Modify a Static VLAN Table Example
The following is an example of how to modify a static VLAN table.

Forwarding Process Example
Tagged Frames
Step 1.
First the switch checks the VLAN ID (VID) of tagged frames or assigns temporary VIDs to untagged
frames (see Section 27.4.7).
Step 2.
The switch then checks the VID in a frame’s tag against the SVLAN table.
Step 3.
The switch notes what the SVLAN table says (that is, the SVLAN tells the switch whether or not to
forward a frame and if the forwarded frames should have tags).
Step 4.
Then the switch applies the port filter to finish the forwarding decision. This means that frames may be
dropped even if the SVLAN says to forward them. Frames might also be dropped if they are sent to a
CPE (customer premises equipment) DSL device that does not accept tagged frames.
Untagged Frames
Step 1.
An untagged frame comes in from the LAN.
