Chapter 1. Overview Of Base Station
1.2.2.5 VLAN Application Example
An example (Figure 1-5 )using the Point-to-Multipoint PacketMax 5000 Product with
two SSs (Subscriber Station) and a Cisco 2950 Series VLAN switch is described in
this section.
The Base Station Backhaul Fast Ethernet Port is Trunked, via the MSC (Main
System Controller), to the Cisco 2950 Series VLAN Switch.
Two ports on Cisco VLAN Switch are configured in Access mode to tag all
incoming packets. The first port is configured with VLAN ID 101 and the sec
-
ond VLAN ID 102; these ports are used to connect non VLAN enable devices.
Two PacketMax SSs are configured in VLAN mode to tag all incoming pack-
ets. One SS is configured to tag all incoming packets with ID 101 and the
other with ID 102.
The PacketMax products (MSC and SS) are configured to be managed using
VLAN ID 100. Hence, another Port on the VLAN switch is configured to tag
all packets coming from the EMS Server with VLAN ID 100 to the Base Sta
-
tion Management interface on the MSC.

1.2.2.6 Looping Prevention
The communication between SS and PM 5000 and the communication between SS
and EMS server occurs over the management VLAN. The management traffic des
-
tined to EMS server from SS is sent out only on management port of PM5000 and it
will not be sent out of backhaul port.
Also, if backhaul port receives any management traffic, it will drop it. Hence, if you
try to ping PM5000 (which is in VLAN Mode) using management VLAN ID through
