Configuring the Switch Using the Console Interface
The switch reserves one VLAN, VID = 1, called the
DEFAULT_VLAN for internal use. The factory default setting
assigns all ports on the switch to the DEFAULT_VLAN. As new
VLANs are configured, there respective member ports are
removed from the DEFAULT_VLAN. If the DEFAULT_VLAN is
reconfigured, all ports are again assigned to it. Ports that are
not desired to be part of the DEFAULT_VLAN are removed
during the configuration.
Packets cannot cross layer 2 VLANs. If a member of one layer 2
VLAN wants to connect to another layer 2 VLAN, it must be
through a router.
VLANs by Switch Operating Mode –
Layer 2 Only and IP Routing
Note:The switch’s default - in both Layer 2 Only mode
and
IP Routing mode - is to assign all ports to a single
802.1Q VLAN named
DEFAULT_VLAN. As new VLANs
are created, the member ports assigned to the new VLAN
will be removed from the default VLAN port member list.
Note: The DEFAULT_VLAN has a VID = 1. An IP
interface called System in the IP interface entry menu
also has a VID = 1, and therefore corresponds to the
DEFAULT_VLAN.
To create a new 802.1Q VLAN:
The VLAN menu adds an entry to edit the VLAN definitions and
to configure the port settings for IEEE 802.1Q VLAN support.
Highlight VLANs from the Main Menu and press enter.
