Ingress Rule:
Each packet received by a VLAN-aware bridge will be classified to a VLAN.
The classification rule is described as follows.
1. If the VID of the packet is null VID (VID=0), or this packet is an untagged packet:
a. If there are still some other ways (e.g. protocol, MAC address, application,
IP-subnet, etc.) to classify the incoming packets beside port-based
classification implemented and these approaches can offer a non-zero
VID, then use the value of VID offered by the other classifications for this
VLAN’s classification.
b. If there is only port-based classification implemented or other classification
approaches cannot offer a non-zero VID for the incoming packets, then
assign the PVID to the incoming packets as VID for the classification of
the VLAN group.
2. If the VID is not a null VID (VID0), then use the value to classify the VLAN group.
Egress Rule:
An egress list is used to make the tagging and forwarding decision on an
outgoing port. It specifies the VLANs whose packets can be transmitted out and
specifies if the packet should be tagged or not. It can be configured for the port’s
VLAN membership, and tagged or untagged for a transmitted packet. When a
packet is transmitted out, the VLAN bridge checks the port’s egress list. If the VLAN
of the packet is on the egress list of the port on which the packet is transmitted out,
the packet will be transmitted with the priority accordingly. If enabled, an egress port
will transmit out a tagged packet if the port is connected to an 802.1Q-compliant
device. If an egress port is connected to a non-802.1Q device or an end station, the
VLAN bridge must transmit out an untagged packet, i.e. the tag has been stripped
off in an egress port. Egress rule can be set on a per port basis.
Independent VLAN Learning (IVL):
It specifies the mode used to learn MAC addresses. For a specified VLAN, it
will use an independent filtering database (FID) to learn or look up the membership
information of the VLAN and decide where to go.
Shared VLAN Learning (SVL):
It specifies the mode used to learn MAC addresses. In this mode, some
VLANs or all VLANs use the same filtering database, storing the membership
information of the VLAN to learn or look up the membership information of the
VLAN. In the 065-7931 switch, you can choose a VID for sharing the filtering
database in the Shared VID field if you wish to use the existing filtering database.
For a specified VLAN, when a MAC address is learned by a switch, the VLAN will
use this information to make the forwarding decision.
Filtering Database:
Referred to as FID. It can provide the information regarding where the packet
will be sent. The filtering database will supply the outgoing port according to the
request from a forwarding process with VID and DA. When a packet is received, if it
has a non-zero VID, then the FID will offer the associated outgoing ports information
to the packet.
In SVL, VLANs use the same Filtering Database. In IVL, VLANs use different
FIDs. Any VID can be assigned to the same FID by the administrator.
