PROTOCOL VLAN GROUP COMMANDS
For bridges that implement Port-and-Protocol-based VLAN classification, the VID associated with an Untagged or
Priority-tagged Frame is determined based on the Port of arrival of the frame into the bridge and on the protocol identifier
of the frame. If there is no protocol VLAN configured on the ingress port, all the untagged packets incoming on the port
will be classified into PVID VLAN. This classification mechanism requires defining the protocol groups which specified
frame type and protocol value to match for. A protocol group can be bound to a port and given a VLAN ID. If the incoming
untagged packet matches the protocol group the VLAN ID will be assigned. A port can bind with multiple protocol groups.
This allows untagged packets be classified into different VLANs based on packet content. The same protocol group can
be assigned to multiple ports with different VLAN ID assigned, i.e. the same protocol can be given different VLAN ID
through binding to different ports.
The Protocol VLAN Group commands in the Command Line Interface (CLI) are listed (along with the appropriate
parameters) in the following table.
Command Parameter
create dot1v_protocol_group group_id <id>
config dot1v_protocol_group group_id <id> [add | delete] protocol [ethernet_2 | ieee802.3_snap |
ieee802.3_llc] <protocol_value>
delete dot1v_protocol_group group_id <id>
show dot1v_protocol_group {group_id <id>}
config port dot1v ports [<portlist> | all] [add protocol_group group_id <id> [vlan < vlan_name 32> |
vlanid <vlanid>] | delete protocol_group [group_id <id> | all]]
show port dot1v {ports <portlist>}
Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
create dot1v_protocol_group
Purpose Used to create a protocol group.
Syntax
create dot1v_protocol_group group_id <id>
Description
This command will create a protocol group. This group is to be configured using the config
dot1v_protocol_group command where users may set the parameters for this group. After
being configured, this group may be attached to a port or range of ports using the config port
dot1v command.
Parameters
group_id <id> − Enter an integer from 1 to 16 to identify the protocol VLAN group being created
here.
Restrictions Only Administrator and Operator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To create a protocol group:
