Changing the Port Mode

To change the operational mode of a port, proceed as follows.
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the PORT MODE field for the
module and port combination you wish to change.
2. Use the SPACE bar or BACKSPACE key to step through the available
selections. A port may be configured for any of the following modes:
• HYBRID – This is the default mode for all ports on the switch.
The initial Port VLAN List includes the PVID with a frame format
of untagged. Any other VLANs desired for the Port VLAN List
need to be manually configured. By changing the default mode to
1Q Trunk or 1D Trunk, the Port VLAN List and the associated
frame type are automatically configured.
