Unit Configuration

BreezeCONFIG for BreezeACCESS VL and BreezeACCES 4900 User Manual

The Bridging Parameters General tab is comprised of the following components:

 Aging Time (sec): The bridge aging time for addresses of devices on both the

wired and wireless sides. This does not include addresses of BreezeACCESS

units. The available range is 20 to 2000 seconds.

 Roaming Option (SU only): The Roaming Option defines the roaming

support of the unit. When set to Enable, the SU will wait only one second

before it starts scanning for another AU. In addition, when the Roaming

Option is enabled, the SU will send Roaming SNAP messages upon

associating with a new AU. This enables fast distribution of the new location

for all clients that are behind the SU.

 Ethernet Port Control (SU only): The Ethernet Port Control option allows

enabling or disabling non-management traffic to/from the Ethernet port.

When changed to Disable, all current data sessions will be terminated. The

unit is still manageable via the Ethernet port even if it is disabled for data

traffic.

 Low Priority Traffic Percent: The Low Priority Traffic Percent defines the

minimum percentage of low priority traffic (LPTMP). The mechanism

guarantees a low priority traffic with a rate of LPTMP * RT /100, where RT

symbolizes the allowed traffic rate. The high priority traffic will thus not be

able to exceed (100-LPTMP) * RT/100. If the system receives high priority

traffic at a rate higher than this figure, some high priority packets will be

discarded.

The range is between 0 and 100 (%).

2.7.1.1 Broadcast Filtering (SU only)

 Filter Option: From the dropdown list, select the Ethernet broadcast filtering

functionality for the selected Subscriber Unit. Select from the following

options:

 Disable, which is the default and means no Ethernet broadcast filtering.

 Ethernet only, which filters broadcast messages from the Ethernet port

only.

 Wireless only, which filters broadcast messages from the wireless link

only.

 Both, which filters broadcast messages from both the Ethernet and

wireless link ports.
