REASON SWITCHES-TM-EN-3

7. GOOSE VID number is 10;

8. Sampled Values VID number is 20;

9. PTP VID number is 30;

10. Management VLAN to be used internally by the switch will be the VID

number 1.

With information given below, it is possible to go to the Settings VLANs menu to

start configuration process. The configuration of the VLANs should be as follows:

 Switch configuration where Merging Unit is connected

o Port where the Merging Unit is Connected:

This port will receive untagged and tagged frames and send tagged frames from

many VID, as Merging Units will multicast GOOSE and Sampled Values and receive

PTP messages. In addition, management software will communicate with the

equipment in that port. Thus, Merging Unit configuration ports should have the

following characteristics:

 VLAN Identifier Ingress process: untagged frames would

be forwarded to the Port VID VLAN, and tagged frames

are forwarded to the VLAN that is embedded at the frame;

 Filtering ingress process: this port should accept both

untagged and tagged frames;

 Egress process: egress process should be set to Untag

only frames with Port VLAN identifier.

Thus, configuration of the port where the Merging Unit is connected should be as

follows.

 Port mode should be chosen as Trunk port;

 Port VLAN should be 1;

 For trunk ports, Port Type is not allowed to be

changed from C-Port;

 For trunk ports, Ingress Filtering is not allowed to

be changed from enabled;

 For trunk ports, Ingress Acceptance is not

allowed to be changed from Tagged and

Untagged;

 Egress tagging should be chosen as Untag Port

VLAN;
