Port Types; Table 2: Port Type Options - GE JungleMUX SONET Technical Practice

Note: All ports on the same D-PVLAN must be set for the same QVLAN filtering
mode (either enabled or disabled), while their individual output tagging settings (if
applicable) may vary.

Port Types

Port Type selection is made at the beginning of the provisioning process for a
paddleboard port. Table 2 shows the presently available port types.

Notes Ingress: Untagged
and/or tagged frames.
(Any QVLAN IDs are
ignored.)
* GUI prevents the user from disabling ingress of both tagged and untagged frames.
Note: The Port Type parameter is not available on unit versions <3.00.
In the VistaNET software, the user will find some references to the fifth port type called "QinP-
12
Trunk" (QPT). This port type is not supported by ETHER-1000 V3 and, therefore, not explained
at this time.
