set vlan name

Creates a VLAN and assigns a number and name to it.

set vlan vlan-num name name

— VLAN number. You can specify a number from 2

through 4093.

— String up to 16 alphabetic characters long.

Defaults — VLAN 1 is named default by default. No other VLANs have

default names.

Access — Enabled.

History —Introduced in MSS Version 3.0.

Usage — You must assign a name to a VLAN (other than the default

VLAN) before you can add ports to the VLAN.

3Com recommends that you do not use the name default. This name is

already used for VLAN 1. 3Com also recommends that you do not

rename the default VLAN.

You cannot use a number as the first character in a VLAN name. 3Com

recommends that you do not use the same name with different

capitalizations for VLANs. For example, do not configure two separate

VLANs with the names red and RED.

VLAN names are case-sensitive for RADIUS authorization when a client

roams to a wireless LAN switch. If the WX switch is not configured with

the VLAN the client is on, but is configured with a VLAN that has the

same spelling but different capitalization, authorization for the client fails.

For example, if the client is on VLAN red but the WX switch to which the

client roams has VLAN RED instead, RADIUS authorization fails.

Examples — The following command assigns the name marigold to

WX4400# set vlan 3 name marigold

success: change accepted.
