124 Asanté IntraCore 36000 Series
Usage Guidelines
When creating a protocol-based VLAN, only assign interfaces using this configuration screen. If you assign
interfaces using any of the other VLAN commands such as VLAN Static Table (section 10.1.6 Adding
Static Members to VLANs (VLAN Index).) or VLAN Static Membership (in section 10.1.7 Adding Static
Members to VLANs (Port Index), these interfaces will admit traffic of any protocol type into the associated
VLAN.
When a frame enters a port that has been assigned to a protocol VLAN, it is processed in the following
manner:
• If the frame is tagged, it will be processed according to the standard rules applied to tagged frames.
• If the frame is untagged and the protocol type matches, the frame is forwarded to the appropriate VLAN.
• If the frame is untagged but the protocol type does not match, the frame is forwarded to the default
VLAN for this interface.
