create vman

create vman [vman-name | vman_list] {learning-domain} {vr vr_name}

Description

Creates a VMAN.

Syntax Description


`vman-name`	Specifies a VMAN name using up to 32 characters.
`vman_list`	Specifies the VMAN tag range or VMAN Tag List (Ex: 2-4 or 2,3).
learning-domain	Specifies that this VMAN is a learning domain, which supports inter-VMAN forwarding.
vr	Specifies a virtual router.
`vr_name`	Specifies a virtual router name. Note: User-created VRs are supported only on the platforms listed for this feature in the Switch Engine 32.2 Feature License Requirements document. On switches that do not support user-created VRs, all VLANs are created in VR-Default and cannot be moved.

Default

N/A.

Usage Guidelines

For information on VMAN name requirements and a list of reserved keywords, see Object Names. You must use mutually exclusive names for:

VLANs
VMANs
IPv6 tunnels

The keyword learning-domain enables you to create a VMAN that serves as a learning domain for inter-VMAN forwarding.

If you do not specify the virtual router, the VMAN is created in the current virtual router. After you create the VMAN, you must configure the VMAN tag and add the ports that you want.

Example

The following example creates a VMAN named "fred":

create vman fred
