Abstract
Logic circuits are employed in a telecommunications bridge/router device to examine a received frame to determine which VLAN, if any, the frame is associated with. The protocol type, receive port identification, and receive VLAN tag are employed to determine the transmit port identification and transmit VLAN tag. A predefined table indicates which ports within the bridge/router are associated with the VLAN. The frame is excluded from transmission through the ports that are not associated with members of the respective the VLAN.
