Chapter 4

Configuring VLANs

2. Use the

ifconfig(1M)

to configure a VLAN virtual device, for example:

The output of

ifconfig -a

on a system having VLAN devices

ixge123000

and

ixge224000

:

3. On the switch, set VLAN tagging and set VLAN ports to coincide with the VLANs

you’ve set up on the server.

Using the examples in Step 2, you would set up VLAN ports 123 and 224 on the
switch.

Refer to the documentation that came with your switch for specific instructions for
setting VLAN tagging and ports.
