stride and IGMP snooping.
Figure 9-1
Output queue aging: This function is used to avoid the poor utilization of the
switch. When a packet is stored in a switch for a long time, it will expire from
the allowable time defined by the protocol and become a useless packet. To
prevent these packets from wasting the bandwidth, this switch provide an
option for the administrator to enable the queue aging function.
VLAN Striding: By selecting this function, the switch will forward uni-cast
packets to the destination port, no matter whether destination port is in the
same VLAN.
IGMP Snooping: When this function is enabled, the switch will execute
IGMP snooping version 1 and version 2 without the intervention of CPU.
The IGMP report and leave packets are automatically handled by the
switch.
