VLAN N
AMES
The Summit supports up to 256 different VLANs. Each VLAN is given a name that can
be up to 32 characters. VLAN names can use standard alphanumeric characters. The
following characters are not permitted in a VLAN name:
¥ Space
¥ Comma
¥ Quotation mark
VLAN names must begin with an alphabetical letter. Quotation marks can be used to
enclose a VLAN name that does not begin with an alphabetical character, or that
contains a space, comma, or other special character.
VLAN names are locally signiÞcant. That is, VLAN names used on one Switch are only
meaningful to that Switch. If another Switch is connected to it, the VLAN names have
no signiÞcance to the other Switch.
