VLANs can be easily organized to reflect department groups (such as R&D, Marketing), usage groups (such
as e-mail), or multicast groups (multimedia applications such as video conferencing), and therefore help to
simplify network management by allowing users to move devices to a new VLAN without having to change
any physical connections.
By default, 802.1Q VLAN is disabled. With 802.1Q VLAN enabled, the VLAN VID 1 is created by default with
an empty VLAN name field and all ports are configured as “Untagged” members.
The 802.1Q VLAN configuration is accomplished in three steps:
Enabling 802.1Q VLAN function
Creating a new VID group and assigning ports as Untagged, Tagged or Not Member.
Configuring the PVID of access VLAN
Add VID: Click to create a new VID group, assigning ports from 1 to 24 as Untagged, Tagged, or Not
Member. VLAN VID is a unique number (between 1 and 4094) that indentifies a particular VLAN. A port can
be untagged in only one VID. To save the VID group, click Apply. You can also change the name according
to the desired groups.
PVID settings: Port VLAN ID (PVID) is an identification that encompasses a particular switch port’s
identification and VLAN membership. This identification is used to classify the incoming untagged frames.
Click to configure the PVID of a port.
