Set Up Optional Double Tagging

If you are using the 9161 within a service provider environment, you can include VLANS from
different customers that are connected to individual ports. You can view and set service provider ID
tags for those ports at the Double Tagging Configuration screen, which lists the ports and associated
PVIDs. The double tag is derived from the PVID. When enabled, double tagging adds the double tag
to a packet as it exits a port; or when disabled, strips the double tag as it exits a port. When you set
values for ports on the Double Tagging Configuration screen, it automatically adjusts associated
parameters on the VLAN port x Information screen.

To access the Double Tagging Configuration screen, follow these steps:

1. From the Switch Configuration menu, type

6

, "Double Tagging Configuration," and press

<Enter>.

2. At the Double Tagging Configuration screen, type

1

to enable or 2 to disable double tagging, then

at the prompts, enter the port number and PVID, then press <Enter> to set the tag.

3. To save the changes and return to the Switch Configuration menu, type

, "Accept configuration

and exit," and press <Enter>.
