    H A P T E R Initial Setup Example 2.1 Overview This chapter shows how to set up the Switch for an example network. The following lists the configuration steps for the initial setup: • Creating a VLAN • Setting Port VID •...
  • Page 22 Chapter 2 Initial Setup Example Enter 2 in the VLAN ID field for the VLAN2 network. Since the VLAN2 network is connected to port 1 on the Switch, configure port 1 to be a permanent member of the VLAN. To ensure that VLAN-unaware devices (such as computers and hubs) can receive frames properly, set the port’s box color to green to set the Switch to remove VLAN tags before sending.
  • Page 23: Setting Port Vid

    Chapter 2 Initial Setup Example 2.1.2 Setting Port VID Use PVID to add a tag to incoming untagged frames received on that port so that the frames are forwarded to the VLAN group that the tag defines. In the example network, configure 2 as the port VID on port 1 so that any untagged frames received on that port get sent to VLAN 2.

A tagged port is orange, an untagged port is green and ports not participating in a VLAN are gray.
  • Page 37: Link Aggregation

    H A P T E R Link Aggregation 4.1 Overview This chapter shows you how to logically aggregate physical links to form one logical and higher bandwidth link. Link aggregation is the grouping of physical ports into one logical higher-capacity link. You may want to trunk ports if for example, it is cheaper to use multiple lower-speed links than to under-utilize a high- speed, but more costly, single-port link.
  • Page 38 The field identifies the default link aggregation group(s) the Switch supports. Group Note: By default, the GS1200-5 and GS1200-5HP v2 have a link aggregation group containing ports 3 and 4. Note: By default, the GS1200-8 and GS1200-8HP v2 have two link aggregation groups.
  • Page 39: Mirroring
