Attribute  Values  Default  Required Description
Lacp-priority Unint32 32768 N Defines the default LACP priority for determining which end is master in the LACP relationship.
Aging-time Int32 300 N The amount of time to keep a MAC entry in the tables before aging it out.
Bridge-mode  Undefined 
8021q 
8021ad 
8021d 
8021q  N Only 8021q is supported. 
Unknown bridge type 
Standard 802.1q single tagged 
Double tagging with S/C tags. 
Standard switch with spanning tree prior to 8021q 
Block-unknown-unicast true | false False N Whether to block flooding of unitcast packets that do not have a known mac binding.  When set, device must speak to learn mac address prior to being able to talk to the device.  Prior to that time, it will not be able to talk.

Tolt System Bridge config Example

The following example will setthe bridge aging timer to 400 (6.6 minutes) and to meet switch security stigs and prevent flooding when a MAC has not been previously learned.

  • Command Path – tolt>system>bridge>config>
  • Module – tolt
  • Container – system
  • Container – bridge
  • Container – config
  • Types – Example Parameters
    • aging-time 400
    • block-unknown-unicast true

 

  1. From the MDS1-ESUA<Config># command line, input tolt system bridge aging-time 400 config block-unknown-unicast true and press Enter
  2. Input commit and press Enter. Outputs similar to the following are displayed:
     
    MDS1-ESUA<Config># tolt system bridge config aging-time true block-unknown-unicast true <enter> 
    MDS1-ESUA<Config># commit <enter>
    commit complete
    MDS1-ESUA<Config># _
