8.4.3 Configuring VLANs on virtual switches
The VLAN-backed vswitch (VBVsw) feature enables a virtual switch to be backed by a physical
network device with HP-UX VLAN (IEEE 802.1Q) configured. The feature allows this type of vswitch
to function such as a vswitch that is bound to a physical interface or an aggregate. Each VLAN
backing the vswitch can be considered as a single network even though it is a discrete logical
LAN managed by the VSP.
On the VSP, you can configure multiple VLAN interfaces on a guest LAN backed by VBVsw type
vswitch. The network traffic delivered to and from the guest is filtered using the VLAN ID. Guest
LANs backed to the vswitch that has VLAN configured share the same VLAN ID. Thus, these guest
LANs can communicate with each other as if they were on the same physical network.
For more information about VLANs on HP-UX, see the HP-UX VLAN Administrator's Guide for HP-UX
11i v3 and Planning and Implementing VLANs with HP-UX manuals.
