Port-based:

Port-based VLAN is defined by port. Any packet coming in or outgoing from any one port of a port-based VLAN will be accepted. No filtering criterion applies in port-based VLAN. The only criterion is the physical port you connect to. For example, for a port-based VLAN named PVLAN-1 contains port members Port 1&2&3&4. If you are on the port 1, you can communicate with port 2&3&4. If you are on the port 5, then you cannot talk to them. Each port-based VLAN you built up must be assigned a group name. This switch can support up to maximal 26 port-based VLAN groups.

Metro Mode:

The Metro Mode is a quick configuration VLAN environment method on Port-based VLAN. It will create 22 or 23 Port-based VLAN groups.

Symmetric Vlan:

This is a Ingress Rule (Rule 1, The Ingress Filtering Rule 1 is “forward only packets with VID matching this port’s configured VID”.). For example, if port 1 receives a tagged packet with VID=100 (VLAN name=VLAN100), and if Symmetric-Vlan function is enabled, the switch will check if port 1 is a member of VLAN100. If yes, the received packet is forwarded; otherwise, the received packet is dropped.

Note: If Symmetric is enabled and port 1, for example, receives an untagged packet, the switch will apply the PVID of port 1 to tag this packet, the packet then will be forwarded. But if the PVID of port 1 is not 100, the packet will be dropped.

SVL:

While SVL is enable, all VLANs use the same filtering database storing the membership information of the VLAN to learn or look up the membership information of the VLAN. While SVL is disable, it means learning mode is IVL. In this mode, different VLAN uses different filtering database storing the membership information of the VLAN to learn or look up the information of a VLAN member.

Double Tag:

Double-tag mode belongs to the tag-based mode, however, it would treat all frames as the untagged ones, which means that tag with PVID will be added into all packets. Then, these packets will be forwarded as Tag- based VLAN. So, the incoming packets with tag will become the double- tag ones.

Up-link Port:

This function is enabled only when metro mode is chosen in VLAN mode.

25:

Except Port 25, each port of the switch cannot transmit packets with each other. Each port groups a VLAN with Port 25, thus, total 23 groups consisting of 2 members are formed.
