Chapter 7: Configuring VLANs on the SSR
– Define a trunk port by double-clicking that port’s module in the Access Ports list.
From the list of access ports that appears, select the port that you want to define as
a trunk port. Then click the Add button.
After you click the Add button, Configuration Expert moves the selected port from the
Access Ports
list to the corresponding module in the Trunk Ports list.
5. Repeat step step 4 until you define all the access and trunk ports you will include in
your VLANs.
Clicking a module rather than double-clicking it in a list box selects all of the module’s
ports in that list box. This is a quick way to select all of module’s ports when you are
defining those ports as all the same type.
6. Click OK.
Configuration Expert adds the access ports and trunk ports to those listed in the Access
Ports and Trunk Ports objects, which are located in the Port Bridging Mode object.
Creating a Protocol-Based VLAN
To create a VLAN that the SSR will use for IP, IPX, or bridged-protocol traffic:
1. Start Configuration Expert if you have not already done so.
Note:
If you start Configuration Expert from the Schematic view choosing the
Configure VLAN
command, Configuration Expert automatically expands
the Active Configuration file’s tree to the VLAN Configuration object. If you
are adding a VLAN to the Active Configuration file, go to
step 3 .
