The VLAN attributes page allows additional configurations to be defined on a per-VLAN
basis within a network policy. VLAN attributes are applied when the VLAN is defined
within an assigned port type or when the VLAN deployment option is enabled. If
dynamic VLANs are utilized, then the VLAN deployment option can be enabled within
the VLAN attributes page to apply VLAN settings. A VLAN defined within Instant Port
Profiles as Non-Forwarding will not apply VLAN attributes.
The VLAN Attributes page displays six columns:
- VLAN ID - The numerical
identification number of the VLAN
- VLAN Name - The name of the
VLAN
- IGMP Snooping VLAN Settings -
Allows the switches to identify ports to which multicast group member hosts
are attached in order to optimize the distribution of multicast traffic
- DHCP Snooping VLAN Settings -
Enables snooping of DHCP packets and creates a DHCP bindings database of IP
to MAC addresses for this VLAN
- VLAN Deployment - Allows VLAN
and VLAN attributes to be created on switches when no port types are
assigned with the defined VLAN
- Used By - How many devices
use this VLAN
