ID matching
When enabled, it tells the receiver to accept beacons only if the beacon's domain ID matches the local domain ID.
Domain ID

domain ID to determine if the beacon should be processed.
Discovery ports

bridge exists. Also, when this is enabled, the forwarding ports on match are not effective.
Forwarding ports on match

domain ID.
