6.12.3 Notes
•
AT-9400 L3 Models: The current firmware version does not allow VLAN Manager
to distinguish Protected VLANs. As a result, VLAN Manager will display and treat
Protected VLANs as if they were standard Port-based VLAN or Mac-based VLAN
depending on the type of existing VLAN prior to Protected VLAN. Attempting to
modify a Protected VLAN will result to an error message: "An error occured during
operation. Error. You are trying to modify a Protected VLAN. Modification made
will not be applied." Furthermore, modifying a Protected VLAN will convert that
VLAN into a standard Port-based VLAN or Mac-based VLAN depending also
on the type of existing VLAN prior to modified Protected VLAN.
Ex.
o
In CLI, VLAN record#1 is a Port-based VLAN and VLAN record#2 is a
Protected VLAN. In VLAN Manager, VLAN record#2 will be displayed
as standard Port-based VLAN. Furthermore, modifying VLAN record#2
will be converted into a standard Port-based VLAN.
o
In CLI, VLAN record#7 is a Mac-based VLAN and VLAN record#8 is a
Protected VLAN. In VLAN Manager, VLAN record#8 will be displayed
as Mac-based VLAN. Furthermore, modifying VLAN record#8 will be
converted into a Mac-based VLAN.
•
An uplink port must be specified to change the VLAN Mode to "Multiple VLAN"
or to "802.1Q Multiple VLAN". Specifying an incorrect port as the uplink port will
cause VLAN Manager to lose connection with the device without any warning.
Exercise caution.
•
AT-9400 L2 Models: The current firmware version does not allow VLAN Manager
to distinguish Protected VLANs, Mac-based VLANs and standard Port-based VLANs
from each other. As a result, VLAN Manager will display and treat Protected VLANs
and Mac-based VLANs as if they were standard Port-based VLANs. Furthermore,
modifying a Protected VLAN or a Mac-based VLAN will convert that VLAN into
a standard Port-based VLAN.
•
AT-9424T/PoE: Firmware version "AT-S63 version 3.2.1 patch 05" does not allow
VLAN Manager to add a MAC-based VLAN. Attempting to do so will result to an
error message: "Error: Commit Failed".
•
The current firmware version does not allow the Default VLAN to be modified.
As a result, all VLAN Manager operations involving the Default VLAN will fail.
•
For 20-character VLAN Names entered via telnet, only the first 19 characters are
registered in VLAN Manager.
