Asymmetric VLAN Settings
Shared VLAN Learning is a primary example of the requirement for Asymmetric VLANs. Under
normal circumstances, a pair of devices communicating in a VLAN environment will both send and
receive using the same VLAN; however, there are some circumstances in which it is convenient to make
use of two distinct VLANs, one used for A to transmit to B and the other used for B to transmit to A in
these cases Asymmetric VLANs are needed. An example of when this type of configuration might be
required would be if the client was on a distinct IP subnet, or if there was some confidentiality-related
need to segregate traffic between the clients.

MAC-based VLAN Settings
This window is used to create MAC-based VLAN entries on the switch. A MAC Address can be
mapped to any existing static VLAN and multiple MAC addresses can be mapped to the same VLAN.
When a static MAC-based VLAN entry is created for a user, the traffic from this user is able to be
serviced under the specified VLAN. Therefore each entry specifies a relationship of a source MAC
address with a VLAN.
Ingress Checking This field can be toggled using the space bar between Enabled and Disabled.
Enabled enables the port to compare the VID tag of an incoming packet with
the PVID number assigned to the port. If the two are different, the port filters
(drops) the packet. Disabled disables ingress filtering. Ingress Checking is
Enabled by default.
Acceptable Frame Type This field denotes the type of frame that will be accepted by the port. The user
may choose between Tagged Only, which means only VLAN tagged frames
will be accepted, and All, which mean both tagged and untagged frames will
be accepted. All is enabled by default.
