3.3.3. VLAN

Those interfaces that physically exist but are not part of the configuration are indicated with a minus
"-" symbol at the left. These will be deleted after the configuration is activated. If a deleted interface
in the interface list is to be restored, this can be done with the undelete command:
gw-world:/> undelete EthernetDevice <interface>
Individual interface details can be displayed, for example for the interface if1, with the command:
gw-world:/> show EthernetDevice if1

The set command can be used to control an Ethernet interface. For example, to disable an interface
lan, the following command can be used:
gw-world:/> set EthernetDevice lan -disable
To enable the interface lan:
gw-world:/> set EthernetDevice lan -enable
To set the driver on an Ethernet interface card the command is:
gw-world:/> set EthernetDevice lan EthernetDriver=<driver>
For example, if the driver name is IXP4NPEEthernetDriver for the bus, slot, port combination 0, 0,
2 on the wan interface, the set command would be:
gw-world:/> set EthernetDevice lan
This command is useful when a restored configuration contains interface names that do not match
the interface names of new hardware. By assigning the values for bus, slot, port and driver of a
physical interface to a logical interface in the confguration, the logical interface is mapped to the
physical interface. However, this mapping must be done before the configuration is activated.

3.3.3. VLAN
Overview
Virtual LAN (VLAN) support in NetDefendOS allows the definition of one or more Virtual LAN
interfaces which are associated with a particular physical interface. These are then considered to be
logical interfaces by NetDefendOS and can be treated like any other interfaces in NetDefendOS rule
sets and routing tables.
VLANs are useful in several different scenarios. A typical application is to allow one Ethernet
interface to appear as many separate interfaces. This means that the number of physical Ethernet
