algorithm is being used. The output of the queue is passed to the Shaper. If the Shaper is not
selected the frame passes untouched. The frames are then passed to the Rewriter. The Rewriter
examines the frame header information and adjusts it if required. From there on the frame is sent
to the output port (MAC layer).
Packet forwarding
Packet forwarding decisions are based on the following criteria:
• ACL:(Access Control List) The ACL can drop a frame or redirect it to a specific port
• MAC address and VLAN: The standard Ethernet switch forwarding – a frame is
forwarded by searching the learn-table and sending it to the port where the MAC-
address + VLAN was learnt. If the address is not found, or the frame is a broadcast
frame it will be sent to all the other member ports of the VLAN.
