| Description | The cause of the creation of this conceptual row.
It could be one of the three methods: (1) user
configured, including via management protocol
set operations, configuration file, command line
or equivalent methods; (2) learned from the
partner DLSw Capabilities Exchange messages;
and (3) dynamic, e.g., learned from ICanReach
messages, or LAN explorer frames. Since only
individual MAC addresses can be dynamically learned,
dynamic entries will all have a mask of all FFs.
The public versus private distinction for user-
configured resources applies only to local resources
(UC remote resources are private), and indicates
whether that resource should be advertised in
capabilities exchange messages sent by this node. |
