Using the BayStack 450 10/100/1000 Series Switch
3-44 309978-D Rev 01
VLAN Configuration Menu
The VLAN Configuration Menu (Figure 3-17) allows you to select the appropriate
screen to configure up to 64 VLANs (VLAN 1 is port-based, by default). You can
configure as many as 63 protocol-based VLANs, with up to 15 different protocols.
The number of different protocols you can configure depends on the number of
hexadecimal values (PID values) associated with the protocol type (some protocol
types use more than one PID value, see
Table 3-15 on page 3-50).
When you create VLANs, you can assign various ports (and therefore the devices
attached to these ports) to different broadcast domains. Creating VLANs increases
network flexibility by allowing you to reassign devices to accommodate network
moves, additions, and changes, eliminating the need to change physical cabling.
See “IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Workgroups” on page 1-50 for detailed information
about configuring VLANs.
Choose VLAN Configuration (or press v) from the Switch Configuration Menu to
open the VLAN Configuration Menu.
