2709.0. "DSAP Filtering" by CGOOA::DANYLUK () Tue Sep 05 1995 22:31

    I have a customer with the following Network  requirements, they have
    to seperate networks, what he would like to do is to have the 900MX
    not pass any Bridge PDU's so if the one network is going thru spanning
    tree changes the other network will not be affected. It is my
    understanding that Spanning tree cannot be turned off on the 900mx
    bridge, is this true. The customer also tried to filter out 802.3 DSAP,
    after setting up this filter the packets were still being passed
    between the two networks. Can someone tell me how to segregate the two
    networks so both networks can have seperate root bridges, Can I turn
    off spanning tree, what filter do I need to set up to stop one networks
    spanning tree changes from affecting the other network.

    If you have your customer upgrade their DECswitch90EF (DECbridge900MX)
    with the latest image defba_152.bin, your customer will be able to
    disable spanning tree on individual ports.
