36 CHAPTER 4: CONFIGURING THE SWITCH
VLAN
Click Device, then VLAN on the menu. A screen
appears with seven tabs that include:
■ Setup
■ Modify VLAN
■ Modify Port
■ Rename
■ Remove
■ Port Detail
■ VLAN Detail
Setup
Use the Setup screen to create VLANs on the Switch.
To propagate information about VLAN groups used
on this Switch to external devices, you must specify a
VLAN ID for each VLAN.
Figure 25 Setup Screen
Available option on the Setup screen include:
■ VLAN ID – ID of configured VLAN (1-4094, no
leading zeroes)
For examples on setting up VLANs, refer to “
Sample
VLAN Configurations”.
CAUTION: At least one port must always be an
untagged member of VLAN 1 (the management
VLAN). If you choose to connect all ports to VLANs
other than VLAN 1, you will no longer be able to
access the Web interface. If this happens, you will
need to reset the Switch to factory settings.
By default, all ports belong to VLAN 1 as an untagged
member. However, they can belong to multiple VLANs
as a tagged member. Also, newly created VLANs will
initially have no ports associated with them.
Modify VLAN
Use the Modify VLAN screen to change the VLAN to
which a port belongs, and configure the port to
communicate with all other VLANs, or a selected
VLAN.
