VLAN MACADDRESS
Syntax
vlan
vid
name
name
type macaddress
Parameters
vid Specifies a VLAN identifier in the range of 2 to 4094.
VID 1 is reserved for the Default_VLAN. You can
specify only one VID.
The VID of a VLAN should be unique from all other
VLANs in a network, unless a VLAN spans multiple
switches, in which case its VID should be the same
on all switches on which the VLAN resides. For
example, to create a VLAN called Sales that spans
three switches, you would assign it the same VID
value on each switch.
name Specifies a name of up to 20 characters for the
VLAN. The first character of the name must be a
letter; it cannot be a number. VLANs will be easier to
identify if their names reflect the functions of their
subnetworks or workgroups (for example, Sales or
Accounting). A name cannot contain spaces or
special characters, such as asterisks (*) or
exclamation points (!). A name cannot be the same
as a name of an existing VLAN on the switch. A
VLAN that spans multiple switches should have the
same name on each switch.
Mode
VLAN Configuration mode
Description
Use this command to create new MAC address-based VLANs. You can
create just one VLAN at a time.
After creating a VLAN, use “VLAN SET MACADDRESS (Global
Configuration Mode)” on page 655 to add MAC addresses to it and “VLAN
SET MACADDRESS (Port Interface Mode)” on page 657 to assign the
addresses to egress ports.
Confirmation Command
