6196.0. "manual filter switch setup with MCC ?" by LSNCSC::MOINET () Fri Dec 16 1994 12:34

    Hi all,
    
    I have got a customer issue wich involves the bridge acces module.
    
    He was previously using ELMS for bridge management, but now he is using
    MCC and its bridge acces module.
    The question is: How can we set the manual switch filter to "true" into
    a lanbridge 200 with DECmcc ?
    With ELMS you can perform that as follow:
    
    	ELMS> USE DUMMY 
    	ELMS> SET MANUAL FILTER SWITCH {TRUE }
    				       {FALSE}
    
    I have checked in the documentation of the bridge access module and was
    not able to find this attribute in the "Bridge Characteristics
    Attributes" list.
    
    Could somebody help me to find a workaround or better a fix ?
    
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi all ,
    
    Finally I found it with some difficulties because it is not a "SET"
    command but a "RESET" command on the forwarding database:
    
    MCC> RESET BRIDGE .BR.LB200_NSG FORWAR DATAB MANUAL MODE TRUE
    
    Bridge LOCAL_NS:.br.lb200_nsg Forwarding Database
    AT 22-DEC-1994 18:04:34
    
    Entity successfully reset.
    MCC>
    MCC> SH BRIDGE .BR.LB200_NSG FORWAR DATAB ALL ATTR
    
    Bridge LOCAL_NS:.br.lb200_nsg Forwarding Database
    AT 22-DEC-1994 18:01:18 All Attributes
    
                 Current Forwarding Entries = 20 Entries
     Current Nonvolatile Forwarding Entries = 0 Entries
                Inactive Forwarding Entries = 1
                      Counter Creation Time = 22-DEC-1994 16:46:52.06
                          Time Since Purged = 509 Seconds
                    Forwarding Entries Lost = 0 Entries
                 Maximum Forwarding Entries = 15871 Entries
     Maximum Nonvolatile Forwarding Entries = 400 Entries
                    Normal Entry Aging Time = 120 Seconds
                     Short Entry Aging Time = 30 Seconds
                            Purge Threshold = 15614
                                Manual Mode = True
    
    Merry Christmas.
