    Organization (ISO) 7-layer reference model. Here is an example of that model. The SSR 2000 operates within the layers that are not shaded. Notice that Layer-2 is divided into an LLC layer and a MAC layer. The SSR 2000 operates at the MAC layer but not the LLC layer.

  • Page 24: Bridging

    L2 lookup table on the expansion module that receives the bridge packet from the network. The L2 lookup table indicates the exit port(s) for the bridged packet. If the packet is addressed to the SSR 2000’s own MAC address, the packet is routed rather than bridged.

  • Page 25: Routing

    All other protocols that require routing must be tunneled using IP. By default, the SSR 2000 uses one MAC address for all interfaces. The SSR 2000 can be configured to have a separate MAC address for each IP interface and a separate MAC address for each IPX interface.

  • Page 26: Ipx Routing

    IPX SAP – the Service Advertisement Protocol, which allows hosts attached to an IPX network to reach printers, file servers, and other services By default, IPX routing is enabled on the SSR 2000 when an IPX interface is created. Layer-4 Switching In addition to Layer-2 bridging and Layer-3 routing, the SSR 2000 performs Layer-4 switching.

  • Page 27: Quality Of Service

    The SSR 2000 QoS is based on four queues: control, high, medium, and low. Control traffic has the highest priority, high the second highest, and so on. The default priority for all traffic is low.
