test again.
Cable Fault Distance (meters): Indicates the distance of the cable fault from the Switch port, if the cable is

VLAN > 802.1Q VLAN
A VLAN is a group of ports that can be anywhere in the network, but communicate as though they were in
the same area.
VLANs can be easily organized to reflect department groups (such as R&D, Marketing), usage groups (such
as e-mail), or multicast groups (multimedia applications such as video conferencing), and therefore help to
simplify network management by allowing users to move devices to a new VLAN without having to change
any physical connections.
By default, 802.1Q VLAN is disabled. With 802.1Q VLAN enabled, the VLAN VID 1 is created by default with
an empty VLAN name field and all ports are configured as "Untagged" members.
The 802.1Q VLAN configuration is accomplished in three steps:
Enabling 802.1Q VLAN function
Creating a new VID group and assigning ports as Untagged, Tagged or Not Member.
Configuring the PVID of access VLAN
Add VID: Click to create a new VID group, assigning ports from 1 to 24 as Untagged, Tagged, or Not
Member. VLAN VID is a unique number (between 1 and 4094) that indentifies a particular VLAN. A port can
be untagged in only one VID. To save the VID group, click Apply. You can also change the name according
to the desired groups.
PVID settings: Port VLAN ID (PVID) is an identification that encompasses a particular switch port's
identification and VLAN membership. This identification is used to classify the incoming untagged frames.
Click to configure the PVID of a port.
NOTE: Cable length detection is effective at every
speed of 10Mbps, 100Mbps and 1Gbps.
