VLAN Type and ID N/A A virtual local area network (VLAN) is a logical segment
of network users and resources grouped by function,
team, or application. This segmentation is without regard
to the physical location of the users and resources.The
user can select an appropriate VLAN (native, access or
voice) from a list read from the switch. Only the first 128
VLANs are displayed.
Native Represents the valid Native VLAN ID for ports set to the
Router for Automation and Switch for Automation role. A
native VLAN is for ports that can belong to a VLAN trunk
(a port belonging to more than one VLAN).
The Native VLAN feature is blank when Smart Port is set
to any value other than Switch for Automation and
Router for Automation, and in Offline mode.
Access Represents the valid Access VLAN ID for ports set to
Automation Device, Desktop for Automation, Phone for
Automation for Automation, Wireless, and Automation
Device with QoS role. An access VLAN is for ports that
can only belong to one VLAN.
The Access VLAN feature is blank when Smart Port is set
to Switch for Automation and Router for Automation, and
in Offline mode.

Phone for Automation role. The voice VLAN ensures that
all voice traffic has better quality of service and is not
mixed with data traffic.
The Voice VLAN feature is blank when Smart Port is set
to any value other than Phone for Automation, and in
Offline mode.
