Configuring Bridging Services
1-22 114060 Rev. A
Parameter: Enable Forwarding DB
Default: Enable
Options: Enable
| Disable
Function: If you enable this parameter, the bridge maintains an additional table,
equal in size to the forwarding table plus dynamically allocated memory
for each MAC address. This additional table contains each MAC address
in the forwarding table and the port from which the bridge learned the
address. The table allows you to access MAC addresses and ports via the
MIB.
If you change the setting of this parameter in dynamic mode, the bridge
disables and re-enables itself. If you change the setting to Disable, the
bridge deletes all previously learned addresses, including those in the
forwarding table.
Instructions: Leave this parameter enabled if you want to view the MAC addresses in
the forwarding table or the ports from which the bridge learned the
addresses.
Disable this parameter if you need to improve bridge performance.
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.1.1.1.1.6
