Protocol-based VLANs

In order for an end station to send packets to different VLANs, it itself
has to be capable of tagging packets it sends with VLAN tags, or it
must be attached to a VLAN-aware bridge that is capable of
classifying and tagging the packets with different VLAN IDs, based on
not only on the default PVID but also other information about the
packet, such as the protocol.

Create a VLAN and add tagged member ports to it.

1. From the main menu, click Administrator -- VLAN

Configuration.

2. Click Add.
