VLAN MACADDRESS
Syntax

type macaddress
Parameters
vid
Specifies a VLAN identifier in the range of 2 to 4094. VID 1 is
reserved for the Default_VLAN. You can specify only one VID.
The VID of a VLAN must be unique in a network, unless a VLAN
spans multiple switches, in which case its VID should be the same
on all switches on which the VLAN resides. For example, to create
a VLAN that spans three switches, you assign it the same VID
value on each switch.
name
Specifies a name of up to 20 characters for the VLAN. The first
character of the name must be a letter; it cannot be a number.
VLANs are easier to identify if their names reflect the functions of
their subnetworks or work groups (for example, Sales or
Accounting). A name cannot contain spaces or special characters,
such as asterisks (*) or exclamation points (!). A name must be
unique on the switch for a VLAN that is only on one switch. A VLAN
that spans multiple switches must have the same name on each
switch.
Mode
VLAN Configuration mode
Description
Use this command to create a MAC address-based VLAN. You can create
only one VLAN at a time.
After creating a VLAN, use “SWITCHPORT ACCESS VLAN” on page 318
to add MAC addresses to it and “VLAN SET MACADDRESS (Port
Interface Mode)” on page 333 to assign the address to egress ports.
