Chapter 9 VLAN Please refer to the following table for common IEEE 802.1Q VLAN terminology. Table 28 IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Terminology VLAN PARAMETER TERM DESCRIPTION VLAN Type Permanent VLAN This is a static VLAN created manually. VLAN Administrative Control VLAN Tag Control VLAN Port Dynamic VLAN Registration Fixed Registration Forbidden Normal Registration Tagged Untagged Port VID Acceptable Frame Type Ingress filtering This is a VLAN configured by a GVRP registration/deregistration process. Fixed registration ports are permanent VLAN members. Ports with registration forbidden are forbidden to join the specified VLAN. Ports dynamically join a VLAN using GVRP. Ports belonging to the specified VLAN tag all outgoing frames transmitted. Ports belonging to the specified VLAN don't tag all outgoing frames transmitted. This is the VLAN ID assigned to untagged frames that this port received. You may choose to accept both tagged and untagged incoming frames, just tagged incoming frames or just untagged incoming frames on a port. If set, the Switch discards incoming frames for VLANs that do not have this port as a member 9.1.2.2 Port VLAN Trunking Enable VLAN Trunking on a port to allow frames belonging to unknown VLAN groups to pass through that port. This is useful if you want to set up VLAN groups on end devices without having to configure the same VLAN groups on intermediary devices. Refer to the following figure. Suppose you want to create VLAN groups 1 and 2 (V1 and V2) on devices A and B. Without VLAN Trunking, you must configure VLAN groups 1 and 2 on all intermediary switches C, D and E; otherwise they will drop frames with unknown VLAN group tags. However, with VLAN Trunking enabled on a port(s) in each intermediary switch you only need to create VLAN groups in the end devices (A and B). C, D and E automatically allow frames with VLAN group tags 1 and 2 (VLAN groups that are unknown to those switches) to pass through their VLAN trunking port(s).

Please refer to the following table for common IEEE 802.1Q VLAN terminology.
9.1.2.2
Port VLAN Trunking
Enable
VLAN Trunking
on a port to allow frames belonging to unknown VLAN groups to pass
through that port. This is useful if you want to set up VLAN groups on end devices without having to
configure the same VLAN groups on intermediary devices.
Refer to the following figure. Suppose you want to create VLAN groups 1 and 2 (V1 and V2) on
devices A and B. Without
VLAN Trunking
, you must configure VLAN groups 1 and 2 on all
intermediary switches C, D and E; otherwise they will drop frames with unknown VLAN group tags.
However, with
VLAN Trunking
enabled on a port(s) in each intermediary switch you only need to
create VLAN groups in the end devices (A and B). C, D and E automatically allow frames with VLAN
group tags 1 and 2 (VLAN groups that are unknown to those switches) to pass through their VLAN
trunking port(s).

Permanent VLAN
This is a static VLAN created manually.
Dynamic VLAN
This is a VLAN configured by a GVRP registration/deregistration
process.
VLAN Administrative
Control
Registration Fixed
Fixed registration ports are permanent VLAN members.
Registration
Forbidden
Ports with registration forbidden are forbidden to join the
specified VLAN.
Normal Registration
Ports dynamically join a VLAN using GVRP.
VLAN Tag Control
Tagged
Ports belonging to the specified VLAN tag all outgoing frames
transmitted.
Untagged
Ports belonging to the specified VLAN don't tag all outgoing
frames transmitted.
VLAN Port
Port VID
This is the VLAN ID assigned to untagged frames that this port
received.
Acceptable Frame
Type
You may choose to accept both tagged and untagged incoming
frames, just tagged incoming frames or just untagged incoming
frames on a port.
Ingress filtering
If set, the Switch discards incoming frames for VLANs that do not
have this port as a member
