4.Click OK. The VLAN is renamed.
Synchronizing VLAN Names
VLANs with the same VLAN number can be defined with different names on different devices in the network. In addition, VLAN names can be configured in the master VLAN list. This can cause confusion when referring to a VLAN by name rather than by number. The VLAN application enables you to synchronize the VLAN names on the device with those in the master VLAN list.
When synchronizing the VLAN names on the device with those in the master VLAN list, the VLANs on the device are renamed to provide consistency with the names in the master VLAN list.
To synchronize VLAN names on the device with the master VLAN list:
1.From the VLAN Configuration dialog box, click Sync. The VLAN Synchronize dialog box opens. The VLAN Synchronize dialog box contains a list of VLANs whose local names differ from the VLAN names in the master VLAN list. The following fields appear for each VLAN:
●VLAN ID - The VLAN number (ID) for the VLAN.
●VLAN Name - The VLAN name in the master VLAN list.
