Field

Description

 

 

 

 

 

Delete VLAN

Allows you to delete a specified VLAN, except the assigned management VLAN

 

(see Management VLAN field). Enter the number of the VLAN you want to delete,

 

then press [Enter], or use the space bar to toggle through the selection until you

 

reach the specific VLAN you want to delete, then press [Enter].

 

The specified VLAN is deleted as soon as you press [Enter]. The software does not

 

prompt you to reconsider this action. If you delete a VLAN, all configuration

 

parameters that are associated with that VLAN are deleted also.

 

You cannot delete VLAN 1. By default, all switch ports are assigned as untagged

 

members of VLAN 1 with all ports configured as PVID = 1. See “IEEE 802.1Q VLAN

 

Workgroups” on page 1-38 for more information.
