Section VI: Virtual LANs

Adding and Deleting Egress Ports

This procedure explains how to add and delete egress ports from the MAC
addresses in a MAC address-based VLAN.

Before adding egress ports to a MAC address, review the following:

ˆ

The egress ports of a MAC address-based VLAN are considered as a
community. Assigning a port to one address makes it an egress port
for all the addresses in the same VLAN.

ˆ

A MAC address must have at least one egress port. Otherwise, the
address is not considered a part of the VLAN and the PVID of the port
where the packet’s of the node are received determines VLAN
membership.

ˆ

A MAC address must be added to a VLAN before you can assign it an
egress port. For instructions, refer to “Adding and Deleting MAC
Addresses” on page 536.

To add or delete egress ports from a MAC address, perform the following
procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type 2 to select VLAN Configuration.

The VLAN Configuration menu is shown in Figure 171 on page 472.

2. From the VLAN Configuration menu, type 3 to select Configure

VLANs.

The Configure VLANs menu is shown in Figure 172 on page 473.

3. From the Configure VLANs menu, type 2 to select Modify VLAN.

The Modify VLAN menu is shown in Figure 174 on page 481.

4. From the Modify VLAN menu, type 3 to select Configure MAC

Associations.

The MAC Based VLANs menu is shown in Figure 199 on page 536.

5. To add an egress port to a MAC address, type 3 to select Add Ports.

To delete an address, type 4 to select Delete Ports.

The following prompt is displayed:

Please enter VLAN ID -> [1 to 4094] -> 2

6. Enter the VID of the MAC address-based VLAN where you want to

add or delete an egress port. You can enter only one VID. To display
the VIDs, refer to “Displaying MAC Address-based VLANs” on
page 542.
