This chapter describes the Port Configuration set of commands and how to use them. PORT CONFIGURATION SUMMARY The Matrix E1 1G694-13 features a fixed front panel of twelve 1-Gigabit Ethernet ports and an optional expansion module slot with one 10-Gigabit Ethernet uplink port.
The expansion module and fixed front panel port numbering scheme used when configuring Matrix E1 1G694-13 port functionality is shown in as 0 for being fixed ports on the front panel. In this numbering scheme, front panel port 8 is expressed as 0.8 in the CLI syntax.
The highest port number that can be entered is dependent on the number of ports in a slot location. For example: The Matrix E1 1G694-13 has 12 front panel ports (location 0), and 1 port in the expansion module (slot location 1).

Reviewing and Setting Spanning Tree Bridge Parameters 5.2.1.5 set spantree priority Use this command to set the device’s Spanning Tree priority. The device with the highest priority becomes the Spanning Tree root device. If all devices have the same priority, the device with the lowest MAC address will then become the root device.
5.2.1.6 set spantree hello Use this command to set the device’s Spanning Tree hello time, This is the time interval (in seconds) the device will transmit BPDUs indicating it is active. set spantree hello interval Syntax Description interval Command Defaults None.

Command Defaults None. Command Mode Read-Only.
By default, RSTP non-edge (bridge) ports that transition to forwarding or blocking cause the switch to issue a topology change trap. When topology change trap suppression is enabled, which is the device default, edge ports (such as end station PCs) are prevented from sending topology change traps.
Reviewing and Setting Spanning Tree Bridge Parameters 5.2.1.15 show spantree rtmsgage Use this command to display the status of real time BPDU message age mode. show spantree rtmsgage Syntax Description None.

Reviewing and Setting Spanning Tree Port Parameters 5.2.2.2 show spantree blockedports Use this command to display the blocked ports in a Spanning Tree. A port in this state does not participate in the transmission of frames, thus preventing duplication arising through multiple paths existing in the active topology of the bridged LAN.
5.2.2.3 show spantree portpri Use this command to show the Spanning Tree priority for one or more ports. If the path cost for all ports on a device is the same, the port with the highest priority (i.e., lowest value) will be configured as an active link in the Spanning Tree.
Reviewing and Setting Spanning Tree Port Parameters 5.2.2.4 set spantree portpri Use this command to set a port’s priority for use in the Spanning Tree algorithm (STA). set spantree portpri port_string priority NOTE: Path cost (set spantree portcost) takes precedence over port priority.

In this case, the 0 value indicates that the port has been set to use its default value when operating in a Spanning Tree: Matrix>show spantree portcost ge.0.3 Port cost = 0 for port ge.0.3.
Reviewing and Setting Spanning Tree Port Parameters 5.2.2.6 set spantree portcost Use this command to assign a cost value to a Spanning Tree port.

VLAN list or untagged frames, and configure the GVRP function on the device. Preparing for VLAN Configuration A little forethought and planning is essential to a good VLAN implementation. Before attempting to configure a single switch for VLAN operation, consider the following: • How many VLANs will be required? •...
VLAN CONFIGURATION COMMAND SET 6.2.1 Reviewing Existing VLANs Purpose To see a list of the current VLANs (dynamic and static) configured on the device, their VLAN type, and the ports on the VLAN egress list. The device uses the VLAN egress list to keep track of all VLANs that it will recognize.
Reviewing Existing VLANs 6.2.1.1 show vlan Use this command to display information related to one or more VLAN(s) known to the device (static and dynamic). show vlan [vlan_id] Syntax Description vlan_id Command Defaults If vlan_id is not specified, information for all VLANs will be displayed. Command Mode Read-Only.
Page 143
This example shows how to display the information for VLAN 7 only. In this case, VLAN 7 has a VLAN name of green and it is enabled. Gigabit Ethernet front panel ports 5 through 7, 9, and 11 are in VLAN 7’s port egress list and are configured to transmit frames tagged as VLAN 7 frames. There are no VLAN 7 forbidden ports.
Reviewing Existing VLANs 6.2.1.2 show vlan static Use this command to display all information related to one or more static VLAN(s) known to the device. Static VLANs are those VLANs that you have manually created using this command set, SNMP MIBs, or the WebView management application. show vlan static [vlan_id] Syntax Description vlan_id...
6.2.2 Creating and Naming Static VLANs Purpose To create a new static VLAN, or enable/disable the new or other existing static VLAN. Commands The commands needed to establish new or remove VLANs are listed below and described in the associated section as shown. •...
Creating and Naming Static VLANs 6.2.2.1 set vlan Use this command to create a new static IEEE 802.1Q VLAN, or to enable or disable an existing VLAN. When a new VLAN is created, it is added to the list of VLANs that the device will recognize.
Use this command to set the ASCII name for a new or existing VLAN. set vlan name vlan_id vlan_name NOTES: Each VLAN ID must be unique. If a duplicate VLAN ID is entered, the switch assumes that the administrator intends to modify the existing VLAN.

If the port is not on the port VLAN egress list of the VLAN ID indicated in the incoming frame, then that frame is dropped and not forwarded.
6.2.3.5 set port ingress filter Purpose To limit the forwarding of received VLAN tagged frames on a port to the frames with VLAN IDs that match that port’s membership on port VLAN egress lists. When ingress filtering on a port is enabled, the VLAN ID of incoming frames on a received port are compared to the received ports on the egress list of that VLAN.
Configuring the VLAN Egress List 6.2.4 Configuring the VLAN Egress List Purpose To assign or remove ports on the VLAN egress list for the device. This determines which ports will transmit frames of a particular VLAN. For example, ports 1, 5, 9, 8 could be assigned to transmit frames with VLAN ID=5.

Command Mode Read-Write. Example This example shows how to remove Gigabit Ethernet front panel port 5 from the egress list of VLAN 1.
Setting the Host VLAN Purpose To assign the host port on the switch to a VLAN that only select devices are allowed to access. This secures the host port. This is useful, for example, in restricting the configuration of the devices in the system to a limited number of users.
Setting the Host VLAN 6.2.5.1 show host vlan Use this command to display the current host VLAN. show host vlan Syntax Description None. Command Defaults None. Command Mode Read-Only. Example This example shows how to display the host VLAN. Matrix>show host vlan Host vlan is 7.
VLAN can be specifically created, for example, for device management. This would allow a work station connected to the host VLAN to manage all ports on the switch, while making management secure by preventing access via ports assigned to other VLANs.
Setting the Host VLAN 6.2.5.3 clear host vlan Use this command to set the host VLAN back to the default setting of 1. clear host vlan Syntax Description None. Command Defaults None. Command Mode Read-Write. Example This example shows how to set the host VLAN to the default setting. Matrix>...
6-1, Switch 4, port 1 is registered as being a member of VLAN Blue and then declares this fact out all its ports (2 and 3) to Switch 1 and Switch 2. These two switches register this in the Port Egress Lists of the ports (Switch 1, port 1 and Switch 2, port 1) that received the frames with the information.

This switch uses IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) to query for any attached hosts who want to receive a specific multicast service. The switch looks up the IP Multicast Group used for this service and adds any port that received a similar request to that group. It then propagates the service request on to any neighboring multicast switch/router to ensure that it will continue to receive the multicast service.
8.2.1 Enabling / Disabling IGMP Purpose To display IGMP status and to enable or disable IGMP snooping on the switch. Commands The commands needed to display, enable and disable IGMP are listed below and described in the associated sections as shown.
