I have a customer with the requirement to prioritize LAT traffic on the RouteAbout (DRS v2.0). It seems that BRS can be applied globally to ASRT (i.e all bridged traffic), is it possible to give higher priority to LATover other bridged protocols (ex. Netbeui, MOP, etc..) within ASRT. Has any run in similar situation ? Thanx, Jean-Yves. Sydney, OZ. [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]

I believe it is possible to tag up to 5 MAC addresses and then assign the tags to BRS. You could use the source or destination address of the Terminal Servers. So one question would be do you have more than 5 Terminal Servers at both ends? Maybe one of the routeabout engineers could verify this. [Posted by WWW Notes gateway] | |||||
| 815.2 | Assigning LAT priority from within BRS | MARVIN::GARVEY | Thu Apr 10 1997 09:17 | 17 | |
Hi Jean-Yves, Yes, I agree with what was suggested in the previous reply! The BRS code is unable to distinguish any particular protocol (i.e. LAT) within bridged traffic. The only way I am aware of to proiritise bridged traffic is to use the MAC filtering facility. However this will assign the higher priority to all bridged traffic to and from the specified MAC address (i.e. the terminal server). Configure MAC filtering with a 'filter list' which contains two filters (i.e.type source and destinaton for the TS MAC address), and assign a TAG to this filter list. From within BRS, you can then assign this tag a priority within a particular class. Kevin. | |||||
