Type (VLAN Mode)

Either

allOpen

or

allClosed

. VLANs in allOpen

mode share a single address table for all configured
VLANs. In allClosed mode, each VLAN has its own
unique address table. Standard bridging rules apply
based on the table addresses that are assigned to the
specific VLAN. Router port IP interfaces require
allClosed mode.

VID

Unique, user-defined integer (VLAN ID) that identifies
this VLAN. It is used by management operations. You
can assign or modify a VID that is associated with a
static VLAN; you cannot modify the VID selected
automatically after you define a router port IP interface,
nor can you change the VID of the default VLAN. The
default VLAN requires a VID of 1.

Whether the VLAN aware mode (tagging mode) is

allPorts

taggedVlanPorts

. The default for

CoreBuilder 3500 Release 2.0 or later is

allPorts

;

allPorts

is also the default as of CoreBuilder 9000

software Release 3.0. The value

taggedVlanPorts

is

a compatibility mode for VLANs configured prior to
CoreBuilder 3500 Release 2.0 and for VLANs configured
on CoreBuilder 9000 Layer 3 modules prior to
CoreBuilder 9000 Release 3.0.
