Use the VLAN > Static pages to create or remove VLAN groups. To propagate information about VLAN groups used on this switch to external network devices, you must specify a VLAN ID for each of these groups.
Add
ID of VLAN or range of VLANs.
VLAN 1 is the default untagged VLAN.
VLAN 4093 is dedicated for Switch Clustering. Configuring this VLAN for other purposes may cause problems in the Clustering operation.
Enables or disables the specified VLAN.
Reserves this VLAN for RSPAN
Modify
ID of VLAN or range of VLANs.
Name of the VLAN (1 to 32 characters).
Enables or disables the specified VLAN.
Sets the interface to support Layer 3 configuration, and reserves memory space required to maintain additional information about this interface type. This parameter must be enabled before you can assign an IP address to a VLAN.
Show
ID of configured VLAN.
Name of the VLAN.
Operational status of configured VLAN.
Shows if RSPAN is enabled on this VLAN.
Shows if the interface supports Layer 3 configuration.
Use the VLAN > Static (Edit Member by VLAN, Edit Member by Interface, or Edit Member by Interface Range) pages to configure port members for the selected VLAN index, interface, or a range of interfaces. Use the menus for editing port members to configure the VLAN behavior for specific interfaces, including the mode of operation (Hybrid or 1Q Trunk), the default VLAN identifier (PVID), accepted frame types, and ingress filtering. Assign ports as tagged if they are connected to 802.1Q VLAN compliant devices, or untagged they are not connected to any VLAN-aware devices. Or configure a port as forbidden to prevent the switch from automatically adding it to a VLAN via the GVRP protocol.
Edit Member by VLAN
ID of configured VLAN.
Displays a list of ports or trunks.
Port Identifier.
Trunk Identifier.
Indicates VLAN membership mode for an interface. (Default: Hybrid)
Sets the port to operate as an untagged interface. The port transmits and receives untagged frames on a single VLAN only.
Access mode is mutually exclusive with VLAN trunking. If VLAN trunking is enabled on an interface, then that interface cannot be set to access mode, and vice versa.
Specifies a hybrid VLAN interface. The port may transmit tagged or untagged frames.
Specifies a port as an end-point for a VLAN trunk. A trunk is a direct link between two switches, so the port transmits tagged frames that identify the source VLAN. Note that frames belonging to the port‘s default VLAN (i.e., associated with the PVID) are also transmitted as tagged frames.
VLAN ID assigned to untagged frames received on the interface. (Default: 1)
When using Access mode, and an interface is assigned to a new VLAN, its PVID is automatically set to the identifier for that VLAN. When using Hybrid mode, the PVID for an interface can be set to any VLAN for which it is an untagged member.
Sets the interface to accept all frame types, including tagged or untagged frames, or only tagged frames. When set to receive all frame types, any received frames that are untagged are assigned to the default VLAN. (Options: All, Tagged; Default: All)
Determines how to process frames tagged for VLANs for which the ingress port is not a member. (Default: Enabled)
Ingress filtering only affects tagged frames.
If ingress filtering is disabled and a port receives frames tagged for VLANs for which it is not a member, these frames will be flooded to all other ports (except for those VLANs explicitly forbidden on this port).
If ingress filtering is enabled and a port receives frames tagged for VLANs for which it is not a member, these frames will be discarded.
Ingress filtering does not affect VLAN independent BPDU frames, such as GVRP or STP. However, they do affect VLAN dependent BPDU frames, such as GMRP.
Select VLAN membership for each interface by marking the appropriate radio button for a port or trunk:
Tagged: Interface is a member of the VLAN. All packets transmitted by the port will be tagged, that is, carry a tag and therefore carry VLAN or CoS information.
Untagged: Interface is a member of the VLAN. All packets transmitted by the port will be untagged, that is, not carry a tag and therefore not carry VLAN or CoS information. Note that an interface must be assigned to at least one group as an untagged port.
Forbidden: Interface is forbidden from automatically joining the VLAN via GVRP. This attribute cannot be configured if the specified VLAN does not exist on the switch.
None: Interface is not a member of the VLAN. Packets associated with this VLAN will not be transmitted by the interface.
Note: VLAN 1 is the default untagged VLAN containing all ports on the switch using Hybrid mode.
Edit Member by Interface
All parameters are the same as those described under the preceding section for Edit Member by VLAN.
Edit Member by Interface Range
All parameters are the same as those described under the earlier section for Edit Member by VLAN, except for the items shown below.

Displays a list of ports.
Note: The PVID, acceptable frame type, and ingress filtering parameters for each interface within the specified range must be configured on either the Edit Member by VLAN or Edit Member by Interface page.
