VLAN Configuration in 802.1Q Tag Based VLAN Mode
General Overview
802.1Q VLAN configuration consists of the following four elements:
1. Creating all VLANs in the VLAN database.
2. Configuring an incoming
untagged packet’s VLAN association rule: this is
accomplished by configuring the PVID setting on each individual port.
3. Configuring the ports that are associated with a VLAN to allow the packets that
belong to that VLAN to exit and enter the switch through that port.
4. Configuring the tag action on the outgoing packets for each VLAN, that is to say,
deciding on whether or not an outgoing packet will be tagged with the VLAN number
that the packet belongs to.
All ports on the EtherWAN Managed Switch can be configured with different Port Types that
have different tagging restrictions as defined below.
Access Port
- If a port is configured to be an Access Port, then this port can only be
a member of a single VLAN based on
the Access Port’s
PVID VLAN
setting, and this
port’s outgoing packets cannot be modified to contain a VLAN Tag.
Trunk Port
- If a port is configured to be a Trunk Port, then this port can be a
member of multiple VLANs. T
his port’s outgoing packets will be automatically
modified to contain a VLAN tag of the VLAN that the packet belongs to, with the
exception of the PVID VLAN on that port. The PVID VLAN on a Trunk Port will not be
automatically modified to contain a VLAN tag of the PVID VLAN.
Hybrid Port
- A Hybrid Port has no restriction on it. If a port is configured to be a
Hybrid Port, then this port can be a member of multiple VLANs, and this port’s
outgoing packets can be configured to be either with or without a VLAN tag of the
VLAN that the packet belongs to, including the PVID VLAN of the Hybrid Port.
For all three types of ports above, if an incoming packet contains a VLAN tag, then the
packet’s VLAN association rule will be based on the VLAN Tag.
