VLAN management on your storage system

You manage VLANs on your storage system using the vlan command. This command allows you to create, add interfaces to, delete, and display statistics of a VLAN.

• The VLAN command syntax
  You might need to know the syntax for the vlan command.
• Commands for creating and configuring a VLAN
  Creating and configuring a VLAN involves two commands: the vlan create command and the ifconfig command.
• Commands for adding an interface to a VLAN
  You might want to add an interface to a VLAN. If a physical interface does not belong to any VLAN, you can use the vlan create command to make the interface a member of one or more VLANs. However, if the interface is already a member of a VLAN, you must use the vlan add command to add the interface to subsequent VLANs.
• Command for deleting a VLAN
  You might want to delete one or all VLANs associated with an interface. You use the vlan delete command to delete the VLANs on an interface.
• Command for modifying VLAN interfaces
  To enable or disable GVRP on all interfaces of a network adapter, you use the vlan modify command.
• Command for displaying VLAN statistics
  The vlan stat command is used to display the statistics of network interfaces configured in VLANs on your storage system. In addition to displaying the frames received and transmitted on an interface, this command displays the number of frames that were rejected because the frames did not belong to any of the VLAN groups to which the interface belongs.
