VLAN Port Attribute Configuration

Page 9-17

Enter Port VID (1 - 4095) >

Enter the VID of the VLAN to which this port is associated and
press

return

. If no value is given or if the given value is an

invalid VLAN ID, port tagging is not disabled and the following
message is displayed:

Tagging NOT Disabled, press any key to continue

Note:

Port VID and Tagging information are

stored in a Non-Volatile Data Base, so you do
not have to configure them each time the system
starts up.

Map a Port to Multi-

ple VLAN Groups

This option is mainly available for making a port belong to
multiple VLAN Groups. But this option can also be used instead
of the "Set Port VID" option to make a port belong to a VLAN
Group. When used for port-to-multi-VLAN Group mapping, this
option gives a warning message if port tagging is disabled.

To make a port belong to one or more VLAN Groups, press

m

in VLAN Port Attribute Configuration Menu. The following
message appears:

Enter VLAN Group #s separated by spaces (0

means ALL) >

If you want to make a port belong to only one VLAN Group,
enter the corresponding VLAN Group number next to the
prompt and press

return

. The port is now made a member of

the desired VLAN Group and the screen shows the changed
configuration.

If you want to make a port belong to more than one VLAN
Group, enter the corresponding VLAN Group numbers,
separated by spaces, and press

return

. If port tagging is

enabled, then the port is made a member of the desired VLAN
Groups and the changes are shown on the screen. If the value
given is 0, then the port is made a member of all VLAN Groups
in the system.
