Configure a MAC-based VLAN
A MAC-based VLAN allows incoming untagged packets to be assigned to a VLAN and
classify traffic based on the source MAC address of the packet.
You define a MAC-to-VLAN mapping by configuring an entry in the MAC-to-VLAN table.
An entry is defined by its source MAC address and a VLAN ID. MAC-to-VLAN
configurations are shared across all interfaces (that is, there is a system-wide table with
MAC-address-to-VLAN-ID mappings).
When untagged or priority-tagged packets arrive at the switch and entries exist in the
MAC-to-VLAN table, the switch attempts to find the source MAC address of the packet:
If the switch finds an entry, the corresponding VLAN ID is assigned to the packet. If the
packet is already priority-tagged, it maintains this value; otherwise, the priority is set to
zero. The assigned VLAN ID is verified against the VLAN table: If the VLAN is valid,
ingress processing on the packet continues; otherwise the packet is dropped. This
implies that you can manually configure a MAC-address-to-VLAN-ID mapping.
Add a MAC-based VLAN configuration To add a MAC-based VLAN
configuration:
1. Launch a web browser.
2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
The login page displays.
3. Click the Main UI Login button.
The main UI login page displays in a new tab.
4. Enter admin as the user name, enter your local device password, and click the Login
button.
The first time that you log in, no password is required. However, you then must
specify a local device password to use each subsequent time that you log in.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select Switching > VLAN > Advanced > MAC Based VLAN.
The MAC Based VLAN page displays.
6. In the MAC Address field, type a MAC address that must be bound to a VLAN ID.
