MAC VLAN
MAC VLAN technology is the way to classify VLANs according to the MAC addresses of Hosts.
A MAC address corresponds to a single VLAN ID. For the device in a MAC VLAN, if its MAC
address is bound to VLAN, the device can be connected to another member port in this VLAN
and still takes its member role effect without changing the configuration of VLAN members.
The packet in MAC VLAN is processed in the following way:
1.
When receiving an untagged packet, the switch matches the packet with the current MAC
VLAN. If the packet is matched, the switch will add a corresponding MAC VLAN tag to it. If
no MAC VLAN is matched, the switch will add a tag to the packet according to the PVID of
the received port. Thus, the packet is assigned automatically to the corresponding VLAN
for transmission.
2.
When receiving tagged packet, the switch will process it basing on the 802.1Q VLAN. If the
received port is the member of the VLAN to which the tagged packet belongs, the packet
will be forwarded normally. Otherwise, the packet will be discarded.
3.
If the MAC address of a Host is classified into 802.1Q VLAN, please set its connected port
of switch to be a member of this 802.1Q VLAN so as to ensure the packets forwarded
normally.
