Product specifications

Description:
This command deletes a device from the bridge configuration. The changes will only take place after the configuration is
saved and the system is rebooted. The syntax of the device name is the same as that for the
device add
command.
Configuration saving saves this information.
Example:
DSL bridge> device delete edd
13.4.3. device list
Syntax:
device list
Description:
This command lists all the devices that are currently attached to the bridge. It does not show the stored configuration
(which can be seen with the
config print
command).
Example:
DSL bridge> device list
13.4.4. ethertype
Syntax:
ethertype [<port> any|ip|pppoe]
Description:
This command enables filtering of Ethernet packets according to the
ETHER_TYPE
field in the header. Only packets of
the type specified using this command will be sent on the port specified; packets of all types will always be received. By
default, all bridge ports are set to “any”, which means that the type of the packet will never be checked. The meaning of
the other options is as follows:
Option Permitted ETHER_TYPE values
“ip” 0x0800
– IP
0x0806
– ARP
“pppoe” 0x8863, 0x8864
– PPP Over Ethernet (RFC 2516)
The port is specified as an integer, as displayed by the
device list
command. When using this command in the
initbridge
configuration file, ports are numbered in the order in which the
device add
commands are given, starting
from 1.
If no arguments are given, the current settings for each port are displayed.
Example:
DSL bridge> ethertype 2 any
13.4.5. filter
Syntax:
filter
Description:
This command shows the current contents of the bridge’s filter table. The MAC entries for each device are shown in turn
together with the time that the MAC address was last seen by the bridge. The command also shows the current filter
ageing time, in seconds, and the number of creation failures since the system was started. Creation failures occur when
there is no room left in the filter table for a new entry.
Example:
DSL bridge> filter
