Protocol
DHCP is an IP standard designed to make administration of IP
addresses simpler. When selected, DHCP will automatically configure
IP addresses for each 8128 Strobe on the network. Alternatively the
8128 Strobe can be set to a static IP address.
VLAN Mode
Enables or Disables VLAN Tagging. VLAN Tagging is the networking
standard that supports Virtual LANs (VLANs) on an Ethernet network.
The standard defines a system of VLAN tagging for Ethernet frames
and the accompanying procedures to be used by bridges and
switches in handling such frames. The standard also provides
provisions for a quality of service prioritization scheme commonly
known as IEEE 802.1p and defines the Generic Attribute Registration
Protocol.
VLAN ID
Specifies the VLAN to which the Ethernet frame belongs. A 12-bit
field specifying the VLAN to which the Ethernet frame belongs. The
hexadecimal values of 0x000 and 0xFFF are reserved. All other
values may be used as VLAN identifiers, allowing up to 4094 VLANs.
The reserved value 0x000 indicates that the frame does not belong to
any VLAN; in this case, the 802.1Q tag specifies only a priority and is
referred to as a priority tag. On bridges, VLAN 1 (the default VLAN
ID) is often reserved for a management VLAN; this is vendor specific.
VLAN Priority
Sets the frame priority level. Otherwise known as Priority Code Point
(PCP), VLAN Priority is a 3-bit field which refers to the IEEE 802.1p
priority. It indicates the frame priority level. Values are from 0
(lowest) to 7 (highest).
Differentiated Services (6-bit DSCP value)
Can provide quality of service if the DSCP protocol is supported on
your network. Can be specified independently for SIP control packets
versus RTP audio packets.
