Management VLAN Configuration
By factory default, the management VLAN is set to 100, allowing VLAN-unaware
management traffic via COLAN (MGMT) port (out-of-band only).
In the following case you may want to change the default:
If it is required to use in-band management to eliminate the need for a separate
connection to the COLAN (MGMT) port of the ML device. In this case, modify the
Management VLAN ID accordingly, and select one of the service ports as a member;
If out-of-band management traffic is tagged. In this case, modify the COLAN (MGMT)
port to be a tagged member of the Management VLAN;
If the assigned Management VLAN ID is already used in the MAN/WAN for traffic. In
this case, select a different VLAN ID for Management, equal to that used in MAN/WAN
for management purposes.
The following limitations are applied on the COLAN port/MGMT VLAN:
A single Management VLAN is allowed in Actelis systems;
Management VLAN cannot have stacked members;
COLAN can be deleted from the MGMT VLAN and must be specified in MGMT
VLAN;
MGMT VLAN = 100 is defined on all HSLs (as Tagged member) regardless of their
provisioning status (even deleted).
To edit the management VLAN:
1. In the Network Element tree, open Ethernet Bridge.
2. Open VLANs. The VLANs pane opens.
3. From the VLANs table, select the management VLAN ID.
