Is a VLAN tag required on Management packets?
This refers only to
management from the DATA and/or OPTICS ports. A
Yes
response will
prompt a request for a VLAN ID. Configure both Host and Remote units
with the same settings.
Are VLAN IDs required on the EXT port?
Answering
Yes
to the first ques-
tion prompts the second question. Each unit can be configured differently.
Transparency Disabled
If
Transparency Mode is not enabled
, the following screen will appear
and up to 12 VLAN IDs can be assigned.
All ports on the iMcV-FiberLinX can be configured to accept/transmit
VLAN-tagged packets. To enable VLAN functionality on the iMcV-
FiberLinX, there must be a Y (Yes) under Tags for either the DATA port or
the OPTICS port (or both); if there is a N for the DATA or OPTICS ports,
VLAN functionality is disabled on that port. Valid VLAN IDs are 1 to 4,094.
Priority for port and SNMP VLAN traffic can also be set.
Ports enabled for Tags (Tagged Port) will only accept and transmit VLAN-
tagged packets. If a port is not enabled for Tags (Untagged Port), it will only
accept and transmit untagged packets.
NOTE
If only using the EXT MGMT port for management, answer
Yes
to ques-
tions 1 and 2, then disable management on the Data ports by setting DIP
switches 2 and 3 to OFF.
