Configuring Basic Vlan Settings - HP A5120 EI Series Configuration Manual

Other criteria

NOTE:

The A5120 EI Switch Series supports port-based VLAN, MAC-based VLAN, protocol-based VLAN, and IP-based
VLAN. The port-based VLAN implementation is the basis of all other VLAN implementations. To use any other
VLAN implementations, you must configure port-based VLAN settings.

You can configure all these types of VLANs on a port at the same time. When the switch is determining which
VLAN a packet that passes through the port should be assigned to, it looks up the VLANs in the default order of
MAC-based VLAN, IP-based VLAN, protocol-based VLAN, and port-based VLAN.

Configuring basic VLAN settings

Follow these steps to configure basic VLAN settings:
To do...
Enter system view
Create VLANs
Enter VLAN view
Configure a name for the
current VLAN
Configure the description of
the current VLAN
NOTE:

As the default VLAN, VLAN 1 cannot be created or removed.

You cannot manually create or remove VLANs reserved for special purposes.

You cannot remove dynamic VLANs by using the undo vlan command.

You cannot remove a VLAN with a QoS policy applied.

After associating an isolate-user-VLAN with a secondary VLAN, you cannot add ports to, remove ports from, or
remove the VLANs. To do that, remove the association first.

You cannot remove a VLAN that is operating as a probe VLAN for remote port mirroring, or an RRPP-protected
VLAN by using the undo vlan command. To do that, remove the remote probe VLAN or RRPP-protected VLAN
configuration from it first.
Use the command...
