Introduction

Load MIB

The switch Load MIB defines upload, download and copy of
application software and configuration information. The Load MIB
consists of two tables:

The genOpTable — a conceptual table where each row
represents a file operation that can be performed by the
switch. For example,

localConfigFileCopy

is a function

that the switch software supports. Therefore, the genOpTable
should always display the conceptual row representing the
indicated

operation.

The genAppTable — functions as a file system directory. Each
row in the genAppTable represents a file stored in ram,
nvram, flash, or bootprom. By using this representation, the
network management device can walk the entire
genAppTable to learn what files (along with their type and
location) are resident in the system.

Spanning Tree Modes

Spanning tree protocol is used to prevent loops from forming in
your network. The spanning tree algorithm creates a single path
through the network by ensuring that if more than one path exists
between two parts of a network, only one of these paths is used,
while the others are blocked.

Spanning Tree
Protocol Bridge
Options

All multiservice switches support the following four Spanning Tree
Protocol options:

IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree

Per-VLAN Spanning Tree
