forwarding. This command is used to specify the virtual MAC address on the
interface, thus providing source MAC address for transforming SDLC message into
LLC2 message.
Please process the following configurations in the synchronous interface view.
Table 434 Configure SDLC virtual MAC address
There is no SDLC virtual MAC address by default.
Note that there are two forms of SDLC virtual MAC address: one is not followed
by sdlc-address, in this form, the address to be configured is the shared VMAC
address on the interface; the other is followed by adlc-address, that is, the VMAC
is configured for the specified ADLC address node. When one ADLC node is
configured with its own VMAC, it will use this VMAC address as the source MAC
address for DLSw; if the node does not has its own VMAC, it will use the shared
VMAC address, and applies its own sdlc-address as the last byte of the VMAC
address, so as to differentiate between this address and other ADLC nodes.
8 Configure SDLC Address
SDLC protocol permits that several virtual circuits exist in a SDLC physic link. The
one end connects to the primary station and the other end connects to the
secondary station. You should specify the SDLC address of each virtual circuit so as
to differentiate the virtual circuit. SDLC is unbalanced mode through sharer or
SDLC switch. One primary equipment can be connected with several secondary
equipment and the relationship is unique. However, connection cannot be
established between secondary equipment. It can ensure that communication
normally operates in one group of SDLC equipment only if the addresses of
secondary equipment are identified. This command is used to specify SDLC
address for virtual circuit. The address is unique in a physical interface. The SDLC
address configured on the synchronous interface is the de facto address of SDLC
secondary station.
Please process the following configurations in the synchronous interface view.
Table 435 Configure SDLC address
There is no SDLC synchronous interface address by default.
SDLC addresses range from 0x01 to 0xFE. The SDLC address on a router is valid for
one physical interface. That is, the SDLC addresses configured on the different
interfaces can be same.
9 Configure SDLC Peer Entity
This command is used to specify a next-hop MAC address on the other end for a
SDLC virtual address so as to provide the destination MAC address when
transforming from SDLC to LLC2. When setting up DLSw, one SDLC address
should be configured with one corresponding partner. The MAC address of
