Note
A VLAN must be assigned a name.
6. Type 2 to select VLAN ID (VID.
The following prompt is displayed:
Enter new value -> [2 to 4094] ->
7. Type a VID value for the new VLAN. The range for the VID value is 1 to
4094.
The AT-S63 Management Software uses the next available VID
number on the switch as the default value. It is important to note that
the switch is only aware of the VIDs of the VLANs that exist on the
device, and not those that might already be in use in the network. For
example, if you add a new AT-9400 Switch to a network that already
contains VLANs that use VIDs 2 through 24, the AT-S63 Management
Software still uses VID 2 as the default value when you create the first
VLAN on the new switch, even though that VID number is already
being used by another VLAN on the network. To prevent inadvertently
using the same VID for two different VLANs, you should keep a list of
all your network VLANs and their VID values.
Note
A VLAN must have a VID.
8. If the VLAN will contain tagged ports, type 4 to select Tagged Ports
and specify the ports. You can specify the ports individually (e.g.,

not contain any tagged ports, leave this field empty.
9. Type 5 to select Untagged Ports and specify the ports on the switch to
function as untagged ports in the VLAN. You can specify the ports
individually (e.g., 2,3,5), as a range (e.g., 7-9), or both (e.g., 2,5,7-9). If
this VLAN will not contain any untagged ports, leave this field empty.
