If none is specified, the trunk is not automatically re-enabled, but individual
ports can be re-enabled by using the enable switch port command for
thrashaction=portdisable
or linkdisable, and the enable switch port vlan
command for thrashaction=vlandisable. The default is 1 second.
set switch hwfilter mode
Syntax
SET SWItch HWFilter MODe={PSF|NPSF}
Description
This new command changes the router or switch’s classifier-based packet filter
mode, and is only valid for models with 48 ports (two switch instances). Use
this command to ensure that packets are filtered as expected on 48-port routers
or switches.
You can change the hardware filter mode after filters have been entered. When
you change modes, the filter entries remain in the original order.
The mode parameter specifies the filtering mode the router or switch is set in.
The default mode is psf.
When you specify psf, the router or switch expects port-specific filters to be
entered first. Use this mode when you want non port-specific filters to override
the port-specific filters for certain circumstances. If you add a port-specific
filter after the non port-specific filters, the router or switch may still use a
matching non port-specific filter when the packet travels between ports on
different switch instances.
When you specify npsf, the router or switch expects non port-specific filters to
be entered first. Use this mode when you want port-specific filters to override
the non port-specific filters for certain circumstances. If you add a non
port-specific filter after the port-specific filters, the router or switch may not
use the port-specific filter when the packet travels between ports on different
switch instances.
Example
To set the hardware filter mode to non port-specific filters first, use the
command:
set swi hwf mod=npsf
set switch hwrouteupdate
Syntax
SET SWItch HWRouteupdate=1..maximum
Description
This new command sets the length of the hardware route update queue.
The hwrouteupdate parameter specifies the maximum possible number of
entries in the queue. The maximum and default values depend on the amount of
memory on the switch, as shown in the following table:
Memory Size (Mbytes)

(number of entries)
