Viewing the Port Address Table
The IP Address Monitoring Table is a table of node addresses that the
IntraStack automatically builds by listening to and learning the informa-
tion that is broadcast when a new node logs on.
The IntraStack checks the source and destination addresses as packets
pass through it and records the source address information in the table.
The IntraStack uses the information in this table to decide whether a
frame should be forwarded or filtered. Each entry consists of the MAC
address of the device and an identifier for the port on which it was
received.
To view the IntraStack’s IP address table:
1 Do not select any item on the front-panel image. (This
selects the entire device).
2 Click MonitorIP.
The IP Address Monitoring table appears, similar to Figure
4-13.
Figure 4-13 IP Address Monitoring table
The table automatically sorts entries numerically by their IP
address.
