membership is automatically restored when the port is removed from the LAG.<br />

Forwarding Rules<br />

Forwarding rules are based on the following attributes:<br />

• VLAN membership<br />

• Spanning tree state (forwarding)<br />

• Frame type (unicast or multicast)<br />

• Filters<br />

Egress Rules<br />

• Spanning tree state (forwarding)<br />

• VLAN membership<br />

• Untagged frames only forwarded if embedded addresses are canonical<br />

Exempt Frames<br />

• Spanning tree BPDUs<br />

• GVRP BPDUs<br />

• Frames used for control purposes, e.g. LAG PDUs, flow control<br />

VLAN Mode Commands<br />

The starting point for VLAN command syntax statements is the VLAN Commands chapter (Chapter 7) in<br />

the SFTOS Command Reference.<br />
