2 Enter a descriptive name for the VLAN. The name must begin with a letter followed by up to 31
characters. See the ExtremeWare Software User Guide for details on VLAN naming.
3 Select an entry from the pull-down Protocol Filter list. This selection determines what protocol (if
any) is used to determine membership in this VLAN. If you do not want to specify a protocol, select
ANY. This means the filtering rules will match all unfiltered protocols.
4 If the VLAN is to be tagged, enter a 802.1Q tag value in the Tag field. The tag value can be a number
between 2 and 4095. By entering a tag number, you enable tagging for this VLAN. Enter the text
"untagged" or 0 (zero) to indicate that the VLAN is to be untagged.
5 To add a port to the VLAN, first select the switch from the Available Switches list. This displays a
list of ports on the switch that are available to be included in the VLAN.
NOTE
The Available Ports list does not include ports configured as slave load sharing ports.
6 Select one or more ports from the Available Ports list.
7 Click Tagged to add the port as a tagged port. Click Untagged to add the port as an untagged port.
If this is an untagged VLAN, you are not able to add a tagged port.
If you add a port untagged, EPICenter must remove it from any other VLAN that includes the port
as an untagged member and that uses the same protocol as the VLAN to which you are adding the
port. EPICenter will warn you and let you confirm that this is what you want.
You can add a switch to a VLAN as a unit—just select the switch without selecting any ports, and
click Tagged or Untagged to add the switch to the VLAN.
8 To remove a port from the VLAN, select the port from the Ports in VLAN list, and then click
Remove.
