VLAN Management

Example of System With Tagging

The two-switch system shown in Figure 9-3 demonstrates the use of tagging to create some VLAN groups that can communicate with one another, and other groups that cannot communicate. By studying the figure, Table 9-4, and the descriptions that follow, you can learn the effects of tagging.

= Tagged Port

 

= Normal Port

= Ethernet Segment

= Logical representation of a VLAN group; not a physical connection

E1, E2, E3, etc. are Ethernet Segments to which the corresponding port is connected
