Ports/Data VLANs
Enter
Y
under Tags for the OPTICS port and/or DATA port.
• If Tags are enabled for one type of port (OPTICS or DATA), a VLAN ID
and Priority must be assigned to the other port in the
Ports
section.
When a tagged packet arrives on the Tagged Port, the iMcV-FiberLinX
forwards the packet to the Untagged Port only if the VLAN ID in the
tag matches the VLAN ID defined for the Untagged Port. If an
untagged packet is received on the Untagged Port, the iMcV-FiberLinX
adds a tag with the specified VLAN ID to the packet before forwarding
it to the Tagged port.
• If Tags are enabled on both the DATA port and the OPTICS port, assign
up to 10 VLAN IDs in the
Data VLANs
section (rather than one in the
Ports
section).
Management VLANS
SNMP
When using VLAN functionality, always define an SNMP VLAN ID and
Priority if management is enabled on any port configured for VLAN-tagged
traffic. Also in this section, the EXT MGMT port can be configured to
accept/pass VLAN-tagged packets by typing
Y
under EXT Tag.
RDB (Remote Database For Host/Remote Units)
When installing the iMcV-FiberLinX in pairs AND using VLAN functionality
(i.e. defining User VLAN IDs), a VLAN ID MUST be specified for
RDB
;
the iMcV-FiberLinX uses this VLAN ID to communicate between Host and
Remote units. Enter the same VLAN ID under
RDB
on both the Host and
Remote units.
Priorities/Base VLAN Priority
The iMcV-FiberLinX has two outgoing queues; one for high priority traf-
fic and one for low priority traffic. A Base VLAN Priority high or low can
be set in iView². If the Base VLAN Priority is 4, 0-3 are low priority and 4-
7 are high priority. If the Base VLAN Priority is changed to 3, 0-2 are low
priority and 3-7 are high priority.
In the
VLAN Configuration
screen, enter a Priority (0 - 7) for each port
and SNMP, if desired.
