Gigabit Ports and BayStack 410-24T Switch Ports Restriction

Gigabit ports and the BayStack 410-24T switch ports do not have the ability to assign incoming untagged frames to a protocol-based VLAN.

To allow gigabit ports and BayStack 410-24T switch ports to participate in protocol-based VLANs, you must set the Tagging field value in the VLAN Port Configuration screen to Tagged Trunk.

VLAN Port Configuration

The VLAN Port Configuration screen (Figure 3-18) allows you to configure specified switch ports with the appropriate PVID/VLAN association that enables the creation of VLAN broadcast domains (see “Shared Servers” on page 1-46 for more information about setting up VLAN broadcast domains).

You can configure specified switch ports to filter (discard) all received tagged frames, untagged frames, or unregistered frames (see “IEEE 802.1Q Tagging” on page 1-39).

You can also prioritize the order in which the switch forwards packets, on a per-port basis (see “IEEE 802.1p Prioritizing” on page 1-59).

Choose VLAN Port Configuration (or press c) from the VLAN Configuration Menu screen to open the VLAN Port Configuration screen.
