Specify A Port Pvid For An Advanced 802.1Q Vlan - NETGEAR MS108EUP User Manual

8-port Ultra60 PoE++ Multi-Gigabit (2.5G) Ethernet Plus Switch

Specify a port PVID for an advanced 802.1Q VLAN

A default port VLAN ID (PVID) is a VLAN ID tag that the switch assigns to incoming data
packets that are not already addressed (tagged) for a particular VLAN. For example, if
you connect a computer to port 6 of the switch and you want it to be a part of VLAN 2,
add port 6 as a member of VLAN 2 and set the PVID of port 6 to 2. This configuration
automatically adds a PVID of 2 to all data that the switch receives from the computer
and makes sure that the data from the computer on port 6 can be seen only by other
members of VLAN 2. You can assign only one PVID to a port.
Note: If you did not yet create an advanced 802.1Q VLAN, all ports are assigned PVID 1
and you cannot assign another PVID to a port. In this situation, first create an advanced
802.1Q VLAN (see Create an advanced 802.1Q VLAN on page 47).
To assign a PVID to a port:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
switch, or connected directly to the switch through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the device management password.
The password is the one that you specified the first time that you logged in. The
password is case-sensitive.
The HOME page displays.
4. From the menu at the top of the page, select SWITCHING.
The QOS page displays.
5. From the menu on the left, select VLAN.
The VLAN page displays.
If you did not yet activate the Advanced 802.1Q VLAN mode, see Activate the
advanced 802.1Q VLAN mode on page 46.
6. In PVID Table section in the right pane, click the PVID Table link.
The Port and VLAN IDs pane displays.
7. Click the icon for a port.
A menu displays. The menu lets you select a PVID for the port.
8. From the menu, select a VLAN ID and name.
You can select only a VLAN that the selected port is a member of.
9. Click the APPLY button.
