Figure 3-3 Create Virtual LANs
After you have assigned a VLAN ID, the VLAN then shows on the
main screen with the status Not Configured. You then highlight the
VLAN, and select the Configure IP Address pulldown action. This
displays the Add an IP Address for the VLAN screen (Figure 3-4).
After you have configured an IP address for the VLAN, its status on
the main screen will show as Enabled.
Assign VLAN IDs to each VLAN. Ensure that the assignments are
consistent across endstations and switches; otherwise, stations will
not communicate with each other.
NOTE On a switch or end-station, all the frames for a specific VLAN must
be either tagged or untagged. All devices in a VLAN’s data path must
be VLAN-aware (one that understands VLAN membership and
formats).
Once a VLAN has been configured, you can modify its properties
even if it is in the Enabled state.
