Specifying a Management VLAN

The management VLAN is the VLAN through which an AT-9400 Series
switch expects to receive management packets. This VLAN is important if
you are managing a switch remotely or using the enhanced stacking
feature of the switch. For more details about specifying a management
VLAN, see Chapter 25, “Port-based and Tagged VLANs,” in the AT-S63
Management Software Menus Interface User’s Guide
.

Note

You cannot specify a management VLAN when the switch is
operating in a multiple VLAN mode.

To specify the management VLAN, perform the following procedure:

1. From the home page, select Configuration.

The System page is displayed with the General tab selected by default,
as shown in Figure 5 on page 38.

2. From the Configuration menu, select the Layer 2 option.

The Layer 2 page is displayed with the MAC Address tab selected by
default, as shown in Figure 25 on page 94.

3. Select the VLAN tab.

The VLAN tab is shown in Figure 143 on page 346.

4. For the Mgmt. VLAN ID parameter, enter the VID of the VLAN on the

switch that you want to function as the management VLAN. The VLAN
must already exist on the switch. The default is 1, which is the VID of
the Default_VLAN.

5. Click Apply.

6. From the Configuration menu, select the Save Config option to

permanently save your changes. (This option is not displayed if there
are no changes to save.)
