Abstract
A networking device includes a chassis, a port located on the chassis, a port configuration display located on the chassis, and a plurality of port configuration buttons located on the chassis. A port configuration engine is included in the chassis and is coupled to each of the port, the port configuration display, and the plurality of port configuration buttons. The port configuration engine is configured to provide a current Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) assignment for the port for display on the port configuration display. When the port configuration engine determines that a first port configuration button of the plurality of port configuration buttons has been actuated at least once, the port configuration engine modifies the current VLAN assignment for the port to provide a modified VLAN assignment for the port, and provides the modified VLAN assignment for the port for display on the port configuration display.
