Creating and Implementing VLANs

A port can be statically configured to Bind to more than one VLAN. This
causes the port to become a member of each specified VLAN. This feature
is configured from the CLI. This feature cannot be configured from the Web
Agent.
To configure from the CLI use the following command:
(configure)# set VLAN{<VLAN-id> | name <VLAN-name>}
<mod-swport-range>[...,<mod-swport-range>]
This configuration should only be used under special circumstances
and with the assistance of customer support.
* Note: The Web Agent does not allow static binding of multiple
VLANs to a single port. If you use the CLI to statically bind
multiple VLANs to a single port, do not attempt to use the Web
Agent to statically bind additional VLANs to the port or
remove existing VLANs from the port.
For a given port/VLAN combination, egress rules determine whether
frames transmitted from the port on the VLAN are tagged or untagged. This
is accomplished by setting the Trunking Mode attribute in the Switch Port
Configuration web page.
For example, choosing the IEEE 802.1Q trunk mode causes all frames
transmitted out of the port to be tagged using the IEEE 802.1Q tag header
format. Individual port/VLAN combinations may be changed to cause
frames transmitted from the port to be untagged (or clear mode).
