„Independent VLAN“ subdivides the for-
warding database
(see on page 74 „Filters for
MAC addresses“) virtually into one indepen-
dent forwarding database per VLAN. The de-
vice cannot assign data packets with a
destination address in another VLAN, and so
floods it to all ports of the VLAN.
Application area: Setting up identical net-
works that use the same MAC addresses.
„Shared VLAN“ uses the same forwarding
database for all VLANs
(see on page 74 „Fil-
ters for MAC addresses“) . The device cannot
assign data packets with a destination ad-
dress in another VLAN, and so only forwards
them to the destination port if the receiving
port is also a member of the VLAN group of
the destination port.
Application area: In the case of overlapping
groups, the device can distribute directly
across VLANs, as long as the ports involved
belong to a VLAN that can be reached.
Changes to the mode are only taken over af-
ter a warm start
(see on page 37 „Restart“) is
performed on the device, and the changes
are then displayed in the line below under
“Status”.
