Switch Port

Parameters

11.From the Hunt Group pull-down menu, select a hunt group for which this port will be a member. Refer to the Cajun P550/P220 Switch Operations Guide for more information on hunt groups.

12.From the Spanning Tree pull-down menu, select to Enable or Disable spanning tree protocol on this port.

13.From the Fast Start pull-down menu, select to Enable or Disable. When enabled, Fast Start mode ports begin forwarding traffic without waiting for the spanning tree negotiation to complete. Fast start eliminates the waiting time of listen and learn states. Ports immediately enter the forward state.

14.From the Known Mode pull-down menu, select to Enable or Disable. Selecting Enable suppresses the packets with unknown unicast destination addresses flooded to the port. For example, if a known end-station or file server is connected to the port, there’s no need to flood unknown unicasts to the port. You must manually enter a static MAC address for the station actually attached to the port.

15.From the 3Com Mapping Table pull-down menu, select the 3Com Mapping Table to specify how many incoming tagged frames from 3Com equipment are mapped to Avaya VLANs. The default is 3ComDefault.

16.From the Mirror Port pull-down menu, select Enable to display the Mirror Port.

*Note: This is a Fast Ethernet only option.

17.Click APPLY to save your changes, or CANCEL to restore previous settings.
