6.10.7 Protocol-Based VLAN
This section describes protocol-based VLAN. The switch supports Ethernet LLC protocol and sub-network access protocol (SNAP).
LLC: The Logical Link Control (LLC) data communications protocol layer is the upper sub-layer of the Data Link layer (which is itself Layer 2, just above the Physical layer) in the seven-layer OSI reference model. It provides multiplexing mechanisms that make it possible for several network protocols (IP, IPX, DECnet, and AppleTalk®) to coexist within a multipoint network and to be transported over the same network media, and can also provide flow control and automatic repeat request (ARQ) error management mechanisms.
SNAP: The Sub-network Access Protocol (SNAP) is a mechanism for multiplexing, on networks using IEEE 802.2 LLC, more protocols than can be distinguished by the 8-bit 802.2 Service Access Point (SAP) fields. SNAP supports identifying protocols by Ethernet-type field values; it also supports vendor-private protocol identifier spaces. It is used with IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.4, IEEE 802.5, IEEE 802.11 and other IEEE 802 physical network layers, as well as with non-IEEE 802 physical network layers such as FDDI that use 802.2 LLC.
Protocol to Group
This page allows you to add new protocols to group name (unique for each group) mapping entries as well as enable you to see and delete already mapped entries for the selected switch.
Web Interface
To configure protocol-based VLAN configuration in the Web interface:
1.Click “Protocol-based VLAN configuration” and add new entry.
2.Specify the “Ethernet LLC SNAP Protocol” and “Group Name.”
3.Click “Save.”
