Static Virtual LANs (VLANs) 
Configuring VLANs 
■  Changing the Primary VLAN selection (See “Changing the Primary VLAN” 
on page 2-31.) 
■  Enabling or disabling dynamic VLANs (Refer to  chapter 3, “GVRP” .) 
1.  From the Main Menu select: 
2. Switch Configuration 
8. VLAN Menu … 
1. VLAN Support 
You will then see the following screen: 
Figure 2-12.  The Default VLAN Support Screen 
2.  Press 
[E] (for Edit), then do one or more of the following: 
•  To change the maximum number of VLANs, type the new number 
(1 - 256 allowed; default 8). 
•  To designate a different VLAN as the Primary VLAN, select the Primary 
VLAN field and use the space bar to select from the existing options. 
(Note that the Primary VLAN must be a static, port-based VLAN.) 
•  To enable or disable dynamic VLANs, select the GVRP Enabled field 
and use the Space bar to toggle between options. (For GVRP informa-
tion, refer to 
chapter 3, “GVRP” .) 
Note  For optimal switch memory utilization, set the number of VLANs at the 
number you will likely be using or a few more. If you need more VLANs later, 
you can increase this number, but a switch reboot will be required at that time. 
3.  Press [Enter] and then [S] to save the VLAN support configuration and return 
to the VLAN Menu screen. 
If you changed the value for Maximum VLANs to support, you will see an 
asterisk next to the VLAN Support option (see below).
