Creating 3Com Mapping Tables

The Default 3Com Mapping Table maps 3Com VLAN 1 to 16 to the Lucent Default VLAN and 3Com VLANs 2 through 16 to the Lucent Discard VLAN. In a network with multiple 3Com devices, it’s possible that some parts of a network will use different VLAN mappings for incoming 3Com tagged packets. The switch allows you to create additional 3Com mapping tables to use in situations where this occurs.

Note: 3Com trunks do not work across hunt groups.

To create additional mapping tables:

1.In the Switching Parameters section of the Web Agent window, click 3Com Mapping Table. The 3Com Mapping Table dialog box opens.

2.Click CREATE. The Create 3Com Map Table dialog box opens.

3.In the Name field, enter a name for this entry.

4.Click APPLY save your changes, or CANCEL to restore previous settings.

5.In the Switching Parameters section of the Web Agent window, click 3Com Mapping Table. The 3Com Mapping Table dialog box opens.
