Appendix C, Advanced Ethernet Provisioning - 10/100 Ethernet
Description
This displays the VLAN Mode menu.
This enables/disables Pause frames on the port when the customer
exceeds the port-based PIR rate.
Pause Frame generation can reduce the loss of packets due to PIR
rate limitations by forcing the port on the far end of the Ethernet link
to throttle its sending frames. The default is enabled.
This specifies a Line Identification associated with the port. This is a
user-defined string, up to 20 characters.
This enables/disables alarm reporting, allowing a service provider to
suppress alarms due to the Ethernet Port Link State being down. The
default is enabled.
Table C-3. VLAN Modes
Description
Transparent VLAN Mode supports one-to-one Ethernet-to-VCG
mappings.
Double Tag VLAN Mode adds a service provider VLAN tag before VCG
mapping.
Translation VLAN Mode translates VLAN tags to service provider
values before VCG mapping.
