VLAN Settings 1. Ensure you have set up the protected physical interface as described in “Defining the 
BSC Protected Physical Interface” on page 4-2.
2. The Enable checkbox is marked by default to make the protected VLAN available.
3. Enter the protected VLAN settings, as described below:
• Name - A unique name for the protected-side VLAN.
• VLAN ID - The VLAN identification number. The specified ID must be unique on 
the protected side of the network and in the range of 2 to 4094. The protected-
side VLAN ID you create here might match a managed-side VLAN ID to create a 
pass-through VLAN as described in Appendix A, "An Overview of Virtual LANs."
• VLAN Type - The type of VLAN to create. Currently the IEEE 802.1q VLAN 
standard is the only VLAN type supported.

physical interface. Configure these parameters as described in “Defining the BSC 
Protected Physical Interface” on page 4-2. You must enable multicast on the Protected 
Interface if you have one or more protected VLANs that use multicast.
