ok, makes sense.<br>

this means that it doesn't support the transparent bridging subtree, but <br>
it answered to a query about dot1qVlanFdbId, which means that at least <br>
some parts of the Q-BRIDGE-MIB are supported. This is confirmed here:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://support.huawei.com/enterprise/en/doc/EDOC1000062087?section=j011" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://support.huawei.com/enterprise/en/doc/EDOC1000062087?section=j011</a><br>
<br>
This is surprising because at least some versions of HP Comware support <br>
dot1qVlanFdbId.<br>
<br>
If you can get Huawei to provide information on how to query their MAC <br>
forwarding tables via SNMP, we can take a look at implementing this.<br>

Yes, support was added for this immediately after v4.8.0 was released.<br>
<br>
There are two separate MAC address tables stored by IXP Manager - <br>
Discovered addresses (handled by <a href="http://update-l2database.pl" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">update-l2database.pl</a>) and Configured <br>
addresses, which are manually configured in the IXP Manager web <br>
interface, in the main Virtual interface editing page <br>
(/interfaces/virtual/edit/xxx). If you click on the entry in the <br>
"Configured MAC Address(es)" list, this will allow you to add or deleted <br>
MAC addresses associated with the virtual interface. Use "+" in the top <br>
right-hand corner to add new addresses.<br>
<br>
To get the sflow to use the Configured MAC address list instead of the <br>
discovered list, set the following option in ixpmanager.conf:<br>
<br>
<ixp><br>
[...]<br>
macdbtype = configured<br>
</ixp><br>
<br>
Barry is working on v4.9.0, which we're hoping to release in the next <br>
couple of days, at which point this will be formally supported.<br>
