Table 3-8.	VLAN Configuration Screen Fields
Field	Description
Create VLAN	Allows you to set up or view configured VLAN workgroups. Enter the number of the
	new VLAN you want to create or view, then press [Return]. The Port Membership
	fields indicate the corresponding VLAN workgroup configuration, if configured, or all
	dashes (-), indicating no VLAN Members configured. Alternatively, you can use the
	space bar to toggle through the various configured VLAN workgroups. You can only
	create up to 64 different VLANs (including VLAN V1).
	Default	1
	Range	2 to 4094
Delete VLAN	Allows you to delete specified VLANs. Enter the number of the VLAN you want to
	delete, then press [Return], or use the space bar to toggle through the selection until
	you reach the VLAN you want to delete, then press [Return].
	The selected VLAN is deleted as soon as you press [Return]. The software does not
	prompt you to reconsider this action.
	You cannot delete VLAN 1. By default, all switch ports are assigned as untagged
	members of VLAN 1 with all ports configured as PVID = 1. See “IEEE 802.1Q VLAN
	Workgroups” on page 1-32 for more information.
	Default	blank field
	Range	2 to 4094
VLAN Name	Allows you to assign a name field to configured VLANs.
	Default	VLAN # (VLAN number)
	Range	Any ASCII string of up to 16 printable characters

Port Membership Allows you to assign VLAN port memberships to standalone or stacked unit ports. The ports can be configured in one or more VLANs.

This field is dependent on the Tagging field value in the VLAN Port Configuration screen (see the Tagging field description in Table 3-9 on page 3-27).

For example:

•When the Tagging field is set to Untagged Access, you can set the Port Membership field as an untagged port member (U) or as a non-VLAN port member (-).

•When the Tagging field is set to Tagged Trunk, you can set the Port Membership field as a tagged port member (T) or as a non-VLAN port

member (-).
