Protocol to Group
This page allows you to map a Group Name (already configured or to be configured
in the future) to a VLAN for the switch.
The displayed settings are:
Delete
To delete a Group Name to VLAN mapping, check this box. The entry will be deleted from
the switch during the next Save.
Group Name
A valid Group Name is a string, at the most 16 characters long, which consists of a
combination of alphabets (a-z or A-Z) and integers(0-9) with no special characters allowed.
You may either use a Group that already includes one or more protocols (see Protocol to
Group mappings), or create a Group to VLAN ID mapping that will become active the
moment you add one or more protocols inside that Group. Furthermore, the Group to VLAN
ID mapping is not unique, as long as the port lists of these mappings are mutually exclusive
(e.g. Group1 can be mapped to VID 1 on port#1 and to VID 2 on port#2).
VLAN ID
Indicates the VLAN ID to which the Group Name will be mapped. A valid VLAN ID ranges
from 1 to 4095.
Port Members
A row of check boxes for each port is displayed for each Group Name to VLAN ID mapping.
To include a port in the mapping, check the box. To remove or exclude the port from the
mapping, make sure the box is unchecked. By default, no ports are members, and all boxes are
unchecked.
Adding a new Group to VLAN mapping entry
Click
to add a new entry in the mapping table. An empty row is added to the
table and the Group Name, VLAN ID and port members can be configured as needed. Legal
values for a VLAN ID are
1
through
4095
.
The
button can be used to undo the addition of new entry. The maximum possible
Group to VLAN mappings are limited to 256.
