VLAN Settings - Creating VLANs
You can create a VLAN, but this has no effect until the VLAN is attached to at least one port, either manually
or dynamically. Ports must always belong to one or more VLANs.
The 200 Series device supports up to 256 VLANs, including the default VLAN.
Each VLAN must be configured with a unique VID with a value from 1 to 4094. The device reserves VID
4095 as the Discard VLAN. All packets classified to the Discard VLAN are discarded at ingress, and are not
forwarded to a port.
To create a VLAN:
STEP 1
Information is displayed for all defined VLANs. The fields are defined below under the Add page. The
following field is not on the Add page.
• Originators—How the VLAN was created:
- Static—VLAN is user-defined.
- Default—VLAN is the default VLAN.
STEP 2
The page enables the creation of either a single VLAN or a range of VLANs.
STEP 3
To create a range of VLANs, select the Range radio button, and specify the range of VLANs to be created
by entering the Starting VID and Ending VID, inclusive. When using the Range function, the maximum
number of VLANs you can create at one time is 100.
STEP 4
• VLAN Interface State—Select to shutdown the VLAN. In this state, the VLAN does not transmit/
receive messages.
• from/to higher levels. For example, if you shut down a VLAN, on which an IP interface is configured,
