Protocol Based Vlan Group Configuration - NETGEAR GS728TS Admin Manual

GS728TS, GS728TPS, GS752TS, and GS752TPS Gigabit Smart Switches
To configure a MAC-based VLAN:
1. In the MAC Address field, specify the valid MAC Address to be bound to a VLAN ID.
This field is configurable only when a MAC Based VLAN is created. Select this entry.
2. The VLAN ID field shows the VLAN ID. A valid ID can be any number in the range of
(1–4093).
3. To add the entry to the MAC address-to-VLAN mapping table, click Add.
4. To remove an entry from the table, select the check box associated with the entry to remove
and click Delete.
5. Click Cancel to cancel the configuration on the screen and reset the data on the screen to

Protocol Based VLAN Group Configuration

Use the protocol-based VLAN feature to define filtering criteria for untagged packets of a
specific protocol type. By default, if you do not configure any port- (IEEE 802.1Q) or protocol
based VLANs, untagged packets will be assigned to VLAN 1. You can override this behavior
by defining either port-based VLANs or protocol based VLANs, or both. Tagged packets are
always handled according to the IEEE 802.1Q standard, and are not included in protocol
based VLANs.
If you assign a port to a protocol based VLAN for a specific protocol, untagged frames
received on that port for that protocol will be assigned the protocol-based VLAN ID you
configure. Untagged frames received on the port for other protocols will be assigned the Port
VLAN ID which is either the default PVID (1) or a PVID you have specifically assigned to the
port using the Port VLAN Configuration screen.
You define a protocol-based VLAN by creating a group. Each group has a one-to-one
relationship with a VLAN ID, can include one to 16 protocol definitions, and can include
multiple ports.
