802.1Q VLANs

Note: The system requires a reboot after the “vlan enable” command. If the system is not rebooted, the webUI will not display the VLAN configuration and the CLI will not execute VLAN commands.

VLAN Specification

VLAN modes:

Max number of VLANs:

Valid VID range:

Default PVID:

Default Egress:

Default Ingress:

IEEE 802.1Q standard compliant VLANs or Port-based VLANs on T3 Switch

IEEE 802.1Q standard compliant VLANs on WallPlates

128 VLANs can be created on the T3 Switch and assigned to any port. 16 total VLANs can be assigned to interfaces on the Wireless WallPlate.

1 – 4094

transmit untagged

Accept all packets

VLAN terminology

The T3 Switch is a VLAN switch. The WallPlate is also a VLAN switch. Therefore, be certain that packets traversing the DSL links between the T3 Switch and the WallPlate are always TAGGED.

PVID

Tagged

Untagged

In the 802.1Q standard, each port is assigned a PVID. This is the default VLAN ID assigned to untagged packets received (ingress) on that port. The PVID is sometimes called the port Native VLAN. By default, all ports are assigned VLAN 1.

T3 will optionally tag packets when transmitting (egress) on the port. Set the port as a tagged member of the VLAN by using the vlan membership egress command.

On the T3 Switch, the tag mode (whether a packet transmits with a tag or not) of a packet is determined PER VLAN, not per port. This allows the T3 to support complex VLAN configurations not possible on other switches.

On the WallPlate, the tag mode of a packet is determined PER PORT, similar to the Cisco IOS “trunk” mode.

T3 will optionally transmit (egress) packets without an 802.1Q VLAN tag. Use Untagged packets on any port that is connected to a non-VLAN aware device. For example; if a PC is connected to the WallPlate ports, packets will be untagged. This is similar to the Cisco IOS “access” mode of a switchport.
