PVLAN Configuration Guidelines
Consider the following guidelines when you configure protocol-based VLANs:
 Each port can support up to 16 VLAN protocols.
 The G8000 can support up to 16 protocols simultaneously.
 Each PVLAN must have at least one port assigned before it can be activated.
 The same port within a port-based VLAN can belong to multiple PVLANs.
 An untagged port can be a member of multiple PVLANs.
 A port cannot be a member of different VLANs with the same protocol association.
Configuring PVLAN
Follow this procedure to configure a Protocol-based VLAN (PVLAN).
1. Configure VLAN tagging for ports.
2. Create a VLAN and define the protocol type(s) supported by the VLAN.
3. Configure the priority value for the protocol.
4. Add member ports for this PVLAN.
Note – If VLAN tagging is turned on and the port being added to the VLAN has a different default
VLAN (PVID), you will be asked to confirm changing the PVID to the current VLAN, as shown in
the example.
RS G8000 (config)# interface port 1, 2
RS G8000 (config-if)# tagging
RS G8000 (config)# vlan 2
RS G8000 (config-vlan)# enable
Current status: disabled
New status: enabled
RS G8000 (config-vlan)# protocol-vlan 1 frame-type ether2 0800
RS G8000 (config-vlan)# protocol-vlan 1 priority 2
RS G8000 (config-vlan)# member 1, 2
RS G8000 (config-vlan)# exit
