The 802.1v Pro tocol VLAN folder co ntains t wo wi ndows: 802.1v Protocol Gr oup Se ttings and 802.1v Pr otocol VL AN
Settings.
802.1v Protocol Group Settings
Users can c reate Prot ocol VLAN g roups a nd add protocols t o that group. T he 802.1v Protocol VLAN Group Set tings s upport
multiple VLANs for each protocol and allows the user to configure the untagged ports of different protocols on the same physical
port. For example, it allows the user to configure an 802.1Q and 802.1v untagged port on the same physical port. The lower half
of the table displays any previously created groups.

The following fields can be set:
Parameter Description
Group ID
Select an ID number for the group, between 1 and 8.
Group Name
This is used to identify the new Protocol VLAN group. Type an alphanumeric string of up to 32
characters.
Protocol
This function maps packets to protocol-defined VLANs by examining the type octet within the
packet header to discover the type of protocol associated with it. Use the drop-down menu to
toggle between Ethernet II, IEEE802.3 LLC, and IEEE802.3 SNAP.
Protocol Value
Enter a value for the Group. The protocol value is used to identify a protocol of the frame type
specified. The form of the input is 0x0 to 0xffff. Depending on the frame type, the octet string
will have one of the following values: For Ethernet II, this is a 16-bit (2-octet) hex value. For
example, IPv4 is 800, IPv6 is 86dd, ARP is 806, etc. For IEEE802.3 SNAP, this is this is a 16-
bit (2-octet) hex value. For IEEE802.3 LLC, this is the 2-octet IEEE 802.2 Link Service Access
Point (LSAP) pair. The first octet is for Destination Service Access Point (DSAP) and the
second octet is for Source.
