104 CHAPTER 5: VLAN COMMANDS
3Com recommends that you do not use the name default. This name is
already used for VLAN 1. 3Com also recommends that you do not
rename the default VLAN.
You cannot use a number as the first character in a VLAN name. 3Com
recommends that you do not use the same name with different
capitalizations for VLANs. For example, do not configure two separate
VLANs with the names red and RED.
VLAN names are case-sensitive for RADIUS authorization when a client
roams to a wireless LAN switch. If the WX switch is not configured with
the VLAN the client is on, but is configured with a VLAN that has the
same spelling but different capitalization, authorization for the client fails.
For example, if the client is on VLAN red but the WX switch to which the
client roams has VLAN RED instead, RADIUS authorization fails.
Examples — The following command assigns the name marigold to
VLAN 3:
WX4400# set vlan 3 name marigold
success: change accepted.

set vlan port on page 104
set vlan port Assigns one or more network ports to a VLAN. You also can add a virtual
port to each network port by adding a tag value to the network port.
Syntax —
set vlan vlan-id port port-list [tag tag-value]
vlan-id — VLAN name or number.
port port-list — List of physical ports.
tag tag-value — Tag value that identifies a virtual port. You can
specify a value from 1 through 4095.
By default, no ports are members of any VLANs. A wireless LAN switch
cannot forward traffic on the network until you configure VLANs and add
network ports to the VLANs.
Access — Enabled.
