VLAN configuration - Port-based VLAN


Packets can go among only members of the same VLAN group. Note all unselected

ports are treated as belonging to another single VLAN. If the port-based VLAN enabled,

the VLAN-tagging is ignored.


In order for an end station to send packets to different VLAN groups, it itself has to be

either capable of tagging packets it sends with VLAN tags or attached to a VLAN-aware

bridge that is capable of classifying and tagging the packet with different VLAN ID based

on not only default PVID but also other information about the packet, such as the

protocol.
