NETGEAR 8800 User Manual • You can disable the default VLAN; ensure that this is necessary before disabling the default VLAN. • You cannot disable the management VLAN. • Although you can remove ports from a disabled VLAN, you cannot add ports to a disabled VLAN or bind Layer 2 protocols to that VLAN. When you attempt to add ports or bind L2 protocols to a disabled VLAN (for example, the VLAN Accounting), the system returns a message similar to the following: VLAN accounting is disabled. Enable VLAN before adding ports. To disable a VLAN, issue the following CLI command: disable vlan After you have disabled a VLAN and want to re-enable that VLAN, use the following CLI command: enable vlan VLAN Configuration Examples Note: To add an untagged port to a VLAN you create, you must first delete that port from the default vlan. if you attempt to add an untagged port to a VLAN before deleting it from the default VLAN, you see the following error message: Error: Protocol conflict when adding untagged port 1:2. Either add this port as tagged or assign another protocol to this VLAN. The following modular switch example creates a port-based VLAN named accounting: create vlan accounting configure accounting ipaddress 132.15.121.1 configure default delete port 2:1-2:3,2:6,4:1,4:2 configure accounting add port 2:1-2:3,2:6,4:1,4:2 Note: Because VLAN names are unique, you do not need to enter the keyword vlan after you have created the unique VLAN name. You can use the VLAN name alone (unless you are also using this name for another category such as STPD, in which case NETGEAR recommends including the keyword vlan). The following stand-alone switch example creates a port-based VLAN named development with an IPv6 address: Chapter 9. VLANs | 249
