348 CHAPTER 21: BASIC DLSW CONFIGURATION COMMANDS
dlsw reverse
Syntax dlsw reverse mac-address
View System view
Parameter mac-address: MAC address to be converted.
Description Use the
dlsw reverse command to convert a MAC address from the Ethernet
format to the token ring format, or vice versa.
When specifying an SDLC peer MAC address for an SDLC virtual circuit, pay
attention to the following situations:
■ If the remote SNA device uses a token ring address, specify its MAC address
directly.
■ If the remote SNA device uses an Ethernet address, convert the Ethernet
address to a token ring address by using the dlsw reverse command. For
example, convert 00e0.fc03.a548 to 0007.3fc0.5a12.
■ If the remote SNA device uses an SDLC link, specify a compound MAC address,
in which the first five bytes are from the virtual MAC address configured in the
sdlc mac-map local command on the remote router, and the last byte is the
SDLC address of the local router.
Related command: sdlc mac-map remote.
Example # Convert the Ethernet format MAC address 0012-3578-4521 to the token ring
format.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] dlsw reverse 0012-3578-4521
Reversed MAC address: 0048-ac1e-a284
# Convert the token ring MAC address 0048-ac1e-a284 to the Ethernet format.
[Sysname] dlsw reverse 0048-ac1e-a284
Reversed MAC address: 0012-3578-4521
