Address	Endpoint MAC address.
OS-Type	Endpoint operating system type.
OS-ver	Endpoint operating system version.
Vendor	Endpoint vendor.
Product	Endpoint model.

 

eps agent enable

Use eps agent enable to enable EPS agent.

Use undo eps agent enable to disable EPS agent.

Syntax

In standalone mode:

eps agent enable [ slot slot-number ]

undo eps agent enable [ slot slot-number ]

In IRF mode:

eps agent enable [ chassis chassis-number slot slot-number ]

undo eps agent enable [ chassis chassis-number slot slot-number ]

Default

EPS agent is disabled.

Parameters

slot slot-number: Specifies a card by its slot number. If you do not specify a card, this command enables EPS agent for the active MPU. (In standalone mode.)

chassis chassis-number slot slot-number: Specifies a card on an IRF member device. The chassis-number argument represents the member ID of the IRF member device. The slot-number argument represents the slot number of the card. If you do not specify a card, this command enables EPS agent for the global active MPU. (In IRF mode.)

Usage guidelines

After you enable EPS agent for the scanner on a slot, the scanner scans and manages connected, reachable endpoints in its ARP table by following the instruction of the EPS server.

Examples

# (In standalone mode.) Enable EPS agent on slot 1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] eps agent enable slot 1

# (In IRF mode.) Enable EPS agent on slot 1 of chassis 1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] eps agent enable chassis 1 slot 1

eps server

Use eps server to configure EPS server parameters.

Use undo eps server to restore the default.

Syntax

eps server ip-address port port-number [ key { cipher | simple } key-value ] [ log-level level-value ] [ use-server-setting ]

undo eps server

Default

EPS server parameters are not configured.

Parameters

ip-address: Specifies the IP address of the EPS server.

port port-number: Specifies the port number of the EPS server, in the range of 1 to 65535.

key: Sets the key for communication between the scanner and the EPS server.

cipher: Specifies a key in encrypted form.

simple: Specifies a key in plaintext form. For security purposes, the key specified in plaintext form will be stored in encrypted form.

key-value: Specifies the key string. Its plaintext form is a case-sensitive string of 1 to 24 characters. Its encrypted form is a case-sensitive string of 1 to 65 characters.

log-level level-value: Specifies the highest numeric level of logs that the EPS scanner can generate, in the range of 0 to 5. A higher value represents more detailed log information. For example, if the log level is set to 5, the EPS scanner can generate logs of levels from 0 to 5.

use-server-setting: Specifies that the EPS scanner uses the parameter settings deployed by the EPS server. If you do not specify this keyword, the EPS scanner uses the default settings of the EPS agent.

Usage guidelines

A scanner enabled with EPS agent automatically generates EPS logs to record the running conditions of the EPS agent. EPS logs are saved to a local storage device instead of being sent to the information center. You can use the log-level level-value option to set the detail level of logs that the EPS scanner can generate. A higher value represents more detailed log information. The EPS scanner will generate logs at the specified level and all lower levels.

Examples

# Specify 192.168.7.27 as the IP address of the EPS server, and 4500 as the port number of the EPS server.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] eps server 192.168.7.27 port 4500
