Configuring Ingress VLAN

You can use the Ingress VLAN functionality to assign dedicated identification tags (VLAN Tags) and thereby creating a mapping between the network port and tool ports. Traffic received on network ports can be added with an additional VLAN tag and sent towards the tools for identifying the Network Port. Ingress VLAN is configured in the interface configuration of the network port.
