Configure Protocol-Based VLAN Groups

You can use a protocol-based VLAN to define filtering criteria for untagged packets. By
default, if you do not configure any port-based (IEEE 802.1Q) or protocol-based VLANs,
untagged packets are 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 are assigned the protocol-based VLAN ID. Untagged
frames received on the port for other protocols are assigned the Port VLAN ID, either the
default PVID (1) or a PVID you 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 three protocol definitions, and can include
multiple ports. When you create a group, you specify a name and a group ID is assigned
automatically.
