Description
Primary TPID
The two-byte hex EtherType value to be used as the first 16 bits of the
DVLAN tag. The value configured in this field is used as the primary
TPID for all interfaces that are enabled for DVLAN tagging. The Pri-
mary TPID can be one of the following:
0x8100: IEEE 802.1Q customer VLAN tag type
0x88a8: Virtual Metropolitan Area Network (VMAN) tag type
Custom Tag: User-defined EtherType value
Secondary TPIDs
The two-byte hex EtherType values available to be configured as sec-
ondary TPIDs. Only the options you configure as Secondary TPIDs
can be selected as the Primary TPID. To add Secondary TPIDs to the
list, click
button and select one or more of the following options:
802.1Q Tag: IEEE 802.1Q customer VLAN tag type, represented
by the EtherType value 0x8100. This value indicates that the
frame includes a VLAN tag. If this value is already configured as
a primary or secondary TPID, it cannot be selected.
vMAN Tag: Virtual Metropolitan Area Network (VMAN) tag type,
represented by the EtherType value 0x88a8. This value indicates
that the frame is DVLAN tagged. If this value is already config-
ured as a primary or secondary TPID, it cannot be selected.
Custom Tag: User-defined EtherType value. If you select this
option, specify the EtherType value in the available field.
