VLAN Configuration Menu screen
The VLAN Configuration Menu screen (Figure 56) allows you to select the
appropriate screen to configure up to 64 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.
To open the VLAN Configuration Menu:
