Configuring Bridging Services

Databases
To connect the TB and SR networks, the translation bridge uses two databases.
The following sections describe each database.
Forwarding Database
The translation bridge adds addresses to the forwarding table as it learns them
from the network. Therefore, the forwarding table size should be configured large
enough to hold the addresses it learns from both the TB and the SR network.
Both the transparent bridge and the translation bridge use the same forwarding
table to make decisions on where to send packets. The following sections discuss
how the translation bridge makes these decisions.
Route Information Field Database
The route information field database includes routing information for all known
stations on the network. The translation bridge uses this database to provide
source routing information for frames it forwards from the TB network to the SR
network.
When the translation bridge learns an address on the SR network, it adds the RIF
information to the RIF database and adds the address and port information to the
forwarding database. When the TB network forwards a frame to the SR network,
the forwarding database determines the correct port to be used to reach the
destination. The RIF database determines the correct RIF to insert in the frame so
it can successfully traverse the SR network.
Database Aging Mechanism
The information that the translation bridge inserts into the forwarding database
and the RIF database has an aging attribute that determines how long the
information remains in the databases. Each time the translation bridge receives a
frame from a particular SR station address, the age in both databases is reset.
When the aging attribute reaches a user-configurable value, the translation bridge
deletes the entries for that SR station from both the RIF database and the
forwarding database. This aging mechanism allows you to control how quickly
the translation bridge adapts to changes in the SR network topology.
