Configuring VLAN interfaces

Overview

For hosts of different VLANs to communicate at Layer 3, you can use VLAN interfaces. VLAN interfaces
are virtual interfaces used for Layer 3 communication between different VLANs. They do not exist as
physical entities on devices. For each VLAN, you can create one VLAN interface. You can assign the
VLAN interface an IP address and specify the IP address as the gateway address for the devices in the
VLAN, so that traffic can be routed to other IP subnets.

Creating a VLAN interface

IMPORTANT:
Before creating a VLAN interface, you must create the corresponding VLAN in Network > VLAN. For
more information, see
When creating a VLAN interface, you can select to assign an IPv4 address and an IPv6 link-local
address to the VLAN interface in this step or in a separate step. If you do not select to configure an IP
address, you can create the VLAN interface, and configure an IP address for the VLAN interface by
modifying it.
To create a VLAN interface:
1. Select Network > VLAN Interface from the navigation tree.
2. Click Create to enter the page for creating a VLAN interface.
