Modifying an AutoTracker VLAN
After you set up a VLAN you can modify its Admin Status, description, rules, and the Admin
Status of each of the rules. You use the modatvl command to modify a VLAN as follows:
modatvl <Group Number>:<VLAN Number>
You must specify the Group and VLAN numbers and they must be separated by a colon. For
example, to modify the VLAN 3 in Group 4, you would specify:
modatvl 4:3
After entering a valid modatvl command a screen similar to the sample below displays:
VLAN 4 : 3 is defined as:
1. Description = AT VLAN 3
2. Admin Status = Enabled
3. Rule Definition
Rule Num Rule Type Rule Status
1 Protocol Rule Disabled
Available options:
1. Set VLAN Admin Status
2. Set VLAN Description
3. Add more rules
4. Delete a rule
5. Set rule Admin Status
6. Quit

sample shows a VLAN 3 in Group 4 with a description, “AT VLAN 3.” The VLAN is Enabled and

The following sections describe each of the six Available Options for the
