When a PC is connected to the AUX port of an IP Station, all data traffic to and from the PC goes via the IP station. When dowloading large amount of data to the PC one can experience choppy audio in the station, or in worst case the station might reset.

PC connected to the AUX port of the IP station

By default all traffic from the LAN port goes to both the CPU of the station, and to the AUX port. In the other direction the traffic from the AUX port goes to both the CPU and the LAN port. When downloading huge amount of data this might result in overload of the CPU.

By using the VLAN settings in the station, it is possible to route traffic from the AUX port directly to the LAN port.


Configuration

Log on to the web interface of the station. Select Advanced Network -> VLAN.

First step is to add a VLAN LAN and AUX as members. Here VLAN Id 10 is used as an example:

Add VLAN for LAN and AUX


First step is to add a VLAN with IP station, LAN and AUX as members. Here VLAN Id 11 is used as an example:

Add VLAN for IP station, LAN and AUX


Specify VLAN rules, and Enable VLAN.

Save VLAN settings

Apply VLAN settings

Final settings:

The VLAN Id is not important as long as it is two different ID’s
