Page 38: Ieee 802.1Q Vlan
IEEE 802.1Q VLAN A VLAN is a group of ports that can be anywhere in the network, but communicate as though they were in the same area. VLANs can be easily organized to reflect department groups (such as R&D, Marketing), usage groups (such as e-mail), or multicast groups (multimedia applications such as video conferencing), and therefore help to simplify network management by allowing users to move devices to a new VLAN without having to change any physical... - Page 39 Asymmetric VLAN IEEE 802.1Q Asymmetric VLAN default setting is “Disabled”, you can press “Enabled” ratio button and Apply it to submit the Asymmetric VLAN function. (Figure 18) Figure 18. Enabled Asymmetric VLAN function Figure 19. Change setting warning message Note: The Settings of VLAN and Forwarding Table will be reset to default.
- Page 40 Untag VLAN Setting: The IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Configuration page provides powerful VID management functions. The original default VLAN setting has the VID as 01, named “default”, and contains all ports as “Untagged”. Figure 20. 802.1Q VLAN Setting Add VID: Click to create a new VID group, assigning ports from 01 to 16 as Untag, Tag, or Not Member.
- Page 41 VID: A unique VLAN ID. VLAN Name: A VLAN name can be setting as user wish. Port: The switch port number. Untag: Outgoing frames without VLAN tag. Tag: Outgoing frames with VLAN tag. Not Member: The port number which not to be grouped.
- Page 42 To change exist VLAN setting, press the VID to modify it. PVID settings: While receiving an untagged frame from the port, the switch will assign a tag to the frame, using the PVID of the port as its VID. Figure 23. Modify VID Figure 24.
- Page 43 Here is an example of two VLAN groups with several ports on each group and VLAN 1 (VID 01) does not have communication with VLAN 2 (VID 02). Example1: Figure 26. Untag VLAN setting example Step1: Set VLAN1 member port 9~16 to “Not Member”, then apply setting. Step2: Create VID 2 and set port 9~16 to “Untag Port”...
- Page 44 802.1Q Asymmetric VLAN settings example: Port 1~16 in VLAN 1, port1~5 in VLAN 2, port1,6~9 in VLAN 3. All VLAN1~3 have access to Internet via port 1. Note: The multi-need server must be support IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Example2: Figure 27. Asymmetric VLAN setting example Step1: Enable Asymmetric VLAN function.
- Page 45 Ethernet frame, as follows: IEEE802.1Q Tag VLAN is divided by VLAN ID (VID). On receiving a frame, the switch checks the VID in the tag header of the frame to decide which VLAN it belongs to. If the receiving frame doesn’t contain the tag header, the switch will assign a tag to the frame, using the PVID of the port as its VID.
- Page 46 Example3: Figure 30. Tag VLAN setting example Step1: Set VLAN1 member port1 to “Tag Port” and port 9~16 to “Not Member”, then apply setting. Step2: Add VID2 and set port1 to “Tag Port” and Port 9~16 to “Untag Port” member, then apply setting.
- Page 47 Another example is about setting tag VLAN with two switches. Switch 1’s VLAN 1 (2 ~ 3 ports) have access to the Switch 2’s VLAN 1 (2 ~ 3 ports). Example4: Figure 31. Tag VLAN setting example The settings of VLAN group for two devices are same.
