TRAFFIC SEGMENTATION COMMANDS
Traffic segmentation allows you to further sub-divide VLANs into smaller groups of ports that will help to reduce traffic on the
VLAN. The VLAN rules take precedence, and then the traffic segmentation rules are applied.
Command Parameters
config traffic_segmentation [<portlist> | all] forward_list [null | all | <portlist>]
show traffic_segmentation {<portlist>}
Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
config traffic_segmentation
Purpose Used to configure traffic segmentation on the Switch.
Syntax
config traffic_segmentation [<portlist> | all] forward_list [null |
all | <portlist>]
Description The config traffic_segmentation command is used to configure
traffic segmentation on the Switch.
Parameters
<portlist> − Specifies a port or range of ports that will be configured
for traffic segmentation. The port list is specified by listing the lowest
switch number and the beginning port number on that switch,
separated by a colon. Then the highest switch number, and the
highest port number of the range (also separated by a colon) are
specified. The beginning and end of the port list range are separated
by a dash. For example, 1:3 specifies switch number 1, port 3. 2:4
specifies switch number 2, port 4. 1:3-2:4 specifies all of the ports
between switch 1, port 3 and switch 2, port 4 − in numerical order.
Non-contiguous portlist entries are separated by a comma. (ex: 1:1-
1:3,1:7-1:9)
all – Specifies all ports on the Switch. Non-contiguous portlist entries
are separated by a comma. (ex: 1:1-1:3,1:7-1:9)
forward_list − Specifies a port or range of ports that will receive
forwarded frames from the ports specified in the portlist, above.
Restrictions Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
• null − No ports are specified
• all – Specifies all ports on the Switch.
• <portlist> − Specifies a range of ports for the forwarding list.
This list must be on the same switch previously specified for
traffic segmentation (i.e. following the <portlist> specified
above for config traffic_segmentation). The port list is
specified by listing the lowest switch number and the beginning
port number on that switch, separated by a colon. Then the
highest switch number, and the highest port number of the
range (also separated by a colon) are specified. The beginning
and end of the port list range are separated by a dash. For
example, 1:3 specifies switch number 1, port 3. 2:4 specifies
switch number 2, port 4. 1:3-2:4 specifies all of the ports
between switch 1, port 3 and switch 2, port 4 − in numerical
order. Non-contiguous portlist entries are separated by a
comma. (ex: 1:1-1:3,1:7-1:9)
Example usage:
To configure ports 1 through 10 to be able to forward frames to port 11 through 15:
