The following example configures ports 1 to 5 as fixed and untagged ports in VLAN 2000.

Forwarding Process Example
Tagged Frames
1.
First the switch checks the VLAN ID (VID) of tagged frames or assigns temporary VIDs to untagged
frames.
2.
The switch then checks the VID in a frame’s tag against the SVLAN table.
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).
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
1.
An untagged frame comes in from the LAN.
2.
The switch checks the PVID table and assigns a temporary VID of 1.
3.
The switch ignores the port from which the frame came, because the switch does not send a frame to the
port from which it came. The switch also does not forward frames to “forbidden” ports.
4.
If after looking at the SVLAN, the switch does not have any ports to which it will send the frame, it won’t
check the port filter.
