VLAN Management Tab - Port Settings

The VLAN Port Settings screen provides parameters for managing ports that are part of a VLAN. The port default
VLAN ID (PVID) is configured on the VLAN Port Settings screen. All untagged packets arriving to the device are
tagged by the ports PVID.

Port. The port number included in the VLAN.

Mode. Indicates the port mode. Possible values are:

General. The port belongs to VLANs, and each VLAN is user-defined as tagged or untagged (full 802.1Q
mode).

Access. The port belongs to a single untagged VLAN. When a port is in Access mode, the packet types
which are accepted on the port (packet type) cannot be designated. It is also not possible to enable/
disable ingress filtering on an access port.

Trunk. The port belongs to VLANs in which all ports are tagged (except for an optional single native VLAN).

Acceptable Frame Type. Packet type accepted on the port. Possible values are:

Admit Tag Only. Indicates that only tagged packets are accepted on the port.

Admit All. Indicates that both tagged and untagged packets are accepted on the port.

PVID. Assigns a VLAN ID to untagged packets. The possible values are 2 to 4094. VLAN 4095 is defined as per
standard and industry practice as the discard VLAN. Packets classified to the Discard VLAN are dropped.

Ingress Filtering. Enables or disables Ingress filtering on the port. Ingress filtering discards packets which do
not include an ingress port.

LAG. Indicates the LAG to which the VLAN is defined.
