Chapter 10 VLAN
GS1510 Series User’s Guide
64
The CFI (Canonical Format Indicator) is a single-bit flag, always set to zero for 
Ethernet switches. If a frame received at an Ethernet port has a CFI set to 1, then 
that frame should not be forwarded as it is to an untagged port. The remaining 
twelve bits define the VLAN ID, giving a possible maximum number of 4,096 
VLANs. Note that user priority and VLAN ID are independent of each other. A 
frame with VID (VLAN Identifier) of null (0) is called a priority frame, meaning that 
only the priority level is significant and the default VID of the ingress port is given 
as the VID of the frame. Of the 4096 possible VIDs, a VID of 0 is used to identify 
priority frames and value 4095 (FFF) is reserved, so the maximum possible VLAN 
configurations are 4,094. 
10.3.2  Forwarding Tagged and Untagged Frames 
Each port on the Switch is capable of passing tagged or untagged frames. To 
forward a frame from an 802.1Q VLAN-aware switch to an 802.1Q VLAN-unaware 
switch, the Switch first decides where to forward the frame and then strips off the 
VLAN tag. To forward a frame from an 802.1Q VLAN-unaware switch to an 802.1Q 
VLAN-aware switch, the Switch first decides where to forward the frame, and then 
inserts a VLAN tag reflecting the ingress port's default VID. The default PVID is 
VLAN 1 for all ports, but this can be changed.
A broadcast frame (or a multicast frame for a multicast group that is known by the 
system) is duplicated only on ports that are members of the VID (except the 
ingress port itself), thus confining the broadcast to a specific domain. 
10.4  Port Isolation
Use this screen to restrict specific ports on the Switch from communicating with 
each other.  This screen can also be used to specify which ports will forward 
received packets to other ports on the Switch.
