VLAN Service
MA5600 Supports port- based VLAN and 802.1Q VLAN;
The applications as follow:
Standard VLAN
Smart VLAN
MUX VLAN
Super VLAN
QinQ VLAN
VLAN Stacking
HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Page 50All rights reserved
Smart VLAN
7/1/0
User User User…………………...User
MA5600
Upper network
vlan 20
The Smart VLAN is applied in residential area to provide access to
Internet.
Multiple downstream ports and one or multiple upstream port
can be grouped into a Smart VLAN.
The system creates internal mapping between the upstream
port and downstream ports.
Isolating subscribers on Layer 2.

Vlan 1 Vlan 2 Vlan 3 Vlan n
The MUX VLAN is applied in the occasions where different subscribers need be differentiated by different VLAN ID.
Only one service port but multiple upstream ports can be added to one MUX VLAN.
HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Page 52All rights reserved
Super VLAN
A Super VLAN comprises multiple Sub-VLAN.
All of the Sub-VLAN share one common Layer 3 interface as the
gateway.
Greatly saving IP segment resources.
Smart VLAN, MUX VLAN or Standard VLAN can act as Sub-
VLAN.
Sub-VLAN can contain any port or not.
HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD. Page 53All rights reserved
QinQ VLAN
In QinQ VLAN application, the packets are transmitted in the backbone network with two 802.1Q tags: a public VLAN tag and a private VLAN tag.
