Status
Use the Protocol Based VLAN Status page to add and remove Protocol-based Virtual
Local Area Networks (PBVLANs). In a PBVLAN, traffic is bridged through specified
ports based on the protocol. PBVLANS allow you to define a packet filter that the
device uses as the matching criteria to determine whether a particular packet
belongs to a particular VLAN. PBVLANs are most often used in environments where
network segments contain hosts running multiple protocols. PBVLANs can help opti-
mize network traffic patterns because protocol-specific broadcast messages are sent
only to hosts that use the protocols specified in the PBVLAN.
