VLAN Manager dialog box - VLAN View tab

To view the VLANs or products in the VLAN View tab, complete the following steps.

1. Click the VLAN View tab in the VLAN Manager dialog box.

2. Expand the folder under the VLAN View tab, then double-click a super-aggregated VLAN to

display its port VLANs or products.

VLANs are listed by their topologically distinct broadcast domains. A VLAN that is listed several
times means that the products on which the VLAN has been configured cannot communicate
with each other. Either they are not physically connected or FDP or LLDP is not enabled on
these products. If FDP or LLDP is enabled, then each VLAN lists the products in that broadcast
domain.

3. Select a VLAN to expand the list of products listed under that VLAN. Use the Search tool to find

VLANs, products, or ports quickly.

A VLAN may be listed several times. For example, the first three VLAN1s have only one product.
Each product in each VLAN is in its own broadcast domain and either does not have
connectivity with other products or FDP or LLDP is not enabled on that product.

The fourth VLAN1 has several products listed under it. All those products are in the same Layer
2 broadcast domain.

When a port VLAN is selected, the Edit, Delete, and STP buttons become available. At this
point, you can create or modify port VLANs, delete a port VLAN, configure STP or RSTP
definitions for IronWare OS products, and configure STP, MSTP, RSTP, PVST, and RPVST
definitions for Network OS products in standalone mode.

4. Click a product under a port VLAN to select it. The interfaces on that product that belong to the

VLAN are listed in the interface list.

The list shows the following information:

Port — The interface number. This can be a port number represented as a unit, slot
number or port number, or a virtual routing interface ID.
