Description

Port-based VLANs are the simplest type of VLAN. With a port-based VLAN you can create multiple VLANs, each with its own broadcast domain and member ports.

For example, if port 3 is in VLAN_1 and port 5 is in VLAN_2 the two ports cannot communicate with each other even though they are part of the same switch. A port can only be a member of a single port-based VLAN. Any port that is not a member of a user-defined VLAN is a member of the

DEFAULT_VLAN.

VLAN operation mode: Changes the type of VLAN operating on the switch, or disables VLANs entirely.

Add a port-based VLAN: Creates a port-based VLAN and adds ports to the VLAN.

Edit/delete a port-based VLAN: Selects a VLAN to change port membership in the VLAN, or removes a VLAN from the switch.
