Port-Based Vlan - Planet VC-820M User Manual

4.4.3 Port-based VLAN

Packets can go among only members of the same VLAN group. Note all unselected ports are treated as belonging to
another single VLAN. If the port-based VLAN is enabled, the VLAN-tagging is ignored.
In order for an end station to send packets to different VLANs, it itself has to be either capable of tagging packets it sends
with VLAN tags or attached to a VLAN-aware bridge that is capable of classifying and tagging the packet with a different
VLAN ID based on not only default PVID but also other information about the packet, such as the protocol.
