4.11.4.5.4 Broadcast Relaying (L2 Service Type)
The Broadcast Relaying parameter determines whether the AU performs
broadcast relaying. When the Broadcast Relaying parameter is enabled, broadcast
packets originating from devices on the wireless link are transmitted by the AU
back to the wireless link devices, as well as to the backbone. If disabled, these
packets are sent only to the backbone and are not sent back to the wireless link.
Broadcast Relaying is applicable only to L2 Forwarding Rules. In all PPPoE
Forwarding Rules it is set to Disable. In all VoIP Forwarding Rules it is set to
Enable.
4.11.4.5.5 Unknown Forwarding Policy (L2 Services Type)
The Unknown Forwarding Policy parameter determines the mode of controlling
the flow of information from the backbone to the wireless media. Select from the
following options:
1 - Reject: The AU will transmit unicast packets only to those addresses that the
AU knows to exist on the wireless link side.
2 - Forward: Enables the transmission of all packets, except unicast packets sent
to addresses that the AU recognizes as being on its wired backbone side.
Unknown Forwarding Policy is applicable only to L2 Forwarding Rules. In all
PPPoE Forwarding Rules it is set to Reject. In all VoIP Forwarding Rules it is set to
Forward.
4.11.4.5.6 Multicast QoS Profile
The Multicast QoS Profile is the QoS Profile to be used for mulicast and broadcast
messages.
The QoS Profile must be one of the names that exist in the database after being
defined using the QoS Profile menu.
4.11.4.5.7 Forwarding Rule Class
A read-only parameter (available only in Show menu). Currently the Class of all
Forwarding Rules is Local.
4.11.4.6 Priority Classifiers
The Priority Classifier defines the QoS Profiles to be allocated to users/sessions
differentiated by DSCP or 802.1p priority classifiers. Priority Classifiers are not
applicable to VoIP Service Profiles.
Each Priority Classifier can define up to 4 uplink and 4 downlink QoS profiles.
