VLAN translation is a feature that consists of VLAN translation policies and [VLAN translation rules](./vlantranslationrule.md). Many rules can belong to a policy, and each rule defines a mapping of a local to remote VLAN ID (VID). A policy can then be assigned to an [Interface](../dcim/interface.md) or [VMInterface](../virtualization/vminterface.md), and all VLAN translation rules associated with that policy will be visible in the interface details.
|
||||
|
||||
Within a policy, local VIDs and remote VIDs are independently unique. Thus, two different policies may contain rules that define a local VID of 100 or a remote VID of 200, but two rules within a single policy with `local_vid=100` or with `remote_vid=200` are prohibited.
|
||||
There are uniqueness constraints on `(policy, local_vid)` and on `(policy, remote_vid)` in the `VLANTranslationRule` model. Thus, you cannot have multiple rules linked to the same policy that have the same local VID or the same remote VID. A set of policies and rules might look like this:
|
||||
|
||||
Policy 1:
|
||||
- Rule: 100 -> 200
|
||||
- Rule: 101 -> 201
|
||||
|
||||
Policy 2:
|
||||
- Rule: 100 -> 300
|
||||
- Rule: 101 -> 301
|
||||
|
||||
However this is not allowed:
|
||||
|
||||
Policy 3:
|
||||
- Rule: 100 -> 200
|
||||
- Rule: 100 -> 300
|
||||
|
||||

# VLAN Translation Rules
|
||||
|
||||
A VLAN translation rule represents a one-to-one mapping of a local VLAN ID (VID) to a remote VID. Many rules can belong to a single policy.
|
||||
|
||||
See [VLAN translation policies](./vlantranslationpolicy.md) for an overview of the VLAN Translation feature.
