DESCRIPTION

VLAN Type

Choose 802.1Q or Port Based from the drop-down list box. The VLAN

Setup screen changes depending on whether you choose 802.1Q VLAN

Type or Port Based VLAN Type in this screen. See

Section 13.2 on page

126

and the VLAN chapter for more information on VLANs.

Queuing Method

Select Strictly Priority or Weighted Fair Scheduling from the drop-down

list box.
Strictly Priority services queues based on priority only. When the highest

priority queue empties, traffic on the next highest-priority queue begins.

Q7 has the highest priority and Q0 the lowest.
Weighted Fair Scheduling is used to guarantee each queue’s minimum

bandwidth based on their bandwidth portion (weight). Queues with larger

weights get more guaranteed bandwidth than queues with smaller

weights.

MAC Address Learning

MAC address learning reduces outgoing traffic broadcasts. For MAC

address learning to occur on a port, the port must be active.
Enter a time from 10 to 3000 seconds. This is how long all dynamically

learned MAC addresses remain in the MAC address table before they age

out (and must be relearned).

Active Control

STP Configuration

Select the check box to activate STP.

Link Aggregation

Select the check box to activate link aggregation.
