xStack DES-6500 Modular Layer 3 Chassis Ethernet Switch CLI Manual

VLAN C
OMMANDS
The xStack DES-6500 incorporates protocol-based VLANs. This standard, defined by the IEEE 802.1v standard maps packets
to protocol-defined VLANs by examining the type octet within the packet header to discover the type of protocol associated
with it. After assessing the protocol, the Switch will forward the packets to all ports within the protocol-assigned VLAN. This
feature will benefit the administrator by better balancing load sharing and enhancing traffic classification. The Switch supports
fifteen (15) pre-defined protocols for configuring protocol-based VLANs. The user may also choose a protocol that is not one of
the fifteen defined protocols by properly configuring the
userDefined
protocol VLAN. The supported protocols for the protocol
VLAN function on this Switch include IP, IPX, DEC LAT, SNAP, NetBIOS, AppleTalk, XNS, SNA, IPv6, RARP and VINES.
The VLAN commands in the Command Line Interface (CLI) are listed (along with the appropriate parameters) in the following
table.

Description
This command allows the creation of a VLAN on the Switch. The user
may choose between an 802.1Q VLAN or a protocol-based VLAN.
