Kingston Technology KNS2450/R, KNS3250/R, KNS1650/R manual Vlan Group

20 Kingston Switch Configuration Utility

Disable: This option is selected by default. Packets received with an unknown unicast destination address (DA) will be forwarded to all ports (except the receiving port) within the same VLAN groups that the received port (trunk) belongs to.

Flood control is available only when at least one VLAN group is assigned. And the out-link port must be assigned when ood control is enabled for proper operation.

When ood control is enabled, each VLAN group must choose a member as its out-link. If some VLAN groups have overlapped members, one of these members should be chosen as the out-link. If a port (or trunk) belongs to more than one VLAN group, packets that it receives with an unknown destination address (DA) will only be forwarded to one of the out-links of those VLAN groups that it belongs to.

VLAN Group

The list box shows all dened VLAN groups of the system, and each row is a group. Any individual port or trunk can be a member of a VLAN group, and each group comprises at least two members. One of the members is to be chosen as its out-link. If ood control is disabled, the Out-link column will not appear.

To remove the current highlighted group, press the Delete button. Press the Add button to add a new group. To modify settings, select the Modify button or double click the current highlighted group to modify its content. While adding or modifying a VLAN group, the dialog Modify the VLAN Group (or Add a New VLAN Group) as below will popup for user to specify its content.
