Transparent LAN Support
Transparent LAN Support (TLS) supports the VLAN group rather than an individual VLAN. The TLS
service provided is associated with a single transparent VLANs that represents all the VLAN in a
group. When Transparent LAN Support (TLS) is assigned to a Virtual Fabric VLAN, the ports that are
tagged to TLS allow you to configure multiple cTags.

Configuration requirements for VLAN Manager
Before you can manage VLANs with VLAN Manager, you must complete the following tasks:
• Make sure that the discovery process has been run. Discovery captures configuration
information from IronWare OS products and places that information in the Management
application database. Refer to
Chapter 3, “Discovery” for details on running discovery.
• Make sure the VLAN Manager privilege is in your Management application user role or account
if you need to use VLAN Manager.
• If you want to view VLAN connectivity in the Layer 2 topology, make sure Foundry Discovery
Protocol (FDP) or Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is enabled on the devices on the
network.
