VLAN Commands
Use these commands to configure IEEE 802.1Q VLAN.
 See Chapter 79 on page 303 for VLAN IP commands.
78.1 VLAN Overview
A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into
multiple logical networks. Devices on a logical network belong to one group. A device can
belong to more than one group. With VLAN, a device cannot directly talk to or hear from
devices that are not in the same group(s); the traffic must first go through a router.
 VLAN is unidirectional; it only governs outgoing traffic.
78.2 VLAN Configuration Overview
1 Use the vlan <vlan-id> command to configure or create a VLAN on the Switch.
The Switch automatically enters config-vlan mode. Use the exit command when you
are finished configuring the VLAN.
2 Use the interface port-channel <port-list> command to set the VLAN
settings on a port. The Switch automatically enters config-interface mode. Use the pvid
<vlan-id> command to set the VLAN ID you created for the port-list in the PVID
table. Use the exit command when you are finished configuring the ports.
sysname (config)# vlan 2000

sysname (config-vlan)# no untagged 5-8
sysname (config-vlan)# exit
sysname (config)# interface port-channel 5-8
sysname (config-interface)# pvid 2000
