VLANsWithin a Bridge Domain or VPLS Instance
Apacket received on a physical port is onlyaccepted for processing if the VLAN tags of
thereceived packet match the VLAN tagsassociated with one of the logical interfaces
configuredon the physical port. The VLAN tags of the receivedpacket are translated
onlyif they are different than the normalized VLAN tags. For the translationcase, the
VLANidentifier tags specify the normalized VLAN. For this case, the terms “learn VLAN”
and“normalized VLAN” can be used interchangeably.
Youcan specify the normalized VLAN using one of the followingconditions:
•TheVLAN identifier is determined explicitly by configuration
•TheVLAN identifier is specified as “none,” meaningthe VLAN tags are not translated
orgenerated
•Theinnerand outer VLAN identifier tags are both determined explicitlyby configuration
