Each connection (VID) must belong to one group and one group only Each connection (VID) must belong to one link and one link only Each group can have only one connection (VID) at a subscriber or section

A pass-through group is used to pass “untagged packets” and “tagged, but undefined” packets

There can be only one pass-through group at a SC There can be only one pass-through connection at a SS

Campus Network ScenarioCampus Network Scenario

Between Subscriber (SS1) and Switch (SW1) Each VLAN segment is assigned a unique VID E.g. Dept 1 packets are tagged w/ VID=300 Each VID has a CIR (minimum bit rate)

For each VLAN segment A virtual group is defined as a multicast domain E.g. Group I for Dept 1 at Site 1 and Site 2 Each group has a multicast CIR

Within each virtual group VID can differ at each site E.g. Group II for Dept 2

packet VID=400 at Site 1 packet VID=700 at Site 2

Data between Dept 1 & 2 Through Router Layer 3 connectivity only

• Dept 1 packets tagged with VID= 300




• All Dept 1 connections set to Group I

• All Dept 2 connections set to Group II
