Expert Configuration

Proceed as follows to add a new port to the Ethernet Bridge:

1Click New under the Bridge Ethernet overview table

2In the Interface box, type a unique interface name; in the Destination list, select the interface you want to use for this connection.

3Mark the Multicast filter checkbox if you wish to filter out multicast streams on this interface. In normal situations multicast packets are flooded on all ports of the bridge, but this might cause unwanted performance issues on some interface types.

4Select the VLAN name to which arriving packets on this interface should be assigned. In VLAN enabled mode this is only applicable for untagged packets.

5Select the default Priority* to be used for tagging outgoing VLAN packets on this interface.

6Mark the Ingress Filtering* checkbox to filter out VLAN tagged packets that arrive on an interface that has not the same VID as the packet.

7Mark the Accept VLAN only* checkbox to no longer accept packets arriving on this interface without a VLAN tag.

8Choose your preferred Priority configuration from the list. This will make the SpeedTouch™ to map the priority indication in the VLAN packet (IEEE 802.1p value) to an internal priority class. This internal class can be taken into account in other modules of the SpeedTouch™.

Disabled, to not perform priority mapping

Overwrite, to set the VLAN priority indication as the internal priority.

9Click Apply.

The parameters that are marked with an asterisk (*) are only applicable when the SpeedTouch™ Ethernet bridge is in VLAN enabled mode.

Next to transparent bridging, the SpeedTouch™ is also capable of operating in a full VLAN ID aware mode. By using VLAN tagging, it is possible to make distinction between different virtual networks residing on the same physical Ethernet segment, and as such define different properties for them.

On the VLAN page, there is an overview of all VLANs that are defined in the SpeedTouch™ (through the Virtual LAN pages) and the bridge ports that are member of it.
