6.18.1 Port-based VLAN

A port-based VLAN basically consists of its members—ports, which means the VLAN is created by grouping the selected ports. This method provides convenience for users to configure a simple VLAN easily without complicated steps. Packets can go among only members of the same VLAN group. Note all unselected ports are treated as belonging to another single VLAN. If the port-based VLAN is enabled, VLAN- tagging is ignored. The port-based VLAN function allows the user to create separate VLANs to limit unnecessary packet flooding; however, for the purpose of sharing resource, a single port called a common port can belong to different VLANs; all the member devices (ports) in different VLANs have permission to access the common port while they still cannot communicate with each other in different VLANs.
