Chapter 4 – Configuring VLANs
PVID (Native VLAN)
The Port VLAN Identifier (PVID) or native VLAN specifies the VLAN id
associated with untagged (and 802.1p priority tagged) frames received on this port.
Note:
If the VLAN configured as the PVID does not exist in the “Configure VLANs”
menu, the switch will automatically create and use it. IGMP will automatically be disabled for
that VLAN. If it is desirable for IGMP to be used on that VLAN, it can be created in the
“Configure VLANs” menu and IGMP enabled.
PVID Format
This parameter specifies whether frames transmitted on the native VLAN are to be
sent tagged or untagged.
VLAN Summary Menu
The VLAN Summary menu is accessible from the Virtual LANs menu. This menu
presents configured VLANs and the ports they are available upon. Ports that are
untagged or tagged members of the VLAN are shown under the appropriate
“Untagged Ports” or “Tagged Ports” column. The management VLAN (VLAN 1)
is always shown.
