CONFIGURING VIRTUAL LANS

 

This chapter contains detailed descriptions of common management

 

tasks for Virtual LANs (vLANs) connected to the 7600 Card. Please see

 

“Virtual LANs in the 7600 Card” on page 12-18 for general background

 

material concerning vLANs and how they are defined in the 7600 Card.

 

Connecting local Fast Ethernet segments to a vLAN over ATM is

 

accomplished by connecting them to the 7600 Card bridge and ensuring

 

that there is an internal ATM connection to an ELAN. For general

 

information about bridges see “Bridges in the 7600 Card” on page
