Usage Guidelines

Creating customized filter schemes for bridged networks limits the amount of unnecessary traffic

processed and distributed by the bridging equipment. Use multiple bridge address discard/forward

commands to develop the filter scheme.

Use the (no)bridge [<1-32>|multiple-spanning-tree]command to delete the configured

discard or forward filters.

Example
RFController(config)#bridge multiple-spannin g-tree enable
RFController(config)#
RFController(config)#bridge 2 address 1a2b :3c4d:5e6f forward eth 1 vlan 2
RFController(config)#
bridge <bridge-group>
address <MAC>
[discard|forward]
[<interface>|ge <1-8>|

vlan <1-4094>]
bridge <bridge-group>

[0|<10-1000000>]
Bridge groups available for bridging.
<bridgegroup> – Bridge group value between 1 and 32
address <MAC> – Unique hardware address in the
HHHH.HHHH.HHHH format
[discard|forward] – Either discard or forward the
interface on which the configured rule is a pplied. This
filter frames on a specific interface that contain the
specified hardware address in either the source or
destination field
<interface> – The name of the interface
vlan <2-4094> – VLAN interface
ge <index> – Gigabit Ethernet interface. Mobility
RFS7000 Controller supports 4 GE’s and Mobility
RFS6000 Controller supports 8 GEs
sa <1-4> – Static Aggregate interface index. Only
supported on Mobility RFS7000 Controller
me1 – Fast Ethernet interface
up1 – WAN interface. Only available on Mobility
RFS6000 Controller and Mobility RFS4000
Controller
ageing-time [0|<10-1000000>] – The time duration a
learned MAC address persists after the last update
0 – Disables aging
<10-1000000> – Sets aging time in seconds
multiple-spanning-tree
enable
Enables Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) commands
