Product description
Maximum V-LANs under GVRP control
The X5IP option card supports a maximum number of 64 active IEEE 802.1Q or IEEE
802.1ad CIDs on GVRP enabled virtual switches per unit.
MAC address management
The X5IP option card supports addition of static MAC address entries into the filtering
database. These entries are not submitted to the ageing time process. When required,
users can delete MAC address entries from the filtering database using configuration
commands.
The X5IP option card supports the programmable ageing pass time feature. To check
the MAC address entries automatically, the ageing pass timer can be provisioned for a
duration between 10 seconds to 630 seconds in steps of 10 seconds for the whole
filtering database. The default value is 300 seconds. The X5IP option card supports
queries for whole static MAC address entries and dynamic MAC address entries by
specifying the MAC address and V-LAN tag.
Security - locked port mode
The X5IP option card enables users to set a port in locked mode. All the new frames
that are transmitted into the locked port will be dropped and the SA cannot be learnt.
Alarming is reported against new frames in locked port mode.
Link Pass-through
The Fast Ethernet electrical interface and Gigabit Ethernet electrical and optical
interfaces on the X5IP option card support Link Pass-through modes. The Ethernet port
transmitter is shutdown in the upstream network due to the following failures.
• loss of signal reported on a remote TransLAN Ethernet option card due to Ethernet
cable or fiber failure.
• SDH/SONET network failure
• upstream equipment failure.
Remote failures are reported in-band through the GFP-Client Signal Fail message. The
Link pass-through mode is only supported on ports that operate on a one-to-one
association with a WAN port using GFP encapsulation. Users can enable or disable the
Link pass-through mode per port.
The X5IP option card supports loopbacks on outgoing Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and
Gigabit Ethernet signals.
The following figure shows the block diagram of the X5IP option card.
