Figure 9-94: Stacked VLAN Mode
The ‘Service Tag Protocol ID’ defines the VLAN TPID of the outer tag. Accord-
ing to the IEEE 802.1ad standard the value shall be 0x88a8. But in order to al-
low backwards compatibility with older VLAN stacking equipments the value can
be defined to any other value.
The ‘Management VID’ defines the VLAN ID of the outer VLAN which is re-
served for managing the device.
The ‘Default S-VLAN ID’ defines the default VLAN ID of the outer tag (Service
Provider tag) which will be added to untagged or VLAN tagged frames.
The ‘Default S-VLAN Priority’ defines the default VLAN Priority of the outer tag
(Service Provider tag) which will be added to untagged or VLAN tagged frames.
Note: Before to add a Rule based S-VLAN you need to validate the new mode by
clicking the ‘Apply’ or the ‘Ok’ button. But before to do this you need to make sure that
you have already created a Management VLAN and have also assigned it another
Ethernet IP address. Refer to section 9.4.11to learn how to create a VLAN interface.
After clicking the ‘Apply’ or ‘Ok’ button you will loose access to the management. Re-
configure your network to use the management VLAN and connect to the manage-
ment using the new management IP address..
To define a VLAN stacking rule, click the 'New Entry' link, the ‗Rule Settings‘
screen appears:
