It provides for a redundant network without the redundant traffic through closed paths. For example, in a network without spanning tree protocol, the same message will be broadcast through multiple paths, which may start an unending packet-passing cycle.

    Each bridge should receive regular configuration BPDUs from the direction of the root bridge. If the maximum age timer expires before the bridge receives another BPDU, it assumes that a change in the topology has occurred, and it begins recalculating the spanning tree.

  • Page 46: Chapter 6: Configuring Ip

    Chapter 6: Configuring IP The Internet Protocol (IP) is a packet-based protocol used to exchange data over computer networks. All other IP protocols are built on the foundation. IP is a network-layer protocol that contains addressing and control information that allows data packets to be routed. The table below lists the traditional classes and ranges of IP addresses and their status.

  • Page 47: Establish Address Resolution

    The process of determining the local data link address from an IP address is called address resolution. The IntraCore 3724PWR software uses the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) for address resolution. ARP is used to associate IP addresses with media or MAC addresses. Taking an IP address as input, ARP determines the associated media address.

  • Page 48: Managing Ip Multicast Traffic

    6.2 Managing IP Multicast Traffic Multicast traffic is a means to transmit a multimedia stream from the Internet (a video conference, for example) without requiring a TCP connection from every remote host that wants to receive the stream. Traditional IP communication allows a host to send packets to one host (unicast transmission) or to all hosts (broadcast transmission).
  • Page 49 Enable the IGMP querier Multicast switches can send IGMP host-query messages to discover which multicast groups are present on attached networks. These messages are sent to the all-systems group address of 224.0.0.1 with a time-to-live (TTL) value of 1. Multicast switches continue to periodically send host-query messages to refresh their knowledge of memberships present on their networks.

  • Page 50: Access Lists

    6.3 Access Lists An access list is a criteria statement that the switch uses to determine whether to allow or block traffic based on MAC addresses, IP addresses, or UDP/TCP ports. Access lists can be configured to provide basic security on your network, and to prevent unnecessary traffic between network segments.

Changing the PVID in required to force the port to respond to a particular VLAN. Becoming a member of a VLAN is only the start. The port PVID must be changed to cause it to respond only to the desired VLAN.

  • Page 84: Spanning Tree

    10.5 Spanning Tree RSTP (Rapid spanning tree protocol) can be enabled at this screen. Various timer settings can also be set. Use this screen to change the priority and the path cost for specific ports. The priority default value is 128, and the value range is 0–240 (in multiples of 16).
  • Page 85 Use this screen to change the priority and the path cost for specific ports. The priority default value is 128, and the value range is 0–240 (in multiples of 16). The lower the assigned port path cost is, the more likely that port will be accessed. The default port path cost for a 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps port is the result of the equation: Path cost = 1000/LAN speed (in Mbps) Therefore, for 10 Mbps ports, the default port path cost is 100.

Switches executing a multicast routing protocol maintain forwarding tables to forward multicast datagrams. Switches use the IGMP to learn whether members of a group are present on their directly attached sub-nets.
