Configuring the Switch

802.1Q VLAN Current Table Information

This screen shows the current port members of each VLAN and whether or not the port supports VLAN tagging. Ports assigned to a large VLAN group that crosses several switches should use VLAN tagging. However, if you just want to create a small port-based VLAN for one or two switches, you can assign ports to the same untagged VLAN (page 2-48). The current configuration is shown in the following figure.
