Table A-4. Configure Bridge Command

configure bridge clear
Minimum Access Level: Administrator
The configure bridge clear command deletes learned entries from the bridge table.
Static entries are not affected.
Example:
IAC#configure bridge clear
configure bridge mode {mux | sms | switch | uplink-tag}
Minimum Access Level: Administrator
The configure bridge mode command specifies the mode the bridge will operate in.
mux – Multiplexing forwarding mode. The system treats each DSL port as if it were a
private network connected to the uplink, and never forwards data on another DSL port.
sms – Subscriber Management System (SMS) mode. The system treats each DSL port
as if it were a private network connected to the uplink, and never forwards data on another
DSL port. In addition, a management Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is created on the
uplink for use by the SMS.
switch – Switched mode. The system acts as a transparent learning bridge. This is the
default.
uplink-tag – UpLink Tagging mode. All traffic from the DSL subscriber ports is given a
unique VLAN tag. The system therefore treats each DSL port as if it were a private
network connected to the uplink, and never forwards data on another DSL port.
Example:
IAC#configure bridge mode mux
configure bridge timeout { time }
Minimum Access Level: Administrator
The configure bridge timeout command specifies the maximum amount of time a
learned entry may exist in the bridge table without apearing as the source address of a
received frame.
time – The amount of time, in seconds, that an entry may exist. The valid range is
10–1000000 seconds, or 0 (zero, which specifies that no timeouts will occur). The default
is 300.
Example:
IAC#configure bridge timeout 0
