Chapter 4: Software Description
• Packet Type: Sets the interface to accept all frame types, including tagged or
untagged frames, or only tagged frames (Default: All). If the Packet Type is set
to “All,” the port can accept incoming tagged and untagged packets. Any
received packets that are untagged are assigned to the default VLAN. Any
tagged packets will be dropped unless the port is a member of the VLAN
identified by the VLAN tag in the packet. If the Packet Type is set to “Tagged
Only,” the port will drop untagged packets and will only receive tagged packets.
Tagged packets will be dropped unless the port is a member of the VLAN
identified by the VLAN tag in the packet. Switches should be connected to each
other with the Packet Type set to “Tagged Only.”
• PVID: The PVID (Port VLAN ID) is associated with untagged ingress packets. It is
assigned to untagged frames received on the specified interface. The PVID has
no effect on ports that have Packet Type set to “Tagged Only” (Default PVID:1).
You can’t remove a port from VLAN 1 unless its PVID has been changed to
something other than 1. Outgoing packets are tagged unless the packet’s VLAN
ID is the same as the PVID. When the PVID is set to “None,” all outgoing
packets are tagged.
NOTE: If you select “Tagged Only” mode for a port, we recommend setting the
PVID to “None” as the standard configuration.
4.1.4 Aggregation
Port trunk allows multiple links to be bundled together and act as a single physical
link for increased throughput. It provides load balancing, and redundancy of links
in a switched inter-network. Actually, the link does not have an inherent total
bandwidth equal to the sum of its component physical links. Traffic in a trunk is
distributed across an individual link within the trunk using a method called a hash
algorithm. The hash algorithm automatically applies load balancing to the ports in
the trunk. A port failure within the trunk group causes the network traffic to be
directed to the remaining ports. Load balancing is maintained whenever a link in a
trunk is lost or returned to service.
