Create/ View VLAN

The Create/View VLAN menu, displayed in Figure 27, is used to create a new VLAN. The default value is that all ports belong to one VLAN. You can create up to eight separate

VLANs. Ports can belong to two VLANs at the same time. Each VLAN is a broadcast domain. If you have created a trunking group, you must include the entire trunk group in the

VLAN.

New VLAN Name

Is the name of the VLAN you are creating. All VLANs must have a unique name.

Port #

Is the number of the port. The numbers on the panel match the ports on the DES-3224. Some ports are combined. For example, ports 1 and 3 are shown as “Port 1/3”. Ports that are grouped together must be part of the same VLAN.

TrunkGroup

This field identifies the trunk group that the port has been assigned to. The field is open if the port has not been assigned to a Trunk Group.

Status

The status field can be either available or selected. Available indicates that the port is available for inclusion in a VLAN. Selected indicates the port has been assigned to a VLAN.
