Field Description
VLAN ID The menu includes the VLAN ID for all VLANs configured on the device. To view or configure settings for a VLAN, be sure to select the correct VLAN from the menu.
Interface Select the interface for which you want to display or configure data. Select All to set the parameters for all ports to same values.
Status The current participation mode of the interface in the selected VLAN. The value of the Status field differs from the value of the Participation field only when the Participation mode is set to Auto Detect. The Status is one of the following:
  • Include: The port is a member of the selected VLAN.
  • Exclude: The port is not a member of the selected VLAN.
Participation The participation mode of the interface in the selected VLAN, which is one of the following:
  • Include: The port is always a member of the selected VLAN. This mode is equivalent to registration fixed in the IEEE 802.1Q standard.
  • Exclude: The port is never a member of the selected VLAN. This mode is equivalent to registration forbidden in the IEEE 802.1Q standard.
  • Auto Detect: The port can be dynamically registered in the selected VLAN through GVRP. The port will not participate in this VLAN unless it receives a GVRP request. This mode is equivalent to registration normal in the IEEE 802.1Q standard.
