Bridge Management Parameter Overview

Bridge Management parameters fall into five general categories:

Management Interface

Remote Management

Bridge Module Operation and Performance (Configuration)

Filtering

Statistics

The categories and specific parameters are discussed in the following sections. All commands, arguments, and parameters are listed with examples in Chapter 4.

Management Interface Parameters

The following three parameters control the configuration of the Bridge Management Interface:

Terminal Settings

Prompt

Password

Note that the new parameters you set are effective immediately; however, you must use the SAVE command for the new parameters to remain effective after a system reboot. Remember that you must first use the administrator password to enable use of the SET command.

Configuring the Terminal

You must initially configure your terminal to the same parameter settings as the Bridge Module so the terminal and the bridge can communicate.
