Note
To add an untagged port to a VLAN you create, you must first delete that port from the default VLAN. If you attempt to add an untagged port to a VLAN before deleting it from the default VLAN, you see the following error message:Error: Protocol conflict when adding untagged port 1:2. Either add this port as tagged or assign another protocol to this VLAN.
The following example creates a port-based VLAN named accounting:
create vlan accounting configure accounting ipaddress 132.15.121.1 configure default delete port 2:1-2:3,2:6,4:1,4:2 configure accounting add port 2:1-2:3,2:6,4:1,4:2
Note
Because VLAN names are unique, you do not need to enter the keyword vlan after you have created the unique VLAN name. You can use the VLAN name alone (unless you are also using this name for another category such as STPD or EAPS, in which case we recommend including the keyword vlan).The following stand-alone switch example creates a port-based VLAN named development with an IPv6 address:
create vlan development configure development ipaddress 2001:0DB8::8:800:200C:417A/64 configure default delete port 1-3 configure development add port 1-3
The following example creates a protocol-based VLAN named ipsales.
Slot 5, ports 6 through 8, and slot 6, ports 1, 3, and 4-6 are assigned to the VLAN. In this example, you can add untagged ports to a new VLAN without first deleting them from the default VLAN, because the new VLAN uses a protocol other than the default protocol.
create vlan ipsales configure ipsales protocol ip configure ipsales add port 5:6-5:8,6:1,6:3-6:6
The following example defines a protocol filter, myprotocol and applies it to the VLAN named myvlan. This is an example only, and has no real-world application.
create protocol myprotocol configure protocol myprotocol add etype 0xf0f0 configure protocol myprotocol add etype 0xffff create vlan myvlan configure myvlan protocol myprotocol
To disable the protocol-based VLAN (or any VLAN) in the above example, use the following command:
disable vlan myprotocol
To re-enable the VLAN, use the following command:
enable vlan myprotocol
