4. In the VLAN Name field, enter a name for the new VLAN (for example,

Marketing). Press .

After entering the name for the new VLAN, the VLAN ID number
should automatically increment to the next available number. For
example, if this is the first VLAN that you are adding to the switch, the
VID number increments to 2.

5. If desired, change the VLAN ID number by entering a number a

number in the ID field. (If the VLAN ID number failed to increment to
the next available VID after you entered the VLAN name, you must
enter the ID number manually.)

If IGMP snooping is disabled on the switch, the valid VID range is from
2 to 4096. If IGMP snooping is enabled on the switch, the valid VID
range is from 2 to 2047.

Note
Allied Telesyn highly recommends that you use the VLAN ID
(default) supplied by the system. Although you can change VLAN
IDs to suit your specific needs, changing them requires a more
advanced understanding of VLAN tagging.

6. In the All Ports on VLAN field, specify the ports (both tagged and

untagged) on the switch that are to be members of this new VLAN.
Press .

You can specify the ports individually or in a range or both, as shown
below. By entering the word “All” in this field, all ports on the switch
will be included in the new VLAN.

Ports on expansion modules, if installed, are included by default in
the Ports on VLAN field. If desired, these ports can be removed from
the field so that they will not be a part of the VLAN.

7. In the Tagged Ports on VLAN field, specify which ports, if any, should

function as tagged ports. (A tagged port can be a member of more
than one virtual LAN in a switch.)
