6.18.3 Notes

When adding/modifying a Nested VLAN, specifying a port that is already a member
of an existing Normal VLAN will not generate any error. However, the specified

port will be ignored. In addition, during modification, existing member ports having

the same status (tagged/untagged) as the specified port will be deleted.

When importing the default VLAN, VLAN Manager disregards the values specified

for Untagged Ports.

During an Import VLAN operation, VLAN Manager will ignore the values specified

for certain fields depending on the value specified for the Operation Mode field:

o

If Operation Mode is "Normal" - Uplink Port, Private Ports, Core Ports
and Customer Ports

o

If Operation Mode is "Private" - Core Ports and Customer Ports

o

If Operation Mode is "Nested" - Tagged Ports, Untagged Ports, Uplink Port

and Private Ports

User-created VLANs are classified as Multiple Type VLANs. There are three

possible VLAN associations for a Multiple Type VLAN: IP Subnet, Protocol and Port.

Currently, VLAN Manager only supports Port association. As a result, when

attempting to modify a VLAN with an association other than Port, VLAN Manager

automatically changes the association of that VLAN to Port.

When adding/modifying a Nested VLAN, specifying 2 or more core ports where one

of the specified ports is already a member of an existing Nested VLAN will result

in the error message: "Must return port <n> to the default VLAN as untagged port

based."
