To remove a VLAN from a port or team, issue the following command:
qaucli -nic -vlandel <list_insts|ALL> <vlan_id|ALL>
where list_insts specifies the comma-separated port indices (for
example, 1,2) and vlan_id specifies a comma-separated numeric value
(for example, 1...4095 or 100,555). Use the -vlandel_preview command
to preview list indices.
To view the content of VLAN and teaming state configuration, issue the following

Using the GUI for VLANs
You can use the Team Management GUI to perform the following VLAN activities:
Adding and Configuring a VLAN
Deleting a VLAN
Viewing VLAN Statistics
Adding and Configuring a VLAN
Use the Team Management page to add VLAN on a team, either directly on an
unteamed adapter or on an unteamed adapter while configuring parameters for
the adapter’s NIC driver. Whenever a team is created, a virtual adapter is implicitly
created that becomes the default VLAN for the team. There can be only one
untagged VLAN on a team.
Multiple virtual adapters can be created on top of the teamed adapter by creating
different instances with different VLAN IDs assigned to each.
NOTE
In the preceding commands, if the state_cfg_file option is not
specified, the default file is vtstate.cfg in the installation directory.
