Table 22: ExtremeWare Task Descriptions
Task
Description
httpd
The HTTP daemon task manages the HTTP web management interface on the system.
Logpoll
In an active dual CPU system, the master CPU will initiate the log polling task (Logpoll) to
periodically poll the secondary or slave CPU(s). This process clears the individual syslogs and
consolidates them onto the master CPU switch log.
mportTask
The management port task.
pifstate
The port interface state task (pifstate) processes port link state changes. It is watchdog timer
poll driven as opposed to interrupt driven by hardware events.
tAgentX
This task is used for Agent-X implementation on the switch.
tAgentXTraps
This task is used to process Agent-X related traps.
tAsyncSave
The tAsyncSave tasks the NVRAM asynchronous save/write processing task. This process
manages the save or writes to the NVRAM.
tAXDn
The tAXDn task is used to download the configuration to the sub agent.
tAxSub
This task is used to register the Agent-X subagent (local subagent residing on the switch) with
the Agent-X master.
tAXTimerTask
The tAXTimerTask task is used to process Agent-X related timers.
tbgpTask
The border gateway protocol task (tbgpTask) implements and processes BGP on the switch.
NOTE: This option is available only on the “i” series switches.
tbgpTimerTask
The BGP internal process timer task (tbgpTimerTask) manages the internal BGP timer delays
for checking BGP networks and next hops.
NOTE: This option is available only on the “i” series switches.
tBgQosMon
The background Quality of Service monitor task (tBgQosMon) is a background version of the
QoS monitoring task that monitors transmit count and kill count of ports and cycles as long as
the monitor is enabled.
tBGTask
The background task (tBGTask) is the core task switching process. It receives packets from the
hardware ASICs and switches them to the appropriate functional task to process that packet
type or group. The tBGTask typically runs with a high CPU utilization (90% or greater). It is
constantly checking for packets to be sent up by the hardware ASICs. It only releases control of
the CPU if packets are sent to the switch or if timer functions signal another task to become
active.
tCardTask
The I/O card event task (tCardTask) manages the event signaling hardware and state machine
for the I/O modules in a chassis-based system.
tcdmTask
This cable diagnostic module takes care of cable diagnostic routines.
tChecksumPoll
The checksum polling task (tChecksumPoll) periodically polls the boards for fabric checksum
errors.
tConsole
The console task.
tdiagTask
The diagnostic task (tdiagTask) executes the diagnostic routines for the particular hardware
platform.
tDvmrpTask
The distance vector multicast routing protocol task (tDvmrpTask) implements and processes
DVMRP on the switch.
NOTE: This option is available only on the “i” series switches.
tEapsTask
The Ethernet automatic protection switching task implements and processes EAPS on the
switch.
tEdpTask
The Extreme Discovery Protocol task (tEdpTask) implements and processes the EDP neighbor
discovery process.
tEsrpTask
The Extreme Standby Router Protocol (tEsrpTask) implements and processes ESRP on the
switch.
