VLAN Scan

The VLAN Scan test is used to detect and list all the VLANs present in the
connected IP network. It supports detection of nested VLANs up to three
layers. The results include the VLAN ID, priority, and frame count.

Note: If VLAN Tagging under Interface tab is enabled, all the tests except VLAN

Scan test will be activated. If it is disabled, only VLAN Scan test will be
activated.

Note: The VLAN Scan test uses only the Interface parameters to run the test.

To select, configure, and start a VLAN Scan test:
1.
From the Main Menu, press VLAN Scan.

2. From the Interface tab, configure the test interface parameters. Refer

to Interface on page 20. Ensure that the link is up in the status bar
before proceeding to the next step.

Note: To run the VLAN Scan test, the VLAN Tagging check box must be cleared.

3. Press Start to start the test.

4. For results, refer to Result Summary (VLAN Scan) on page 38.

5. If required, tap the Report button to generate the report file of the

results and statistics. Refer to Report on page 45 for more information.
