3 Configuring the Switch

Configuring Uplink and Downlink Ports

Use the Private VLAN Link Status page to set ports as downlink or uplink ports. Ports designated as downlink ports can not communicate with any other ports on the switch except for the uplink ports. Uplink ports can communicate with any other ports on the switch and with any designated downlink ports.

Web – Click VLAN, Private VLAN, Link Status. Mark the ports that will serve as uplinks and downlinks for the private VLAN, then click Apply.

Protocol VLANs

You can configure VLAN behavior to support multiple protocols to allow traffic to pass through different VLANS. When a packet is received at a port, its VLAN membership is determined by the protocol type of the packet.
