Managing the Module 2-65
The MultiSwitch 700 Device View
Figure 2-26. The VLAN Config Window
The Configured VLANS list box and fields allow you to view, create, modify,
delete, enable, and disable 802.1Q port-based VLANs. The list box displays the
following information about your defined VLANs:
VLAN ID
The VLAN ID is used to identify data frames that originate from, and are
intended for, the ports assigned to the VLAN. Up to 64 VLANs may be created,
with VLAN IDs ranging from 2-4094. The VLAN ID is combined with the port’s
identification (e.g., module X port X) to form the Port VLAN ID (PVID). VLAN ID
1
is reserved for the Default VLAN.
VLAN Name
An optional 32-character VLAN name may be assigned to a created VLAN. The
Default VLAN is assigned the name DEFAULT VLAN, which cannot be changed
or deleted.
Admin Status
This field indicates whether the VLAN is enabled or disabled. Unless Enable is
selected when port-based VLANs are initially defined, they are disabled by
default. The Default VLAN cannot be disabled.
