interface vlan

interface vlan

Use the interface vlan global configuration command on the switch stack or on a standalone switch to
create or access a dynamic switch virtual interface (SVI) and to enter interface configuration mode. Use
the no form of this command to delete an SVI.

interface vlan vlan-id

no interface vlan vlan-id

Syntax Description

Defaults

The default VLAN interface is VLAN 1.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines

SVIs are created the first time that you enter the interface vlan vlan-id command for a particular VLAN.
The vlan-id corresponds to the VLAN-tag associated with data frames on an ISL or IEEE 802.1Q
encapsulated trunk or the VLAN ID configured for an access port.

Note

When you create an SVI, it does not become active until it is associated with a physical port.

If you delete an SVI by entering the no interface vlan vlan-id command, the deleted interface is no
longer visible in the output from the show interfaces privileged EXEC command.

Note

You cannot delete the VLAN 1 interface.

You can re-instate a deleted SVI by entering the interface vlan vlan-id command for the deleted
interface. The interface comes back up, but the previous configuration is gone.

The interrelationship between the number of SVIs configured on a switch or a switch stack and the
number of other features being configured might have an impact on CPU utilization due to hardware
limitations. You can use the sdm prefer global configuration command to reallocate system hardware
resources based on templates and feature tables. For more information, see the

sdm prefer

command.

vlan-id

VLAN number. The range is 1 to 4094.
