Description

The RingNumber parameter determines the ring number or LAN ID for the specified port. This parameter must be defined before source route bridging is allowed on the port. A ring number must be assigned to a Frame Relay, SMDS, X.25, or Point-to-Point port in order to support source route bridging over these WAN interfaces. On a Frame Relay, SMDS, or X.25 port, the SR Service learns Frame Relay DLCIs, the SMDS individual address, or the X.25 DTE address associated with all remote bridges and their attached ring numbers. If you change the RingNumber value, the learned Frame Relay, SMDS, or X.25 routes are flushed.

IBM bridges support hexadecimal-only format for bridge and ring numbers. 3Com token ring bridges support entry of both decimal and hexadecimal format for these parameters. Hexadecimal format entry must be preceded by a 0x.

The SHow command displays the current value of the RingNumber parameter for a specific port or for all ports when the !* syntax is specified. The decimal format is displayed along with the hexadecimal format in parentheses.
