give you more choices or an error message.

(Vlan Manager Command Set)
There is a smaller set of keywords available for use with the vlan 33 name syntax. This is because the
command becomes more specialized as more keywords are added. From the choices shown on the screen,
you can enter a hex value, a text string enclosed in quotes (" ") or a text string without quotes. In this case,
the name selected for the VLAN includes spaces so you should use the syntax enclosed in quotes.

At the command prompt, enter the name of the VLAN enclosed in quotes, followed by a space and a
question mark.
-> vlan 33 name "test vlan 2" ?

syntax is complete. At this point when you press Enter, the command will be issued.
Note. Optional. To verify that the command was accepted, enter the show vlan command. The display is
similar to the one shown here.
-> show vlan
