Create a basic 802.1Q VLAN and assign ports as members
A basic 802.1Q VLAN configuration lets you create VLANs and assign ports on the switch
to a VLAN. A port that functions in access mode can be member of a single VLAN only.
The number of VLANs is limited to the number of ports on the switch. You can assign
a VLAN ID number in the range of 1–4093.
To create a basic 802.1Q VLAN and assign ports as members:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
switch, or connected directly to the switch through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the device management password.
The password is the one that you specified the first time that you logged in. The
password is case-sensitive.
