6.3 Protocol VLAN

Protocol VLAN is another way to classify VLANs based on network protocol. Protocol VLANs can
be sorted by IP, IPX, DECnet, AppleTalk, Banyan and so on. Through the Protocol VLANs, the
broadcast domain can span over multiple switches and the Host can change its physical position
in the network with its VLAN member role always effective. By creating Protocol VLANs, the
network administrator can manage the network clients based on their actual applications and
services effectively.
Protocol VLAN, another way to classify VLANs based on network protocol, can bind ToS provided
in the network to VLAN to realize the specific service. Through protocol VLAN, the switch can
analyze the received un-VLAN-tagged packets on the port and match the packets with the
user-defined protocol template according to different encapsulation formats and the values of the
special fields. If a packet is matched, the switch will add a corresponding VLAN tag to it
automatically and thus the data of specific protocol can be automatically assigned to the
corresponding VLAN for transmission. The network administrator can manage network clients
based on their specific applications and services through protocol VLAN.
