fields, see Showing a VLAN Brief on page 146.
Assigning a Name to the VLAN
This step is optional, however, most organizations prefer to identify their VLANs by an
organizational name rather than by a number. Use the vlan name command in VLAN
database submode of Privileged Exec.
vlan name vlanid name
In the following example, VLAN 85 is assigned the name of sales.
(SafeGuardOS) (Vlan)#vlan name 85 sales
(SafeGuardOS) (Vlan)#exit
The show vlan brief command no longer displays the system-generated name of
VLAN0085 for VLAN 85, but instead displays sales.
(SafeGuardOS) #show vlan brief
VLAN ID Name Type IP Addr/MaskLen Ports(active/total)
------- --------------- ------- ------------------ ------------------
1 Default Default 0/50
85 sales Static 0/0
