Modifying a VLAN interface

By modifying a VLAN interface, you can assign an IPv4 address, an IPv6 link-local address, and an IPv6 site-local address, or global unicast address to the VLAN interface, and shut down or bring up the VLAN interface.

After you modify the IPv4 address and status or the IPv6 address and status, or add an IPv6 unicast address for a selected VLAN interface on the page for modifying VLAN interfaces, you must click the correct Apply button to submit the modification.

After you change the IP address of the VLAN interface you are using to log in to the device, you will be disconnected from the device. You can use the changed IP address to re-log in.

To modify a VLAN interface:

1.From the navigation tree, select Network > VLAN Interface.

2.Click Modify to enter the page for modifying a VLAN interface.
