The User Interface
This chapter documents User Interface (
UI
) commands to configure encapsulation options.
For documentation on Command Line Interface (
CLI
) commands to configure encapsulation
options, see the Text-Based Configuration CLI Reference Guide.
♦ Important Note ♦
In Release 4.4 and later, the Omni Switch/Router is
factory-configured to boot up in
CLI
(Command Line
Interface) mode, rather than in
UI
(User Interface)
mode. See Chapter 4, “The User Interface,” for docu-
mentation on changing from
CLI
mode to
UI
mode.
Simple encapsulation options can be configured through the
modvp, addvp, crgp
commands.
More advanced encapsulation options can be found in the commands under the
Switch
menu.
Essentially, the forwarding code is now capable of applying the transformation function per
protocol per encapsulation per port for flooded/mcast traffic and per protocol per encapsula-
tion per destination MAC address for forwarded unicast traffic. The old interface provides a
small subset of these possible port translation options.
