A Frame processed by a Switch \(\mathcal{S}\)
\paragraph{Definition}
A frame \( \mathcal{F}_\mathcal{S} \)
processed by a switch \(\mathcal{S}\)
is a tuple \( \mathcal{F}_\mathcal{S} = (d, q) \) is a tuple \( \mathcal{F}_\mathcal{S} = (d, q) \)
consisting of a destination address \(d \in \mathbb{A} \) and a VLAN tag \( q \in \mathbb{V} \). consisting of a destination address \(d \in \mathbb{A} \)
and a VLAN tag \( q \in \mathbb{V} \).
When a Frame \( \mathcal{F}_\mathcal{S}' = (d, q') \) % TODO: switch checks if the port is even in the VLAN and discards it if not
When a frame \( \mathcal{F}_\mathcal{S} = (d, q) \)
enters a port \( p \in \mathbb{P}\) enters a port \( p \in \mathbb{P}\)
the Switch first ensures the Packet has a VLAN tag for internal processing the switch first ensures the frame has a VLAN tag for internal processing
assigned by creating a new Frame \( \mathcal{F}_\mathcal{S} = (d, q)\) with \(q = v(p, q')\). assigned by creating a new frame \( \mathcal{F}_\mathcal{S}^i = (d, q')\)
with \(q' = v(q, p)\).
\subsection{Broadcast processing} Next the switch checks if the VLAN is allowed on this port. When
\( v(q, p) = \eta \)
the frame is dropped and processing of this frame is complete.
% This could also be before assigning the PVID because v(ε, p) can only be VLANs
% q that are not t(q, p) = η
When the Frame's destination address \( d = \beta \) \paragraph{Unicast processing}
the Switch creates a new Frame for each port When the frame's destination address \(d\)
\( p \in \{\, p \mid t(p, \_) \,\} \) is not the broadcast address the switch first determines the egress port
in the following manner: \(p = a(d, q)\).
If it is not defined the frame is dropped and processing of this frame is
complete. Next the final egress frame is created as in equation
\eqref{eq:egress}. \( \mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}, p}^{e} \)
is then transmitted out port \(p\) and processing of this frame is complete.
\begin{equation}\label{eq:egress} \begin{equation}\label{eq:egress}
\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}, p}^{e} = \mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}, p}^{e} =
\left\{ \left\{
\begin{array}{ll} \begin{array}{ll}
(d,q) & \mbox{if } t(p, q) = \tau \\ (d,q) & \mbox{if } t(q, p) = \tau \\
(d, \epsilon) & \mbox{if } t(p, q) = \upsilon\\ (d, \epsilon) & \mbox{if } t(q, p) = \upsilon\\
\end{array} \end{array}
\right. \right.
\end{equation} \end{equation}
\( \mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}, p}^{e} \) \paragraph{Broadcast processing}
is then transmitted out port \(p\) and processing of this Frame is complete. When the frame's destination address \( d = \beta \)
the switch creates a new frame for each port
\( p \in \{\, p \mid \forall q.\; t(q, p) \neq \eta \,\} \)
as in equation \eqref{eq:egress}. The frames \( \mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}, p}^{e} \)
are then transmitted out each port \(p\)
respectively and processing of this frame is complete.
\subsection{Unicast processing}
When the Frame's destination address \(d\) is not the broadcast address the Switch first determines the egress port \(p = a(d, q)\). Then a new Frame is created as in equation \ref{eq:egress}. \( \mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{S}, p}^{e} \)
is then transmitted out port \(p\) and processing of this Frame is complete.

% \section{Version history}
% Current Version: 2
% When frames are dropped was not considered,
% Arguments to \(v\) were swapped,
% Requirement for port PVIDs to actually be a member of the VLAN added
% Made ARP table a partial function (duh)
