4.17.2 Protocol-based VLAN
The network devices required to support multiple protocols cannot be easily grouped into a common VLAN. This may
require non-standard devices to pass traffic between different VLANs in order to encompass all the devices
participating in a specific protocol. This kind of configuration deprives users of the basic benefits of VLANs, including
security and easy accessibility.
To avoid these problems, you can configure this switch with protocol-based VLANs that divide the physical network
into logical VLAN groups for each required protocol. When a frame is received at a port, its VLAN membership can
then be determined based on the protocol type being used by the inbound packets.
