VLAN. One configuration that is common for port based VLANs is to have all the ports on the switch on separate VLANs except for the port that has the server connected. The port connected to the server belongs to all the VLANs.
Page 28
Port Based VLANs To configure a new VLAN, select Edit and then use the tab key to select items you want to configure. The space bar allows you to select the different options. In the following configuration, ports 6, 7, and 8 are trunked. After adding a VLAN group, the configuration option Edit a VLAN Group will allow you to change the membership by adding or deleting ports.
Page 29
IEEE802.1Q VLANs If IEEE802.1Q VLANs is selected, all the ports will belong to the default VLAN 1.
Page 30
If more than one VLAN is necessary, the additional VLANs may be created. PVID (Port VID): Set the port VLAN ID that will be assigned to untagged traffic on a given port. This feature is useful for accommodating devices that you want to participate in the VLAN, but don’t support tagging.
4-3-4-2. Create a VLAN Group To create a VLAN and add tagged /untagged member ports to it: 1. VLAN Name: Type a name for the new VLAN using 15 alphanumeric characters and no spaces. 2. VLAN ID: Type a VID (between 2~4094). The default is 1. 3.
4-3-4-3. Edit / Delete a VLAN Group Use this menu to edit or delete a VLAN group. Choose <Edit> or <Delete>. Choose the VLAN to delete or edit by using the TAB key. VLAN 1, the default VLAN, can never be deleted. All other VLANs can be deleted using this menu.
These options represent the number of high priority packets sent before one low priority packet is sent. For example, 2 High : 1 Low means that the switch sends 2 high priority packets before sending 1 low priority packet.
11. In the Port Num field, enter the port number for the device. 12. The VLAN ID field is not available if the switch is configured for port based VLANs. If tag-based (802.1Q) VLANs are configured, the static addresses are associated with individual VLANs.

4-3-7.Misc. Configuration 4-3-7-1.Port Security A port set in security mode will be “locked” and be without address learning. Only the incoming packets with the source MAC address already existing in the address table can be forwarded. With port security, users can disable a port from learning new MAC addresses.
To configure a different MAC Age Interval, type the number of seconds that an inactive MAC address remains in the switch’s address table before it is deleted. Once the address is removed from the table, a device will have to send out broadcast packets to be relearned by the switch and have its address put in the table.
4-3-7-3.Broadcast Storm Filtering Broadcast storm filtering is used to limit the amount of broadcast traffic on the network. An excessive amount of broadcast traffic can inhibit data packets from timely delivery. The valid threshold values are 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and NO. If the broadcast traffic is greater than the configured value, broadcast packets will be dropped.
Enable Delay Bound: If this parameter is enabled, the “Max bridge transmit delay bound” must also be configured. This item allows you to limit the queuing time of low priority packets in the switch. When the low priority packets exceed the “Max Delay Time” they will be transmitted. Press the Space key to enable or disable this function.

5-4-5-1. Aggregator Setting System Priority: A value used to identify the active LACP. The switch with the lowest value has the highest priority and is selected as the active LACP. 1. Group ID: To create a trunk across two or more ports, choose the "Group ID"...
5-4-5-2. Aggregator Information The LACP Aggregator relation information is displayed as shown. 5-4-5-3. State Activity Active (select): The active port automatically sends LACP protocol packets. Passive (no select): The passive port does not automatically send LACP protocol packets, but responds only if it receives LACP protocol packets from the other device.
IGMP has three fundamental types of message as follows: Message A message sent from the queryer (IGMP router or switch) asking for a Query response from each host belonging to the multicast group. A message sent by a host to the queryer to indicate that the host wants to be Report or is a member of a given group indicated in the report message.
5-4-6-2. Static MAC Address When a static MAC address is added, it remains in the switch's address table, regardless of whether or not the device is physically connected to the switch. This saves the switch from having to re-learn a device's MAC address when the device is disconnected or powered-off.
5-4-6-3. Port Security A port in security mode will be “locked” with address learning blocked. Only the incoming packets with SMAC already existing in the address table can be forwarded normally. The user can disable the port from learning any new MAC addresses, then use the static MAC addresses screen to define a list of MAC addresses that can use the secure port.
Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plugged into the same switch physically. The MIL-SM801P, MIL-SM801G, and MIL-SM800P switch series support port-based and protocol-based VLANs. In the default configuration, VLAN support is enabled and all ports on the switch belong to the default VLAN.
