Synchronizing Vlan Names - Avaya P460 Manager User Manual

Synchronizing VLAN Names

VLANs with the same VLAN number can be defined with different
names on different devices in the network. In addition, VLAN names can
be configured in the master VLAN list. This can cause confusion when
referring to a VLAN by name rather than by number. The VLAN
application enables you to synchronize the VLAN names on the device
with those in the master VLAN list.
When synchronizing the VLAN names on the device with those in the
master VLAN list, the VLANs on the device are renamed to provide
consistency with the names in the master VLAN list.
To synchronize VLAN names on the device with the master VLAN list:
Avaya P460 Manager User Guide

Synchronize dialog box contains a list of VLANs whose local
names differ from the VLAN names in the master VLAN list. The
following fields appear for each VLAN:
— VLAN ID - The VLAN number (ID) for the VLAN.
— VLAN Name - The VLAN name in the master VLAN list.
