Frequently Asked Questions

How do I ensure high bandwidth connectivity between groups?

Use Link Aggregation Groups (LAGs). LAGs can join up to four member ports and provide increased bandwidth or fault tolerance.

What is the primary purpose of VLANs?

VLANs are logical subgroups within a LAN that combine stations and devices into a single broadcast domain, improving network efficiency and security.

How many VLAN IDs can the device support?

The device supports mapping of 4094 VLAN IDs to a maximum of 64 usable VLANs.

What is 'Trust Mode' for QoS settings?

Trust Mode determines the egress queue based on predefined packet fields. Options include None, CoS (IEEE802.1p), or DSCP.
