makes the interface a port of the bridge. This means that all

frames received on the interface will be processed as if destined
for the bridge. Also, when sending frames on the bridge, the

interface will be considered as a potential output interface. For
the OpenArchitect switch, <interface> is zhp0, zhp1, …

IMPORTANT: This option must only be executed by zl2d.

delif <bridge> <interface>

detaches the interface from the bridge.

IMPORTANT: This option must only be executed by zl2d.

showbr <bridge>
shows information for the bridge and its attached ports. Check

the priority using this command.

showmacs <bridge>
shows a list of learned MAC addresses for the bridge.

setageingtime <bridge> <time>

sets the Ethernet (MAC) address aging time, in seconds. After
<time> seconds of not having seen a frame coming from a certain

address, the bridge will time out (delete) that address from the
Forwarding DataBase (fdb).

setgcint <bridge> <time>

sets the garbage collection interval for the bridge to <time>
seconds. This means that the bridge will check the forwarding

database for timed out entries every <time> seconds.

stp <bridge> <state>
controls this bridge's participation in the Spanning Tree

Protocol. <state> can be “off” or “on”. When turned off, the
bridge will not send or receive BPDUs, and will thus not

participate in the Spanning Tree Protocol.

CAUTION: If your bridge isn't the only bridge on the LAN, or if
there are loops in the LAN's topology, DO NOT turn this option

off. If you turn this option off, please know what you are doing.

setbridgeprio <bridge> <priority>
sets the bridge's priority to <priority>. The priority value is

an unsigned 16-bit quantity (a number between 0 and 65535), and
has no dimension. Lower priority values are better. The bridge

with the lowest priority will be elected Root Bridge.

setfd <bridge> <time>
sets the bridge's bridge forward delay to <time> seconds.

sethello <bridge> <time>

sets the bridge's bridge hello time to <time> seconds.
