VLAN
The RocketLinx ES7506 supports Port-Based VLAN functionality for the purpose of limiting a broadcast
domain to specific members of a group by physically grouping the members together.
The RocketLinx ES7506 determines the membership of a data frame by examining the configuration of the
port that received the transmission, or by reading a portion of the data frame’s tag header. A four-byte field in
the header is used to identify the VLAN. This VLAN identification indicates which VLAN the frame belongs
to. If the frame has no tag header, the switch checks the VLAN setting of the port that received the frame. If
the switch has been configured for port based VLAN support, it assigns the port’s VLAN identification to the
new frame.
The following commands are included in this section
Port Based VLAN
This subsection discusses port base VLAN.

Port-Based VLAN
PVID
Enter the Port VLAN ID (PVID). The PVID allows the switches to identify which
port belongs to which VLAN. To keep things simple, it is recommended that PVID
is equivalent to VLAN IDs. The values of PVIDs are from 1 to 4094 but, 0 and
4095 are reserved. You can not enter these 2 PVIDs. 1 is the default value. 2 to
4094 are valid and available in this column.
