Configuring Bridge Parameters
ACE-3105, ACE-3205 supports LAN-to-LAN bridging to allow backhauling of
Ethernet traffic originating from the cellular site/Node B. Accordingly, the two
Ethernet ports of the unit can be used as bridge ports. The bridge functionality
includes support for VLAN-aware bridge in IVL mode, configurable stacking VLAN
tag stripping, learned MAC addresses (up to 512), configurable aging time, and
mapping of the VLAN priority vs. four Ethernet transmit queues.
