DESCRIPTION

EXAMPLE

 

 

 

Spanning Tree

Select Spanning Tree Protocol to enable. See section 5.5 for more

 

Protocol

information.

 

 

 

 

Priority

Configure the priority for each port here. Priority decides which port

128 (default)

 

should be disabled when more than one port forms a loop in a switch.

 

 

Ports with a higher priority numeric value are disabled first. The

 

 

allowed range is between 0 and 255 and default value is 128.

 

 

 

 

Path Cost

Path cost is the cost of transmitting a frame on to a LAN through that

100

 

port. It is assigned according to the speed of the bridge. The slower the

 

 

media, the higher the cost - see Table 5-2 STP Path Costs for more

 

 

information.

 

 

 

 

802.1Q VLAN: These fields are only visible if you chose 802.1Q In the VLAN Type field in the Switch Setup screen.

Default VLAN ID

Default VLAN ID is the PVID, the Port VLAN ID assigned to untagged

1(default)

 

frames or priority-tagged frames received on this port.

 

 

 

 

GVRP

GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol) is a registration protocol

 

 

that defines a way for switches to register necessary VLAN members

 

 

on ports across the network. Select this check box to enable GVRP

 

 

and propagate VLANs information beyond the local switch.

 

 

 

 

VLAN Acceptable

Choose All if you want the port to accept both tagged and untagged

All

Frame Type

incoming packets (to that port). Choose Tagged if you want the port to

 

 

accept just tagged incoming packets (to that port). See section 5.4 for

 

 

more information on VLANs.

 

 

 

 

Port Security

Port security means that only packets with dynamically learned MAC

 

 

addresses and/or configured static MAC addresses can pass through

 

 

this port. The switch can learn up to 16K MAC addresses in total with

 

 

no limit on individual ports other than the sum cannot exceed 16K.

 

 

For maximum port security, enable Port Security, disable Mac

 

 

address learning and configure static MAC address(es) for that port. It

 

 

is not recommended you disable Port Security together with MAC

 

 

address learning as this will result in many broadcasts.

 

 

 

 

Address Learning

MAC address learning reduces outgoing broadcast traffic. For MAC

 

 

address learning to occur on a port, the port must port must have

 

 

address learning active and the port itself must be active.

 

 

 

 

Active

Select Active to enable MAC address learning on this port.
