The CrossFire 8730 supports “dual home FEP”, which allows duplicate MAC
addresses in a source-route bridging Token-Ring network. This is often used by
IBM mainframes connected to a Token-Ring network, and is therefore important to
the migrating customer who uses such a solution.
For each Virtual Port on each Fast Ethernet port, 10 addresses can be configured as
Dual Home FEP addresses. A constant list of 10 MAC addresses numbered 1-10 is
shown when this menu is opened. Addresses which consist entirely of zeros
represent empty entries.
To add or change an address, highlight the address, press
ENTER
, and then either
enter the new MAC address or simply press
ENTER
once more to enter a NULL
address (empty entry).
