VLAN MUX Setting

A Virtual LAN, commonly known as a VLAN, is a group of hosts with the common set of requirements
that communicate as if they were attached to the same broadcast domain, regardless of the physical
location. A VLAN has the same attributes as a physical LAN, but it allows for end stations to be
grouped together even if they are not located on the same network switch.
The most commonly used Virtual LAN is defined by 802.1Q tagging protocol, which expended the
original Ethernet frame header to include VLAN ID (tag) and priority bits.With the support of network
equipments, multiple virtual networks can coexist over the same physical network.
VLAN MUX is a VLAN operation where a VLAN and the user group are one-to-one mapped, a
VLAN can be an unique identification for the user group.
Example: IPTV service achieved with VLAN MUX
According to your ISP, while the devices in your ISP need VLAN ID information, then VLAN MUX is
required to be enabled.
Suppose you want router port 1 for IPTV application, port 2-4 for common application. You want to
separate IPTV traffic from common application traffic, you can create two VLANs, thus, VLAN200,
for IPTV application, VLAN 100 for common use.
Step 1: Select Configuration > WAN > WAN Profile, in Profile Port field, select EWAN. Set PPPoE
connection, enter the needed information. Enable VLAN MUX, set 802.1Q VLAN ID 100.
