Configuring MAC-based VLANs
– 164 –
CONFIGURING MAC-BASED VLANS
Use the MAC-based VLAN Membership Configuration page to configure
VLAN based on MAC addresses. The MAC-based VLAN feature assigns VLAN
IDs to ingress untagged frames according to the source MAC addresses.
When MAC-based VLAN classification is enabled, untagged frames received
by a port are assigned to the VLAN which is mapped to the frame’s source
MAC address. When no MAC address is matched, untagged frames are
assigned to the receiving port’s native VLAN ID (PVID).
PATH
Configuration, VCL, MAC-based VLANs
COMMAND USAGE
â—† Source MAC addresses can be mapped to only one VLAN ID.
â—† Configured MAC addresses cannot be broadcast or multicast addresses.
â—† When MAC-based and protocol-based VLANs are both enabled, priority
is applied in this sequence, and then port-based VLANs last.
PARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed:
◆ MAC Address – A source MAC address which is to be mapped to a
specific VLAN. The MAC address must be specified in the format xx-xx-
xx-xx-xx-xx.
◆ VLAN ID – VLAN to which ingress traffic matching the specified source
MAC address is forwarded. (Range: 1-4093)
◆ Port Members – The ports assigned to this VLAN.
WEB INTERFACE
To map a MAC address to a VLAN:
1. Click Configuration, VCL, MAC-based VLANs.
2. Enter an address in the MAC Address field.
3. Enter an identifier in the VLAN field. Note that the specified VLAN need
not already be configured.
