Usage Guidelines

The PVLAN is a framework that links network and subscriber VLAN (Virtual LAN)s; it is not an actual VLAN.

A private VLAN name must begin with an alphabetical character and may contain alphanumeric characters and underscores ( _ ), but it cannot contain spaces. The maximum allowed length for a name is 32 characters. For private VLAN naming guidelines and a list of reserved names, see Object Names.

If no VR is specified, the PVLAN is created in the default VR context.

Example

The following example creates a PVLAN named "companyx":

create private-vlan companyx
