Abstract

See full text

Counters are implemented within a bridge device so that adequate forwarding and transmission statistics can be monitored. The counting of frame discards as a result of ingress and egress rules implemented within the bridge are utilized within the IEEE 802.IQ VLAN bridge model to calculate the number of frames forwarded and the number of frames transmitted.
