Blocking to block transmission Configuration Limits of RSTP STP The Spanning Tree Algorithm places limits on three of the configuration items described above Eq 1 Isec lt Hello Time lt 10sec Eq 2 6sec Max Age lt 40 sec lt Eq 3 4 sec Forwarding Delay lt 30 sec These three variables are further restricted by the following two inequalities Eq 4 2 Hello Time 1 sec lt Max Age lt 2 Forwarding Delay 1 sec The EDS 828 s firmware will alert you immediately if any of these restrictions are violated For example setting Hello Time 5 sec Max Age 20 sec and Forwarding Delay 4 sec does not violate Eqs 1 through 3 but does violate Eq 4 since in this case 2 Hello Time 1 sec 12 sec and 2 Forwarding Delay 1 sec 6 sec Y ou can remedy the situation in any number of ways One solution is simply to increase the Forwarding Delay value to at least 11 sec HINT Take the following steps to avoid guessing Step 1 Assign a value to Hello Time and then calculate the left most part of Eq 4 to get the lower limit of Max Age Step 2 Assign a value to Forwarding Delay and then calculate the right most part of Eq 4 to get the upper limit for Max Age Step 3 Assign a value to Forwarding Delay that satisfies the conditions in Eq 3 and Eq 4 Using Traffic Prioritization The EDS 828 s traffic prioritization capability provides Q

IP router the router with the lowest IP address is the querier A switch with IP address lower than the IP address of any other IGMP queriers connected to the LAN or VLAN can become the IGMP querier 2 When an IP host receives a query packet it sends a report packet back that identifies the multicast group that the end station would like to join 3 When the report packet arrives at a port on a switch with IGMP Snooping enabled the switch knows that the port should forward traffic for the multicast group and then proceeds to forward the packet to the router 4 When the router receives the report packet it registers that the LAN or VLAN requires traffic for the multicast groups 5 When the router forwards traffic for the multicast group to the LAN or VLAN the switches only forward the traffic to ports that received a report packet GMRP GARP Multicast Registration Protocol The EDS 828 supports IEEE 802 1D 1998 GMRP GARP Multicast Registration Protocol which differs from IGMP Internet Group Management Protocol GMRP is a MAC based multicast management protocol whereas IGMP is IP based GMRP provides a mechanism that allows bridges and end stations to register or de register Group membership information dynamically GMRP functions similarly to GVRP except that GMRP registers multicast addresses on ports When a port receives a GMRP join message it will register the multicast address to its database if the multicast address is not re
