■ Setting the VLAN Binding attribute in the Switch Port
Configuration dialog box to Bind to All. This causes the port
to be bound to all VLANs known to the switch (now and in
the future). This is not recommended when the switches on
both ends of the link function as a router. This setting should
be used on links that connect two Layer 2 switches. Refer to
the Avaya P550R, P580, P880, and P882 Multiservice Switch User
Guide, Version 5.3.1 for more details
■ Setting the VLAN Binding attribute in the Switch Port
Configuration dialog box to Bind to Received. This causes
the port to be bound to all VLANs identified by the VLAN tag
in IEEE 802.1Q and Multi-Layer tagged frames received on
this port. Consequently, ports are bound to those VLANs that
actually have members that are reachable through the port.
■ Manually creating a VLAN Switch Port via the Web Agent or
CLI.
