Chapter 7: Virtual LANs

Creating a VLAN

This section contains the procedure for creating a new port-based or tagged VLAN. This procedure assigns the VLAN a name, a VID number, and the untagged and tagged member ports.

After you have performed this procedure, you must configure the untagged ports of the VLAN by adjusting their PVID values to match the virtual LAN’s VID number. The PVID value of a port must match its virtual LAN’s VID in order for a port to be considered an untagged member of the VLAN. This procedure is found in “Configuring the PVID of Untagged Ports” on page 87.

To create a VLAN, perform the following procedure:

1.From the Main Menu, type A to select Advanced Switch Configuration.

The Advanced Switch Configuration Menu is shown in Figure 14 on page 59.

2.From the Advanced Switch Configuration Menu, type V to select VLAN Management.

The VLAN Management Menu is shown in Figure 20.
