VLANs

You cannot add a port to a VLAN:

If you attempt to add a port to a VLAN and get an error message
similar to

localhost:7 # config vlan marketing add port

1:1,1:2

ERROR: Protocol conflict on port 1:5

you already have a VLAN using untagged traffic on a port. Only one
VLAN using untagged traffic can be configured on a single physical
port.

VLAN configuration can be verified by using the following command:

show vlan

The solution for this error is to remove ports 1 and 2 from the VLAN
currently using untagged traffic on those ports. If this were the
“default” VLAN, the command would be

localhost:23 # config vlan default del port

1:1,1:2

which should now allow you to re-enter the previous command
without error as follows:

localhost:26 # config vlan red add port

1:1,1:2

VLAN names:

There are restrictions on VLAN names. They cannot contain
whitespaces and cannot start with a numeric value unless you use
quotation marks around the name. If a name contains whitespaces,
starts with a numeric, or contains non-alphabetical characters, you
must use quotation marks whenever referring to the VLAN name.
