i am trying to understand when we can use hybrid ports on a huawei switch. i understand the difference between Trunk and Hybrid port, but so far I've been unable to find a scenario where i can see and understand better the use of Hybrid ports.
what i know:
hybrid ports can carry multiple untagged vlan traffic, while trunk ports can only carry untagged traffic for the default vlan.
Can anyone enlighten me where one can use a hybrid port?
Best Answer
imagine you want to seperate ipv4 and ipv6 traffic with different vlans,
you could use protocol based vlans (ethernetii etype 806) on hybrid ports.
since they're carrying two untagged vlans no further configuration is neccesary.
