same VLAN members. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plugged into the same switch physically. The 1008 switch supports both port-based and protocol-based VLANs from the web. By default, VLAN support is enabled and all ports on the switch belong to the default VLAN. The default VID is 1. NOTE: The default VLAN can’t be deleted or modified. Port-based VLANs (IEEE 802.
5.96 Basic VLAN Setting To create a VLAN and add tagged member ports: 1. From the Main Menu, select Administrator. 2. Select VLAN Configuration. 3. Click the Add button. 4.

To configure port VID settings: 1. From the Main Menu, select Tag-based (IEEE 802.1Q) VLAN page. 2. Select Port VID Settings.
Ingress Filtering Ingress filtering allows frames belonging to a specific VLAN to be forwarded if the port belongs to that VLAN. The 1008 switch has two ingress filtering rules: Ingress Filtering Rule 1: Forward only packets with VID matching this port's configured VID Ingress Filtering. Rule 2: 5.10 Drop Untagged Frame. Spanning Tree The Spanning-Tree Protocol (STP) is a standardized method (IEEE 802.1D) for avoiding loops in switched networks.
3. Review spanning tree information about the Root Bridge from the following screen.
The following table describes the Spanning Tree parameters. Parameter Description Priority You can change the priority value which is a value used to identify the root bridge. The bridge with the lowest value has the highest priority and is selected as the root. Enter a number 1 through 65535. Max Age You can change Max Age value, which is the number of seconds a bridge waits without receiving Spanning-Tree Protocol configuration messages before attempting a reconfiguration.
The following table describes the path cost and port priority. Parameter Description Port Priority You can make a port more or less likely to become the root port. Path Cost The range is 0-255, and the default setting is 128. Specifies the path cost of the port that switch uses to determine which ports are the forwarding ports. The lowest number of forwarding ports is 1, and the range is 1-65535. The default value is base don IEEE802.1D.
5.12 SNMP SNMP is a protocol that governs the transfer of information between management and agent. The 1008 switch supports SNMP V1.
