Ethernet bridging
VLAN membership
The management agent can be configured to transmit and receive either untagged,
priority-tagged, C-tagged (IEEE 802.1Q) or S-tagged (IEEE 801.ad) frames. S-tagged
frames must be single tagged, in other words, an S-tag with no encapsulated C-tag.
The VLAN ID can be 0 (priority tagged) or in the range 1 to 4094.
In-band management
In the in-band management mode, the management agent can be reached from the
Ethernet port at the local ODU, and (assuming that the wireless link is established) the
Ethernet port at the remote ODU.
Management frames in the customer network are processed by the management agent
if (a) destination MAC address in the frame matches the ODU MAC address, and (b)
the VLAN ID in the frame matches the VLAN configuration of the management agent.
If Local Packet Filtering is enabled, unicast frames forwarded to the management
agent are filtered, that is, not forwarded in the customer network.
In-band quality of service
Frames generated within the management agent may be assigned a configured
Ethernet priority. Management frames are multiplexed with customer frames of the
same priority for transmission at the wireless port.
In-band local management
In the in-band local management mode, the management agent can be reached from
the Ethernet port at the local ODU, but not from the Ethernet port at the remote ODU.
Management frames in the customer network are processed by the management agent
if (a) destination MAC address in the frame matches the ODU MAC address, and (b)
the VLAN ID in the frame matches the VLAN configuration of the management agent.
All Ethernet frames in the management VLAN (regardless of destination address) are
filtered (discarded) at the wireless port.
In-band local management mode is useful in networks that require only local access
for network management. For correct operation of in-band local management mode,
ensure that the same management VLAN ID is configured at both ends of the link.
