Setting a Switch’s VLAN Mode

This section contains the procedure for setting a switch’s VLAN mode.
You can configure a switch to support port-based and tagged VLANs or
to operate in the Basic VLAN mode. Port-based and tagged VLANs and
the Basic VLAN mode are all described in earlier sections in this chapter.

To configure a switch’s VLAN mode, perform the following procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Config Menu.

2. Type 2 to select Switch Mode.

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter switch mode (T-Tagged, B-Basic):

3. Type T in order to create your own port-based and tagged VLANs, or

B to configure the switch for the Basic VLAN Mode. The default is
Tagged mode. Press Return.

4. Type S to select Save Configuration Changes.

5. Reset the switch using the Reset Switch option in the Administration

Menu or the reset button on the back of the unit.
