Step
3. Enable MFF.

Configuring a network port

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter Layer 2 Ethernet
interface view or Layer 2
aggregate interface view.
3. Configure the port as a
network port.

Enabling periodic gateway probe

You can configure the MFF device to detect gateways periodically for the change of MAC addresses
by sending forged ARP packets. The ARP packets use 0.0.0.0 as the sender IP address and bridge
MAC address as the source MAC address.
The interval for sending gateway probes is 30 seconds.
This feature is supported by MFF manual mode and MFF automatic mode.
To enable periodic gateway probe:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter VLAN view.
3. Enable periodic gateway
probe.

Specifying the IP addresses of servers

You must specify the servers on the MFF device to ensure communication between the servers and
clients.
Specify the IP addresses of the following items if they are in the network:
•
DHCP servers.
•
Servers providing some other service.
•
Interfaces on a router in a VRRP group.
