Description

 

 

 

Flood

Specify the Flood setting. Flood refers to the

 

method in which interface modules handle

 

unknown unicasts (traffic directed to a single

 

MAC Address), broadcasts (traffic directed to all

 

MAC Addresses) and multicasts (traffic directed

 

to multiple MAC Addresses) for each port.

 

z Upl (Uplink) – Unknown unicast, broadcast

 

and multicast traffic is flooded only to the

 

DSLAM uplink interface ports. This prevents

 

communication between interface ports

 

without the intervention of an upstream

 

device such as a router. If communication

 

between interface ports is desired, the

 

upstream device must be properly configured

 

to allow it.

 

z Vln (VLAN) – Unknown unicast, broadcast

 

and multicast traffic is flooded to the

 

DSLAM’s ADSL ports (within the sender's

 

VLAN range) in addition to the uplink

 

interface ports.

 

 

 

Ethertype

Specify the Ethertype of the backbone tag added

 

to traffic if the backbone VLAN ID is

 

configured. Used only in conjunction with

 

backbone VLANs.
