Avaya P460 Layer 2 Features 

Multi VLAN binding, also known as Multiple VLANs per port, allows access to 
shared resources by stations that belong to different VLANs through the same port. 
This is useful in applications such as multi-tenant networks, where each user has his 
or her own VLAN for privacy. The whole building has a shared high-speed 
connection to the ISP. 
In order to accomplish this, the P460 enables multiple VLANs per port. The three 
available Port Multi-VLAN binding modes are: 
•  Bound to All - the port is programmed to support the entire 4K VLANs range. 

Traffic from any VLAN is forwarded through a port defined as “Bound to All”. 
This is intended mainly for easy backbone link configuration 

•  Bound to Configured - the port supports all the VLANs configured in the 

switch. These may be either PVIDs (Port VLAN IDs) or VLANs that were 
manually added to the switch. 

•  Statically Bound - the port supports VLANs manually configured on it. 
Figure 4.3 shows these binding modes.

Only VLAN 9, and any other 
VLANs statically configured 
on the port will be allowed to

through this port 

- VLANs 1,3,5,9,10 coming from the bus

backbone link configuration 

- All the ports in Bound to Configured 

mode support the same list of VLANs
