4.2.6.4.1.3VLAN Link Type

The VLAN Link Type parameter enables defining the functionality of the VLAN aware capability of the unit.

The available options are Hybrid Link, Trunk Link, Access Link and Service Provider Link (Access Link option is available only in SUs).

The default selection is Hybrid Link.

4.2.6.4.1.3.1Access Link (SU only)

Access Link transfers frames while tagging/untagging them since all devices connected to the unit are VLAN unaware. Thus, the unit cannot transfer tagged frames.

Table 4-7 summarizes the functionality of the data port for an Access link.
