Feature Limitations
- The source and destination interfaces specified in the vlan-switch command must be hybrid or trunk interfaces, and cannot be access interfaces or Eth-Trunk member interfaces.
- The VLANs used in the VLAN Switch function cannot be created in the system view.
- When double-tagged VLAN switch is configured, both
inbound and outbound interfaces must be located on the X series cards
and LE1D2S04SEC0/LE1D2X32SEC0/LE1D2H02QEC0 cards or not the X series
cards and LE1D2S04SEC0/LE1D2X32SEC0/LE1D2H02QEC0 cards. For example:
- if GE1/0/1 is located on the X series cards and GE2/0/1 is located
on the non-X series cards (excluding LE1D2S04SEC0/LE1D2X32SEC0/LE1D2H02QEC0
cards), the switch does not support the following setting.
vlan-switch name2 interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 vlan 10 inner-vlan 100 interface gigabitethernet 2/0/1 switch-vlan 20
- if GE1/0/1 is located on the X series cards and GE2/0/1 is located
on the LE1D2S04SEC0 cards, the switch support the following setting.
vlan-switch name2 interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 vlan 10 inner-vlan 100 interface gigabitethernet 2/0/1 switch-vlan 20
- if GE1/0/1 is located on the X series cards and GE2/0/1 is located
on the non-X series cards (excluding LE1D2S04SEC0/LE1D2X32SEC0/LE1D2H02QEC0
cards), the switch does not support the following setting.
- The switch still forwards the packets matching
VLAN Switch entries when VLAN Switch is configured on the interface
of a card (excluding the X series cards and LE1D2S04SEC0/LE1D2X32SEC0/LE1D2H02QEC0)
and packets are discarded, including but not limited to the following
situations:
- The STP status of the interface is Blocking.
- The action is set to discard when the interface does not learn MAC address entries.
- The MAC address of packets is all 0s.
- The packets contain the blackhole MAC address.
- The VLANs used in QinQ cannot be used by the VLAN Switch function.
- When an outer VLAN tag in double-tagged frames is used for VLAN stacking, VLAN mapping, or control VLAN, the VLAN tag cannot be used by the VLAN Switch function.
- On a ring network, packets matching VLAN Switch entries can pass through the interfaces blocked by loop prevention protocols. Consequently, broadcast storms may occur. Therefore, the VLAN Switch function is not recommended for a ring network.
- SA cards of S series do not support stack-vlan.
