ARP Source Route

This selection will specify what will occur when bridging ARP packets that are also source routing explorer frames. The source routing information can either be stripped or forwarded. Choose one of the following options for this field:

pass-Rif (1)

The ARP frame is bridged as is, with the route discovery

 

proceeding as expected.

stripRif (2)

The routing information field will be stripped before it is

 

forwarded. This allows non-source routing (e.g.,

 

Ethernet) IP hosts to communicate transparently.

passBoth (3)

Both the original source-routed frame and the

 

transparent equivalent are forwarded. This provides the

 

maximum connectivity, but adds some network traffic.

none (4)

No translation will be set and the ARP frame will be

 

bridged as is. This is the same as setting the translation to

 

pass RIF. None is the default value for this option.

Netbios Source Route

This selection will specify what will occur when bridging Netbios packets that are also source routing explorer frames. The source routing information can either be stripped or forwarded. Choose one of the following options for this field:

pass-Rif (1)

The Netbios frame is bridged as is, with the route

 

discovery proceeding as expected.

stripRif (2)

The routing information field will be stripped before it is

 

forwarded. This allows non-source routing (e.g.,

 

Ethernet) Netbios hosts to communicate transparently.

passBoth (3)

Both the original source-routed frame and the

 

transparent equivalent are forwarded. This provides the

 

maximum connectivity, but adds some network traffic.

none (4)

No translation will be set and the Netbios frame will be

 

bridged as is. This is the same as setting the translation to

 

pass RIF. None is the default value for this option.

To set the Token Ring Translation Parameters:

1.Select the appropriate parameters from the pull-down menu available for each of the protocols.

2.Click on to set the translation parameters for the port.
