6.2 MAC VLAN
MAC VLAN technology is used to classify and assign VLANs according to the MAC
Address of Client Devices. Each MAC Address corresponds to a single VLAN ID. Devices
in a MAC VLAN can be connected to another member Port in the MAC VLAN and
forward traffi c without changing the confi guration of VLAN members.
Packets in a MAC VLAN are processed in the following manner:
„
When receiving an untagged packet the Switch will attempt to match the packet with
the current MAC VLAN. If the packet is matched the Switch will add the correspond-
ing MAC VLAN tag. If no MAC VLAN is matched to the packet the Switch will add a
tag to the packet corresponding to the PVID of the receiving Port.
„
When receiving tagged packets the Switch will process them based on the VLAN
settings corresponding to the tag in the packet received. If the receiving Port is a
member of the VLAN to which the tagged packet belongs the packet will be for-
warded normally, if it is not the packet will be discarded.
„
If the MAC address of a Client Device is assigned to a MAC VLAN, please set the con-
nected Port of Switch as a member of the corresponding VLAN to ensure all packets
are forwarded normally.
On the following page, you can create a MAC VLAN and view the current MAC VLANs
in the table.
