Static VLAN operation

You can configure IP addresses on all protocol VLANs, but IP addressing is used only on IPv4 and IPv6 VLANs.

Restrictions:

Loopback interfaces share the same IP address space with VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. configurations.

The maximum number of IP addresses supported on a switch is 2048; this includes all IP addresses configured for both VLANs and loopback interfaces (except for the default loopback IP address 127.0.0.1).

Each IP address configured on a VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. interface must be unique in the switch; it cannot be used by a VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. interface or another loopback interface.

For more information, see the chapter on "Configuring IP Addressing" in the Basic Operation Guide for AOS-S.

A port can be an untagged member of one protocol VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. of a specific protocol type, such as IPX Internetwork Packet Exchange. A network-layer protocol that defines how data is sent and received between systems. or IPv6. If the same protocol type is configured in multiple protocol VLANs, then a port can be an untagged member of only one of those. For example, if you have two protocol VLANs, 100 and 200 and both include IPX Internetwork Packet Exchange. A network-layer protocol that defines how data is sent and received between systems., then a port can be an untagged member of either VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. 100 or VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. 200, but not both.

A port's untagged VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. memberships can include up to four different protocol types. It can be an untagged member of one of the following:

• Four single-protocol VLANs

• Two protocol VLANs where one VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. includes a single protocol and the other includes up to three protocols

• One protocol VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. where the VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network. includes four protocols.

A port can be a tagged member of any protocol-based VLAN Virtual Local Area Network. Separate logical broadcast domain created within a physical network..

If the switch configuration enables IP routing, the switch can internally route IPv4 traffic as follows: Other protocol-based VLANs require an external router for moving traffic between VLANs.

• Between multiple IPv4 protocol-based VLANs

• Between IPv4 protocol-based VLANs and port-based VLANs.

NOTE: NETbeui and SNA Systems Network Architecture. A proprietary networking architecture, a complete protocol stack for interconnecting computers and their resources. are non-routable protocols. End stations intended to receive traffic in these protocols must be attached to the same physical network.
