GS108T and GS110TP Smart Switch Software Administration Manual To configure LACP port priority settings: 1. Select the check box next to the port to configure. You can select multiple ports to apply the same setting to all selected ports. Note: You cannot select ports that are not participating in a LAG. 2. Configure the LACP Priority value for the selected port. The field range is 0-255. The default value is 128. 3. Configure the administrative LACP Timeout value. • Long. Specifies a long timeout value. • Short. Specifies a short timeout value. 4. Click Cancel to cancel the configuration on the screen and reset the data on the screen to the latest value of the switch. 5. If you make any changes to this page, click Apply to send the updated configuration to the switch. Configuration changes take effect immediately. VLANs Adding Virtual LAN (VLAN) support to a Layer 2 switch offers some of the benefits of both bridging and routing. Like a bridge, a VLAN switch forwards traffic based on the Layer 2 header, which is fast, and like a router, it partitions the network into logical segments, which provides better administration, security and management of multicast traffic. By default, all ports on the switch are in the same broadcast domain. VLANs electronically separate ports on the same switch into separate broadcast domains so that broadcast packets are not sent to all the ports on a single switch. When you use a VLAN, users can be grouped by logical function instead of physical location. Each VLAN in a network has an associated VLAN ID, which appears in the IEEE 802.1Q tag in the Layer 2 header of packets transmitted on a VLAN. An end station may omit the tag, or the VLAN portion of the tag, in which case the first switch port to receive the packet may either reject it or insert a tag using its default VLAN ID. A given port may handle traffic for more than one VLAN, but it can only support one default VLAN ID. 3-10 v1.0, April 2010 Configuring Switching Information
