CHAPTER 3
WEB OPERATION & CONFIGURATION
Key Parameters
DMAC Type:
Select destination MAC address type. By default, any is used. Other options available are “UC” for unicast,
“MC” for multicast, and “BC” for broadcast.
SMAC:
Select source MAC address type. By default, any is used. Select “Specific” to specify a source MAC (first three
bytes of the MAC address or OUI).
Tag:
Select VLAN tag type (Tag or Untag). By default, any type is used.
VID:
Select VID preference. By default, any VID is used. Select “Specific”, if you would like to designate a VID to this
QCL entry. Or Select “Range”, if you would like to map a range of VIDs to this QCL entry.
PCP:
Select a PCP value (either specific value or a range of values are provided). By default, any is used.
DEI:
Select a DEI value. By default, any is used.
Frame Type:
The frame types can be selected are listed below.
Any:
By default, any is used which means that all types of frames are allowed.
Ether Type:
This option can only be used to filter Ethernet II formatted packets (Options: Any, Specific – 600-ffff
hex; Default: ffff). Note that 800 (IPv4) and 86DD (IPv6) are excluded. A detailed listing of Ethernet protocol types
can be found in RFC 1060. A few of the more common types include 0800 (IP), 0806 (ARP), 8137 (IPX).
LLC:
LLC refers to Link Logical Control and further provides three options.
SSAP:
SSAP stands for Source Service Access Point address. By default, any is used. Select specific to indicate
a value (0x00 - 0xFF).
DSAP:
DSAP stands for Destination Service Access Point address. By default, any is used. Select specific to
indicate a value (0x00 to 0xFF).
Control:
Control field may contain command, response, or sequence information depending on whether the
LLC frame type is Unnumbered, Supervisory, or Information. By default, any is used. Select specific to
indicate a value (0x00 to 0xFF).
SNAP:
SubNetwork Access Protocol can be distinguished by an OUI and a Protocol ID. (Options for PID: Any,
Specific (0x00-0xffff); Default: Any) If the OUI is hexadecimal 000000, the protocol ID is the Ethernet type
(EtherType) field value for the protocol running on top of SNAP. If the OUI is that of a particular organization, the
protocol ID is a value assigned by that organization to the protocol running on top of SNAP. In other words, if
value of the OUI field is 00-00-00, then value of the PID will be etherType (0x0600-0xffff), and if value of the OUI
isother than 00-00-00, then valid value of the PID will be any value from 0x0000 to 0xffff.
IPv4:
Protocol:
IPv4 frame type includes Any, TCP, UDP, Other. If “TCP” or “UDP” is selected, you might further
define Sport (Source port number) and Dport (Destination port number).
Source IP:
Select source IP type. By default, any is used. Select “Specific” to indicate self-defined source IP
and submask format. The address and mask must be in the format x.y.z.w where x, y, z, and w are decimal
numbers between 0 and 255. When the mask is converted to a 32-bit binary string and read from left to
right, all bits following the first zero must also be zero
IP Fragment:
By default, any is used. Datagrams sometimes may be fragmented to ensure they can pass
through a network device that uses a maximum transfer unit smaller than the original packet’s size.
