The ports can be configured in one or more VLANs. To set this field, you must set

This field is dependent on the Tagging field value in the VLAN Port Configuration
screen (see the Tagging field description in

“VLAN Port Configuration screen fields”

on page 126

).

For example:

When the Tagging field is set to Untagged Access, you can set the Port
Membership field as an untagged port member (U) or as a non-VLAN port
member (-).
