User-defined PID
Allows you to create your own user-defined protocol-based VLAN where you specify
the Protocol Identifier (PID) for the VLAN. To set this field, the VLAN State field must
be set to Inactive (some restrictions apply, see
User-Defined Protocol Identifier
(PID) Description” on page 3-27).
Default 0x0000
Range Any 4-bit hexadecimal value (for example, 0xABCD)
VLAN State
Allows you to activate your newly created VLAN.
The following associated field values: VLAN Type, Protocol Id (PID), and
User-defined PID must be configured appropriately before this field can be set to
Active.
After you set the VLAN State field value to Active, you cannot change the VLAN
Type, Protocol Id, or User-defined PID field values, unless you delete the VLAN.
If you delete a VLAN, all configuration parameters that are associated with that
VLAN are deleted also.
Default Inactive
Range Inactive, Active
Port Membership
Allows you to assign VLAN port memberships to
standalone
or
stacked unit
ports.
The ports can be configured in one or more VLANs. To set this field, you must Set
the VLAN State field value to Active. Certain restrictions apply for gigabit ports and
when using the BayStack 410-24T switch ports as participants of Protocol-based
VLANs (see
Gigabit Ports and BayStack 410-24T Switch Ports Restriction” on
page 3-28
).
This field is dependent on the Tagging field value in the VLAN Port Configuration
screen (see the Tagging field description in Table 3-11 on page 3-29).
For example:
When the Tagging
field is set to
Untagged Access
, you can set the Port
Membership field as an untagged port member (U) or as a non-VLAN port
member (-).
When the Tagging
field is set to
Tagged Trunk
, you can set the Port Membership
field as a tagged port member (T) or as a non-VLAN port
member (-).
The Port Membership fields are displayed in six-port groups (for example, 1-6, 7-12,
13-18). The number of ports displayed depends on the switch model or type of
optional MDA installed in the Uplink Module slot.
Default U (All ports are assigned as untagged members of VLAN 1.)
Range U, T, and -
