4.6.4 Important Notes for VLAN Configuration

Some considerations should be checked in configuring VLAN settings:

1. Switch VLAN Mode selection

It is suggested to evaluate your VLAN application first and plan your VLAN configuration carefully before

applying it. Any incorrect setting might cause network problem.

2. Aggregation/Trunking configuration

Make sure the members of a link aggregation (trunk) group are configured with same VLAN configuration

and are in same VLAN group.

3. Double Tagged in Advanced VLAN Mode

For a received packet, Ingress port [Keep Tag] setting and Egress port [Insert Tag] setting are enabled at the

same time. It will cause the packet double-tagged when egress. Although, it is often applied in Q-in-Q

provider bridging application, however, such condition should be avoided in normal VLAN configuration.

See table below:
