protocol process and data driving. The data forwarding is automatically completed. The management plane processes data configuration and notifies the current operation status. The configuration is basically completed under an interactive environment.

ZX10R 2600 series provide the layer 2 switching function, VLAN management function, IGMP Snooping function, and QoS policy. The system has reserved interfaces for the convenience of future development.

4.3.2 Data Processing Procedure

4.3.2.1 Data Exchange Process

For a switch, data exchange actually means forwarding data from port to port. After receiving a data frame, the switch sends it to the proper port according to the destination MAC address in the frame header.

The switch completely depends on an important internal data structure CAM table (namely, the MAC address table) to select ports according to the destination MAC address. The CAM table contains information of MAC address and port identification (such as port ID) at least. When a packet reaches a port, the switch will check the destination MAC address in the address table and display the destination address of the port. If the destination address is an inbound port, the packet will be discarded or filtered because it is addressed to the local lot. If the destination address is another port, the packet will be forwarded to the port and queued until it is output. If the destination address is not in the address table, the data frame will be sent to all ports other than the source port. If the source address of the packet is not found in the address table, the source address and the inbound port ID will be recorded to determine the subsequent forwarding.

A layer 2 Ethernet switch exchanges data in the following three steps:

• Address learning: The switch receives a data frame at one port and checks the CAM table according to the source MAC address of the data frame. If the MAC does not exist in the CAM table, the switch will add related information (including the source port ID) of the MAC to the CAM table. In this way, address learning is completed.

• Forwarding decision: After address learning, the switch will search the CAM table according to the destination MAC address of the data frame. If the MAC is found, the switch will send the data frame to the send queue of the corresponding port according to the search result (including the source port identification). If the MAC is not in the address table, the switch will send the data frame to all ports other than the source port. This process is called flooding.

• Data forwarding: After making the forwarding decision, the switch will forward the data frame by means of the hardware.

4.3.2.2 Flow Direction of VLAN Data Packet

In consideration of the network security and convenient management, the VLAN technology is adopted in the current network deployment. The following describes the flow direction of data packets in the VLAN. The VLAN processing procedure is as follows:

• Data frame inbound: The switch classifies inbound data frames according to their VLAN identification (VID): data frames without VID into one category and those with the same VID into another category. The switch forwards or discards a data packet according to the VID. Meanwhile, the switch can assign a VID to a frame without any labeling or a frame labeled as priority.

• VLAN tag: If a data frame has no VID, the switch will assign a VID to it and insert it into the frame header. This process is called “Label VLAN”. The switch handles packet forwarding and fills the VLAN of the data frame or the identification field of the priority information through this process. The administrator can set the priority to select the type of VLAN and the VID. The default setting of the switch includes the IP subnet information, the network protocol, the MAC address, and the inbound port of the data frame.

• Filtering: The process verifies whether the destination address and the source address are in the same VLAN.

• Forwarding: The switch either forwards a data frame or discards it according to the information of the VLAN database.

• Learning: The switch checks the source address of the data frame and VLAN classification information and records them in the forwarding database.

The port mode of ZXR10 2600 series is divided into access mode and trunk mode. The port mode determines the data output form, namely, whether the VLAN data packet is output directly or output with the Tag removed after the switch makes a forwarding decision.

As far as the encapsulation of data packets is concerned, ZXR10 2600 series are the same as most Ethernet switches. That is, when an untagged data packet reaches a port, the switch encapsulates a tag for the packet according to the PVID of the port and then determines the VID according to the tag. Finally the switch searches the destination site of the data packet in the same VLAN. If the destination MAC address is found, the data packet will reach the destination. If the destination MAC address is not determined or found, the data packet will be broadcast in the same VLAN or directly discarded.
