Optional 
By default, the VLAN interface 
is enabled. In this case, the 
VLAN interface’s status is 
determined by the status of the 
ports in the VLAN, that is, if all 
ports of the VLAN are down, 
the VLAN interface is down 
(disabled); if one or more ports 
of the VLAN are up, the VLAN 
interface is up (enabled). 
If you disable the VLAN 
interface, the VLAN interface 
will always be down, regardless 
of the status of the ports in the 
VLAN.  
 
 
The operation of enabling/disabling a VLAN’s VLAN interface does not influence the physical status of 
the Ethernet ports belonging to this VLAN.
