Full IPv4 networking and full IPv6 networking are similar. At the early stage of IPv6 implementation, however, IPv4/IPv6 hybrid networks are common. This gives full play to the IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack and IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling features provided by the H3C S3610 series and enables flexible networking.
Page 20
Applications 4.2.1 Broadband Ethernet Access for Residential Communities An H3C S5510 series Ethernet switch can operate on the distribution layer of a broadband MAN. You can connect it to a backbone router or Layer 3 switch in the uplink direction through its GigabitEthernet optical ports, and connect it to Layer 2/Layer 3 devices operating as the portal devices of community networks through its GigabitEthernet optical ports.

Basic concepts in STP Root bridge A tree network must have a root; hence the concept of “root bridge” has been introduced in STP. There is one and only one root bridge in the entire network, and the root bridge can change alone with changes of the network topology.

Operation Manual – MSTP H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 MSTP Configuration STP timers STP calculations need three important timing parameters: forward delay, hello time, and max age. Forward delay is the delay time for device state transition. A path failure will cause re-calculation of the spanning tree, and the spanning tree structure will change accordingly.

Operation Manual – MSTP H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 MSTP Configuration Note: In RSTP, a newly elected root port can enter the forwarding state rapidly if this condition is met: The old root port on the device has stopped forwarding data and the upstream designated port has started forwarding data.

For the description of network diameter and hello time, refer to Configuring the Network Diameter of a Switched Network Configuring Timers MSTP. Alternatively, you can also specify the current device as the root bridge by setting the priority of the device to 0.
Operation Manual – MSTP H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 MSTP Configuration 1.3.4 Configuring the Priority of the Current Device The priority of a device determines whether it can be elected as the root bridge of a spanning tree. A lower value indicates a higher priority. By setting the priority of a device to a low value, you can specify the device as the root bridge of the spanning tree.
Operation Manual – MSTP H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 MSTP Configuration When a device becomes the root bridge of the CIST or MSTI of an MST region , the maximum hop in the configuration BPDUs generated by this device defines the network diameter of the spanning tree to define how far the spanning tree can reach in this MST region.
Operation Manual – MSTP H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 MSTP Configuration Note: Network diameter is a parameter that indicates network size. A bigger network diameter represents a larger network size. Based on the network diameter you configured, MSTP automatically sets an optimal hello time, forward delay, and max age for the device.
Page 233
Operation Manual – MSTP H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 MSTP Configuration Caution: The length of the forward delay time is related to the network diameter of the switched network. Typically, the larger the network diameter is, the longer the forward delay time should be.

Operation Manual – MSTP H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 MSTP Configuration By default, the packet format recognition mode of a port is auto, namely the port automatically distinguishes the two MSTP packet formats, and determines the format of packets it will send based on the recognized format.

In this situation, you can enable the device to output the port state transition information of all MSTP instances or the specified MSTP instance so as to monitor the port states in real time.
Operation Manual – MSTP H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 MSTP Configuration Note: You must enable MSTP for the device before any other MSTP-related configuration can take effect. To control MSTP flexibly, you can use the stp disable or undo stp command to disable the MSTP feature for certain ports so that they will not take part in spanning tree calculation and thus to save the device’s CPU resources.

Operation Manual – MSTP H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 MSTP Configuration Caution: If you change the standard that the device uses in calculating the default path cost, the port path cost value set through the stp cost command will be out of effect.
Operation Manual – MSTP H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 MSTP Configuration Note: When the priority of a port is changed, MSTP will re-calculate the role of the port and initiate a state transition. Generally, a lower configured value priority indicates a higher priority of the port. If you configure the same priority value for all the Ethernet ports on a device, the specific priority of a port depends on the index number of that port.

Operation Manual – Multicast Protocol H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 3 MLD Snooping Configuration 3.1.2 Basic Concepts in MLD Snooping I. MLD Snooping related ports As shown in Figure 2-2, Router A connects to the multicast source, MLD Snooping runs on Switch A and Switch B, Host A and Host C are receiver hosts (namely, IPv6 multicast group members).
Operation Manual – Multicast Protocol H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 3 MLD Snooping Configuration Note: Whenever mentioned in this document, a router port is a router-connecting port on the switch, rather than a port on a router. On an MLD-snooping-enabled switch, the ports that received MLD general queries with the source address other than 0::0 or IPv6 PIM hello messages are router ports.
Page 717
Operation Manual – Multicast Protocol H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 3 MLD Snooping Configuration I. General queries The MLD querier periodically sends MLD general queries to all hosts and routers (FF02::1) on the local subnet to find out whether IPv6 multicast group members exist on the subnet.

Operation Manual – Multicast Protocol H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 3 MLD Snooping Configuration Note: MLD Snooping must be enabled globally before it can be enabled in a VLAN.

Operation Manual – Multicast Protocol H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 3 MLD Snooping Configuration To avoid this situation from happening, you can enable simulated joining on a port of the switch, namely configure the port as a simulated member host for an IPv6 multicast group.

Of multiple multicast routers on the same subnet, all the routers can hear IGMP membership report messages (often referred to as reports) from hosts, but only one router is needed for sending IGMP query messages (often referred to as queries).
Operation Manual – Multicast Protocol H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 IGMP Configuration Upon receiving a query message, Host B or Host C (the delay timer of whichever expires first) sends an IGMP report to the multicast group address of G1, to announce its interest in G1.
