72CHAPTER 4: VIRTUAL LANS (VLANS)
In Figure 10 and Figure 11:
■The trunk port on each switch carries traffic for both VLAN Marketing and VLAN Sales.
■The trunk port on each switch is tagged.
■The server connected to port 1 on Switch 1 has a NIC that supports 802.1Q tagging.
■The server connected to port 1 on Switch 1 is a member of both VLAN Marketing and VLAN Sales.
■All other stations use untagged traffic.
As data passes out of the switch, the switch determines if the destination port requires the frames to be tagged or untagged. All traffic coming from and going to the server is tagged. Traffic coming from and going to the trunk ports is tagged. The traffic that comes from and goes to the other stations on this network is not tagged.
Mixing Port-Based and Tagged VLANs
You can configure the switch using a combination of
For the purposes of VLAN classification, packets arriving on a port with an 802.1Q tag containing a VLANid of zero are treated as untagged.
The IP traffic has been divided into two IP subnets, 192.207.35.0 and 192.207.36.0. The subnets are internally routed by the switch. The subnets are assigned different VLAN names, Finance and Personnel, respectively. The remainder of the traffic belongs to the VLAN named MyCompany. All ports are members of the VLAN MyCompany.
