❼ Inbound rate limit: Setting the inbound rate limit is possible on DSL ports,
but is likely of less interest than on Ethernet ports, since the DSL data rates
are primarily limited by the rate of the DSL line. See also
and
❼ Outbound traffic shaping: Setting the outbound rate limit (traffic shaping)
is possible on DSL ports, but is likely of less interest than on Ethernet ports,
since the DSL data rates are primarily limited by the rate of the DSL line.
Furthermore, outbound traffic shaping in frames per second mode is not
available on DSL ports. See also
and
❼ Fall-back default-VID: The fall-back default VID setting is only of interest
for the special case when untagged packets are received over a link only
associated with tagged VLANs.
Ethernet settings for port speed/duplex mode, and MDI/MDIX mode do not apply
to xDSL ports, thus are not configurable.
Note
As of WeOS v4.17.0, enabling/disabling flow control (as described in section
) has no effect on xDSL ports.
