VLANs

6.3.4 VLAN Summary

There are actually 3 ways VLAN can be created in the switch:

Explicit

VLAN is explicitly configured in the Static VLANs list.

Implicit

VLAN ID is a parameter required for different feature configurations (e.g. Port VLAN Parameters, Static MAC Addresses, IP Interface Type and ID). When such a parameter is set to some VLAN ID value, appropriate VLAN is automatically created, if doesn’t exist yet.

Dynamic

VLAN learned through GVRP.

Note: Not explicitly created VLAN is always created with IGMP Snooping disabled. If it is desirable for IGMP to be used on that VLAN, it should be created as Static VLAN with IGMP enabled.

All VLANs, regardless of the way they were created, are shown in the VLAN Summary.
