DRA-2 UNIVERSAL COMMUNICATION NODE
41/158
USER GUIDE - Rev.5 (January 2018)
The fact that in relation to the equipment, the definition of the VLAN and assigning of the
ports to each one is done based on configuration parameters offers great flexibility, as it is
possible to alter the topology of the VLANs without having to make changes to the
infrastructure.
The exchange of packets between equipment belonging to different VLANs can only be
made on the routing level (L3). The DRA-2 has the capacity to perform this function
between the different VLANs defined in the equipment, so that the traffic between them
admits more control options.
The main IP address and its mask can be obtained automatically from the DHCP client,
which is known as dynamic or NON-static configuration. Users can activate this service
through the
Checkbox
control with the
Static IP
label. When the control is marked, the
equipment uses the data provided by the user.

PVLAN allow the user to employ a single IP address range for a whole L2 domain while
keeping privacy among different VLANs.
PVLAN defines three types of VLAN: Primary, Isolated and Community.
There are four behaviours for the interfaces: Promiscuous, Isolated, Community and Trunk.
