Interface VLANs:
Sub-interfacing is essentially the segmenting of a single wire, or port, into multiple IP networks.
Instead of subnetting and routing, you can create a sub-interface and then set it up as you would a standard
Ethernet interface.
To configure an Interface VLAN:
Click on the
Add
button and the following pop-up window appears:
Enter Sub-Interface number ID number (Required):
Enter the desired Sub-Interface number in the field
provided. The valid range is 0-99 and each interface must be uniquely numbered. The final Sub-Interface
name will then be in the form ethx:y where x is the root interface number and y is the sub-interface number.
Your Network Administrator should be able to provide guidance as to an appropriate value.
Enter IP Address (Required):
Enter the desired interface IP Address into this field. This address should have
been provided by your Network Administrator.
Enter Netmask:
Enter the desired Netmask for the sub interface in the field provided. Your Network
Administrator should be able to provide an appropriate number.
Click on the
Finish
button and you will be directed to the Ethernet Interface dialog window and the Interface Aliases
table will be populated with the entered data.
Reboot:
Will restart the system and apply all the settings upon reboot.
Revert:
Will revert the settings in the dialog window back to the previous saved settings.
