Configuring VLANs on the Switch
NOTE
On the BlackDiamond 10K switch, the 10 Gbps module must have the serial number 804405-00-09 or higher to
support untagged frames. To display the serial number of the module, issue the
show slot <slot_number>
command.
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 on the same virtual router.
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.
NOTE
Beginning with ExtremeWare XOS 11.2, the software supports using IPv6 addresses, in addition to IPv4 addresses.
You can configure the VLAN with an IPv4 address, IPv6 address, or both. See
Chapter 24 for complete information
on using IPv6 addresses.
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 on the switch, configure the default iproute for virtual router VR-Mgmt .
NOTE
See Chapter 23 for information on adding secondary IP addresses to VLANs.
VLAN Configuration Examples
NOTE
To add an untagged port to a VLAN you create, you must first delete that port from the
default vlan
. if you
attempt to add an untagged port to a VLAN prior to deleting it from the default VLAN, you see the following error
message:
Error: Protocol conflict when adding untagged port 1:2. Either add this port as
tagged or assign another protocol to this VLAN.
