Web-based Configuration Guide Switch Settings

One access port can belong to only one VLAN and allow frames from this VLAN only
to pass through. This VLAN is called an access VLAN.
The frames from the access port do not carry VLAN tag. When the access port
receives an untagged frame from a peer device, the local device determines that the
frame comes from the access VLAN and adds the access VLAN ID to the frame.
Access port is connected to the endpoints.
One trunk port supports one Native VLAN and several Permit VLANs. Native VLAN
frames forwarded by a trunk port do not carry tags while Permit VLAN frames
forwarded by the trunk port carry tags. Trunk port is connected to switches.
Users can set the Permit VLAN range to limit VLAN frames that can be forwarded.
Make sure the trunk ports at the two ends of the link are configured with the same
Native VLAN.
Note
Improper configuration of VLANs on a port (especially uplink port) may cause failure to log in to the web
management system. Exercise caution when configuring VLANs.
