Configuring Port-based VLAN Configuration Page

Selection Criteria

VLAN ID and Name - You can use this screen to reconfigure an existing VLAN, or to create a new one.
Use this pull down menu to select one of the existing VLANs, or select 'Create' to add a new one.

Configurable Data

VLAN ID - Specify the VLAN Identifier for the new VLAN. (You can only enter data in this field when you
are creating a new VLAN.) The range of the VLAN ID is (1 to 3965).

VLAN Name - Use this optional field to specify a name for the VLAN. It can be up to 32 alphanumeric
characters, including blanks. The default is blank. VLAN ID 1 always has a name of 'Default'.

VLAN Type - This field identifies the type of the VLAN you are configuring. You cannot change the type
of the default VLAN (VLAN ID = 1): it is always type 'Default'. When you create a VLAN, using this screen,
its type will always be 'Static'. A VLAN that is created by GVRP registration initially has a type of
'Dynamic'. You may use this pull down menu to change its type to 'Static'.

Participation - Use this field to specify whether a port will participate in this VLAN. The factory default is
'Autodetect'. The possible values are:

z

Include - This port is always a member of this VLAN. This is equivalent to registration fixed in
the IEEE 802.1Q standard.

forbidden in the IEEE 802.1Q standard.
