sVLAN rules
The following are sVLAN configuration rules.
- IP filters are not supported on sVLAN.
- To apply QoS to sVLAN, use the per VLAN QoS option.
- Since regular VLANs are not supported on an sVLAN NNI port, sVLAN switches cannot be managed in-band. An out-of-band or parallel network is recommended for managing the devices.
- When creating an sVLAN spanning tree group, the tagged BPDU address of the spanning tree group should be different from the standardized BDPU MAC address.
- The sVLAN is created with the UNI and NNI ports.
- An sVLAN cannot span multiple spanning tree groups; that is, the ports in the sVLAN must all be within one spanning tree group. Spanning tree group IDs can range in value from 1 to 64.
- sVLANs cannot have routing enabled.
- sVLAN UNI and NNI ports are applicable on a per Octapid basis. All ports on a Octapid can either be normal ports or sVLAN NNI/UNI ports.
