Trunk Link
Trunk Link transfers only tagged frames, since all devices connected to
the unit are VLAN aware: Only tagged data frames received on the
Ethernet or wireless link ports are forwarded.
CAUTION
It is not recommended that you configure a unit as a Trunk Link with the VLAN ID-
Management parameter set at 65535, as it does not forward any 'NO VLAN'
management frames to its other port making it impossible to manage devices connected
behind the unit that are also configured with 'NO VLAN'.
If the VLAN Forwarding option is enabled, a data frame received with a
VLAN ID that is not a member of the unit's VLAN Forwarding List is
discarded.
NOTE
If the VLAN Forwarding option is enabled, be sure to include the VLAN ID-
Management value of all units that should be managed via the wireless port of the unit,
in the Forwarding List.
Table 4-7 summarizes the functionality of the data port for a Trunk
link.
