This is aim to create VLAN on a non-Cisco switches. Let see on how to create VLAN for D-link switch.

Let look into the D-link web management to create VLAN.

DES-3526>Configuration>VLANs>Static VLAN Entry

Click Add or Configure VLAN by VID List to add a new VLAN.

Ensure that VID is input with the desire VLAN ID. The example I given, I used VLAN 5.

The VLAN Name can be specified with any name that describe the VLAN purpose.

The desire ports that are in the VLAN 5 required to be select as Egress only and the rest will be Tag and None.

If the D-link switch required to trunk to other switches that has VLAN as well you can enable the port that is connect to the other switch. In the example I am using port 25 to connect to another switch that can be Cisco, D-link or 3Com. Port 25 I have select Tag and Egress enable.

That all that is required to enable a working VLAN.
