vlan
vlan <id> [<description>] |[<name> <vlan-ids>]|[range <range>]|[wired aaa-
profile <profile>]
Description
This command creates a VLAN ID or a range of VLAN IDs on the controller.
Syntax
Usage Guidelines
Use the interface vlan command to configure the VLAN interface, including an IP address. Use the vlan-
name
command to create a named VLAN to set up a VLAN pool. A VLAN pool consists of a set of VLAN IDs
which are grouped together to efficiently manage multi-controller networks from a single location.
To enable role-based access for wired clients connected to an untrusted VLAN and/or port on the controller, you
must use the wired aaa-profile parameter to specify the wired AAA profile you would like to apply to that VLAN.
If you do not specify a per-VLAN wired AAA profile, traffic from clients connected to an untrusted wired port or
VLAN will use the global wired AAA profile, if configured.
Example
The following command creates VLAN ID 27 with the description myvlan on the controller.
(host) (config) #vlan 27 myvlan
The following command associates the VLAN IDs 5, 12 and 100 with VLAN guestvlan on the controller.
vlan guestvlan 5,12,100
The following command creates VLAN IDs 200-300, 302, 303-400.

command.
Existing VLAN IDs 1
range <range> Create a range of multiple VLAN IDs by specifying the
beginning and ending VLAN ID separated by a hyphen.
For example, 55-58
2-4094 —
wired aaa-profile
<profile>
Assign an AAA profile to a VLAN to enable role-based
access for wired clients connected to an untrusted
VLAN or port on the controller. This parameter applies
to wired clients only.
Note that this profile will only take effect if the VLAN
and/or the port on the controller is untrusted. If both the
port and the VLAN are trusted, no AAA profile is
assigned.
