The fields you can set are:
Action Select the desired action by toggling between
Add and Remove.
MAC Address The MAC address of the VLAN member
being added or removed.
Please note that the Status field for the MAC address you
have entered may read Not-Apply. Once the switch is
restarted in MAC-based VLAN mode, the MAC-addresses
will be applied, meaning that the VLAN is active.
Current MAC-based VLAN, MAC address members of the
VLAN, MAC Address (in the lower part of the screen), and
Status reflect the current conditions. They are read-only
fields and cannot be changed.
If you are unsure of your knowledge of port-based VLANs
or IEEE 802.1Q tagging, we highly recommend reviewing
the VLAN section of the Switch Management Concepts
chapter in this manual before proceeding.
To configure an IEEE 802.1Q port-based VLAN, you must
do three things:
1. Decide if you want to enable Ingress Filtering and
enable it on the chosen ports. Ingress filtering applied
on a port causes the port to examine all incoming
packets and check whether the port itself is a member
of the VLAN. This is normally used to keep untagged
frames off the switch, although it can have other uses
as well. This setting is configurable for each port in the
Configure Port Ingress Filter screen.
