Configure Inter-Gateway VLAN on Primary Gateway
Next, create the VLAN on the primary gateway which will be used for inter-gateway communication
and heartbeat.
To create a VLAN using the VLAN-id previously planned in the ‘Define Network IP Addressing Plan’
section and created on the Ethernet switches, use the ‘network vlan’ command as follows:
# network vlan vlan-id <vlan-id> interface eth0
Where <vlan-id> is the VLAN ID instance number between 1 and 4094 to be created atop the newly
created bonded interface, eth0. The interface created will be named vlan#, where # is the VLAN ID
instance number used, such as vlan14.
*hp-gateway1 [hp-redundant1: master] (config) # network vlan vlan-id 14 interface
eth0
*hp-gateway1 [hp-redundant1: master] (config) # show network
