1-7
Default Level
2: System level
Parameters
text: VLAN name, a string of 1 to 32 characters. Spaces and special characters can be included in the
name.
Description
Use the name command to configure a name for the current VLAN.
Use the undo name command to restore the default name of the VLAN.
The default name of a VLAN is its VLAN ID, VLAN 0001 for example.
When 802.1X or MAC address authentication is configured on a switch, you can use a RADIUS server
to issue VLAN configuration to ports that have passed the authentication. Some servers can send IDs
or names of the issued VLANs to the switch. When there are a large number of VLANs, you can use
VLAN names rather than VLAN IDs to better locate VLANs.
Examples
# Configure the name of VLAN 2 as test vlan.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] vlan 2
[Sysname-vlan2] name test vlan
shutdown
Syntax

Default Level
2: System level
Parameters
None
Description
Use the shutdown command to shut down a VLAN interface.
Use the undo shutdown command to bring up a VLAN interface.
By default, a VLAN interface is up except when all ports in the VLAN are down.
You can use the undo shutdown command to bring up a VLAN interface after configuring related
parameters and protocols for the VLAN interface. When a VLAN interface fails, you can shut down the
interface with the shutdown command and then bring it up with the undo shutdown command. In this
way, the interface may resume.
