Ingress and Egress Rates:

This settings determines the port bandwidth control and works only when the port speed is set to Auto.

6.9.2 VLAN Settings (Virtual Local Area Network)

A VLAN is a group of ports which act as a small “virtual” network of their own, independent of the other ports. This means that the broadcast domain is restricted to the computers within a VLAN, and computers connected to different VLANs are unable to communicate with each other. The VLAN Setting page displays the current VLANs on the switch (Figure 17).

Figure 17: VLAN Setting Page

To create a new VLAN group, click the “Add Group” button to open the new VLAN configuration window (Figure 18). Enter a description for the VLAN, and select the ports to include in the VLAN. Click “Apply” button to save the new VLAN.

To modify a VLAN, click on its ID number. In the new window, make the required modifications and click “Apply”.

To delete a VLAN, click “Delete Group” to open a window which allows you to select a VLAN to delete.

6.9.3 Trunk Setting

The Trunk Setting page (Figure 19) allows you to create port trunks. Up to eight Fast Ethernet ports and two Gigabit ports can be trunked resulting in 5.6 Gbps of bandwidth in full duplex mode.
