Static Virtual LANs (VLANs)
VLAN Operating Rules
tagged member must have the same VID as that carried by the inbound,
tagged packets generated on that VLAN.)
Caution Rate-limiting may behave unpredictably on a VLAN if the VLAN spans
multiple modules or port-banks. This also applies if a port on a different
module or port-bank is added to an existing VLAN. ProCurve does not recom-
mend configuring rate-limiting on VLANs that include ports spanning modules
or port-banks.
In figure 2-9 ports 2, 3, and 24 form one VLAN. The ports are in the same port-
bank, which includes ports 1 through 24. Ports 28, 29, and 32 form a second
VLAN. These ports are also in the same port-bank, which includes ports 25
through 48. Rate-limiting will operate as expected for these VLANs.

VLAN “A”?
No
Forward the
packet to any port

Note that the outbound
port can be either a
tagged or untagged
member of the VLAN.
