Managing the Module 2-95
The Device View
Status
Displays the current status of the selected VLAN: Enabled (active), Disabled (not active),
or Other (created but turned off or in the process of being created).
The Port Egress Information table lists the ports whose egress lists contain the selected
VLAN. You can use this list to change how frames belonging to the selected VLAN will
be forwarded out a port.
Port
Displays the number that identifies the port.
Tagging
Displays whether the port is implementing the 802.1Q VLAN functionality of tagging
frames and GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol).
Current
Displays the current egress state for the port. The egress state specifies how frames
belonging to the selected VLAN are forwarded out the port: No Egress (frames will not be
transmitted), Tagged (frames will be transmitted as tagged), or Untagged (frames will be
transmitted as untagged).
Static
Displays the desired egress state for the port: No Egress (frames will not be transmitted),
Tagged (frames will be transmitted as tagged), or Untagged (frames will be transmitted as
untagged). Right-mouse click on the port to select the desired egress state from the menu.
Configuring Egress State
To configure the egress state (how frames will be transmitted) for the ports on the module:
1. In the Selected VLAN table at the top of the VLAN Egress Port Configuration
window, click to select a VLAN. The ports that contain this VLAN in their
egress lists are displayed in the lower portion of the window.
2. In the Port Egress Information list, right-click the desired port, and select the
egress state: No Egress (frames will not be transmitted), Tagged (frames will
be transmitted as tagged), or Untagged (frames will be transmitted as
untagged). To change the egress state for all the ports listed, right-click a port
and select All No Egress, All Tagged, or All Untagged.
3. Repeat for another VLAN, if desired.
4. Click Apply to set the change(s).
NOTE
In order to properly configure the Egress state for backplane ports, the Auto VLAN
Backplane Configuration option should be set to disabled. This option is available via
local management. If the option is set to enabled, the backplane ports cannot be set to No
Egress via Element Manager.
