The VLAN Manager is an enterprise-wide application that manages all aspects of
VLANs on Extreme devices. If you run the Enterprise Manager with Administrator or
Manager access, you can:
• Create and delete VLANs
• Add or remove ports from existing VLANs
• Modify a VLAN's IP address
• Enable/disable IP Forwarding
• Create and modify the protocol filters used to filter VLAN traffic
Extreme switches support a maximum of 256 VLANs. VLANs on Extreme switches can
be created according to the following criteria:
• Physical port
• 802.1Q tag
• Protocol sensitivity using Ethernet, LLC SAP, or LLC/SNAP Ethernet protocol filters
• A combination of these criteria
In the Enterprise Manager, a VLAN is defined uniquely by its
• Name
• 802.1Q tag (if defined)
• Protocol filters applied to the VLAN
As a result, multiple switches are shown as members of the same VLAN whenever all
the above are the same.
For a more detailed explanation of VLANs, see the chapter "Virtual LANs (VLANs)" in
the Summit Switch Installation and User Guide.
