Two "new" entry blocks (the manual provides no discussion/reason for or example of proper configuration) on the "Port PVID Configuration" page allow for id'd VLANs to be added for VLAN Membership and VLAN Tag.  I'm looking for clarification on what each drop down menu provides for.

There ia an on-line help which is more informative on every config page - very useful:

So the purpose of the "VLAN Tag" column on the "Port PVID Configuration" page of the web gui is to retag frames leaving that port?  If left blank all frames leaving the port would be untagged?

No, then there won't be no frames flowing out - the port won't be a member of a VLAN.

Look, I do admit the example shown in the documentaiton is misleading at least, if not worse ... The usual difference between the "VLAN Member" and the "VLAN Tag" should be essentially the one VLAN run on a port untagged, and that is also what the PVID is set to. A more useful example would be smething like this:

g1 PVID 1 VLAN Member 1,5,10,20,30,40,60 VLAN Tag 5,10,20,30,40,60    <<<< VLAN 1 untaged, all other tagged

g2 PVID 5 VLAN Member 1,5,10,20,30,40,60 VLAN Tag 1,10,20,30,40,60    <<<< VLAN 5 untaged, all other tagged 

g3 PVID 30 VLAN Member 1,5,30 VLAN Tag 1,5     <<<< VLAN 30 untaged, all other tagged

The better view for configuring the tagged and untagged VLAN membership would be (you guessed it) the config under "VLAN Membership".
