56.1 VLAN Overview
This chapter shows you how to configure 802.1Q tagged and port-based VLANs.
The type of screen you see here depends on the
VLAN Type
you selected in the
SYSTEM
>
Switch Setup
screen which is only available in standalone mode. The Switch does not support port-based VLANs in
Stacking mode.
56.1.1 What You Can Do
• Use the
VLAN Status
) to view and search all static VLAN groups.
• Use the
VLAN Status Details
screen (
) to view detailed port settings and
status of the static VLAN group.
• Use the
Static VLAN
Setup
screen (
) to configure a static VLAN for the Switch.
• Use the
VLAN Port Setup
screen (
) to configure the static VLAN (IEEE 802.1Q)
settings on a port.
• Use the
GVRP
) to enable/disable GVRP on each port.
• Use the
Subnet Based VLAN Setup
screen (
) to set up VLANs that allow you to
group traffic into logical VLANs based on the source IP subnet you specify.
• Use the
Protocol Based VLAN Setup
screen (
) to set up VLANs that allow you
to group traffic into logical VLANs based on the protocol you specify.
• Use the
Voice VLAN
Setup
screen (
) to set up VLANs that allow you to group
voice traffic with defined priority and enable the Switch port to carry the voice traffic separately from
data traffic to ensure the sound quality does NOT deteriorate.
• Use the
MAC Based VLAN Setup
screen (
) to set up VLANs that allow you to
group untagged packets into logical VLANs based on the source MAC address of the packet. This
eliminates the need to reconfigure the Switch when you change ports. The Switch will forward the
packets based on the source MAC address you set up previously.
• Use the
Vendor ID Based VLAN Setup
screen (
) to set up VLANs that allow
you to group untagged packets into logical VLANs based on the source MAC address of the packet.
You can specify a mask for the MAC address to create a MAC address filter and enter a weight to set
the VLAN rule’s priority.
