Deleting ports

You can delete ports from the security system in a variety of ways:

In the Ports List View, Port List page (

Figure 54

), click on the checkmark of a

selected port to delete that port from the specified port list.

In the Ports List View, Learn by Ports page (

Figure 55

), click on the

checkmark of a selected port to remove that port from those that learn MAC
addresses.

In the Port Configuration page (

Figure 58

), click Disabled to remove that port

from the MAC address-based security system; it will disable all MAC
address-based security on that port.

Creating and managing virtual LANs (VLANs)

A VLAN is a collection of switch ports that make up a single broadcast domain.
You can configure a VLAN for a single switch, or for multiple switches. When
you create a VLAN, you can control traffic flow and ease the administration of
moves, adds, and changes on the network, by eliminating the need to change
physical cabling. Using the Web-based management interface, you can configure
port-based VLANs.
