Like this switch: https://www.alliedtelesis.com/sites/def ... 100a_0.pdf
see "Port-based VLAN Overview" from page 151
In some cases it very useful!
I'm not sure if I get what you want but afaik ROS supports VLANs on switch chip level. I'm even using it lol.
You can find info on CRS page how to set this up but all those settings (or at least most of them) are available on my RB2011 so i guess it's available everywhere where you have switch chip.

Configuration is a bit complex comparing to average ROS complexity but it should work just fine. I think you should be able to combine it with virtual interface level VLANs provided by ROS (this: http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Interface/VLAN). In worst case using patch cable and tiny loop xD
And WTF?! level complex compared to usual managed switch, but maybe it's just me.Configuration is a bit complex comparing to average ROS complexity ...
I meant that CLI for switch level VLANs in ROS feels goofy af. Especially in comparison with interface level VLANs config. And it's not just me I saw other people saying that as well. It just feels a bit "different" comparing to other CLI sections that seem to be more user friendly. This one looks really low level. Maybe more than it should. I think it's side effect of it being probably developed primarily with CRS in mind but still it's imo area to improve legibility in ROSAnd WTF?! level complex compared to usual managed switch, but maybe it's just me.Configuration is a bit complex comparing to average ROS complexity ...
No, currently routers with switch-chip can only Tagged Vlan (802.1Q).I'm not sure if I get what you want but afaik ROS supports VLANs on switch chip level.
There are 2 types of VLANs: port based and MAC based. and both are technically "tagged" because VLAN utilizes VLAN ID as some integral part. Everything else is abuse of VLAN term. If you mean just port isolation based on ports you can use master-port for that. You can create multiple "switch domains" by creating grups of ports with various master ports. lets say we have 5 port switch and we can create 2 isolated domains by setting:No, currently routers with switch-chip can only Tagged Vlan (802.1Q).I'm not sure if I get what you want but afaik ROS supports VLANs on switch chip level.
My suggestion about port-based Vlan.
It two absolutely different types of Vlan.
I saw it they can. It's what I just posted. If you really need those "names"/IDs for whatever reason (as they're completely useless if you don't export VLANs outside of switch) you can just rename master port interface egread first post link ("Port-based VLAN Overview" from page 151)
currently routers with switch-chip cannot do this.
HP 2500 switches dont support full featured Port-based Vlan (cannot put one port to two group) and overlapping Vlans supports only with Tagged Vlan (802.1Q) mode.https://community.hpe.com/t5/Switches-H ... -p/3652542
Here you can find some guy trying to do that on HP switch and it didn't work as expected.
