VLAN Support
The VLAN Support menu enables defining the parameters related to the
IEEE 802.1Q compliant VLAN aware (Virtual LAN aware) feature of the
BreezeACCESS VL units. Each VLAN includes stations that can
communicate with each other, but cannot communicate with stations
belonging to different VLANs. The VLAN feature also provides the ability
to set traffic priorities for transmission of certain frames. The
information related to the VLAN is included in the VLAN Tag Header,
which is inserted in each frame between the MAC header and the data.
VLAN implementation in BreezeACCESS VL units supports frame
routing by port information, whereby each port is connected to only one
VLAN.
The VLAN Support menu includes the following parameters:
! VLAN Link Type
! VLAN ID – Data (SU only)
! VLAN ID – Management
! VLAN Forwarding
! VLAN Relaying (AU only)
! VLAN Traffic Priority
