Prosafe Plus GS116Ev2 VLAN trunking
Hi, I would really appreciate help finding the name for the feature and where I can read regarding configuration.
I require to set up VLAN trunking, forwarding the tag from source to destination and not removing.

Is this done by adding multiple VLAN membership to a single port? Is this feature availalbe?
Thanks again for your help.
Hi Kc1
You have to first configure the Switch to use 802.1Q Advanced VLAN, once you do this you should be able to see the Untag and Tag

HI Manlymanagement,
Welcome to our community!
To set up a VLAN trunking in our GS116E you are right you have to add the VLANs to VLAN Membership, please find below the three steps required:
- Create the VLANs
- Use VLAN Memberships to add the VLANs to the Trunk Port ( you have to mark them with T)
- Check that the PVID for the trunk port is 1 ( this is the native VLAN)
Moreover see an example in the following link
Hope that it helps.

XavierLL in the link that you gave, the example shows Tagging the connection/'trunk' between the 2 switches. However, Prosafe Plus GS116Ev2 firmware does not seem to support marking ports as tagged or untagged, nor is there any way to set the PVID
...or am I missing something?
