Once a CLI session on the switch is open, you must create a VLAN number and name. The command used to do this is as follows:

vlan [vlan#] name [vlan name] command

To use this command, you must be in Global Configuration mode on the switch. To enter Global Configuration mode and create VLANs, take a look at the following example:

>enable

#config terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z 1912EN(config)#vlan 2 name sales

1912EN(config)#vlan 3 name marketing 1912EN(config)#exit

Warning A created VLAN is unused until it is assigned to a switch port or ports. By default, all ports remain in VLAN 1 until the port is assigned to another VLAN.

Assigning a Static VLAN to an Interface on a 1900EN Series

You can assign each port on an interface to a VLAN by using the vlan−membership command. Unlike the Set/Clear interface, which allows you to assign and configure a VLAN to multiple ports with one command, you must configure VLANs port by port on the 1900EN series. To configure VLANs on the 1900EN series, follow these steps:

1. First you need to enter Interface Configuration mode, as shown here:

1912EN#config terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z 1912EN(config)#interface e0/2

2.Next, you need to issue the vlan−membership command. There are two options for this command:

dynamic—Allows the port to be set to a specific MAC address based on the MAC address of the end user.

static—The port number you as the administrator selects will remain the same regardless of the MAC address used by the end user of that port.

3.In the following examples we will be using static VLANs. To see how many VLANs are available to assign to an interface, use the following command:

1912EN(config−if)#vlan−membership static ? <1−1005> ISL VLAN index

4.Next, take the VLANs created in the previous two steps and assign them to Ethernet ports 4 and 5. You can only assign one VLAN per port, as shown here:

1912EN(config−if)#vlan−membership static 2 1912EN(config−if)#interface e0/4 1912EN(config−if)#vlan−membership static 3 1912EN(config−if)#interface e0/5
