Sample VLAN Configuration
The following steps provide a quick tutorial that will create VLAN 255 on a stack configuration that
includes four switches. Also included are steps to define a VLAN description, IP router interface, and
static switch port assignments.
Note. Optional. Creating a new VLAN involves specifying a VLAN ID that is not already assigned to an
existing VLAN. To determine if a VLAN already exists in the switch configuration, enter show vlan. If
VLAN 255 does not appear in the show vlan output, then it does not exist on the switch. For example,
-> show vlan
stree mble
vlan admin oper 1x1 flat auth ip ipx tag name
+------+--------+-------+----------+------+----+-----+-----+---------+
1 on off on on off off off off VLAN 1
2 on off on off off off off off VLAN 2
3 on off off off off off off off VLAN 3
4 on off off on off off off off VLAN 4
5 on off on on off off off off VLAN 5
1 Create VLAN 255 with a description of Finance IP Network using the vlan command. For example:
-> vlan 255 name “Finance IP Network”
2 Define a IP router interface, named Finance, using the ip interface command to assign an IP host
address to VLAN 255 that will enable routing of IP traffic to other IP router VLANs. For example:
-> ip interface Finance address 21.0.0.10 vlan 255
3 Assign switch ports 2 through 4 on switch 3 in the stack to VLAN 255 using the following command:
-> vlan 255 port default 3/2-4
Note. Optional. To verify the VLAN 255 configuration, use the show vlan command. For example:
-> show vlan 255
