CLI Command Modes

config-vlan Mode

Use this mode to configure normal-range VLANs (VLAN IDs 1 to 1005) or, when VTP mode is
transparent, to configure extended-range VLANs (VLAN IDs 1006 to 4094). When VTP mode is
transparent, the VLAN and VTP configuration is saved in the running configuration file, and you can
save it to the switch startup configuration file by using the copy running-config startup-config
privileged EXEC command. The configurations of VLAN IDs 1 to 1005 are saved in the VLAN database
if VTP is in transparent or server mode. The extended-range VLAN configurations are not saved in the
VLAN database.

Enter the vlan vlan-id global configuration command to access config-vlan mode:

Switch(config)# vlan 2000

Switch(config-vlan)#

The supported keywords can vary but are similar to the commands available in VLAN configuration
mode. To display a comprehensive list of commands, enter a question mark (?) at the prompt.

Switch(config-vlan)# ?

For extended-range VLANs, all characteristics except the MTU size must remain at the default setting.

To return to global configuration mode, enter exit; to return to privileged EXEC mode, enter end. All
the commands except shutdown take effect when you exit config-vlan mode.

VLAN Configuration Mode

You can use the VLAN configuration commands to create or modify VLAN parameters for VLAN IDs
1 to 1005.

Enter the vlan database privileged EXEC command to access VLAN configuration mode:

Switch# vlan database

Switch(vlan)#

The supported commands can vary depending on the version of software in use. To display a
comprehensive list of commands, enter a question mark (?) at the prompt.

Switch(vlan)# ?

To return to privileged EXEC mode, enter the abort VLAN configuration command to abandon the
proposed database. Otherwise, enter exit to implement the proposed new VLAN database and to return
to privileged EXEC mode. When you enter exit or apply, the configuration is saved in the VLAN
database; configuration from VLAN configuration mode cannot be saved in the switch configuration
file.
