VLAN Configuration Menu
The VLAN Configuration Menu screen (Figure 3-8) allows you to select the
appropriate screen to configure up to 64 port-based VLANs. When you create
VLANs, you can assign various ports (and therefore the devices attached to these
ports) to different broadcast domains. Creating VLANs increases network
flexibility by allowing you to reassign devices to accommodate network moves,
additions, and changes, eliminating the need to change physical cabling.
See “I
EEE 802.1Q VLAN Workgroups” on page 1-32 for detailed information
about configuring VLANs.
Choose VLAN Configuration (or press v) from the Switch Configuration Menu
screen to open the VLAN Configuration Menu.
