Choose the type of VLAN information you want to be carried across this Ethernet
switch port. Choosing Access causes the switch port to forward only data destined
for the specific VLAN number. Choosing Trunking causes the switch port to
forward data for all VLANs, including the VLAN data itself. Choose Trunking
only for "trunking" VLAN ports that connect to other networking devices, such
as another switch, that will connect to devices in multiple VLANs.
To assign the switch port to a VLAN, enter the VLAN number to which this
switch port should belong. If the switch port does not already have a VLAN
associated with it, this field will show the default value of VLAN 1. To create a
new VLAN interface corresponding the VLAN ID, enter that VLAN ID here and
check the Make VLAN visible to interface list check box.
Check this box if you want to create a new VLAN with the VLAN ID specified in
the VLAN field.
Select a switch module as the stacking partner to use. When a device contains
multiple switching modules, these must be stacked before other stacking partners.
If you want this switch port to form part of a bridge to a wireless network, enter
the number of an existing bridge group.
