FIGURE 55 Network - Basic Alias Screen
Select + Add Row to define VLAN Alias settings:
Use the VLAN Alias field to create unique aliases for VLANs that can be used at different
deployments. For example, if a named VLAN is defined as 10 for the central network, and the VLAN
is set at 26 at a remote location, the VLAN can be overridden at the deployment location with an
alias. At the remote deployment location, the network is functional with a VLAN ID of 26 but utilizes
the name defined at the centrally managed network. A new VLAN need not be created specifically
for the remote deployment.
A VLAN alias is used to replace VLANs in the following locations:
• Bridge VLAN
• IP Firewall Rules
• L2TPv3
• Switchport
Name If adding a new VLAN Alias, provide it a distinguishing name up to 32 characters. The alias name
always starts with a dollar sign ($).
VLAN Use the spinner control to set a numeric VLAN from 1 - 4094.
