The following table describes the commands available for VLAN interface management. You
must use the
configure terminal command to enter the configuration mode before you
can use these commands.
description Sets the description of the interface. You may use 0 - 511 alphanumeric
characters, underscores (
_), or dashes (-), but the first character cannot
be a number. This value is case-sensitive.
profile_name The DHCP pool name.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Table 22 Command Summary: VLAN Interface Profile
COMMAND DESCRIPTION
[no] interface virtual_interface Enters configuration mode for the specified interface. Use
the no command to remove the specified VLAN interface.
vlanid <1..4094> Sets the interface’s VLAN identification number.
[no] ip address ip_address netmask Sets the interface’s IP address and netmask address.
Use the no command to remove these values from this
interface.
[no] ip address dhcp [metric <0..15>] Sets the interface to use the DHCP to acquire an IP
address. Enter the metric (priority) of the gateway (if any)
on this interface. The NXC decides which gateway to use
based on this priority. The lower the number, the higher
the priority. If two or more gateways have the same
priority, the NXC uses the one that was configured first.
mtu <576..1500> Sets the maximum size of each data packet, in bytes, that
can move through this interface. If a larger packet arrives,
the NXC divides it into smaller fragments.
no mtu Disables the mtu feature for this interface.
[no] ip gateway gateway [metric
<0..15>]
Enter the IP address of the gateway. The NXC sends
packets to the gateway when it does not know how to
route the packet to its destination. The gateway should be
on the same network as the interface.
Also enter the metric (priority) of the gateway (if any) on
this interface. The NXC decides which gateway to use
based on this priority. The lower the number, the higher
the priority. If two or more gateways have the same
priority, the NXC uses the one that was configured first.
join <interface_name> <tag|untag> Links the VLAN to the specified physical interface and
also sets this interface to send packets with or without a
VLAN tag.
no join <interface_name> Disassociates the specified physical interface from the
VLAN.
upstream <0..1048576> Sets the maximum amount of traffic, in kilobits per
second, the NXC can send through the interface to the
network.
no upstream Disables the upstream bandwidth limit.
downstream <0..1048576> Sets the maximum amount of traffic, in kilobits per
second, the NXC can receive from the network through
the interface.
no downstream Disables the downstream bandwidth limit.
