Table 3-8 describes the VLAN Configuration screen fields.
Table 3-8. VLAN Configuration Screen Fields
Field Description
Create VLAN Allows you to set up or view configured VLAN workgroups. Enter the number of the
new VLAN you want to create or view, then press [Return]. The Port Membership
fields indicate the corresponding VLAN workgroup configuration, if configured, or all
dashes (-), indicating no VLAN Members configured. Alternatively, you can use the
space bar to toggle through the various configured VLAN workgroups. You can only
create up to 64 different VLANs (including VLAN V1).
Default 1
Range 2 to 4094
Delete VLAN Allows you to delete specified VLANs. Enter the number of the VLAN you want to
delete, then press [Return], or use the space bar to toggle through the selection until
you reach the VLAN you want to delete, then press [Return].
The selected VLAN is deleted as soon as you press [Return]. The software does not
prompt you to reconsider this action.
You cannot delete VLAN 1. By default, all switch ports are assigned as untagged
members of VLAN 1 with all ports configured as PVID = 1. See
“IEEE 802.1Q VLAN
Workgroups ” on page 1-32 for more information.
Default blank field
Range 2 to 4094
VLAN Name Allows you to assign a name field to configured VLANs.
Default VLAN # ( VLAN number)
Range Any ASCII string of up to 16 printable characters
Port Membership Allows you to assign VLAN port memberships to standalone or stacked unit ports.
The ports can be configured in one or more VLANs.
This field is dependent on the Tagging field value in the VLAN Port Configuration
screen (see the Tagging field description in
Table 3-9 on page 3-27 ).
For example:
• When the Tagging field is set to Untagged Access, you can set the Port
Membership field as an untagged port member (U) or as a non-VLAN port
member (-).
• When the Tagging field is set to Tagged Trunk, you can set the Port Membership
field as a tagged port member (T) or as a non-VLAN port
member (-).
