You can create up to 8 VLANs, and you can also restrict any VLAN, and the computers on it, from admin-
istering the Gateway.
❑ VLAN Name – A descriptive name for the VLAN.
❑ Type – LAN or WAN Port(s) can be enabled on the VLAN. You can choose a type designation as fol-
lows:
By-Port: indicating that the VLAN is port-based. When this setting is enabled on a Gateway with a
LAN Ethernet Managed Switch, the switch will be segmented into the number of physical por ts. Each
por t can then independently join VLANs, other wise the LAN ethernet por t can join VLANs as a single
por t. The por ts set up on VLANs for this switch will inser t a default VLAN identifier (VID) into any non-
802.1q-tagged Ethernet packet received, and they will strip out any 802.1q header within a packet
transmitted through the por t with a VID matching the VLAN's VID. The default VID for the VLAN is
selected by the Gateway.
Global: indicating that the ports joining this VLAN are part of a global 802.1q Ethernet VLAN. This
VLAN includes por ts on this Gateway and may include por ts within other devices throughout the net-
work. The VID in this case may define the behavior of traffic between all devices on the network hav-
ing por ts that are members of this VLAN segment.
❑ VLAN ID – If you select Global as the VLAN Type, the VLAN ID field appears for you to enter a VID.
This must be a unique identifying number between 1 and 4094.
❑ Admin Restricted – If you want to prevent administrative access to the Gateway from this VLAN,
check the checkbox.
❑ 802.1p Priority Bit: If you set this from the pull-down menu to a value greater than 0, all packets of
this VLAN with unmarked priority bits (pbits) will be re-marked to this priority.
Click the Submit button.
The VLAN Port Configuration screen appears.
❑ Port interfaces available for this VLAN are listed in the left hand column.
