ifconfig(1M)

to configure a VLAN virtual device, for example:

The output of

ifconfig -a

on a system having VLAN devices

ce123000

and

ce224000

:

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.

# ifconfig ce123000 plumb up
