Provisioning a link in a Shared

Shared VLAN modes associate multiple links with a single VLAN. The upstream CoS
inserted by the TK3721 is always 0.

Notice that the panel features a “Set” button similar to the panel used to provision the
dedicated VLAN. This button has identical functionality.

In addition to the VLAN provisioning box, a second box appears to the right that is used to
display a list of all logical links in the provisioned VLAN. No links will be displayed in this
box until the VLAN provisioning is applied. Clicking on a logical link in this list allows the
user to quickly change the context of the panel to the other logical link. This is useful when
changing links to a different VLAN.

The “Add” button is used to add a VID and the “Delete” button is used to remove a VID.

A box to the right of the provisioning window is used to display all of the VIDs associated
