Parameter

Description

 

ARP

Sets the aging time for dynamic ARP entries.

 

Proxy ARP

Enables or disables Proxy ARP globally for the switch. This feature allows

 

 

the switch to forward an ARP request from a node in the attached

 

 

subnetwork (that does not have routing or a default gateway configured)

 

 

to a remote subnetwork. (See “Proxy ARP” on chapter 4.)

 

 

If Proxy ARP is globally enabled for the switch, then you can enable or

 

 

disable it for a specific interface. See “Adding an IP Interface” on chapter

 

 

2, or “Modifying an IP Interface” on chapter 2.

 

RIP

Enables or disables the Routing Information Protocol. The Advanced

 

 

menu sets the interval at which the switch advertises known routes, and

 

 

also enables / disables advertising for static routes or the default route.

 

OSPF

Enables or disables the OSPF routing protocol. The Advanced menu

 

 

organizes an autonomous system into normal, stub, or not so stubby

 

 

areas; configures a range of subnet addresses for which link state

 

 

advertisements can be aggregated; and configures virtual links for areas

 

 

that do not have direct physical access to the OSFP backbone, to add

 

 

redundancy, or to merge backbone areas.

 

DHCP Relay

Enables or disables BOOTP / DHCP Relay. The Advanced menu defines

 

 

the preferred servers or the outbound subnetworks for broadcasting a

 

 

BOOTP / DHCP request.

 

IGMP

Enables or disables IGMP Snooping. The Advanced menu sets the

 

Snooping

timeout for inactive multicast ports or for specific multicast flows when

 

 

there are no longer any clients. See chapter 2 “Configuring IGMP

 

 

Snooping”.

 

DVMRP

Enables or disables the Distance-Vector Multicast Routing Protocol.

 

Once RIP, OSPF and DVMRP have been globally enabled, you can enable or disable them for any specific subnet via the Subnet Configuration menu (chapter 2 “Adding an
