CREATE VLAN PORTPROTECTED
Syntax
create vlan=name vid=vid portprotected
Parameters
vlan Specifies the name of the new protected ports
VLAN. The name can be from one to fifteen
alphanumeric characters in length. The name should
reflect the function of the nodes that will be a part of
the protected ports VLAN (for example,
InternetGroups). The name cannot contain spaces or
special characters, such as an asterisk (*) or
exclamation point (!).
vid Specifies a VID for the new protected ports VLAN.
The range is 2 to 4094. This number must be unique
from the VIDs of all other tagged, untagged, and
port protected VLANs on the switch.
Description
This command is the first step to creating a protected ports VLAN. This
command assigns a name and VID to the VLAN. The second step is to
specify an uplink port and the port groups using ADD VLAN GROUP on
page 463.
Example
The following command creates a protected ports VLAN called
InternetGroups and assigns it a VID of 12:
create vlan=InternetGroups vid=12 portprotected
