10. Optionally select the
sets the channel group for the port.
Select the radio button to allow the Cisco discovery protocol for receiving data
on this port.
Select the radio button to allow the Cisco discovery protocol for transmitting
data on this port.
Select this option to snoop LLDP on this port. The default setting is enabled.
Select this option to transmit LLDP PDUs on this port. The default setting is
disabled.
Switching Mode
parameters to apply to the Ethernet port configuration:
Select either the Access or Trunk radio button to set the VLAN switching mode
over the port. If Access is selected, the port accepts packets only form the
native VLANs. Frames are forwarded out the port untagged with no 802.1Q
header. All frames received on the port are expected as untagged and are
mapped to the native VLAN. If the mode is set to Trunk, the port allows packets
from a list of VLANs you add to the trunk. A port configured as Trunk supports
multiple 802.1Q tagged VLANs and one Native VLAN which can be tagged or
untagged. Access is the default mode.
Use the spinner control to define a numerical Native VLAN ID between 1 -
4094. The native VLAN allows the access point to associate untagged frames
to a VLAN when no 802.1Q frame is included in the frame. Additionally, the
native VLAN is the VLAN which untagged traffic will be directed over when
using a port in trunk mode. The default VLAN is 1.
Select the radio button to tag the native VLAN. The IEEE 802.1Q specification
is supported for tagging frames and coordinating VLANs between devices.
IEEE 802.1Q adds four bytes to each frame identifying the VLAN ID for
upstream devices that the frame belongs. If the upstream Ethernet device does
not support IEEE 802.1Q tagging, it does not interpret the tagged frames. When
VLAN tagging is required between devices, both devices must support tagging
and be configured to accept tagged VLANs. When a frame is tagged, the 12 bit
frame VLAN ID is added to the 802.1Q header so upstream Ethernet devices
know which VLAN ID the frame belongs to. The device reads the 12 bit VLAN
ID and forwards the frame to the appropriate VLAN. When a frame is received
with no 802.1Q header, the upstream device classifies the frame using the
default or native VLAN assigned to the Trunk port. The native VLAN allows an
Ethernet device to associate untagged frames to a VLAN when no 802.1Q
frame is included in the frame. This feature is disabled by default.
Selecting Trunk as the mode enables the Allowed VLANs parameter. Add
VLANs that exclusively send packets over the listed port.
