Application Scenario of One-to-One and Many-to-One VLAN Mapping
shows a typical application scenario in which each home gateway uses different VLANs to
transmit the PC, VoD, and VoIP services.

To further sub-classify each type of traffic by customer, perform one-to-one VLAN mapping on the
wiring-closet switches, assigning a separate VLAN for each type of traffic from each customer. The
required total number of VLANs in the network can be very large. To prevent the maximum number of
VLANs from being exceeded on the distribution layer device, perform many-to-one VLAN mapping on
the campus switch to assign the same type of traffic from different customers to the same VLAN.
Because the campus switch preserves the original VLAN information, the traffic flows from different
customers are segregated, even though they appear to be in the same VLAN.
