An egress port is an outgoing port, that is, a port through which a data packet leaves. There are 5 hosts (Host A, B, C, D and E) connected to a 5-port layer-2 switch which supported port-based VLAN.
Page 31
Egress port for port 5: port 1, port 4 Port-based VLAN across different switch Port-based VLAN is specific only to the switch on which it was created. Definitely, Port-based VLAN can't across different switches. As the following network diagram shown in most MTU case, for the sake of security, subscribers are isolated with each other except for the gateway.

Switch-2 VLAN 3 member port: port 4 and port 1 Host A can't talk to Host B due to the port-based VLAN in Switch-2, and Host C can't talk to Host D due to the port-based VLAN in Switch-3. But both Switch-2 and Switch-3 uplink to the none VLAN Switch-1.

ES-3100 Series Switch Support Notes Scenario In this scenario, Port Based VLAN is used to separate one physical Switch into two smaller logical Switches. Port 1~4 and 9, 10 are in one group. And Port 5~10 are in another group. Port-based VLANs are specific only to the switch on which they were created.

IGMP router. Thus this significantly reduces the multicast traffic forwarded down to the clients. Another advantage of IGMP snooping is to allow the intermediate switch to learn multicast group information without manually configuring switches. All contents copyright (c) 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
In this example, we enable the IGMP function on the GS-4024 (an IGMP router) to connect to a multimedia server. Also, we enable IGMP snooping function on the ES-3124 or other ZyXEL L2 Switch to connect to the multimedia clients. Figure 2: IGMP snooping Example...

Host sends an unicast frame to Router (source MAC address is Host's MAC, destination MAC address is Router's MAC). Both Switch A and Switch B will receive this frame and learn MAC address of Host on Port 2.
