GS700AT Series Smart Switch Software Administration Manual - Enable - Enable a point-to-point link, or configure to automatically establish a pointto-point link. To establish communications over a point-to-point link, the originating PPP first sends Link Control Protocol (LCP) packets to configure and test the data link. After a link is established and optional facilities are negotiated as needed by the LCP, the originating PPP sends Network Control Protocol (NCP) packets to select and configure one or more network layer protocols. When each of the chosen network layer protocols has been configured, packets from each network layer protocol can be sent over the link. The link remains configured for communications until explicit LCP or NCP packets close the link, or until some external event occurs. This is the actual switch port link type. It may differ from the administrative state. - Disable - Disable point-to-point link. - Auto - Enable the device to automatically establish a point-to-point link. • Point-to-Point Operational Status - Displays the point-to-point operating state. • Activate Protocol Migration - Activate sending Link Control Protocol (LCP) packets to configure and test that the data link is enabled. 2. Select the interface. 3. Select the Point-to-Point Admin Status from the list in the provided field in the first row. 4. To configure and test the data link, check Activate Protocol Migration in the provided field in the first row. 5. Click Apply to update the device. Multicast Multicast forwarding allows a single packet to be forwarded to multiple destinations. L2 Multicast service is based on L2 switch receiving a single packet addressed to a specific Multicast address. Multicast forwarding creates copies of the packet, and transmits the packets to the relevant ports. • Registered Multicast traffic - If traffic addressed to a registered Multicast group is seen it is handled by an entry in the Multicast Filtering Database and forwarded only to the registered ports. • Unregistered Multicast traffic - If traffic addressed to an unregistered Multicast group is seen it is handled by a special entry in the Multicast Filtering Database. The default setting of this is to flood all such traffic (traffic in unregistered Multicast groups). 4-38 v1.0, March 2008 Configuring Switching Settings

Configuring Switching Settings

v1.0, March 2008

–

Enable

– Enable a point-to-point link, or configure to automatically establish a point-

to-point link. To establish communications over a point-to-point link, the originating

PPP first sends Link Control Protocol (LCP) packets to configure and test the data

link. After a link is established and optional facilities are negotiated as needed by the

LCP, the originating PPP sends Network Control Protocol (NCP) packets to select and

configure one or more network layer protocols. When each of the chosen network

layer protocols has been configured, packets from each network layer protocol can be

sent over the link. The link remains configured for communications until explicit LCP

or NCP packets close the link, or until some external event occurs. This is the actual

switch port link type. It may differ from the administrative state.

Multicast

Multicast forwarding allows a single packet to be forwarded to multiple destinations. L2 Multicast

service is based on L2 switch receiving a single packet addressed to a specific Multicast address.

Multicast forwarding creates copies of the packet, and transmits the packets to the relevant ports.

•

Registered Multicast traffic

– If traffic addressed to a registered Multicast group is seen it is

handled by an entry in the Multicast Filtering Database and forwarded only to the registered

ports.

•

Unregistered Multicast traffic

– If traffic addressed to an unregistered Multicast group is

seen it is handled by a special entry in the Multicast Filtering Database. The default setting of

this is to flood all such traffic (traffic in unregistered Multicast groups).
