NOTE: The “i” suffix on the ports indicates that it is an internal port. A third internal port (D3i in the example) is displayed, but is nonfunctional.
- Page 12 Select VLAN Names. Add two VLANs, one for the Internet port and another for the LAN port. For example, use VLAN ID 10 with name MSM775_Int for the Internet port and VLAN ID 15 with name MSM775_LAN for the LAN port. Select Back to return to the VLAN Menu.
- Page 13 Select VLAN Port Assignment. Select Edit, and then use the arrow keys to select the DEFAULT_VLAN column of port D1i.
