Map a Port to Multi- ple VLAN Groups

VLAN Port Attribute Configuration

Enter Port VID (1 - 4095) >

Enter the VID of the VLAN to which this port is associated and press return. If no value is given or if the given value is an invalid VLAN ID, port tagging is not disabled and the following message is displayed:

Tagging NOT Disabled, press any key to continue

ΔNote: Port VID and Tagging information are stored in a Non-Volatile Data Base, so you do not have to configure them each time the system starts up.

This option is mainly available for making a port belong to multiple VLAN Groups. But this option can also be used instead of the "Set Port VID" option to make a port belong to a VLAN Group.When used for port-to-multi-VLAN Group mapping, this option gives a warning message if port tagging is disabled.

To make a port belong to one or more VLAN Groups, press m in VLAN Port Attribute Configuration Menu.The following message appears:

Enter VLAN Group #s separated by spaces (0 means ALL) >

If you want to make a port belong to only one VLAN Group, enter the corresponding VLAN Group number next to the prompt and press return.The port is now made a member of the desired VLAN Group and the screen shows the changed configuration.

If you want to make a port belong to more than one VLAN Group, enter the corresponding VLAN Group numbers, separated by spaces, and press return. If port tagging is enabled, then the port is made a member of the desired VLAN Groups and the changes are shown on the screen. If the value given is 0, then the port is made a member of all VLAN Groups in the system.
