VLAN Creation - CLI Interface


From EXEC Privilege mode, use the configure command to enter Global Configuration mode. Use the interface vlan vlan-id command to create the new vlan. Enter a description for the VLAN, if desired.

FTOS# configure FTOS(conf)# interface vlan 10 FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)# description string FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)# 

Use the tagged interface interface number command to assign the vlan as tagged to specificed interfaces.

Use the untagged interface interface number command to assign the vlan as untagged to specificed interfaces.

FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)# tagged interface tengig 0/2 FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)# untagged interface tengig 0/3 FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)# 

Assign an IP address to the VLAN using the ip address address/mask command. Then enable the interface with no shutdown.

FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)# ip address 192.168.1.1 /24 FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)# no shutdown FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)#
