The Switch tab screen is displayed below:
Figure 12-69: LAN Hardware Ethernet Switch Screen – Switch Tab
The Switch tab screen displays the hardware switch ports properties. The switch ports are
physical sockets on the device to which different cables connect. The table in this screen
consists of a list of all available ports, their status, and the VLANs of which they are
members. Untagged packets (packets without a VLAN tag) that arrive at a port are tagged
with the VLAN number that appears under the Port VLAN Identifier (‘PVID’) column.
To edit the configuration of a port:
1. Click a connected port's Edit icon, the Port Settings screen appears.
Figure 12-70: Port Settings Screen

packets with the port's VLAN header.
b. If the 'Tagged (Add VLAN Header)' option is selected, in the ‘Default VLAN ID’
field, enter the port's VLAN identifier.
