How do I setup IP (Internet Protocol), MAC (Media Access Control), and Protocol-Based VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks) on the NVT Phybridge FLEX24-10G (NV-FLX-024-10G) switch?

IP, MAC, and Protocol-Based VLANs allow for dynamic VLAN assignment based on ingress packet characteristics.
For example, a MAC-based VLAN allows any individual to physically connect to a network from any ethernet interface and that individual will be assigned to a specific VLAN. When the interface detects ingress traffic, it will examine the entries of the MAC to the VLAN table for the specific interface. If an entry is found for the source MAC address of the ingress traffic, such traffic will be assigned to the VLAN in the
entry.
Similar configurations can be carried out where instead of examining the source MAC of ingress traffic, either the IP address or frame protocol is examined. If the IP address or protocol matches an entry in the switch’s IP to VLAN or Protocol to VLAN table respectively, the traffic will be assigned to the VLAN specified in the entry.
Allowing a host’s VLAN membership to be dynamically assigned by the switch, greatly decreases the amount of manual configuration required by the network administrator as a host can use a static IP (assuming the IP address is not in use on the network) or MAC address and always be assigned to the correct VLAN.

Refer to the Admin Guide for all the advanced settings available in the switch. You’ll find additional resources like the Datasheet, Admin Guide, A&E spec sheet, etc on the product page here.
