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.
Tagged VLAN Settings
VLAN ID: Enter the VLAN ID for the new VLAN.
VLAN Name: Enter the VLAN name.
Management
Click the drop-down list and select Enabled to allow
VLAN:
access to the switch management page through the
new VLAN. If you want to restrict management
access through this VLAN, select Disabled.
Note: By default, the default VLAN VID 1 is set as the
Management VLAN.
In the sections Static Tagged, Static Untagged, and Not Member, you
can add the type of VLAN ports to add to the new VLAN (Tagged or
Untagged) and assign ports that are not members (Forbidden) of the new
VLAN.
Tagged/Untagged/Not Member VLAN Ports
On a port, the tag information within a frame is examined when it is
received to determine if the frame is qualified as a member of a specific
tagged VLAN. If it is, it is eligible to be switched to other member ports of
the same VLAN. If it is determined that the frame's tag does not conform
to the tagged VLAN, the frame is discarded.
Since these VLAN ports are VLAN aware and able to read VLAN VID tagged
information on a frame and forward to the appropriate VLAN, typically
tagged VLAN ports are used for uplink and downlink to other switches to
carry and forward traffic for multiple VLANs across multiple switches.
