CLI – This example creates protocol group 1 for Ethernet frames using the IP
protocol, and group 2 for Ethernet frames using the ARP protocol.

Mapping Protocols to VLANs

Use the Protocol VLAN System Configuration menu to map a Protocol VLAN Group
to a VLAN.

Command Usage
• When creating a protocol-based VLAN, only assign interfaces using this

configuration screen. If you assign interfaces using any of the other VLAN menus
such as the VLAN Static Table (page 3-214) or VLAN Static Membership by Port
menu (page 3-216), these interfaces will admit traffic of any protocol type into the
associated VLAN.

• When a frame enters a port that has been assigned to a protocol VLAN, it is

processed in the following manner:
- If the frame is tagged, it will be processed according to the standard rules applied

to tagged frames.

- If the frame is untagged and the protocol type matches, the frame is forwarded

to the appropriate VLAN.

- If the frame is untagged but the protocol type does not match, the frame is

forwarded to the default VLAN for this interface.

Command Attributes
Protocol Group ID – Protocol Group ID assigned to the Protocol VLAN Group.

(Range: 1-2147483647)

• VLAN ID – VLAN to which matching protocol traffic is forwarded. (Range: 1-4094)

Web – Click VLAN, Protocol VLAN, System Configuration. Enter a protocol group
ID, the corresponding VLAN ID, and click Apply.
