1. Platform Overview
The RtBrick FullStack (RBFS) software runs as a LXC container on a Linux host operating system in the bare-metal switches, which are capable of Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching. Multiple switches can be combined to support several subscribers using a leaf and spine architecture or deployed as a standalone unit using the consolidated BNG approach. Additionally, the ZTP (Zero-Touch-Provisioning) and REST-based APIs that expose the state of the system are also supported.
The image below shows a high-level overview of the platform architecture.

Platform hardware consists of forwarding ASICs and an Open Network Linux (ONL) operating system. A RBFS container that resides on top of this software includes all necessary packages to deliver access and routing protocols.
This guide looks at the platform features, the different supported hardware platforms, and features that are supported on each hardware platform.
1.1. Supported Platforms
RtBrick’s software has been validated on the following hardware platforms.
-
Edgecore CSR320 (AS7316-26XB)
-
Edgecore CSR440 (AS7535-28XB)
-
Edgecore AGR400 (AS7946-30XB)
-
Edgecore AGR420 (AS7946-74XKSB)
-
Delta AGCVA48S
-
UfiSpace S9510-28DC
-
UfiSpace S9500-22XST
-
UfiSpace S9600-32X
-
UfiSpace S9600-72XC
For a list of features and sub-features supported by each platform, see the Feature Support Matrix section.
1.2. Guidelines and Limitations
QAX-based Platforms
-
An additional restriction applies to ports belonging to a port group on QAX-based platforms. For more information, see section "1.9. Guidelines & Limitations" of the Interfaces User Guide.
1.3. Brick Daemon (BD)
RBFS runs multiple Brick Daemons (BD). Every application that runs within RBFS is fundamentally a brick daemon. For example, forwarding daemon (fibd), configuration daemon (confd), BGP (bgp.iod or bgp.appd), or interface management daemon (ifmd).
1.3.1. Brick Daemon (BD) Restartability
If a brick daemon fails (for a limited number of times), RBFS will restart it automatically. If the automatic restart does not succeed, you can use the Ubuntu system control to start a daemon.
For more information about troubleshooting the Brick Daemons, see section "2.2. Brick Daemons" of the RBFS NOC Troubleshooting Guide.
1.4. Setting Up System Parameters
You can configure basic host system parameters such as 'element name' and 'pod name' using the set system host
command.
Syntax:
set system host <attribute> <value>
Attribute | Description |
---|---|
element-name <element-name> |
Specify the name of the element (container). A pod can contain a group of elements. |
pod name <pod-name> |
Specifies the name of the Pod. Pod stands for point (zone) of deployment. |
Example: System Parameters Configuration
supervisor@rtbrick>LEAF01: op> show config system host
{
"rtbrick-config:host": {
"element-name": "ufi10.q2c.u9.r4.nbg.rtbrick.net",
"pod-name": "nbg4"
}
}
1.5. CPU Watchdog Timer Utility for Hardware Platforms
The CPU watchdog timer utility is located in BMC and helps to detect any CPU failure. It also enables the CPU to recover from faults. By default, Watchdog Timer functionality is in enabled state, and it does not require any configuration from users. However, you can configure it to change the default settings.
1.5.1. Enable CPU Watchdog Timer in Hardware
Use the following command to enable watchdog timer on the hardware.
Syntax:
set system platform-management watchdog CPU <attribute> <value>
Attribute | Description |
---|---|
action |
Specifies the possible timeout actions:
Default value: power-cycle. |
interval |
Specifies the watchdog timer interval in seconds. Default value: 1800 seconds. |
Example: Enable CPU Watchdog Timer
supervisor@rtbrick>LEAF01: op> show config system platform-management watchdog
{
"rtbrick-config:watchdog": [
{
"type": "CPU",
"action": "hard-reset",
"interval": 3600
}
]
}
You can use the ipmitool
utility to view the status of the CPU watchdog timer.
Log into the ONL and enter the command as shown below to validate CPU watchdog timer functionality.
supervisor@onl>rtbrick:~ $ sudo ipmitool mc watchdog get
Watchdog Timer Use: OS Load (0x43)
Watchdog Timer Is: Started/Running
Watchdog Timer Actions: Power Cycle (0x03)
Pre-timeout interval: 0 seconds
Timer Expiration Flags: 0x00
Initial Countdown: 1800 sec
Present Countdown: 1795 sec

4. Feature/Resource Usage
Limiting the resource usage or consumption (wherever applicable) helps to improve the system stability and also restricts over utilization of system capacity. In RBFS, the usage limits for the following resources are pre-defined:
-
IPv4 Route Count
-
IPv6 Route Count
-
MTU Profile
-
L3 MTU-Profile
-
Subscriber MTU Profile
-
Physical MTU Profile
In addition, you can track the resource usage of the following features.
-
6PE label
-
High Precision QoS
You can specify resource limits on the following images (also known as roles).
4.1. Access-Leaf Image
