For the full d uplex pause frame me chanism to work, the device connect ed to the switch por t must also support IEEE 80 2.
9032785 Virtual LANs (VLAN s) 89 APPENDIX D. VIRTUAL LANS (VLANS) VLANs and Frame Ta gging The EL S100-24TXM supports IEEE 802 .1Q-com pliant vir tual LA Ns (VLANs). This cap ability provid es a highly efficient ar chit ecture for establish ing VLANs withi n a network and f or con trollin g bro adcast/ multi cast traffic between wo rkgroups.
90 Virt ual LANs (VLANs) ELS100-24TXM If the ELS100 -24TXM is so conf igured, and, if the frame does not alr eady contain a tag, a VLAN iden tifier is place d in a tag which is appen ded to frames as th ey are received by the sw itch. Within the swi tch and between switches com pliant wit h IEEE 802.
9032785 Virtual LANs (VLAN s) 91 VLAN Egress Ports The VLAN Egress Por ts parameter is used to assign ports to a VLAN for carrying VLAN tag ged frames across a netwo rk. The assignment of egres s port s does not aff ect the assign ment of VLA N ID s to frames enteri ng the sw itch.
92 Virt ual LANs (VLANs) ELS100-24TXM VLAN Hybrid Ports A VLAN Hybri d por t is used to conn ect one or m ore VLAN-aw are or VLAN-una ware devices to the switch. B oth tagged and untagged fr ames can be receive d and tr an smitted on Hybrid ports. Eg ress port s shou ld typically be config ured as Hybrid port s.
9032785 Virtual LANs (VLAN s) 93 In Example 3 in Fig ure D-3B, an untagge d frame arrives at the lef t port (1). The swit ch ta gs the frame wit h th e PVID for VLAN X (2) . Since the destinat ion MAC address has alre ady been learned as a tagged station on VLAN X on the out going por t, the frame is sent out with a V LAN X tag .
94 Virt ual LANs (VLANs) ELS100-24TXM VLAN Application Exa mple A networ k administrat or can use V LANs to defi ne user groups regardle ss of the physical LA N segm en t to whic h they are connected. Th e use of Hybrid and Access links can further refine traffic flow in a multi-switch environme nt.
