VLAN Settings
A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a network of devices that are joined into one broadcast domain, even if the devices are not physically connected to
each other. VLANs are useful for creating smaller networks within a larger LAN; for example, a legal department in a company might be on its own VLAN
because it has sensitive documents that only certain personnel should have access to. The smaller networks that VLANs create do not require any additional
physical resources, such as additional cabling. Your Iomega StorCenter px12-350r can be configured to support VLANs.
VLAN is configured for each NIC, but it is not supported on bonded NICs. If a NIC is bonded, you must unbond it first to configure it for a VLAN.
Adding a VLAN
1. To add a VLAN, expand the VLAN Settings section of a NIC.
2. Click Add VLAN.
3. Enter a VLAN ID value between 2 and 4094. You can enter up to 4 VLAN IDs for each NIC. A VLAN can obtain its network settings from DHCP, or you can
uncheck DHCP and enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway manually.
4. Refer to Network Settings Overview for information about jumbo frames.)
