23.1 Purpose
This chapter provides procedures to administer the VLAN configuration.
23.2 Overview
When a Core-E card is in use, three protocols are supported to manage Ethernet
traffic: 802.1D (MAC Address Bridge), 802.1Q (Virtual Bridge), and 802.1ad
(Provider Bridge).
When a CorEvo card is in use, 802.1Q (Virtual Bridge), and 802.1ad (Provider
Bridge) are supported.
The default VLAN configuration is 802.1Q.
Note: All procedures are shown using the MSS-8 screen, however, the operation is similar
for all MSS shelves.
23.2.1 802.1D (MAC address bridge)
When the NE is configured with 802.1D, Ethernet traffic is switched according to the
destination MAC address without regards to VLAN ID.
Supported VLAN IDs are 0 and 2-4080. VLAN IDs outside the supported range of 0
and 2-4080 are dropped. VLAN IDs configured for TDM traffic flows are accepted.
23.2.2 802.1Q (virtual bridge)
When the NE is configured with 802.1Q, Ethernet traffic is switched according to
VLAN IDs.
