11.1 VLAN
Membership
Parameter
Description
To assign a specific VLAN for management purpose. The management VLAN is used
to establish an IP connection to the switch from a workstation connected to a port
in the VLAN. This connection supports a VSM, SNMP, and Telnet session. By default,
the active management VLAN is VLAN 1. However, you can designate any VLAN as
the management VLAN using the Management VLAN window. Only one
management VLAN can be active at a time.
When you specify a new management VLAN, your HTTP connection to the old
management VLAN is lost. For this reason, you should have a connection between
your management station and a port in the new management VLAN, or connect to
the new management VLAN through a multi
-
VLAN route.
The VLAN membership configuration for the selected stack switch and unit switch
can be monitored and modified here. Up to 4096 VLANs are supported. The user is
allowed to
add and delete VLANs, and port members of each VLAN.
Web Interface
To configure VLAN membership configuration in the web interface:
1.
Click VLAN membership Configuration.
2.
Specify Management VLAN ID from 0 to 4094.
3.
Click “Apply”.
