Enabling and Disabling a Source Routing Bridge Port
With Source Routing bridging, you can disable all traffic through a particular
bridge port, or only traffic that would otherwise be forwarded to a specific port.
For example, you can disable all traffic that would be forwarded from port 2 to
port 4, but allow traffic to be forwarded from port 2 to ports 1 and 3.
The Enable/Disable Source Routing window lets you enable or disable Source
Routing traffic between the selected port (the port you used to open the window)
and any other bridge port.
To enable or disable a Source Routing bridge port:
1. In the Bridge Traffic View, display the Port menu by clicking mouse button 3 in
the Bridge Port box that represents the network that you want to enable or
disable.
2. In the Port menu, click on Enable or Disable, drag right to Source Routing,
and release to open the Enable/Disable Source Routing window.
