Entering the VLAN Submode and Configuring the VLAN
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Enters VLAN configuration submode. If the VLAN does not
exist, the system first creates the specified VLAN.
Names the VLAN. You can enter up to 32 alphanumeric
characters to name the VLAN. You cannot change the name of
VLAN1 or the internally allocated VLANs. The default value is
VLANxxxx where xxxx represent four numeric digits (including
leading zeroes) equal to the VLAN ID number.
Sets the state of the VLAN to active or suspend. While the VLAN
state is suspended, the ports associated with this VLAN are shut
down, and that VLAN does not pass any traffic. The default state
is active. You cannot suspend the state for the default VLAN or
VLANs 1006 to 4094.
(Optional)
Enables the VLAN. The default value is no shutdown (or
enabled). You cannot shut down the default VLAN, VLAN1, or
VLANs 1006 to 4094.
