Ingress Filtering
Ingress filtering lets frames belonging to a specific VLAN to be
forwarded if the port belongs to that VLAN. The switch has two
ingress filtering rules, as follows:
Ingress Filtering Rule 1: Forward only packets with a VID matching
this port's configured VID.
Ingress Filtering Rule 2: Drop untagged Frames.
4.4.8 Spanning Tree
The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a standardized method (IEEE 802.1D)
for avoiding loops in switched networks. When STP is enabled, it ensures
that only one path at a time is active between any two nodes on the network.
You can enable Spanning Tree Protocol on the web interface Switch Setting
Advanced item by selecting
Enable Spanning Tree protocol
. It is
recommended that you enable STP on all switches to ensure a single active
path on the network.
