Configuring Bridging Services
3-26 114060 Rev. A
Parameter: RIF from Router
Default: None
Options: Any valid RIF, with entries specified in hexadecimal format
Function: Specifies the RIF required for any frame to reach the NetBIOS name you
want to add.
Instructions: After you add a NetBIOS name to the static list, specify the RIF from the
router to the station that uses the name. First, allow the bridge to use the
route discovery process to learn the correct RIF of the station. You can use
the Quick Get function accessible from Site Manager’s Statistics Manager
tool to examine the RIF by requesting the MIB object
wfBrSrNbRifEntry.wfBrSrNbRif. (Refer to Managing Routers and BNX
Platforms for instructions on using the Statistics Manager tool.) Next,
copy the RIF to this RIF from Router parameter.
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.1.1.2.10.1.6
