DescriptionThis articles gives the rules when creating VLAN and VDOM interface assignment
VLAN- VLANs can be created on any physical or aggregate (802.3ad) interfaces
- The same VLAN number cannot be configured twice on the same physical interface
- The same VLAN number can be used on different physical interfaces
- The usable VLAN ID range is from 1 to 4094
VDOM interface assignment- Two VDOMs cannot share the same interface or VLAN
- A VLAN sub-interface can belong to a different VDOM than the physical interface it is attached to.
Example of VLAN setting and VDOM assignmentVDOM "Customer1"
- physical interface port1
- VLAN10_P1 (VLAN ID 10 on port1)
- VLAN20_P1 (VLAN ID 20 on port1)
VDOM "Customer2" - physical interface port2
- VLAN10_P2 (VLAN ID 10 on port2)
VDOM "Customer3" - VLAN30_P1 (VLAN ID 30 on port1)
- VLAN30_P2 (VLAN ID 30 on port2)
