ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide

configure vman add ports
configure vman <vman-name> add ports [ all | <port_list> ] {untagged |
tagged | nobroadcast }
Description
Adds one or more ports in a vMAN.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
If you do not specify a parameter, the default value is untagged.
The vMAN tunnel begins at the ingress, or customer access, port and terminates at the egress, or trunk,
port. Traffic flows from the egress trunk port onto the network thereafter without the vMAN tag.
Ensure that all the switch-to-switch ports in the vMAN tunnel are configured as tagged ports. Configure
the vMAN ingress, or customer access, port as an untagged port (although this port does accept tagged
packets). You must configure the vMAN tunnel egress, or trunk, port as an untagged port so that the
vMAN header is stripped from the frame.
NOTE
You must configure the vMAN tunnel egress, or trunk, port as untagged so that the vMAN header is stripped from
the frame.
The vMAN must already exists before you can add (or delete) ports: use the
create vman
command to
create the VLAN. vMAN ports can belong to load-sharing groups.
The Extreme Networks default Ethernet type for vMAN is 088a8.
You cannot configure Connectivity Fault Management (CFM) on ports added to the vMAN.
