Creating An Ethernet Port Policy - Symbol WS5000 series Reference Manual

Note Before configuring an Ethernet policy, the administrator must determine if
either of the ports are to be configured as "trunk ports". If so, they must be
configured on the switch first. Otherwise, the Ethernet policy configuration will not
allow VLAN discovery or mapping of WLANs to VLANs.

4.4.4.1 Creating an Ethernet Port Policy

The default recommended Ethernet port configuration in the wireless switch has Ethernet ports (1) and (2) on
different subnets. Ethernet port (1) supports the WLAN infrastructure (access ports and associated MUs) and
Ethernet port (2) provides connectivity to the wired LAN infrastructure (the primary VLAN ID should always be
mapped to Ethernet port (2) in this configuration).
To create an Ethernet Port Policy, follow these steps:
1. From the WS5000 Series Switch GUI main window, click Create > Ethernet > New Policy. The system
launches the Ethernet Port Policy Wizard.
