Allied Telesis AT-9724TS Switch User Manual


 
Parameter Description
Unit Choose the Switch ID number of the Switch in the switch stack to be modified.
VID (VLAN ID) Allows the entry of a VLAN ID in the Add dialog box,or displays the VLAN ID of an existing VLAN in the
Modify dialog box.VLANs can be identified by either the VID or the VLAN name.
VLAN Name Allows the entry of a name for the new VLAN in the Add dialog box,or for editing the VLAN name in the
Modify dialog box.
Advertisement Enabling this function will allow the Switch to send out GVRP packets to outside sources,notifying that they
may join the existing VLAN.
Type Displays the type of protocol associated with this VLAN.
Protocol ID The following parameters allow for the creation of protocol-based VLANs.The Switch supports 15 pre-
configured protocol-based VLANs plus one user-defined protocol based VLAN where the administrator may
configure the settings for the appropriate protocol and forwarding of packets (16 total).Selecting a specific
protocol will indicate which protocol will be utilized in determining the VLAN ownership of a tagged packet.
Pre-set protocol-based VLANs on the switch include:
port – Using this parameter will allow the creation of a normal 802.1Q VLAN on the Switch.
ip – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the packet
header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is based on the Ethernet protocol.
rarp – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the packet
header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by the Reverse Address
Resolution (RARP) Pr
otocol.
ipx802dot3 – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the
packet header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by Novell NetWare
802.3 (IPX - Internet Packet Exchange).
ipx802dot2 – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the
packet header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by Novell NetWare
802.2 (IPX - Internet Packet Exchange).
ipxSnap – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the packet
header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by Novell and the Sub
Network Access Protocol (SNAP).
ipxEthernet2 – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the
packet header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by the Ethernet
Protocol.
AppleTalk – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the
packet header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by the AppleTalk
protocol.
decLAT – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the packet
header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by the Digital Equipment
Corporation (DEC) Local Area Transport (LAT) protocol.
decOther – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to f
orward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the
packet header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by the Digital
Equipment Corporation (DEC) Protocol.
sna802dot2 – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the
packet header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by the Systems
Netw
ork
Ar
chitecture(SNA) 802.2 Protocol.
netBios – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to f
orward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the packet
header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by the NetBIOS Protocol.
xns – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the packet
header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by the Xerox Network
Systems (XNS) Protocol.
vines – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the packet
header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by the Banyan Virtual
Integrated Network Service (VINES) Protocol.
ipV6 – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to f
orwar
d packets to this VLAN if the tag in the packet
header is concurrent with this protocol.This packet header information is defined by the Internet Protocol
Version 6 (IPv6) Protocol.
userDefined – Using this parameter will instruct the Switch to forward packets to this VLAN if the tag in the
packet header is concurrent with this protocol defined by the user.This packet header information is defined by
entering the f
