Specifying Tagging or No Tagging for a Port 
 
Each VLAN maintains a list of ports that do not send tagged frames. When you add a port member to a 
VLAN, it is added to the untagged set by default. This means the frames sent out on this port will be 
untagged. Select the desired unit and then type s to select the port number. Type g to set the port to 
receive tagged frames for any given VLAN. 
 
4.4.4 Configuring VLAN Port Attributes
 
To configure port attributes, type p in the VLAN Management Menu (or l in the VLAN Group Static 
Configuration Menu). This brings you to the VLAN port configuration menu, shown below. Navigate to the 
unit and port that you want to configure by typing a command (u, s, n or p) as shown at the bottom of the 
screen.

Setting the Port VLAN ID 
 
Port VLAN ID (PVID) is used for VLAN classification of incoming untagged frames and has meaning only 
when a port is configured to receive both untagged and tagged frames. It is used to assign untagged frames 
to the VLAN identified by the PVID. 
 
By default, each port on the switch has a PVID of 1 (the default VLAN). The allowed PVID range is 1 to 
4094. For ports that are configured to receive only tagged frames, the PVID is meaningless and the port is 
assigned a PVID of 4095. 
 
For ports that are members of more than one VLAN, received frames are assigned as follows: 
 
• A tagged frame is forwarded to the VLAN matching the VID in the tag field of the frame
• An untagged frame is forwarded to the VLAN matching the PVID
