•Bootp Relay — when enabled speciﬁes that this port will relay BOOTP packets. BootP requests and replies are encapsulated in UDP datagrams.

•IP Multicast — when enabled speciﬁes that the internet Multicast Routing Protocol is to be used over this port. Multicast Routing enables you to address a packet to multiple destinations.

3.Click on Set to set the conﬁguration.

Port Conﬁguration

The Port Conﬁguration window allows you to conﬁgure each individual port for broadcast protection, ring speed (for token ring ports only), and local switching (for token ring and fast ethernet ports only). You may conﬁgure these attributes on an individual port basis through this window.

To access the Port Conﬁguration window:

1.Click on the appropriate Port button. A menu will appear.

2.Drag down to Port Conﬁguration and release. The Port Conﬁguration window, Figure 2-10,will be displayed.

Broadcast Protection

You can conﬁgure the number of broadcast/multicast packets that will be allowed through a port in a user-deﬁned time interval in the Port Conﬁguration window. Once this threshold is reached any multicast packets received will be discarded until the user-deﬁned time interval has ended.
