3852.0. "Jabber Blocking on DECswitch 900EEs" by NETRIX::"Youda.Kopel@meopc113.pc.meo.dec.com" (Youda Kopel) Tue Sep 10 1996 01:05

Hi there ,


Can someone please tell if the DECSwitch 900EE as a store-and-forward
switch, can it provides automatic jabber blocking?  I know it can 
block Runts, but I'm concern with blocking of Jabbers.

Many Thanks in advance.

Youda Kopel,

NPB Australia.

Hello,

Store and forward switches in general (including the DECswitch 900EE) only
forward good ("error free") frames.  The frame has to be well formed, with
a good CRC in order to be forwarded.  Jabber is blocked.
