Setting the Egress Ports
Since port-based VLANs only govern outgoing traffic, it necessary to define the egress for all ports. An egress
port is defined as the port to which data packets are sent. A visual example is provided below.
Figure 5) Egress Port
Port-based VLAN egress ports for Figure 5:
Egress port for Port 0 : Port 4
Egress port for Port 1 : Port 2
Egress port for Port 2 : Port 1
Egress port for Port 3 : Port 4
Egress port for Port 4 : Port 3
Each port can only send data to its egress port. In this example, each port has only one egress port, but on the
PRV-1059 it is possible for each to have between zero and four egress ports.
There are 5 egress port configuration schemes ranging from “Set Egress Ports for Port 0” to “Set Egress Ports
for Port 4” on left side of the VLAN GUI window. The user can enable any possible VLAN configuration by
checking or un-checking these boxes. When each of these check-boxes is checked, there is a coordinate
displayed in the “New VLAN Configuration” graphics indicating the setting of the VLAN with a line and an arrow
pointing to the port where the data packet will be sent. There are also “all PORTs” and “Clear” buttons on right of
each scheme which can be used to set or clear all check-boxes.
