VLAN tab fields


Field Description
SvlanPortType
Sets the stacked VLAN (SVLAN) port type:
  • normal (default)
  • uni (User-to-Network Interface)
  • You must configure ports to which you want to provide VLAN transparency as UNI ports. UNI ports can only belong to one SVLAN. When you designate a port as a UNI port, the DiscardTaggedFrames parameter is automatically configured (Edit > Port > VLAN). This prevents traffic from leaking to other VLANs.
  • nni (Network-to-Network Interface)
  • NNI ports interconnect the switches in the core network, drop untagged frames on ingress, and insert the SVLAN tag at the egress. When you configure an NNI port, the DiscardUnTaggedFrames parameter is automatically configured (Edit > Port > VLAN).
Before configuring a port as uni or nni, you must change the switch level to 1 or above (Edit > VLAN > SVLAN > Level).
PerformTagging
Enable or disable the port on the current VLAN to perform tagging on the incoming and outgoing traffic.
VlanNames
Identifies which VLANs this port is assigned. Each VLAN ID is stored as a two octet value. The first octet in the pair holds bits 15-8 of the VLAN ID, the second octet holds bits 7-0 of the VLAN ID.
DiscardTaggedFrames
Determines how to process tagged frames received on this access port. When the flag is set, these frames are discarded by the forwarding process. When the flag is reset, these frames are processed normally.
DiscardUntaggedFrames
Determines how to process untagged frames received on this tagged port. When the flag is set, these frames are discarded by the forwarding process. When the flag is reset, these frames are assigned to the VLAN specified by the DefaultVlanId.
DefaultVlanId
VLAN ID assigned to untagged frames.
LoopDetect
Enables loop detection.
