Assign And Manage Vlan Profiles - NETGEAR ProSafe FVS318N Reference Manual

When you create a VLAN profile, assign LAN ports to the VLAN, and enable the VLAN, the
LAN ports that are members of the VLAN can send and receive both tagged and untagged
packets. Untagged packets that enter these LAN ports are assigned to the default PVID 1;
packets that leave these LAN ports with the same default PVID 1 are untagged. All other
packets are tagged according to the VLAN ID that you assigned to the VLAN when you
created the VLAN profile.
This is a typical scenario for a configuration with an IP phone that has two Ethernet ports, one
of which is connected to the wireless VPN firewall, the other one to another device:
Packets coming from the IP phone to the wireless VPN firewall LAN port are tagged. Packets
passing through the IP phone from the connected device to the wireless VPN firewall LAN
port are untagged. When you assign the wireless VPN firewall LAN port to a VLAN, packets
entering and leaving the port are tagged with the VLAN ID. However, untagged packets
entering the wireless VPN firewall LAN port are forwarded to the default VLAN with PVID 1;
packets that leave the LAN port with the same default PVID 1 are untagged.
Note: The configuration of the DHCP options for the default VLAN is
explained in
