Port PVID
A Port Default VLAN ID (PVID) is a VLAN ID tag that the switch will assign to data packets it
receives that are not already addressed (tagged) for a particular VLAN group. If you have a
PC on port 6 and you want it to be a part of VLAN group 2, you would configure port 6 to
automatically add a PVID of 2 to all data received from the PC. This will ensure that the data
from the PC on port 6 can only be seen by other members of VLAN group 2.
You can only assign one PVID to a port.
To assign a PVID to a port:
1.
Select a switch.
2.
Select VLAN > 802.1Q > Advanced > Port PVID. The Port PVID screen displays.
3.
Select the port you want to configure.
4.
Enter the PVID you want to assign to the ports and click Apply.
Port Tagging
Port tagging allows a port to add VLAN ID tags to data packets sent through the port. The tag
identifies the VLAN that should receive the data.
Some switches allow Port Tagging to be done on the VLAN Membership screen. If so the
port check boxes allow you to select U (un tagged) or T (tagged) in addition to adding the port
to the VLAN group. This causes the data for an individual port to be tagged (associated) with
a VLAN group.
