■ To change the maximum number of VLANs, type the new number (1 - 30
allowed; default 8).
■ To designate a different VLAN as the primary VLAN, select the Primary
VLAN field and use the space bar to select from the existing options.
■ To enable or disable dynamic VLANs, select the GVRP Enabled field and
use the Space bar to toggle between options. (For GVRP information, see
“GVRP” on page 14-30.)
N o t e For optimal switch memory utilization, set the number of VLANs at the
number you will likely be using or a few more. If you need more VLANs later,
you can increase this number, but a switch reboot will be required at that time.
3. Press [Enter] and then [S] to save the VLAN support configuration and return
to the VLAN Menu screen.
If you changed the value for Maximum VLANs to support, you will see an
asterisk next to the VLAN Support option (see below).

– If you did not change the VLAN Support option, a reboot is not
necessary.
4. Press [0] to return to the Main Menu.
