6.2 Creating a VLAN and Setting Port VID
By default, all ports on the Switch are in VLAN 1.
VLANs confine broadcast frames to the VLAN group in which the ports belongs. You can create a VLAN
group with fixed port members to do this.
If you want to have a port (for example port 1) belong to another VLAN as well, say VLAN 2, you need to
create a VLAN first, and then add the port to the VLAN.
