BRIDGE GROUPS SUPPORTED
The switch supports the following four groups of Bridge MIB
(RFC 1493):
The dot1dBase Group – a mandatory group that contains the
objects applicable to all types of bridges.
The dot1dStp Group – contains objects that denote the
bridge’s state with respect to the Spanning Tree Protocol. If a
node does not implement the Spanning Tree Protocol, this
group will not be implemented. This group is applicable to
any transparent only, source route, or SRT bridge that
implements the Spanning Tree Protocol.
The dot1dTp Group – contains objects that describe the
entity’s transparent bridging status. This group is applicable
to transparent operation only and SRT bridges.
The dot1dStatic Group – contains objects that describe the
entity’s destination-address filtering status. This group is
applicable to any type of bridge which performs
destination-address filtering.
