Pvid - EnGenius EWS Series User Manual

PVID

When an untagged packet enters a Switch port, the PVID (Port VLAN ID) will be attached to the untagged
packet and forward frames to a VLAN specified VID part of the PVID. A packet received on a given port
would be assigned that port's PVID and then be forwarded to the port that corresponded to the packet's
destination address. If the PVID of the port that received the packet is different from the PVID of the port
that is to transmit the packet, the Switch will drop the packet. Within the Switch, different PVIDs mean
different VLANs, so VLAN identification based upon the PVIDs cannot create VLANs that extend outside a
given Switch. If no VLANs are defined on the Switch, all ports are then assigned to a default VLAN with a
PVID equal to 1.
