Tree Protocol 6.1.1 - Port Spanning Tree Protocol Setup. You must enable STP on the switch
Setup (in menu 2) before you configure it on a port(s). Note that you very rarely need to
enable STP on VDSL ports since the VDSL ports are directly connected to the
users.
Edit VLAN You only see this field if you've selected 802.1Q VLAN Type in menu 2. Press
Setup [SPACE BAR] once to select Yes and then press [ENTER] to open Menu 6.1.3 —
Port VLAN Setup.
Default Port The Default Port Priority value is added to incoming frames without a (802.1p)
Priority priority tag. The default is 0. Use this field to define the default priority of each
port.
Limiting number Use this field to limit the number of (dynamic) MAC addresses that may be
of MAC address learned on a VDSL port. For example, if you set this to "5" on port 2, then only the
devices with these five learned MAC addresses may access port 2 at any one
time. A sixth device would have to wait until one of the five learned MAC
addresses aged out. MAC-address aging out time can be set in menu 2. The valid
range is from 0 to 254.
When you have completed this menu, press [ENTER] at the prompt "Press ENTER to Confirm..." to save your
configuration, or press [ESC] at any time to cancel.
