DESCRIPTION

Accept FrameThis field displays the type that is accepted by the frame.

Type

Specifes the type of frames allowed on a port. Choices are All, Tag Only and Untag

 

 

Only. All accepts all untagged or tagged frames on this port. This is the default

 

setting. Tag Only accepts only tagged frames on this port. All untagged frames will be

 

dropped. Untag Only accepts only untagged frames on this port. All tagged frames will

 

be dropped.

 

 

Ingress Filter

If set, the Switch discards incoming frames for VLANs that do not have this port as a

 

member.

 

 

VLAN Trunks

Enable VLAN Trunking on ports connected to other switches or routers (but not ports

 

directly connected to end users) to allow frames belonging to unknown VLAN groups to

 

pass through the Switch.

 

 

8.2.3 VLAN Port

Port-based VLANs are VLANs where the packet forwarding decision is based on the destination MAC address and its associated port. Port-based VLANs require allowed outgoing ports to be defined for each port. Therefore, if you wish to allow two subscriber ports to talk to each other, for example, between conference rooms in a hotel, you must define the egress (an egress port is an outgoing port, that is, a port through which a data packet leaves) for both ports. Port-based VLANs are specific only to the Switch on which they were created.
