A trunk port is known as a single switch port that allows multiple VLANs to traverse through, enabling the efficient management of network traffic between switches and routers. While Zyxel switches like the GS1200 series may not have a direct 'trunk port' feature like Cisco, you can achieve similar functionality by…
The priority of VLAN assignment from high to low should be: Vendor-ID based VLAN > Voice VLAN > MAC-based VLAN > Subnet-based VLAN > Protocol-based VLAN > Port-based VLAN > PVID
Scenario: I have GS1900 series switches and have configured Link Aggregation group in switch 1 (port 1 & port 2 as trunk group LAG1). Now I want to put this trunk group into VLAN 100. How should I configure the VLAN setting? Setup Procedure: In GS1900 series, there will be trunk group (LAG1, LAG2, ...) shown in VLAN…
VLAN Mapping provides a mechanism to map a Customer VLAN to a service provider’s VLAN (Translated-VLAN). Packets received on a port will map to a Translated VLAN based on a port ID and customer VLAN ID from packets. VLAN Mapping also can be used to prevent traffic from forwarding between different customers when they use…
The example shows administrators how to configure the switch to provide dynamic IP addresses to hosts in each VLANs. Note: All network IP addresses and subnet masks are used as examples in this article. Please replace them with your actual network IP addresses and subnet masks. This example was tested using XGS4600-32…
The example shows administrators how to set up the switch to make separate traffic between departments. Using Static VLAN, hosts accessing the same VLAN will only be able to communicate with hosts accessing the same VLAN. Note: All network IP addresses and subnet masks are used as examples in this article. Please replace…
The example shows administrators how to use Voice VLAN to improve Voice traffic. Like the introduction in topic 6.2, Voice VLAN not only groups voice traffic into an assigned VLAN, but also assign the voice traffic a certain priority. Administrators can use this priority to improve Voice traffic quality. The Voice VLAN…
The example shows administrators how to use LLDP-MED to configure an IP Phone’s VLAN ID. Any IP Phone connected to the switch will be assigned to the certain VLAN based on the switch’s port. In the following topic, we will also introduce other ways to send VOIP traffic into a specific (Voice) VLAN. Implementing VOIP allows…
Hi guys, let's have an example scenario using voice VLAN to separate voice packets from other service packets, and prioritize the voice packet to enhance the voice quality to users. Scenario: Nowadays IP phones are commonly used in office environments, to give voice traffic a higher priority is an important consideration…
The current behavior in the GS1900 series is to process the packets that originally have the tag (which should match the voice VLAN's VID). For other untagged packets, the GS1900 will not do anything. We have already noticed this and the GS1900 series’s behavior of voice VLAN will be modified in order to make Zyxel product…
