Allied Telesis AT-8600, RAPIER I, X900-48FE Set switch hwfilter mode, Set switch hwrouteupdate

Software Version 2.8.1 37

If none is specified, the trunk is not automatically re-enabled, but individual ports can be re-enabled by using the enable switch port command for thrashaction=portdisable or linkdisable, and the enable switch port vlan command for thrashaction=vlandisable. The default is 1 second.

set switch hwfilter mode

Syntax SET SWItch HWFilter MODe={PSFNPSF}

Description This new command changes the router or switch’s classifier-based packet filter mode, and is only valid for models with 48 ports (two switch instances). Use this command to ensure that packets are filtered as expected on 48-port routers or switches.

You can change the hardware filter mode after filters have been entered. When you change modes, the filter entries remain in the original order.

The mode parameter specifies the filtering mode the router or switch is set in.

The default mode is psf.

When you specify psf, the router or switch expects port-specific filters to be entered first. Use this mode when you want non port-specific filters to override the port-specific filters for certain circumstances. If you add a port-specific filter after the non port-specific filters, the router or switch may still use a matching non port-specific filter when the packet travels between ports on different switch instances.

When you specify npsf, the router or switch expects non port-specific filters to be entered first. Use this mode when you want port-specific filters to override the non port-specific filters for certain circumstances. If you add a non port-specific filter after the port-specific filters, the router or switch may not use the port-specific filter when the packet travels between ports on different switch instances.

Example To set the hardware filter mode to non port-specific filters first, use the command:

set swi hwf mod=npsf

	set switch hwrouteupdate
Syntax	SET SWItch HWRouteupdate=1..maximum
Description	This new command sets the length of the hardware route update queue.
	The hwrouteupdate parameter specifies the maximum possible number of
	entries in the queue. The maximum and default values depend on the amount of
	memory on the switch, as shown in the following table:
	Memory Size (Mbytes)	Default length	Maximum possible length
		(number of entries)	(number of entries)
	up to 128	200000	200000
	129-256	1000000	1500000
	more than 256	3000000	4000000
