Note:

There are three VLAN modes: ON, OFF and USER DEFINED. When the VLAN mode is OFF, all VDSL and Ethernet ports can communicate each other. When VLAN mode is ON, the switch will automatically create the following 13 VLANs. All VDSL ports cannot communicate each other and can only connect to port A and D. When VLAN mode is USER DEFINED, you can use VG command to create your own VLAN settings.

VLAN settings when VLAN is ON:

Group 01 - 1,A,D

Group 02 - 2,A,D

Group 03 - 3,A,D

Group 04 - 4,A,D

Group 05 - 5,A,D

Group 06 - 6,A,D

Group 07 - 7,A,D

Group 08 - 8,A,D

Group 09 - 9,A,D

Group 10 - 10,A,D

Group 11 - 11,A,D

Group 12 - 12,A,D

Group 13 - A,B,C,D

5.3 Setting VLAN Functionality

The VLAN function offers security and flexibility of controlling each port’s access to one another. This feature is useful in MDU and hotel situations where you would not want each computer to be able to “see” all other computers connected to the VC-412. However, in some situation you may need to have a few ports with the capability of communicating with one another. Such situations may arise for sharing files, collaboration software, faster multi-player gaming, etc.

Activating the VLAN function allows each port to be individualized, and
