VLAN Commands
Use the commands in this chapter to configure virtual local area networks (VLANs) that conform to
IEEE 802.1Q. The three major sections in this chapter are:
• Virtual LAN (VLAN) Commands
• Protected-Port (PVLAN) Commands on page 147
• VLAN-Stacking Commands on page 150
Virtual LAN (VLAN) Commands
In SFTOS 2.3.1, the aoCEst OEubg oucommand (see interface vlan on page 129) is the starting point for
VLAN configuration. Execute the command from the Global Config mode.
Executing the aoCEst OEubg oucommand creates a new VLAN if the identified VLAN ID does not
already exist; otherwise, the command selects an existing VLAN. Then, in either case, the command
invokes the Interface VLAN mode, in which you have access to VLAN configuration commands for
the specified VLAN.
Note: You can also configure VLANs with bulk configuration commands. See interface
range on page 91.
