The ports are further set to be either a Tagged or an Untagged
port.
To edit the 802.1Q VLAN membership of a port
:
Highlight the first field of
Membership (E/F/-): [ ][ ][ ]
. Each
port’s 802.1Q VLAN membership can be set individually by
highlighting the port’s entry using the arrow keys, and then
toggling between E, F, or – using the space bar.
E
- (Egress Member) specifies the port as being a static
member of the VLAN. Egress Member Ports are ports
that will be transmitting traffic for the VLAN. These
ports can be either tagged or untagged.
F
- (Forbidden Non-Member) specifies the port as not
being a member of the VLAN and that the port is
forbidden from becoming a member of the VLAN
dynamically.
-
(Non-Member) specifies the port as not being a member
of the VLAN, but the port can become a member of the
VLAN dynamically.
To edit a port’s Tagged or Untagged status:
Highlight the first field of
Tagging (U/T):[ ][ ][ ]
field. Each
port’s state can be set by highlighting the port’s entry using the
arrow keys and then toggling between
U
or
T
using the space bar.
U
- specifies the port as an Untagged member of the
VLAN. When an untagged packet is transmitted by the
port, the packet header remains unchanged. When a
tagged packet exits the port, the tag is stripped and the
packet is changed to an untagged packet.
