Local Management
Configure VLAN Operation Mode
Description
Use this screen to activate or change the type of VLAN operating on the
switch. If there are no VLANs active on the switch, this is the first screen
displayed when you select Configure VLAN from the Main Menu. By
default, VLANs are not active on the Intel
®
NetStructure 470F and 470T

However, you can have multiple VLANs of the same type.

IEEE 802.1Q (tag-based), and protocol-based.
