„

Straight-Through RJ45 to RJ45 Ethernet Cable – Required for establishing 
a direct connection from the COM port to a DB9 adapter.

„

DB9 Female to RJ45 Male Adapter – Required for conversion of your PC's 
RS232 serial port for use with the RJ45 to RJ45 Ethernet cable.  

„

Terminal Emulation Program – Required for running the CLI over a direct 
connection. The program must emulate a VT100 terminal.

„

Telnet Client – Required for remote management with the CLI. Microsoft 
Windows Operating Systems (98, 2000, NT, and XP) include a Telnet client 
which is executed using the Windows command prompt (cmd.exe). If you are 
using an operating system other than Windows, you may need to install a 
Telnet client.

Flood Configuration

Flood refers to the method in which interface modules 
handle unknown unicasts, unknown broadcasts, and 
unknown multicasts for each port.

„

Uplink – Any traffic with VLAN IDs that match a 
VLAN ID that has been configured to Uplink flood 
(default) will be allowed to flow from DSL ports to 
uplinks only (not DSL port to DSL port).

„

VLAN – Any traffic with VLAN IDs that match a 
VLAN ID that has been configured to VLAN flood 
will be allowed to flow from DSL port to uplinks and 
DSL port to DSL port.

Flood Membership 
Configuration

Specify the VLAN membership of the uplink ports 
(four fixed ports and any MIM ports).

By default all uplinks are members of all VLANs. 
However you can change it such that an uplink port is 
a member of only a certain set of VLAN IDs. In this 
case any ingress or egress traffic on an uplink port 
with a VLAN ID that the uplink port is not a member of, 
will be dropped.
