Figure 74: BVLAN Provisioning Window
In the BVLAN provisioning window, the selected devices automatically appear in the Available
devices table. You can provision BVLANs only on BlackDiamond 20K series switches running
ExtremeXOS 12.4 or higher. Devices that do not support BVLANs are greyed-out in the BVLAN
Provisioning window.
You can expand the list of items in the Available devices table by selecting a group from the Show
devices in box.
If you have selected one or more links to add to the BVLAN, the links appear in the Selected links
table. A link represents the two ports on the devices on either side of the link. Note that user-defined
links to nodes or clouds are not displayed in the table of available links.
2 Click one of the devices to view the Available ports table for the device.
3 For each port or link you want to add to the BVLAN, select the port and click the Add tagged or
Add untagged button.
4 Edit the values in the Tag and Name fields for the new BVLAN.
5 When you have finished configuring the BVLAN, click the Create BVLAN button to start the
validation and deployment process. The Progress and Results window is displayed, as shown in
Figure 75.
