Menu: Configuring VLAN Parameters
In the factory default state, VLAN support is enabled. Also, all ports on the
switch belong to the default VLAN (DEFAULT_VLAN) and are in the same
broadcast/multicast domain. (The default VLAN is also the default primary
VLAN—see “Which VLAN Is Primary?” on page 9-50.) You can configure up to
29 additional static VLANs by adding new VLAN names, and then assigning
one or more ports to each VLAN. (The switch accepts a maximum of 30 VLANs,
including the default VLAN and any dynamic VLANs the switch creates if you
enable GVRP—page 9-73.) Note that each port can be assigned to multiple
VLANs by using VLAN tagging. (See “VLAN Tagging Information” on page
9-66.)
