Chapter 28: Protected Ports VLANs
676 Section VI: VLANs
Note
A VLAN must be assigned a name.
6. Type 2 to select VLAN ID (VID.
The following prompt is displayed:
Enter new value -> [2 to 4094] ->
7. Type a VID value for the new VLAN. The range for the VID value is 1
to 4094.
The AT-S63 management software uses the next available VID
number on the switch as the default value. It is important to note that
the switch is only aware of the VIDs of the VLANs that exist on the
device, and not those that might already be in use in the network. For
example, if you add a new AT-9400 Series switch to a network that
already contains VLANs that use VIDs 2 through 24, the AT-S63
management software still uses VID 2 as the default value when you
create the first VLAN on the new switch, even though that VID number
is already being used by another VLAN on the network. To prevent
inadvertently using the same VID for two different VLANs, you should
keep a list of all your network VLANs and their VID values.
Note
A VLAN must have a VID.
8. If the VLAN will contain tagged ports, type 3 to select Tagged Ports
and specify the ports. If this VLAN will not contain any tagged ports,
leave this field empty.
You can specify the ports individually (e.g., 2,3,5), as a range (e.g., 7-
9), or both (e.g., 2,5,7-9).
9. Type 4 to select Untagged Ports and specify the ports on the switch to
function as untagged ports in the VLAN. If this VLAN will not contain
any untagged ports, leave this field empty.
You can specify the ports individually (e.g., 2,3,5), as a range (e.g., 7-
9), or both (e.g., 2,5,7-9).
10. Type 5 to select Protected Ports.
The following prompt is displayed:
Enter New Value [Yes/No] ->
11. To make this a protected ports VLAN, type Y. If you do not want this to
be a protected ports VLAN and want it to be a port-based or tagged
VLAN, type N.
