Description

Ieee8021qLayer

compound module

Implements IEEE 802.1Q protocol functionality as a layered architecture with policy and protocol components. The policy submodule handles VLAN filtering and mapping, while the protocol submodule manages tag encapsulation/ decapsulation. Supports both C-VLAN (0x8100) and S-VLAN (0x88A8) tag types through configuration. Enables network segmentation and traffic control in Ethernet networks by processing VLAN tags according to configured policies.

Ieee8021qProtocol

compound module

Implements the IEEE 802.1Q protocol encapsulation/decapsulation. It also provides socket support so applications can use the protocol directly.
