Protocol VLAN is another way to classify VLANs based on network protocol. Protocol VLANs can
be sorted by IP, IPX, DECnet, AppleTalk, Banyan and so on. Through the Protocol VLANs, the
broadcast domain can span over multiple switches and the Host can change its physical position
in the network with its VLAN member role always effective. By creating Protocol VLANs, the
network administrator can manage the network clients based on their actual applications and
services effectively.
Protocol VLAN, another way to classify VLANs based on network protocol, can bind ToS provided
in the network to VLAN to realize the specific service. Through protocol VLAN, the switch can

protocol template according to different encapsulation formats and the values of the special fields.
If a packet is matched, the switch will add a corresponding VLAN tag to it automatically and thus
