Setting the S-VLAN Ethertype
The Ethertype value that is associated with the Service VLAN (S-VLAN) is set globally for the unit. The S-VLAN Ethertype options are:
- 0x88A8: Most applications use this value
- 0x9100: A supported legacy value
The S-VLAN value is typically left at the default of 0x88A8.
If you change the S-VLAN Ethertype value to 0x9100, the T-VLAN Ethertype value will automatically be switched to 0x88A8. All units in a given network that use the S-VLAN Ethertype must have the same assigned Ethertype value.
Tip: To avoid issues related to changing the S-VLAN value, consider assigning the appropriate value to the S-VLAN Ethertype before creating system elements that require a defined Ethertype, such as interfaces, filters and RFC-2544.
For more information on specific parameters, refer to the table "General System Settings (System ▶Configuration ▶Traffic ▶Mode)".
Regulating Management Traffic
As with other traffic types, it can be useful to regulate management traffic.
To set up the management traffic regulation (MTR)
Access the page System ▶Configuration ▶Traffic ▶Mode.
Enable the MTR State box.
Complete the other parameters, then click Apply.
For more information on specific parameters, refer to the following table.
