hybrid ports have these abilities:
Can be configured to be VLAN tag unaware, C-tag aware, S-tag
aware, or S-custom-tag aware
Ingress filtering can be controlled
Ingress acceptance of frames and configuration of egress tagging can
be configured independently
Port VLAN
Determines the port's VLAN ID (PVID). Allowed VLANs are in the range 1
through 4095, default being 1.
On ingress, frames get classified to the Port VLAN if the port is configured as
VLAN unaware, the frame is untagged, or VLAN awareness is enabled on
the port, but the frame is priority tagged (VLAN ID = 0).
On egress, frames classified to the Port VLAN do not get tagged if Egress
Tagging configuration is set to untag Port VLAN.
The Port VLAN is called an "Access VLAN" for ports in Access mode and Native
VLAN for ports in Trunk or Hybrid mode.
Port Type
Ports in hybrid mode allow for changing the port type, that is, whether a frame's
VLAN tag is used to classify the frame on ingress to a particular VLAN, and if so,
which TPID it reacts on. Likewise, on egress, the Port Type determines the TPID
of the tag, if a tag is required.
Unaware:
On ingress, all frames, whether carrying a VLAN tag or not, get classified
to the Port VLAN, and possible tags are not removed on egress.
C-Port:
On ingress, frames with a VLAN tag with TPID = 0x8100 get classified to
the VLAN ID embedded in the tag. If a frame is untagged or priority
tagged, the frame gets classified to the Port VLAN. If frames must be
tagged on egress, they will be tagged with a C-tag.
S-Port:
On ingress, frames with a VLAN tag with TPID = 0x8100 or 0x88A8 get
classified to the VLAN ID embedded in the tag. If a frame is untagged or
priority tagged, the frame gets classified to the Port VLAN. If frames must
be tagged on egress, they will be tagged with an S-tag.
S-Custom-Port:
On ingress, frames with a VLAN tag with a TPID = 0x8100 or equal to the
Ethertype configured for Custom-S ports get classified to the VLAN ID
embedded in the tag. If a frame is untagged or priority tagged, the frame
gets classified to the Port VLAN. If frames must be tagged on egress, they
will be tagged with the custom S-tag.
Ingress Filtering
Hybrid ports allow for changing ingress filtering. Access and Trunk ports always
have ingress filtering enabled.
