6.4 Extending Network VLANs
Once a Network VLAN is created, the general procedure for extending it is as follows:
1. Open the Network VLAN submap associated with the VLAN. This can be done by right-clicking the desired VLAN on
the main Network VLAN map and selecting Open Submap from the pop-up menu.
2. In the VLAN submap, right-click the VLAN IF from which you want to extend the VLAN, and then select Extend Vlan
from the pop-up menu. The Extend Network Vlan form will appear.
Note: You can also extend a VLAN from a particular VLAN IF by right-clicking the VLAN IF in the VLAN Interfaces table, and then
selecting Extend Vlan from the pop-up menu.
3. Select or create a link over which to extend the VLAN.
4. Create/select a new VLAN IF on the device at the other end of the selected link. This new VLAN IF will become part of
the network VLAN.
The concept behind this procedure is shown in the following figure.
