?? After setting up the console port, turn on the switch and press any key to view the main
menu shown below:
Figure 4: Console port displaying default settings
Default Settings:
All ports reside in the V1 group using auto-negotiation and flow control in the default
mode.
Valid Commands:
[V] Configure VLAN groups
[M] Select 10/100Mbps and half or full-duplex mode
[D] Restore the default settings
[ESC] Abort and return to the menu
[T] Performing port aggregation
Establishing a VLAN
Virtual Local Networks (VLANs) enable segmentation of the LAN without regards to
physical location. Configure the ports to reside in up to four VLANs (virtual local area
networks). Attaching the console port to a PC or any VT100 compatible unit launches a
main menu screen displayed by hitting any key. The Escape key quits the program
functions. The [V] command produces a prompt to enter the VLAN number followed by the
corresponding port(s). Use commas (,) or dashes (-) to list multiple ports, but limit the
amount of characters on the command line to 35. Follow these steps to assign ports to a
VLAN group.
?? Enter [V] from the Main Menu
?? Select a VLAN group:
?? [V1], [V2], [V3], or [V4]
?? Enter the port #.
To return to the default settings, enter [D] from the main menu. A prompt appears to verify
this action since all functions are reset to default, not just the VLAN function.
Assign each VLAN group individually and continue assigning ports until all of the ports are
assigned to at least one VLAN group. Hit the [ESC] key when done. The [ESC] key will
not return the screen to the main menu until each port is assigned.
