VLAN Support

VLANs are collections of switching ports that comprise a single

 

broadcast domain. Packets are classified as belonging to a VLAN

 

based on either the VLAN tag or based on a combination of the

 

ingress port and packet contents. Packets sharing common

 

attributes can be grouped in the same VLAN.

VLAN-aware MAC-based Switching

The device always performs VLAN-aware bridging. Classic bridg-

ing(IEEE802.1D) is not performed, where frames are forwarded

 

 

based only on their destination MAC address. However, a similar

 

functionality may be configured for untagged frames. Frames

 

addressed to a destination MAC address that is not associated

 

with any port are flooded to all ports of the relevant VLAN.

Web Based Management

With web based management, the system can be managed from

any web browser. The system contains an Embedded Web

 

 

Server (EWS), which serves HTML pages, through which the sys-

 

tem can be monitored and configured. The system internally con-

 

verts web-based input into configuration commands, MIB variable

 

settings and other management-related settings.
