Parameter description:
VLAN Mode:
Port-based: Port-based VLAN is defined by port. Any packet coming in or going out from any one port of a port-based VLAN will be
accepted. No filtering criterion applies in port-based VLAN. The only criterion is the physical port you connect to. For example, a port-based
VLAN named PVLAN-1 contains port members Port 1 & 2 & 3 & 4. If you are on port 1, you can communicate with port 2&3&4. If you are on
port 5, then you cannot talk to them. Each port-based VLAN must be assigned a group name. This switch can support up to maximal 24
port-based VLAN groups.
Tag-based: Tag-based VLAN identifies its member by VID. This is quite different from port-based VLAN. If there are any more rules in ingress
filtering list or egress filtering list, the packet will be screened to determine if it can be forwarded. The switch supports 802.1q. For more
details, see Chapter 3.
Each tag-based VLAN must be assigned a VLAN name and a VLAN ID. Valid VLAN IDs are 1–4094. User can create total up to 4094 Tag
VLAN groups.
