A forbidden port cannot be an egress port.
The following table describes the labels in this screen for each VLAN port type.
15.2.2 Removing a VLAN
In the VLAN Configuration screen, select a VLAN and click Delete.
15.3 Introduction to Port-based VLANs
Port-based VLANs are VLANs where the packet forwarding decision is based on the
destination MAC address and its associated port.
Port-based VLANs require allowed outgoing ports to be defined for each port. Therefore, if
you wish to allow two subscriber ports to talk to each other, for example, between conference
rooms in a hotel, you must define the egress (an egress port is an outgoing port, that is, a port
through which a data packet leaves) for both ports.
VLAN Name Enter a descriptive name for identification purposes.
Static VLAN Click on a port in a list to add the selected port to the port list. If a port is not on
any of the three port lists, then it is a normal tagged port. Refer to the following
table for the VLAN port type descriptions.
Egress Ports Select the port(s) to belong to this VLAN.
Forbidden Ports This is a port that is blocked from joining a VLAN group. No frames are
transmitted through this port.
Untag Port This is a port that does not tag all outgoing frames transmitted.
VLAN Status

descriptions.
