Field | Description |
|
|
Binding Style | The binding style configured on the port. The binding style defines |
| which packets can be forwarded by the port. The following binding |
| styles are available: |
| ● Bind to All - The port is bound to all VLANs known to the |
| device. This is also known as persistent binding. If a packet is on |
| a VLAN not known to the device, the packet is discarded. |
| ● Bind to Configured - The port is bound to all VLANs known to |
| the device and to the VLANs with which packets reaching the |
| ports are tagged. This is also known as dynamic binding. If a |
| packet is on a VLAN not known to the device, the packet is |
| discarded. |
| ● Static - The port is bound to the VLANs checked in the Static |
| Binding VLANs list. Packets on all other VLANs are discarded. |
|
|
Static Binding | A list of VLANs known on the network and VLANs configured on the |
VLANs | device. Each VLAN has an accompanying checkbox. Possible values |
| are: |
| ● Checked - The VLAN is bound to the port being configured. |
| ● Unchecked - The VLAN is not bound to the port being |
| configured. |
| Note: |
| The settings are only used when the port is configured |
| with the Static Binding Style. |
