Solving the Problem
In this example, Switch 1 (S1) has already been configured with a default VLAN 0001 associated
with Filter Database Identifier (FDB ID) 0001 as the Port VLAN Identifier (PVID) on all ports.
The following additional steps are required to configure the switch to solve this problem.
1. Define a new VLAN (VLAN ID 2) using the Static VLAN Configuration screen.
2. Create a Layer 2 rule to associate the protocol AppleTalk 809B and 80F3 to VLAN ID 2 (VID 2)
using the VLAN Classification Configuration screen. This rule is assigned to all ports.
3. Enable the dynamic egress control on VLAN 2 using the Network Tools command
(dynamic_egress enable 2).
With the above configuration, an AppleTalk frame received on any port will be classified into
VLAN 2 (the AppleTalk VLAN), and the Port VLAN List of that port is updated to include
VLAN 2.
For instance, if Port 1 or 2 is connected to a new AppleTalk user, the AppleTalk frames received on
that port are dynamically associated with VLAN 2 and VLAN 2 is added to the Port VLAN List of
that port. The Port VLAN List contains a list of all VLANs whose frames can be transmitted out
that port.
In this example, the AppleTalk traffic is routed only to AppleTalk users (Ports 1, 2, 5, and 6), while
IP traffic is allowed to be seen by IP users (Ports 3, 4, and 7) and by IP/AppleTalk users (Ports 1, 2,
5, and 6).
