Windows VLAN Configuration
The term VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) refers to a collection of devices that
communicate as if they were on the same physical LAN. VLAN information
covered in this section includes the following:
 VLAN Properties
 Using the CLI for VLANs
 Using the GUI for VLANs
VLAN Properties
The VLAN protocol permits insertion of a tag into an Ethernet frame to identify the
VLAN to which a frame belongs. If present, the four-byte VLAN tag is inserted into
the Ethernet frame between the source MAC address and the length and type
field. The first two bytes of the VLAN tag consist of the 802.1q tag type; the
second two bytes include a user priority field and the VLAN identifier (VID).
For QLogic adapters, VLAN tagging is done according to the IEEE 802.1q
protocol and the process is the same whether it is a single port or a team.
Multiple VLANs can be configured over a single port or a team of ports up to a
maximum of 64 VLANs. Each VLAN is represented by a virtual network interface
that is bound to the protocols.
Using the CLI for VLANs
Use the QConvergeConsole CLI utility to view, add, and delete VLANs.
To display a list of VLANs, issue the following command:
qaucli -nic -vlanlist
To view VLAN information, issue the following command:
qaucli -nic -vlaninfo [vlan_inst|ALL]
To preview a VLAN before adding it to a port or team, issue the following
command:
qaucli -nic -vlanadd_preview
To add a VLAN to a port or team, issue the following command:
qaucli -nic -vlanadd <list_insts> <vlan_id>
where
list_insts
are comma-separated port indices (for example, 1,2)
and
vlan_id
is the comma-separated numeric value (for example, 1...4095
or 100,555). Use the
-vlanadd_preview
command to preview list indices.
