4.1.6 LAN Port Mapping
WHG301 supports multiple Service Zones in either of the two VLAN modes, Port-Based or Tag-Based, but not
concurrently. In Port-Base mode, each LAN port can only serve traffic from one Service Zone as each Service Zone
is identified by physical LAN ports. In Tag-Based mode, each LAN port can serve traffic from any Service Zone as
each Service Zone is identified by VLAN tags carried within message frames. By default, the system is in
Port-Based mode with Default Service Zone enabled and all LAN ports are mapped to Default Service Zone.
