Support Protocol-based VLAN
In order for an end station to send packets to different VLAN, it has to be either capable of tagging packets it sends with
VLAN tags or attached to a VLAN-aware bridge that is capable of classifying and tagging the packet with different VLAN ID
based on not only default PVID but also other information about the packet, such as the protocol.
NVF-800S will support protocol-based VLAN classification by means of both built-in knowledge of layer 2 packet formats
used by selected popular protocols such as Novell IPX and AppleTalk’s EtherTalk and some degree of programmable
protocol matching capability. (
