Description

VlanId

Specifies the VLAN ID in the range of 1 to 4059. By default, VLAN IDs 1 to 4059 are configurable and the system reserves VLAN IDs 4060 to 4094 for internal use. On switches that support the vrf-scaling and spbm-config-mode boot configuration flags, if you enable these flags, the system also reserves VLAN IDs 3500 to 3998. VLAN ID 1 is the default VLAN and you cannot create or delete VLAN ID 1.

SlppEnable

Activates SLPP on the selected VLAN.

The SLPP packet transmission and reception process is active only if you enable the SLPP operation. If you disable the SLPP operation, the following occurs:

  • the system sends no SLPP packets

  • the system discards received SLPP packets

The default is enabled.
