The information on the top of the screen is described as follows:

Choose from three settings for this mode:

or
NONE
. After being restarted, the Switch will implement the setting you have chosen.
♦
SNMP Vlan
If the
IEEE
802.1Q VLANs
mode is selected, you must also enter a SNMP VLAN ID number
in this field. This is a special VLAN that you designate for SNMP management packets. Make sure the
Switch port that the management station is connected to has this PVID number and is a static member of
this VLAN.
Configure MAC-Based Broadcast Domains
To create MAC-based broadcast domains
,
simply create the broadcast domain itself in the
Add/Remove
MAC-based Broadcast Domains
screen, and then enter MAC addresses to the broadcast domain in the
Add/Remove MAC-based Broadcast Domain Members
screen. Afterwards, restart the Switch and the
broadcast domain will be implemented.
