802.1Q
Problem Reports
PR 37415
The OS7000 frame parser does not recognize Token Ring or FDDI SNAP frames with 802.1Q encapsula-
tion. If the parser encounters these frames, they are misclassified as flood frames.
Workaround: There is no known workaround at this time.
PR 72541
OmniCore does not support hybrid VLANs where tagged and untagged frames are present. A port must be
tagged to add it to multiple VLANs. From that point forward, it will drop all untagged frames. This is only
a problem when connected to an OS7000 series switch that has the default VLAN on the switch in use,
and that port is connected to a tagged port on an OmniCore. The OS7000 series switch is not be able to
talk to the OmniCore on the default VLAN on that port.
Workaround: Make the default VLAN on a port connected to an OmniCore, an unused VLAN. This will
cause all the frames coming out of the OS7000 series switch to be tagged, and it will also accept all the
tagged frames coming from the OmniCore.
