How to configure VLANs on AN-220/520 routers

  1. Log in to the local user interface and navigate to AdvancedVLANs.

  2. Click the Add VLAN button.

  3. Enter a VLAN ID between 1 and 4095.

  4. Enter a meaningful Name.

  5. If desired, click the icon to configure Interzone Forwarding (previously InterVLAN routing). This allows communication between client devices connected to the VLANs. Do not use this feature if security between VLANs is a concern.

    Select which VLANs to forward data TO, and the VLANs to receive data FROM. Then click Apply.

    Note: You must enable this feature on each VLAN that you want to communicate with each other.

  6. Enable Device Management on VLANs that should have access to the router interface.

  7. Set each LAN port as Tagged, Untagged, or Excluded.

    • Untagged – Network frames that are unaware they are part of a VLAN. Untagged traffic is usually the default VLAN of the router.

    • Tagged – Network frames assigned to a specific VLAN. When you create a new VLAN, it's almost always tagged.

    • Excluded – The port is not a member of a specified VLAN.

      Note: Ports can only have one VLAN set as Untagged.

  8. Click Apply.
