Glossary
egress – Parameters are set for outgoing packets.
ingress - Parameters are set for incoming packets.
bandwidth_limitation type/none - Specify the
bandwidth_limitation profile to be used. The range is 1 to 32.
The bandwidth_limitation profile is defined using the command set
bandwidth_limitation. To inspect the bandwidth, use the command
get bandwidth_limitation, see section 13.11.1 on page 161.
broadcast_allowed no/yes – Specifies whether broadcast
messages are forwarded or discarded on this connection.
description <string> - A text describing the connection.
host_port - The port between the network processor (essentially
working at level 2) and the host processor (working at layer 3 and higher
layers).
p_tag <tag>/tranparent - The 3-bit user priority in the 4-byte IEEE
802.1Q priority tag of outgoing packets may be set to this value. In the
alternative transparent mode, the p-tag in incoming packets is used
unchanged. The range is 0 to 7 and transparent.
flow_selector <flow_selection_criteria> flows <flows>
[default_flow <default_flow>] - To connect the flow and the
flow selector at the ingress or egress. <flow_selection_criteria>
can be none, p_bits or dscp. <flows> can be a number, range or
list of numbers, with valid values 1 to 8. <default_flow> is any number
in <flows>.
second_p_tag <tag>/transparent - The 3-bit user priority in the 4-
byte IEEE 802.1Q priority tag of outgoing packets may be set to this value.
In the alternative transparent mode, the p-tag in incoming packets is used
unchanged. Range 0 to 7, transparent.
first_ethertype {q_valn|s_vlan|s_vlan_9200|
transparent|vman_vlan} - Tag Protocol Identifier for the first tag.
second_ethertype {q_vlan|s_vlan|s_vlan_9200|
transparent|vman_vlan} - Tag Protocol Identifier for the second
tag.
tag <VLAN-id>/transparent/untagged - VLAN ID for packets
forwarded on this egress connection. Range for VLAN ID is 1 to 4095.
