Tag-Based Vlan - TRENDnet TPE-80WS User Manual

2.1.4 Tag-based VLAN

Tag-based VLAN is another kind of VLAN which is a group of ports marked as same kind by
assigning a tag-value on each port, same as port-based VLAN, different VLAN ( different ID )
can't communicate to each other, and before the setting, there is a default tag-based VLAN,
which ID is 1 ( VLAN ID=1 ), so, if he wants to set another new tag-based VLAN, better set
another VLAN ID rather than 1 ( tag-base VALN ID ranged from 1 ~ 4094 ). After press " Apply
" button, the screen will show a new tag-based VLAN if user add a new VALN, or, a tag-VLAN
will be vanished if user delete a VLAN. Two important things must be emphasized here, one is
that tag-based VLAN members are valid not only within same device, but also cross the devices
as long as they are with same VLAN ID; the other important thing is user must keep in mind
that the management-port ( CPU port )VLAN ID should be the same as some member VLAN ID
if user want to management through that port, or, management communication will be failed
because different VLAN ( different ID ) can't communicate to each other.
