VLAN Configuration
Introduction
This Chapter describes VLAN configuration in the terminal switch.
VLAN
(Virtual Local Area Network) is a group of devices which communicate on channel level and are
combined into a virtual network that is connected to one ore more network devices (GPON terminals or
switches). VLAN is a very important tool for creating a flexible and configurable logical network topology
over the physical topology of a GPON network.
VLAN has two or more switch interfaces. A VLAN interface may be either tagged or untagged. An
outgoing packet of a tagged interface has a VLAN tag. An outgoing packet of an untagged interface has
no VLAN tags. For more details on interfaces configuration and rules refer to Chapter 15, page 54.
14.1 Adding a VLAN
Step 1.
VLAN is configured in terminal's switch. Execute the
switch
and
configure
commands
subsequently to switch to the config view.
LTP-8X> switch
LTP-8X(switch)# configure
LTP-8X(switch)(config)#
Step 2.
Add a VLAN by using the
vlan
command. Pass VID as a parameter.
LTP-8X(switch)(config)# vlan 5
LTP-8X(switch)(config-vlan)#
CLI automatically switches view to work with the VLAN. The same command is used to
configure existing VLANs.
