Concept Guide

• Mode — VLAN assignment mode for I/O Aggregator device: Auto (port automatically added as

untagged to the default VLAN and tagged to the remainder of the VLANs) or Admin (manually

configured as to tagged or untagged to VLANs).

• Tagged — Numbers of tagged VLANs to which the port belongs

• Untagged — Numbers of untagged VLANs to which the port belongs

• Port Channel — Number of the Link Aggregation Group (LAG) to which the port belongs.

3. You can filter this list by making a selection from the Filter By menu: Internal Ports or Uplink LAG Po

128.

4. To close the VLAN Port Assignment dialog box, click Close.

Assigning Ports to a VLAN

From the VLAN Assignment section of the Switching Layer-2 page, you can view VLAN port assignments

for the I/O Aggregator device.

1. From the navigation menu, click Switching Layer-2.

The Switching Layer-2 page appears.

2. In the VLAN Assignment section, click Edit.

The VLAN Port Assignment dialog box appears.

NOTE: You can click View Current VLAN Port Assignments to view existing VLAN port

assignments.

3. In the Server Slots area, select the ports you want to configure.

4. In the Edit VLANs area, select one of the following tasks:

• Add VLANs — Select to add ports to VLANs you specify in steps 5 or 6.

• Remove VLANs — Select to remove ports from VLANs you specify in steps 5 or 6.

• Load Defaults (Auto VLAN) — Select to load default switch VLAN assignments.

• Overwrite VLAN Assignments — Select to have existing VLAN configurations are removed and

overwritten with a new set of configurations to selected ports.

5. In the Tagged VLANs box, enter the tagged VLAN numbers or range of VLAN numbers to which the

selected ports belong. You can enter a range of VLAN numbers from 1–4094. You can also enter

individual VLAN numbers and a range, for example: 5, 8, 10–20.

6. In the Untagged VLANs box, enter the untagged VLAN number to which the selected ports belong.

7. Click Apply.

A progress dialog box might appear. The Status dialog box then appears displaying the results of the

port assignments. You can click Configure Another Port to return to the VLAN Port Assignment

dialog box and configure more VLAN port assignments or click Close to return to the Switching

Layer-2 page.

Link Aggregation (LAG)

You can view and configure details for Link Aggregation Groups (LAGs) on the Link Aggregation (LAG)

section of the

Switching Layer-2 page.

In standalone, and VLT modes, all uplink ports (except port 9 in VLT mode of FN IOA and except ports 33

and 37 in VLT mode of MIOA) are configured in a single LAG (LAG 128). For FN IOA, there can be multiple

uplink LAGs in Programmable Multiplex mode and Full-switch mode.

This section displays the following two subsections:

• External Ports — The status of each LAG: Up or Down. Also displays bar graphs for the status of each

individual uplink port in the LAG.
