Configuring the Switch

3. Type the name (up to 12 characters, with no spaces) of a new VLAN that

you want to add.

4. Press [v] to move the cursor to the 802.1Q VLAN ID line and type in a VLAN

ID number, then press [Enter]. (This can be any number between 1 and 4095

that is not already being used by another VLAN.) Remember that a VLAN

must have the same VLAN ID in every switch in which you configure that

same VLAN.

5. Press [S] (for S

ave). You will then see the VLAN Names screen with the

new VLAN listed.

6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 to add more VLANs. Remember that you will be

allowed to add only as many VLANs as you specified in the Total Number

of VLANs field on the VLAN Support screen (see step 4 on page 6-57).

7. Return to the VLAN Menu to assign ports to the new VLAN(s) as described

in the next section, “Adding or Changing a VLAN Port Assignment”.
