Digital Networks North America DNswitch 800 Configuring Bridge MIB Extensions, Bridge Capability

Page 36

Parameter

Default

Description

FastForwarding

ENABLED

This parameter is used to enable/disabled the

 

 

Fast Spanning Tree mode for the port. In this

 

 

mode, ports skip the Blocked, Listening and

 

 

Learning states and proceed straight to

 

 

Forwarding.

 

 

FastForwarding enables end-node workstations

 

 

and servers to overcome time-out problems when

 

 

the Spanning Tree Algorithm is implemented in a

 

 

network. Therefore, FastForwarding should only

 

 

be enabled for ports that are connected to an end-

 

 

node device.

Configuring Bridge MIB Extensions

The Bridge MIB includes extensions for managed devices that support Traffic Classes, Multicast Filtering and Virtual LANs. To configure these extensions, use the Extended Bridge Configuration screen as shown below:

Parameter

Description

Extended Multicast

Indicates that the switch does not support the filtering of

Filtering Services

individual multicast addresses based on GMRP (GARP

 

Multicast Registration Protocol). Note that this function is not

 

implemented in the current firmware release.

Traffic Classes

Indicates that the switch provides mapping of user priorities to

 

multiple traffic classes. (Refer to the Priority menu on page 28.)

Static Entry

Indicates that the switch allows the static filtering of unicast and

Individual Port

multicast addresses. (Refer to the Address Table Configuration

 

on page 19.)

Configurable

Indicates that the switch allows you to override the default PVID

PVID Tagging

setting (Port VLAN ID used in frame tags) and its egress status

 

(VLAN-Tagged or Untagged) on each port. (Refer to VLAN Port

 

Configuration on page 36.)

Local VLAN

This switch does not support multiple local bridges (that is,

Capable

multiple Spanning Trees).
