9 Click the Manage ATU Table button to make changes to the NJ240FX’s ATU table.
The screen you see allows you to display all MAC addresses that have been
plugged into that IntelliJack or just the ones that you have “locked down” to it.
You can refresh the list, add MAC addresses to it, edit existing ones or delete
entries in the ATU table.
The Address Translation Unit (ATU) performs MAC address searching, learning,
and aging functions for all ports of the IntelliJack. By default, the ATU table allows
a total of 512 entries and an aging time is 304 seconds for each entry. These
settings (ATU, ATU aging time, and ATU entries) are fixed and not editable.
The IntelliJack lets you manage its ATU table. You may want to know which MAC
addresses have been connected to a particular IntelliJack. You may want to
associate a MAC address with selected ports, so the unselected ports will not
receive frames from this MAC address. You may want to set a certain priority
level to the frames associated with the MAC address. Finally, you may want to
lock down a MAC address so that it is never dropped from the ATU table. This
last operation is referred to as MAC address filtering and you can lock down up to
32 MAC addresses into the ATU. All of these configurations are handled through
the Properties page, since an ATU table is related to a specific IntelliJack.
