6.9.2 VLAN Settings (Virtual Local Area Network)
A VLAN is a group of ports which act as a small “virtual” network of their own, independent of the other
ports. This means that the broadcast domain is restricted to the computers within a VLAN, and
computers connected to different VLANs are unable to communicate with each other. The VLAN
Setting page displays the current VLANs on the switch (Figure 19).
Figure 19: VLAN Setting Page
To create a new VLAN group, click the “Add Group” button to open the new VLAN configuration
window (Figure 20). Enter a description for the VLAN, and select the ports to include in the VLAN.
Click “Apply” button to save the new VLAN.
To modify a VLAN, click on its ID number. In the new window, make the required modifications and
click “Apply”.
To delete a VLAN, click “Delete Group” to open a window which allows you to select a VLAN to
delete.

6.9.3 Trunk Setting
The Trunk Setting page (Figure 21) allows you to create port trunks. Up to twelve ports can be part of
the trunk, resulting in 24 Gbps of bandwidth in full duplex mode.
Note: Trunking will only work if the ports are connected to similarly trunked ports on
another Switch. There are three groups of ports that can be trunked together.
