MAC-Based Group
MAC-based VLAN classification enables packets to be classified according to their source MAC
address. You can then define MAC-to-VLAN mapping per interface.
You can define several MAC-based groups, which each group containing different MAC
addresses.
These MAC-based groups can be assigned to specific ports/LAGs. MAC-based groups cannot
contain overlapping ranges of MAC addresses on the same port.
The following table describes the availability of MAC-based groups in various SKUs:

To define a MAC-based group:
1. Assign a MAC address to a VLAN group ID (using the MAC-Based Groups page).
2. For each required interface:
•
Assign the VLAN group to a VLAN (using the Mac-Based VLAN page). The
interfaces must be in General mode.
If the interface does not belong to the VLAN, manually assign it to the VLAN using
•
the VLAN Membership page.
