The said is the following:
The Catalyst 5000 series switch uses the SAID parameter of the set vlan
command to identify each VLAN on an 802.10 trunk. The default
SAID for VLAN 1 is 100001, for VLAN 2 is 100002, for VLAN 3 is 100003, and
so on.
802.10 Protocol on FDDI Ports
VLANs can be extended across an FDDI network by multiplexing switched
packets over a Copper Distributed Data Interface (CDDI)/FDDI
interface using the 802.10 protocol. Using 802.10, Catalyst 5000
CDDI/FDDI interface links can operate as interswitch trunks that
provide broadcast control between configured VLANs. The 802.10
protocol encapsulates a VLAN identifier and packet data according to
the IEEE 802.10 specification. CDDI/FDDI interfaces that support
802.10 make selective forwarding decisions within a network domain
based upon the VLAN identifier.
The VLAN identifier is a user-configurable four-byte SAID. The SAID
identifies traffic as belonging to a particular VLAN. It also
determines which VLAN each packet is switched to the bus.
Hope that answers your question.
