Figure 6-32. Configure 802.1Q Port Settings screen
The following fields can be set:
| Parameter | Description |
| |
Module: |
| This allows you to toggle between the Base Unit | ||
|
|
| and | |
Configure | Port | This allows the entry of a contiguous range of port | ||
from [ ] to [ | ] | numbers to be configured. | ||
PVID#[ ] |
| Port VLAN Identifier – is a classification | ||
|
|
| mechanism that associates a port with a specific | |
|
|
| VLAN and is used to make forwarding decisions | |
|
|
| for untagged packets received by the port. For | |
|
|
| example, if port #2 is assigned a PVID of 3, then | |
|
|
| all untagged packets received on port #2 will be | |
|
|
| assigned to VLAN 3. This number is generally the | |
|
|
| same as the VID# number assigned to the port in | |
|
|
| the Edit 802.1Q VLANs menu above. | |
Ingress |
| This field can be toggled using the space bar | ||
Filter:<Off> |
| between On and Off. On enables the port to | ||
|
|
| compare the VID tag of an incoming packet with | |
|
|
| the PVID number assigned to the port. If the two | |
|
|
| are different, the port filters (drops) the packet. | |
|
|
| Off disables Ingress filtering. | |
GVRP:<Off> |
| Group VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) – this | ||
|
|
| enables the port to dynamically become a member | |
|
|
| of a VLAN. | |
GMRP:<Off> |
| Group Multicast Registration Protocol (GMRP) − | ||
|
|
| this enables the port to dynamically become a | |
|
|
| member of a multicast group. | |
|
|
|
|
|
Each port can be configured to use an Ingress Filter, to enable or disable GVRP. The ports to be configured in a given session can be identified by either entering a range of port numbers or by entering the PVID#.
