Section VI: Virtual LANs

537

Description

This command is the first in the series to creating a MAC address-based
VLAN. This command assigns the VLAN a name and a VID and sets the
VLAN type. After you have initially created the VLAN with this command,
you must assign the MAC addresses. These are the source addresses of
the nodes that are to belong to the VLAN. The command for adding MAC
addresses to a VLAN is “ADD VLAN MACADDRESS” on page 534.

The final step to creating a new MAC address-based VLAN is assigning
the egress ports to the MAC addresses. The command for this is “ADD
VLAN PORT MACADDRESS” on page 535.

Examples

The following command creates a MAC address-based VLAN called Sales
and assigns it a VID of 3:

create vlan=Sales vid=3 type=macaddress
