Chapter 11: Setting Port-based and Tagged VLANs
144
4. Enter the following settings as needed:
VLAN ID— Assign a VLAN identifier. The range is 2 to 4094. The
VID 1 is reserved for the Default_VLAN. The VID cannot be the
same as the VID of an existing VLAN on the switch.
If this VLAN is unique in your network, its VID must also be unique.
However, if this VLAN is part of a larger VLAN that spans multiple
switches, the VID value for the VLAN must be the same on each
switch. For example, if you are creating a VLAN called Sales with a
VID of 3 that spans three switches, assign the Sales VLAN on
each switch the VID value of 3.
VLAN Name— Specify the name of a VLAN. The name can be
from 1 to 20 characters in length. The first character must be a
letter; it cannot be a number. The name cannot contain spaces or
special characters, such as asterisks (*) or exclamation points (!).
You cannot assign the name of name of an existing VLAN on the
switch.
VLANs are easier to identify if their names reflect the functions of
their subnetworks or workgroups (for example, Sales or
Accounting). If a VLAN is unique in your network, then its name
must be unique as well. A VLAN that spans multiple switches must
have the same name on each switch.
Member Port— Click a port number to add the port to the VLAN. A
“T” indicates a port is a tagged port. A “U” indicates the port is an
untagged port.
Note
