•GVRP - GVRP defines a way for switches to exchange VLAN informa- tion in order to register VLAN members on ports across the network. This function should be enabled to permit automatic VLAN registration, and to support VLANs which extend beyond the local switch.

•Priority Threshold - This Switch supports Quality of Service (QoS) by using two priority queues, with Weighted Fair Queuing for each port.

•Aging Time - Time-out period in seconds for aging out dynamically learned forwarding information. Range varies from 10-415 seconds.

Spanning Tree Port Configuration

The Spanning Tree Port Configuration allows you to configure spanning tree port settings.

the Spanning Tree. When more than one port is assigned the highest priority, the port with the lowest numeric identifier will be enabled. The range is 0-255.

•Cost - This parameter is used by the STA algorithm to determine the best path between devices. Therefore, lower values should be assigned to ports attached to faster media, and higher values assigned to ports with slower media. (This takes precedence over port priority.)

•Fast Forwarding - This parameter is used to enable/disable the Fast Spanning Tree mode for the selected port.

VLAN Menu

The VLAN Menu is used to assign any port on the Switch to any of up to 256 VLAN groups. By using IEEE 802.1Q compliant VLANs, you can organize any group of network nodes into separate broadcast domains, confining broad- cast traffic to the originating group. This also provides a more secure and cleaner network environment.

•Type - Shows port type as 100TX for 10Base-T/100Base-TX, or 1000T for 1000Base-T.

•Priority - Defines the priority for the use of a port in the STA algorithm. If the path cost for all ports on a switch are the same, the port with the highest priority (that is, lowest value) will be configured as an active link in

•VLAN Port Configuration - Configures GARP, the default VLAN identi- fier, default port priority, VLAN tagging on the attached link, GVRP and
