VLAN Support
VLANs are collections of switching ports that comprise a single
broadcast domain. Packets are classified as belonging to a VLAN
based on either the VLAN tag or based on a combination of the
ingress port and packet contents. Packets sharing common
attributes can be grouped in the same VLAN.
VLAN-aware MAC-based Switching
The device always performs VLAN-aware bridging. Classic bridg-
ing(IEEE802.1D) is not performed, where frames are forwarded
based only on their destination MAC address. However, a similar
functionality may be configured for untagged frames. Frames
addressed to a destination MAC address that is not associated
with any port are flooded to all ports of the relevant VLAN.
Web Based Management
With web based management, the system can be managed from
any web browser. The system contains an Embedded Web
Server (EWS), which serves HTML pages, through which the sys-
tem can be monitored and configured. The system internally con-
verts web-based input into configuration commands, MIB variable
settings and other management-related settings.
