Usage Guidelines
Supported protocol types include:

- llc—LLC Service Advertising Protocol.
- snap—Ethertype inside an IEEE SNAP packet encapsulation.
A maximum of 15 protocol filters, each containing a maximum of six protocols, can be defined.
The protocol filter must already exist before you can use this command. Use the create protocol command to create the protocol filter.
No more than seven protocols can be active and configured for use.
Note
Protocol-based VLAN for Etype from 0x0000 to 0x05ff are not classifying as per filter. When traffic arrive with these Etypes, it is classifed to native VLAN rather protocol-based VLAN.Example
The following example adds MPLS to "my_filter":
configure protocol “my_filter” add etype 0x8847 configure protocol filter “my_filter” add etype 0x8847
The following example deletes MPLS from "my_other_filter":
configure protocol “my_other_filter” delete etype 0x8847 configure protocol filter “my_other_filter” delete etype 0x8847
