6.3.2 Modify the Network VLAN Link Configuration
Once Next is clicked, the VLAN links (and the physical links that they go over) can be added, changed, or removed. This is
done with the Modify Links form, as shown in the following figure.
TABLE 6-4 Create VLAN Net Form
Column Description
Working
Nodes
Nodes that are to be included in the Network VLAN. Nodes not in the original working nodes can
be included in a VLAN by following an existing or newly created link to a new node. This is not
recommended, though, as the auto-selected VLAN ID and VLAN Name may clash with entries
already on these new nodes. To add or delete nodes, select Edit List.
Vlan Name The name for the Network VLAN. This is usually descriptive text and includes the VID. The default
is Vlan and a number selected by the AlliedView NMS.
Vlan ID (VID) The VLAN ID number. This VID will be applied to each device VLAN interface during creation.
subNet If this Network VLAN is to be IP-based, enter the subnetwork and the mask bitset, such as
172.16.32.0/24. If this field is left blank, an island-based Network VLAN is being created.
Next If there are Working Nodes and at least the Vlan and VID fields are filled, clicking this button goes to
the next form. (The Back and Finish buttons are always disabled in this initial form.)
Cancels Dismisses the form and saves no data.
