Hi

Can i move a physical interface to a VLAN interface without haveing to rebuild all the settings the interface already have including DHCP, policies, routes, etc.?

Thank in advance

Depending on what you meant by "move". If you're changing just IP/subnet, you can remove it from the phy interface then reconfigure it at a VLAN. Then after that, you can move DHCP interface, etc., which were bound to the phy int, to the VLAN int.

Hi Toshi

What i meant is to convert a physical interface to a VLAN interface without having to rebuild everything on that interface (DHCP, reservations, routes, policies, etc)

short answer == NO

You will have to tear all items out ( DHCP SERVER , policies,etc in order to make it a tagged interface )

Same procedure as every time:

create the VLAN interface

backup the config

edit the backup file, replacing most occurrences of the physical interface name with the VLAN name

restore the config file, will reboot
