Chapter 9 on page 93 for more details on setting up VLANs.
Name Enter up to 32 alpha numeric characters to identify this protocol based VLAN.

VLAN or select Others and type the protocol number in hexadecimal notation. For example the IP
protocol in hexadecimal notation is 0800, and Novell IPX protocol is 8137.
Note: Protocols in the hexadecimal number range of 0x0000 to 0x05ff are not allowed
to be used for protocol based VLANs.

in the Advanced Applications > VLAN screens.

Add Click Add to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses these changes

changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.

edit an existing protocol based VLAN.
