12.4 The Port-Based VLAN Screen

Port-based VLANs are VLANs where the frame 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 frame leaves) for both ports.

Port-based VLANs are specific only to the MES-2110 on which they were created.
