MAC Based VLAN
MAC Based VLAN feature allows incoming untagged packets to be assigned to a VLAN and
classify traffic based on the source MAC address of the packet.
A MAC to VLAN mapping is defined by configuring an entry in the MAC to VLAN table. An
entry is specified via a source MAC address and the desired VLAN ID. The MAC to VLAN
configurations are shared across all ports of the device (i.e. there is a system wide table that
has MAC address to VLAN ID mappings).
When untagged or priority tagged packets arrive at the switch and entries exist in the MAC to
VLAN table, the source MAC address of the packet is looked up. If an entry is found the
corresponding VLAN ID is assigned to the packet. If the packet is already priority tagged it will
maintain this value, otherwise the priority will be set to zero. The assigned VLAN ID is verified
against the VLAN table, if the VLAN is valid ingress processing on the packet continues,
otherwise the packet is dropped. This implies that the user is allowed to configure a MAC
address mapping to a VLAN that has not been created on the system.
To access the MAC Based VLAN page, click Switching
VLAN Advanced MAC Based
VLAN.
The MAC Based VLAN page shows the following:
1. The MAC Address field shows the valid MAC Address which is to be bound to a VLAN
ID. This field is configurable only when a MAC Based VLAN is created. Select this entry.
2. The VLAN ID field shows the VLAN ID. A valid ID can be any number in the range of
(1–4093).
3. T
o add an entry of MAC Address to VLAN mapping, click Add.
4. Click Cancel to cancel the configuration on the screen and reset the data on the screen to
the latest value of the switch.
5. If you make any changes to this page, click Apply to send the updated configuration to the
switch. Configuration changes take place immediately.
