Port VLAN Identifier (PVID)
When an untagged packet is received on a port in a tagged VLAN, it is
assigned to one of the VLANs of which that port is a member. The
deciding factor in this process is the Port VLAN Identifier (PVID). Both
tagged and untagged ports in a tagged VLAN must have a PVID assigned
to them. The default value of the PVID for each port is 1. The switch
associates a received untagged packet to the VLAN ID that matches the
PVID assigned to the port, and the packet is only forwarded to those ports
that are members.
General Rules for Creating a Tagged VLAN
Here is a summary of the rules to observe when you create a tagged
VLAN:
Assign a unique name to each tagged VLAN.
Each tagged VLAN must be assigned a unique VLAN
ID. If a particular VLAN spans multiple switches, each
part of the VLAN on the different switches must be
assigned the same VLAN ID.
A tagged port can be a member of multiple VLANs.
The AT-GS950/16 Gigabit Ethernet Switch can support
up to 255 tagged VLANs per switch.
Private VLAN
Overview
Private VLANs create special broadcast domains in which the traffic of the
member ports is restricted to source ports. Ports in a private port VLAN
are only allowed to forward traffic to, and receive traffic from, a designated
source port, and are prohibited from forwarding traffic to each other.
An example application of a private port VLAN would be a library in which
user booths each have a computer with Internet access. In this situation, it
would usually be undesirable to allow communication between these
individual PCs. Connecting the computers to ports within a private isolated
VLAN would enable each computer to access the Internet or a library
server via a single connection, while preventing access between the
computers in the booths.
Another application for private port VLANs is to simplify IP address
assignments. Ports can be isolated from each other while still belonging to
the same subnet.
A private port VLAN consists of one or more forwarding ports and a source
port.
