CAUTION
Uncareful Change of TransLAN application mode can result in undefined operation. In
a specific case, switching from IEEE tagging mode (Spanning Tree Switch) to VPN
mode (double tagging/transparent), this can result in a crash of the pack.
A ’graceful shutdown’ of the configuration of the TransLAN network is then required to
ensure proper operation:
1. Remove cross-connection for all affected TransLAN NEs
2. Remove VCGs
3. Delete virtual switches
4. Change mode
5. Create virtual switches
6. Create VCGs and WAN ports
7. Provision VLANs, PVIDs, CIDs, assign ports etc.
8. Re-create cross-connection.
In the
Edit Lan Unit Information window select either:
• the
Transparent radio button, if you want to run the unit in transparent tagging
mode, also known as double tagging or VPN tagging.
Note: X5IP does not support Transparent tagging mode.
• the IEEE 802.1Q / IEEE 802.1ad radio button, if you want to run the unit in
standard VLAN tagging mode.
The usage of the tagging modes is described in “Virtual Switch operation mode ”
(p. 8-58).
Click
OK.
Result:
The LAN Unit Information window is now populated with new
information for this unit.
