Go to the Administration page - then Upgrade (or something similar).

    Putting any of the 6 ethernet ports on a separate detached VLAN network is complicated by the fact that there are two internal hardware switches used by R9000 for routing traffic. Creating additional Vlan's on the R9000, right now, has not yet been "figured out" for the 6 ehternet ports.
  • Page 4 Netgear_R9000 Detaching the SFP+ port To create a 10 gb/sec VLAN, start by setting up the SFP+ port as you would any VAP by navigating to Setup > Networking: Next, under the Port Setup heading, locate the group box called Network Configuration eth0 and unbridge the interface by selecting the Unbridged radio button assigned to Bridge Assignment.
  • Page 5 Netgear_R9000 Optionally, you can force DNS redirection if you want the devices on that VLAN to be forced into using a preferred DNS server choice by enabling the Forced DNS Redirection option and entering the DNS server IP in the Optional DNS Target text boxes. Stop here and click Save and Apply Settings at the bottom of the page, in that order.
  • Page 6 Also note that the SFP+ modules do get hot. I would change the fan threshold parameters to make sure that your R9000 fans stay on 24/7. They aren't loud and could help keep mobo and CPU speeds in check during the incoming summer months while transferring files at 10 gb/sec in your new VLAN.
