	When the port received tagged frames:
	1. if an tagged frame with TPID=0x8100, it is forwarded.
	2. if the TPID of tagged frame is not 0x8100 (ex. 0x88A8),
	it will be discarded.

	When the port received tagged frames:
	1. if an tagged frame with TPID=0x88A8, it is forwarded.
	2. if the TPID of tagged frame is not 0x88A8 (ex. 0x8100), it
	will be discarded.

S-custom-port	When the port received untagged frames, an untagged
	frame obtain a tag (based on PVID) and is forwarded.
	When the port received tagged frames:
	1. if an tagged frame with TPID=0x88A8, it is forwarded.
	2. if the TPID of tagged frame is not 0x88A8 (ex. 0x8100), it
	will be discarded.

The TPID of frame transmitted by S-custom-port will be set to an self- customized value, which can be set by the user using the column of Ethertype for Custom S-ports.

•Ingress Filtering: Enable ingress filtering on a port by checking the box. If ingress filtering is enabled and the ingress port is not

a member of the classified VLAN group of the frame, the frame is discarded (Do not forward). If ingress filtering is disabled and the ingress port is not a member of the classified VLAN group of the frame, however, the frame is still forwarded. By default, ingress filtering is disabled (untick).

•Frame Type: Determines whether the port accepts all frames or only tagged/untagged frames. This parameter affects VLAN ingress processing. If the port only accepts tagged frames, untagged frames received on the port are discarded. By default, the field is set to All.

•Egress Rule: Determines what device the port connect to. If the port connect to VLAN-unaware devices, such as terminal/ workstation, Access link should be used. If the port connects to VLANaware devices, for example, switch connect to switch, Trunk link should be used. The Hybrid link is used for more flexible applications.

Hybrid: If the tag of tagged frame is as the same as PVID, the tag of the frame will be removed. The frame becomes an untagged frame and transmitted. Any other tagged frame whose tag value is different from PVID are transmitted directly.

Trunk: All tagged frames with any tag value are transmitted.

Access: The tag of any tagged frame will be removed to become an untagged frame. These untagged frames will be transmitted.

•PVID: Configures the Port VLAN identifier. The acceptable values are 1 through 4094. The default value is 1. When the port receives a untagged frame, the port will give a tag to it based on the value of PVID, and the frame becomes a tagged frame.

NOTE: The port must be a member of the same VLAN as the Port VLAN ID.
