Specifications

Port Group ID: The Group ID field provides a reference to this grouping of ports to be used in other parts of the router configuration. For example, this ID is referenced in
the Local IP Networks configuration to attach this logical group of Ethernet ports with a network configuration. Use a simple short text phrase to describe this group, such
as "main", "guestports", "backup_wan", etc. This must be unique.
Select one or more ports to create a port group that you can subsequently attach to a network in the Local Network Editor. Double-click on any of the Ethernet ports
shown on the left in the Available section to move them to the Selected section on the right (or highlight a port and click the + button). To deselect an Ethernet port,
double-click on an interface in the Selected section (or highlight the port and click the – button).
VLAN Interfaces
A virtual local area network, or VLAN, functions as any other physical LAN, but it enables computers and other devices to be grouped together even if they are not physically
attached to the same network switch.
To enable a VLAN, select a VID (virtual LAN ID) and a group of Ethernet ports through which users can access the VLAN. Then go back up to the Local Network Editor to
attach your new VLAN to a network. To use a VLAN, the VID must be shared with another router or similar device so that multiple physical networks have access to the one
virtual network.
Click Add to create a new VLAN interface.
