7.3.5 Forwarding Database
Profile Network Configuration
A Forwarding Database is used by a bridge to forward or filter packets. The bridge reads the packet’s
destination MAC address and decides to either forward the packet or drop (filter) it. If it is determined the
destination MAC is on a different network segment, it forwards the packet to the segment. If the destination
MAC is on the same network segment, the packet is dropped (filtered). As nodes transmit packets through
the bridge, the bridge updates its forwarding database with known MAC addresses and their locations on
the network. This information is then used to decide to filter or forward the packet.
To define a forwarding database configuration:
1. Select Configuration > Profiles > Network.
2. Expand the Network menu to display its submenu options.
3. Select Forwarding Database.
