Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of network technology, in particular to a port configuration method and switching equipment. Background technique
[0002] At present, in the metropolitan area network or enterprise network of multicast application, there is a common layer-2 network topology. In order to ensure the reliability of the network, the layer-2 network generally adopts MSTP (Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol, Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol) or RRPP (Rapid Ring Protection Protocol, fast ring network protection protocol) to selectively block redundant network links to achieve the purpose of eliminating network layer 2 loops, and at the same time back up the links. In addition, in Layer 2 forwarding, in order to prevent multicast traffic from spreading, Layer 2 switches will configure IGMP Snooping (Internet Group Management Protocol, Internet Group Management Protocol snooping) function to establish Layer 2 multicast forwarding tables, and conf...
