To add tagged ports to a VLAN, use the command:
add vlan={vlan-name|1..4094} port={port-list|all}
frame=tagged
A port can be tagged for any number of VLANs.
To add untagged ports to a VLAN, use the command:
add vlan={vlan-name|1..4094} port={port-list|all}
[frame=untagged]
A port can be untagged for zero or one VLAN. A port can be added only to the
default VLAN as an untagged port when it is not untagged for another VLAN.
A port cannot transmit both tagged and untagged frames for the same VLAN
(that is, it cannot be added to a VLAN as both a tagged and an untagged port).
To remove ports from a VLAN, use the command:
delete vlan={vlan-name|1..4094} port={port-list|all}
Removing an untagged port from a VLAN returns it to the default VLAN
unless it is a tagged port for another static VLAN. An untagged port can be
deleted from the default VLAN only when the port is a tagged port for another
static VLAN.
Ports tagged for some VLANs and left in the default VLAN as untagged ports
transmit broadcast traffic for the default VLAN. If this is not required, the
unnecessary traffic in the switch can be reduced by deleting those ports from
the default VLAN.
To change the tagging status of a port in a VLAN, use the command:
set vlan={vlan-name|1..4094} port={port-list|all}
frame=tagged
To destroy a VLAN, use the command:
destroy vlan={vlan-name|2..4094|all}
VLANs can be destroyed only when no ports belong to them.
To display the VLANs configured on the switch, use the command:
show vlan[={vlan-name|1..4094|all}]
Information that may be useful for troubleshooting a network can be displayed
with the VLAN debugging mode. This is disabled by default, and can be
enabled for a specified time, disabled, and displayed using the commands:
enable vlan={vlan-name|1..4094|all} debug={pkt|all}
[output=console] [timeout={1..4000000000|none}]
disable vlan={vlan-name|1..4094|all} debug={pkt|all}
show vlan debug
To view packet reception and transmission counters for a VLAN, use the
command (see the Interfaces chapter of the switch’s Software Reference):
show interface=vlann counter
