DESCRIPTION
Check this box to activate this protocol based VLAN.
Type a port number to be included in this protocol based VLAN.
This port must belong to a static VLAN in order to participate in a protocol based VLAN. See
Chapter 9 on page 88 for more details on setting up VLANs.
Enter up to 32 alphanumeric characters to identify this protocol based VLAN.
Use the drop down list box to select a predefined protocol to be included in this protocol
based VLAN or select Others and type the protocol number in hexadecimal notation. For
example, the IP protocol in hexadecimal notation is 0800, and Novell IPX protocol is 8137.
Note: Protocols in the hexadecimal number range of 0x0000 to 0x05ff are not allowed to be
used for protocol based VLANs.
Enter the ID of a VLAN to which the port belongs. This must be an existing VLAN which you
defined in the Advanced Applications > VLAN screens.
Select the priority level that the Switch will assign to frames belonging to this VLAN.
Click Add to save your changes to the Switch's run-time memory. The Switch loses these
changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to
save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
This is the index number identifying this protocol based VLAN. Click on any of these
