Enabling and Disabling IP Fragmentation 10-5
Enabling and
Disabling IP
Fragmentation
When IP fragmentation is enabled, large FDDI packets are “fragmented” into
smaller packets. IP fragmentation allows FDDI and Ethernet stations
connected to the Switch 2200 to communicate using IP even if the FDDI
stations are transmitting packets that would typically be too large to bridge.
Default value The default value is enabled.
To enable or disable IP fragmentation for a bridge:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
bridge ipfragmentation
2 To enable IP fragmentation on a bridge, enter:
enabled
To disable IP fragmentation on a bridge, enter:
disabled
Enabling and
Disabling IPX
Snap Translation
When IPX snap translation is enabled, any 802.3_RAW IPX packets being
forwarded from Ethernet to FDDI will be translated to FDDI_SNAP. Likewise,
SNAP IPX packets being forwarded from FDDI to Ethernet will be translated
to 802.3_RAW packets. When IPX snap translation is disabled, standard (IEEE
802.1H) bridging from 802.3_RAW packets to FDDI_RAW packets is
implemented.
Default value The default value is enabled.
To enable or disable IPX snap translation for a bridge:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
bridge ipxSnapTranslation
2 To enable IPX snap translation on a bridge, enter:
enabled
To disable IPX snap translation on a bridge, enter:
disabled
