  • Page 32: Chapter 6 Vlan

    VLAN Chapter 6 The traditional Ethernet is a data network communication technology based on CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detect) via shared communication medium. Through the traditional Ethernet, the overfull hosts in LAN will result in serious collision, flooding broadcasts, poor performance or even breakdown of the Internet. Though connecting the LANs through switches can avoid the serious collision, the flooding broadcasts cannot be prevented, which will occupy plenty of bandwidth resources, causing potential serious security problems.
  • Page 33 Network security is improved. VLANs cannot communicate with one another directly. That is, a host in a VLAN cannot access resources in another VLAN directly, unless routers or Layer 3 switches are used. Network configuration workload for the host is reduced. VLAN can be used to group specific hosts.
  • Page 34: Mtu Vlan

    In this User Guide, the tagged packet refers to the packet with VLAN tag whereas the untagged packet refers to the packet without VLAN tag. The VLAN module is mainly for VLAN configuration, including four submenus: MTU VLAN, Port Based VLAN, 802.1Q VLAN and 802.1Q PVID Setting. 6.1 MTU VLAN On this page you can choose to enable MTU VLAN mode and configure VLANs.

When adding the tag header PVID: to the received untagged packet, the switch will automatically uses this PVID value as the VLAN ID of the added tag.
  • Page 39: Chapter 7 Qos

    Chapter 7 QoS (Quality of Service) functions to provide different quality of service for various network applications and requirements and optimize the bandwidth resource distribution so as to provide a network service experience of a better quality.  This switch classifies the ingress packets, maps the packets to four different priority queues and then forwards the packets according to WRR scheduling algorithms to implement QoS function.
  • Page 40 QoS Mode  This switch implements three priority modes based on port, on 802.1P and on DSCP. By default, the priority mode based on port is enabled and the other two modes are optional. 1. Port Based When port-base QoS mode is enabled, the user can manually map the ingress packets of the port to four different priority queues.
  • Page 41: Qos Basic

    3. DSCP based Figure 7-3 IP datagram As shown in the figure above, the ToS (Type of Service) in an IP header contains 8 bits. The first three bits indicate IP precedence in the range of 0 to 7. RFC2474 re-defines the ToS field in the IP packet header, which is called the DS field.
