Gigabit Ethernet Smart Managed Plus Switches Note: To delete a VLAN, select the check box for the VLAN and click the Delete button. Add Tagged or Untagged Ports to an 802.1Q-Based VLAN After you define a VLAN ID using the advanced 802.1Q VLAN option (see Create 802.1Q-Based VLANs in an Advanced Configuration on page 33), you must add ports to the VLAN. While you add ports to a VLAN, you can specify whether the ports must be tagged or untagged. Port tagging allows a port to be associated with a particular VLAN and allows the VLAN ID tag to be added to data packets that are sent through the port. The tag identifies the VLAN that must receive the data. By default, all ports are untagged. To add tagged or untagged ports to an 802.1Q-based VLAN: 1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch. You can use a WiFi or wired network connection, or connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable. 2. Launch a web browser. 3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch. If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the Switch Using a Web Browser on page 16. The login window opens. 4. Enter the switch password. The default password is password. The password is case-sensitive. The Switch Information page displays. 5. Select VLAN > 802.1Q > Advanced > VLAN Configuration. The Advanced 802.1Q VLAN Status page displays. The menu on the left displays more options. 6. Select VLAN Membership. Use VLANS for Traffic 35 Segmentation User Manual
