If you are building a Single-card EtherSwitch circuit, from the Slot menu choose the Ethernet card where
Step 15
you enabled the single-card Etherswitch and click Next.
The Circuit Creation (Destination) dialog box opens.
Choose the circuit destination from the Node menu, in this example Node 2. Choose the node that is not

If you are building a Multicard EtherSwitch circuit choose Ethergroup from the Slot menu and click
Step 17
Next.
If you are building a Single-card EtherSwitch circuit, from the Slot menu choose the Ethernet card for
Step 18
which you enabled the Single-card Etherswitch and click Next.
The Circuit Creation (Circuit VLAN Selection) dialog box opens.
Create the VLAN:
Step 19
Click the New VLAN tab.
