As seen above, the VLAN name “ DEFAULT” and VID “ 1” is standard setting for general Tag VLAN , and all ports are added as untagged ports; The other VLAN “ 4091”, also called a “Stacking Tag VLAN”, is a unique setting for this type of stacking. All Giga ports are set to tag members to form a VLAN connection channel.

WARNING: Stacking Tag VLAN is highly restricted. Incorrect operation can ruin the connection of stacking switches. Correct use of the Stacking Tag VLAN will be discussed in the next section.

Add a VLAN

To Add a new VLAN, press “ Add” in the VLAN Panel. Two prompts will ask the user to input VLAN name and VLAN ID.

After input, users can choose the VLAN member in the Stacking Manager panel by clicking the designated port. Colour cycling from blue, yellow to black means that the port is set to untagged port, tagged port or no member. When finished, press “ Apply” to submit the changes.

It is always wise to remember that the Giga ports of each member switch are set to tagged port and keep at least one member port in the master switch.
