Important Considerations
Before configuring your VLAN you must strictly follow the scenario:
1. Set the VLAN mode to tagged.
2. Set the server ports (see Server Port chapter in this manual).
3. Set the tagging ports (see ISVLAN chapter in this manual).
4. Configure the new VLAN.
5. Configure the management VLAN.
Virtual LANs can be used to limit the broadcast domain and to establish secure virtual
workgroups. The following parameters are used within the VLAN commands.
• run – indicates that only the currently running configuration is changed. Changes are not
restored after a reset.
• nvram – indicates that only the configuration stored in non-volatile memory is changed.
Changes do not take effect until a warm or cold reset.
• all – indicates that both the currently running configuration and the non-volatile
configuration is changed. The changes take effect immediately and are restored after a reset.
Viewing the VLAN Mode
get-vlan-mode
get-vlan-mode {run|nvram}
Example
SYS_console>get-vlan-mode run
Runtime VLAN mode is disabled
SYS_console>
Setting the VLAN Mode
set-vlan-mode
Three modes are available:
vbc
,
tag
or
none
. The modes are mutually exclusive (i.e. only one
mode can be defined for running session). The default mode is
none
.
set-vlan-mode <database> <VLAN state>
[arg #0] database type - either {run|nvram|all}
[arg #1] VLAN state: either {vbc|tag|none}
Example
SYS_console>set-vlan-mode run tag
Set run VLAN mode tag – OK
SYS_console>
