WFS709TP ProSafe Smart Wireless Switch Software Administration Manual

Configure a VLAN for Network Connection

Follow the instructions in this section only if you need to configure a trunk port between the WFS709TP and another Layer 2 switch (as in “Deployment Scenario #3” on page 2-4).

This section shows how to use the browser interface for the following configurations:

•Create a VLAN on the WFS709TP and assign it an IP address.

•Assign to the VLAN the port or ports that you will use to connect the WFS709TP to the network. (For example, the uplink ports that you connect to a router are usually Gigabit ports.)

•Configure the ports as trunk ports.

•Configure a default gateway for the WFS709TP.

Note: In the browser interface configuration pages, clicking the Apply button saves configuration changes so they are retained after the WFS709TP is rebooted.

Create the VLAN

The following configurations create VLAN 5 and assign it the IP address 10.3.22.20/24.

1.Navigate to the Configuration > Basic > Network >VLAN page.

2.Click Add to create a new VLAN.

3.On the Add New VLAN screen (Figure 2-7), enter 5 for the VLAN ID and click Apply.
