2 WCM1800 Applications
2.1 WCM1800 Normal Mode
In this application, the WCM1800 is operating with Traffic Isolation Disabled. In this mode,
the WCM1800 acts as a simple, layer 2, 5 port switch with packets being switched based
on MAC address alone. The WCM1800 supports both local and remote switching.
Management traffic is not isolated from the through data traffic, and both units may be
managed from any port.
The WAN link comprises 8 E1 circuits running E1 G.704 CRC-4 framing with GFP packet
encapsulation and VCAT/LCAS to give a combined trunk bandwidth of 15.87Mbps for
payload. In this mode, the untagged frames are directed to VCG1.
2.2 WCM1800 VLAN Trunk Mode
