■
Setting the VLAN Binding attribute in the Switch Port
Configuration dialog box to Bind to Received. This causes the
port to be bound to all VLANs (as identified by the VLAN tag in
tagged frames) received on this port. Consequently, ports are
bound to those VLANs that actually have members that are
reachable through the port.
■
When an untagged frame arrives on a port that is set to Bind to
ALL, it forwards the frame to the “port VLAN”. When a tagged
802.1Q frame arrives on a port that is set to Bind to All and the
VLAN doesn’t exist on the switch the frame is dropped.
Ingress: Untagged frames are classified to the VLAN associated
with the port on which the frame is received. Tagged frames are
classified to the VLAN identified by the VLAN tag in the tag
header of the frame.
Forwarding: Only forward frames to the port for the
assigned VLAN.
Egress: All frames transmitted out of the port to be tagged
using the IEEE 802.1Q/Multi-Layer tag header format. The
tagged used will be that assigned to the port.
Binding a Port
to more than
one VLAN using
the CLI
A port can be statically configured to Bind to more than one VLAN.
This causes the port to become a member of each specified VLAN.
This feature is configured from the CLI. This feature cannot be
configured from the Web Agent.
To configure from the CLI enter the following command:
<configure># set VLAN {<VLAN-id> | name <VLAN-name>}
<mod-swport-range>[...,<mod-swport-range>]
CAUTION
This configuration should only be used under special circumstances
and with the assistance of customer support.
* Note: The Web Agent does not allow static binding of multiple
VLANs to a single port. If you use the CLI to statically
bind multiple VLANs to a single port, do not attempt to
use the Web Agent to statically bind additional VLANs to
the port or remove existing VLANs from the port.
