Table 21 Input Values for VLAN Interface Commands (continued)
LABEL | DESCRIPTION |
description | Sets the description of the interface. You may use 0 - 511 alphanumeric |
| characters, underscores (_), or dashes |
| be a number. This value is |
profile_name | The DHCP pool name. |

The following table describes the commands available for VLAN interface management. You must use the configure terminal command to enter the configuration mode before you can use these commands.
Table 22 Command Summary: VLAN Interface Profile
COMMAND | DESCRIPTION |
[no] interface virtual_interface | Enters configuration mode for the specified interface. Use |
| the no command to remove the specified VLAN interface. |
vlanid <1..4094> | Sets the interface’s VLAN identification number. |
[no] ip address ip_address netmask | Sets the interface’s IP address and netmask address. |
| Use the no command to remove these values from this |
| interface. |
[no] ip address dhcp [metric <0..15>] | Sets the interface to use the DHCP to acquire an IP |
| address. Enter the metric (priority) of the gateway (if any) |
| on this interface. The NXC decides which gateway to use |
| based on this priority. The lower the number, the higher |
| the priority. If two or more gateways have the same |
| priority, the NXC uses the one that was configured first. |
|
|
mtu <576..1500> | Sets the maximum size of each data packet, in bytes, that |
| can move through this interface. If a larger packet arrives, |
| the NXC divides it into smaller fragments. |
|
|
no mtu | Disables the mtu feature for this interface. |
[no] ip gateway gateway [metric | Enter the IP address of the gateway. The NXC sends |
<0..15>] | packets to the gateway when it does not know how to |
| route the packet to its destination. The gateway should be |
| on the same network as the interface. |
| Also enter the metric (priority) of the gateway (if any) on |
| this interface. The NXC decides which gateway to use |
| based on this priority. The lower the number, the higher |
| the priority. If two or more gateways have the same |
| priority, the NXC uses the one that was configured first. |
|
|
join <interface_name> <taguntag> | Links the VLAN to the specified physical interface and |
| also sets this interface to send packets with or without a |
| VLAN tag. |
|
|
no join <interface_name> | Disassociates the specified physical interface from the |
| VLAN. |
upstream <0..1048576> | Sets the maximum amount of traffic, in kilobits per |
| second, the NXC can send through the interface to the |
| network. |
|
|
no upstream | Disables the upstream bandwidth limit. |
downstream <0..1048576> | Sets the maximum amount of traffic, in kilobits per |
| second, the NXC can receive from the network through |
| the interface. |
|
|
no downstream | Disables the downstream bandwidth limit. |
