NOTE:
•
The Ethernet II encapsulation format is used here. Besides the Ethernet II encapsulation format, Ethernet
also supports other encapsulation formats, including 802.2 LLC, 802.2 SNAP, and 802.3 raw. The
VLAN tag fields are added to frames encapsulated in these formats for VLAN identification.
• For a frame with multiple VLAN tags, the device handles it according to its outer-most VLAN tag and
transmits its inner VLAN tags as payload.
VLAN types
You can implement VLANs based on the following criteria:
• Port
• MAC address
• Protocol
• IP subnet
• Policy
• Other criteria
NOTE:
•
The switching engine on a WX3000E wireless switch supports only port-based VLAN, MAC-based
VLAN, and protocol-based VLAN.
• You can configure these types of VLANs on a port at the same time. When determining to which VLAN
a packet passing through the port should be assigned, the device looks up the VLANs in the default
order of MAC-based VLAN, protocol-based VLAN, and port-based VLAN.
Configuring basic VLAN settings
Follow these steps to configure basic VLAN settings:
To do… Use the command… Remarks
Enter system view system-view —
Create VLANs
vlan { vlan-id1 [ to vlan-id2 ] |
all } Optional
Use this command to create VLANs in bulk.
Enter VLAN view vlan vlan-id
Required
By default, only the default VLAN (VLAN 1)
exists in the system.
If the specified VLAN does not exist, this
command creates the VLAN first.
Configure a name for the
VLAN
name text
Optional
By default, the name of a VLAN is its VLAN
ID. For example, VLAN 0001.
Configure the description of
the VLAN
description text
Optional
By default, the description of a VLAN is its
VLAN ID. For example, VLAN 0001.
