frame=untagged|tagged
Syntax 2
create vlan=name vid=vid taggedports=ports|ALL
untaggedports=ports|ALL
Parameters
vlan Specifies the name of the VLAN. You must assign a
name to a VLAN.
The name can be from 1 to 20 characters in length
and should reflect the function of the nodes that will
be a part of the VLAN (for example, Sales or
Accounting). The name cannot contain spaces or
special characters, such as asterisks (*) or
exclamation points (!).
The name cannot be the same as the name of an
existing VLAN on the switch.
If the VLAN is unique in your network, then the name
needs to be unique as well. If the VLAN spans
multiple switches, then the name for the VLAN
needs to be the same on each switch.
vid Specifies the VLAN identifier. The range is 2 to 4094.
You must assign a VID to the VLAN.
You cannot use the VID 1, which is reserved for the
Default_VLAN.
The VID must be unique on the switch.
If this VLAN is unique in your network, then its VID
should also be unique. If this VLAN is part of a larger
VLAN that spans multiple switches, then the VID
value for the VLAN should be the same on each
switch. For example, if you are creating a VLAN
called Sales that spans three switches, assign the
Sales VLAN on each switch the same VID value.
