Introduction to the BayStack 410-24T Switch
IEEE 802.1Q VLANs
BayStack
When a switch port is configured to be a member of a VLAN, it is added to a group of ports (workgroup) that belong to one broadcast domain. You can assign different ports (and therefore the devices attached to these ports) to different broadcast domains.
This feature allows network flexibility because you can reassign VLANs to accommodate network moves, additions, and changes, eliminating the need to change physical cabling.

You can specify
You can attach a probe device (such as a Nortel Networks StackProbe, or equivalent) to the designated monitor port.
