VLAN Configuration Page
VLAN is disabled as the default setting for Exalt radios. The Exalt radios still pass VLAN and non-
VLAN traffic across the link, but do not examine the VLAN traffic or act upon it. Enable VLAN using
the Exalt GUI for expanded VLAN support.
Figure 30 VLAN Configuration page
When VLAN is first enabled, the Ethernet interface ports are assigned as
Default VLAN
, until the ports
are configured with specific VLAN IDs. For example, a specific VLAN for management access to the
radio must be manually configured.
If any VLANs are configured in addition to the management VLAN, the radio treats the traffic that is
not in the VLAN filter list in accordance with the selection made in the status setting. The
Block
Untagged
selection only passes the VLAN IDs on the filter list; all other traffic is blocked. The
Pass
Untagged
selection passes all untagged traffic transparently, and only blocks VLAN IDs not on the
filter list. The
Tag Untagged
selection tags all untagged traffic with the selected default VLAN ID
assigned in this table.
Note:
Once a management VLAN is configured or modified and the Update button clicked,
the management connection will likely be lost. The management connection to the radio must
follow the configuration to the assigned VLAN. After configuring and enabling the
management VLAN on the radio, reconfigure your network’s management access to match
the settings on the radio.
