In this section we assume to receive a request for customers’ vlan configuration as follows.
Customer requests from port 1 to port 12 will be on vlan 180 and port 13 to port 22 will be on vlan 100, 2 port 23, 24 will be 2 port trunking.
To configure us go to VLAN> 802.1Q> Advanced> Advanced 802.1Q VLAN> Enable.
By default this time only vlan 1 and all ports will be in vlan 1.
To create a vlan, click on the VLAN Configuration and enter the VLAN ID we want to create into the free space on the right of the VLAN ID and then click Apply to save.
As required above we will create 2 vlan 100 and 180.

Next we will assign port to vlan as required above.
To perform click VLAN Membership.
We will assign port 1 to port 12 into vlan 180 by selecting vlan 180 in the VLAN Identifier and checking U (Untag) to position the empty cells below the port number.
Since 2 ports 23 and 24 are 2 trunk ports, we will tick the T (Tag) for these 2 ports in VLAN 180

Next we need to configure the PVID for ports 1 to 12 (the default PVID of the ports is 1 to match the VLAN ID).
To configure our PVID, go to the Port of PVID, select the ports we want to change the PVID, enter the number of PVID we want (PVID always matches the VLAN ID) into the box and click Apply.

Back to VLAN Membership, now that ports 1 to 12 belong to 2 vlan 1 and 180, we will select vlan 1 at VLAN Identifier and remove the U (Untag) symbols at the bottom of the ports 1 to 12 in vlan 1.
Click Apply to save.
