Summary of emhancements in 02.2.00
Description
QoS support on the BigIron RX is different than for the
BigIron MG8.
Rate-limiting can be performed based on ACL matching of
flows and L2/L3 priority. It operates as on the BigIron
MG8 except:
•
Only Inbound rate limiting is supported.
•
802.1p packet priority is used by default
•
Rate limit accounting is available if WRED is not
enabled.
CLI changes required for these differences are described
in the page referenced on the next column.
Default behavior on BigIron RX is hardware unknown
unicast and multicast flooding.
Operation of packet switching and routing have changed
with the BigIron RX. Details are described in the page
referenced on the next column.
This feature is not supported on BigIron RX.
On the BigIron RX, the switch, server, and per-packet
options for trunking are not supported.
1542 multicast entries are limited to IPv4 1542 entries
provided every group has only one destination.
This release supports WAN PHY Mode per 10 GB Ethernet
port.
