How do I assign a port to multiple VLANs on WS-CE500?

[selahattin_cilek]

I am trying to configure an old but still kicking WS-CE500-24T. I am trying to do what I usually do when I an setting up a new site, ie defining VLANs and assigning ports them. I went through all the pages in the web interface but could do it. Yes, I can assign a default VLAN to each port, but just that! There is no way of assigning tagged VLANs. Now I wonder: Is that even possible with this switch? Could Cisco have done such a thing?

Thank you very much. That guide is indeed helpful.

So according to the information below, at least theoretically, if I designate a port as a "Switch Port", it will be a member of all VLANs defined on the switch and carry all frames, right?

yes looks like Trunk port.
