2 Enter a descriptive name for the VLAN. The name must begin with a letter followed by up to 31
characters. See the
ExtremeWare Software User Guide for details on VLAN naming.
3 Select an entry from the pull-down Protocol Filter list. This selection determines what protocol (if
any) is used to determine membership in this VLAN. Select ANY to have the filtering rules match all
unfiltered protocols.
4 If the VLAN is to be tagged, enter a 802.1Q tag value in the Tag field. The tag value can be a
number between 2 and 4095. By entering a tag number, you enable tagging for this VLAN. Enter the
text “untagged” to indicate that the VLAN is to be untagged.
5 To add a port to the VLAN, first select the switch from the Available Switches list. This displays a
list of ports on the switch that are available to be included in the VLAN.
NOTE
The Available Ports list does not include ports configured as slave load sharing ports.
6
Select one or more ports from the
Available Ports
list.
7
Click
Tagged
to add the port(s) as tagged. Click
Untagged
to add the ports as untagged ports.
If this is an untagged VLAN, you are not allowed to add a tagged port.
If you add a port untagged, EPICenter must remove it from any other VLAN that includes the port
as an untagged member. EPICenter will warn you and let you confirm that this is what you want.
8
To remove a port from the VLAN, select the port from the Ports in VLAN list, and then click
Remove
.
9 After you add a device and port to the VLAN, you can use the Connect Device button to determine
whether that port can connect to the other members of the VLAN.
●
Select the device you want to check.
●
Click the
Connect Device
button.
If EPICenter can find a path from the device and port to another member of the VLAN, it opens a
Connection Information window that displays information about the path, as shown in
Figure 159 .
Figure 159: Connection Information window
If additional ports, or devices and ports must be added to create a path, EPICenter lists the ports
needed, and offers to add them to the VLAN.
