Chapter 7 Bridge Commands; Bridge Port Numbers; Basic Commands; Config Save Command - ZyXEL Communications IES-1000 User Manual

This chapter discusses the bridge subsystem. It allows you to configure and monitor the bridging,
configure MAC filters, port-based VLANs and tagged frame functions of the IES-1000.
The IES-1000 supports IEEE 802.1D transparent bridging; but not the static filtering feature or spanning tree
protocol. The bridge learns the source MAC addresses of sender hosts by inspecting incoming Ethernet frames and
recording the learned MAC addresses with their incoming port numbers into its filtering database. Based on the
database, the bridge forwards each incoming frame to its destination port.
