VLAN
A VLAN is a group of ports that can be located anywhere in the network, but communicate as though they belong
to the same physical segment.
VLANs help to simplify network management by allowing you to move devices to a new VLAN without having to
change any physical connections. VLANs can be easily organized to reflect departmental groups (such as
Marketing or R&D), usage groups (such as e-mail), or multicast groups (used for multimedia applications such as
videoconferencing).
The VLAN screen displays the following information for each VLAN and each port.
Selected VLAN. Lists all the current VLAN groups created for this system. Up to 128 VLAN groups can be defined.
VLAN 1 is the default untagged VLAN.
Up Time at Creation. This displays the amount of time since this VLAN was created (that is, System Up Time).
Status. Shows if this VLAN is enabled or disabled.
VLAN ID. ID of configured VLAN (1-4094, no leading zeroes).
VLAN Name. Name of the VLAN (1 to 32 characters).
VLAN type. Shows how this VLAN was added to the switch.
• Default: The Switch's default VLAN.
• Static: Added as a static entry.
Member Information. Shows the VLAN interface members.
