Figure 5-55 Access Mode
Tabulated below is the table which explains the method to configure the device in Access Mode:
Parameter Description
Interface Displays the name of the Ethernet interface.
VLAN Mode Select the VLAN mode as Access and click OK.
Access VLAN Id Enter the Access VLAN Id in the Access VLAN Id box. The untagged data frames received
at the Ethernet interface are tagged with this configured VLAN Id and then forwarded to
the WORP interface. By default, the Access VLAN Id is set to -1 which indicates no tag is
added to the data frame. To set Access VLAN tag to the data frame, enter a value ranging
from 1 to 4094.
: When Double VLAN is enabled on the device, the Access VLAN ID should not be
set to -1.
Access VLAN Priority This parameter is used to set IEEE 802.1p priority for the data frames. By default, the
priority is set to 0. To set the Access VLAN priority, enter a value ranging from 0 to 7.
Click OK and then COMMIT.
5.8.2.3 Trunk Mode
Trunk Mode can be configured in a BSU, SU, End Point A and End Point B. This mode is used to connect VLAN aware
networks with VLAN aware networks. In the Trunk mode, the Ethernet interface of the device forwards only those tagged
frames whose VLAN Id matches with a VLAN Id present in the trunk table.
If the device receives untagged frames and the Allow Untagged Frames functionality is disabled, then the untagged packets
are dropped.
If the Allow Untagged Frames functionality is enabled, then functionality varies based on the device:
• In case of a BSU, the untagged packets are forwarded to the destination.
• In case of a SU, End Point A and End Point B, the device behaves as in Access Mode for untagged traffic. The
untagged frames are tagged with the configured Port VLAN ID and forwarded to the destination.
