VLAN groups are used for load balancing of traffic on a Layer 2 network.
Packets are assigned a VLAN according to various classifications.
If several classifications schemes are defined, packets are assigned to a VLAN in the
following order:
•
TAG—If the packet is tagged, the VLAN is taken from the tag.
•
MAC-Based VLAN—If a MAC-based VLAN has been defined, the VLAN is taken
from the source MAC-to-VLAN mapping of the ingress interface.
•
Subnet-Based VLAN—If a subnet-based VLAN has been defined, the VLAN is taken
from the source IP-to-VLAN mapping of the ingress interface.
•
Protocol-Based VLAN—If a protocol-based VLAN has been defined, the VLAN is
taken from the (Ethernet type) protocol-to-VLAN mapping of the ingress interface.
•
PVID—VLAN is taken from the port default VLAN ID.
MAC-based VLAN Group Overview
MAC-based VLAN classification enable packets to be classified according to their source
MAC address. You can then define MAC-to-VLAN mapping per interface.
You can define several MAC-based VLAN groups, which each group containing different
MAC addresses.
These MAC-based groups can be assigned to specific ports/LAGs. MAC-based VLAN groups
cannot contain overlapping ranges of MAC addresses on the same port.
Workflow
To define a MAC-based VLAN group:
1. Assign a MAC address to a VLAN group ID (using the
2. For each required interface:
a. Assign the VLAN group to a VLAN (using
interfaces must be in General mode.
b. If the interface does not belong to the VLAN, manually assign it to the VLAN using the
