Network-wide VLAN Membership Visibility
The VLAN Manager provides a comprehensive view of all the VLANs on your network. The VLAN
Manager’s main view shows you a summary of all VLANs on your network, either by switch or by
VLAN.
Figure 43: Viewing VLANs by switch or by device in the VLAN Manager
By selecting an individual VLAN you can see all the devices and ports that are included in the VLAN.
By selecting an individual device, you see all the VLANs on the device, along with information about
the tag, IP address, protocol, and the ports that belong to each VLAN. You can also view similar
information about the VLANs on a device from the VLAN tab of the Device Properties display for the
device.
A Topology View with VLAN information displayed shows you, for a given VLAN, the devices on the
map that have the VLAN configured, and the links that connect the VLANs on those devices. Figure 44
shows an example of the display for a selected VLAN.
By default, VLAN information is not shown in the normal view of a topology map. To view VLAN
information on a map you must enable the VLAN information display:
1 From the Display menu, select VLAN Information. This displays the VLAN field on the Topology
map Toolbar.
NOTE
The VLAN field displays all VLANs on any link shown on the map. It does not necessarily display all VLANs on
the devices on the map.
