Parameter Description
'Underlying
Interface'
underlying-if
[DeviceTable_
UnderlyingInterface]
Assigns an Ethernet Group to the Ethernet Device. To configure
Ethernet Groups, see Configuring Ethernet Port Groups.
Note: The parameter is mandatory.
'Tagging'
tagging
[DeviceTable_
Tagging]
Defines VLAN tagging for the Ethernet Device.
■ [0] Untagged = (Default for pre-configured Ethernet Device) The
Ethernet Device accepts untagged packets and packets with the
same VLAN ID as the Ethernet Device. Incoming untagged
packets are assigned the VLAN ID of the Ethernet Device. The
Ethernet Device sends these VLAN packets untagged (i.e.,
removes the VLAN ID).
■ [1] Tagged = (Default for new Ethernet Devices) The Ethernet
Device accepts packets that have the same VLAN ID as the
Ethernet Device and sends packets with this VLAN ID. For all
Ethernet Devices that are associated with the same Ethernet
Group (see 'Underlying Interface' parameter above) and configured
to Tagged, incoming untagged packets received on this Ethernet
Group are discarded.
Note: Only one Ethernet Device can be configured as Untagged per
associated Ethernet Group. In other words, if multiple Ethernet
Devices are associated with the same Ethernet Group, only one of
these Ethernet Devices can be configured to Untagged; all the others
must be configured to Tagged.
'MTU'
mtu
[DeviceTable_MTU]
Defines the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) in bytes per VLAN
(Ethernet Device).
The valid value is 68 to 1,500. The default is 1,500.
Note:
■ MTU is not applicable to SBC Direct Media traffic and to debug
recording traffic.
■ If your first Ethernet Device is configured with an untagged VLAN,
its MTU value is the maximum MTU that can be configured for all
other Ethernet Devices that are associated with the same Ethernet
Group. In other words, if you configure additional Ethernet Devices
(tagged VLANs) that are associated with the same Ethernet Group,
their MTUs must be equal to or less than the MTU of the first
Ethernet Device (untagged VLAN). For example, if the untagged
VLAN is configured with MTU of 100 bytes, you can configure a
tagged VLAN with an MTU value of either 100 bytes or less.
■ If your first Ethernet Device is configured with a tagged VLAN and
you later configure an additional Ethernet Device with an untagged
VLAN that is associated with the same Ethernet Group, the MTU of
the untagged VLAN must be equal to or greater than the highest
MTU value configured out of all the Ethernet Devices (VLANs)
associated with the Ethernet Group. For example, if VLAN 1 is
configured with the highest MTU (100 bytes) out of all your VLANs,
you can configure an untagged VLAN with an MTU value of either
100 bytes or greater.
