IP Station VLAN Configuration Guide

This guide is applicable to INCA stations only. Turbine stations are not VLAN aware, and may only be connected to the Access VLAN.

This guide is applicable for situations where the Network Administrator has configured an Access VLAN and a Voice VLAN, and expects that the IP Station shall connect to the Voice VLAN. In this case with Access and Voice VLANs, all non-VLAN aware equipment will be connected to the Access VLAN, and this may cause the IP Station to be isolated from the server and other Stations.

Information Required

Before beginning, ensure you have the correct details for the VLANs required, i.e.

Access VLAN - 100

Voice VLAN - 120

Obtain these from the Network Administrator and substitute the correct details in this page as you go along.

Configuration steps

In Stationweb, navigate to the Advanced Network tab, followed by VLAN. For firmware 2.11 and higher, you will need to enable Advanced Configuration mode.

Configuration is performed in 2 steps.

First, assign VLAN configurations to ports and then assign Ports to VLANs.

Assign VLAN configurations

In the Port Specific VLAN Rules and tagging options, set the following;

• IP Station
  • VLAN ID to the Voice VLAN - 120
  • VLAN Priority to 7
  • Sending Filter to Members
• LAN
  • VLAN ID to the Access VLAN - 100
  • VLAN Priority to 1
  • Sending Filter to All
  • Acceptance Filter to All
• AUX
  • VLAN ID to the Access VLAN - 100
  • VLAN Priority to 1
  • Sending Filter to Members
  • Acceptance Filter to All

Press SAVE VLAN SETTINGS

Assign Ports to VLANs

In the Add Ports to a VLAN section, set the following;

• IP Station Membership - Member, Egress tagging - Remove tag
• LAN Membership - Member, Egress tagging - Keep tag
• AUX Membership - Not Member
• VLAN ID - Voice VLAN 120

Then press ADD VLAN

436.333x436.333px

Then set the following;

• IP Station Membership - Not Member
• LAN Membership - Member, Egress tagging - Remove tag
• AUX Membership - Member, Egress tagging - Remove tag
• VLAN ID - Access VLAN 100

Then press ADD VLAN

In the Remove VLAN by ID, enter VLAN ID 1 and press Remove VLAN.

Finalizing configuration

Change the Enable VLAN setting from No to Yes and click SAVE VLAN SETTINGS.

Ensure you have correctly set all attributes, so that the configuration matches the image here.

Press Apply Settings to enable the settings. You will need to then connect to the unit via it's Voice VLAN.

If you need the device to collect a new IP Address from the DHCP Server, Navigate to System Recovery and perform a Full Reboot. This should be performed instead of Apply Settings.

Recovery

If the station is uncontactable after configuration, then perform a Factory Reset on the device and configure again.

But what if...

The Network Administrator has defined the switch port to be a Trunk port, and the device connected to the AUX port is not VLAN aware?

Then set the following;

• IP Station Membership - Not Member
• LAN Membership - Member, Egress tagging - Keep tag
• AUX Membership - Member, Egress tagging - Remove tag
• VLAN ID - VLAN 100

Then press ADD VLAN

The Network Administrator has defined the switch port to be a Trunk port, and the device connected to the AUX port is VLAN aware and will be configured to it's VLAN?

Then set the following;

• IP Station Membership - Not Member
• LAN Membership - Member, Egress tagging - Keep tag
• AUX Membership - Member, Egress tagging - Keep tag
• VLAN ID - VLAN 100

Then press ADD VLAN

In both these additional cases, there is no change to the IP Station VLAN configuration.
