    Virtual Local Area Networks This chapter introduces the concepts of Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) and discusses the central concepts of IEEE 802.1Q VLANs. This chapter also contains information on how to contact Enterasys Networks for additional support related to VLANs.

  • Page 12: Types Of Vlans

    Types of VLANs Figure 1-1 Example of a VLAN In this example, the Sales and Finance workstations have been placed on two separate VLANs. In a plain Ethernet environment, the entire network is a broadcast domain, and the SmartSwitches follow the IEEE 802.1D bridging specification to send data between stations. A broadcast or multicast transmission from a Sales workstation in Building One would propagate to all the switch ports on SmartSwitch A, cross the high speed link to SmartSwitch B, and then propagated out all switch ports on SmartSwitch B.

  • Page 13: 802.1Q Vlans

    1.2.1 802.1Q VLANs An 802.1Q VLAN switch determines the VLAN membership of a data frame by its Tag Header, described later in this chapter. If the frame received is not tagged, the switch classifies the frame into the VLAN that is assigned as the default VLAN of the switch.

  • Page 14: Vlan Terms

    VLAN Terms VLAN TERMS To fully understand the operation and configuration of port based VLANs, it is essential to understand the definitions of several key terms. VLAN ID A unique number (between 1 and 4094) that identifies a particular VLAN. VLAN Name A 32-character alphanumeric name associated with a VLAN ID.
  • Page 15 1Q Trunk A connection between 802.1Q switches that passes only traffic with a VLAN Tag Header inserted in the frame. By default, a port designated as a 1Q Trunk port has all VLANs in its Port VLAN List and is configured to transmit all frames as tagged frames.

    VLAN association as it passes from switch to switch or from port to port within a switch. VLAN COMPONENTS Before describing the operation of an 802.1Q VLAN, it is important to understand the basic elements that are combined to make up an 802.1Q VLAN.

  • Page 18: Configuration Process

    Before a VLAN can operate, steps must be performed to configure the switch to establish and configure a VLAN. Enterasys Networks VLAN aware SmartSwitches default to operate in the 802.1Q VLAN mode. However, further configuration is necessary to establish multiple logical networks.

  • Page 19: Vlan Switch Operation

    The operation of an 802.1Q VLAN switch is best understood from a point of view of the switch itself. To illustrate this concept, the examples that follow view the switch operations from inside the switch.

  • Page 21: Known Unicasts

    GARP Switch Operation 2.4.2.2 Known Unicasts When a VLAN switch receives a frame with a known MAC address as its destination address, the action taken by the switch to determine how the frame is transmitted depends on the VLAN, the VLAN associated FID, and if the port identified to send the frame is enabled to do so.

  • Page 23: Managing The Switch

    VLAN Configuration This chapter describes how to set up the switch for local or remote management, and the VLAN Local Management screens used to create and configure VLANs in a SmartSwitch. MANAGING THE SWITCH The switch may be managed locally via a terminal connected to the COM port, or remotely (SNMP or Telnet sessions) from a management station connected to a switch port that is a member of the same VLAN as the switch’s Host Data Port.

  • Page 24: Switch With Vlans

    Managing the Switch Figure 3-1 Switch Management with Only Default VLAN 3.1.2 Switch with VLANs If the switch is to be configured for multiple VLANs, it may be desirable to configure a management-only VLAN. This allows a management station connected to the management VLAN to manage all ports on the switch and make management secure by preventing management via ports assigned to other VLANs.
