In the VLAN Configure menu select the type of VLAN you want to configure: No VLAN (default), Port Based, 802.1Q, or 802.1Q with GVRP. Save the configuration.
There are 4 different options for VLANs to choose from using the space bar: Disabled, Port Based, 802.1Q and 802.1Q with GVRP.
To configure a new VLAN, select Edit and then use the tab key to select items you want to configure. The space bar allows you to select the different options.
After adding a VLAN group, the configuration option Edit a VLAN Group will allow you to change the membership by adding or deleting ports.
Port Based VLANs
These VLANs only apply to this switch. The VLANs can be overlapping, meaning that any port can belong to more than one VLAN. One configuration that is common for port based VLANs is to have all the ports on the switch on separate VLANs except for the port that has the server connected. The port connected to the server belongs to all the VLANs. This enables security between ports but allows all ports access to the server. Up to 256 different port based VLANs may be configured.
IEEE802.1Q VLANs
If IEEE802.1Q VLANs is selected, all the ports will belong to the default VLAN 1.
