Motorola 6161252-00-01, Enterprise Series Routers manual Adding Port interfaces

3-20 Administrator’s Handbook

Adding Port interfaces

Note: You must first ADD the VLAN before associating the Inter-VLAN-Routing Groups or the Port Interfaces. Once you have added the VLAN, you access the Inter-VLAN-Routing screen and the Add Port Interface screen by selecting Display/Change VLAN from the VLAN Configuration screen.

Once you have created a VLAN entry you must associate it with a port interface. This interface may be either a physical port, such as USB or Ethernet, or a Network ID (SSID) of a wireless LAN. If you have a Motorola Netopia® Router model that offers Motorola’s VGx technology, you can also associate a VLAN with each of the physical Ethernet managed switch ports.

When setting up a VLAN, typically you will add one or more physical ports, such as an Ethernet port or a wireless SSID.

Note: You can associate two VLANs, one of which is 802.1x authenticated and the other is not, with the same port. This allows you to have authenticated access for PCs on the wired-or wireless LAN to non-authenticated devices such as print servers.

Return to the VLAN Configuration screen, select Display/Change VLAN, and from the pop-up menu, select the VLAN ID to be modified.
