Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling Settings
This window is used to configure the layer 2 Protocol tunneling port settings.
To view the following window, click
L2 Features > Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling Settings
, as show below:
Figure 4-35 Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling Settings window
The fields that can be configured are described below:
Parameter
Description
Layer 2 protocol
tunneling State
Use the radio buttons to enable or disable the layer 2 protocol tunneling function
globally on the Switch.
Unit
Select the unit you want to configure.
From Port / To Port
Select a range of ports to use in the configuration.
Type
Use the drop-down menu to select the type of the ports. Available choices are
UNI
,
NNI
and
None
. The default type is None.
Tunneled Protocol
When
UNI
is selected in the
Type
drop-down menu, this drop-down menu shows the
following options:
STP
- Specify the BPDU received on these UNI will be tunneled.
GVRP
- Specify the GVRP PDU received on these UNI will be tunneled.
Protocol MAC
- Specify the destination MAC address of the L2 protocol packets that will
tunneled on these UNI ports. At present, the MAC address can be 01-00-0C-CC-CC-CC
or 01-00-0C-CC-CC-CD.
All
- Specify all supported.
Threshold (0-65535)
Enter the drop threshold for packets-per-second accepted on this UNI port. The port
drops the PDU if the protocol’s threshold is exceeded. The range of the threshold value
is 0 to 65535 (packet/second). The value 0 means unlimited. By default, the value is 0.
Click the
Apply
button to accept the changes made for each individual section.
Spanning Tree
This Switch supports three versions of the Spanning Tree Protocol: 802.1D-1998 STP, 802.1D-2004 Rapid STP,
and 802.1Q-2005 MSTP. 802.1D-1998 STP will be familiar to most networking professionals. However, since
802.1D-2004 RSTP and 802.1Q-2005 MSTP have been recently introduced to D-Link managed Ethernet switches,
a brief introduction to the technology is provided below followed by a description of how to set up 802.1D-1998 STP,
802.1D-2004 RSTP, and 802.1Q-2005 MSTP.
802.1Q-2005 MSTP
Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol, or MSTP, is a standard defined by the IEEE community that allows multiple
VLANs to be mapped to a single spanning tree instance, which will provide multiple pathways across the network.
Therefore, these MSTP configurations will balance the traffic load, preventing wide scale disruptions when a single
spanning tree instance fails. This will allow for faster convergences of new topologies for the failed instance.
