Configure ETH Ports ZTE (AdminOLT)

AdminOLT has integrated a feature to configure ETH ports. You can send VLANs in different modes such as Trunk, Hybrid, Access, and Transparent, and thus place them in each of these modes to be sent specifically over the ETH ports.

Difference between Trunk, Hybrid, Access, and Transparent modes?

Access: This type of port configuration only allows one VLAN to pass, packets are untagged, and it is generally used to connect end devices. If a switch is connected, its ports will be left with a single VLAN

Trunk: It is a channel configuration for switch ports in an Ethernet network that allows multiple VLANs to pass over a single link, i.e., a trunk link is a channel that can be switch-switch or switch-router, through which information originated and destined to more than one VLAN can pass

Hybrid: Hybrid ports are similar to trunk ports. They can also allow multiple VLANs to pass, receive, and send packets from multiple VLANs, and can be used between switches or on computer ports connecting users. The difference between the trunk port is that the hybrid port can allow multiple VLANs to be sent without tagging, while the trunk port only allows packets of the default VLAN to be sent untagged

Transparent: Transparent LAN service is a service of an operator that connects remote Ethernet networks. It is called "transparent" because the connected networks are seen as a contiguous network by the client, regardless of the technology implemented by the intermediate operator.

How to activate the ETH port configuration?

1 Go to the ONU>Authorized section and select the ONU you want to work with.

Information

For this process, it is recommended that the ONU you are working with is reset and authorized in AdminOLT in bridging mode. If you have doubts about how to perform this last action, you can follow the instructions in the Authorize ONU manual.

If you meet these recommendations, check the ONU Details.

2 Go to the Tools>ETH Port Configuration section.

3 Click on the Activate ETH Port Configuration button.

How do I change the configuration of my ETH ports?

1 In ETH Port Configuration, go to the configuration button of the ETH port you want to configure

2 In the modal that appears, you can choose the configuration options you want to set

Access

Set the mode option to Access, enter a VLAN in the Vlan ID option, select the DHCP type, and save the change
