Configuring VLANs on the Switch
ExtremeWare XOS 10.1 Concepts Guide 71
Configuring VLANs on the Switch
This section describes the commands associated with setting up VLANs on the switch. Configuring a
VLAN involves the following steps:
1 Create and name the VLAN.
2
Assign an IP address and mask (if applicable) to the VLAN, if needed.
NOTE
Each IP address and mask assigned to a VLAN must represent a unique IP subnet. You cannot
configure the same IP subnet on different VLANs.
NOTE
If you plan to use this VLAN as a control VLAN for an EAPS domain, do NOT assign an IP address to
the VLAN.
3 Assign a VLANid, if any ports in this VLAN will use a tag.
4 Assign one or more ports to the VLAN.
As you add each port to the VLAN, decide if the port will use an 802.1Q tag.
5
For management VLAN, configure the default iproute for virtual router VR-0.
VLAN Configuration Examples
The following modular switch example creates a port-based VLAN named accounting, assigns the IP
address 132.15.121.1, and assigns slot 2, ports 1, 2, 3, and 6, and slot 4, ports 1 and 2 to it:
create vlan accounting
configure accounting ipaddress 132.15.121.1
configure default delete port 2:1-2:3,2:6,4:1,4:2
configure accounting add port 2:1-2:3,2:6,4:1,4:2
NOTE
Because VLAN names are unique, you do not need to enter the keyword
vlan
after you have created
the unique VLAN name. You can use the VLAN name alone.
The following stand-alone switch example creates a tag-based VLAN named video. It assigns the
VLANid 1000. Ports 4 through 8 are added as tagged ports to the VLAN.
create vlan video
configure video tag 1000
configure video add port 4-8 tagged
The following stand-alone switch example creates a VLAN named sales, with the VLANid 120. The
VLAN uses both tagged and untagged ports. Ports 1 through 3 are tagged, and ports 4 and 7 are
untagged. Note that when not explicitly specified, ports are added as untagged.
