VLAN

The type of screen you see here depends on the VLAN Type you selected in the 
Switch Setup screen. This chapter shows you how to configure 802.1Q tagged 
and port-based VLANs. 

8.1  Introduction to IEEE 802.1Q Tagged VLANs     

A tagged VLAN uses an explicit tag (VLAN ID) in the MAC header to identify the 
VLAN membership of a frame across bridges - they are not confined to the switch 
on which they were created. The VLANs can be created statically by hand or 
dynamically through GVRP. The VLAN ID associates a frame with a specific VLAN 
and provides the information that switches need to process the frame across the 
network. A tagged frame is four bytes longer than an untagged frame and 
contains two bytes for the TPID (Tag Protocol Identifier, residing within the type/
length field of the Ethernet frame) and two bytes for the TCI (Tag Control 
Information, starting after the source address field of the Ethernet frame). 

The CFI (Canonical Format Indicator) is a single-bit flag, always set to zero for 
Ethernet switches. If a frame received at an Ethernet port has a CFI set to 1, then 
that frame should not be forwarded as it is to an untagged port. The remaining 
twelve bits define the VLAN ID, giving a possible maximum number of 4,096 
VLANs. Note that user priority and VLAN ID are independent of each other. A 
frame with VID (VLAN Identifier) of null (0) is called a priority frame, meaning that 
only the priority level is significant and the default VID of the ingress port is given 
as the VID of the frame. Of the 4096 possible VIDs, a VID of 0 is used to identify 
priority frames and the value 4095 (FFF) is reserved, so the maximum possible 
number of VLAN configurations is 4,094. 

8.1.1  Forwarding Tagged and Untagged Frames 

Each port on the Switch is capable of passing tagged or untagged frames. To 
forward a frame from an 802.1Q VLAN-aware switch to an 802.1Q VLAN-unaware
