PBR on ME3600 vs sdm template

[Karl Tremblay]

Hello group !  

I need in a rush to run PBR on my cisco me3600(me360x-universalk9-mz.154-3.S1.bin) I did all config and it's not working, I think sdm is the cause of my issue, at first I was sdm "default" template, after some search I've seend on forums that pbr wont work on "default" template, so I changed sdm tempate to "ip", but it's still not working. Do I need to use a different sdm template ? but "defaut" and "ip" are the only available option I'm seeing on my 3600 , oh there's also "fpga" and I don't know what fpag option really is.  My current Liscence is "MetroIPAccess".  So question is, how could I get PBR working on my switch ?!

config :

(At first I had ACL match on route-map, but I've removed it to be more simple config at all..)

route-map lan_pbr_traffic permit 5
set ip next-hop 192.168.1.1
!

interface GigabitEthernet0/23
description to PC
no switchport
ip address 192.168.200.2 255.255.255.0
ip policy route-map lan_pbr_traffic
no snmp trap link-status

thanks to help !!

Yeap I remember you changed the SDM to ip

[Karl Tremblay]

Exact,, as below: (I tried with another ios...)

TESTKT_3600#sho sdm pref current
The current License is MetroIPAccess
The current template is "ip" template.

Template values:
number of mac table entries = 8000
number of ipv4 routes = 24000
number of ipv6 routes = 4000
number of routing groups = 1000
number of multicast groups = 1000
number of bridge domains = 4096
number of acl entries = 2000
number of MDT mroutes = 0
number of ipv6 acl entries = 1000

TESTKT_3600#sh ver | i bin
System image file is "flash:me360x-universalk9-mz.152-2.S.bin"
TESTKT_3600#

Hi

Thanks let me lab it, just a recommendation, the native vlan should not be used for access vlan or assigned to users, the native vlan should be used on the trunk interfaces only.

Yes thanks :)

Is someone have an idea how make my me3600 be compatible with PBR ?

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/metro/me3600x_3800x/software/release/15-2_4_S/configuration/guide/3800x3600xscg/swpbr.html

cisco says :

Prerequisites for PBR

For Cisco ME 3600X , the PBR feature is supported with the application SDM template. For Cisco ME 3800X, this feature is supported with the scaled license.

---

Note The PBR feature does not work with the default template.

but not more information that that... ! From sdm "ip template" it's not working.  what should we do to run PBR on a 3600..what we need to do ?!

If someone know, please let me know !!

thanks :)

Hi Karl

Do you have an Advanced Metro IP access license or Metro IP? Or what license is installed on the device?

Investigating I found this link:

Note The following templates are supported for the Advanced Metro IP Access license:

– applications show applications template configuration

– default show default template configuration

– ip show ip template configuration

– qos-ipv6 show ipv6-qos template configuration

– scaled-ip-qos show scaled-ip-qos template configuration
