Abstract

See full text

A data transmission network having a port-based default VLAN that limits flooding to other VLANs. The default VLAN receives a data packet, ascertains the destination address of the packet, and then determines if the destination port is one of the default VLAN ports. The data packet is transmitted to the destination port if it is one of the default VLAN ports, or to each of the default VLAN ports if the destination port is not one of the default VLAN ports. The data packet is not transmitted to any other non-default VLAN port.
