TRAFFIC SEGMENTATION COMMANDS
Traffic segmentation allows users to further sub-divide VLANs into smaller groups of ports that will help to reduce traffic on the
VLAN. The VLAN rules take precedence, and then the traffic segmentation rules are applied.
Command Parameters
config traffic_segmentation [<portlist>] forward_list [null | <portlist>]
show traffic_segmentation <portlist>
Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
config traffic_segmentation
Purpose Used to configure traffic segmentation on the Switch.
Syntax
config traffic_segmentation [<portlist>] forward_list [null |
<portlist>]
Description
The config traffic_segmentation command is used to configure
traffic segmentation on the Switch.
Parameters
<portlist> − Specifies a port or range of ports that will be configured
for traffic segmentation.
forward_list − Specifies a range of ports that will receive forwarded
frames from the ports specified in the portlist, above.
• null − No ports are specified
• <portlist> − Specifies a range of ports for the forwarding
list. This list must be on the same Switch previously
specified for traffic segmentation (i.e. following the
<portlist> specified above for config
traffic_segmentation).
Restrictions Only Administrator and Operator-level users can issue this
command.
Example usage:
To configure ports 1 through 10 to be able to forward frames to port 11 through 15:
DES-3526:admin# config traffic_segmentation 1-10
forward_list 11-15
Command: config traffic_segmentation 1-10 forward_list
11-15
Success.
DES-3526:admin#
show traffic_segmentation
Purpose Used to display the current traffic segmentation configuration on the
Switch.
Syntax
show traffic_segmentation <portlist>
Description
The show traffic_segmentation command is used to display the
current traffic segmentation configuration on the Switch.
Parameters
<portlist> − Specifies a port or range of ports for which the current
