The following output example shows the show interfaces ethernet slot/port
command with the
forward-all-control command enabled.
Brocade(config-if-e1000-1/1)# forward-all-protocol
Brocade(config-if-e1000-1/1)# show interfaces ethernet 1/1
GigabitEthernet1/1 is up, line protocol is up
STP Root Guard is disabled, STP BPDU Guard is disabled
Hardware is GigabitEthernet, address is 001b.eda3.f841 (bia 001b.eda3.f841)
Configured speed auto, actual 1Gbit, configured duplex fdx, actual fdx

The forward-all-protocol command forwards the following protocols by hardware instead of the CPU.
For L2: UDLD (drop), FDP, CDP and MRP
For L3: IP broadcast (255.255.255.255), IP multicast ((224.0.0.x, 224.0.1.x) including RIP, OSPF,
PIM, VRRP), ARP, DHCP, BOOTP, IS-IS, OSPF, ND6, RIPng, OSPFv3, PIMv6, anycast solicited node,
DHCPv6
This command cannot be used on an MPLS interface as it will break existing neighbor relationship.
VLL extended counters
With the support of ingress and egress port VLAN counters on the Brocade MLXe series 8x10G
module, the port VLAN counters are enabled by default for all the Layer 2 Virtual Private Network
(L2VPN) instances (VPLS, VLL, and Local VLL). As a result, the user can count the number of
packets and bytes that are received and sent on a particular endpoint or all the endpoints of the
L2VPN instances. The L2VPN extended counters can count all the types of packets including IPv4,
IPv6, MPLS, MPLS over tagged, Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE), GRE over tagged, unicast,
and multicast. The user can also count per-priority statistics on each endpoint by enabling
per-VLAN, port, and priority-based accounting mode on the ingress and egress counters at the
global configuration level.
NOTE
The extended counters for dual tag endpoints are not supported both on the ingress and egress
ports.
The port VLAN counters are enabled by default for all the VLL instances. To disable the extended
counters globally for all the VLL instances, enter the following command.
Brocade(config-mpls)# vll-policy
Brocade(config-mpls-vll-policy)# no extended-counters
Syntax: [no] extended-counters
