VLANs for Routing Interfaces
Configure VLANs to separate individual network segments from each other, for example
(e.g. individual departments of a company) or to reserve bandwidth for individual VLANs
when managed switches are used with the QoS function.
11.2.1 Port Configuration
Port Separation
Your device makes it possible to run the switch ports as one interface or to logically separ-
ate these from each other and to configure them as independent Ethernet interfaces.
During configuration, please note the following: The splitting of the switch ports into several
Ethernet interfaces merely logically separates these from each other. The available total
bandwidth of max. 1000 mbps full duplex for all resulting interfaces remains the same. For
example, if you split all the switch ports from each other, each of the resulting interfaces
only uses a part of the total bandwidth. If you group together several switch ports into one
interface, the full bandwidth of max. 1000 mbps full duplex is available for all the ports to-
gether.
