VLAN groups are used for load balancing of traffic on a Layer 2 network. 

Packets are assigned a VLAN according to various classifications that have been 
configured (such as VLAN groups). 

If several classifications schemes are defined, packets are assigned to a VLAN in 
the following order:

•

TAG: If the packet is tagged, the VLAN is taken from the tag.

•

MAC-Based VLAN: If a MAC-based VLAN has been defined, the VLAN is 
taken from the source MAC-to-VLAN mapping of the ingress interface.

•

Protocol-Based VLAN: If a protocol-based VLAN has been defined, the 
VLAN is taken from the (Ethernet type) protocol-to-VLAN mapping of the 
ingress interface.

•

PVID: VLAN is taken from the port default VLAN ID.

MAC-based VLAN classification enable packets to be classified according to their 
source MAC address. You can then define MAC-to-VLAN mapping per interface.

You can define several MAC-based VLAN groups, which each group containing 
different MAC addresses.

These MAC-based groups can be assigned to specific ports/LAGs. MAC-based 
VLAN groups cannot contain overlapping ranges of MAC addresses on the same 
port.

The following table describes the availability of MAC-based VLAN groups in 
various SKUs:
