Preferred ACL

Indicates if packets are first matched to

an IP-based ACL or a MAC based ACL. The possible field
values are:

IP Based ACLs

Matches packets to IP-based ACLs first,

then matches packets to MAC based ACLs.

MAC Based ACLs

Matches packets to MAC-based

ACLs first, then matches packets to IP-based ACLs.

IP ACL

Matches packets to IP-based ACLs first, then

matches packets to MAC-based ACLs.

Match

Criteria used to match IP addresses and/or MAC

addresses with an ACL’s address. The possible field values
are:

And

Both the MAC-based and the IP-based ACL must

match a packet.

Or

Either the MAC-based or the IP-based ACL must

match a packet.

MAC ACL

Matches packets to MAC-based ACLs first, then

matches packets to IP-based ACLs.

Ingress Committed Information Rate (CIR)

Defines the

CIR in bits per second. This field is only relevant when the
Police value is Single.

Ingress Committed Burst Size (CBS)

Defines the CBS

in bytes per second. This field is only relevant when the
Police value is Single.

Exceed Action

Action assigned to incoming packets

exceeding the CIR. This field is only relevant when the
Police value is Single. Possible values are:

Drop

Drops packets exceeding the defined CIR value.

Remark DSCP (Out of Profile DSCP)

Remarks packet’s

DSCP values exceeding the defined CIR value.

None

Forwards packets exceeding the defined CIR

value.

Spanning Tree

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) provides tree topography for
any arrangement of bridges. STP also provides one path
between end stations on a network, eliminating loops.

Loops occur when alternate routes exist between hosts.
Loops in an extended network can cause bridges to
forward traffic indefinitely, resulting in increased traffic
and reducing network efficiency.

The device supports the following Spanning Tree
versions:

Classic STP

Provides a single path between end

stations, avoiding and eliminating loops.

Rapid STP

Detects and uses network topologies

that provide faster convergence of the spanning tree,
without creating forwarding loops.

Multiple STP

Provides full connectivity for packets

allocated to any VLAN. Multiple STP is based on the
RSTP. In addition, Multiple STP transmits packets
assigned to different VLANs through different MST
regions. MST regions act as a single bridge.
