User-Defined PID Allows you to create your own user-defined VLAN where you specify the Protocol
Identifier (PID) for the VLAN. To set this field, the VLAN State field must be set to
Inactive. Some restrictions apply.
“User-Defined Protocol Identifier Description” on
page 203 .
Default 0x0000
Range Any 16-bit hexadecimal value (for example, 0xABCD)
VLAN State Allows you to activate your newly created VLAN.
The following field values: VLAN Type, Protocol Id (PID), or User-defined PID must
be configured appropriately before this field can be set to active. After you set the
VLAN State field value to Active, you cannot change the VLAN State, VLAN Type,
Protocol Id, or User-defined PID field values, unless you delete the VLAN.
If you delete a VLAN, all configuration parameters that are associated with that
VLAN are also deleted.
Default Inactive
Range Inactive, Active
Port Membership Allows you to assign VLAN port memberships to standalone or stacked unit ports.
The ports can be configured in one or more VLANs. To set this field, you must set
the VLAN State field to Active. Certain restrictions apply for the BayStack
450-1GBIC, 450-SR, 450-1SX, 450-1LR, 450-1LX MDA sand BayStack 410 ports
(see
“Port restrictions” on page 205 ).
This field is dependent on the Tagging field value in the VLAN Port Configuration
screen (see the Tagging field description in
“VLAN Port Configuration screen fields”
on page 206 ).
For example:
• When the Tagging field is set to Untagged Access , you can set the Port
Membership field as an untagged port member (U) or as a non-VLAN port
member (-).
• When the Tagging field is set to Tagged Trunk , you can set the Port Membership
field as a tagged port member (T) or as a non-VLAN port
member (-).
The Port Membership fields are displayed in six-port groups (for example, 1-6, 7-12,
13-18). The number of ports displayed depends on the switch model or type of
optional MDA installed in the Uplink Module slot.
Default U (All ports are assigned as untagged members of VLAN 1.)
Range U, T, and -
