Field Description
Binding Status
Changed Trap
This parameter allows the user to enable or disable the generation of 'binding
status changed' trap. This trap is sent when the port binding of a unicast entry
changes, i.e. the same address is learnt on a different port in the same Forwarding
Database.
Forwarding Table
Trap
This parameter allows the user to enable or disable the generation of forwarding
table trap. This trap is sent when an entry in the forwarding table is learnt/
created/modified/deleted or aged out. These traps shall be given by the packet
filter module to the applications registered for these traps.
Virtual Mac Trap
This parameter allows the user to enable or disable the generation of trap when
MAC to Virtual MAC mapping for the MAC address is not found in the M2VMac
database associated with the corresponding interface. These traps shall be given
by the packet filter module to the applications registered for these traps.
Forwarding Table
Trap Loss
This parameter tells whether the loss of binding status and forwarding table trap is
acceptable or not. Such a trap can be lost because of the unavailability of
resources. OK means trap loss is acceptable. In this case, when the trap is lost an
indication shall be given to the application, which can then synchronize its
database with the forwarding table. NotOK means trap loss is not acceptable. In
this case, if it is not possible to raise the trap for any forwarding table entry getting
learnt/modified/deleted, that entry shall not get learnt/modified/delete.
