are connected to normal VLAN aware switches at the customer network
and the network ports are those which are connected to the service
provider network. To tunnel the packets through MAN, QinQ needs to
be enabled on network ports
• Packet Type – Sets the interface to accept all frame types, including
tagged or untagged frames, or only tagged frames. When set to receive
all frame types, any received frames that are untagged are assigned to the
default VLAN. PCs should be connected to ports with Packet Type set
to "All". PCs cannot, in general, send or receive tagged packets. Switches
should be connected to each other with Packet Type set to "Tagged". If
the Packet Type is set to "All", the port can accept incoming tagged and
untagged packets. Untagged packets will be associated with the VLAN
identified by the PVID. Tagged packets will be dropped unless the port
is a member of the VLAN identified by the VLAN tag in the packet.
Outgoing packets will be tagged unless the packet's VLAN ID is the
same as the PVID. If the Packet Type is set to "Tagged", the port will
drop untagged packets and will only send and 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. The PVID has no
effect in this case.(Option: All, Tagged; Default: All)
• PVID – VLAN ID assigned to untagged frames received on the
interface. The PVID is (Port VLAN ID) is the VLAN ID that is
associated with untagged, ingress packets. It is not possible to remove a
port from VLAN 1 unless its PVID has been changed to something other
than 1. The PVID has no effect on ports that have Packet Type set to
Tagged. (Default: 1)
