7.3.1.1 VLAN Interface
Hosting Interface drop-down menu is populated with a list of the physical
interfaces present on the system. Select the physical interface over which you
wish this virtual interface's traffic to flow.
VLAN tag text field should be populated with the required VLAN tag. This
identifies packets sent over this interface as belonging to the specified VLAN.
Description text field can be edited to provide a more useful name for the
interface.
Enable interface check-box can be ticked in order to enable the interface or
cleared in order to disable it. No other configuration settings are changed
when the interface is disabled, allowing use of the interface to be suspended
without deleting the configuration.
Startup enable check-box controls whether the interface is enabled
automatically when the unit boots.
Configuration method drop-down menu offers the following choices:
•
Static - The interface will take its address and routing parameters from
values entered by the operator.
•
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) - The interface will
attempt to obtain its address and routing parameters from a DHCP server
with a matching VLAN tag.
•
Powered off - The interface will not be used and the interface chip is
disabled, reducing the total power consumption by around 200mW.
