STEP 1 Click VLAN Management > VLAN Groups > MAC-Based Groups to VLAN.
STEP 2 Click Add.
STEP 3 Enter the values for the following fields:
• Group Type—Displays that the group is MAC-Based.
• Interface—Enter a general interface (port/LAG) through which traffic is
received.
• Group ID—Select a VLAN group, defined in the MAC-Based Groups page
.
• VLAN ID—Select the VLAN to which traffic from the VLAN group is
forwarded.
STEP 4 Click Apply to set the mapping of the VLAN group to the VLAN. This mapping
does not bind the interface dynamically to the VLAN; the interface must be
manually added to the VLAN.)
Protocol-based VLANs
Groups of protocols can be defined and then bound to a port. After the protocol
group is bound to a port, every packet originating from a protocol in the group is
assigned the VLAN that is configured in the Protocol-Based Groups page.
Workflow
To define a protocol-based VLAN group:
1. Define a protocol group (using the Protocol-Based Groups page).
2. For each required interface, assign the protocol group to a VLAN (using
Protocol-Based Groups to VLAN page). The interfaces must be in General mode
and cannot have a Dynamic VLAN (DVA) assigned to it.
Protocol-Based Groups
Use the Protocol-Based Groups page to define a set of protocols.
STEP 1 Click VLAN Management > VLAN Groups > Protocol-Based Groups.
The Protocol-Based Groups Page contains the following fields:
• Encapsulation—Displays the protocol on which the VLAN group is based.
