Protocol VLAN Configuration
To complete protocol VLAN configuration, follow these steps:
1) Configure 802.1Q VLAN.
2) Create protocol template.
3) Configure Protocol VLAN.
Configuration Guidelines
■ You can use the IP, ARP, RARP, and other protocol templates provided by TP-Link
switches, or create new protocol templates.
■ In a protocol VLAN, when a port receives an untagged data packet, the switch will first
search for the protocol VLAN matching the protocol type value of the packet. If there
is a match, the switch will insert the corresponding VLAN tag to the data packet and
forward it within the VLAN. Otherwise, the switch will forward the data packet to the
default VLAN based on the PVID (Port VLAN ID) of the receiving port. (If MAC VLAN is
also configured, the switch will first process Protocol VLAN, then MAC VLAN.) When
the port receives a tagged data packet, the switch will directly process the data packet
according to the processing rule of the 802.1 Q VLAN.
2.1 Using the GUI
2.1.1 Configuring 802.1Q VLAN
Before configuring protocol VLAN, create an 802.1Q VLAN and set the port type according
to network requirements. For details, refer to Configuring 802.1Q VLAN.
