Using the Console Interface

Figure 6-32. Add/Remove MAC-based Broadcast Domain Members screen

The fields you can set are:

Action Select the desired action by toggling between Add and Remove.

MAC Address The MAC address of the broadcast domain member being added or removed.

Please note that the Status field for the MAC address you have entered may read Not-Apply. Once the Switch

is restarted in MAC-based broadcast domain mode, the MAC-addresses will be applied, meaning that the
broadcast domain is active.

Current Broadcast Domain, Number of members, MAC Address (in the lower part of the screen), and
Status reflect the current conditions. They are read-only fields and cannot be changed.

Configure IEEE 802.1Q VLANs

To configure an IEEE 802.1Q port-based VLAN, you must do three things:

1. Decide if you want to enable Ingress Filtering and enable it on the chosen ports. Ingress filtering applied

on a port causes the port to examine all incoming packets and check whether the port itself is a member of
the VLAN. This is normally used to keep untagged frames off the Switch, although it can have other uses
as well. This setting is configurable for each port in the Ingress Filtering Check screen.
