untagged commands in INTERFACE conguration mode (Conguring VLAN Membership). Physical Interfaces and port channels can be
members of VLANs.
NOTE: You can assign a static IP address to default VLAN 1 using the ip address command. To assign a dierent VLAN ID to
the default VLAN, use the default vlan-id vlan-id command.
Following table lists out the VLAN defaults in Dell Networking OS:

Default VLAN
When an Aggregator boots up, all interfaces are up in Layer 2 mode and placed in the default VLAN as untagged interfaces. Only untagged
interfaces can belong to the default VLAN.
By default, VLAN 1 is the default VLAN. To change the default VLAN ID, use the default vlan-id <1–4094> command in
CONFIGURATION mode. You cannot delete the default VLAN.
Port-Based VLANs
Port-based VLANs are a broadcast domain dened by dierent ports or interfaces. In Dell Networking OS, a port-based VLAN can contain
interfaces from dierent stack units within the chassis. Dell Networking OS supports 4094 port-based VLANs.
Port-based VLANs oer increased security for trac, conserve bandwidth, and allow switch segmentation. Interfaces in dierent VLANs
do not communicate with each other, adding some security to the trac on those interfaces. Dierent VLANs can communicate between
each other by means of IP routing. Because trac is only broadcast or ooded to the interfaces within a VLAN, the VLAN conserves
bandwidth. Finally, you can have multiple VLANs congured on one switch, thus segmenting the device
Interfaces within a port-based VLAN must be in Layer 2 mode and can be tagged or untagged in the VLAN ID.
VLANs and Port Tagging
To add an interface to a VLAN, it must be in Layer 2 mode. After you place an interface in Layer 2 mode, it is automatically placed in the
default VLAN. Dell Networking OS supports IEEE 802.1Q tagging at the interface level to lter trac. When you enable tagging, a tag
header is added to the frame after the destination and source MAC addresses. The information that is preserved as the frame moves
through the network. The below gure shows the structure of a frame with a tag header. The VLAN ID is inserted in the tag header.
