Figure 6-47. Port-based VLAN Configuration screen
The fields you can set are:
♦
VLAN ID (VID)
Enter a VLAN ID from 1 to 24. This is the VLAN that will be defined on this screen.
VID 1 is the default VLAN. All ports are designated members of VID 1 when VLANs are enabled. When a
port is assigned to another VLAN, it is removed from VLAN 1. If it is ever removed from the other VLAN,
it will automatically return to being a member of VLAN 1. Thus, all unassigned ports are automatically
members of VLAN 1.
♦
VLAN Name
Description of the VLAN.
♦
Port Assignments
Position the cursor over the dash “–“ representing the appropriate port number and
press <space bar> to select “
V
” for member. Pressing <space bar> again returns the ‘
V
’ back into a ‘–‘. A
dash (-) means the port is not given VLAN membership for the VID entered above. An ‘X’ shows that the
port belongs to a different VLAN.
♦
Clear
Erases the VLAN name and all port assignment settings.
Choose
Browse Port-based VLANs
from the screen above to view the current Port-based VLAN settings.
