An access port can belong to only one VLAN. Usually, ports directly connected to PCs are
configured as access ports.
z
A trunk port can carry multiple VLANs to receive and send traffic for them. Except traffic of the
default VLAN, traffic passes through a trunk port will be VLAN tagged. Usually, ports connecting
network devices are configured as trunk ports to allow members of the same VLAN to
communicate with each other across multiple network devices.
z
Like a trunk port, a hybrid port can carry multiple VLANs to receive and send traffic for them. Unlike
a trunk port, a hybrid port allows traffic of all VLANs to pass through VLAN untagged. You can
configure a port connected to a network device or user terminal as a hybrid port for access link
connectivity or trunk connectivity.
A hybrid port allows the packets of multiple VLANs to be sent untagged, but a trunk port only allows the
packets of the default VLAN to be sent untagged.
The three types of ports can coexist on the same device.
Assigning an Ethernet Port to Specified VLANs
You can assign an Ethernet port to a VLAN to forward packets for the VLAN, thus allowing the VLAN on
the current switch to communicate with the same VLAN on the peer switch.
An access port can be assigned to only one VLAN, while a hybrid or trunk port can be assigned to
multiple VLANs.
Before assigning an access or hybrid port to a VLAN, create the VLAN first.
Configuring the Default VLAN ID for a Port
An access port can belong to only one VLAN. Therefore, the VLAN an access port belongs to is also the
default VLAN of the access port. A hybrid/trunk port can belong to multiple VLANs, so you should
configure a default VLAN ID for the port.
After a port is added to a VLAN and configured with a default VLAN, the port receives and sends
packets in a way related to its link type. For detailed description, refer to the following tables:
